The Best Entertainment Era

The sun slowly sank into the horizon, and the sky gradually darkened. All the lights in the manor were turned on in an instant. In the brightly lit restaurant, the housekeeper Nikia and her servants brought plates of exquisite meals from the kitchen.

Jessica Felton directed the servants to place the meals on the dining table according to her plan.

It's Thanksgiving tonight, Jessica Felton's first Thanksgiving with Ronan, so she's going to decorate.

Cranberry moss jam, sweet potato, corn, pumpkin pie, bread baked to a golden brown, and a variety of fruits and vegetables.

The essential turkey is still in the oven, waiting to be served when dinner begins.

These are dinners specially prepared by the kitchen according to Jessica Felton's request.

Of course, Jessica Felton didn't cook any meals herself, because she was self-aware, and the things she made were not poisonous, but few people could eat them.

Nikia took the servant to bring the meal for the second time.

Jessica Felton sets the table in her hometown style.

Fruits and vegetables are placed on the periphery. In order to reduce the troubles of the servants, Jessica Felton gave full play to the style of talking but not doing, and asked the two servants who brought the big pumpkin: Has the pumpkin been hollowed out?

The middle-aged maid replied: It's been hollowed out.

Jessica Felton pointed to the dining table and ordered: Put the pumpkin in the middle of the dining table. After the two servants put the pumpkin away, they said, Put the dried fruits that have been peeled into the pumpkin. Nikia, What about the candle you prepared? Put one on top of the pumpkin, and let Ronan light it when the meal is served.

Nikia came to the dining table with a candle, put the candle up in the reserved slot, and asked, Is this a custom in your place?

Jessica Felton said: It was evolved from the people in my hometown combined with some habits in Mexico. It has been passed down for decades. I don't know the details. My parents celebrated Thanksgiving. That’s how the table is set.”

Although it felt a little strange, Nikia didn't say anything, and prepared Thanksgiving dinner exactly as Jessica Felton wanted.

Jessica Felton looked at the table with satisfaction and asked Nikia, How long will the turkey be ready?

It's ready to serve, Nikia said.

Jessica Felton asked curiously: How did Ronan spend Thanksgiving before?

Nikia thought of the beautiful women who had been passing by, and said insincerely: It's the same as usual.

Jessica Felton didn't ask any more questions, and said, Bring the turkey up, I'll call Ronan.

A few minutes later, accompanied by Jessica Felton, Ronan walked into the restaurant, and the first thing he saw was the large pumpkin in the center of the dining table.

I remember that Halloween has passed. Ronan came to the table.

Jessica Felton took out a small and exquisite lighter from her pocket, stuffed it into Ronan's hand, and said, Go, light that candle.

Ronan was puzzled: What kind of custom is this?

Having said that, he still lit the candle according to Jessica Felton's words.

That's when the dinner started. Ronan picked up the knife, sliced ​​the roasted dark brown turkey, and carefully sliced ​​it for Jessica Felton.

Jessica Felton has been looking at Ronan, with a charming smile on her beautiful and delicate face.

A smile of happiness and love.

Afterwards, she also picked up the table knife, cut bread and pumpkin pie and other side dishes, and placed them in front of Ronan.

Seeing the cut turkey placed in front of me,

Jessica Felton said: Thank you, honey.

With a smile, Ronan would fetch Chinese marinade and salt and pepper, sprinkle it on his plate of turkey, and ask, Would you like to try it?

As a native of Southern California, Jessica Felton didn't like these. She brought cranberry moss jam and said, This is more suitable for me.

Food and beverage tastes vary greatly depending on the region. Some people's mouths are super delicious, but others may be very poisonous.

This is the simplest and most common phenomenon.

Therefore, Ronan never let Jessica Felton adapt to his taste. Anyway, he has the conditions, and it is just a piece of cake in the kitchen to make different tastes of meals.

Ronan swallowed the roasted turkey in his mouth, pointed to the candle on the jack-o-lantern, and asked, Honey, what is this for? Why haven't I seen such a Thanksgiving custom in Southern California?

I don't know exactly what it is for. Jessica Felton said truthfully: It is generally related to blessings and the like. My hometown will do this on Thanksgiving, but it is only limited to my parents. The town where my home is located, leaving that town, the customs are different.

Ronan nodded, expressing his understanding. When he lived on the other side of the Pacific Ocean, such situations were seen too many times. For example, weddings and funerals that are very important to a person, not to mention the difference between cities, sometimes two neighboring villages Customs are different.

