Lisco's American Life

"Wow~ This is very beautiful. I see many middle-aged Chinese women wearing this." Mary took it and couldn't put it down.

Lisko wiped some lubricant on his hands and carefully helped her put it on while explaining it to her.

"This bracelet is exquisitely round and thick, solemn and upright. It is suitable for middle-aged and elderly ladies to wear. The bracelet is round and full, with an outer circle, an inner circle, and a ring. It can be said that the three circles in one symbolize a complete career and life. Wearing it on

On the wrist, it can show the gentle temperament of women and also ensure peace."

"Is that so? Then I must take it with me. This is the amulet that Scot gave me!" Mary held her hand, looked at the effect of wearing it, and scratched Lisco's nose happily.

Berman snorted carelessly on the side, took out the newspaper next to him and began to browse absentmindedly, turning his eyes from time to time to express his envy.

Mary and Lisko looked at each other helplessly and smiled.

As this person gets older, his personality becomes more and more like a child's.

"Teacher, here's your gift. This is a jade pendant I chose. It can only be worn by people with status in ancient China. The pattern on this jade pendant is a bamboo. In ancient China, bamboo represented literary people.

It is a symbol of the customs and integrity of bamboo, and it is also a symbol of the sturdiness of bamboo and the code of conduct for scholars to deal with others."

Li Ke took out a piece of white and warm jade pendant and handed it to Bomaner Guanxiang while explaining to him,

"Ancient Chinese literati have loved to wear jade since ancient times, not only because of the preciousness of jade, but also because of its character. The light of jade is from the inside rather than from the outside. It has a graceful look, an open-minded and unrestrained demeanor, and does not reveal its sharpness.

, there is no publicity, no great sadness or joy, no paranoia and excitement, which symbolizes that the state of life presents a mature and rounded state here."

Burmaner suddenly came into contact with this unknown knowledge and showed great interest. After asking Lisko for advice on how to wear it, he happily hung it on his waist, straightened his body, and kept changing his position in the mirror.

It can be seen that the jade pendant is still very popular with him, not to mention that it contains so many truths, which makes it even more popular with him.

These two items were bought by Lisko during his last trip to China. They were genuine items purchased from a regular big-brand jade store. Although they are not antiques, they are modern works of art and are hand-carved. However, due to material issues, they are not as beautiful as flowers.

It cost Lisko a lot of money, but seeing that Mary and Burman liked it so much, it was worth it.

Lisko gave some small items he carried with him, such as some small accessories made of second-grade jade and unique fans, to everyone in the castle, and everyone liked them very much.

When Lisko was traveling, he specially purchased a lot of these things as small gifts for daily friends and visitors. The special things of the mysterious ancient oriental country are still very available and very popular with everyone, so Lisko has always been a headache.

The gift giving problem is solved.

In the United States, it is a good custom for friends and relatives to give each other gifts. Everyone will give something of value that is not necessarily very high to show their closeness. If they are dining as guests, they will give a bottle of wine or a dish they cooked.

Soon it was dinner time, and Lisko had a meal at the castle. The dinner was steak, fried chicken breast, a dish of salmon, fried chicken with mashed potatoes, and finally a dish of clam chowder.

Mary's cooking skills are still so good. Although there are cooks in the castle, Mary still likes to cook occasionally. When she has nothing to do, she also likes to delve into food. But I have to say that her cooking skills are very good. Lisko and his senior brothers have entered the society.

During dinner, we would sometimes talk about the delicious dishes Mary cooked.

Lisko served some clam chowder. He thought he would be uncomfortable with the taste, but he didn't expect it to taste very good. It had not only the taste of seafood, but also the taste of butter.

Grilled salmon is a traditional dish derived from Native American customs, cooked over cedar planks over an open fire and infused with the smoky flavor of the wood.

Lisko cut off a piece and tasted it. Some lemon was squeezed on it, bringing with it the fragrance of lemon. He selected the fatty part of the fish belly, which tasted smooth but not raw, and also had a special fragrance of spices and herbs.

"Okay," Berman knocked on the wall of the cup. Everyone stopped eating and looked at him, waiting for his words.

"Everyone raise a glass." Everyone followed his actions and raised their glasses.

"Welcome home Sco," he said after a moment of silence.

"Welcome home Sco."

"welcome....."

When the teacher said something that was not in line with his usual words, Lisko looked around at everyone gesturing towards him, including the cook, gardener, doorman, maid, and Mary. His eyes couldn't help but turn red, and he drank from the cup with everyone.

of red wine.

After dinner, Lisko followed his instructor to the library.

This library was just a study room at the beginning. For Berman's work and research, materials and books were constantly added. Later, the number of books increased, from the original one room to two or three rooms at the back.

When the castle was being built later, he specially reserved a large part of the open space to build this library. Friends and colleagues all knew that he was collecting books, and they would buy a copy of any book they had never seen before and give it to him.

By the time Lisko went to school, the library already contained millions of books of various types, and the bookshelves were added again and again. Only you can’t imagine that there is nothing that this library does not have, and Berman even specially gave it to this library.

Equipped with three maintenance staff, this library is also well-known in the American literary community.

The library also collects many unique copies of precious documents and materials. These are usually bought at large auctions, which consumes a lot of Berman's money and time.

Lisko strolled among the majestic bookshelves, smelling the fragrance of books, and his mind was really shocked. From here, he can really see every step of human development of civilization, including ancient murals with rubbings, and the ancient beginnings of civilization.

Texts and pictures, records of every step of development, anyone standing here will feel their own insignificance.

"Sko, I have included several of your books in the library." Berman looked at his students from behind and stood in a sea of ​​books, and reminded him.

This library contains very few contemporary literary works. His inclusion of three books by Lisko is the greatest recognition and praise for Lisko.

Lisko followed the instructor slowly to the last bookshelf, where a category was written by hand, and "Lisko's Collection of Works" was written in strong and powerful handwriting.

Lisko was really shocked when he saw it.

"I think you will become a great literary giant, so I specially made a bookshelf for this person. Every book will be collected here. Every step you take towards literature will be recorded here." Berman took the photo.

His shoulders, he said with emotion.
