Christina's ranch is located on a splendid prairie in central Texas, between Dallas and Austin.

With a distance of more than 2,000 kilometers, Xia Jingxing gave up the idea of ​​traveling by car and chose to fly from San Francisco to Austin, the capital of Texas, and then change to other means of transportation.

After getting off the plane in Austin, the three rented a Wrangler and continued to drive toward the ranch.

Under the blue sky and white clouds, a red car was driving on a smooth and smooth highway.

Both sides of the highway are green, and there is no limit to the prairie, patches of woods, and flocks of cattle and sheep grazing on the grass.

The herd is white, black, reddish brown and mixed, and the herd is white with goats and sheep.

Inside the car, the puppy sitting in the back row opened the car window, blew the wind, looked at the endless prairie, and murmured, "This is really a good place!"

Kristina was sitting in the passenger car, the window was down by her, and her red hair was constantly ruffled by the wind.

She trimmed it a few times, but her hair became more and more messy, and finally gave up the struggle and let the wind blow freely outside the window.

Xia Jingxing focused on driving, and she introduced her hometown to the dog: "Texas is the largest state in the southern United States and the second largest state in the United States, second only to Alaska, with an area of ​​more than 690,000 square kilometers and a population of more than 22 million... "

The little dog nodded. The area is almost twice as large as that of Dongying, but it is only one-sixth of the population of Dongying, which is typically vast and sparsely populated.

He asked, "Christina, how old is your ranch?"

"I do the math, the farm that my great-grandfather bought when he was young should be more than 80 years old today!

It's just that the area was not as big as it is today. Later, my grandfather and father bought some nearby pastures again and connected them together to expand the area to 5,000 acres today. "

The dog asked curiously again: "Are the Texans very grumpy? Also, I heard that Texas is about to become independent at every turn?"

Yang Niu chuckled, "Texas used to belong to Mexico, and then joined the United States. It used to establish a separate country called the Lone Star Republic. Until now, Texas also has its own independent militia armed forces..."

puppy nods,

"No wonder, I said why the American TV series always make fun of Texans. When did your family come to Texas?"

Yang Niu replied, "It should be more than 100 years ago, when there was a famine in Ireland, the British government did not act, and millions of Irish people starved to death.

Between 1820 and 1930, more than 4 million Irish immigrants came to the United States, which is when my ancestors immigrated to the United States.

In addition, our family's surname is also the most common surname of Irish descent in the United States - Walsh.

This surname means "foreigner" in English.

And the "Kennedy" surname is tied for the nine most Irish-American surnames. Others know that this is the descendant of immigrants of Irish descent.

Our family ranch is also named after the surname, Walsh Ranch! "

"You don't have to tell me that you're Irish from your red hair."

Xia Jingxing looked as if he knew it beforehand: "Your hair color belongs to a recessive gene. Are you the only one in your family with red hair?"

Kristina spread her hands, "Yes, my father has yellow hair, my mother has black hair, only I have red hair, and my younger brothers and sisters have yellow hair.

Listen to my grandfather, his grandfather, my grandfather's grandfather, had red hair! "

Xia Jingxing continued, "Then your ancestors thousands of years ago should be Celts!"

Kristina glanced at the red hair on her shoulders, smiled and said, "It should be, in short, it can't be Slavs and Germans."

Xia Jingxing smiled. In the eyes of the Romans, these were the three major barbarians in Europe.

In ancient China, the surrounding Quartet were also barbarians, but they were soon conquered and assimilated, while Rome was not so lucky.

"Hey, Darren, what do you think will happen to the company when we leave for a few days?"

Xia Jingxing smiled and said, "How worried are you about the company? If we go back now, we should be able to go back to Palo Alto today."

The dog also said: "Christina, don't worry, the company has Evans watching, they can handle small things, and if there are big things, they will call us."

Xia Jingxing agreed, "Yes, I just took this opportunity to test it.

Let's see if the company can function normally if we are away for a few days. "

"Okay then! I'm just too worried."

Seeing that the two partners said so, Christina gradually felt relieved.

She takes Facebook very seriously, for fear of making even the slightest mistake.

In this respect, the little dog and even Xia Jingxing couldn't compare to her.

…………

…………

A few hours later, the car stopped outside the yard in front of a three-story white villa.

Because there are two large iron gates in front of them, surrounded by walls, which block the way and cannot enter.

