Chapter 199: The Celebration of the Millennium
ps: During this time, because of frequent overtime, the update is a little late, please forgive me
Although he promised Jory that he would not embarrass Smith, this does not mean that George will have a good face with Smith, although he wants to make himself smooth, he may be able to do it to others, but the smiling Mimi in front of him, who ignored him when he was a child and did not fulfill a trace of fatherly responsibility, can't show a smile.
Looking at Smith, who was sitting on the sofa in the middle of the living room with his own coffee and still chattering despite the look of annoyance on George's face, if it weren't for the fact that his mother would occasionally come out of the kitchen to check on the two of them who were alone in the living room, he would probably really come forward and punch the smiling face that made him look bored to see it, and make him shut up completely.
But fortunately, Yang Weiye and Huang Yuqing soon came to the house, and George could leave the person in front of him who annoyed him for the time being, and quickly got up and walked to the door of the villa to greet the teacher and Huang Yuqing.
Today's Yang Weiye is wearing a robe, a pair of soft-soled cloth shoes with thousand-layer soles on his feet, his hair is meticulously combed, and the temperament of a well-educated person is vividly displayed at this moment, of course, when George saw this scene, what came to mind was the intellectuals and underground parties with top hats during the Republic of China.
Although he soon felt that his imagination was a little ridiculous, he had experienced the bombardment of many anti-Japanese dramas, and he couldn't get rid of the frozen picture in his mind at this moment.
"Boy, don't laugh, this is a dress that your master sewed for me according to my request, and I think it's better to keep our tradition in Los Angeles.
When you walk in Chinatown during the Spring Festival, you will know that this year's Chinatown will have a earth-shaking change, we cannot be assimilated by Westerners, people are in their homeland in a foreign land, from now on we will officially start to promote our culture to Europeans and Americans, so that they can accept our culture!"
Looking at George, who was standing in front of him staring at himself and not listening, he saw the next uncomfortable look that he wanted to laugh and didn't dare to laugh, Yang Weiye stretched out his hand and gently knocked on his head, stroked the hem of his clothes under the long-distance run, walked straight past George, and walked towards the living room.
"George, this is when Mr. went out into the street to have breakfast in the morning, he saw a lot of people wearing this costume, and he went back after breakfast to change into this outfit, but don't you say, Mr. is no different from the people in the movie who have college questions. ”
Huang Yuqing, who finally got out of the car, looked at Yang Weiye, who knocked on George's head and walked into the villa, looked at the villa in front of him and the surrounding scenery with some envy, and then walked to George's side and explained.
Although he can often hear news from George in Yang Weiye's mouth, through his own observations, whether it is George often airlifting some rare ingredients when he was studying at Harvard or gifts to his wife and brother, it can be revealed that George's family is not ordinary, especially the person who claims to be the housekeeper who is standing in the villa and talking to Yang Weiye also sends some things over from time to time, all of which show that the identity of George's family is not ordinary.
But now he knows what a difference this is, after coming to the United States for a few years, although he rarely goes out of Los Angeles, but living in the metropolis of this country, he also knows what kind of rich man can be to own such a large estate in Marbury Beach.
But fortunately, in the past few years, under the teaching of Yang Weiye in his spare time, he slowly began to learn a lot of things, and he is no longer the little guy who knows nothing and gets on the ship of the United States in order to make money with his eyes closed, and he also knows that the United States is a country where money is paramount, and money represents everything here.
In addition, George has never shown a condescending expression in front of it, although he was surprised and envious, but because of the acquaintance of the two, he let him dispel the shock of entering the manor at the beginning, and when he got out of the car, he saw Yang Weiye's dissatisfaction with George's expression and pulled him back to reality.
"Are there any special events in Chinatown in January?"
Seeing Huang Yuqing's calm appearance, George gave him a thumbs up in his heart, he is worthy of being a person who has been with the teacher for three years, even if he has never seen anything, he can quickly maintain a calm state of mind in such a scene, just by virtue of this, as long as he leaves the teacher's side in the future and is willing to work hard, he will definitely be able to make achievements.
Not everyone can quickly restrain their shocked appearance like Huang Yuqing when they come to this manor, become calm, and still speak as usual, without any abnormality or a trace of flattery.
Of course, it can also be because he doesn't understand anything, and it's not impossible that he simply doesn't have any feelings about the layout of the manor, but George, who has more contact with Huang Yuqing, definitely doesn't believe that Huang Yuqing will be a person without any knowledge.
"This year's Chinatown is going to hold a lion dance competition, and the lion dance team from Canton Province has been in Los Angeles for a while, but because of training, they paid to put them in a hotel owned by Chinese people with a large amount of spare space, otherwise you would have met them yesterday. ”
Hearing George's words, Huang Yuqing said to George without thinking about it, after all, George is also a part of the Chinese, although he is of mixed race, but as far as he knows, Yang Weiye has paid his share of the fee for George for this century New Year's Eve lion dance celebration.
In Yang Weiye's words, although George is mixed-race, but Huaxia is a compatible country, as long as he has the blood of Huaxia and admits that he is the descendant of the dragon, then it is fine, not to mention that George began to learn Chinese culture since he was a child, which is not possessed by many Chinese born in the United States who have been assimilated, if he can't become a part of it, then who can become a part of them, those so-called yellow-skinned and white-hearted people can't do it.
"Lion dance?"
Hearing Huang Yuqing's words, George paused, he didn't expect that Chinatown was going to hold a huge event for New Year's Eve to attract people's attention, was this the first step for them to prepare to make their voices heard?
In the past, although there was also a lion dance party, but it was a celebration that would only appear when the Chinese celebrated the Spring Festival, but now because it is a new century and a rare new millennium, it is not impossible to hold such a grand event, after all, people's lives are just a few decades, and it is also a kind of joy to meet such a prosperous era.
However, George thought a lot about the fact that Yang Weiye often told him that he wanted to unite the Chinese in Los Angeles and let them fight for their rights, you must know that the Chinese Exclusion Act has not been completely abolished, and all kinds of discrimination still exist, plus the Chinese are not a combative race in the United States, they just make a fortune quietly, but they ignore a lot of their own rights and interests that can be fought for.
If you don't fight for the rights you deserve, do you still need to wait for others to automatically send what you need, there will be no such benefits in the world, and the main thing is that the Chinese are not a nation that is keen on politics, so many people who have the right to vote often ignore their rights, so that those politicians in the United States automatically ignore them, and those who can't bring them support and benefits will not exist in their daily memories.
Hearing this, George didn't ask anything, he believed that the teacher would greet him when needed, since he didn't mention it to him, he was not needed now.
