Episode [161]: Let’s Celebrate Christmas Together!
The 18th round of the 2008-2009 Premier League season ended. Leeds United defeated Aston Villa 2-0 at their home court, scoring three points and reaching 39 points.
In this round of games, Liverpool drew with Arsenal away from home, Chelsea drew with Everton away from home, and only Manchester United defeated its opponent 1-0 at home.
In this way, after 18 rounds of league games, Leeds United finally reached the top of the Premier League!
Leeds United currently tops the league with 39 points, followed by the Red Army Liverpool with 38 points. Chelsea ranks third with 37 points. Then there is the fourth-placed Red Devils Manchester United. They have 36 points, followed by Arsenal and Aston Villa, both of which have 31 points, followed closely by Hull City with 27 points.
By the middle of the league, many teams are showing signs of fatigue.
And the most important thing is that Christmas is approaching, and the players of many teams are not focused on the game, so the current situation will occur.
It will be Christmas in four or five days. The players of Leeds United are in good condition and this game is a win. Zhong Cheng gave the Leeds United players two days off so that they could spend time with their families and spend an early Christmas.
At this time, it started to snow in the sky in Leeds.
Christmas is coming, and so is the snow.
To be honest, the snow is quite heavy, and there are no pedestrians on the streets of Leeds. It seemed as if they had all hid in the house and hibernated.
However, Zhong Cheng and others still appeared on the street that day.
Zhong Cheng took Julia Oliveira, Christina and others to the supermarket to buy groceries!
It's Christmas, let's all get together.
Originally Zhong Cheng wanted to go home and get together with Lao Zhong and the others, but Lao Zhong took Zhong Yao, Zhong Yan and Amelia George to London to spend this Christmas.
Zhong Cheng was originally going to come with me, but Lao Zhong just said: "Get out!"
Lao Zhong not only abandoned Zhong Cheng, but also Zhong Zheng. It was obvious that Lao Zhong was thinking about having a grandson, so he kicked these two people out to accompany his girlfriend.
Yes, Christmas is different now than it used to be.
In the past, Christmas was a time for families to get together and spend a good holiday together. Now there are more pairs of young men and women spending Christmas together, which is almost considered Valentine's Day.
However, there is a saying that for couples, every holiday is Valentine’s Day!
Men and women in love always like to be together. Naturally, it can be said that every day is Valentine's Day.
Zhong Zhengzheng went to find Kelly Fox. It is said that the two of them are planning to spend this Christmas at Kelly Fox's house.
Zhong Cheng leads Julia Oliveira and Christina to spend Christmas together.
Originally, Zhong Cheng gave Julia Oliveira a holiday and asked her to go home and spend Christmas with her family, but the girl chose to stay. Kristina and Zhong Cheng will not succeed in calling them names!
Okay, now that that's the case, let's just spend it together.
Zhong Cheng breathed a sigh of relief, and instantly it turned into white mist. Zhong Cheng's eyes were almost confused. It was cold, it was really cold!
Zhong Cheng took Julia Oliveira and Christina to the supermarket to buy some ingredients. Then after returning home, Zhong Cheng cooked by himself and showed his cooking skills to Julia Oliveira and Christina.
Zhong Cheng's cooking skills are very good, very amazing.
Because Zhong Cheng got his cooking skills from the [Super Football Training System]!
However, Zhong Cheng only cooks Chinese food, some simple Chinese dishes.
But these dishes look simple and many people can make them, but there are really not many people who can make them particularly delicious and unique. Isn't there a saying that says, the simpler something is, the more difficult it is to do.
Some dishes made by Zhong Cheng still have a strong Xichuan flavor.
Julia Oliveira and Christina have been with Zhong Cheng in these years and have adapted to Zhong Cheng's taste. They also like Xichuan flavor very much. Especially in this winter, eating something spicy will keep your whole body warmer.
More importantly, Julia Oliveira and Christina discovered that eating more chili peppers is good for the skin.
Unfortunately, Zhong Cheng is usually too busy and rarely cooks. It is rare for them to eat authentic Xichuan flavor when they go out, which makes them very envious of Isabella George, because Isabella George is in China and it is much easier than them to eat authentic Xichuan flavor. .
Therefore, Christina often flew to China to find Isabella George, and the two often went to eat and drink.
Julia Oliveira is not so lucky. She is almost always with Zhong Cheng, so what free time does she have? Many people describe Julia Oliveira as the shadow of Zhong Cheng. Wherever Zhong Cheng is, Julia Oliveira must be there.
However, Zhong Cheng would still cook some delicious food for Julia Oliveira occasionally when he was in a good mood.
So, each has its own advantages. But Julia Oliveira is more willing to stay with Zhong Cheng.
