Chapter 12 Not Colluding

It stands to reason that we are all compatriots, so foreign countries are naturally more intimate than others, not to mention living in the same building, but things are still weird, they have no interest in making friends with Jian Heng at all, and even a little bit of avoiding him . In this way, Jian Heng naturally has no interest in sticking his face to someone's cold ass. So the two are not only not good friends, they are not even friendly neighbors.

   Jian Heng is considered unlucky.

  For example, Zhang Jialiang, who moved from the Bay Province, can still mix with Jian Heng.

   It’s not that all Hong Kong people are like this. For example, some Hong Kong immigrants living in Chinatown are pretty good and united.

   Like Diao Jiahui and this family, they are all in Australia, New Zealand, South Africa and so on. Even people in India and Vanuatu can talk and laugh.

  If people think this way, it is best for Jian Heng not to get along with each other, so as not to be disgusted by seeing each other!

Standing at the window of someone's house and looking in, Jian Heng found that this family is like a drowned rat, big and small, as if they were thrown into the water and then fished out, standing in the living room and hugging each other to be silly, not bothered. Know what to do.

  From Jian Heng's perspective, he happened to see something cooking in the kitchen. There's nothing I don't understand, just as Jian Heng thought, the cooking fume was a little bigger, which triggered the false fire alarm.

   After taking a look, Jian Heng didn't say much here, and returned home from the escape ladder with the rabbit in his arms.

After seeing it clearly, Jian Heng could even think clearly about the whole thing before and after. It wasn't the fire, but it was because the smoke from cooking was too much, which touched the very sensitive indoor smoke sensor. The fire extinguishing device in the house began to spray water to extinguish the fire automatically, and now the family naturally took a cold bath.

  Because the living habits of the two peoples are different, there is a little problem.

  This is the United States, and everything follows American standards. Generally, Americans do not have such a large amount of smoke when cooking at home, so their range hoods have average suction power, and the sensors are made to adapt to American home cooking habits.

Chinese people have different habits. There are many methods of cooking, especially stir-frying, which is easy to produce a lot of oily smoke. When the sensor senses the oily smoke, it has no ability to distinguish whether it is oily smoke or fire smoke. Naturally The alarm was called, and the automatic fire extinguishing sprinkler was also turned on at the same time as the alarm.

   Just such a thing!

As soon as he got into the window, Jian Heng heard the whining siren from downstairs, turned his head and saw a red fire truck had arrived, and the firefighters on it were quickly dragging the fire truck. The sprinkler pipe is coming up the escape ladder.

  Pfft!

   Seeing this scene, Jian Heng couldn't help being happy, and said, "Who is so diligent and called the fire brigade so quickly!"

People from China don’t know. The difference from China is that the Americans charge money for dispatching fire trucks, and the money collected will definitely make you doubt your life. If you don’t say anything else, just come down like this. Three or four thousand US dollars can't be bought at all, and it costs more than 10,000 to 20,000 yuan in RMB, which is still the starting price! If there are more items, the price will have to go up!

   As for the income conditions of the family downstairs? Waiting for a few days to see the bill sent by the fire department probably makes me want to die.

   "Those who abandon their clan will be reaped by God!"

  Jian Heng said with a smile, he stopped cooking when he was happy, and just lay on the window and watched the busy firefighters jumping up and down. There was no fire at all, but the busy ones seemed to be very professional.

   It's not Jian Heng's fault, he has a cold face, and Jian Heng doesn't want to be cheap, so he told him the precautions for living in the United States!

  Like Jian Heng's house, every time there is a big stir-fry, the smoke detector in the kitchen is covered with a disposable plastic round lunch box, no matter how big the smoke is, it is not afraid.

This is the method taught by the old immigrants. If this family intends to mix with the Chinese circle, Jian Heng will definitely say something to pay attention to in the United States at the first time. This person is unwilling to join the circle and wants to mix with the old outside circle. Where? will know these?

