One hundred and eighty-eight chapters two Xiao alliance
"Summer? See you in Beijing? It seems that you have already made an appointment to meet. I'm wondering if I should also stay at your house for a few days in the summer? I really like your small courtyard." Zhou Xiaoli just smiled.
He disappeared again, and his voice changed into a strange tone.
"I'd better go see Gale first. Their English communication isn't very fluent, so I'll go and help with the translation." Hong Tao didn't know what he was doing, so he quickly used an escape technique.
"Your English isn't very good either. Let me go over and have a look. I should be fine as a translator, right?" When Zhou Xiaoli saw that Hong Tao was about to run away, she immediately followed him, and the two of them came to Gale's house together.
"Hey, we have a guest, hello, hello, you must be Hong Tao's leader. Oh, I heard Hong Tao mention it. It's so famous that it's better to meet her. She looks like a strong woman at first glance. Come and sit down." Boss Liu
While he and Gale were sitting in the living room drinking tea, when they saw Hong Tao and Zhou Xiaoli coming in, Boss Liu stood up naturally to greet the guests. He spoke in a very official tone, and he looked like someone who had seen the big world.
"Mr. Liu, you are too polite. You are a successful person with a successful career. My surname is Zhou, Zhou Xiaoli, the dawn of dawn." Zhou Xiaoli did not show weakness, her aura immediately changed, and the scene became a little more solemn.
"Oh, Miss Zhou speaks very authentic Chinese. If Hong Tao hadn't told me in advance, I wouldn't have recognized that you are a foreigner. My surname is Liu, Liu Jianqiang. Ah, Xiaomei, come down quickly. We have a guest.
,that is my daughter,
Liu Xiaomei, I am also the dawn of Xiao, you are about the same age, let’s talk more.” At this time, Hong Tao knew the full names of Liu’s father and daughter for the first time. His daughter’s name was nothing at all, quite satisfactory, but it was his own name. It was really
So inspiring.
Liu Xiaomei walked down the stairs, walked up to Zhou Xiaoli, and shook hands with each other. They got to know each other politely, and then began to greet each other, as if the Hong Tao around him was the air. No one looked at him, not even Yu Guang.
Not given.
"Brother Liu, don't cook for lunch. Gale and his family don't have anything to eat at home. He often goes to my place to eat. I make lunch for everyone. I have only eaten meat for the past two days. It makes my stomach ache.
I can't even digest it." Hong Tao hoped that they would ignore him. It would be nice if they could talk to each other, so that she wouldn't have to trouble him.
"Okay, you're tired at noon. Let's go to the city to eat in the evening. I'll treat you. I asked Mr. Gale just now and he knows there is a good restaurant." Boss Liu seemed very satisfied with Old Gale's house and was very interested.
Quite high.
At noon, Hong Tao cooked himself. He fried some Chinese dishes, made a pot of rice, and invited Old Gale and Liu's father and daughter to have a meal together. Maybe it was because they were really not used to Western food these days, so everyone wanted to have lunch.
Everything tasted delicious. In the end we had to end up running out of rice. The most popular dish was Hong Tao’s homemade braised salmon.
There are many kinds of salmon sold in Toronto's wet markets, and the prices are not expensive. And the bigger fish are relatively cheaper. But if this kind of salmon is eaten raw as sashimi, Hong Tao's stomach really can't stand it.
His stomach felt uncomfortable after eating raw and cold fish all the time. So he thought of a way to use domestic braised fish to cook this kind of fish. The result was that it tasted quite good, and this became Hong Tao's homemade dish.
"Oh, Hong Tao, your skills are really good. Nowadays, there are not many boys of your age who can cook, and even fewer who have this skill. Alas, you, Brother Liu, are the only regret in this life.
Ah, I just don’t have a son, I
I'm not taking advantage of you, this is the truth. Of course, Xiaomei is a good girl, but she is not stable without a son." Boss Liu was full of food and began to talk nonsense again. These words made Hong Tao,
Even Liu Xiaomei was not satisfied.
Hong Tao didn't have the habit of recognizing his godfather. It was okay to call him uncle or uncle. He was really not used to being someone else's son, and even using it as a metaphor was boring. Liu Xiaomei heard her father say that a daughter is not as good as a son in front of so many people. How could she
It's weird to be happy. It's hard to vent this anger on the spot. Needless to say, it has to be remembered on Hong Tao's head. Who knows that Boss Liu is using him as an analogy? Without him, this matter would definitely not happen.