There were only three of us today, and Zhong Cheng didn't cook much.
Zhong Cheng and the others mainly ate hot pot today, the authentic Xichuan hot pot. Then he cooked a few side dishes, such as cola chicken wings, boiled fish and two vegetarian dishes.
Eating hot pot is very simple, so Zhong Cheng won't spend more time cooking.
Because Julia Oliveira and Christina, two professional women, are reluctant to enter the kitchen. For them, they deal with the smell of oil smoke every day, which will affect the beauty of their skin and so on.
Therefore, Zhong Cheng made something simple and spent more time with them.
But once we sat down and chatted while eating, it was inevitable that the conversation would come to work. In the end, it almost became a meeting for Julia Oliveira and Christina to report on their work.
However, the two of them were still very happy. After all, Zhong Cheng could still spend time with them during such a busy time.
The leagues of other national teams have entered the winter break at this time, and they are all on holiday. The Premier League does not have a winter break at this time, and even during this period, the Premier League teams will play more games, so now is Zhong Cheng's busy time.
During this time, some players are actually unable to spend Christmas with their families, because some teams are going to participate in the so-called Christmas game, which is all played on the court. Where can they spend time with their families? Stay together for the holidays.
Today, Leeds United is lucky enough not to be scheduled for the Christmas Day game.
Leeds United's game was on December 26, the day after Christmas, and Leeds United players walked down the aisle on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day. So, this year is pretty good. In the past few days, Leeds United were playing in the Christmas game.
So, the next day, Leeds United actually had a game, and it was an away game!
Yes, Leeds United will travel to Portsmouth. In other words, the Leeds United players will leave early in the morning for the away game to play this league game. This is very, very demanding for the players of Leeds United.
We just had a holiday tonight, and we have to leave early the next morning. It will definitely be a problem for many players to sleep well. There are also many players who have not adjusted mentally and physically, right?
So why are there always some surprises during Christmas?
Many players from wealthy teams are celebrating the holidays, and losing one or two games is not particularly important to them.
Games during the Christmas period are often not very good.
Zhong Cheng also knows that this game is difficult, and the Leeds United players may not be fully committed to this game. Even if their minds catch up, their bodies still can't.
However, Zhong Cheng did not pay too much attention to this game. He has been busy this year, so it is time to give the Leeds United players a relaxed day. Let them have a good time in this quarter. Leeds United will be stronger in the second half of the season. Just set off.
On this day, Zhong Cheng stayed at home with Julia Oliveira and Christina.
Zhong Cheng first called his parents and wished them a happy holiday.
Then, Zhong Cheng called Isabella George in China and sent her holiday wishes. Isabella George is very busy in China now, and she has become Zhong Cheng’s spokesperson in China.
She is helping to oversee all Zhong Cheng’s businesses in China, and now [Zhong Cheng Film and Television] has several movies and TV series being filmed. Isabella George is the producer of one movie. She was originally He planned to go back to England to spend Christmas with Zhong Cheng.
But she has been really busy recently, so Isabella George missed this time and stayed in China.
Zhong Cheng felt very sorry for Isabella George. For the sake of his own career, he threw a beautiful woman like Isabella George out of China, a place he was unfamiliar with, far away from his hometown. Thinking about it himself, he felt that he was too cruel. Zhong Cheng was thinking about whether to transfer Isabella George back to England and let others take care of China's affairs.
However, Zhong Cheng felt that Isabella George would not agree.
Isabella George is a typical strong woman. She has such a popular career in China. If you ask her to suddenly abandon these careers and return to China, she will definitely not be willing to do so.
Zhong Cheng also discussed this matter with Isabella George and told Isabella George his thoughts. As Zhong Cheng expected, Isabella George really didn't want to return to China, and claimed that she was doing well in China. If Zhong Cheng missed her, she would return to China to be with Zhong Cheng in her spare time.
Now that Isabella George had said everything, Zhong Cheng agreed.
Afterwards, Leeds United players called Zhong Cheng one after another to wish him a happy Christmas.
Zhong Cheng had a very relaxed and comfortable day. This festival was really good. However, as soon as the holiday was over, Zhong Cheng turned his attention to the upcoming league.
This time Leeds United is playing away from home, which is disadvantageous for Leeds United because they have to travel to the away game. This is also a drain on the physical fitness of Leeds United players, which will affect Leeds United's performance in the game.
The next day, Zhong Cheng led the Leeds United players onto the bus and headed to the away game.
On the way to the away game, the Leeds United players were different from the usual noisy chats. They all leaned back in their chairs and fell asleep. It was obvious that they didn't sleep well last night and they were all celebrating the holidays.
Seeing this, Zhong Cheng shook his head helplessly. This game is not easy to play!
