Chapter 245 The car broke down
After a good night's rest, everyone got up full of energy the next day. After having breakfast at a roadside breakfast shop, they prepared to rent a car at the place where they had made an appointment to go out for a ride.
"By the way, Dad, where is the taxi company you arranged?" Mingxu looked at Guangzhi and asked in confusion. They had been walking on this road for more than ten minutes.
"We should be there soon, right? The map shows we're very close." Guangzhi looked at the map, scratched his head, and said uncertainly.
"Did you find a cheap taxi company?" Mingxu asked uncertainly.
"Uh..." Guangzhi felt a little embarrassed.
"...Dad, aren't you afraid that the car will break down halfway?" Mingxu asked with a twitch of his mouth.
"I don't think so..." Guangzhi said uncertainly, but the price of this car rental company is really cheap.
"Found it!" Guangzhi's eyes were wandering, and he suddenly saw the name of a store in front of him and shouted.
"Drift ice taxi? This is the one you made a reservation for?" Misaya looked at Hiroshi while looking at the somewhat simple store in front of her.
“Yes, this name has a very Hokkaido flavor.” Guangzhi laughed.
"I'm not sure if it has any flavor, but compared to the taxi company next door, the difference is huge." Mingxu looked at another busy taxi company not far away, then looked at this deserted one, and sighed.
"Okay, really." Guangzhi went forward and opened the door, and suddenly felt that the room was cold and there was a howling cold wind.
"That guy exudes such a cold air." Mingxu looked at the atmosphere in the room and glanced at the guy who was emitting cold air. No wonder he was called Liubing.
"Welcome." This sentence was shouted in a cold tone.
"... appears! The white-haired ice banshee!" Xiaoxin immediately shouted while hiding behind Mingxu.
"..." Mingxu was at a loss for words to refute Xiaoxin for a moment. With this atmosphere and this person, it was no wonder that so few people came to visit.
"Hello, I'm Nohara who made a reservation for a car rental." Hiroshi said somewhat embarrassedly.
"Mr. Nohara, right? We have prepared the best car in our store. We've been waiting for your visit." Although the clerk's tone was very polite, he still exuded a sense of coldness.
"...Let's rent a car and leave quickly." Mingxu said helplessly as he looked at Xiaokui who was trembling a little.
"Okay, wait for me outside. I'll go drive first." Guangzhi shook his head. Meiya immediately took the children outside to wait for Guangzhi to drive out.
"...Is this really the best car?" Not long after, Mingxu saw Guangzhi driving out in a car that made noises everywhere, and asked uncertainly.
"Yes." The clerk replied without hesitation.
“…” The whole family was speechless.
"Get in the car." Guangzhi was also helpless, but since he had already rented a car, he might as well go out for a drive.
The group got into the car reluctantly. Mingxu always felt that the car was on the verge of breaking down at any time.
"This car has so many problems." Guangzhi said as he turned the steering wheel with difficulty.
"And you can also see the scenery under the car." Mingxu murmured as he looked at the hole under the seat.
"It's amazing that I can see the ground." When Shin-chan saw the hole, he screamed in surprise and kept twisting his body.
"Aiya." Xiaokui also wanted to be hugged by Mingxu like Xiaoxin. She turned away angrily and decided that she must ignore this big brother for a day, no, an hour, forget it, just one minute!
"Don't move, Shin-chan, or the car's chassis might fall off." Misaya said fearfully.
After Guangzhi tried hard for a long time, the car finally returned to normal. Although it was still making noises, it was not as loud.
"Huh, it's finally not that loud." Guangzhi exhaled while driving.
"This car is really exaggerated. It's worthy of being called a drift ice taxi." Mei Ya complained.
"This one is cheaper, there's nothing we can do about it. Don't worry about it for now. Look, this endless road is so beautiful." Guangzhi looked outside and diverted everyone's attention.
"Really?" Misae understood what Hiroshi meant and agreed.
"Just like dad's mortgage." Xiaoxin said smoothly.
“…” It seemed as if it was raining in Guangzhi’s sky.
"...Dad, how about..." Mingxu was interrupted by Guangzhi before he could finish his words.
"It's okay, Xiaoxu, Dad can do it himself!" Guangzhi suddenly became very excited.
