"I think these guys must be too leisurely. They still have time to think about eating dumplings. They all need to practice more when they go to the training ground tomorrow."
Aldon and Ahmed, who were resting and relaxing at this time, suddenly felt a chill on their backs, and goosebumps appeared one after another. However, they turned around and looked around. There was not even a breeze. Why did they suddenly catch a cold? What's up? Then other players sneezed one after another, but they didn't know what was going on.
Jiang Youning looked back at Lu Ke, frowned slightly, and said seriously, "It's just a meal of dumplings, it's not a big deal. If you keep such a straight face every day, they will think you are a big devil."
Obviously, Jiang Youning did not see the social network platform after the London Bowl, and the nickname "Bambi" has already resounded throughout the sky.
Lu Ke scratched his head and pretended not to hear, "Where's my breakfast? Have you and dad finished eating it?"
"In the restaurant. We have both finished eating. Your dad is busy with something else. Go and have a look." As he spoke, Jiang Youning quickly wrapped three more dumplings. The speed was really fast. Lu Ke's My eyesight can't keep up with the rhythm.
Nodding, Lu Ke turned around and walked through the living room. Following the cluttered sounds, he found Lu Zhengze who was moving a low cabinet in the backyard. Lu Ke quickly stepped forward to help. Unexpectedly, Lu Zhengze repeatedly exclaimed, " No, no, I can do it myself, it’s best not to lift heavy objects with your right arm, no, no, no.”
How many times did you emphasize "don't" in a row? Lu Ke couldn't help but hesitate in his movements, then he laughed helplessly, and stepped forward to help, "I didn't break a bone or anything, the arm injury is not that serious, there is no need to make a fuss." After a day's rest, it's okay How come he became a Barbie doll even though his mother despised it and his father despised it even with a few small favors?
Seeing that he could not stop Lu Ke, Lu Zhengze could only shout, "Slow down, slow down! Look at your feet! Don't be brave and use your right hand too much! Be careful!"
With Lu Ke's help, Lu Zhengze carried the short cabinet into the study.
This low cabinet was an old piece of furniture. Lu Ke remembered that he had used it to store books when he was a child, but later it was no longer enough, so he replaced the bookcase, and then it was eliminated. "Why did you find it again? I thought it was early." It has already been thrown away." There are also stickers collected in childhood on the low cabinet, which instantly awakens memories.
"Your mother always puts textbooks and reference books everywhere. I'm thinking of putting a small bookcase in the study room just to store her books. I'll use it temporarily. If it doesn't fit in the room in the future, I'll buy another one. New one." Lu Zhengze was already busy. Because the support legs of the low cabinet seemed a little loose, he was going to find tools to re-fix it. "You go have breakfast first, I don't need to help here."
After saying that, Lu Zhengze waved his hand and drove his son away like a duck.
Lu Ke was also dumbfounded, but this time he didn't insist anymore, turned around and left the study.
When I came to the restaurant, I immediately saw the breakfast placed on the dining table. Poached eggs and cereal, with blueberries and apples, and skim yogurt. It was prepared exactly according to Lu Ke's daily recipe. In addition to nutrition, it can also supplement Enough energy and most importantly very healthy.
After sitting down, Lu Ke saw the stack of photos placed on the corner of the table. After reaching out to take it, Lu Ke burst out laughing without holding back. This is really...
"By the way, Xiao Ke, remember to sign those photos on the dining table!" Lu Zhengze's voice came from the study.
Lu Ke looked at at least fifty photos in his hand - all of them were official full-body photos taken and released by the team after he won the Super Bowl. He was holding the trophy, roaring and celebrating at the camera, with the corners of his mouth and eyes blooming. Shining with joy, wearing the team's custom-made championship T-shirt and hat, he showed his champion style.
"Didn't you sign it twice before? Why do you want more?" Lu Ke shouted in the direction of the study. Combined with the previous two times, he signed at least more than 300 photos. Lu Ke had no idea what Lu Zhengze wanted so many. What is the purpose of taking a signed photo? I have no idea.
Lu Zhengze's voice came from the study room, "Everything has been sent!" He simply walked out and faced Lu Ke in the restaurant, "Now when many fans meet me, they will take the initiative to say hello and then ask for your I have to carry ten or twenty of the signed photos in my briefcase, and they were all given away very quickly, and it wasn’t enough.”
Lu Ke couldn't help but cover his face, "Dad, you didn't take the initiative to give my autographed photo to others, did you? They obviously didn't want it, but you still took the initiative to give me the autographed photo, right?" Lu Ke felt that there might be a legend about him on the streets of San Francisco. , just thinking about it, I feel like I can’t laugh or cry. What’s going on with that shameful feeling?
