I'm teammates with Kobe

Chapter 70
While the men were busy in the kitchen, Vanessa continued to set the table with Trish and the kids.

The children are responsible for carrying, while the adults stay where they are and put things away. The two have a clear division of labor and get along very harmoniously.

I saw Tracy hollowed out a big pumpkin and placed it in the middle of the dining table. Vanessa lit a candle inside the pumpkin, and piled apples, corn, dried fruits, etc. around it.

After setting the table, the two rushed to the kitchen together, and happened to meet Kobe and the others on the way.

"What are you two doing?" Bryant asked his wife.

"I'm going to make some mashed potatoes, pumpkin pie, creamed onions, etc., and Trish will help me." Vanessa finished speaking and took Tracy's arm and said, "She is very ingenious, I like it so much."

"It's useless to like her, because she belongs to Chu Xiao, haha." Kobe started the daily funny mode of the couple.

Vanessa glanced at him with a smile, and then said to Chu Xiao, "Is your boss very cold and domineering in the team? Look, you can't think of it, he is actually a bitch in real life."

"It's good, it's cute." Chu Xiao wouldn't be fooled, how dare he say "bad things" about the boss in front of the boss.

"It seems that you have learned badly after staying with Kobe for a long time, and you are so glib." Vanessa stopped talking to the two men in front of her, and dragged Trish into the kitchen.

Kobe looked at his wife's back and said, "It can be seen that she likes Trish very much. You can bring her here often if you have nothing to do! Over the years, people only see my success and fame, but they don't know that Vanessa has always been She pays silently behind the scenes. She has to take good care of the family and the children. It is not easy, so I will spend more time with her when I have time, but everyone needs friends, and she focuses on her family After that, there are almost no friends."

"Okay, no problem!" Chu Xiao agreed very simply, and at the same time, she had a little more sympathy and affection for this sister-in-law.

"Hey, I was so busy talking to you that I forgot to promise the children to play games with them." After Kobe finished speaking, he continued to walk out, calling his daughters' names softly, "Natalia? Jaina? Where are you? Uncle Chu and I are here to play games with you!"

"Really?" Gianna, 6, poked her head out from behind the arched door, revealing a pair of bright eyes.

To be honest, among Kobe’s two daughters, Gianna is the most concerned. She showed her basketball talent when she was younger. Not only does she look the most like Kobe, but she is also very lovable, with a cheerful personality and a charming face. She always wears a confident smile, and even her grandparents love this granddaughter very much.

Vanessa's love for Jaina is more than anyone else. She likes to dress up Jaina very much, wearing floral skirts and princess crowns. Although she inherited her father's athletic cells, she is also very good at beauty. Mother's true biography.Therefore, Vanessa will often upload some warm photos of kissing Jaina on her personal account, one of which is in a group of flowers, the two are so naturally beautiful, which makes people enviable.

Chu Xiao saw that Kobe's house had set up a basketball court, and originally wanted to take advantage of the free time to discuss his skills with him, and by the way, ask him for advice on how to deal with the league's top point guards, such as Paul, Westbrook and others.

When he saw Gianna happily running out from behind the arched door, and then being picked up by Kobe and held high, he completely dismissed the idea.Yes, he wants to play games with them too.

On Thanksgiving Day in the United States, in addition to some people going to the streets to celebrate the festival, shopping malls to hold discounts, and a group of young women to pack a basket full of food and send it to the poor’s homes to do good deeds, some people will also do some traditional things at home. Games, such as dancing, competitions, etc.

The game Kobe wants to play with his daughters is the game, which fits his competitive personality.

The first event was the cranberry race, and they put a big bowl of cranberries on the ground, and then the four of them sat around and each had a share of needlework.After the competition started, they first threaded needles and threads, and then stringed cranberries one by one. When the 3 minutes are up, whoever has the longest string will win the prize.As for the person with the slowest string, everyone jokingly gave him the worst award.

As a result, Natalia won No.1, Kobe helped Jaina get second, and Chu Xiao was last.

"Haha, Uncle Chu is the worst, we need to award him the worst award, who will present the award?" Kobe said, but his eyes encouraged Jaina to act.

Sure enough, the little guy immediately raised his hand after being encouraged, "I'll do it!"

I saw Jaina turned and ran to the dining table, and ran over holding an apple in a short while.

Kobe immediately made an explanation, "The guest of honor for this competition, Gianna, is invited! Oh, she will award an apple to Chu Xiao who won the worst award."

"Ah ha ha..." The girls were amused and giggled.

Chu Xiao stood up immediately, took the apple from Jaina seriously, and gave his acceptance speech, "I am very honored to receive this award today. First of all, I would like to thank my motherland, they have cultivated Me. Secondly, I would like to thank my parents, without them there would be no me. Finally, I would like to thank CCTV, MTV, all kinds of TV..."

