Daily life of an American TV drama agent

Ron played and sang a song by himself, which left Raj and Howard stunned.

"How's it going? Do you like this song?"

"I love it so much! A song that covers everything from the Big Bang to the evolution of human civilization. This song is simply a work of genius!" Raj launched a star-eye offensive against Ron, but Ron nimbly dodged it.

"Why are you looking at me like that? It's so disgusting!"

"How can you say that to others? I look at you with admiration!"

Raj was aggrieved, but Ron was unmoved: "Adoration? I think you should look at lizards with admiration~ Bengal monitor lizard is good?"

"Bengal monitor lizard? How is it possible?" Howard searched for pictures on his phone with the curious attitude of a scientist: "Who would be interested in a creature that grows like this?"

"But it looks quite pretty." Raj looked at the pictures on his phone, his eyes flickering.

Ron quietly covered his butt and moved to another sofa. It is indeed you, Indian.

"Tomorrow is Father's Day. Stuart's comic store will hold an event and invite our band to play. Do you want to come with us?" Howard invited Ron: "If we can play this song together, it will definitely blow up the whole place! "

"Father's Day?" Ron looked at the date on his phone. After staying in another parallel time and space for a day, the time in his original world had not changed at all. It was still the date before he left: "I won't go on Father's Day. ”

"What, do you want to celebrate Father's Day too? Whose belly have you made pregnant?" Raj's eyes sparkled with gossip.

"Who said you have to make someone's belly bigger on Father's Day? Isn't the godfather the father? I'm just visiting Uncle Pritchett's house as the godfather. I wish you all a good time, but you can play me That song, I allowed it.”

"Going to visit relatives? Does Sheldon want to go with you? He has obviously made an appointment with us to go to the comic book store together."

"No, he doesn't need to go with him. The purpose of visiting relatives is to increase the relationship. If you bring Sheldon with you, it will be to make enemies." Ron said.

After listening, Raj and Howard nodded with deep understanding.

It had been agreed before to visit Pritchett's house on Father's Day. Early the next morning, Ron came to Pritchett's villa in Beverly Hills with gifts.

"Good morning, Uncle Pritchett, this is your gift," Ron put a box on the floor: "I heard that you have handed over the company to Claire. I hope this thing can help you spend some retirement time."

Pritchett did not rush to open the gift box, but shook it by his ear, and did not hear any special sound inside: "What is this?"

"A commemorative m1911 from Rock Island Arsenal, and a membership card from the Kangaroo Club. I think it is the most professional shooting club in Los Angeles. Of course, if you want to come to my base to play, I welcome you with both hands. I remember you have many people your age. Old people who are about the same age or older than you can play with you, but their level is a bit high, so I'm worried that you might not be able to keep up."

"Hey! What do you think of me?" Pritchett felt a little uncomfortable: "I am a serious retired navy! My marksmanship is definitely much better than ordinary people! In this family, except for you, my Marksmanship should be the best!"

"I'm just making sausages. You can eat a little first, but don't eat too much. This is today's main meal."

"Ding dong~" Just as he was talking, the doorbell rang again. This time it was Gloria who opened the door, but he only glanced outside and closed the door again.

"Gloria? Who is outside?" Priget asked strangely.

"My sister, Sonya."

"Since your sister is here, why don't you invite her in?" Pritchett walked over and opened the door: "Sorry, come in quickly, you came all the way here and sit here for a while."

"Hello Uncle Ron, hello Aunt Sonya~" Manny came down from upstairs and said hello politely.

"I still have some luggage in the car, can you help me get it?" Sonya pointed to the van outside, and Manny readily agreed.

"Why did you let her in?" After the two of them had left the door, Gloria went over to question her husband angrily.

"You have to talk to her, I think she's here to apologize."

"You don't know her as well as I do..."

As Gloria was talking, Sonya, who led Manny to the car, suddenly opened the car door, kicked Manny inside, quickly locked the door, and drove away in the car, leaving Pritchett stunned at the door. .

"Great! Now he kidnapped Manny." Gloria patted Pritchett on the shoulder and walked into the house without looking back, as if the person who was kidnapped was not his own son.

Pritchett asked anxiously: "Why are you so calm? Shouldn't we follow them or call the police?"

"It's just a kidnapping. In Colombia, this kind of thing is very normal. It's as common as brushing your teeth and washing your face." Ron quickly cleared a plate of sausages and wiped his mouth with a napkin. "Don't forget, it's the largest in the United States." One of several drug sources, what do you think drug dealers are doing when they are not selling drugs? Worshiping in church, or going to factories to tighten screws?"

"I almost forgot, you're still here, Ron, what do you think we should do now?" Noticing Ron's presence, Pritchett asked eagerly as if he had found a savior.

"Don't worry, there are certain fixed procedures for kidnapping. I think Gloria should be familiar with the way things are done back home, right?" Ron looked at Gloria, who nodded confidently.

Sure enough, the phone rang after a while. Gloria picked up the phone, chatted a few words in Spanish and then hung up.

"how's it going?"

"He wanted me to trade the hot sauce business for Manny."

The hot sauce business was a sideline business that Gloria came up with when she had nothing to do not long ago. She carefully cooked it using the secret recipe passed down from her hometown. When the first batch of hot sauce was made, she even gave Ron two bottles of it. Even Sheldon was so picky. Everyone likes it so much that they designate this spicy sauce as their own Thai food night, replacing the Thai sweet and spicy sauce that comes with the restaurant's dishes.

It's just that because there is no good sales channel, apart from giving them as gifts to relatives and friends, I haven't sold a few bottles in total.

"Great, then she owes us 400 US dollars! And the child can come back." Pritchett clapped his hands happily.

"No way!" Gloria said decisively.

"Wise decision!" Ron clapped his hands. He now appreciates this decisive woman more and more.