  Therefore, this time this family really got the trick, no one should blame others, it was purely self-inflicted.

Anyone who has been in the United States for a long time knows that not only the Chinese, but also the Americans themselves complain about this matter. Whether it is a fire truck or an ambulance, they are things that cost money and kill. If there is still a chance, the average family is I won't call it, because the last time I called it was a few thousand dollars, which is really not what ordinary people call it. After a few times, it would almost go bankrupt. It would be more enjoyable to burn it up and die.

  In the news reports, someone fainted on the street and was called an ambulance. After being sent to the hospital for rescue, he saw the ambulance bill and had a heart attack and collapsed again.

   This is definitely not a made-up story, but something real!

  Gloriously watching the firefighters get the family out of the room, the strong and charming firefighters, some pulling adults, some holding children, kept doing this until they reached the downstairs.

At the beginning, the family seemed to be scared stupid. When they got to the bottom of the building, when they came back to their senses, they probably didn't expect the firefighters of the American people to be so considerate. It's not worth getting their own family down. There is also a doctor I couldn't stop speaking English to myself, asking myself how is this, how is that, is there any discomfort?

It may be that this family was moved by such enthusiastic American firefighters. When Jian Heng watched the two living treasures come back to his senses, he kept holding the hands of the firefighters, and kept saying that it was three grams of oil. !

   Still the kind with a crying voice, it looks more touching than the tear-jerking story!

   From Jian Heng’s point of view, the thanks from the two adults are sincere and not at all hypocritical, at least for now. Seeing that the two adults are not only crying, but also snot is coming down. That guy is called a devotion, Jian Heng felt disgusted when he saw it!

Not interested in watching again, Jian Heng shrank his head back and continued to cook his own meal. After about ten minutes, Jian Heng sat down at the table at home and began to eat. The big bowl was piled with green pepper eggs and white rice below. , Eating while watching TV happily.

After eating and taking a nap, Jian Heng got up to go to Zhao Changshan, locked the door and went downstairs, but saw a long table on the side of the road with a donation on it. The family was standing next to the box, but the embarrassment just now was gone. Now the family has changed into clean clothes and looks decent.

  Almost everyone who passed by threw money into the donation box. Jian Heng is not good at being an outsider.

  Although he doesn't like this family, Jian Heng also understands that the United States pays great attention to this so-called love. This is the time to show whether you have love for the community.

   took out five dollars and threw it into the box when passing by. Jian Heng heard the man say thank you, but when Jian Heng looked up at him, he clearly saw the unnaturalness on his face.

   "Fuck! You're so hypocritical at this time!" Jian Heng cursed inwardly, wishing he could get back the money in the box, and finally held back his nausea and walked away.

   This kind of nausea accompanied Jian Heng to Zhao Changshan's restaurant. When he saw the simple and honest smile on Zhao Changshan's face, Jian Heng was completely at ease. We Chinese should be such a man who values ​​love and righteousness.

   "Sit wherever you want," Zhao Changshan said as he stretched out his hand and swiped around the empty restaurant.

   "You don't even have any buddies?" Jian Heng randomly pulled out a chair and sat directly next to a table at the entrance of the door.

"Everyone went out to play! Some of them may have gone to find a job. After all, everyone has to survive. If this place drags on for another ten days, what should everyone eat?" Zhao Changshan took out a cigarette from his pocket as he spoke. Came up and pumped up.

  Knowing that Jian Heng doesn't smoke, he didn't pass it to Jian Heng.

   "Let's cook, you don't want to play and let me, a guest, reach out?"

   After talking for a while, Jian Heng noticed that Zhao Changshan didn't seem to get up to cook yet, so he urged him immediately.

   "Wait for someone, I will introduce you to me!" said Zhao Changshan.

  Seeing the smile on Zhao Changshan's face, Jian Heng couldn't help becoming a little curious, and said softly: "Oh".
