Chapter 122: A Busy Christmas
Early in the morning, Zhang Chi drove out of the ranch, and as for how Cannon spends Christmas at home, it is not his concern.
The road is not very easy to walk, because the temperature is low at this time, the road is icy and the road surface is very slippery, even if you put on snow chains, the speed of the car can not get up.
But fortunately, there are not many people on the road, and now even those who are going out for the holidays are nested in their beds at home at the moment.
When he arrived at the house of the uncle and his mother, Zhang Chi parked the car, pushed open the door and walked into the restaurant, and couldn't help but be stunned.
He saw a young girl, who was living in a restaurant, Zhang Chi suddenly felt that he had gone to the wrong door, retreated to the door and looked at the signboard, and found that he had not gone wrong, this door had been gone for more than ten years, and he would not go wrong with his eyes closed.
"That's right."
Zhang Chi pushed open the door again and walked into the restaurant.
Zhang Chi's actions amused the girl, and she said to Zhang Chi while laughing: "You are Zhang Chi, my name is Zheng Huai, and I am Zhang Wen's girlfriend."
When Zhang Chi heard Zheng Huai's introduction, he immediately reacted: "It turned out to be my sister-in-law."
As he spoke, Zhang Chi looked around.
"Zhang Wen is inside," Zheng Huai said.
At this time, Zhang Wen heard the movement and walked out of the back kitchen, and saw Zhang Chi coming, so he said hello to Zhang Chi: "Xiao Chi is here."
"You're back? What about Brother Xiaowu? "Zhang Chi is a little strange.
Zhang Wendao: "He's a little busy, and this is the time when his movie is released, and he can't leave."
At this time, Brother Xiaowu has a movie released? Not kidding, right?
When is it at this time, it's Christmas, which movie is not a movie that is being released at this time?
You must know that this time period is a popular time for American movies to be released, and it is the same as the domestic Spring Festival file, and it is impossible for any film that does not have a little strength to be released.
Hearing the news, Zhang Chi instantly felt as if his cousin had become Spielberg.
"It's not that he invested all of his money, I forgot about it all of a sudden, anyway, he invested about 100,000 yuan, he can't come back this Christmas, and the Spring Festival is also a bit dangerous," Zhang Wen said.
Oh!
Zhang Chi sighed, he didn't care too much about whether Brother Xiao Wu was good or not, he was afraid that this cousin would starve to death if he had nothing to eat outside.
Now that I heard Brother Zhang Wen say that it seems to be a good mix, I won't ask any more.
However, Zhang Chi has a question in his heart: Is the film industry really so easy to mix?
"Don't talk about it, hurry up and work," Zheng Huai said with a smile at the brothers.
Zhang Wen smiled when he heard this: "Let's go, go to work, there is a lot of work today."
"If it was less, I wouldn't come," Zhang Chi laughed and began to roll up his sleeves at the same time.
Every Christmas, the number of customers in Chinese restaurants is generally several times higher than usual, because everyone celebrates Christmas, how can any restaurant be happy to open, that is, Chinese restaurants, and some Asian restaurants will open, even if they don't want to eat Asian food today.
Like this time of the year, Uncle's restaurant is busy from half past ten to two o'clock in the afternoon, nearly twice as long as usual.
Zhang Chi received a job from his aunt and peeled potatoes!
A whole basket of potatoes, Zhang Chi sat on a stool alone and peeled them, as for Zhang Wenge, he had other jobs.
As Zhang Wen's girlfriend, Zheng Huai was originally unemployed, but as long as she is a girl with a little brain, she shouldn't be lazy at this time, even if you can't do it, you have to put on a very diligent appearance.
I won't say whether you are really diligent or fake diligent, but you have to have this attitude, and you have to let the future mother-in-law see your attitude.
Obviously, Zheng Huai is not the kind of child who comes out of the so-called daughter to enrich the family, Zheng Huai works very methodically, not only work, but also has a good temperament, at a glance, you can know that at least the family is a scholarly family, but it is not the kind of person who reads dead books.
Zhang Chi was peeling potatoes here, and his attention was attracted by the situation on the road outside.
There was a young man in his twenties at the intersection, that is, on the side of the road next to the restaurant.
There is nothing strange about young people, there are many young people on the road.
But the young man was holding a large card with curses written on it, accompanied by a picture of an ugly pig.
The young man scolded the mayor, the mayor of Folsen, that is, the number one of Folsen.
Zhang Chi didn't know how this young man was persecuted by the mayor, but this kind of thing is too normal here, not to mention a mayor, and those individuals who live in Crooked House are often scolded.
It's troublesome if you scold an ordinary person, because people will sue you, but if you scold a politician, it usually won't be a big deal.
Because those people can't deal with you, if they really care about you, he won't play politics, and the media will spray him to death.
Therefore, if you don't resist scolding, don't engage in politics, which is the lowest requirement for politicians in the United States.
This kind of thing is not said to be common, you can always see it, it was not a strange thing, this protest is like eating, where is strange.
