Chapter 256
"Old Zhang, this is really what your daughter-in-law married."

Old Xu whispered to Zhang Chi, and gave a thumbs up at the same time.

Zhang Chi said with a smile: "Why, are you afraid that others will hear you boasting?"

At this moment, Melika was busy with work in the room, and did not come out to chat with Zhang Chi.

Old Xu smiled and said, "Isn't that right? I just think you're a good wife."

"You can see it?" Zhang Chi laughed.

Old Xu said: "Who am I? Over the years, I have come into contact with many people, both Chinese and foreign. Those who are rich have no money, those who have money fill up those who have no money, and those who have no money pretend to be rich. I can’t count them all. But what your daughter-in-law married is really great. As the old saying goes, marrying a good wife will keep the family safe for three generations. You, have nothing to do and have fun.”

"By the way, work harder this time. My parents will come over in early July. Don't wait for the house to be built before the people arrive." Zhang Chi didn't want to talk about his wife with Lao Xu, so he started talking. Get down to business.

Old Xu said: "Don't worry, I'll recruit more people here to ensure that you will live in a new home when the time comes. But you have to get all your certificates."

This time Zhang Chi’s house is very big, it can be said that it is the largest house in the factory. Generally speaking, this kind of house is built by the American engineering team. If you don’t give you the whole seven or eight months, you don’t even want to live in a new house. inside.

Generally speaking, there are only a dozen or so Americans who build such a house. Most of the time, these people are still doing foreign work. In terms of efficiency, it seems to Lao Xu that if these people come to China, they will starve to death. Help the dog with something.

But in the hands of Lao Xu, it will definitely not take seven months. He is preparing two more teams to come in. At that time, everyone should stop resting and work as fast as possible.

The certificate that Lao Xu said is a permit, that is, if you want to build a house on the ground, you need to get the approval of the government.

With this certificate, it is legal for you to build a house.

How can this matter be so difficult for Zhang Chi, those who say that Americans don’t need relationships, the fundamental reason is that he has nothing to do, Zhang Chi still has something to do in this area, Nell, this guy’s family has been involved in politics for generations, to do something Isn't this hour at your fingertips?
"You don't have to worry about the certificate, it's all gone now, and Melika will bring it to you later," Zhang Chi said.

After hearing this, Lao Xu said: "You are really fast."

"By the way, when will people enter the venue?"

Zhang Chi asked.

Old Xu said: "I originally planned to enter the site today, but how did it come in under the light rain? Tomorrow, let them help other construction sites for another day."

Lao Xu will not waste labor here, Zhang Chi can't do it here, so everyone will go to other construction sites to support, in short, the workers cannot be rested.

It’s not old Xu Ruan, it’s that everyone came out to earn money to support their families. If you work one more day, your family’s life will be better. You really let everyone rest, but you are irresponsible to everyone.

Everyone traveled thousands of miles to the United States to work, stayed to buy a house and a car, and those who did not stay also bought a house and a car when they returned home. Everyone asked for money. Everyone followed Lao Xu to make money, not to enjoy life.

I have to say that some of the intellectuals who came to the United States were unsatisfactory, but those who came to the United States were ready to earn money to support their families, and were willing to work hard to their death. It's okay to live.

Of course, you also have to depend on your luck. Not everyone can meet someone like Lao Xu, and some of them come from China, and they are regarded as cheap labor by those Chinese who came here early with no conscience. They live a peaceful life. Slaves are no different.

People like Lu Guangming are considered good.

"I didn't expect that, you are living a fast-paced life, brother, I can't eat ashes after following behind," Lao Xu sighed.

"You are a bit ridiculous, you have been doing projects here for so many years, and your foundation is not much stronger than mine." Zhang Chi immediately gave Lao Xu a compliment.

Old Xu shook his head and said: "It's different, how many years have I spent, how many days are you now, hey".

"Why are there so many emotions today, what's wrong?" Zhang Chi was a little curious.

Old Xu said: "It's not just a few little beasts in our family. They don't study hard when they arrive at school. They mess around all day long, so they can't do anything."

Old Xu and his sons are very concerned about the education of their children. They can earn money through hard work, but their children are all American-style, obsessed with rap, walking without shape, and wearing trousers. His crotch was about to fall to the crook of his leg, which made Lao Xu almost have a heart attack.

"You have to change to a better school," Zhang Chi said.

The polarization of schools on the American side is too serious, and public schools are the happy education that some people in the country envy.

If you believe this thing, you must have a brain problem.

Happiness and education have no boundaries for most children. If you want to be happy, you must have the awareness that your children will be leeks for the rest of their lives.

If you can mix with Ivy League families in the United States, you won't have the trouble of children's education.

If you don’t believe me, go here and have a look. It’s an ordinary family whose income is even less than the middle level. Most of the children in the family are happily educated.

You look at the rich people, look at those rich people, they have to learn Chinese at a few years old, and the small schoolbags are as big as children, which is nothing new at all.

