The knot in Ju An's heart had been untied and he really devoted himself to the role of father. In the evening, Nini played in Ju An and Dinah's room until almost ten o'clock, and Dinah began to urge her.
Nini went to bed, while Ju An consciously held a book under his arm and took Nini's hand to Nini's room.
, lifted the blanket and let Nini lie in. Nini held the baby elephant in one hand and the giraffe in the other. She lay down happily. Ju An helped Nini tuck the blanket and began to read the story vividly.
, before she finished reading the story, Nini’s eyelids were already twitching, and she was trying hard to keep her eyes open.
When Ju An saw this, he closed the book, stretched his head under the bed and said to Nini: "Dad has seen it, there are no monsters. Nini, please go to sleep quickly."
Nini murmured vaguely: "Good night, Dad." Then she closed her eyes and quickly fell into a dream. Ju An kissed Nini's forehead and said softly: "Good night,
"Sweetheart". Then he turned off the light and closed the door gently.
When Ju An returned to the bedroom, he found that Dinah was looking at the photo album. Ju An got into the bed, stretched his head next to Dinah, and then saw all the photos of Dinah from childhood to adulthood.
Photos, pointing to a photo, Dinah said to Ju An with nostalgia: "This photo was taken by my mother when I first entered elementary school. My father was pushing me on the swing. Every time I cried, my father would
He put me on the swing and after swinging for a few times I laughed."
Ju An looked at the photo. Young Thomas was pushing a swing made of car tires, and Dinah, who was still a little baby, was holding the ropes on both sides with both hands. She smiled happily, and Thomas's face was also full of smiles, and his heart
As soon as he moved, he said to Dinah: "Then I will ask Thomas if there are any old tires at home tomorrow, and I will also make a swing for Nini."
Dinah said with a smile: "Who still uses old tires to make swings? There are children's swings sold in supermarkets. Just buy them and find a place to hang them up. And that kind of swing is only suitable for children as big as Nini.
It’s the safest.”
Ju An smiled and said: "Buy one and find a place to hang it. Wherever I can show my ability, I must make something special."
Dinah smiled and said: "Then you can make a swing frame for Nini." When Dinah mentioned Ju An, she remembered the scene when she helped Liu Chao build a barbecue table. She decided to make a swing for Nini Ranran and Tong herself.
Tong and the three little guys made a swing frame.
Ju An thought for a moment and nodded: "That's good! It just so happens that when we move to our new home, we can move in together. Then I'll think about what I want. It's best to do three, to avoid Ran Ran Tong Tong coming.
A few little guys robbed it.”
Then Ju An took out a piece of paper from the bedside table, then took a pencil and started drawing. Then he calculated how many pieces of wood were needed for the brackets and how many connectors were needed. Dinah was also there.
Helping Ju An perfect the design of the swing, the two of them also discussed from time to time how to ensure the safety of the children. A small swing kept Ju An and Dinah busy until more than one o'clock before they were satisfied with the final plan.
After settling down, the two of them turned off the lights and went to sleep.
After getting up in the morning and having breakfast, Ju An started to prepare to purchase wood and bolts. At this time, Marcos called. Come over, Dinah answered the phone and asked: "Dad! What's going on?"
.
Marcos said with a smile: "It's nothing, we just want to go over and see Nini. If you and An are not busy today, we will go there. If you are busy, we will spend two nights."
Dinah said quickly: "You're not busy! An is about to go out to purchase wood to help Nini make a swing frame."
"Has Ann set off?" Marcos asked on the other end.
Dinah replied: "Not yet, we just finished eating and Ann is getting ready to leave."
"Let An wait a moment. I'll go with him then. We'll be there soon," Marcos said anxiously.
Dinah smiled and returned: "Okay, Ann will be waiting for you at home." Before the words were finished, Marcos hung up the phone.
Dinah put down the phone and said to Ju An: "Dad said he was going to see Nini today, and he happened to go with you to purchase wood to make a swing. He asked you to wait for him at home."
After hearing this, Ju An nodded and sat back on the sofa. While watching TV, he helped Hans scratch his chin. These two little things had the same virtues as kittens, and they especially liked others to scratch their chins.
Nini was holding Teddy's big head and talking to Teddy. She didn't know what she was talking about. Not only was Teddy confused, but also Ju An, who was nearby, was confused.
When they heard the sound of cars outside the door, Ju An and Dinah walked into the yard and saw Marcos getting out of his old green pickup truck. Melina also got out from the other side.
Seeing Ju An and Dinah helping Nini out, Melina smiled and asked Nini: "Hi, sweetheart, do you miss grandma?"
