Chapter 43 Section 43

SALLY made up her mind to buy a car this time, and she said to CAROL: "I can't do it anymore. After Jason graduates and leaves, Jingqiu also graduates and leaves. I'm really embarrassed to ask other people to buy a car. If I start now Learn to drive, and when they leave, they will probably be able to drive." SALLY's words also reminded CAROL, she thought, I should also buy a car, if Jason graduates and goes to another state, I can drive to see him.If I don't know how to drive and it's troublesome to go to the airport, it's like being separated from him in two worlds.Now I can let him teach me how to drive while he is still here.

She has been in the United States for more than half a year, and she has saved some money from the scholarship. Her mother asked her to bring some money from her grandmother. She planned to use it for living expenses and part of the tuition after transferring to D University. Just put it there.That's more than enough money to buy a used car. She called her mother and said she wanted to buy a car. By the way, she exaggerated the pain of not having a car.My mother understood very well, and had no objection to buying a car. She just told her to be careful when driving. Don’t drive when it’s raining, don’t drive if you haven’t slept well, and don’t go to places with many cars. It’s better to stop for three minutes than grab a second. , Wait, everything a person who doesn't know how to drive can think of is said, and the tone of the speech seems to wish she could drag the car every day.

She thought, mothers are like this, always thinking that their children can't think of anything stupidly, and have to be explained by mothers nagging.When I become a mother, I must remember not to be so blunt. For some reason, she often thinks about being a mother recently, and when she thinks about it, she seems to see a little boy who looks very much like Jason running around her, his face covered in sweat, and she says to the little boy: " Go, tell your father to come back for dinner." The little boy called out childishly: "Dad, mother asked you to come back for dinner!" Then Jason came back from outside and asked, "Honey, what's delicious today? "Then the family of three sat at the table to eat.Thinking of this scene, she felt that such a life was really sweet, very simple and even vulgar, but every detail and every little thing became very sweet because of Jason.

Mom now asks about Jason every time she calls, as if she is more anxious than she is. I am afraid that she is not caring enough and will let such a good person go, making her afraid to call her mother. She always feels a little bit guilty. It seems that the task assigned by the party has not been completed, and I am embarrassed to report to the party. But what reassured her was that there seemed to be no girls visiting Jason, not even Amy and Fang Xing.He stays at home most of the time, his car is always parked in front of the door.He said that having a girlfriend must have lied to her, but she couldn't figure out why he would lie to her like this.The only explanation was that he had some unspeakable secrets, and he had no choice but to avoid it for fear of hurting her.Time, she thought, would make him realize that no matter what he was hiding, she loved him.

According to the method Jason told them, she and SALLY first searched for the situation of "PREOWNED" cars on a website, then checked KELLEY BLUE BOOK, compared the prices on it to see if the prices offered by the sellers were fair or not, and then selected a few and typed them. Call, make an appointment to see the car and test drive, and then ask Jason, Jing Qiu or Feng Chao to take them to see the car.If you like it, you can drive to a nearby car repair shop and ask someone to do a BUYER CHECK. If the CHECK is no big deal, you can make a decision. CAROL set a wider price range with himself, so he quickly bought a four-year-old car with the same color as Jason's. SALLY then also bought a six-year-old car.

After buying the car, the two of them focused on learning how to drive, and asked whoever caught them to teach them.Feng Chao has also been recruited several times as a strong man, but Feng Chao loves nagging, and makes a fuss to criticize people for anything wrong. In the end, only SALLY can bear it, and CAROL can't bear his nagging. After asking him to teach him twice, he will not teach.She originally hoped that Jason would teach him, but she only asked Feng Chao to teach him because he was not at home sometimes and was very busy at home. Now that he is so annoying, she simply did not ask him to teach.

Seeing that she was angry, Feng Chao explained: "Didn't you hear that there are some couples who teach cars and then they get divorced? It means that this is the way of teaching cars. If the master is not strict, he is irresponsible to the apprentice. You are so willful, I dare not let you drive, don't let anything happen to you." She snapped at him angrily: "You talk nonsense, if I get into an accident with my car, you'll be the one to blame." After she said it, she regretted it very much.She herself didn't know why she was so cruel to Feng Chao, who gave me the right to be so cruel to him?Could it be that if he has a good impression of me, he should be so fierce to him?If this theory holds true, then Jason should be very cruel to me.