Zhang Chi said that he was strange about what day it was, it was cold outside, he took a cup of boiling water and went out, and when he poured it into the sky, it was ice.
Thinkers
It's a rare thing to hold up a sign outside in protest on such a cold day.
Zhang Chi looked up from time to time to look through the window at the big fool outside.
If you don't look at him, there is no way, Zhang Chi can't look at his sister-in-law while peeling potatoes, then Brother Zhang Wen can't hang Zhang Chi up and smoke him to death.
"Zhang Chi, what are you looking at?"
Zheng Huai quickly discovered Zhang Chi's movements and asked curiously.
Zhang Chi said: "Look at the guys protesting outside."
"What's so good about protesting, if you go to California to live, this happens every day," Zheng Huai said with a smile.
Zhang Chi said: "There is nothing to see in protesting, but what kind of temperature is here, and he is not afraid of the cold."
Zheng Huai then remembered that this was not the temperature of California, so he glanced at the guys protesting outside and couldn't help but smile.
After the potatoes were peeled, Zhang Chi carried the potato basket back to the back kitchen, then took a broom to sweep up the potato skins and threw them into the back trash bin.
When he came out, Zheng Huai had already entered the back kitchen, and Zhang Wen sat at the dining table with a basket of onions and peeled the skin.
Zhang Chi also sat down.
"What about you, I heard from your aunt that there is a beautiful girl who gets along well with you," Zhang Wen asked.
Zhang Chi said: "You better mind yourself, I'm a lot younger than you."
Zhang Wen listened to it and smiled: "We will get married next year."
I'll go!
Zhang Chi was directly dumbfounded when he heard this, and asked, "You haven't known each other for a long time, right?" ”
It's normal to be in love here for several years, even if you live together and live in love at the same time, but someone like Zhang Wen who quickly decided to get married is a bit different.
"That's enough, it's good to get married directly while everyone is still passionate. By the way, what do you think of her? Zhang Wen asked.
Zhang Chi wanted to scold in his heart, you are going to get married here, and you still asked me how my sister-in-law was, did I say good or bad? Obviously, all you can say is good.
However, Zhang Chi's impression of Zheng Huai is really good.
Don't say anything else, just look at the work, I don't know how many girls are stronger than Zhang Chi's blind date, whether they will work, just look at the rules, like Zhang Chi has worked, at a glance, you know whether others will work, obviously, Zheng Huai is in the middle of whether he will work, he has worked, but he has not done restaurant work, and the family work must be handled easily.
"It's good, generous and steady," Zhang Chi said.
Zhang Wen listened and asked, "That's it?" ”
"And what more evaluation do you want? You are marrying a daughter-in-law and not a beauty pageant, the most important thing in marrying a daughter-in-law is not stable and generous, as the old saying goes, marry a wife and marry a virtuous, and take a concubine to ......".
"What a mess," Zhang Wen laughed.
"What about you, tell me about the girl."
Zhang Chi shook his head again and again after hearing this: "Uncle misunderstood, Merica is just my friend, and it is hard to marry a daughter-in-law like this."
"Can't afford it?"
"Don't, it's true that people don't look down on us," Zhang Chi said with a smile.
Zhang Chi found out how his aunt was like his mother, and she was very concerned about the opposite sex around her, and she couldn't get to that direction in three sentences.
"There's nothing to look down on in this thing, as long as you two think it's suitable, it's appropriate, what else is the identity, the status of the local guild is all," Zhang Wen said.
"Uh-huh!" Zhang Chi nodded to indicate that he had been taught, but he didn't listen at all.
At this time, Gu Ying, the uncle, came out of the back kitchen and gave Zhang Wen and Zhang Chi a cup of hot drink.
"Who is that man on the road?"
Gu Ying soon saw the protesters on the road.
But when Gu Ying saw the name written on the person's sign, she was immediately unhappy.
"Dawen, go and get this person away" Gu Ying frowned.
Zhang Wen glanced at it and said, "Mom, people are legal, it doesn't make sense for you to go out and drive people away."
"He's going to scold somewhere else, but not here. When we first arrived, we encountered difficulties, and we were bullied when we bought this house, but they helped us solve it. We can't help but remember the kindness of others. Forget it, Dachi, you go! ”
Gu Ying felt extremely uncomfortable.
When Zhang Chi heard this, he smiled and went out with a hot drink.
It's unreasonable to rush, so Zhang Chi is ready to persuade first, if it can't be persuaded, Zhang Chi is ready to knock it with a gourd, so that his uncle is unhappy, Zhang Chi has no choice, if there is a way, then he can't play it?
He doesn't care what kind of hatred you have with this mayor, if you change places, even if you go to the other side, it will be no problem, I persuaded you not to leave when you ran here, that is the original sin.
With a hot drink and a sip out of the door, Zhang Chi was about to walk over to the protester.
Before he had taken two steps, he heard the sound of a whining alarm.
When I turned my head, I found a police car parked next to the protester, and soon two police detectives got out of the car, good guy, Zhang Chi looked like he was still an old acquaintance, the same two who came to his house last time and said that he hunted wild animals without a license.
