    When Yuan Qiaoqiao woke up, she was still a little confused and didn't know where she was. After a while, she woke up, packed up and went downstairs to meet her grandpa, grandma, uncle, aunt, and cousin Yuan An.  Tong, cousin Yuan Anhao, and Lu Meili were gathering in the living room to chat casually.

    "Grandpa, grandma!" She walked a few steps quickly and came to her grandpa and grandma. She called them affectionately and sat down next to them. Then she greeted her uncle's family and her cousin Lu Meili.

    Seeing her, Yuan Antong said with a smile: "Qiaoqiao, you woke up at the right time. Grandpa's specialty dishes, the goose stewed in the iron pot and the old duck soup, have just been prepared. You have to taste it later.  Tourists from China all praise my grandpa for cooking these two dishes."

    In fact, not only Yuan Qiaoqiao felt that her uncle's family was not familiar with her, but Yuan Minglang's family also felt that they were not familiar with her. She always felt that there was nothing to say to her, so Luo Meijuan looked at the time and saw that it was time to have dinner. She laughed hurriedly.  He said: "Qiaoqiao, you must be hungry, right? Although you ate some roasted whole lamb when you first came to the ranch, there were only a few slices, so it was nothing. Come on, let's go eat."

    With her words, Grandpa Yuan, Grandma, uncle's family, and Lu Meili all stood up and walked to the restaurant.

    Although she has always said "you don't talk when you eat", Yuan Qiaoqiao didn't care about it, so during the meal, she paid attention to the situation of her grandfather, grandmother and uncle's family at the table. After getting the answer that "everything is fine", and  Grandpa and his family seem to be more supportive of the saying "don't talk when you eat". Everyone is busy eating, which makes her too embarrassed to say anything else, so she can only concentrate on eating.

    After dinner, everyone moved to the living room and chatted awkwardly for a while. Yuan Qiaoqiao was not the kind of person who would take the initiative to initiate conversations with others, so she finally thought of a few topics, including grandparents, uncles and aunts,  My cousins ??were not very interested, and after politely answering the conversation, they fell silent.

    After this situation happened several times in succession, Yuan Qiao felt uncomfortable. She saw that her grandfather and grandmother were fine, but as elders and not good at words, they said a few words to her and cared about her and her family.  There is nothing more to say. For the rest, my cousin and cousin were a little better, but my uncle and aunt were particularly uncomfortable.

    Seeing how they were sitting on pins and needles, a thought suddenly came to her mind that she shouldn't have come, and she excused herself: "Grandpa, grandma, uncle, aunt, I've been running around here and there for the past two days, so I'm a little tired.  , I want to go back to my room to rest, you can stay by yourself."

    Before she finished speaking, Luo Meijuan immediately answered: "Then you go back to your room and rest."

    Because she answered the conversation too quickly, she was afraid that Yuan Qiaoqiao was too preoccupied and felt that she was being harassed. She wanted to explain, but she didn't know what to say, so she could only smile awkwardly at her.

    Yuan Qiaoqiao also showed an awkward and impolite smile, greeted her grandpa, grandma and uncle, glanced at her cousin Lu Meili, who had been silent all the time, got up and went upstairs to her room.

    ¡­¡­

    Just when she was engrossed in watching the American TV series, Lu Meili pushed the door in from the outside with a basin of washed fruit and placed it in front of her. "You are much more comfortable like this now than you were downstairs just now."

    Taking a bunch of grapes, Yuan Qiaoqiao ate them and said, "Do you think my joke is funny?"

    Before she could speak, she sighed and said helplessly: "Although I'm not good at dealing with interpersonal relationships, I never thought that getting along with my uncle's family would be so awkward.

    We obviously met when we were in China, and it was okay at that time; today I feel like I shouldn¡¯t come, but if I don¡¯t come, my mother will find out later, and I¡¯ll be in trouble.  "

    Picking up the fruit knife, Lu Meili picked an apple from the fruit plate, peeled the fruit, and said with a smile: "Do you feel that there seems to be something wrong with the relationship between you two?"

