Rebirth of America, this is my time
Chapter 4 Evelyn Johnson
The sudden call made Ethan Jones' eyes light up as he remembered his plan.
He went downstairs decisively, and when he came to the living room on the first floor, he happened to see a girl walking into the house carrying a handbag.
The girl wore a bell-shaped hat and had thick orange-red hair flowing down her shoulders.
He was wearing a white sweatshirt on his upper body, with ERA printed on the left sleeve and PEACE printed on the right sleeve. He was wearing a pair of blue slim-fitting jeans, and a pair of brown and white saddle shoes on his feet.
At first glance, it gives people a feeling of vitality.
Seeing Thomas and Linda approaching, the girl opened her arms decisively and gave them a big hug.
Dad! Linda! I miss you so much!
We miss you too, Evelyn.
Thomas and Linda kissed the girl on the cheek, showing their love unscrupulously.
Linda even said: Oh, Evelin, you came back just in time. I have already prepared dinner. I made Dungeness crab and clam soup tonight, by the way! Didn't you say before that there is Is the California roll in a Liben restaurant good? I asked someone to find out. Their California roll is filled with processed avocado instead of sashimi, so it tastes very crispy. , I tried to do some today, please go and wash your hands.
Really? The girl's eyes lit up, I really love you to death! Linda!
I love you too baby.
Just as the girl was jumping about to get into the restaurant, Ethan, who was standing behind Thomas and Linda, also entered her field of vision.
When Ethan discovered that the girl finally turned her attention to him.
He also showed a happy smile and took the initiative to say hello, Hi, Evelin, good evening.
I'm not okay, Ethan.
However, the girl immediately stopped smiling and kept a straight face.
The attitude of keeping strangers away was as if Ethan owed her millions.
How did you talk to Ethan? Thomas was a little unhappy.
He is your brother. He emphasized.
Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!
Thomas' words made Evelin raise her voice and roll her eyes, I know! Ethan is my brother! But I don't want to be the sister of such a fool! Okay?
With that said, she changed direction and went directly upstairs.
The sudden turn around made Thomas' face freeze. Linda also wanted to lighten the atmosphere: Evelin, it's time to eat.
I won't eat! I'll be so angry when I see him! Evelin said loudly.
At the same time, she stamped her feet vigorously.
The sound of bang bang bang~ is the groan of the wooden stairs being overwhelmed.
This sight made Thomas very angry and roared, Forget it if you don't eat! I won't starve you to death even with this meal!
Then, he turned his attention to Ethan and Linda, Let's go eat.
Ethan raised his head and glanced upstairs.
The figure that disappeared instantly made him raise his eyebrows.
Just like Thomas said, Evelin is him, or the sister of the original owner of the body, but the relationship between the two...
Well, in the memory of the original owner of the body, the relationship between them was not actually so rigid in the beginning.
Evelyn's full name is Evelyn Johnson. She was born in 1954. She is the daughter of Ethan Jones' uncle Thomas Johnson and his late wife. The same year Evelyn was born, her mother died of an illness caused by Serratia marcescens.
The death of his beloved wife made Thomas very sad. Since he had no childcare experience and was still a male biologically and self-consciously, he asked Linda, who was working as a farmer in his orchard at the time, to help take care of the child. Feelings developed, and Linda naturally became Evelin's stepmother.
Because Evelin was brought up by Linda, their relationship was very good. In addition, Linda had fertility problems and she and Thomas had no children of their own. They always regarded Evelin as her own. , Therefore, the worries of the rich family completely disappear.
In this case, when Ethan Jones was picked up by Linda because his parents died, Evelin also took great care of this little brother, going to and from school with him, doing homework with him, and letting him His father Thomas enrolled them in the same interest class, learned karate and horse riding with Ethan, and went to SAT cram school together.
In Evelin's opinion, if nothing else happens, Ethan Jones will go to a good university with her help, because she applied for college a year earlier than Ethan, and she got into Stanford, which is near her home.
But who would have known that Ethan gave up his studies after finishing high school, listened to some anti-intellectual remarks, and wanted to join the society.
This behavior made Evelin almost angry to death, and in the next three years, she never gave Ethan a good look.
Ethan, who had traveled through time, actually agreed with Evelin's approach.
There was no way, who could make him understand that Ethan's sister Evelin and aunt Linda were both right?
