Daily life of an American TV drama agent

Chapter 425 Pritchett’s Family Reunion

Thanks to Ron's early precautions, Leonard and the others' windfall was not wasted. However, when he and everyone enjoyed the "blockbuster" starring "the actor who looks like Penny" Leonard always felt very uncomfortable.

This feeling, to describe it in Ron's words, is like a green grassland growing out of a tight head, and a wolf that can never catch a sheep, playing games with a group of lambs.

"Hahaha, what did you tell that science kid later?" Jay Pritchett laughed heartily while holding a wine glass.

"Then I told him, 'Hey, man, take it easy, everyone here has seen your girlfriend naked, do you remember the big movies she made?' Yeah, Jay, remember. Did I tell you about the girl I shared a room with who was in the "Killer" movie? She's Science Guy's girlfriend."

Ron clinked the wine glass with Jay and happily told Leonard's embarrassing story. Today is another day for the Pritchett family gathering.

Under the leadership of Jay, the Pritchett family is a very united family and gathers together almost every week. In most cases, Ron has his own affairs to be busy with, so he doesn't participate much unless it is a major festival. , or two very important things happened like today.

First, today is Jay Pritchett’s birthday, and second, Alex, Jay’s granddaughter and Ron’s cousin Claire’s second daughter, was admitted to Caltech!

"Wow, wow, wow, that kid looks like he's good at picking up girls." Jay took a sip of whiskey and said, "Before you told me this, I thought Caltech was all weirdos like Sheldon. Sorry, this is It might not be nice to say your brother.”

"It doesn't matter, even in our family, we all agree that Sheldon is a freak."

"Well, before this, I always thought that Caltech was like this or that, but from what you said, it seems like there are some interesting guys in that school, so I don't worry that my dear Alex will become So nerdy.”

Jie Laohuai was greatly relieved. To be honest, having such a big family was not only his pride, but also a sweet burden for him. He had always been worried that once he passed away, his family would never be able to get together as often as they do now. A group of harmony has become a stranger from now on.

"No, I think you're overthinking it. Penny was purely entangled by Leonard's persistent pursuit to the point where she couldn't help it, so she agreed to be his girlfriend. So, in general, yes, that school It’s almost full of nerds.”

As a scientific research investor who spends almost half of his week in Caltech laboratories, Ron is certainly qualified to make such an evaluation.

Jay was upset for a while and could only change the topic: "Okay, I started to worry about my lovely granddaughter again. By the way, did I thank you for the birthday gift you gave me? That's better than the Thunderbird I gave to myself. So much better.”

"I've already thanked you. You're welcome, and you don't need to think too much about it. You know the nature of my job. It's much easier to get one of these than ordinary people. If I weren't afraid of getting you into trouble, I can even get you an F4U without dismantling weapons. I heard Mary say that you once served on an aircraft carrier. At that time, I was thinking that you might like this thing.

Don’t worry about care and maintenance, call Toretto Auto Repair and their people will help you take care of it, it will definitely add a lot of fun to your retirement life.

You helped us a lot when our family was in trouble. I am willing to do anything for you. You deserve everything, Jay. "

Originally, Ron wanted to leave the aircraft maintenance work to professionals, but he accidentally mentioned it while having dinner at Toretto's house, and Toretto took the initiative to take the job.

Although at the beginning, Ron also questioned whether it would be too cross-professional for a car repairman to repair airplanes?

But later Toretto proved to him with actual facts that people who can repair cars are naturally no problem with airplanes. What's more, this is an airplane from the World War II era, which is a piece of cake.

He even used modern technology to conduct large-scale modifications to the aircraft. Except for a shell, almost all the parts inside, including the engine, were replaced. He said that it was a modern piston wrapped in the skin of a World War II aircraft. It’s no exaggeration to say that it’s an airplane.

As for the issue of money, it is even less of an issue.

