Chapter 58 Homecoming
It was after six o'clock in the evening that Kerry sent Dad and the others back. As soon as they entered the house, the family members happily shouted, "Grandma, Mom (aunt), look I got a lot of rewards today."The two little guys scrambled to report their glorious achievements to their mother and sister who were arranging dinner.

Seeing that Ran Ran and Tongtong were so happy, Ju An smiled and said to her brother-in-law, "You two little people, you had a good time today."

The brother-in-law looked at Ju An, then looked at the two little guys who looked like offering treasures, and said, "It's a good game. My dad and I bought more than 100 tickets for forty dollars as soon as we entered the door, and then we have lunch, what are we going to play?" Everything depends on the tickets in hand, some need more tickets, some need less, basically every child can get a small reward for playing in it, but it is still very interesting, such as giving a child a piece of paper With the help of parents, roll it into a tube, which one holds the most popcorn, the tall thin one or the short and fat one, and why, let the children think about the principle, and give you a few cups, pour several liquids in succession, and then After being stirred, it becomes something like plasticine. I think it is very good. Many children have been exposed to some mathematics and science knowledge in the game, and Ran Ran even touched a big box of chocolates."

"That's right, I even got a piece of chocolate back, and I finally got a little bit of it back," Ju An said happily.

After the two little guys reported at length, everyone ate dinner, and after dinner, Ju An sat on the sofa with her brother-in-law and father to talk about the arrangements for returning to China, and Ju An discussed the plan with her mother in the afternoon. After mentioning it, my brother-in-law nodded and said, "Well, just send it to the San Francisco Airport. When we arrive in Jiangnan, we will go home directly, and we will wait for the big brother for a day at most."

Dad also nodded.At this time, Ran Ran ran over with Tongtong in his hand: "Second Master! We saw a kind of pony when we were playing today. When we come next time, will there be pony at home?".

Ju An thought for a while: "Pony? What pony?" After asking, she looked at her brother-in-law curiously.

The brother-in-law patted Xiao Ranran's butt gently and said, "Go to the side to play. You can come to Erye's house to ride a big horse in two years. What kind of pony do you want?"Ran Ran and Tongtong had no choice but to walk away with Wu Song. The brother-in-law was still somewhat intimidating to the little guys. Unlike Ju An, the two little guys were basically not afraid of him.

Watching the little guys go to the kitchen, my brother-in-law said: "There is a project to touch the pony and take a photo with the pony. The two little guys went up to take a photo, just a horse that is two laps bigger than a tiger's head. , don't say I have never seen such a small horse."

Ju An scratched his head and said, "And this ****, how tall."Watching her brother-in-law gesture with her hand, Ju An was a little unsure of what to eat. She really didn't know that there were such horses in the world.

"Let's talk about it when they come next time. I really didn't pay attention to this thing. I must have gotten two horses for the children to play with," Ju An said.

The brother-in-law shook his head and said, "You dote on these two little guys too much. How can a child give whatever they want. What's the use of a horse that's not much bigger than a dog, it's a waste of money."

Ju An said with a smile: "How much is a pony with a big fart worth, if you die for four big horses, it's not bad for children to learn how to ride a horse."When Ju An wanted to get two ponies later and inquired about the price, Ju An was almost taken aback and directly asked Ju An to scold your uncle.

Dad listened to Ju An's words and said, "Besides, you will take Ran Ran and Tongtong to buy something tomorrow. The two children are going to give little Jerry and Emily some things as separate gifts."

The brother-in-law added a sentence: "Don't buy too expensive things, let the children have vanity, I actually heard little Jerry's father today, it makes sense, they give Jerry and Emily five dollars a week, the next A week is to transfer five dollars from their own account to the bank accounts of two little guys, which forces the children to save half their pocket money, and they also make a list of chores to be done, check every day, do The bad ones will be deducted, and when I go back, I will also let Tongtong do the housework that she can do, such as washing the dishes, and then give her ten yuan a week as pocket money.”

Ju An said with a smile, "You have ten yuan this week, and Tongtong is not stupid. She turned her head and ran to my mother's place and stretched out her hand. It was ten yuan. Why do you have to do housework for a week to earn your ten yuan?"

The brother-in-law patted his forehead and said, "Fortunately, you reminded me. When I have time, I will tell my mother, don't keep giving money to children, adults should unite the front."

Ju An followed her with a glance at her brother-in-law and said, "Not only my mother, but also the elderly in your family. Only after a few elderly people in the family are settled can your plan be implemented smoothly."

Seeing her brother-in-law nodding with a serious look on her face, Ju An continued, "Then I will take two little guys to buy things tomorrow, and each of them should budget five dollars."

