On Christmas Eve, Aldrich finally lulled Bert and Earl to sleep, they rarely spent the night at their grandparents' side, although there were specially prepared rooms for them, dazzling countless toys, all of which were full of love from grandparents to them, but unfortunately the unfamiliar bed, just couldn't get used to sleeping, and they didn't fall asleep until they were really sleepy until their eyelids fought.

Aldridge was not sleepy yet, and on the night of the game, he had slept late, and he went up to the balcony of the villa, intending to smoke a cigarette in the cold breeze on it.

As soon as he joined, Andrew, who was wearing pajamas and a Santa hat, immediately went to get beer and food, saying that he wanted the three brothers to get together more.

Barnett readily agreed, and finally stared at Aldrich with a smile in his eyes.

Aldrich thought: Yes, everyone has grown up and has their own careers, and it is true that there are fewer gatherings and more separations, and it has become rare to be able to talk to each other in a heart-to-heart conversation.

Naturally, he won't be disappointed.

"Hey, the cruise you sent me was a bit too much, wasn't it?"

Aldrich knows that a cruise ship is nothing in Barnett's eyes, he is worth more than 10 billion, and the Internet bubble has collapsed? Looking at the stock market, this is indeed the case, but in real investment, his assets have not shrunk much, especially the bursting of this round of bubbles, which is also his preparation for integrating resources for the next stage of take-off.

Before Barnett could answer, Andrew was angry and said, "I'm cĒŽo, big brother, you've been biased since you were a child!" It's a cruise ship for Aldrich, what about me? Why is it a sports car? ā€

Barnett said helplessly, "I don't know what he likes." Of course, you have to give gifts to your liking, don't you like to collect sports cars the most? Let's talk about it. How many cars do you have in your garage? Can you go to the driving show? ā€

Andrew took a sip of wine, suddenly laughed again, and said: "23 top-of-the-line sports cars, there are still limited editions, after twenty or thirty years, maybe they will be out of print!" I mean, you should send me at least 1o sports cars, not 1. ā€

"Okay. Go back and make a list for me, and I'll have someone send it to you. ā€

Barnett doesn't care about money at all, as the eldest of the brothers, he has been like this since he was a child, and he has always given whatever his two younger brothers want.

Aldridge spat out the smoke and bumped Barnett's shoulder. He said, "You haven't answered my question yet." ā€

Barnett sighed, "Aldrich, is it interesting to ask this?" Why can't you be like Andrew? Just take it, you're always like this, it's very outward, it seems like you have to distance us. ā€

Aldrich was so choked up that he couldn't speak.

I received a gift of $200 million at once. His first instinct was that the gift was too heavy to accept.

Finally came up with a lame reason to cover it up, Aldrich said helplessly: "The problem is, I don't use this thing much, and I have to invest a lot of money in maintenance and so on every year." ā€

in his personal consumption. Now the biggest annual expenditure is the construction of small islands in Australia and daily expenses, right now. I have to take on a cruise ship again, and when I think about it, it is suddenly very stressful.

The cruise ship is in hand, but where to stop? Don't need to manage? Don't need to clean up and maintain? No need for maintenance? It's not a low cost to start it once.

Barnett pressed one hand on Aldrich's shoulder and said with a smile: "The maintenance cost of the cruise ship is hanging in the name of a company in my offshore financial center, so you don't have to worry about it." I think you should hire a butler to take care of these things for you, just like you do on an island in Australia, you can't take care of everything yourself, right? If you have paid for it and want to relax after work, then go straight to enjoy the ready-made without burdening yourself. ā€

Aldridge grinned and said to Andrew, "Look, the big boss just doesn't talk the same. ā€

Andrew didn't laugh, but mocked: "It's not that he is different, the strangest thing is yourself." ā€

He rolled his eyes after saying that.

Aldrich is so helpless, he is despised!

Come to think of it, it's time to hire someone to take care of these chores.

The three brothers talked about Barnett's business situation in the United States, and a little princess was added to the family, Andrew's personal problems, he was always single and "fooling around", right? When it comes to Aldrich, his situation is the most complicated, the current situation is simply very happy, with a decent family, but there is still a role similar to "ex-wife" from time to time.

Speaking of it, Aldrich also felt a headache.

On average, once a month, Melanie would appear in front of him, ostensibly not for him, to visit his two sons, or to take them out to play, but Aldrich needed to accompany him.

Barnett seemed to care more about reputation, and vaguely reminded Aldrich that it was best not to make a reputation-damaging mess.

Andrew laughed and scolded Aldrich for not knowing the blessing in the midst of blessings, and there were two women around him who robbed him, and how many men couldn't envy him.

"Alas, don't talk about you, go, drive outside to blow the wind."

