Chapter 1979 Bad Questions

"Try it," John took out a cigar when he saw Feng Yiping following him.

"Thank you," Feng Yiping waved his hand. He was not interested in either thick cigars or thin cigarettes.

John also knew this, so Feng Yiping felt that he should have something to say to him.

"We plan to keep this lane and widen and lengthen it appropriately so that it can become a roller skating lane, allowing Vincent to skate, skateboard, or other similar sports at home,"

"Here, I want to install a trampoline that is flush with the ground. There, it can just be used as a basketball court..."

Feng Yiping thought John wanted to tell him about the renovation, so he talked endlessly about his and Ma Ling's plan.

Because now his image is becoming more and more widely known, and coupled with his own particularity in personal relationships, it is obviously not suitable to take Vincent to some public places to do such exercises.

Most of the parent-child time with Vincent can only be at home, which was also the original intention of him and Ma Ling in planning this renovation.

"Oh," John was stunned for a moment, then walked back and forth with his cigar, as if he was measuring it with his steps, "If you want to have a more interesting time with Vincent at home, such a modification is not impossible, but since You put so much effort into renovating it, so why not buy a piece of land and build a new one? That would definitely have the best effect,"

"As for here, whether it is selling or holding, it is actually good. I am optimistic about the housing prices in Silicon Valley,"

"It's really a good suggestion, but I like this place," Los Gatos, both in terms of its natural environment and the makeup of its residents, is very suitable for settling down.

This area in particular is a good place to get some peace and quiet from the hustle and bustle, and it's also close to the mountain.

"Then demolish everything, expand the area, redesign, and rebuild."

In fact, John also felt that at least this residence was a bit inappropriate for Feng Yiping's status. His houses were bigger and more luxurious than this one.

"This..." Although he knew that it was definitely the best thing to do, Feng Yiping pondered for a moment.

"Oh, I understand," John immediately switched from his identity as a real estate agent to his identity as Ma Ling's father, "You want to keep a low profile,"

This is indeed a piece of old ginger. It is so easy to understand why Feng Yiping would rather renovate than build a new one.

"Before Google went public, we were followed and filmed by many reporters. I think this kind of thing will happen in the future," Feng Yiping said.

That is natural. In the future, whether it is Facebook or the multiple sections under NEXTDOOR, many of them will have to be listed. By then, the same situation will probably happen again.

Besides, in such a community where each family has one house, if a huge mansion is built on a large area, doesn't it deliberately draw the attention of those who are interested?

This is a somewhat embarrassing question.

Because when this issue is mentioned, they will naturally think that Ma Ling and Vincent, at least for a period of time, must bear such an invisible identity.

John turned his head to the side and puffed on his cigar.

After a moment of silence, both of them felt something was wrong, "John..." "There's something..." The two of them spoke almost at the same time.

"You first," Feng Yiping actually realized just now that what John wanted to talk to him at the beginning was not about the reconstruction.

"Well," John seemed a little embarrassed to say, "Annie..."

"Gentlemen," Heidi came over, "have we discussed it yet?"

"Their plan is pretty good," John said. "I'll take a look around."

Holding a cigar in his mouth, he walked to the empty house, looked around, and knocked on the walls and pillars.

"Don't mind it, that's just him," Heidi said with a smile.

"I can understand," Feng Yiping said.

"Feng," Heidi pulled Feng Yiping, "There is something I want to tell you."

Both husband and wife have something to tell themselves.

"you say,"

"Annie is usually very nice, but every time when her relationship is not going well, she doesn't care too much about the feelings of others. Usually at this time, Ma Ling will be her target, sisters, you know,"

So that’s what happened!

"I know that generally speaking, families with multiple siblings, that is, if the age gap between the siblings is relatively large, and the eldest one is a boy, the relationship will be better,"

"Oh Heidi, I didn't mean anything sexist,"

"I understand. You are right. Ma Ling and Annie, especially Annie, often compete with Ma Ling. So, if she said something in the past two days..."