Lu Zhengze's eyes widened and he waved his hands repeatedly, "Wherever, wherever, they are all asking for it. I'm serious!" But before he could finish his words, he said hastily, "Remember to take the photos later. All signed, but your right hand is still closed and you need to relax and rest. If you feel muscle soreness, forget it and wait until the end of the season."
Lu Ke raised his head and said, "Dad, how many photos have you developed? Dad? Dad!" Lu Zhengze didn't answer, so he turned around and went back to the study to get busy.
Jiang Youning poked his head out of the kitchen, made a "shh" gesture, pointed to the study with his eyes, meaning "Don't let your dad hear it", and then lowered his voice and said, "Your dad washed three thousand sheets." ." Lu Ke felt that he had received a huge shock. How could his father suddenly become the "signature photo boss"? There's something wrong with this!
"Now the fans are very friendly. They don't disturb our lives, and they don't pester us. They always say hello warmly every time we meet. When you were injured before, they took the initiative to hug us and express comfort. Your dad always feels like thanking you. They, and then, he also wants to show off his son, wishing the whole world knew that you relied on your own efforts to become the Super Bowl champion. I can't do anything to him, so you just understand." Jiang Youning revealed to Lu Ke He smiled and said softly.
This is definitely a "thank you model" with Chinese characteristics. Lu Zhengze obviously still has the previous cultural habits, but Lu Ke cannot understand it - to be precise, he can understand it, but he feels very embarrassed. In the United States, This contradictory way of being both implicit and public does not exist. At this time, Lu Ke didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
Opening his mouth, Lu Ke wanted to say a few words of defense, but the words turned around in his mind and he still couldn't say them out. In the end, he could only nod and agree, but his eyes fell on the photo again, and he couldn't bear to say it. I couldn't help but muttered again, "Can't Dad choose a handsome photo? This one is really weird."
"I think he's very handsome! What's wrong?" Jiang Youning said with a smile, "Hurry up, finish your breakfast as soon as possible." After saying this, she turned around and went back to the kitchen.
Lu Ke looked away, finished his breakfast obediently, then sat at the dining table and started "working".
Fortunately, Lu Ke has gradually become accustomed to the work of signing a large number of signatures. After winning the Super Bowl, the team took 300 footballs for Lu Ke to autograph, all of which were given to the fans. Later, when going to different programs or activities, autographing footballs or photos was also a regular part, usually 50. Take off, because the show is ready to give away the gift of football, too.
The most exaggerated thing is Under Armor. From jerseys to sneakers, Lu Ke has already signed and vomited. He can't even count how many he signed. He only remembers that he was locked in the hotel room for three consecutive days, an average of every day. He signed intermittently for three hours or more. In the end, he felt that none of his fingers were his own, and he could barely lift his arms.
Moreover, Lu Ke's signatures are usually in Chinese, so the strokes are much more complicated than in English, and the workload naturally increases exponentially.
No wonder the signatures of top superstars are getting simpler and more sloppy.
Now, fifty is just a small thing.
"Xiao Ke?" Jiang Youning's voice came from the kitchen again, and Lu Ke, who was working conscientiously, responded, "Huh?"
Jiang Youning didn't hear it, so she simply walked out again, "Xiao Ke, have you confirmed the time for what I told you last time? It was about visiting the young fans in the hospital."
Not long ago, when Jiang Youning and Tiffany Newman went to the hospital to work as volunteers, they accidentally discovered a six-year-old Niners fan. He liked the San Francisco 49ers very much and knew everything about the team. The members of the coaching staff also know it well.
This little football fan suffered from bone cancer. He had undergone multiple chemotherapy treatments at a young age and all his hair had fallen out. He wore a San Francisco 49ers baseball cap every day and pushed his wheelchair around the wards. He went around promoting the team, as if he was the publicity ambassador appointed by the San Francisco 49ers in the hospital.
Interestingly, the little guy’s favorite player is not Lu Ke, but Patrick Willis. He knows Willis’s great achievements by heart; and the little guy’s biggest regret is that he missed three opportunities to meet Willis. , which also prevents him from telling Willis face to face: He is his idol!
Jiang Youning and Tiffany were deeply moved after learning about it. They both very much hoped to help the little guy realize his wish, so they told their sons respectively.
After Lu Ke and Logan learned about it, they were very happy to fulfill their children's wishes, just like Santa Claus. When they saw the smiles of the children when they received the gifts, they could always find those little happinesses again in life, not to mention , this is just a piece of cake for them.
Unfortunately, Willis's accidental injury dashed the idea of a "Christmas gift". Coupled with the upcoming regular season life-and-death battle and playoff journey, the plan had to be adjusted, and Lu Ke could only rethink it. Other ways.
This is what Jiang Youning is asking about now, to prevent Lu Ke from forgetting it in order to prepare for the playoffs.