Melina spoke in Chinese, Nini glanced at Dinah, and Dinah said to Nini: "This is grandma, that is grandpa, wasn't Nini's pony given by grandpa and grandma? Nini
Forgot?".
Nini shook her head and whispered to Dinah: "No."
Dinah said to Nini again: "That's called Grandpa and Grandma." After hearing Dinah's words, Nini called out to Marcos and Melina: "Grandpa, Grandma."
Marcos and Melina immediately said: "Nini sweetheart". Marcos then turned to Ju An and said: "Then let's go, go early, come back early and take my car." After saying that, they faced
Ju An waved.
Ju An had no choice but to follow him and get into Marcos' old pickup truck, which had just driven out of the ranch.
Marcos then asked Ju An: "I heard from Dinah that Nini's condition has improved a lot, so Melina and I wanted to come over and take a look. This way, it really feels a lot better."
Ju An nodded: "Nini is no longer afraid of the cowboys we often see in the ranch. Sometimes she will smile at others. Only old Thomas can bark twice."
"Yeah!" Marcos nodded and said, "That's good. Why don't you think of making a swing for Nini? There are so many such things in the supermarket, why don't you buy one?"
"I don't think it makes much sense to buy one. It would be better to make one for my children," Ju An said with a smile.
After hearing what Ju An said, Marcos praised him: "You are starting to look like a rancher now."
After buying all the wood and connecting parts according to Ju An's list, Marcos and Ju An went to the supermarket and bought three swings. It took a total of several hours to purchase everything.
Okay, by the time we get back to the ranch, it’s time to have lunch.
Dinah and Melina cooked steak together for lunch. After finishing the steak, Ju An and Marcos started to get busy. Marcos got the tools he brought from the car, and Ju An also brought them from his warehouse.
Taking out their tool belts, the father-in-law and son-in-law started making the swing frame.
Marcos saw Ju An's drawings and made some slight changes. He changed the angle between the two grazing brackets slightly larger, from Ju An's 25 degrees to 40 degrees. Then the two of them started
I started to draw diagonal lines, sawed off the excess wood, and waited until the eight supporting wood pieces were sawed.
Then I started to connect the two pieces of eight pieces of wood with connectors according to the inclination angle, and then added a small square wooden bar to the two wooden brackets to connect them, and then sawed the joints of the two connected square wooden brackets flat.
Then connect the last beam, and then use six iron rings to collect the six iron covers.
Nini was very interested in her father and grandfather at work, and looked at Ju An and Marcos from time to time. Dinah said to Nini: "Nini, grandpa and dad are making a swing for Nini.
Well, Nini likes to play on the swing?".
Nini nodded quickly and said: "I like it!" After saying that, she ran to the side and started to look at it. After looking at it for a while, she touched the tools on the tool belt behind Ju An's butt and started playing with it.
Seeing that Nini was interested in this, Marcos took out the smallest wrench from his tool belt and handed it to Nini. Nini happily followed Ju An's example and turned to the already screwed wrench.
Tighten the big screw.
Marcos then said: "Nini will definitely be a good carpenter in the future." Ju An broke into a cold sweat after hearing this. What can I boast about this girl becoming a carpenter? Carpenters in China may not be very good, but there are many here in the United States.
If you have a certificate, a carpenter can actually build an ordinary wooden house. The status of a carpenter is not very low, and he is also a skilled trade.
After the swing frame was completed and Ju An hung three plastic swings of different colors on the rings, Ju An and Thomas erected the frame so that the frame stood directly on the ground and was quite
It was stable. Marcos had already carried Nini onto the swing, and then pushed Nini to start swinging.
After shaking for a while, Nini started to laugh. Now Marcos and Ju An began to gently push the smiling Nini to start swinging. After a while, Dinah and Melina also left.
He came over, pushed twice, and took Nini down. Ju An and Marcos were ready to finish
The final work was to paint the swing. They were waiting for Marcos and Ju An to put on their gloves and start painting the swing. The two of them had just finished painting half of it when Melina and Dinah came over with two cups of coffee.
He said to Marcos and Ju An: "Let's take a break and drink a cup of coffee before we do it."
Ju An and Marcos then took off their gloves and drank coffee, while Nini stood next to Dinah and asked Ju An: "Dad, are you going to push me on the swing now?"
"We can't swing today. Dad has painted the swing. How about waiting until tomorrow to push Nini?" Ju An took a sip of coffee and said to Nini.
Nini nodded after hearing this: "Well, dad, don't forget it tomorrow."
Ju An smiled and said, "How about you remind dad when the time comes?"
"Yeah" Nini nodded happily and said.