"It doesn't matter," Feng Yiping said immediately.

He glanced at John and thought that this was what John wanted to tell him.

They were so worried about their feelings now that they didn't expect such a big change when they first met in Hawaii.

"Heidi, I want to ask, who wins more times in the wars between Marling and Annie?"

"Haha," Heidi really didn't expect that Feng Yiping would actually care about this issue, "Of course it's Ma Ling. She hasn't let Annie go since she entered the third grade. From then on, whether it was with words or with hands, most of them It was Anne who had the upper hand,"

"Why, can't you tell?"

"I'm trying to imagine that,"

I really can't tell that Ma Ling is not that submissive and gentle in front of me, but it is still far from the powerful image Heidi described.

"Yes, when I was a child, there were many boys who would hold love letters and run away from her in tears. Now, who can imagine it? It's also because she found the right person,"

Feng Yiping didn't know how to answer this.

"Come on, we have to go to the front and take a look. I'm worried that the two of them will fight in front of Vincent." Heidi also immediately changed the subject.

"What about John?"

"Him? Humph, didn't you see, did he avoid it on purpose?"

Well, Feng Yiping wanted to laugh a little. He also didn't expect that John, an authentic old white man from the South of the United States, would have such passive escape at home, and it seemed that this was not the first time.

…………

A little worried, Heidi took Feng Yiping back to the front. In the hall, she only saw Annie lying on the sofa with pillows in her arms. There were all kinds of potato chips and snacks on her body, on the floor, and on the coffee table. Vincent looked like Like an obedient little assistant, she changed the TV channel according to her instructions.

"Where's Ma Ling?"

"I beat her away," Annie clapped her hands twice.

"No, Dad, Mom is in the kitchen preparing dinner,"

"Really?" Annie picked up Vincent, pinched his little face and said, "You little guy, like your mother, you like to tell."

"No, it wasn't me who snitched," Vincent said loudly with a smile, "It was you who lied, auntie."

This kid can really grasp the key points of things.

However, it seems that Anne still likes her nephew very much and does not know how to restrain her negative emotions at all.

"Heidi, please take a rest first,"

Vincent immediately ran off his aunt, "Grandma, are you tired? There is hot cocoa that I like very much. Would you like a cup?"

"Why don't you know how to give your aunt a drink?" Annie shouted, "Don't you love your aunt too?"

"I'm going to see Ma Ling," Feng Yiping said.

He felt that it would be better to stay away from the manic Anne, so as not to suffer the same fate as Ma Ling.

Annie watched Feng Yiping hurriedly walk towards the kitchen and called, "Brother-in-law,"

"Annie," Feng Yiping didn't stop and turned around with a smile.

"Brother-in-law, don't leave, I have a question to ask you,"

Feng Yiping immediately quickened his pace. This was definitely not a good problem.

Anne looked at Feng Yiping as if he was running away and couldn't help but laugh, "Brother-in-law, have you ever thought about going to Utah and joining the Mormons (who believe in plural marriage, specifically polygamy)?"

Feng Yiping paused for a moment, this Annie really dared to say anything.

Fortunately, I walked fast.

Behind him, Vincent asked, "Auntie, what is Mormonism?"

Then came Anne's cry of pain, "Heidi, stop, stop, stop,"

Feng Yiping quietly looked back and saw that Heidi was using the sofa pillow next to her as a weapon and throwing it at Annie. Vincent was also happily standing on the same front as his grandmother.

Annie, who was quick-talking just now, will only be beaten passively now.

"Well done!"

Hey, I didn’t say anything?

He looked back and saw Ma Lingdu, wearing an apron, ran out of the kitchen and stood watching from a distance, with a very excited face and looking like he wanted to join the throw of pillows.

As soon as she saw Feng Yiping, she immediately ran over with a smile, "Ping, the cake is baked, come and try it."