"That's our child! Ron! Now I really wonder if I made a wrong decision? If one day Joe is in danger, will you sit back and watch like you are now? That's your godson!"

Pritchett looked a little angry, Ron poured a cup of coffee and put it in front of him: "This is not about sitting idly by, Uncle Pritchett, in my opinion, this is the correct way to deal with kidnappers, the first step , First of all, you cannot let yourself be led by the kidnapper's demands, otherwise you will always be passive."

"Really? Is it because you don't want to take care of it?" After drinking some coffee, Pritchett finally calmed down and continued to ask in a suspicious tone: "But what about Manny?"

"If this is a real kidnapper, then I will arrange for people to track him, and then pay the ransom to attract his attention, and take the opportunity to quickly raid the location of the hostages and rescue them.

But this isn’t the real kidnapper, Sonya is still Manny’s aunt, right? "

Gloria nodded.

"That's even simpler. According to Colombian tradition, unless it's betrayal, you will never kill your family, so the decision is in our hands."

"What do you mean? I don't understand." Although Pritchett has made his business so big, he knows nothing about the underworld.

"Ron means, we don't need to pay attention to her, we have all the leverage."

"But he has your son on his hands!"

"So what? Ron also said it just now, didn't you understand?" Gloria remained calm: "What can she do to Manny? Raise him for us? It won't be long before she takes the initiative to send Manny away. return."

"Forget it, I don't care about you. You just need to bring Manny back. I want to have a few more drinks. This is obviously my holiday!" Pritchett drank the coffee that had been replaced with wine at some point. All.

"Ding dong~"

The doorbell rang again, and this time before anyone could open the door, the door opened by itself, and in came the Dunphy family, Mitchell and little Carly's family.

"You are finally here. You don't know what a wonderful show you just missed."

Ron walked next to Claire and Mitchell and said gloatingly. He noticed that the two siblings had different expressions. Ron seemed to smell the gossip: "Wait, it seems that it's not just Uncle Pritchett's side, but your side. There seems to be a story too?”

"Listen to me, it's like this. Xiaoka's grandma, the one who called me a sissy, died, and I was alone with her at the moment of his death. Now their whole family thinks that I was the one who contributed to the incident."

Ron was puzzled: "This doesn't sound like much, as long as Xiaoka is on your side, doesn't it?"

"That's the problem. Kawhi is completely on the side of his family!" Mitchell said angrily.

"But that's not what I heard. Lily told me just now that Xiaoka's grandma left gifts for everyone in her will, including you, you know? If I hate someone, I will never Leave him anything in your will, even a sock.”

"Really? That's great!" Mitchell happily walked towards little Carly on the sofa, where, as Ron said, she had already begun to open gifts.

Ron was curious and followed him with a wine glass.

"This is yours. Grandma gave you a watch." Lily opened the box, took out the note inside and read: "The letter said that your grandfather took this off the wrist of a German prisoner, and now it belongs to you. "

"It's so touching." Xiao Ka gently stroked his watch and burst into tears.

Ron glanced sideways. The key to the watch was indeed very old, but the brand was a British brand. Do Germans always wear British watches? This is just a joke~

It seems that Xiaoka's usual talk of talking about trains should be a family tradition of bragging.

At this time, the benefits of not bringing Sheldon together are reflected. If Sheldon appears again, he will definitely expose Grandma Xiaoka’s lies and make everyone unable to stand down.

But Ron would only praise her beauty without conscience, and ask Lily to open the next gift quickly.

"This should be yours, second dad." Lily took out a delicate box from the suitcase and handed it to Mitchell.

"Let me see what's written in the letter?" Mitchell opened the letter full of expectation: "'When Xiaoka brought you home for the first time, I thought I would never be happy with you. I was taught to hate people like you, but when I saw you making my grandson so happy, I couldn't help but care about you.' Xiaoka, I misunderstood her."

"Yeah, let me just say you misunderstood her, right? Let's keep our hearts to ourselves first..."

Xiaoka nervously grabbed the letter paper from Mitchell's hand, but Ron's sharp eyes noticed that there was another line on the letter paper: "Wait, there seems to be another line of words here. You haven't finished reading it yet, what's written next?"

"Really? Let's see, besides you, who else is more suitable for my beloved Oriental Fan? I hope he won't make you too homesick."

Mitchell continued to read, but became more and more confused: "Why do I feel homesick when I see a fan?"

"I don't think this is for you." Ron put the fan into Lily's hand. Sure enough, the Oriental folding fan matched the Asian Lily better.

"Oh yes, my great-grandmother said before that she would give me a fan, and this is mine~" Lily happily jumped up holding the fan.

"What about my gift?"

"OK, the time for opening gifts is over, we'll talk about the rest when we get home."

Xiaoka was so nervous that he started to sweat on his head. Ron didn't mind watching the excitement and found it more interesting. He opened the suitcase with his feet while Xiaoka wasn't paying attention. Only one bag was left inside. A transparent pouch for lipstick.

"If you put all your gifts in one suitcase, I think this should be your gift." Ron handed the bag to Mitchell and picked up the letter himself: "'All my old lipsticks, Just use it well! Big sissy!' Haha, she is really an interesting old lady..."

"Ding dong~"

Just when the scene finally reached a very bloody moment, the doorbell unfortunately rang again.

This time it was Sonya who sent Manny back, and Gloria's eyes were as proud as Pritchett's, as if to say: Look, I just said it would be like this, right?

"I guess there are some issues that need to be resolved between you husband and wife, so I won't bother you. I'll go over there and have a look. Don't forget to tell me the result later."

Ron picked up Lily and said, "Manny was kidnapped just now. Do you want to hear the story of the kidnapping?"

This Father's Day is really messy, but I like it~
