Lisko's American life

Chapter 69 Castle Gathering 1 (Thanks to liuhengshuo for the reward again)

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

In a scream of exclamation, she threw away the black cake, and Mary started making it again.

As the two chatted, Lisko told her about his current daily life, and kept busy.

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

A plate of pumpkin cookies is neatly arranged, and there is a saucer in the middle, which contains Lisko’s favorite tomato sauce. Because the pie is too sweet, it is a bit greasy for Lisko’s taste, so it is stained a little The sour sauce tastes better.

Regardless of the heat rising, Lisko stretched out his hand and took one. The pumpkin pie was roasted golden and the unique smell of pumpkin came out.

Lisko couldn't wait to dip some sauce into his mouth, it was a little hot, and it was too late to spit it out. The sour taste of ketchup and the sweet taste of the cake were intertwined.

"Yes, it's the taste," Lisko remembered that he used this as a snack when he was reading in the library.

"Mary, I think your craftsmanship is better." Liske praised her thumbs up.

Mary squinted her eyes and watched him eat, her face full of love.

"Nonsense, I do this all the time, maybe you haven't eaten for too long, so you should stay here for a few more days this time?" Her eyes were full of expectation.

Berman and Mary have three children. The youngest child died due to illness in the early years. The eldest son joined the government department and is currently a state councilor. The second daughter is married to a wealthy businessman, so they are not accompanied all year round.

Maybe it's because the two children can't stand Berman's old-fashioned style. He has some obsessive-compulsive disorder. When going out, he must be in suits and shoes. This is his attitude towards life.

The eldest son and second daughter have a very good relationship with the students of Lisko’s mentors. They often have parties and they are very affectionate when they meet. After all, this is a group of natural political backers. He can sit in the seat of parliament before he is 40 years old. , The literary world is also a lot of help.

"Okay, it happens to be quiet here at the instructor," Lisko responded with a smiley face.

Without breakfast, he quickly ate a plate of cookies, and Mary intimately brought a cup of black tea to relieve his greasiness.

Just about to continue the conversation, he was interrupted by a sound of footsteps.

"Sco?" A mentor who wears a close-fitting British handmade suit, special sheepskin shoes on his feet, a neatly trimmed gray beard, a British style top hat, and a special gentleman's cane in his hand. Manl opened the door and entered.

He took off the top hat casually and handed it to Boll, whose silver hair was neatly combed. No one would suspect that this was an authentic British gentleman.

"Tutor." Lisko quickly put down the tea cup in his hand, got up and bowed.

"It's okay, sit down," Berman took off his jacket, hugged his wife Mary, and took the tea cup and sat across from Lisko.

He looked at the handsome young apprentice now, and he was very pleased. Back then, he valued the aura and writing style of Lisko’s essays, so he hesitated and 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 achievement is currently the highest. His new book "The Catcher in the Rye" Berman read it as soon as he got it, and he was full of praise. He can say with certainty, In the past ten years, there will be no better than this book. It can be seen that Liske may become the only writer among his many disciples to win the highest award in the literary world.

The rest of the students certainly have a deep knowledge of literature, but their achievements are limited to professors, spokespersons in various throat departments, and the rest are students who are engaged in writing professions that can also succeed, and their status is lofty, but There is no way to become a writer who is remembered by the world.

So he has high expectations for Lisko, and he hopes that he can watch this little apprentice, who makes him proud, go higher and higher in literature.

"Sco, the book "Rye Field" is very good. What have you been up to lately? How is your life on the ranch in your hometown?"

Li Ske answered honestly and truthfully. He respects his mentor. The mentor is like a guide in his own life, but there is no way to be presumptuous in front of a staid teacher.

"Life on the ranch is very quiet, the life of the people in the small town is very simple, and it has also brought me a lot of inspiration. They have a bright personality and are good writing materials."

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

"Oh? Your opinion is great. After you finish writing, remember to mail me a copy. I want to see it as soon as possible." Berman was very happy to watch the apprentice’s prolific one by one. The writer’s inspiration is time-limited and can be young Write a few more books from time to time, you can also add your own heritage.

"By the way" he seemed to remember something suddenly, "I heard that you and Haas are in the same city, have you met him? Isn't it still so powerful?"

Liske recognized 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 Lord Jazz was not very good at handling his emotional expressions. The way, Haas was scared when he saw him, and later some forgiveness, but this awkward way of getting along still passed down.

"Senior brother, he is planning to make a transition now. Recently, he took a trip at my suggestion and got a lot of insights and inspiration. He is planning to start work. This time he was going to be together, but temporarily he has some things to deal with, so I can only come over by myself."

Of course Lisko couldn’t tell all about Haas’s current situation. Otherwise, the stupid teacher heard that Haas was so stupid that he had been cheated of his wallet and cell phone. He is still obsessed and unable to get out. .

"I just think of the transformation now, and there will be no achievements in the future." Although Berman's tone was ridiculed and ridiculed, Lisko, who was watching carefully, could still see his insincereness from the corner of his raised mouth.

At this time, Lisko quickly changed the subject and took out the gift he had prepared for his mentor and Mary.

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

Lisko opened the jewelry box. The bracelet was intertwined with three colors of red, green and purple. The most rare thing is that the three colors are evenly distributed. It is a treasure of the town of a jade shop. It was purchased by Lisko's senior and I planned to take it. Come for Mary.
