Little Life on An American Ranch: Chapter 28 joy
Chapter 28 The Joy of All
"Are you serious?" Jian Anan immediately screamed on the other end of the phone.
Jian Anan didn't understand when he heard his younger brother say this. The person in the photo is his younger brother?
An ordinary family in a county town can only save around 30,000 to 40,000 yuan a year, which is still very economical. Now, a few million dollars can be converted into tens of millions in RMB. To her, a multi-millionaire is like that. It's too far away, and now there is one at home, Jian Anan is naturally dumbfounded.
Without waiting for Jian Heng to speak, Jian Anan turned her head and said to her parents sitting next to her, "It's really Xiao Heng, it's really Xiao Heng. Could it be that the conscience of the ancestors of the old Jian's family discovered it. Ouch, Dad, call me What am I doing?"
At this moment, Dad Jian’s voice came with a bit of majesty: “Did the ancestors lack you to eat, or lacked you to drink, no big or small!”
"Really? A few million, or American money? Oh my God, the old man remembers to go to his hometown to bury his father and mother tomorrow!" Jian's mother said on the other end of the phone.
Jian Heng just held the phone and listened to his family's messy voice on the other end of the phone.
At this time, Jian Heng finally felt that some good things had finally happened during this period. At least the money that was about to be obtained made his family members feel a different kind of joy.
The other end was in chaos for about ten minutes. After listening for a while, Jian Heng found a roadside coffee shop and sat down. There was a burst of warmth, no matter when, home is a kind of concern for Jian Heng, he didn't understand it when he was young, but now he understands it.
Finally, Jian Anan remembered that she was still holding the phone in her hand, and immediately opened her mouth and said, "Hey, hello, Xiao Heng, are you still there?"
"Yes, what's the matter?" Jian Heng asked with a smile.
Jian Anan was not polite on the other end, and said directly: "Your brother-in-law and I are planning to buy a house, and now we are short of 200,000 yuan, and we are preparing for a loan. Oh! Mom, why are you beating me again?"
At this time, Jian's mother snatched the phone from her daughter: "Xiao Heng, don't listen to your sister's nonsense, she has two houses in her house, and if she wants to buy another house, it's because they have a lot of money. Don't listen to him, save the money." Okay, hurry up and find a wife to live a good life. I heard that American girls are very messy. When you meet someone you don’t know, you hug them and kiss them. You have to be careful. If you don’t like it, wait until you come back and introduce it to you. one".
Hearing what my mother said, three thick and black lines immediately appeared on Jian Heng's forehead: "Mom, did you forget how old I am?"
"How could I forget!" Jian's mother announced Jian Heng's birthday in one go.
"What kind of marriage did someone so old get married? Now I regret getting married too early!" Jian Anan muttered beside her.
"Is twenty-six still young? My little Zhao Kai and his peers are about to go to kindergarten." Jian's mother was very dissatisfied with her daughter's words, she gave her a hard look, and turned her face to face the phone, as if changing her face Putting on an amiable smile: "Hurry up, or the girl will be found by others."
Jian Heng suddenly felt that he had received 10,000 points of critical damage, and his family was only 24 years old, so he was taken by his mother to compare him with the early married people in the county. graduated.
"I got it!" Jian Heng wasn't ready to refute. I didn't understand this matter with my mother at all. If I wanted to, I could broadcast it until tomorrow. International calls don't cost money. Even if I have money, I can't make such a fuss .
Jian Heng only thought of money on this side, and Jian's mother on the other side thought of it telepathically: "Oh, you crazy girl, this is an international long-distance, something that doesn't know how to live, Xiao Heng, I'll hang up, immediately I will call you online again."
Before it was Jian Heng's turn to speak, the old lady had already hung up, and Jian Heng didn't even ask what happened to his little sister.
But Jian Heng didn't wait for a minute, and immediately there was a video request on WeChat on his mobile phone.
As soon as the video was turned on, Jian Heng found that his mother's face filled the entire screen, and the sister next to her wanted to squeeze over and squeezed a few times, but she couldn't squeeze out half of the face.
"When will you get the money? I heard that there will be more than 8 million yuan, right?" Jane's mother said very straightforwardly.
"At the auction at the end of next month, the exact transaction price is still uncertain. It may be more or less. The starting price is 6 million, but even if 8 million is auctioned, it does not mean that the entire 8 million is ours. Yes, the taxes in the United States are heavy, and it is estimated that if you get it, you will only have about half of it after removing the tax." Jian Heng said.
Mother Jian's heart bleeds immediately when she heard this: "There are so many, Americans are really nothing! Can you pay a little less, pay a hundred, no, just pay a hundred thousand and just think about it."
For Jane's mother, she absolutely cannot tolerate Americans taking so much money from her son's pocket at once.
Jian Heng was amused by his mother, he laughed twice and said: "It's not easy to pay less taxes in the United States, and you will really go to jail!"