She endured again and asked Feng Chao to teach her a few times.It can be seen that Feng Chao is trying his best not to nudge her, but he may be too worried about her, so he always starts nagging again unknowingly.In the end, every time Feng Chao taught her to drive, it annoyed her, so after teaching the car, Feng Chao still came to accompany her, coaxing her to let him teach next time. She also asked Jason to teach her twice, but she felt that Jason didn't talk, he sat next to him, didn't talk much, let her drive by herself, and said a few key words, most of the time he said "good driving, very straight "This corner is good" and "This car has a playful PA", she was full of elation and confidence.She thought, is this because "the relatives are strict, and the sparse ones are lenient"?Feng Chao regards me as a very close person, so he is particularly worried and strict, while Jason only regards me as a person who learns to drive, so he doesn't care much?

After she asked Jingqiu to teach twice, she changed her mind, because Jingqiu, like Jason, focused on encouragement, and she spoke clearly and concisely. nagging.She thought that maybe Jingqiu and Jason were born to be teachers. Both of them knew how to explain clearly, explain the profound things in a simple way, demonstrate the essentials, and focus on encouragement instead of uncontrollably chattering. Judging from the matter of teaching cars, it is impossible for Feng Chao to be Chutian, because Chutian is at least at the level of Jason and Jingqiu. , and the way to realize the intention is also rational and efficient.Unwise care and love are sometimes not a kind of happiness, but a kind of burden, just like the bear, in order to drive away the mosquitoes on the face of the owner, he slapped the owner to death.

After getting her driver's license, CAROL wanted to drive farther away, at least on a highway with a speed limit of 65 miles. Now she has only run on a road with a speed limit of 40 miles. Is that also called a high speed?What frightened her the most was changing lanes, as if she couldn't see whether there was a car on the lane she wanted to change.In the end, she and SALLY invited Jason and Feng Chao to help each of them drive a car, and the two of them drove to an outlet mall 30 to 40 miles away with a car.For the sake of safety, SALLY didn't even bring Duoduo, and entrusted it to Jingqiu.