Dad nodded and said, "Well, I think it's almost there".

Since everyone agreed, the next morning, Ju An drove the two little guys to the supermarket in the town. As soon as they entered the supermarket and saw Ju An with the two children, the salesperson enthusiastically recommended: "We The back-to-school counter has just opened here, and there are a lot of school supplies to choose from." After saying that, he pointed to a pink sign next to it, which said in English, "Happy to return to school, how do you think about it? Anyway, I myself When I was a child, I was busy copying homework in the first few days of school, and every time I was not happy.

Ran Ran rushed to push the shopping cart, Ju An carried Tongtong into the shopping cart, Ran Ran happily pushed the cart below, Ju An put her leisurely hands in her pockets, followed the shopping cart, and kept reminding her. Ran Ran: "Slow down! Slow down."Tongtong sat on the shopping cart and shouted happily, "Brother, come on."

Every time I heard refueling, Ran Ran came to the spirit and pushed the car harder.Ju An had no choice but to pull to prevent the two little guys from being overjoyed.

First went to the place where Tongtong wanted to sell dolls, and Ran Ran picked a baby elephant the size of a slap for Emily, while Tongtong picked a Barbie doll with a small bed.The two little guys talked to each other as they walked.

Ran Ran said: "Emily will definitely like this baby elephant. The last time I saw it, my mother didn't buy it for me."

"Emily will also like my present," said Xiao Tongtong, who was holding the box under her arm and nodded, "It will take a long time to see Emily and Brother Jerry."

Hearing what Tongtong said, Ran Ran became a little lonely.

Ju An enlightened the two little guys and said, "When the New Year's holiday is over, Ran Ran and Tongtong can come over again, and they can chat with Emily and Jerry online every day. Everyone is like face to face."

After picking out gifts for Jerry, when Ju An went to the door to check out, Ran Ran and Tongtong were clinging to the cashier, looking at each item they swiped, they said to the cashier, "Thank you".When the bill was finally settled, the cashier girl also drew a big smiley face on the back of the list and handed it to Tongtong. After Tongtong took it, she happily said to Ju An, "Look at my aunt giving me a smiley face." Ju An touched it. Touching Tongtong's head, he said, "Tongtong is very polite, only polite children like to fight."

When they returned to the ranch with the two little guys, Jerry and Emily were already waiting, and the little guys heard the sound of cars in the yard and ran out.

Little Jerry said to Ju An, "Uncle An, can we stay at your house tonight? I already told my father."

"Of course, but you have to go to bed at eleven o'clock." Ju An thought about it and agreed.

After listening to Ju An's answer, Jerry cheered: "Emily, today we can live with Ran Rantongtong".The rest of the little guys also became happy. The four little guys did not make trouble outside the house as usual, but carried a small bag and went to the upstairs room.

At noon, when my sister went upstairs and asked the little guys to come down for dinner, Ju An saw the children's eyes were red when they came down, and it was obvious that they had just cried.

The elder sister smiled and explained to everyone: "When I went upstairs, as soon as I opened the door, a few little guys were lying on the bed and spilling cat urine."

"Okay, kids, on the last day, let's all be happy. If you say it, you won't be able to see it later. You can still see it online every day." Serve rice.

My sister also said, "Yes, you can still call."

Tongtong looked at her mother and asked suspiciously, "Can I still make a phone call?".Ju An's sister was taken aback by the question, and she said casually, "Why not, of course."

Ju An followed up with a smile and replied, "Sister, every time it's an international long distance call. You can discuss the phone bill with your brother-in-law. I suggest you don't come over during the Spring Festival, and make up lessons for your children at home, so that you can make up for Tongtong's long-distance calls next year. Make up for the phone bill."

Dad and a few people laughed when they heard it. My sister thought about it and continued with Tongtong: "Of course you can make a phone call, but there is no picture on the phone. It's great to chat online, and you can see Jerry and Emily."

Not long after lunch, the little guys temporarily forgot about their unhappy things, and took Wu Song and Hutouantou to practice the lasso in front of the house, lassoing a wooden calf, when Old Thomas was free Made for the little guys, it has four legs, the horns on top of the head are two wooden sticks, and it is painted with black and white flowers, which looks like a little cow.

The adults started to pack their luggage. When they went back, they brought more things than when they came. My mother and sister brought a lot of things for relatives in China, such as leather bags and wallets. My sister was going to buy some clothes to take home. In the end, Ju An persuaded them a few times and showed them where the clothes were made. Nine times out of ten, they were all made in China, so the two of them gave up and brought some more expensive clothes. Special small items are given to relatives and friends in China.
