Lisko’s American Life

"By the way, these are the gifts I brought back from China, and each of you has a share."

After Lisko finished speaking, he took out a few packages from his side. Not only Maggie and Colt's, but also Gori and Zachary were included.

"Wow, thank you, I especially like things from Huaguo, thank you for the gift."

After Maggie finished speaking, she handed Zachary back to Colt next to him, and took the package.

"Can I open it?"

Maggie looked at Lisko with longing eyes, seeking his advice.

"certainly."

His hands were spread out.

Maggie found the one with her name on it, and then opened the outer packaging. These gift boxes were all attached to the gifts that everyone gave to Zhang Li on his birthday last time, and were used by Lisko.

"Let me guess, is it the Huaguo knot?"

Maggie did not rush to remove the packaging inside, and put her hand on the box, guessing.

Lisko shook his head. Although the Huaguo knot is indeed a good gift that can be hung at home, because of the increasing number of tourists in Huaguo these years, this kind of souvenir has become very common, and it does not meet the grade of gift giving. .

Seeing that she guessed wrong, Maggie picked up the gift box and shook it. The weight inside was not light, it probably weighed several kilograms.

After thinking about it for a long time, I really didn't know what to give, so I simply opened the box.

"Wow, it's beautiful."

Maggie opened the box, which was white foam, covered with a layer of golden gauze, and inside was an ornament with two end-to-end carp adorned with gold, and the words "more than year after year" beside it.

He bought this at the gift counter. After much deliberation, he decided to give it to Maggie. She is very old, and she is still her own aunt. This ornament has a very good meaning. It is one of the best wishes in the traditional Chinese blessings. one.

There is also a golden lotus decoration next to it. The craftsmanship combines traditional paper carving and gold leaf painting. It is full of design and traditional nostalgic style, and it looks very high-end. It is very suitable for foreigners.

He bought two of these ornaments, one was given to Maggie, and the other was a three-star style of Fu Lu Shou and given to his mentor.

"The meaning of lotus is every year in the future, and the meaning of fish is to wish you surplus food and wealth. This is a well-known blessing in Chinese culture."

Lisko explained, looking at Maggie's expression, she knew that she was very satisfied, stroking up and down.

When the person who receives the gift is satisfied, the heart of the person who gives the gift is also achieved.

"It's my turn."

Colt, a little anxious, handed his son back to Maggie and began to remove his own gift.

Because the number of people was a bit large, Lisko was afraid that he would be confused, so he wrote his name on each gift box.

Colt didn't have so many links. He was born as an athlete, and his movements were rough and powerful. He removed the package after three and five, revealing the gifts inside.

Inside is a set of onyx chess. Although China is the birthplace of chess, but through the cultural spread of Chinese people, this chess card is also very famous in the United States, and Colt certainly recognizes it.

The material of the chess piece is marine agate, which is crystal clear as a whole. It can be exposed to the sun when it is picked up, and it looks very beautiful.

The reason Lisko gave the gift was that in Garrison, where father and son played chess, it was a traditional activity, and he thought that Colt could play this game with his son, in front of a warm fireplace. , that scene must be beautiful.

"I love so much."

Colt stood up and hugged Lisko. Although he didn't know how to play this yet, he believed that after practicing for a while, he could learn it.

Because Goli was not at home, Colt helped to dismantle her gift, which contained a mulberry silk scarf. Lisko purchased a lot of this in bulk. Back for a female friend.

The mulberry silk scarf has a soft luster and soft feel. It is very popular in the United States. It is natural and elegant to wear in the second phase. Many intellectual ladies will choose silk scarves of this fabric to match their clothes.

The one Lisko chose is embroidered with pear flowers, which looks elegant and simple, and I believe Goli will like it very much.

Next is Zachary's gift. The gift for him is the right clothes for a four-month-old child. A red jumpsuit with a big blessing is made of cotton, which is perfect for this season. Yes, as soon as it was taken out, Colt immediately replaced it in place.

Zachary suddenly put on a red suit, which made him look even cuter. His face was a little red against the red, and the size was just right.

It looks very much like a Chinese New Year picture doll, but this doll is blue-eyed and blond.

There is not only one pair in the box, but also several small panda dolls with Chinese characteristics. When Zachary is a little older, holding this toy will definitely become the most popular superstar among the little friends.

The power of the panda is not easy to stop. Even Maggie loves to play with it without looking at it. She even sticks her face on it from time to time. This black and white animal is almost Hua Guo’s most famous business card in the outside world.

There are many kinds of gifts purchased this time, almost all of which solved Lisko's headache of giving gifts in various festivals. There are metal folding fans with masks and plum, orchid, bamboo and chrysanthemum, various ornaments, Hua Guo Feng Yun Jin stationery gift box, and ceramic tableware. And vases, craft pen holders, and Huaguo imitation lacquer ware small screens suitable for placing on desks~www.wuxiamtl.com~ In the United States, it is very common etiquette for friends and colleagues to give gifts to each other, even when the cowboy goes on a business trip. , will buy some local gifts for Lisko to bring back.

When they reluctantly put away the gifts, they began to talk about Lisko's trip to China. Colt was the most interested. According to the previous plan, his honeymoon trip for marriage was to go farther. In this place, you can have a good experience of the newly-married two-person world.

The place chosen at the beginning was China, which was of course influenced by Lisko, but limited by the month of Goli at the time, they were no longer allowed to go too far.

Lisko began to explain to them the customs of China, the customs of the New Year, as well as the taboos in various places. Each region has different habits. This can be seen everywhere in the United States, because this is a multi-ethnic integration immigration. nation.

China has a vast land and vast resources, and the customs of almost every province and city will be different. It is common knowledge that almost everyone knows the customs and habits of preparing for a place.

And they also rarely heard of the backward and barren China that was different from the TV propaganda, and they would be surprised to discuss the wonderful places.