    "Yes, yes, just like you said, there seems to be something wrong, but I can't tell what the problem is specifically." Yuan Qiaoqiao nodded hurriedly when she heard her pointing out the key to the problem.

    Lu Meili put down the knife in her hand, threw the peel into the trash can, bit into the apple with a "click", and said with a smile: "This should be 'the authorities are confused, but the bystanders are clear', you don't know, but I know."

    After hearing what she said, Yuan Qiaoqiao asked in surprise: "You know?" How could you know?

    "That's right." Lu Meili pointed at the green grass outside the window, "You bought this Yuanhu Ranch. Although it is in your name, apart from paying taxes, the remaining income from the ranch's output is  You gave half of it to your grandfather and his family. As for the tourism company that came from the ranch, you didn¡¯t want it from the beginning and gave it all to your uncle and his family.

      Before they came to the United States, although they knew that you had given them the property to settle in the United States, they did not have a clear understanding of how big the property was. But after they came, after more than a year of  Living in the United States, no matter how stupid they are, they still understand what a generous gift you have given to their family, and the magnitude of your gift shocked them"

    "Stop it, I'm kind to my uncle's family, but I'm not as evil as you said, right?

    You know, not only is Round Lake Ranch in my name, this house is also in my name; as for the travel company, although I gave it to my uncle¡¯s family, they are not naturalized in the United States, and they don¡¯t have a green card, and I still need to use it.  It solves the problem of my inability to stay in the United States for a long time. Therefore, although the income belongs to my uncle and his family, the company is in the name of someone else.

    My uncle and the others didn¡¯t speak English when they came to the United States, and I heard from my cousin An Tong that the travel company has only just started formalizing, and the business is not much, so it is good if it does not lose money. As for the huge income, don¡¯t even think about it.  .

    No matter which country you are in, the income of farmers and herdsmen is not high.  For a large farm or ranch like this, without two years of continuous investment, even if there is a surplus, the income is not much. At most, it is barely enough to survive. They have only been here for more than a year, even if Montana¡¯s agricultural tax is very high.  It¡¯s low, and the income isn¡¯t much at all¡­¡±

    Lu Meili interrupted her with a smile, "They don't earn much, but they are not fools. Can't they see the future?

    What's more, here, you separate your grandparents from your uncle's family. Your filial piety towards your grandparents is your filial piety. But at your grandparents' place, they, their sons, daughters-in-law, and grandchildren  The granddaughter is one.

    Therefore, their income includes the two old couples, which includes your "filial piety" to them. In this way, it is very objective.

    ??Also, based on the per capita income in the United States, their income is indeed not high, but compared with that in China, is a proper "gold collar" good?  Even if we don't compare with domestic ones, with the ranch, they can save a lot of money on food on daily consumption, so their income is not low.  "

    After a pause, she added: "Also, it is precisely because neither the ranch nor the travel company is in their name that they are worried. When they see you, they originally wanted to please you, but because of the relationship between relatives  , some words are hard to say, especially when you have such a big hand, because that¡¯s why it¡¯s so embarrassing for you to get along with them.¡±

    After understanding the subtext of her words, Yuan Qiaoqiao fell silent. After a while, she changed the subject, "How is the opening of your pet factory?"

    "It's okay. As long as you have the financial support, I can get it done."

    Lu Meili didn¡¯t want to talk about this topic, so she diverted her attention and joked: ¡°School starts tomorrow and you are still in the United States. Didn¡¯t you say you should study hard? Is this how to study hard?¡±

    Yuan Qiaoqiao said back a little unhappy, "You don't need to worry about it."

    If she could, of course she didn't want to run to the United States right now, but when "Eye of Xi Tzu" was almost finished, she suddenly remembered the "September 11 World Trade Center" terrorist attack in New York while looking at the calendar.  .

    Affected by this incident, the U.S. stock market has been greatly turbulent. Knowing all this, she naturally wants to take the opportunity to get some broth to drink. After all, imperialism¡¯s wool will become white if it is not harvested!  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