Studying may not be the only opportunity to change your destiny, but it is indeed the easiest choice to change your life. Academic qualifications may not represent a person's ability, but it can make others aware that people with academic qualifications have passed most assessment screenings.
Therefore, after traveling back in time, Ethan tried to repair the relationship with his sister who was not blinded by the concept of happy education, but unfortunately, this process did not seem to be satisfactory.
Sighing, he followed his aunt and uncle into the restaurant.
Because he was angry, Thomas had a long face during the meal, like a shoehorn.
As the head of the family, he didn't say anything, so Linda and Ethan couldn't speak. When everyone couldn't bear the stagnant atmosphere, Linda finally stood up.
She put the still warm Dungeness crab, which weighed about two pounds, on the dinner plate, then filled a bowl of clam soup, took a California roll, and said, I'm going to bring her something to eat.
I'll do it. Ethan suggested.
You? Linda was a little surprised.
Even Thomas gave him a confused look.
Yes, I'll go.
Ethan smiled and said frankly: Actually, we all know why Evelin has been angry with me all these years. She thought my idea of giving up college at the time was childish and immature. Although I still feel that, Studying may not be suitable for me, but I also have to admit that when I dealt with this matter, I was a little too willful. I owe her an apology, so let me do it...
Oh, Ethan...
Linda pursed her lips, tears flashing in her eyes.
hey-hey……
Thomas smiled instead, reached out and patted Ethan's butt gently.
Go ahead, boy, you're like a Texas cowboy now! Even though I hate those idiots!
With the support of the two, Ethan carried the food upstairs. Looking at the closed door, he held the tray with one hand and knocked on the door with the other.
After several dong dong dong sounds, a brief inquiry came from inside.
who?
I.
...
Two seconds later, a voice came out again.
Get out of here, I don't want to see you.
Evelin's calm voice and violent words were perfectly combined.
After hearing the words fuck off, Ethan laughed directly, then leaned against the door and said: Evelin, I know you have been angry with me all these years, but I came today to talk to you. You celebrated.”
I'm free, I was expelled from Mi Luohua.
Because of Nolan Bushnell.
Ethan's words received no response.
But he was not discouraged and continued: You know what? They actually didn't want to compensate me at the beginning. They used the reason that I had caused huge losses to the company to intimidate me into leaving the company on my own.
But I stood up and threatened them in turn, scaring them into giving me 2N+1 compensation.
Having said this, Ethan paused again.
After seeing that there was still no response, he smiled and said: Do you know what reason I used to scare them today? It was the content of your chat with Thomas before.
Do you still remember that a month ago, Thomas complained to us at the dinner table that the chambers of commerce in Liben deliberately lowered the purchase price of our navel oranges? You said at the time that this was because Liben was unwilling to accept the post-war status quo and wanted to be free. As a test of sovereignty, I used the idea you mentioned to label them as foreign capital wanting to erode our country's industries, forcing them to take the initiative to compensate me.
To be honest, reading can really broaden your horizons and broaden your thinking.
You have a valid point.
At this point, Ethan stopped.
After waiting for about two or three seconds, a voice came from the room, The door is not locked.
This fact made Ethan grin.
When he opened the door, everything inside was revealed in front of him.
It was a square room of nearly two hundred square feet, with a window on the north and south sides.
Under the south window, there is a bed with a poster of Barbara Streisand taped to the head of the bed, and a wardrobe next to it.
Under the corresponding north window, there is a desk and a bookshelf. The top of the bookshelf is piled with books, and there are many tape boxes on the top.
At this moment, Evelin was sitting at the desk, immersed in reading under the light of an incandescent lamp.
Maybe Evelin didn’t want Ethan to know what she was looking at, but maybe she was hungry and wanted to eat.
When footsteps sounded behind her, she closed the book in her hand and moved it to the corner of the table.
This action also allowed Ethan to see the cover of the book clearly.
It was a magazine with a yellow background and blue labels.
At the top of the cover, its name is written——
Popular Electronics.
Note: ① Barbra Streisand: Orthodox Jewish actress, winner of Tony Award, Oscar, Golden Globe Award, and Grammy Grand Slam. ②Popular Electronics: Popular Electronics, a monthly magazine, has been published in the United States since the 1950s. It is a legendary book in the field of electronic engineering.
PS, after thinking about it, I added the notes. There are also supplements in the first chapter. Because many things are too old, it is indeed difficult to read without notes. Just refresh it invisible. Then the update time is 12 noon and 8 pm every day. Twice a day.
