Chapter 1291 1291 Find the Rhythm
Leonardo rushed over in a hurry and put it directly on Hugo's shoulder, looking at the chicken wings on the table, "Is this already pickled? Can you take it out?"
"Yes, yes, these can be taken out." Jennifer said quickly, and then began to clean up the trivial things on the table, planning to let Leonardo take them out together.
Leonardo shouted towards the outside, "Chicken wings are ready!" Then a group of people rushed in, Sandra Bullock actually ran at the front, just like a big sister, the man behind him A group of younger brothers roared violently.
Hugo stared at Sandra in complete astonishment, but Sandra didn't have time to deal with Hugo at all, just laughed loudly and shouted, "Hugo get out of the way!"
Hugo, who had been slow to respond because of fatigue, was even more shocked by Sandra at this time. He didn't react for a while, and then Leonardo hooked Hugo's shoulder and ducked back. I saw Sandra flew over first, then hugged Jennifer from behind tightly, and protected the chicken wings with her own hands, followed by Toby, Pedro, Alfonso, Alex also has a look of urgency.
Tobey Maguire? Hugo's surprise was not that Toby appeared here, but that Toby was not shy!
Then I saw Sandra holding a pot of chicken wings, and ran out in a flash, Pedro also grabbed another pot of chicken wings and followed, Toby fell behind and grabbed nothing, just took one. Take the knife out. Hugo looked stunned.
Jennifer and Cameron couldn't help laughing on the spot. Cameron looked at the table and found that they had forgotten the barbecue sauce. "Hey, didn't you just say that the barbecue sauce was not enough?" Cameron picked it up. After the barbecue sauce, he followed, and Jennifer also said hello to Hugo, and followed closely.
Leonardo clapped his hands and laughed when he saw Hugo's shocked expression, "Have you not come back for a while and found that many things are different?"
Hugo frowned slightly, and pretended to be serious and said, "How many parties did you have at my house while I was away?"
"Hahaha..." Leonardo just laughed, but didn't answer. After laughing, he said, "Since it's a party, just enjoy it." When he was about to turn around and leave, he noticed Hugo The little bit of tiredness between his eyebrows, very subtle, but with an indelible burnout, Leonardo couldn't help but feel a little worried and said, "You just came back from a long trip today, are you tired? Now? If so, go to the second floor to rest. Your room is soundproofed very well, and we won't be able to disturb you."
Hugo looked at Leonardo, shook his head, and said with a smile, "If my master wasn't there, you wouldn't have overturned the whole house."
Leonardo noticed that Hugo did not answer his question directly, stopped completely, turned and looked at Hugo worriedly. Although he didn't speak, he seemed to be trying to find clues in Hugo's expression, which made Hugo's smile gently release, "Don't worry, I'm not that vulnerable. You hurry up, or else If there are no chicken wings, as far as I know, there is probably no stock in the refrigerator."
"Oh, God!" Leonardo clasped his head in his hands, wailing angrily, then he punched Hugo in the chest and patted Hugo on the shoulder, "wait for me to grab two pairs of chicken wings for you. !" Then he turned around and shouted, "Leave the chicken wings!" He quickly ran towards the barbecue grill outside.
But at this time, the barbecue was already surrounded by circles, and Leonardo stood on the periphery and was blocked from the outside. Then he watched him squeeze from left to right, and he just squeezed in through the cracks, which caused everyone to complain. Hugo, who was watching the scene, laughed out loud.
Hugo took a deep breath, adjusted his state, and joined the joy of the party.
The party that welcomed Hugo's return finally went down until the sun went down, and the "old bones" such as Steven and David went back first, leaving a group of young people to continue the revelry. In the end, Hugo did not last until midnight. When it was too late, I was tired and fell asleep on the sofa in the game room. Naturally, Hugo didn't know how long this group of people would be revelling.
When he woke up in the morning, Hugo was lying on the bed in his bedroom with Cameron beside him. After Hugo sat up, he looked at the alarm clock, and it was already past nine o'clock. He slept very well. Shen didn't even feel a little turbulence, and whoever carried him to the second floor didn't have any impression.
It's just that he slept for a long time, which made Hugo's head dizzy. He sat on the edge of the bed for a while, and when his head was not so dizzy, he looked back at Cameron. At this time, Cameron was still sleeping sweetly, and seemed to sense Hugo's movement. She turned over, hugged the pillow, adjusted her sleeping position, and then quietly entered a deep sleep.