In recent days, Bitcoin's rise has been relatively good. It has broken through the historical high of 10,000 US dollars a piece and is heading towards 20,000 US dollars. Leonard and others said that it was too early to sell out, otherwise they would definitely be able to do it again. Earn money from a few comics.

"Hey, speaking of helping me, there is one thing. Gloria suspects that Luke is going to steal wine. Can you help her deal with it? If you ask directly, the little guy will definitely not admit it. You have to think of something. Find a way to catch him properly."

As he said that, the old naughty boy Jie showed a mischievous smile, but he didn't smile for long before he was stared at by Phil, who waved at him stupidly: "Okay, it seems that I have to deal with my stupidity now. Son-in-law, if you succeed later, don’t forget to tell me the process.”

"Happy birthday, Jay~ Come with me to see the best birthday gift I have prepared for you!" Phil greeted Ron and excitedly showed off to Jay: "But before that, I must Cover your eyes first."

Jay had a look of "Kill me now~" and Ron immediately gave up his position and gave them an unforgettable happy time as son-in-law.

"Gloria, Jay said you need someone to help you treat the little villain who is planning to steal some wine." Ron walked into the room, and Jay's wife Gloria was at the bar: "Do you know what Luke is planning to steal and drink? ? Maybe knowing his goal, we can prank him in a targeted way."

Gloria raised the bottle angrily: "That's it, Tequila. Every time Luke comes here recently, he always stares at this bottle, looking at it the same way Jay looked at me in the bedroom."

"Okay, this way everything will be much simpler. We just need to find a way..." Ron was thinking of a prank idea when he suddenly noticed that Hailey was greeting everyone with a strange man outside: "Hi, Who is the man Haili brought?"

"Her new boyfriend, I forgot his name, but he seems to be a doctor. Have you figured out a way?"

"Not just now, but now I think about it." Ron looked at Hailey's new boyfriend, an idea flashed, and he came up with a plan: "Maybe we can discuss it with her new friend, I have a plan, I will definitely do it very funny……"

As Ron said, Gloria's eyes became brighter and brighter: "This is a good idea, just do as you say!"

On the other side, after Ron and Gloria left, two sneaky figures appeared on the stairs next to the bar. While no one was there, they quickly took the wine away and returned upstairs.

Gloria made a mistake. Luke was not the only one who wanted to steal wine, but also her good son, Manny.

"How's it going? Have you figured out how to drink tequila?" Luke asked anxiously.

"If I'm not mistaken, put a piece of lemon in your mouth, sprinkle some salt on your belly, and then drink it with your belly button." Manny read out the text on the computer strangely, and finally glanced at it Luke's belly.

"You have a beautiful idea!" Luke uncorked the bottle and poured a large sip of wine into his mouth. Although the tequila in this bottle had just been replaced by Ron with water, the bottle that had been filled with wine for a long time was still intact. It retained a hint of alcohol, making him think he was drinking the real thing.

"Wow, one sip will make you feel so good~" Luke exclaimed smugly, imitating an adult.

"Oh my God~" Manny also imitated Luke and took a sip, but Luke immediately snatched the bottle back and drank it with his mouth: "Hey! Man, take it easy, I'll listen. Said this drink has great staying power."

"Don't worry, I have my own sense of discretion." Luke couldn't help but drink the wine in the bottle.

Ten minutes later, the two little "drunk" ghosts, who were dizzy from the little alcohol left in the bottle, staggered downstairs, intending to make another pot of coffee to sober up.

Listening to the footsteps on the stairs, Ron Haley's new boyfriend winked and mouthed "Go."

"OMG! Doctor, I need your help. When I drank this bottle of tequila, I couldn't find the worms in the bottle!" Ron said in horror, holding the same tequila that Luke had just stolen. He yelled, "It's the kind of worms you'll find in every bottle to keep the wine fresh."

"Wow, that's troublesome," the doctor said in a serious tone, "This worm will eat your internal organs within a few hours."

"Then there must be some way to save her, right?" Hailey suppressed her laughter and recited her lines. Her acting skills were quite good, and Ron secretly gave her a thumbs up.

