Lisko’s American Life

Chapter 23: visit the Lin family

In the early morning, Megan woke up, looked around, and there was no one there. She washed up and went downstairs. As expected, Li Ke had just finished running breakfast in the morning.

Meghan quietly walked behind him and hugged him.

"Haney, good morning."

Lisko enjoyed his lover's hug, "Morning, breakfast will be ready soon, I'll make the fried eggs and eat them."

Meghan obediently poured the heated milk and tidied up the table.

Lisko fry the eggs, sandwich the slices of bread and ham, and put them on the table.

The two began to have a warm breakfast.

"Haney, you have a lot of oil paintings in your house, is that true?" Megan looked at the changed room while eating breakfast.

"No, it's fake. I felt that the wall was a little empty, so I bought some imitations to hang on them. When I went to China later, I bought some beautiful Chinese ink paintings, very elegant paintings, very artistic." Lisko Answered with milk.

Megan didn't comment on these things she didn't understand. She knew that Lisko liked Chinese culture very much. "Is there anything today?"

"I'm going to visit a friend I just met. He is of Chinese descent. His home is in a nearby town. He is very enthusiastic. I must go today. Do you want to come together?" Lisko said his plan for today.

The Chinese was Lynch, the no-nonsense northeastern man who gave Lisko a gift at the second-hand auction. Yesterday, he called Lisko several times and invited him to be a guest.

Enthusiasm was difficult, Lisko had to agree, and planned to go to the meeting later. He felt a little happy that he had a friend from the Northeast. He was not far away, and he could often drop by and speak Mandarin.

Meghan is also somewhat interested. She has never made friends in China. Under Lisko's Amway, she is also curious about the mysterious ancient country with a history of 5,000 years.

"Okay, do we need any gifts?" Megan asked curiously.

"Of course, it would be rude to visit someone else's house empty-handed in China." Lisko wiped his mouth, and I went to see what to prepare. "

Opening the dusty wine cellar, Lisko turned a blind eye to the red wine and whisky placed in front of him, went straight to the bottom, and took out a red box from the wooden box.

There are two big characters "Moutai" written in Chinese on it. This is the authentic Moutai liquor that Liske bought in New York. For the Northeasterners who are good at wine, this must be a good gift.

I took eight bottles of wine, and the singular number in Chinese is a number that is not good in homophony and needs to be avoided. Lisko went to the kitchen of the ranch again, where the elk killed by the cowboys were placed in the ranch. Lisko chose a sturdy deer and loaded it into the car. He also brought some lavender essential oil and pure lavender that were reserved for gifts from the ranch. Lu, these gifts are classy enough.

Venison has been kept in the staff restaurant of the ranch because Lisko doesn't know how to cook deer dishes. This time, he also plans to learn the recipe from Lynch's father, so that he can make it himself in the future, otherwise such good nourishing ingredients will be wasted.

Lisko packed up the gifts to be sent and drove to the nearby town of Fort Collins with Meghan in makeup.

After an hour's journey, Lisko had arrived at the destination, and Lynch's parents and Lynch had already received a call and were waiting outside.

"Hello, Lin Bo, my name is Li Ke, I'm a rancher." Li Ke got out of the car and greeted Lynch's father, Lin Guozhong.

Lin Guozhong is in his fifties this year, and his long career as a chef has made him unavoidable with a unique big belly. He followed his fellow villagers to the United States to work in the early years, and when he seized the opportunity, he opened his own Chinese restaurant, which is still his own. The chef, who has been in business for more than ten years, has a small reputation in this town, and has also attracted many repeat foreign customers who like Chinese food.

His son Lynch had nothing to do at home after graduating from college, so he called him to help in his restaurant. His wife and son were by his side. Isn't the family life very good? , in the future, the restaurant will be handed over to him, and he will be able to enjoy his retirement.

The day before yesterday, my son went to a neighboring town to play, and said that he met a foreigner who ran a ranch. His grandfather was Chinese and spoke fluent Mandarin. Lin Guozhong's first reaction was disbelief. Lin Guozhong has no opinion. His son has been here for more than half a year and has nothing to do with friends. They are very hospitable in their northeast, so Lin Guozhong put up the "rest today" sign early, got up early to get the ingredients, and prepared them for his son. Friends show their hands.

When Lisko opened his mouth to greet him in Mandarin, he still didn't respond, but obeyed his body's reaction, repeatedly agreed, and greeted him and went into the room to sit.

Lynch's mother is an ordinary Chinese woman named Yu E. She looks very gentle. She washes up in the restaurant on weekdays and takes care of her son and husband. She also welcomes Lisko's visit. I also really want to see what my son's friend who can talk to each other looks like.

"Limber, I brought something," Lisko opened the trunk to get the gift, and Lynch greeted Megan.

"I've come here, what are you bringing?" Lin Guozhong was a little surprised. This foreigner is quite familiar with Chinese etiquette.

"It's the rules to bring," Lisko responded with a smile.

Several people entered the restaurant with their things.

The restaurant occupies three rooms and looks very spacious. The decoration is in accordance with the Chinese style. It looks no different from the domestic Northeast restaurant. The tables and chairs here have individual two-seater seats, and the stools of other large tables are The domestic long bench, UU reading www.uukanshu.com Lisko felt particularly cordial when he saw these.

Entering the room, Lisko introduced Megan to everyone, "This is my girlfriend, Megan Fox, you can just call her Megan."

Meghan greeted in stumbling Chinese. "Tired people are proud."

It made Lisko and Lynch laugh.

After the trouble, Lisko opened the gift introduction, "Lin Bo, I brought a few bottles of wine, you can see if it's true."

Saying that, he took out Maotai and handed it over.

"Oh, my dear, Maotai." Lin Guozhong took it and took a good look, "Yes, it's true, now it's a good thing, it's still a commemorative model in 1998, but now the old nose is expensive." Lin Guozhong touched it fondly. .

Li Ke took out the remaining bottles, and Lin Guozhong was even more excited now, holding his hand and talking non-stop. "It's a waste, nephew."

"It's alright, no one will drink it where I leave it. This thing is serious when it is in Lin Bo's hands. Lin Bo kept it to drink slowly. It was also given to me by someone else, so it's not worth the money."

Lisko was polite, opened the big bag again, and the head of the elk leaked out, "This is the deer in my ranch. I can't do this, I brought it here to pay for Lin Bo's tuition, I want to learn how to cook delicious food, so good I won't be able to use the ingredients for nothing."

"It's easy to say, it's easy to say, I'll give you Laodi, this Lu Zhuang, venison tonic, I'll cook it for you later, good ingredients."

Lin Guozhong lives here and has bought deer many times. He is also very good at cooking venison, so seeing deer is not as exciting as when he first arrived.

Li Ke gave lavender essential oil and pure dew to Lin's mother Yu E. She was also very happy. Women love beauty, especially this pure dew, which is very good for the skin. It is too expensive on weekdays and is not willing to buy it. This time Li Si Ke gave her such a precious gift, and she liked it very much.
