Vol 3 Chapter 112: Between neighbors

Two people who slept during the day were more excited at night. After eating an authentic American seafood meal at Fisherman’s Wharf, they drove to San Francisco at night. Two young Asians drove in such an elegant and solemn manner. The style of the convertible luxury car, let alone, the rate of return is really good.

Looking at the different scenery and people around, Huang Jingping is always a little unsure, "We, even if we settle in the United States again?"

"Why say it again?"

"Look, in 1998, we were in the city, in 1999, we arrived in the capital, and in 2001, we arrived in the United States," Huang Jingping counted with her fingers, "you said, in two years, where will you take me? ?"

This is really true. However, after finishing her one-year exchange student career here and giving birth to a little monkey, if Huang Jingping also returns to China, she will definitely not return to the capital. At that time, it will explode. How can she follow The pink monkey stay in the capital?

"Why, don't you like it?"

"Hehe, as long as I'm with you, I like it everywhere," Huang Jingping quickly kissed his face.

"But, where are we?" Feng Yiping immediately found out that he believed in the horse by the rein and didn't know where he was driving.

After asking for directions several times, I finally turned out of the main city. Just like Feng Yiping's first visit, Huang Jingping was not used to the quietness of other places. It should be said that it was deserted.

The mountain road back home is even more quiet. Although the street lights are very bright, there are brightly lit houses at the end of the trail. But let alone people on the road, there is not even a dog. What they hear now is just Only the sound of insects in the woods.

Finally, a car in front came down the mountain. It was a convertible Porsche sports car. When the car was meeting, the guy in the gray t-shirt stopped and said hello, "You must be our new neighbor? Good car. . This is Harry,"

"Feng, nice to meet you!" Feng Yiping greeted him with a smile. This was the first neighbor they met.

"Listen to Mike. You just came to the United States. If you need help, call me."

This seems to be a very enthusiastic buddy, but. You said so nicely, but leave a phone call!

If in China, Feng Yiping would generally ask politely, "What are you going to do?" But this is the United States, which regards more importantly than breathing, or not to ask.

"It seems that the neighborhood is not as indifferent as in the legend," Huang Jingping said.

Although the two of them lived in the villa area of ​​the capital for so long, the names of their neighbors were still not known exactly.

"In every community, there may be one or two enthusiastic people." Feng Yiping said with a smile.

Whether it's him or her, these two guys don't know much about how to get along with American neighborhoods. They all want to live their lives behind closed doors. I won't disturb you, and you don't care about me.

…………

"Ding Dong," the doorbell was ringing, Huang Jingping was preparing lunch in the kitchen, and Mike said he would bring Lisa over. "Yiping, go open the door,"

As soon as the door was opened, one was wearing a blue skirt. A neatly packed woman stood at the door, holding a plate in both hands, and a little girl in a princess dress stood beside him, "Hello, you must be Feng, I am Kate. The third one on the right below, this is Some biscuits I baked, congratulations on moving to a new home."

Feng Yiping took the big plate a bit ignorantly and let them in, "Please come in, two of you."

"Stop interrupting," Kate smiled and took a note from her daughter. "This is my husband Harry's call."

Oh, it turned out to be the wife of that buddy yesterday.

"Then wait a minute," Feng Yiping went into the house and turned over for a while. From the box of clay sculptures he brought over, he picked a fat doll riding on a buffalo. "This is for you." He bent down and said to Harry. Said the daughter.

"Wow, this is so exquisite," Crooked Nuts are gadgets that like these characteristic folk customs of our Datian Dynasty, "Anne, what should you say?"

"Thank you!" the little girl said sweetly to Feng Yiping.

Kate’s visit seemed to be a signal. Following that, the door of Feng Yiping’s house was constantly knocked. They all stood at the door and said a few words briefly. Then they presented a plate of homemade desserts and the box of clay sculptures they brought. After a while, it was posted clean.