"Haha..." The children were amused again.

Inspired by the laughter, Vanessa and Tracey joined in as they did corn games and pumpkin races together.

During the corn game, everyone hid 5 corns in the house, and then searched separately. The 5 people who found the corn participated in the game, and the remaining 1 person watched from the sidelines.After the game started, these five people quickly peeled the corn kernels in a bowl, and whoever peeled them first won the prize.Then, those who did not participate in the competition will gather around the bowl and guess how many corn kernels are in it. If they guess correctly, they will be rewarded with popcorn.

Kobe, who has never been willing to admit defeat on the court, is always willing to lose off the court, because whenever the game starts, he will always help Gianna, let the 6-year-old daughter enjoy the game to the fullest, and he will do his best Support, don't care about your ranking at all.

So, when he was playing the corn game, he didn’t find any corn, so he willingly guessed how many corn kernels there were in everyone’s bowls, but he failed to guess right once, which caused Jaina couldn’t help complaining, “Daddy is so stupid!”

Whenever this time, Kobe always laughed, and then kissed his daughter dotingly.

As for the pumpkin race game, it is more interesting. The contestants use a small spoon to push the pumpkin to run. The rule is that you must never touch the pumpkin with your hands. The first to reach the finish line will win the prize.And the smaller the spoon used in the game, the more interesting the game.

This game was not difficult for Kobe and Chu Xiao, but they both chose to lag behind in a clumsy way, which often made the four women laugh.

After finishing the game, it was already late and night fell. When the beautiful sunset came into view, the kitchen also emitted bursts of tempting food aroma.

"I'm hungry, I'm hungry." Jaina started bouncing around the yard.

"OK! Let's go eat." Kobe picked up Jaina and said, "You are obedient, go wash your hands with my sister, and I will go to the kitchen with my uncle and aunt to bring out delicious food, okay?"

"Okay!" Gianna slipped out of Kobe's arms, and then bounced and followed her sister into the house.

In the kitchen, more than three hours have passed since the chicken was sent to the oven.

Before Chu Xiao and the others entered the room, they smelled a strong fragrance.

"It must be burnt on the outside and tender on the inside." Kobe strode in, found a pair of thick cotton gloves and put them on before opening the oven door. Suddenly, a white hot air mixed with a more fragrant smell came out. He waved After fanning away the heat, you can see the turkey that has been baked into a golden brown skin inside.

"Wow, great success!" Kobe said, smacking his lips. "Ladies, are your mashed potatoes and pumpkin pie ready?"

"It's ready, you can take the turkey out first, we'll be there later." After Vanessa finished speaking, Kobe took Chu Xiao out with the turkey.

The turkey was placed in the middle of the table, next to the pumpkin.

"Sit down, you're welcome!" Kobe directed Chu Xiao to take a seat, but he returned to the house, and came out again after a while, and placed pumpkin pie, sweet potatoes, corn, chestnuts, and cranberry jelly around the turkey , cranberry, cider, white wine, etc.

Vanessa and Trish also came out with mashed potatoes and pumpkin pie, followed by the children after washing their hands.

"Sit!" Kobe reminded again when he saw Chu Xiao was still standing by the table.

Chu Xiao counted a total of 12 chairs, and there were only 6 of them in total, which meant that there were 6 seats reserved for others, so he hesitated, not knowing where to sit.

Kobe quickly saw his hesitation, stopped urging, took the lead to sit on the top of the table, pointed to his right side and said, "You two sit here, Vanessa and the children sit on my left .”

"Aren't there other friends? They don't come to eat?" Chu Xiao asked while sitting down.

"The two of them? They will only come here after eating with their family, and they are coming by plane. It will probably be very late, so there is no need to wait." Kobe finally knew the reason for his hesitation, so he pretended to be tricky and said, "Those two people are Ka Lon Butler and Tracy McGrady, have you heard of it?"

"I heard, they are very famous, and they are also one of the few close friends of yours. Among them, Mai Di has been teammates with Yao Ming for a long time, and Chinese fans are familiar with him." Chu Xiao heard that it was him After two days, I was still a little shocked.

"Yes, both of them are my best buddies, and I fly over to Juju every Thanksgiving, and I can introduce you to each other later." After Kobe finished speaking, he sold the real secret, "This time besides Juju, there is There will be a breaking news, do you want to know what it is?"

"Think, what is it?"

"Hey, I'll find out later." Kobe straightened up and opened a bottle of white wine for himself and Chu Xiaoman after he had finished selling the wine, and then opened cider for Vanessa and Trishman respectively Finally, he raised the wine glass in his hand and said, "Today is the holiday, you can drink less wine. Come on, happy holidays!"
