约翰丹佛是霭青很熟悉很喜欢的歌手，他那首乡村的路带我回家人人都能哼唱。霭青现在坐在乔治和维克之间，“你会唱吗？”

    乔治摇摇头，琴弦一拨，一首欢快的曲调出来。

    歌曲欢快俏皮，乔治唱完，朝霭青挤了挤眼睛。

    霭青拍了拍乔治的脸，“我的乡村小子。”

    乔治笑道，“我就是，就是我，一个乡村小子。”

    “哎呀，”霭青突然想起什么，“我都忘了，我带来了礼物，还留在车里呢。”

    霭青说着，跑到外面，从车里拿出三个纸袋，她首次见公婆，不知道送什么礼物合适，乔治也没想法，什么都行。

    霭青给婆婆挑的果盘，送给公公一瓶威士忌，维克一套毛线围巾帽子手套。