Andrew's mentions, Barnett and Aldridge actually don't want to go, but they can't stand the ability of the Hall family to mess around, the three brothers changed their outfits and went downstairs, although Andrew rarely comes back to live here, but in the garage of the villa, there are really a lot of his cars, of course, they don't belong to the collection series.

Aldrich and his eldest brother thought they were driving a sports car, but Andrew threw helmets at them.

Aldridge and Barnett wanted to cry without tears.

This winter, Christmas Eve, we go out for a ride on a motorcycle?

Why not make up a few of Arthur's dogs as fawns? Hang them on the line, drag a seat behind them, and let's pretend to be Santa Claus!

Not to mention, the three of them drove out on a motorcycle, and there was a lot of laughter along the way.

The feeling of a long time kept coming to mind.

When he was a child, Barnett had a broken motorcycle, and when he had nothing to do, his eldest brother drove his two younger brothers on the street, which was chic and happy.

Now, they drive high-end motorcycles, and they definitely don't dare to soar, the richer they are, the more they cherish their lives, and they are inevitably vulgar.

Even so, the three of them seem to have returned to their teenage years, driving around the streets unrestrained, aimlessly, forgetting a qiē, and simply enjoying the pleasure and joy brought by degree

Playing more crazy at night, Aldrich got up late on Christmas Day, and as soon as he got up, he received Christmas presents.

Bout's injury sidelined him for at least two and a half months.

After 100 days of injury, Bout injured his arm again, and two and a half months is just a conservative recovery date, and it is another matter before he can play and cope with the key battles.

Aldridge is ready for Bout's reimbursement for the second half of the season.

It was sunny today, Aldrich had no plans to travel, he got up when Evan was already on Arthur's side, and in the afternoon he walked to the lawn in front of the villa, sat on the swing and worked with his laptop.

Bert and Earl are playing football on the lawn, Evan is chatting with his sister-in-law, and Aldridge is struggling to start looking for a first-choice goalkeeper for the second half of the season.

He picked up the phone and called Boas first.

"Hi Vilas, Merry Christmas."

"Uh, Merry Christmas, isn't Bout's injury not optimistic?"

"Guessed?"

"Well, the team needs a reliable goalkeeper, right?"

Part of Boas's job is updating the player profile system that the club has built up over the years, and it's also a hobby of his life.

"Let me ask for it, first, the quality of the goalkeeper bought must be guaranteed, and the experience must be rich. Second, I don't buy this goalkeeper to replace Bout for a long time, when Bout returns from injury, I will look at his form, as long as the competitive form can be restored, Bout will still be the main goalkeeper. Third, don't be too expensive, and I don't want to cause controversy during the winter break. ā€

Aldridge's three requirements, the first one has nothing to say, the second, he really didn't think about taking this opportunity to replace Bout with a better world-class goalkeeper, people have feelings, Bout is trustworthy, and the limit of strength is indeed difficult to compare with god-level goalkeepers, but in Millwall over the years, he has never made irreparable mistakes in key battles, if he is finally abandoned by the team because of his injury, according to his age, it is definitely impossible to accept playing as a substitute, so Aldridge is not rational or emotional, Just to find a firefighter and then be able to play Bout as a substitute in the future. The third requirement is to avoid attracting pressure from outside public opinion due to the transfer and avoid becoming the focus.

"Okay, I'll send you the shortlist as soon as I select it."

"Well, good work, goodbye."

Aldrich hung up the phone and searched for the right candidate on his computer.

To be honest, the suitable candidates he can find in his memory at this stage are almost zero, because the people who can be remembered are basically slightly famous figures, especially the goalkeeper position, which itself is not conspicuous, and there are only a few people who are popular, who have both strength and can come to play as substitutes, which is really pitiful.

Andrew got up later than Aldridge, and now, he walked out in his pajamas with two cups of steaming coffee, still wearing a Santa hat on his head.

He handed Aldridge a cup of coffee, then sat down on the swing next to him, looked at Bert, who was kicking football with his feet, and said with a smile: "Your son looks like he can become a professional player in the future, well, I will be his agent and package him as a big star." ā€

"You'd better stay away from my sons, I don't want them to be ruined by you."

"Hmph, you're qualified to say me? By the time they start to really get sensible, they don't know how you're going to explain what happened to you and Chisholm. ā€

"Don't force me to pour coffee over your head."

"Hey, hey, joking."

Aldrich took a sip of coffee and suddenly turned his head to look at Andrew with a solemn expression.

Andrew was startled and said, "You're not really going to splash me with coffee, are you?" ā€

Aldrich shook his head and said, "Do me a favor and get in touch with the gunners on Fleet Street, and criticize Millwall with all your firepower." ā€

Andrew was stunned and exclaimed, "Huh? ā€