The big iron door suddenly opened, and a middle-aged white man with light yellow hair came out, who was a little fat. The other party was looking at the car that was parked at the door.

Seeing this figure, Christina quickly got out of the co-pilot, rushed up, and hugged the middle-aged man.

Xia Jingxing and the dog also got off the bus.

Kristina hugged the middle-aged man's arm and introduced the two: "This is my father."

"Hello, Mr. Walsh! I'm Christina's partner, my name is Darren, and I'm from China!"

Xia Jingxing smiled and held out his right hand to the chubby middle-aged man in front of him.

Yang Niu's father, Walsh, shook hands with Xia Jingxing expressionlessly, looked at the latter a few times, and suddenly said, "You are the one who tricked Kristina into dropping out of school?"

Xia Jingxing was stunned for a moment, then glanced at the foreign girl, why did your father ask me for a teacher to ask for guilt?

"Dad, I voluntarily dropped out of school. It has nothing to do with Darren, and it's not a bad choice."

Kristina didn't expect her father to come so suddenly, didn't it sound good on the phone? She quickly persuaded her father.

Xia Jingxing didn't know what Yang Niu's father meant, so he didn't get angry and said with a smile, "Mr. Walsh, I think Christina will be proud of you and even the Walsh family.

She is only 21 years old, and she is already the COO of the most potential Internet company in Silicon Valley. It is not impossible that she will become the most influential and powerful woman in Silicon Valley in the future. "

Walsh shrugged, "It's better! Otherwise, China boy, I'll have a good chat with you."

After saying the harsh words, Walsh released the hand that he held tightly with Xia Jingxing.

Xia Jingxing looked at the red mark on his hand and said in his heart that he was lying, this fat man almost broke his hand just now.

What hatred? What are you complaining about? As for that to me?

The dog stepped forward and bowed to Walsh in accordance with the traditional etiquette of the Eastern Ying people, and then stepped forward to shake hands with Walsh.

Walsh pushed open the iron door and let Xia Jingxing drive the car into the yard.

After Xia Jingxing parked the car, he turned off the engine and walked out of the car.

He saw a twelve- or thirteen-year-old boy and a five- or six-year-old fat girl staring at him at the door of the villa.

Xia Jingxing looked at the boy and said with a smile, "You are Brady!"

Looking at the girl again, "You are Jessica!"

The little fat girl had a chubby face and was a little afraid of life, especially Xia Jingxing had a weird appearance with black hair and black eyes, she glanced at Xia Jingxing, stepped on her short legs, ran behind her brother to hide, showing half of her face and looked around secretly.

"Are you Chinese?"

Brady was not afraid of Xia Jingxing at all, he raised his head and asked the latter.

"right!"

"What's so fun about China?"

Xia Jingxing shrugged, "That's too much, maybe it won't be finished for a few days or nights."

"Oh, yes, wait a minute!"

Xia Jingxing ran to open the trunk and took out two gift boxes, one to Yang Niu's younger brother Brady and the other to Yang Niu's younger sister Jessica.

"Thank you~"

Jessica said in a milky voice, holding a large box.

Europeans and Americans have the habit of opening gifts in person. Brady opened it directly. It is a pair of sneakers!

"Wow, this is a limited edition AJ."

Brady's eyes lit up, and he smiled and said thank you.

The yard of Yang Niu's house is very large, Xia Jingxing drove a step ahead, and Yang Niu, father and dog who were behind finally approached the villa at this time.

When the two children saw the eldest sister, they ran up one after another, one hugged their arms and the other hugged their legs.

The little fat girl Jessica was jumping up and down. She wanted to hold her sister's hand, but she couldn't reach the position, so she could only hold her leg.

Yang Niu smiled and bent over, picked up the youngest sister, and gave her a kiss.

Seeing that the three children were so harmonious, Walsh showed the old father's kind smile on the side, which was completely different from the indifferent attitude towards Xia Jingxing just now.

There are many children in American families, and there are only three in foreign girls, which is actually not that many.

Xia Jingxing glanced at the villa in front of him, under these conditions, it was more than enough to raise three children.

At this time, Walsh noticed that his two children were holding a gift box in each hand, and then he glanced at Xia Jingxing and said nothing.

Xia Jingxing and the dog followed the Yang Niu three siblings and Walsh into the villa.

The decoration inside is quite luxurious. Although it is a villa on the grassland, it has all the modern home furnishing.