Two motorcycles whizzed past the window. Mingxu sighed as he looked at the other party's cool and elegant appearance.
"It's okay, we can drive slowly and enjoy the scenery." Guangzhi comforted.
"Yes, look, there are sheep outside." Xiaoxin smiled and greeted the sheep: "Hi~"
"But no matter how slow it is, why do I feel that the sheep are faster than us?" Mingxu looked out the window and asked in some confusion. The sheep that was outside just now was already walking in front of the car.
"But this car can't go any faster." Guangzhi said helplessly as he stepped on the accelerator.
"...Dad, the speed is decreasing..." Mingxu complained as he watched the speed gradually decrease.
"..."
Sure enough, the car slowly slowed down, then successfully stalled and stopped on the side of the road. Fortunately, Guangzhi saw that the situation was not good and drove over to the side of the road.
"Dad, let's get out of the car and take a look." Mingxu said helplessly when he saw that the car was completely motionless.
"Yeah." Guangzhi got out of the car and checked for a long time, then shook his head: "I don't understand it at all."
"What happened? Why did the car stop?" Meiya started complaining.
"Because mom is too heavy." Xiaoxin spoke at the right time.
"No! The car is just too crappy! What kind of drift ice car rental company is this? Who told you to rent a car from such a scam!" Meiya complained and put the blame on Hiroshi.
"You mean this is my fault? If you hadn't booked such an expensive luxury hotel, how could our budget be insufficient! And why would I rent such a crappy car?" Guangzhi complained.
"Alright, alright. Do you think it's really appropriate to quarrel in front of us kids?" Mingxu said while holding Xiaokui and pulling Xiaoxin.
"...Yes, how can we quarrel in front of the children? I'm sorry, wife." Guangzhi apologized.
"No, no, no, I'm sorry, husband." Meiya also apologized. She shouldn't have passed the blame on to others so easily. She did have some responsibility.
"Okay, let's call the car rental company first and see what they say," Mingxu suggested.
"How do we fight? There's no one here, and we don't see any houses." Meiya looked around and said.
"Hey, is that a car?" Xiao Xin asked, pointing in the distance.
"Yes!" Mingxu said sharply.
"Hi~" Several people shouted, trying to stop the car.
The car stopped when it saw a few people. After learning the whole story, the young lady enthusiastically took them to her home to make a phone call.
"Who are Sachi and the others?" A middle-aged man asked the Nohara family in confusion when he arrived at their house.
"It's like this..." Saki explained briefly, and Mingxu grabbed Xiaoxin who was about to show off.
When Guangzhi went to make the phone call, Mingxu and his friends were invited by Shaqi to visit the ranch, and Mingxu and his friends readily agreed.
Shin-chan looked at Saki with shining eyes: "Just looking at you is enough for me, nothing else is needed~"
"You're such a jerk, kid." Saki said blushing a little.
"Okay, okay, you should come over to visit the ranch!" Mingxu pulled Xiaoxin and followed Saki to visit.
"Wow, there are so many cows here." Xiaoxin shouted while looking at the cows not far away.
"Wow, what a big cow." Shin-chan looked at the cow's chest, then looked at Misae, compared them, shook his head and sighed.
Mingxu silently held Xiaokui and moved away for fear of being affected.
Sure enough, Misaya didn't waste any time and punched Shin-chan on the head, causing a big bump.
Soon Guangzhi called and said that the car rental company could only arrange a car tomorrow, so they would need to stay at Shaqi's house temporarily today.
"But you just need to help take care of the livestock." Sachi's father said bluntly.
"Okay." Mingxu answered straightforwardly. After all, since they were taken in, it was normal for them to have some demands.
"Hey, where's Shin-chan?"
"Look, there it is." Mingxu pointed at Xiaoxin who was being chased by the sheepdog.
"Haha, this really creates that kind of atmosphere." Everyone laughed.
The next morning, everyone got up early to help take care of the ranch, milking cows, moving hay, shoveling manure, etc.
I was busy for a long time, and it was not until the sky was completely bright that I finished.
"This really has the atmosphere of Hokkaido," Hiroshi said with a smile.
"Uh-huh."
