Chapter 269

Compared with some yellowed and dilapidated corridors in the corridor, Bruce's house has obviously been simply decorated. The wall is painted with a layer of clean paint and hung with various photos of his family. The air is filled with a faint smell of materials. If Zheng Jianguo hadn't lived in a new house for some time, I'm afraid I couldn't find it.

Cagney standing in front of him looks ordinary. Of course, according to American standards, Bruce's double eyelids are not obvious on his face.

When his father patted him on the shoulder and introduced him to Zheng Jianguo, Cagney's eyebrows were much more disapproving than curious. Just considering that there were other adults nearby, he pulled the corners of his mouth, showed a false smile and leaned out his hand: "nice to meet you, Zheng -"

"Doctor, Jianguo is now a double doctor -"

Bruce said quickly. Zheng Jianguo shook hands with Cagney and smiled. He was shy and smiled for a long time.

Bruce had patted Cagney on the shoulder, smiled at Zheng Jianguo and said, "Zheng, please follow me. Here are some friends who want to know you. Cagney, don't run around!"

"OK, Dad!"

The smile on his face was completely restrained. Cagney glanced at Zheng Jianguo and turned into the living room. He saw that cousin Jessica and sister Martha were standing by the wall. They looked like they had just peeped and were afraid of being found. He shrugged and said, "you see, Dad regarded Zheng as an adult."

"Is Zheng really Dr. Shuangliao?"

Jessica stroked her long wine red hair beside her ears, and her dark blue eyes were full of looking color. Cagney shrugged and sat directly on the brand-new sofa, put her feet on the tea table in front of her, and said with a shake: "Dad said that, it should be true --"

"You should be polite to Zheng. Don't think his age is similar to yours, and you don't respect him. Cagney, if you really want to be a doctor, you should pay more attention! Don't make mistakes like today. Let him take a taxi. "

Catlin put the two fruit trays on the tea table, looked into the study and said it. She warned Cagney again. Then she saw Jessica and her daughter Martha next to her. After scanning them, she explored her hands and sorted out the hairpins on their heads. Her expression was much softer: "from today on, you will all become ladies, So Martha, you can be popular at the French high school in New York, and Jessica will start her college life -- "

"OK, mom!"

"OK, aunt!"

Seeing Martha answer, Jessica blinked her blue eyes and said.

Only after Catlin nodded did she enter the nearby kitchen. Cagney, who was watching the TV, turned his head and looked at them. His eyes swept over Jessica's Sapphire like eyes and looked at Martha, who tried to look like a lady. He couldn't help bursting out his rebellious character: "do you feel that your aunt and mother are going to introduce you two to Zheng as girlfriends?"

"No, they just don't want us to lose their face, which will embarrass them. The reason why the tuition fee of our school is not worse than that of medical school is not because this is the upper east side of Manhattan, next to central park or fifth avenue. We can't lose face here -"

Feeling the provocative meaning in Cagney's tone, Jessica secretly scolded a fool in her heart, but considering that she grew up in this family after all, she smiled: "instead of the previous lower east side, I heard that the house price here will only rise or fall."

"I think Jessica, you don't have to pretend to be a lady. As long as you smile at Zheng or other men, they will be fascinated by you -"

Looking at the cousin's way of speaking and sitting posture, Cagney sat up quickly and came to her side. He didn't want the latter to move slightly, open the distance and smile: "although appearance is very important, it also needs a brain."

"My brother is still a little smart, but I don't know if he smokes too much. I think he's still under the age of 18 like us. He can lose his temper and express his dissatisfaction with his parents -"

After picking up the eyebrows with heavy makeup, Martha said in a young and mature tone, then glanced at Cagney's sitting posture, flashed the work assigned to him by his father today, and continued to say: "then don't worry about being driven out of the house. You need to raise your own college tuition for the next four years, or you can't complete your college education because you can't afford the tuition, You can only be a worker in a factory or a waiter in a fast food restaurant. "

"Cousin Cagney, you don't want that, do you?"

Jessica looked at Martha curiously. She didn't expect that the latter would take out what they had said in private. For fear of provoking the dissatisfaction of the, she continued: "especially if you still want to take a preparatory course in medicine during college, you can go to medical school after graduation - even if your uncle and aunt are willing to provide tuition for you, even if you study well, You will also become a doctor like Zheng in eight years. "

"Eight years. You'll be 26 years old by then. It's really a long time."

Martha subconsciously said that Cagney quickly took his feet away from the tea table and sat up straight. It seemed that after being moved, she looked at them and said curiously, "have you two talked about me in private?"

"To be exact, I'm trying to persuade you. It's not because you have any charm, especially when your uncle asked you to pick up Zheng. You didn't receive it. But when you came back, you still felt that he made a fool of you and made you complain by your uncle and aunt. Do you want to vent your anger on Zheng?"

Jessica blinked her blue eyes at Cagney and said, but soon found disapproval on the other party's face. Even if she leaned out her hand and said, "you feel you have no face, but have you considered the face of adults? If you think your face is bigger than theirs, they won't care what you think, because it means you're still naive.

Now the study is the most important friend of my uncle. When Zheng came, he first introduced you to him. It is likely that my uncle was afraid that Zheng left a bad impression and explained that he didn't receive him well. Then he took him to the study, but what about you? Do you feel wronged? You want to ruin this housewarming dinner for your family? "

"You, this is what you think?"