Jason said: "Feng Chao, you and CAROL's car, and I and SALLY's car." Feng Chao said: "It's your car and CAROL's. She has a big temper. I can't stand it. See how good SALLY is. She drives well and has no temper." She said angrily: "What do you mean? Push me around like a volleyball? None of you need to drive with me, I will drive by myself." Then, she got into the car and started the car. Jason hurried two steps, also got into the car, and said with a smile: "WOW, you have a big temper. If the car doesn't burn gasoline to burn your anger, then you will lose your temper. Don't drive a bad car, my life is very valuable. You can't afford it." She chuckled: "What can't you do? The big deal is to die for love. You can't be born in the same year, the same month, and the same day. It would be nice to die in the same year, the same month, and the same day." "Nonsense, slap!" He joked, "Say something like that on the highway today? If my grandma was here, I'd give you a slap in the face. I won't bother with you. Tongyan Wuji, Tongyan Wuji avoid." She purposely wore the same pair of shoes she wore when she was learning how to drive, because when she changed a pair of shoes, she couldn't find the feeling of stepping on the brake and accelerator.When driving, she can only sit upright and dare not even bend her waist, let alone play music or talk to Jason, she can only concentrate on it.When she drove into the mall, her back was sweaty and sore. Only then did she understand Feng Chao's feeling when driving to the airport for the first time. A few people wandered around the mall, and there seemed to be nothing to buy, mainly because they didn't plan to buy anything, but just wanted to practice driving at high speed.However, there is a lottery sale going on in the mall. Several stores are united. If you buy enough items worth 20 yuan, you can go to a box to draw a lottery on the spot with the receipt. If the drawn lottery ticket number is the same as the announced number, you will win up.The first prize was a small car, not a fancy make, but always a new car.The other awards include HD TVs and so on. They are all there, very attractive. Feng Chao immediately became interested in that car, and went shopping in a hurry. CAROL and SALLY were also tempted. They might get a car for only 20 yuan. Why don't you give it a try? Jason said to CAROL, last time you gave me two T-shirts, I promised to give you something, because I didn't know what you needed, so I didn't send it, now you have chosen me to pay for it. After choosing for a while, I realized that there was nothing to buy, and none of them were important, otherwise they wouldn't be used for prize sales.In the end, SALLY chose a bicycle, saying that it was too big, but she could ride it after a few years.Feng Chao bought a vacuum cleaner and said that the landlord's is what he is using now, and he can use it when he moves. CAROL chose a set of knives. She likes a wide variety of things. It doesn’t matter if they are useful or not.I don't know if that set of knives is practical or not, but the handles and blades of the knives are exquisite in workmanship, and she can't put it down after seeing it.It's just a bit expensive, more than 40 yuan. Seeing how much she couldn't put it down, Jason rushed to pay for her, and said, "It seems that you really like it, so buy it. If my grandma is here, she must not let me give you a knife. I'm afraid it's unlucky. You Be careful when using a knife, don't make me regret it for the rest of my life." CAROL said: "Don't worry, how can I be willing to use this knife? It must be used as a decoration to decorate my small glass cabinet." All three of them went to the lottery draw, and they drew several times, but they didn't draw anything. It made people suspect that the number of the lieutenant general was not on the lottery ticket in the box at all, but everyone had no real evidence, so they had to guess.Several people comforted themselves by saying that if you didn’t get it, you didn’t get it, anyway, these things will have to be bought sooner or later. Then I went to a PIZZA restaurant to have lunch. During the dinner, CAROL took out the knives he bought to look at.Each pair was covered with a cardboard sleeve, and she took them out one by one, guessing what they were used for, this one was for cutting vegetables, the one with serrated teeth might be for cutting bread, and the one for peeling fruit. Ham's, wait.But there was a small knife with edges on both sides, and the blade and the tip were very sharp. No one could guess what it was for. Feng Chao jokingly said, "Maybe it was a murderer." Carol said: "Such a small knife kills people? Can it kill people?" "Why can't it be killed?" Feng Chao said sophisticatedly, "If the carotid artery is cut with one knife, it is guaranteed to be fatal." "Where is the carotid artery? Who can be so accurate?" CAROL said with a smile, "Maybe it is used for suicide?" As he spoke, he put it on his wrist and gestured. While gesturing, I suddenly heard Jason shout: "CAROL!" She stopped her hands, looked up at him, and found that his face was livid, and his eyes were staring straight at her with an expression of fear or anger, which made her stay there in fright, not knowing how she had offended him. Suddenly, Jason reached across the table, grabbed her wrist vigorously, and snatched the knife away. She had never seen him like this before, his wrists hurt from being scratched, and she was so wronged that tears flowed down her cheeks.Several people stood there in shock, looking at each other shyly. Finally, SALLY walked over to Jason, took the knife from his hand, and whispered, "What are you doing? You scared Carol. She was just joking..." Jason said reluctantly: "What kind of joke is not easy to make, such a joke? What if you miss it? I will return this set of knives." Feng Chao said: "It's unlikely to be refunded, right? The prizes have been drawn, so why not?" SALLY put the knife back into the cardboard case, returned it to CAROL, and said: "No refund, no refund, no refund, no refund, keep it for yourself, anyway, you need a knife." Then it was like coaxing a child She said to everyone, "Okay, I've bought things and eaten lunch, it's time to go back." She patted Jason and said, "Don't worry, we are all grown-ups, and nothing will happen." CAROL was so frightened by Jason that he didn't have the mind to drive at all, and said to him, "You just drive back. I'm sure something will happen if I drive now." Jason drove the car without saying a word, and he didn't speak for a long time. CAROL didn't dare to speak either. Sometimes she would sneak a glance at him, thinking that when he was silent, she really frightened her, unfathomable, and didn't know what he was thinking.She thought, in the future, you must find out what things he doesn't like, otherwise you will get mad at him, and if you don't say anything, you will be anxious to death. After a long time, she heard him say: "CAROL, I'm sorry, I shouldn't lose my temper with you." "Can you tell me, what did I do wrong?" She asked carefully, "Just tell me so that I can pay attention to it in the future." "It's nothing, I'm afraid of seeing you kids playing with knives. I'm dizzy with blood and knives. If you make gestures with knives, my legs will go weak." "But I'm not a child, why do you always treat me like a child?" She complained, "I'm already twenty-five, still young?" He didn't answer her question, just said: "Remember to put the knife in a place out of reach when you go back, don't let a child touch it in his hand, and make something happen."