Hugo waited for a while and found that Cameron did not wake up, then slowly stood up and went to the bathroom to take a shower, and the whole person was much more awake.
In the past two months, Hugo has not been in good shape. Although it is said that during the filming of "Death Ramble", he has already completed the adjustment and devoted himself to the performance of the character wholeheartedly; but Hugo's current control is still not enough, and the heaviness and darkness after entering the role are still haunting Hugo. , Even after the movie was finished, he still couldn't fully recover to his previous state. The whole person was not quite right, not only the quality of sleep was not good, but he was also often haunted by nightmares.
That's why Hugo went back to Lanches and lived a completely comfortable life for a while.
In Lanches, Hugo and Adam got along very awkwardly, Adam hardly knew how to face Hugo, neither sitting nor standing, plus Adam could not smoke in front of Hugo, he seemed to be always in a state of anxiety. Hugo wanted to communicate with Adam, but he didn't know how hard he should try. The relationship between his son and his father always seemed to be a little more awkward. Every time he tried to talk, it would end in silence. Except when watching sports.
But fortunately, the existence of the Taylor family is a good bridge. The two Lancaster father and son are often at Taylor's house, and with Old Jack as a lubricant, they get along very happily.
Hugo's previous proposal, Adam, really took it to heart. He strolled around Cheyenne twice, discussed with the old Jack a few times, and finally bought a ranch less than two miles away from Lanches.
This 15,000-mu ranch used to be a professional cattle and sheep ranch, but it was very difficult to manage because of its large area. Quite a bit overwhelmed. The ranch is the same as luxury goods such as villas, yachts, and luxury cars. It is not difficult to buy. What is difficult is the subsequent operation, management and maintenance. In many cases, the later cost is not inferior to the purchase transaction price.
After the previous economic crisis, the former rancher had been trying to sell, but could not find a suitable buyer. Now the pastures under 10,000 mu can still be sold. The large-scale pastures are hot potatoes, and few people are willing to take over them.
In the end, Adam won it at a super low price of $400,000, and it also included the supporting equipment and professional equipment in the ranch, but the cattle and sheep owned by the previous rancher were not included.
When Hugo ended "Death Ramble" filming past Lanches, Adam and old Jack were busy planning the ranch. Since only a small part of the previous ranch had electric circuits and water pipes, and the house inside was too old, it needed to be completely renovated.
Adam plans to divide the pasture into several different uses. While raising cattle and sheep, he will also raise horses, and open a fish pond, which requires laying circuits and water pipes throughout the pasture, and introducing some advanced professional Utensils, renovation work is really not small. In addition, Adam also plans to build a two-story villa on the ranch, which can be used occasionally for horseback riding, hunting or vacation.
During Hugo's stay in Lanches, he went to that ranch with Adam and Old Jack almost every once in a while, and the follow-up cost was really high. Before Hugo came back to Los Angeles, $120,000 was invested in the renovation of the ranch, and the villa had not yet been built, and most importantly, the horses, cattle and sheep had not been purchased, and professional management personnel were hired. This is all a sum of money. Huge payout.
But this is not a problem for Hugo, the most important thing is that Adam likes it. Watching Adam and Old Jack excitedly planning every aspect of the ranch, the joy and excitement could not be hidden.
Hugo suddenly realized that Adam actually had a dream too, but he chose the latter between his dream and his family. He gave up his dream of owning a ranch, gave up his dream of becoming a competitive cowboy, and chose Stick to the narrow convenience store in Lanches, guarding this small family.
Everyone has the right to choose, but after making a choice, they need to be responsible for their own choices, otherwise they will betray themselves.
Lena chose to chase her dream, but gave up her so-called dream less than eighteen months later. What a great dream and what a silent joke. What Hugo can't forgive is not Lena's abandonment of himself, but Lena's injury to Adam. It turned out that Adam's persistence and efforts, Adam's abandonment and sacrifice, Adam's efforts and tolerance were so insignificant in Lena's world.
This made Hugo full of energy again. Now it was his turn to protect his father, it was his turn to realize his father's dream and protect his father's happiness.
The period of Lanches' life was simple and casual, quiet and peaceful, which allowed Hugo to enjoy the long-lost peace, and his mood gradually calmed down. The pressure on his shoulders and the darkness in his heart dissipated little by little in the bright sunshine of Lanches and in Adam's gradually rejuvenated face.
The calmness and ease before the shooting of "Seven Deadly Sins" finally returned after a long absence, and Hugo finally found his own rhythm again.
