Lisko’s American Life

The two talked for a while, until Mary remembered that her cookie was battered.

In a burst of exclamation, she threw away the blackened cake, and Mary started to make it again.

While the two were chatting, Lisko told her about his current daily life, while keeping his hands busy.

"Okay, the delicious cookies are out of the pot," Mary put on gloves and brought the baked cookies to Lisko.

A plate of pumpkin biscuits is neatly arranged, and there is a flavor plate in the middle, which contains Lisko's favorite tomato sauce. Because the cake is too sweet, it is a bit boring for Lisko's taste, so I put a little on it. The sour sauce tastes better.

Lisko ignored the heat and reached out to take one. The pumpkin pie was baked to a golden brown, and the unique smell of pumpkin wafted through the nostrils.

Lisko couldn't wait to dip some sauce and stuffed it into his mouth, it was a little hot, and he didn't have time to spit it out.

"That's right, that's what it tastes like." Lisko remembered that he often took this as a snack when he was reading in the library.

"Mary, I think your craftsmanship is better." Lisko gave a thumbs up in praise.

Mary squinted as he watched him eat, her face full of loving light.

"Nonsense, I've always done this. Maybe you haven't eaten for a long time, so why don't you stay here for a few more days this time?" Her eyes were full of anticipation.

Berman and Mary have three children. The youngest child died of illness in the early years. The eldest son joined the government and is currently a state legislator. The second daughter married a wealthy businessman, so they have no one to accompany them all the year round.

Maybe it's because the two children can't stand Berman's old-fashioned way. He has some obsessive-compulsive disorder. When he goes out, he has to wear suits and leather shoes.

The eldest son and the second daughter have a very good relationship with Li Ke's group of tutors' students. There are frequent gatherings, and they are very friendly when they meet. After all, they are a group of natural political backers. , the literary circle is also a lot of help.

"Okay, I happened to be quiet at the tutor's place," Lisko responded with a smile.

Without having breakfast, he quickly ate the whole plate of cookies, and Mary thoughtfully brought a cup of black tea to relieve the tiredness.

Just as he was about to continue the conversation, he was interrupted by footsteps.

"Sco?" A mentor who is wearing a fitting and decent British handmade suit, special sheepskin shoes on his feet, a neatly trimmed gray beard, a British-style top hat, and a special gentleman's walking stick in his hand. Man opened the door and came in.

He took off the top hat and handed it to Bol on the side. His silver hair was neatly combed back. No one would doubt that he was an authentic British gentleman.

"Teacher." Lisko quickly put down the teacup in his hand, stood up and bowed,

"It's alright, sit down," Berman took off his coat, hugged his wife Mary, and took the teacup and sat opposite Lisko.

He looked at the handsome and extraordinary young apprentice now, and was very relieved. Back then, he valued the aura and writing style of Lisko's writings, so he hesitated again and again, but still accepted this apprentice who was only seventeen years old. I didn't expect Lisko's achievements to be so high.

Among the apprentices he has taught, Lisko's literary achievements are currently the highest. Bermaner read his new book "The Catcher in the Rye" as soon as he got it. He is full of praise. He can say with certainty, There has been no better book in the last ten years, and it can be seen that Lisko may be the only writer among his many disciples to win the highest prize in literature.

Although the rest of the students have a deep knowledge of literature, their achievements are limited to professors, spokespersons for various throat departments and other positions. The rest of the students who are engaged in the writing industry can also achieve success and have a high status, but There is no way to become a writer who will be remembered by the world.

So he had high expectations for Lisko, and he hoped that he could watch this little apprentice, who made him proud, go higher and higher in literature.

"Sco, the book "The Wheat Field" is very well written. What are you busy with recently? How is life in your home ranch?"

Lisko answered honestly and truthfully. He respected his mentor very much. He was like a guide in his life, but he couldn't be arrogant in front of an old-fashioned teacher.

"Life on the ranch is very quiet, and the people living in the small town are very simple, which also gave me a lot of inspiration. They have distinct personalities and are very good writing materials."

"I've been busy writing a new book recently. The type of writing this time is to see the world from a child's perspective. I think it should be very interesting."

"Oh? You have a great point of view. Remember to mail me a copy after writing it. I'll have a sneak peek." Berman is very happy to see the high production of his apprentices one by one. Writing a few more books from time to time~www.readwn.com~ can also add your own background.

"By the way," he seemed to suddenly remember something, "I heard that you are in the same city as Haas, have you met him? Are you still so powerful?"

Lisko saw his teacher's concern. Haas was also accepted as a student by the teacher when he was very young. The teacher really treated him as his own son, but the awkward Sir was not very good at handling his emotional expression. This way, Haas was afraid when he saw him. Later, he understood, but this awkward way of getting along was still passed down.

"Senior brother, he is planning to transform now. Recently, he went on a trip at my suggestion. He got a lot of insights and inspiration. He is planning to start work. This time he was going to be together, but he has some things to deal with temporarily.

Of course Lisko couldn't tell all about Haas' current situation, otherwise the old-fashioned teacher would be so mad that Haas was so stupid that he was cheated of his wallet and mobile phone. He was still obsessed and couldn't get out. .

"I only think about the transformation now, and I won't achieve anything in the future." Although Berman's tone was ridiculed and sarcastic, Lisko, who was paying attention, could see from the corner of his raised mouth that his words were insincere.

Lisko quickly changed the subject at this time, and took out the gifts he prepared for his mentor and Mary.

"Teacher, I have a gift for you. This one is for Mary. It is a jade bracelet I bought in China. This is a type of jade, called the three-color bracelet of Fu Lu Shou."

Lisko opened the jewelry box. The three colors of red, green and purple are intertwined on the bracelet. The most rare thing is that the three colors are evenly distributed. It is the treasure of a jade shop. For Mary.