The Internal Revenue Service is more terrifying than the FBI. If it falls into the hands of these guys, it will definitely make you happy. At that time, it will not only be solved by money.
"Mom, don't tell me if you don't understand! The laws in the United States are very strict," Jian Anan said.
Jane's mother said to her daughter again: "Only you understand, what a fart you understand without me!"
"." Jian An'an suddenly looked depressed, turned her face away and said nothing.
Jian Heng saw it at this moment, and immediately changed the subject and said, "Where is Ningning?"
There are three sisters in Jian Heng's family. Jian An'an is the eldest, who is almost thirty this year, Jian Heng is the second, twenty-four years old, and there is a younger sister who is only four years old. The age difference between the three is quite big. Especially the last little girl, the little girl born to the old couple when Jian's mother was forty-nine years old, named Jian Ningning after her sister Jian An'an.
Little girl was born not only to be liked by the old couple, but her brother and sister were also loved to the core, and her nephew, who was two years older than the poor, was Jian Anan's son, Yang Xiaoan, who was six years old, and she was also favored.
Of course, the little girl likes her brother Jian Heng the most, because every time Jian Heng goes home, Jian Heng brings a lot of delicious food, which is fun for the girl. Hearing that her brother is back, the little girl can have fun for a week.
"The little girl heard that she was going to call you, and kept clamoring to wait, but she couldn't help but fell asleep after ten o'clock, and asked her father to carry her back to her room," Jian Anan said.
"Why are you at home today?" Jian Heng asked.
"Your brother-in-law is on a business trip, and I don't want to cook alone, so I took Xiaoan home for dinner. My aunt called during the meal and said that she saw a person in the photo that looked like you," Jian Anan said.
Hearing what his sister said, Jian Heng realized that it was his aunt who discovered him first.
"Where is aunt still taking care of her grandson in the capital?" Jian Heng asked casually.
"What kind of grandson did you bring? After less than a month, he came back angrily, saying that his cousin said she couldn't do this or that, so he came home directly in a fit of anger." Jian Anan said.
Jian Heng doesn't have much interest in the short stories of the parents. Anyway, my sister said that I just listen with my own ears. This cousin Jian Heng also saw this cousin when she returned from visiting relatives last time. To be honest, Jian Heng feels that she is quite nice. But how should I put it, the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law in China is very complicated, it may not all be the cousin's fault, and it may not all be the fault of my niece, as the son and the husband's cousin may not be able to understand this matter clearly, Jian Heng I don't even want to mess up.
Jian Heng listened to his sister finished speaking, and heard that the old lady seemed to be talking nonstop, so he couldn't help asking: "What is mom muttering about?"
"It's nothing to scold the Americans, and they just robbed their family of millions of dollars!" Jian Anan couldn't help laughing a few times when she said this.
Jian Heng smiled and said: "I'll go home and have a look when things here are over."
"Well, I want to come back! My brother is coming back home! Let a group of blind **** see, our family will be fed!" Jian Anan said angrily.
"Where's Dad? Why didn't I see him say a word?" Jian Heng didn't answer what his sister said, but turned around and asked about Dad.
"Dad is laughing, and now I am discussing with my mother to go home to worship the ancestors tomorrow," Jian Anan said.
"Okay, I'm going to hang up here, it's good to figure things out, or Mom won't be able to sleep well tonight." After Jian Anan finished speaking, she added: "No, I guess she still can't sleep well tonight, I will scold the Americans all night!"
"Hahaha!" Jian Heng also laughed after hearing this.
It took almost half an hour to make such a phone call back and forth before closing the line.
As far as Jian Heng thought about it, the domestic family members estimated that this night was a long night of unintentional sleep. It was the first time Jian Heng figured out that the space was similar. In the end, he was really tired after making troubles, and fell asleep when he lay down. up.
Called a car, sat for almost half an hour, and arrived at the place just in time for a traffic jam, Jian Heng had to get out of the car and walked through two intersections, and arrived at the destination.
It is close to Central Park. This is the Upper East Side of New York. It is mainly populated by rich people from finance and investment banks. Another well-known rich area on Long Island is farther away, where lawyers, doctors and small businessmen live. People dominate.
The gym that Jian Heng wants to visit is in a building with more than 40 floors. Besides the gym, there are many well-known companies in the building. The floor of the building may not look as beautiful as the first-tier cities in China, but once you enter the This sense of class is not inferior to domestic luxury buildings at all, not only does not lose the decoration inside, but also has a sense of history.
Downstairs, Jian Heng was directly stopped by two big security guards. After Jian Heng explained his intentions, the two security guards not only registered Jian Heng, but also arranged them in the waiting area. They notified the people from the gym to come pick them up .
While Jian Heng was waiting, there was actually a beautiful woman who brought Jian Heng a cup of coffee with a very good taste. After taking a sip, Jian Heng couldn't help but praise it in his heart, because most coffee shops on the street drink coffee. Not so good coffee.
