Despite his age, Old Gale was in good spirits. He worked hard all morning and was not tired at all. After dinner, he took Hong Tao to the basement of their house and looked at his collection. Basically all of it was
There are all kinds of guns, the most precious of which are two smoothbore muzzle-loading guns. It is said that they are still old before World War I and can still fire normally. Finally, Old Gale showed Hong Tao his secret collection.
In a safe, eight fist-sized green grenades were neatly stacked.
"Is this a grenade? Is it real?" Hong Tao stretched out his hand out of habit.
"No, no, you can't touch this, you can only look at it. The M67 made in the United States was secretly brought back when I retired. No one else knows. This is a secret between us. You must not tell others, Yoko
No way, understand!" Old Gale grabbed Hong Tao's hand and wouldn't let him touch it.
"Oh, you are so evil. You even brought this back. Aren't you afraid of danger?" Hong Tao was very moved when he heard what the old man said. He had lost his only son and his wife also died. He was afraid of being alone.
When young people are willing to play with him, he regards himself as his friend. Sometimes old people, like children, like to tell their little secrets to their playmates.
"They are very quiet. Even if they are hit directly by a bullet, they will not explode. As long as you don't pull the small ring, they are your friends. There is a saying in the army: A grenade with the safety removed is no longer your friend.
! So don’t touch them and it’ll be fine.” Old Gale took out a grenade and placed it on the palm of his hand so that Hong Tao could look at it carefully. He also specifically pointed to the iron ring connected to the safety pin on the grenade.
"You are too crazy, but I like crazy old men. There is a proverb in China: Old men should be crazy, young men should be steady! You are in line with our Chinese customs." Hong Tao looked at the green iron lump in the old man's hand, and his calf was slightly
It's a little shaky. This thing is far from as refined as it looks in the picture. The surface is very rough. If you accidentally pick it up in the wild, you will definitely think that it is a copycat product.
"Oh, I like this proverb. It seems to make sense. Let's go up. They will be back soon. It will be troublesome for Kayla to see it. She will definitely not allow her children to stay with these things all day.
Together, women are stupid, they only use their eyes and never their brains." Old Gale put the grenade back in the safe and began to comment on her daughter-in-law. Apparently he was dissatisfied with Mrs. Bulcock for not letting Bloom join the army.
I still hold a grudge about it.
While Hong Tao and Old Gale were learning to smoke cigars in the living room, the purchasing group finally came back, seemingly victorious, because each of them looked like a porter, even Bloom's injuries and neck injuries
They are all covered with shopping bags.
Compared with Mrs. Bulcock, Zhou Xiaoli's combat effectiveness is obviously far behind. Although she also carries more than a dozen paper bags, the number and weight cannot be compared with Mrs. Bulcock. When Mrs. Bulcock puts the things
When we came down, a sofa that could comfortably accommodate 3 people was completely full.
"This is for you. Try it on and see if it fits you." After returning to her home, Zhou Xiaoli took out a gray long top for Hong Tao from a large paper bag and forced Hong Tao to put it on immediately.
"The fluff inside feels very good, what kind of leather is this?" Hong Tao took the clothes and realized that it was not a textile at all, but a leather jacket. He felt the short hair on the inside of the leather jacket while putting it on and asked.
"Do you like it? The size is quite suitable. This dress is very expensive. If it wasn't on sale, I wouldn't buy it for you." Zhou Xiaoli stood next to Hong Tao, arranging his clothes while still looking carefully at the clothes.
Possible defects.
"It's quite warm. The color is really weird. I thought it was made of fabric at first. The leather is really thick, and it doesn't have the smell of leather. It's a different smell. What kind of leather is this?"
Hong Tao thinks this leather jacket is very good, the length is right, and the outer leather is very thick and the velvet inside is very dense, unlike ordinary sheepskin or cowhide.
"I'll give you two chances to guess." Zhou Xiaoli gave up.
"Deerskin?"
"Guess again."