Cagney seemed to have been punched in the face and stared at Jessica incredulously. Unexpectedly, the latter quickly nodded and said, "people only know how to cherish when they lose. Whenever I see you arguing with your uncle and aunt, I regret that I treated my parents that way. Unfortunately, I don't have a chance now -"

"Sorry, Jessica, I don't want to remind you of the past. This is also your home -"

Hearing her talk about her life experience, Cagney was at a loss. Fortunately, Jessica didn't cry as he thought, so he nodded and said, "well, what do you think can make my parents happy?"

"You just listen to them -"

Seeing that the rebellious cousin finally returned to normal, Jessica gave the illusion that she had finally matured. Then she remembered her identity, so she continued to say, "because you can't make money, they won't let you make money. They should be happy as long as you listen and study, and only they are happy, You usually have more pocket money. "

"Well, for pocket money, I was persuaded by you --"

The 18-year-old I heard before flashed in my mind. Cagney suddenly remembered that when he graduated last time, several people had become waiters and waiters in fast food restaurants because their families were unwilling to take money to continue to let them go to school. Some even got kicked out of the house after falling out with their families and thought of staying here for a few days penniless: "before, I really ignored the fact that I was 18. "

As if reminded by Jessica, Cagney made up his mind to get close to Zheng Jianguo, but what he didn't expect was that he didn't see Zheng Jianguo coming out with his father until Catlin called to start eating, and when he stood up to say something, Ian aimer, with a bright forehead, smiled and said, "Cagney, which university are you going to?"

"In fact, I think Boston University is very good -"

Bruce said quickly, but his eyes looked at Cagney on his smiling cheeks, so that he was stunned when he wanted to say hello to Zheng Jianguo and nodded: "yes, Boston University is located in the center of Boston University City, with MIT and Harvard University nearby. The learning atmosphere is very good. Considering that my career planning is a doctor, I'm afraid we'll have to trouble Dr. Zheng. "

"Ha -"

Ian aimer looked back at Zheng Jianguo with a smile on his face. The latter couldn't help looking at the "child" who had a nose, not a nose, not an eye, and a rebellious spirit all over his body. He knew that no matter whether he would be a doctor or not, he had to be a real doctor: "although I don't know the pre medical major of Boston University, to be conservative, I'm afraid you won't be as leisurely as other students, but I agree to your request. If you have any problems in your study, you can come to me at any time. "

"Not yet. Thank you, Dr. Zheng?"

Next to him, Ignatius brosnaan opened his mouth. Cagney saw his father's concerned eyes. He only knew that the stranger who opened his mouth was his father's colleague in the State Council. He was essentially different from Ian aimer, who was purely a friend. Now even he said so, he quickly said, "thank you, Dr. Zheng!"

"Poor parents all over the world -"

Looking at Bruce with a cheerful look, Zheng Jianguo flashed the idea in his mind, and his mouth was not idle: "if you say thank you, I have to thank your father -"

"Zheng, that's too modest."

Bruce quickly interrupted Zheng Jianguo's words, then opened his mouth on one side of his body and said, "you can come here today. I didn't arrange outsiders to organize this party. I'm afraid it set a precedent for the upper east side. However, I learned several Chinese dishes when I was in the Republic. I think everyone has never tasted them outside. Zheng, you have to eat more -"

"Well, try Mr. Bruce's craft -"

Since I didn't see the waiter when I came, five people, including Zheng Jianguo, knew that it was a family banquet.

However, I didn't expect that he would entertain people with Chinese food. Then, just after he got on the table, Cagney took Martha, but Jessica became a waiter and constantly spread the tableware and dishes to the table, but the attention of several people was obviously not on the appetizer. Evelyn Tali said: "the British are said to have rushed into the Ilan embassy, After paying a few lives, they solved their trouble. "

"They are at home. As long as they are willing to sacrifice, they don't have to think about it."

Ignatius brosnaan said and looked at Evelyn Tali. Zheng Jianguo had a good impression of the former director of the visa center who helped him, but he couldn't get into the topic they said. Although Britons rushed into the key words of the Ilan embassy, he didn't have any memory in his mind.

Fortunately, Evelyn Tali's next sentence solved his doubts: "those terrorists don't think about it. If Britain agrees to their conditions, as long as who is dissatisfied and makes such an accident in the future, which country will allow this to happen?"

"If you promise, you will step down. If you don't promise, you may not step down. But the president is also having a hard time. Today's polls are lower -"

Ian aimer looked at the new caviar and said that Zheng Jianguo saw that the other four people except this one looked at each other for a while, and found that it was likely that the pot was not opened. The other four people on this table were all under President Carter. Do you think their boss will not work long?

After seeing the appearance of the four people, Zheng Jianguo knew that only he could answer the topic. Thinking of the eagle claw operation launched last time, he said, "the reason why the eagle claw operation failed last time is not the weather and environmental factors?"

"That's also an intelligence error. How could the troops who fought in South Vietnam for so many years ignore this factor in their operations? I feel that some people in the army are dissatisfied with the president, which may be related to his peasant identity and origin.

In addition, he has distinct character shortcomings and is afraid of being attacked by rabbit killers. In an interview with Playboy, he admitted that when he sees an attractive woman, he will fantasize about their relationship. You know, he is still an evangelical Christian -- "

Ian aimer looked a little excited. When he said this, he also glanced at the others on the table until his eyes finally fell on Zheng Jianguo's face. The voice continued: "even a young man like Zheng should know that some things can't be said or done?"

"Can you tell the media about YY? Carter is taking a lot of drugs?"

When Zheng Jianguo didn't know whether to agree with his statement or oppose his statement, Jessica appeared next to him and smiled at him. After revealing the girl's youth, she put the chicken mixed with green pepper and red pepper on the table: "Zheng, this is spicy chicken ~"