Without looking at Miss Liu's eyes, Hong Tao knew that he had been shot while lying down for the nth time. The cold murderous aura had revealed how angry Liu Xiaomei was at this time. Don't worry about too many debts, don't bite too many lice, Hong Tao does it every day
I have been shot several times and have gradually gotten used to it.
The strange thing is that there is no direct confrontation between the weird-tempered Liu Xiaomei and Zhou Xiaoli. According to Hong Tao's judgment, whether Zhou Xiaoli is really jealous or jealous, at least she will not give Liu Xiaomei any good looks. It is her tradition to be yin and yang and blame others.
He is also very good at using curse words.
But when the two of them met, there was just a slight clash of auras as they looked at each other in the air, and then they actually started chatting word by word, and the conversation was very congenial. Although they couldn't hear them whispering.
What, but Hong Tao has seen that cold beauty burst into smiles more than once. Is this a case of tofu with brine? Or maybe he and Liu Xiaomei are in conflict?
After the meal, Liu Xiaomei proposed to go to the city to purchase some daily necessities, and Zhou Xiaoli naturally accompanied her there. The two of them drove away in Zhou Xiaoli's car, and the room finally became a lot calmer.
Originally, Hong Tao wanted to deliver some fresh venison to that Zhou Dajiang. He got sick last time thanks to the medicine he sent. According to the tradition of reciprocity, it was a good idea. But Zhou Xiaoli drove away and didn't want to bother Old Gale.
I had no choice but to give up on driving myself.
Boss Liu's ability to deceive people is first-rate. He saw that he couldn't communicate with Old Gale through language, but the two of them lived under the same roof. They couldn't stare at each other like this every day, so he came up with an idea.
Taught old Gale how to play Chinese chess.
Now Hong Tao had something to do. The two old men put the chessboard on the board. Hong Tao first explained the general rules to Old Gale one by one. Then he wrote English words on stickers and put them on the chess pieces so that Old Gale could recognize each one clearly.
piece.
Fortunately, Old Gale can play chess himself, so there is no problem in his understanding. Soon he will be able to basically play according to the Chinese chess patterns. As for how far his chess skills can be achieved, he has to rely on his own brain to calculate.
Well, Hong Tao can only play Chinese chess, but he can't talk about his ability.
After losing 2 games, Old Gale quit. He proposed that he could not just play Chinese chess by himself, but also let Boss Liu play chess with him. This was only fair. So Hong Tao became a chess coach again.
Turn around and teach Boss Liu the basic rules of chess.
The more you know how to do it, the more you can do. Hong Tao also knows how to play chess, and his level is similar to that of Chinese chess. So with Hong Tao’s explanation and help, Boss Liu lost 3 games in a row, and then he stopped playing.
In turn, play Chinese chess.
The two old men were having a great time. You would win two games, and you would win two games. You would give me a cigar to try, and I would smoke it for you. The more they played, the more excited they became. But Hong Tao sat aside.
, not only had to correct the wrong moves on the chessboard, but also had to be responsible for helping them translate the chat content for each other.
For a while, Old Gale talked about what he had experienced when he was a soldier, and for a while Boss Liu talked about interesting things about his business. Although it was quite attractive, Hong Tao's language skills were not very good, and ordinary life conversations were okay.
After being fooled, when it came to proper nouns and idioms in history, military and other aspects, he was blinded. He himself couldn't understand it, so he had to translate it based on the general meaning.
It was such a tiring afternoon, and my head was all turned into mush, but seeing the two old men having fun and chatting, just like two old friends, Hong Tao endured it even if he was a little tired,
Since we are kind-hearted, let’s just think of doing good deeds to accumulate virtue for the next life.
Compared with Hong Tao's dire time, Zhou Xiaoli and Liu Xiaomei had a much more relaxed afternoon. It wasn't until after 4 o'clock that the two of them returned to Old Gale's house, carrying only
My own little bag, chatting and laughing, and glowing face, it seems that I had a good time shopping in the mall. (To be continued, please search Piao Tian Literature, the novel is better and updated faster!