For example, in the two villages across the river, the custom in the south is to hold a big wedding, the more extravagant the appointment.

But the custom in the north is to hold a big funeral. A funeral can cost more than 100,000 to 200,000 yuan for half a month.

There are many people who have returned to poverty due to marriage, and many have returned to poverty due to funerals.

Thinking of what? Jessica Felton asked.

Ronan came back to his senses and asked, I seldom hear you talk about your parents.

Jessica Felton said simply: They live in a small town in San Diego and they are doing well. I visit them every two months.

Ronan picked up the cup: I wish them happiness and health.

Thank you. Jessica Felton picked up the cup and touched Ronan.

Ronan didn't ask about Jessica Felton's parents anymore. There are many elders here, and there are also many independent ones. There are even quite a large proportion of people who seldom contact their parents after they grow up, like Jessica Felton. There are not many people like Sika Felton who do not live in the same city as their parents, but visit them regularly.

In a warm atmosphere, the two enjoyed a Thanksgiving dinner, and then went for a walk in the garden together.

The sky is completely dark, the sky is fine tonight, the moon is in the sky, and the brilliance is scattered all over the ground.

Walking on the moonlit garden path, there are blooming irises on both sides, and the faint fragrance of flowers keeps coming, which is very romantic.

The two held hands tightly, and neither of them spoke to break the rare tranquility and warmth.

They all know very well that it is not easy to be together, and they cherish it very much.

Mature people, although they lack the desperate impulse when emotions explode, they know how to get along better.

In this world, the more violent the beginning, the faster the end.

The sudden ringing of the phone broke the tranquility and warmth between Ronan and Jessica Felton, and the music ringing spread far and wide in the empty garden.

Ronan took out his phone helplessly, looked at the number, and said, Tom.

Jessica Felton knows who this Tom is, one of Ronan's best friends - Tom Cruise.

Roan walked a few steps forward by himself before answering the phone: Hi, Tom, what's the matter?

It's okay. Tom Cruise didn't sound very emotional: I'm depressed after drinking, and I want to talk to someone.

Thinking that today is Thanksgiving, Ronan asked, Are you alone tonight?

Although he retired from being a lumberjack, Tom Cruise is still a very active lumberjack, and with his name and ability, it shouldn't be hard to find someone to spend Thanksgiving night with.

Tom Cruise's voice was low: I had an appointment, but I received a call in the afternoon. Nicole Kidman invited me, my lonely ex-husband, to spend Thanksgiving with her and her current husband. Lost interest and turned off the date.

Ronan really didn't know what to say for a while. In the United States, similar situations are not uncommon. If the relationship is good enough, it is not uncommon for couples to invite the ex of a certain party to be a guest. to the child's family.

Do Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman really want to be entangled with each other for a lifetime?

You know what, Ronan! I'm going crazy, I've had enough! Tom Cruise's voice was not high, but his speech was fast: I'm disgusted, I want to vomit!

Ronan could only comfort him: Calm down, Tom. Calm down, it's useless to get excited.

There was silence on the phone for a while, and Tom Cruise's voice returned to normal: I'm all bad. Ronan, I see... no, I just want to think, blonde, fair skin, tall, as long as Thinking of this kind of woman makes me sick to my stomach...

Ronan can fully understand this kind of reaction. Thanks to the tireless efforts of Nicole Kidman, Tom Cruise is suffering from ex-wife syndrome.

Tom Cruise's questioning voice rang in his ears: Ronan, what should I do? Am I hopeless?

Hearing the continuous questions, Ronan thought for a while, pretending to be serious and said: Tom, I will give you a suggestion for self-help.

What advice? Tom Cruise asked.

Ronan said in a very serious tone: Go and date a black girl.

Uh... Tom Cruise over there understood the cold joke, couldn't help laughing, and said, By the way, what did Will say about the Williams sisters? I don't want to turn off the lights just I can see the teeth.

Tom Cruise's mood improved significantly, and he said, Anything tonight? How about we go to the bar?

Ronan said: Go to Will, I won't accompany you.

Tom Cruise understood: Okay, a good man who is dedicated, stay with your girlfriend.

After hanging up the phone, Ronan put away the phone, returned to Jessica Felton, and said, Wait in a hurry?

Jessica Felton shook her head: It's okay.

Ronan said simply: Tom is in a bad mood, I have a few more words with him.

Jessica Felton nodded slightly: Let's go, let's go back.

Well, go back. Ronan pulled her up and left: It's such a beautiful night, we can't waste time, we have to cherish every minute and every second.
