Lisko’s American Life

It seemed that Xiaoyu met the God of Misfortune today. Lisko stood behind him and watched for nearly half an hour. He hadn't won a game, and what followed was a brain collapse one by one.

How happy Xiaoyu was playing for Lisko just now is how painful it is now. Both of them held back their energy and made up for all the pain they suffered just now.

Lisko observed that Xiaoyu's forehead was red and seemed a little swollen. When he picked up the card just dealt again, he threw it away angrily and spoke.

"Don't play, don't play, this afternoon, I haven't won a game, maybe it's not suitable for playing cards."

He confessed, and the other two didn't continue. After putting away the cards, they patted him on the shoulder comfortingly.

"We were thinking of cheating at the beginning so we could get back the game, but we found out that you are so bad today, there is no need to cheat."

Xiaoyu was very hurt, and looked at Lisko helplessly. He didn't know why he took his place and kept losing.

Because the poker table was broken up, everyone started looking for something else to play. Someone suggested to set off some firecrackers. This idea was unanimously approved by everyone.

Everyone broke up and went home, took apart the firecrackers that were set off for the New Year in their homes, and picked the biggest ones and stuffed them in their pockets.

Xiaoyu took Lisko back to his home, and as soon as he entered the door, he went straight to the utility room, which was specially used for New Year's supplies.

"Eh? Why are you going?"

Father Zhang looked at his son's actions and was a little confused.

"Fire the cannon."

Xiaoyu's movements were very quick, and he packed the things in threes and fives. Before Lisko could say hello, he was dragged away by Xiaoyu, and he could only show a helpless smile to his uncle.

"This kid."

Zhang's father didn't say much, he had been in school for a year, and it was crazy to play in the New Year, but considering Xiaoyu's grades were not bad, he could get a scholarship in school, so for his daily entertainment , Father Zhang did not have too strict regulations.

As for Lisko, he has long heard his brother talk about the background of the other party. He is also an upper-class person in the United States. His son can establish a good relationship with such a person. Mo Zhehei, this proverb can be passed down from ancient times, it is not groundless.

Gathering under the big tree at the entrance of the village, he looked at the crowd around him. It was still the group just playing cards. Everyone stuffed their pockets. It is estimated that there will be many firecrackers tomorrow morning. went out.

"Let's go, fry the fish."

Xiaoyu waved his hand, high-spirited, and led a group of people towards the pond on the east side of the village.

Lisko had never participated in this kind of activity. He was alone in his previous life and lived in an orphanage. Although there were entertainment activities in the yard, it was impossible for him to set off firecrackers.

Every year during the Spring Festival, he would lie on the window sill and watch the crowds of children running around with firecrackers outside. The cheerful laughter could not even be blocked by the walls, and it penetrated into his ears.

After graduating and working, because I am getting older, I don't have the opportunity to play these anymore.

Unknowingly, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he followed the crowd to the front of the pond.

"Is there any fish in here?"

Lisko stretched his head, looked at the quiet pond, and asked suspiciously.

"Yes, I caught one a few days ago. It's very big. There are quite a lot of fish in it."

A boy next to him was explaining, and at the same time looked at Lisko curiously, a little hesitant to speak.

Xiaoyu took out the firecrackers he had, and gave half of them to Lisko, and also sent a lighter.

"Brother-in-law, you play with these. Throw them faster. The lead wire of this cannon is relatively short. If you throw it slowly, you may blow up your hands."

"Okay, I see."

Crack took it with great interest. Firecrackers are bigger than thumbs, and they look powerful. In fact, Lisker grenades have been thrown, but I am still very interested in firecrackers. The obsession of getting what you can't ask for when you were a child.

Leiter sells guns, and grenades are not a rare thing for him, and Lisko has played with them many times.

Pick up the lighter, press the switch, the flame comes out of the fire outlet, point to the fuse, ignite, and immediately throw it into the pond, there are tiny bubbles on the water surface, and then there is a "collapse", a dull sound comes out of the water, The water in the pool collapsed as high as a person.

"Brother-in-law, you threw it too fast, I mean throw it earlier, you threw it too early."

After Xiaoyu finished speaking, he showed him a demonstration, lit a firecracker, kept it in his hand for about two seconds, and then quickly threw it into the pool water.

"bang".

It does sound louder than Lisko's.

Under the leadership of the two, everyone started their own fish frying operation, and the sound of firecrackers kept ringing. As for whether the fish were fried or not, that was not too important, as long as the process was fun.

After Lisko finished throwing all the firecrackers in his hand and didn't see any fish, he couldn't help but doubt that there were fish in this pond, and they might have hibernated in the depths.

After continuing to play for a while, Xiaoyu took Lisko home, because he still has things to do later, and visiting the grave of the deceased elder is something that the adult men in the family must do.

When Lisko returned home, Zhang You had already prepared his things, and took a rough look at them. The basket contained ghost coins, fruits, cooked meat, small hanging firecrackers, ingots folded on golden paper, and yellow gold coins. Something like papyrus.

Because he and Zhang Li were not married yet, it was inconvenient to go with them. Zhang You didn't mention it, and Li Ke was happy to be at leisure, so he didn't go with him.

Xiaoyu, Zhangyou, and Zhang Kui left the house with solemn faces. Li Ke, who had nothing to do, went to the kitchen to help Li Feng and Zhang Li wrap up the zongzi. Time passed bit by bit.

When Zhang You came back, it was already half an hour later. Lisko returned to his room and dealt with unread emails. Although he was in China, he could receive notifications about all the company's affairs. Things cannot be effective without his approval.

Li Feng will start preparing dinner next. The New Year's Eve dinner is the most important family dinner of the year. Of course, it can be as rich as possible. Although there are only four of them in the family, Li Feng still plans to fill the table. To express hope for the new year.

The scent wafted out from the kitchen, making Lisko's stomach, which was not too hungry, start to scream, so he could only take Zhang Li's snacks to appease his restless stomach.