"Fox fur?" Hong Tao had very little knowledge in this area, so he had to try his best to guess the most expensive one, because Zhou Xiaoli mentioned just now that this dress was expensive. In Hong Tao's view, fox fur was already the most expensive symbol, and he really
I can't think of any other animal with such thick skin and such short fur.
"You are a big bastard!" Hong Tao said the names of the two animals in exchange for such a comment.
"I won't guess anymore. It doesn't matter what kind of animal it is. Anyway, it's quite comfortable for me to wear. It's soft and light, and it's so thick. Since it's a gift, I'll just eat the steamed buns for free. It's not too dark, and I don't care about any skin.
"Hong Tao raised his hands and surrendered.
"This is seal skin. The original price is more than 5,000 Canadian dollars. You can buy a good second-hand car." Zhou Xiaoli took a few steps back, stood a little further away, and looked at Hong Tao's leather jacket.
"Ah!? Will I get sick if I wear something worth tens of thousands of dollars?" When Hong Tao heard this, he immediately felt that the leather jacket on his body was a bit heavy. He likes all kinds of sports. This piece of clothing looks very casual at first glance and should not be taken for granted.
It's a formal wear, but if you wear it for hunting, Hong Tao will be heartbroken.
"It's more than 2,000 Canadian dollars after the discount. I give it to you without any payment. The winter here is very cold. The down jacket you brought is basically useless. The thick cotton jacket you bought is too heavy. If you want to stay in winter
When doing outdoor activities, you must have light and warm clothes. This kind of clothes
I also have two pieces that I bought before and they are very warm." Zhou Xiaoli knew that Hong Tao was very casual about wearing clothes. In addition to jeans and T-shirts, the most expensive clothes in his wardrobe were a leather jacket and even a suit.
I made it specially when I went abroad, but the quality was not that good either.
"It's quite comfortable, but when I think about going out in a car, I feel heartbroken." Hong Tao put on the hood of the clothes and felt the comfort of the short plush inside. He really liked this dress.
"Come on, don't cry about being poor all day long. The money earned by your small fishing gear shop is enough for you to wear clothes like this, and you still have a lot of US dollars? You are richer than me." Zhou Xiaoli rolled her eyes at Hong Tao.
"Hey, you can't compare like that. You are a capitalist and I am just a small shop owner. But I still thank you. But I don't have that much money to buy you famous brands, so I have to pay off the debt with my body. Let's go." Hong Tao became more and more angry.
I like this woman. She is very capable and considerate, and is a good candidate to be his wife. However, her identity has dispelled Hong Tao's extravagant hopes. Now he can only be the prince of hell, and it will be comfortable for a while.
"Don't make trouble, put me down... I'll invite the neighbors over for dinner tonight, it's time for us to cook... Ah!" Zhou Xiaoli was picked up by Hong Tao and walked upstairs. Although she said she was not happy at all,
But the body only twisted a few times symbolically, and it was simply because he didn't mean what he said.
Zhou Xiaoli didn't lie. In the evening, Old Gale's family came to have dinner again. Zhou Xiaoli greatly praised Hong Tao's cooking skills when they were shopping in the mall. As a result, Bloom and Qiong, who had only a piece of intestine in their stomachs, both wanted to eat.
To taste Hong Tao's craftsmanship, Zhou Xiaoli invited their family to taste the original Chinese food cooked by Hong Tao himself in the evening.
In the bedroom upstairs, Hong Tao severely punished the woman with her elbows turned outwards. She was slapped several times on the butt as a lesson for her behavior of taking work for him without her permission, but the final result was still
Hong Tao was defeated. In this kind of battle between spirit and flesh,
In confrontations, men are often completely overturned when they have gained a great advantage, and Hong Tao is no exception. Originally, he thought that he might become more aggressive after eating several meals of Canadian beef and seafood, but it was cruel.
Factual education educated him again.
He stayed in bed until 4:30 in the afternoon, and then Hong Tao had to hold his waist and move from upstairs to the kitchen. At this time, Zhou Xiaoli was humming a song and preparing dinner in the kitchen. After seeing Hong Tao's appearance, she still
