American Comics: The Invincible Wheel of Fortune
Chapter 20 20. Family banquet
The young man who happily rushed towards Aaron was none other than Gwen's eldest brother, Howard Stacey. He was thirteen years old this year and had just entered puberty and started to change his voice, so his voice sounded a little strange. His voice sounded "quacking" when he spoke. "of.
When Aaron moved into Stacey's house, the little guy Howard was only five years old. He followed Aaron like a little tail all day long. Aaron often took this little guy to play with him. Brothers are no different.
Then eight years passed in the blink of an eye, and the little guy back then had grown into a half-grown great young man.
Of the four children in Stacey’s family, Gwen and Howard have the best relationship with Aaron. The last two younger ones, Aaron moved out when the third child, Phillip, was born. Their relationship is pretty good, but not as good as Gwen’s. Howard is like a brother and sister.
The third child Philip and the youngest Simon who followed behind also greeted Aaron politely, and Aaron also greeted and responded respectively. These two younger little guys did not get along with each other as much as Howard and Aaron. Time, it's been a long time since I last saw him, and he seemed a little cautious at this time.
The two little guys seemed to be honest and friendly, not like Howard who used to play crazy with Aaron all day long, and was very naughty, not like their eldest sister, who made Aaron feel uncontrollable from time to time.
George, who was following behind, smiled silently when he saw that Aaron had a harmonious relationship with his three boys.
"Aaron, you haven't taken me to play basketball for a long time. When are you going to go together again?" Howard complained slightly, but also asked expectantly.
When Aaron lived here, he was the star of the school basketball team. During holidays, he would often take Howard to the park to play for a while. He would also teach him two moves when nothing happened. After Howard learned this, with his skills, he became the best among his peers. He is considered to be a pretty good player, and he also joined the school basketball team. He is quite popular in their school.
Later, Aaron went to college to focus on his studies, and then started working again. His free time became less and less, and he had less and less time to play with his little brother.
The last time we played together was last year. Aaron felt a little sorry for neglecting his little brother because he was too busy. He hugged Howard's shoulders and said, "I have been busy with a case recently. Let's wait until this case is finished. We can rest on the weekend." How about taking you to play basketball together one day?"
The last "how" was asked back to the two little guys following behind. He glanced at George again and saw George smiling and nodding.
Last time, Aaron took three kids with him, and they had a lot of food, drinks, and fun. When the two little guys heard that they were also invited, their eyes were bright.
"Dad?" The two little guys were quite obedient and knew to ask their parents first.
"Well, it depends on your performance. If you continue to perform well from now on, I will agree." George said with dignity, but his eyes were full of smiles.
"YES!" Howard heard what Aaron said, and his father agreed. He clenched his fists happily and said with joy, "Aaron, you have to teach me two more moves this time."
Aaron asked: "Oh? Did you practice the walking and turning around that I taught you last time?"
Howard said with a proud look on his face: "Humph, not only have I practiced, I also developed a combo on my own, turning around and shooting like a tiger, and I'll show you when the time comes!" He also gestured for a shot. action.
What the hell is the tiger-style shooting? I even smiled in the tiger-style. Could it be that I was shooting while shooting in the tiger-style? It was really eye-catching and very lethal...
Aaron, who was so imaginative, almost couldn't laugh out loud. Yes, this kid is almost reaching the second grade of middle school. Young man, you are starting to accumulate a dark history for yourself that you can't bear to look back on... This is special After a few years, when I think back, I may not really be smiling like a tiger...
"Okay, I'll teach you some other 'moves' next time." Aaron suppressed a smile and said to Howard seriously, "Young man, do you want to know the ultimate move that combines One Finger Zen and Lion's Roar?"
Howard was even happier after hearing this.
"Young men, hurry up and come down for dinner. Aren't you hungry?" Maybe after waiting for a long time, Helen's voice came from downstairs.
As the saying goes, "A half-grown boy will eat too much for me." The three boys of Stacey's family are growing up, and Aaron's appetite is a bottomless pit that can scare a big eater to death. Are you kidding me just now? Feeling that at the mention of eating, he ran downstairs with a huff and a whistle, making George, who was following behind, shake his head and laugh.
Orientals usually use a round table when gathering together, which symbolizes a happy reunion.
Westerners are accustomed to using long tables. The host and hostess sit opposite each other on the short sides. Starting from their right-hand sides, they start arranging their seats and seat guests who are close to them, and then family members. If they are close to the host and hostess, , or those who are not too close, sit on the right hand side of the male host.
George and Helen sat across from each other at the long table, Aaron, Howard and Phillip sat on one side, and Gwen and Simon sat on the other side.
However, Aaron was not a guest, but half a family member, and he was not very particular. Howard insisted on sitting next to Aaron, but Gwen couldn't bother him and sat opposite Aaron.
The three little guys usually drink milk, but today Aaron came and made an exception to drink Coke.
Gwen wanted to control her calorie intake and drank only water instead of drinks. Aron drove here and continued to drink his kvass, while George and Helen opened a bottle of red wine.
When it comes to what kind of food is the most delicious, one is really hungry, and the other is when there is someone who is very wolfish about eating. They eat together and look at it, and they feel hungry.
If these two things were put together, it would be the scene at Stacey's dinner table now.
Several boys were fighting at the dinner table like a storm.
Howard: "Sister, pass me the ribs."
Gwen: "Well, Aaron, please have some too."
Aaron: "Yeah."
Simon: "Mom, I also want a deviled egg."
Helen: "Okay, come on, Aaron, you can eat one too. Look at you, you've lost weight. You're alone at home, so you can't eat well. Don't always order takeout. Go home and eat when you have time."
Aaron: "Yeah, okay, okay."
At the dinner table, the family was having a good time. Not to mention the two older ones, George and Helen, both had great appetites. Even Gwen, who was now paying attention to her body shape and rarely ate at night, ate a few more bites. , the embarrassment of being bumped into by George in the room just now was put aside.
For those who cook, the most satisfying thing is that the diners love to eat so much that they even rush to eat. Helen kept smiling and watching the children gobble them up, feeling happy, especially since she has not been eating recently. Gwen, who loved to eat, ate more and was even more happy.
Aaron set a rhythm and then just followed the crowd. There was no exaggeration in turning all the plug-ins on. He followed what others were eating. When others were eating, he also slowed down. He couldn't really be a fool. The Jingtan envoys have all been rounded up, and they are not going to scare Stacey's family anymore.
So when the three Stacey boys all had full stomachs, put down their knives and forks and sat there burping, Aaron also ended the meal in time.