When Lisa came with Mike, she also brought snacks. It was a cake she made herself. Looking at the things on the table, they were obviously not surprised. "It seems you are going to prepare a party," Mike said with a smile.

"Does it have to be done? Can I pay a return visit?"

"This is tradition," Mike felt a little happy watching the young boss embarrassed.

"It's very simple," Lisa helped him set the tableware. "You set a day to set up a tent in the front yard, prepare some snacks, drinks, and a seafood barbecue. Those who come to participate will also do it themselves. Bring some food,"

"Hehe, let's try, go to the countryside and do what the customs do!" What mountain to sing, what song, and here, we can only do according to their rules.

"Yiping, help me serve food," Huang Jingping walked out carrying a plate of Guogui tofu.

Western food is definitely not better than Lisa. The dishes they prepared today are all authentic Chinese dishes, such as fish-flavored pork shreds, hot and sour potato shreds, and Kung Pao chicken.

In order to take care of the children they brought, they also made scrambled eggs with tomatoes and steamed shrimps with broccoli.

"Is this authentic Chinese food? It's not the same as what you eat in Chinatown." Mike can eat spicy food, but his chopsticks are really bad. It takes a long time to make it.

"You should use a spoon," Feng Yiping pointed to the spoon he put aside.

"It's really delicious," Lisa said, "and this eating habit is healthier than us, with less meat and more vegetarian dishes."

In fact, we also eat meat. I wanted to stir-fry twice-cooked pork, but I was afraid that you were not used to it.

"Mike, is this the same in your community? Your neighbors are so enthusiastic?" Feng Yiping really doesn't believe that his country is known as a society of human relations. Now the relationship between neighbors is becoming increasingly indifferent. This benefit-first America, among neighbors, will Is that good?

"This," Mike seemed a little hard to say, "it's like a customary rule. Every time a new neighbor comes, everyone must welcome it."

Mike actually didn't say a word, especially when the market is downturn, neighbors who can invest in this field, everyone will definitely want to have a good relationship with you.

"I understand that even in normal times, I still keep a proper distance, right,"

"Yes," Mike nodded.

"What should we pay attention to when we interact with our neighbors?" Huang Jingping asked.

"It's actually simple, try not to interfere with others," Lisa said.

"There is a proverb,'The Englishman’s home is his castle'. Don’t take the initiative to visit without being invited. You really need to visit. It’s best to call in advance to make an appointment, and try not to make an appointment before 7 o’clock in the stove and after 10 o’clock in the evening. Call the neighbor." Mike added.

"Also, you have to clean up your own yard, like the lawn. In summer like this, you usually have to trim it once a week," Lisa added.

"If you go to a bar or a coffee shop together, don't rush to pay the bill." I don't know this, but I generally don't have a problem with others rushing to pay the bill.

"Also, if you have pets, you must manage them well in the future," added.

…………

When Feng Yiping heard this, he felt that the United States, where feelings are very free, does not seem to live freely in China.

What's more, everyone is so enthusiastic today because they are new residents. If it weren't for a long time as a neighbor, they wouldn't know what the neighbor did.

"But ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ may be due to the fact that their faces are not so good, Mike said, "Everyone is happy to share some things with neighbors, such as which gardener is good,"

At this point, Feng Yiping did not respond for a long time, "Why are you leveling?"

"I seem to think of something," Feng Yiping said.

Regardless of whether it is the United States or China, the relationship between neighbors is getting colder and colder, and the reason is actually very simple.

Although the society is progressing more and more, at the same time, everyone’s pressure is also increasing. After getting home from get off work, I am as tired as a dead dog. I can’t worry about my own affairs, so I don’t have the energy to care about other people’s homes. .

Besides, if it is a neighbor, there is unavoidable bumps and bumps. If the relationship is usually too good, when there are conflicts, it is not easy to be ruthless, right?

This keeping a distance is actually a kind of protection for oneself.

However, the major social media in the United States later became so popular that they should like to socialize very much. Is it possible to make a fuss about it? (To be continued.)