Those who work hard govern people, and those who work hard govern others.

The words of the ancestors still have a profound practical effect even now.

"We're getting ready. We can't stay in public schools anymore. After studying for a few years, the child almost forgot where the capital of China is," Old Xu said angrily.

If you want to change your school, you have to change your house, and the houses in the school district here are not cheap.

Lao Xu is busy with these things these days, busy changing houses, and connecting children with better new schools. In short, they can no longer let them fool around. Domestic gangsters can still go to the factory to make screws. They want to in the United States. It's not easy to drive screws.

"You have to think about it, if you have children soon, these things will be enough to bother you," Old Xu said to Zhang Chi.

How could Zhang Chi think about this? He has only been married for a few days now, and he is thinking about the child's schooling, which is too far away.

"It's too far," Zhang Chi said.

Old Xu stretched out his hand and patted Zhang Chi on the shoulder: "I thought the same way when I first had a child, but in a blink of an eye, these little bastards have grown up."

The two chatted for a while, when Lao Xu's cell phone rang, he took it out to look at it and said, "Can you take me to the town?"

Zhang Chi asked curiously, "What are you going to do in town?"

"The car that picked me up is here, and he doesn't know how to get there. You should take me to the town," Old Xu said.

"Call him over, let's have lunch together," Zhang Chi said.

Old Xu smiled and said: "There is still something to do. Now is the busy season, there is work everywhere, and there is no time to eat."

"I'm all ready, even the geese to be slaughtered are tied up, and you want to go too?" Zhang Chi hurriedly kept the guests, sincerely staying is not the kind of pretending to stay.

Old Xu said: "I really don't want to eat. When I start work, I have time to eat your meal. Save the goose for me to eat next time."

Zhang Chi saw that there was nothing to do, so he took the car keys and sent Lao Xu to the town.

When he arrived in the town, Zhang Chi saw a red Ford car parked on the side of the road from a long distance away, guessing it was Lao Xu's friend, so Zhang Chi drove the car over.

Lao Xu got out of the car, and without introducing Zhang Chi to his friend, he waved to Zhang Chi, and the car drove on the road.

Back home, Melika asked Zhang Chi who had entered the room: "Does Lao Xu not eat lunch?"

"Who knows, it seems that everyone is suddenly busy, and I'm the only one idle." Zhang Chi was a little helpless.

It was raining lightly outside, and Zhang Chi was fine. Let’s go out and ride a horse. In this weather, you are tossing yourself while tossing the horse. So it rained all day, and Zhang Chi and Melika stayed in the house. all day.

The next morning, as soon as the sky dawned, the light rain that had stopped overnight continued to fall. It seemed that it was clear that he wanted to feel sorry for Zhang Chi, that is, it would fall during the day and take a rest at night, so that it would rain during the day.

The rain brought up the water level of the river which was a bit dry. Zhang Chi checked the material outside and found that it was well covered by the tarpaulin. The terrain was also high when the site was selected yesterday, so he was not worried about these materials. Ingress of water.

It's raining again, and Lao Xu has to rest for another day. Zhang Chi and his wife have nothing to do. God is not strong. What can they do? They can't let God stop the rain.

Even if he had a gourd, Zhang Chi didn't have such ability.

So the two stayed in the house for another morning. In the afternoon, things came to an end, and that was to go to the bar in the town to watch the game.

It can be said that the entire ranch was mobilized. Zhang Chi drove Melika, Cannon and Brian sat in Cannon's old pickup truck. The four of them came to the town one after the other, with a time difference of about a quarter of an hour. mini bar.

Zhang Chi and Melika arrived later.

When the two pushed open the door of the small bar and walked in, the whole bar was silent for a moment, because everyone knew that Zhang Chi was married, but most people didn't know who he married, and many people had heard of Mei Li. The card is beautiful, but most cowboys don't expect Melika to be so beautiful.

Do you think Americans like to squint?No, for them, big eyes and blond hair are the look of a dream lover.It's just that the media told them that all oriental women look like this, and squinting is their standard face.

Although Melika is not blond, but Melika has a face like an ancient Greek sculpture, and it has a sense of mystery, which made the cowboys in the bar lose their voice for a while.

But soon everyone came back to their senses. Although some scum would flirt in their hearts, most of them were still normal. Melika's beauty just surprised them, and they quickly beat Zhang Chi. Say hello.

"George, I bought twenty dollars today. Don't let me down with your horse."

"I bought fifty." Another cowboy laughed and said, "It's just that the odds are a bit low and there is no excitement."

In today's two games, no matter if the silly big wood won or the big secret won, it would not be considered an upset.

The racecourse is not a fool. The results of the two horses during training have already explained everything. They can usually run extremely well. If you throw big odds on these two horses, what's the matter? I feel that I have a lot of money in my pocket and want to give it away part out?

Therefore, if you buy a big secret or a silly big wood wins alone, you will hardly make any money. The cowboys in the bar buy it just for fun and to show your support for the local horses.

Their main bet is still on other things.