"You can drink pickle sauce, worms won't survive in this sauce."

The doctor casually picked up the empty bottle on the table and handed it to Ron. Ron drank the sauce in one gulp: "Is this enough?"

"Just right."

"Thank you doctor, I feel better in my stomach."

"You are lucky. Fortunately, there is still some sauce. Otherwise, you can only use another method, which is to soak yourself in ice water and take an ice bath. Stay in the ice water for at least twenty minutes to warm up your body temperature. lower, thereby freezing the worms to death.”

The doctor said seriously according to the script he had just rehearsed with Ron. Unexpectedly, behind the wall, Luke and Manny's little faces turned pale with fright.

Luke looked horrified: "Oh my god! No one told me that there are worms in the agave to keep it fresh! I feel like the worms are moving in my stomach."

"No, I think they are in my belly." Manny was no better: "I knew I should pour tequila into your belly button and sprinkle some salt. There must be these rules for drinking. They make sense!"

Dong-dong-dong, there was a rush of footsteps heading upstairs. The two adults and one and a half adults downstairs laughed so hard that they couldn't stand up straight.

"Hahaha, they won't really go find ice cubes for an ice bath, right?"

"You know how stupid your brother Luke is," Ron spread his hands: "According to our hometown in Texas, every time a genius comes out of a place, he must sacrifice the IQ of one or two people nearby. , So, Alex’s achievements are half as good as yours and Luke’s.”

"But I heard that Uncle Sheldon is also a genius, and a much more genius than Alex. But you and Missy seem to be great too."

"Uh... Sheldon's genius was obtained by sacrificing the IQ of the neighbor's children, such as your Aunt Missy's husband Forrest, and our other neighbor Billy. You may not believe it, but he went to junior high school. When I was there, I was still picking up something to eat on the ground, do you want to follow me up to see those two little idiots?"

"I'll teach you another very interesting thing. You can take photos of Luke's stupid things, and then make the photos into greeting cards. It will definitely shine in the family at Christmas time."

Ron looked at Hailey with a smirk. For some reason, he could always see some shadow of Missy's childhood in Hailey.

The same dislike of studying, the same high emotional intelligence, and the same cuteness, but when it comes to picking up men's eyes, Hailey seems to be a little worse than Missy.

Missy had identified A-Gump, a good man, early on, and she had been with him since childhood.

But counting the boyfriends Hailey has dated so far, including Dylan at first, and then the weather forecast host who was as old as her father and now a doctor, it seems that none of them is a particularly suitable choice.

They are not even as good as Rajesh. At least Rajesh has nothing serious except for being a bit girly.

etc! Raj?

An idea flashed in Ron's mind. If Hailey and Rajesh could get together, it seemed to be a good choice.

"Good idea! Uncle Ron, let's go up!" Hailey hugged Ron's arm excitedly.

"Of course, we can also chat about your views on Indians."

In the bathroom of Manny's bedroom on the second floor, two little fools were putting their feet into the bathtub full of ice cubes.

"Ah! It's too cold, I can't do it!" Luke quickly retracted his feet.

"Either be cold for twenty minutes now, or become a cold corpse forever, your choice!" Manny shivered as he sat in the bathtub: "Hurry up, man."

"Ah~~~"

The two comrades hugged each other and screamed in the cold ice water.

"Click."

At the door of the bathroom, Ron saved this classic scene forever: "If I catch you secretly drinking again, I guarantee that this photo will be seen by all your classmates."

"But this picture will be a card for Christmas this year," Hailey added, crossing her arms.

"Hailey! You lied to us!" the two little fools yelled in grief and anger.

Stupid as they are, they still have some intelligence and know that Uncle Ron can't be offended, so they unanimously target Hailey.

Hailey said without fear: "So, do you want to settle accounts with me?"

"Just wait, we'll freeze the worms to death, and we'll go find you right away to settle the score!"
