Kapitel 48: Chapter 48 The Crisis Emerges
George was too excited and didn't pay attention before. When he got the secret recipe again, he saw the label on it: Beef needs to be from veal that is less than one year old, born in September, and slaughtered in May.
Of course, there were some other outrageous requests on the menu.
Looking at the secret recipe, George's face became increasingly ugly. Finally, he angrily crumpled the paper into a ball, threw it into the trash, and complained: "Shit, I know she looks down on me and has never treated me as a family member."
As the saying goes: The greater the hope, the more disappointment. The bigger.
This time, George was heartbroken.
"George, don't be like this, Mom is not that kind of person. She was just joking with you..." Mary comforted her husband: "I will discuss it with her again and let her give you the secret recipe."
"No, I don't care." George was angry and continued to complain: "You are a family, don't worry about my feelings as an outsider."
"Please, don't say that to George..." Mary tried to continue to comfort her husband.
At this time, a red mini sports car parked outside Cooper's yard.
"Hello, Mary, George~" Pastor Jeff sat in the passenger seat, leaned out half his body, and greeted with a smile: "What are you eating? I can smell the fragrance ten kilometers away."
Mary is Christ The believers' expressions became more reserved after seeing Pastor Jeff. She responded with a smile: "We are having a picnic, and there are some barbecues here. Do you want to try them?"
Christians have very loose rules. They can eat meat, drink a small amount of alcohol, and even smoke.
However, in some areas of Christianity, "because smoking is harmful to health," the religious teachings will forcefully stipulate that believers are not allowed to smoke.
Of course, the local church, because of Pastor Jeff's gentle nature, didn't have that rule.
"Thank you, no. We just had dinner in the restaurant." Pastor Jeff declined the invitation.
"Oh." Mary said, "That's such a pity."
Although the Cooper family and Pastor Jeff are neighbors, out of respect for the pastor, Mary rarely disturbs Jeff in private, so the two don't have much contact with each other.
At this moment, even if Mary wanted to chat with Pastor Jeff for a few more words, she could not find a topic for a while.
The scene suddenly became quiet.
Judging from the situation, Pastor Jeff should leave wisely at this time.
However, he kept a smile on his face and watched the Cooper family eating.
Just when the atmosphere was about to reach the critical point of embarrassment, Pastor Jeff ran out of words to say: "George, today's football game was great. And Mike and George Jr., you are both good..."
"Thank you." George, He answered uninterestedly.
He is still thinking about the secret barbecue recipe.
Mike nodded in response, and his attention was no longer on Pastor Jeff, but on the woman wearing a red dress next to him.
This was the first time Mike met Pastor Jeff's new wife.
This woman was wearing a long, low-cut red dress, and her skin was so white that it looked like there was no blood.
Moreover, this woman's voluptuous and plump figure is no less than Amy's. However, compared to his figure, the temperament he exudes gives people a very "cold" feeling.
Facing Mike's gaze, the woman showed a perfect smile.
Under the exquisite makeup, her charming eyes are very charming.
This woman was exceptional in every sense of the word. However, the sense she was giving Mike at that moment was very bad.
The sixth sense told Mike that the last time this "dangerous" feeling appeared was with Jennifer.
In order not to show any abnormality, Mike continued to eat with his head down, but he couldn't help but frown if there was a smell that seemed to be wafting from his nose.
The stench is hard to describe. It's like the rotten smell of a long-dead rat in the sewer.
...
On the other side, Pastor Jeff chatted awkwardly for a few more words, but still had no intention of leaving.
Seeing this, Mary took the initiative to ask: "Pastor Jeff, do you need help with anything?"
"Ahem~" Pastor Jeff's mind was seen through, he straightened his tie awkwardly and said, "The thing is, the church is this weekend We are going to travel to the countryside for a church picnic. It's just that Aunt Susan, who is in charge of logistics, has been in poor health recently and may not be able to go. So..."
Aunt Susan's identity, to put it nicely, is Pastor Jeff's secretary. In effect, she was the church's equivalent of a handyman.
The church members had a picnic and she was required to act as a cook.
Mary understood what Pastor Jeff meant, and she said with interest: "If Susan is inconvenient, I can help."
"That's great." This is what Pastor Jeff was waiting for. She smiled and said, "Don't worry, Mary. You only need to prepare some food that day. The work is very simple."
"No problem." Mary guaranteed: "I will call my mother. The secret barbecue she makes is very good ." It's delicious and guaranteed to satisfy everyone."
But Mary didn't notice that when she mentioned Grandma Connie and the barbecue, George's face turned even darker.
Over there, Pastor Jeff's goal was achieved, and he said goodbye to the Cooper family with a smile.
Then, he said to his wife: "Selena, let's go."
"Okay," Serena responded, then glanced greedily at Mike, who had his head lowered, and drove away.
After the car drove away, little George said to Mike excitedly: "Did you see it? That woman is so beautiful. I think she is much more attractive than the girls in school. Pastor Jeff is blessed..."
Compared to Jay Despite her ordinary appearance as a pastor, Serena is indeed "beautiful".
Moreover, the eldest sister, who has the attributes of a wife, is astonishingly lethal to a young man like Little George.
"Little George, don't discuss others behind their backs. It's rude." Mary, a Christian, was immersed in the upcoming church work. When she heard her eldest son's words, she immediately stopped him.
Seeing his mother's stern look, little George curled his lips and did not dare to say anything more.
Then, while still at the family dinner, Mary began to think about the work of the church. After a while, she hurried back to her room and started preparing for the weekend job.
It was obvious that she took the matter of temporary workers in the church very seriously.
With Mary's departure, this family dinner also came to an end.
As the children left, in the end, only George was left in the small yard, drinking and dazing while looking at the grill.
On the way back, Mike was still thinking about the woman in the red dress. Experience told him that this woman was not simple.
However, after thinking about it again and again, he decided to observe it for a while. If the other party didn't pose a threat to him, Mike wouldn't be too troublesome.
He knew very well that he was still in the developmental stage and his future was bright, so there was no need to get involved in dangerous things so early.
After putting the thoughts in his mind aside, Mike pushed open the door of Connie's grandma's house.
In the living room, Grandma Connie was lying on her side on the sofa. As soon as she saw Mike coming back, she came over and gossiped: "How is it? After I left, was George very depressed? Tell me quickly..."
It seems that Grandma Connie had some intentions before. Playing tricks on George, the son-in-law.
