Chapter 188: Christmas Eve is coming
George's words were like a pebble being thrown into the calm water of a lake, which made Yang Weiye stunned for a while, for him, the love of his hometown and the original things have gradually only existed in the memory of the depths of his mind with the passage of time.
The moment he left his homeland, he never thought that one day he would be able to go back? After all, he was also a man of the year back then, and if he hadn't been forced to be helpless, he wouldn't have left the homeland where he was born and raised.
Even after leaving his homeland, he has been listening to what has happened there and how it has changed over the years, and he has never thought of going back.
"George, let's talk about it later!"
After contemplation, Yang Weiye looked at George, who was still looking at him with ardent hope, an ugly smile appeared on his face, he stood up and patted George's shoulder, and slowly walked upstairs with some heavy steps.
Looking at the teacher's departing back, George sat there without any movement, only a slight frown on his brows.
In his opinion, there is a difference between a teacher and a mother leaving their homeland, after all, his mother left in a fit of anger because she couldn't accept the changes in the family.
What is the reason for the teacher? As his student, how could a person who possesses the soul of Huaxia not know that little thing between cultural people!
In addition to worrying about the country and the people, he devotes himself to the work of building and changing the country with his dreams, but the dream is beautiful, but the reality is skinny, and those who cannot see clearly between the dream and the reality are doomed to failure.
There is no peach blossom paradise in the world, it is just an illusory existence, but in the minds of the so-called literati and blood youth, they are willing to regard it as a real place, but they have not found it.
For the so-called dream, in the process of moving forward, they are incomparably struck by reality, and when their thoughts are not firm or their setbacks are too ruthless, they will pretend to be an ostrich, bury their heads in the sand in the hope that the natural enemy will not see it, and even drift across the ocean from that sad place.
After more than ten years of contact with the teacher, how can George not understand the kind of nobility in the teacher's bones, which is a unique temperament of a literati.
The concept of "don't eat what comes to eat" has always existed in his heart, and even deeply imprinted in his bones, even if it is his own student, which is why George did not mention it after he saw that the rice shop business was not doing well in the past, and offered to help him change careers after being rejected.
While other literati would bend down in order to make a living, his teacher did not bow his head like reality, and was still freely switching between reading and hard work.
"Brother Qing, I'm going back, don't open the door tomorrow, I'll send someone to pick you up and we'll have a festival together. ”
George, who had woken up from his contemplation, picked up the cup of bamboo leaf tea in front of him that was still steaming and slowly drank it with the aroma of nature, stood up and walked to the shop, and said to Topaz Qing, who was already sweating but still moving rice.
"Going to your house for Christmas?
Hearing George's words, Huang Yuqing put away the rice bag on his shoulder, then turned to look at George.
"The teacher went upstairs first because of something else, I don't want to disturb him now, tell him when you see him later, I don't think the teacher will refuse. ”
After saying that, George reached out and patted Topaz Qing's bare shoulder, which was covered with sweat, and turned to walk out.
George, who left the rice shop, bought things such as rock sugar gourds and marshmallows brought by some people in Chinatown, and then headed for the estate in Marbury Beach.
After a two- or three-hour delay in Chinatown, the road out of town was no longer as congested as it was when it came down from Billy Mountain.
All the way back to Marbury Beach, Marbury at this time is completely different from yesterday, the trees are full of colorful lights, and you can see a few childlike children chasing Santa Claus and reindeer from time to time to get boggling for gifts.
Christmas music also sounded in the sound of the trees on the side of the street, and when you entered the manor area, the manor was located as if the owner had infinite tacit understanding, with colorful lights on the walls and gift bags hanging at the door that had been wrapped up waiting for the children of the night or the childlike people to take away.
Looking at all this, George, who was thinking about the teacher's affairs all the way, had a rare smile on his face.
Although Christmas in the United States is a little less grand than the Chinese New Year, this does not mean that this holiday can pass casually.
This is a festival that belongs to Westerners themselves, even if they are poor, they will go back to buy half a turkey and a glass of beer on this day to find a quiet place to savor all this.
Back at home, Smith had already left, Alice took Gigi and Qiao Tao to go shopping together, and Qiao Li was boiling soup in the kitchen.
"It smells so good!"
After saying hello to Jori, George went upstairs to wash up, came to the kitchen again, and walked directly to Alex's kitchen with the rich fragrance, looking at the little suckling pig that had been roasted golden in the stove, and the grease began to fall drop by drop into the flames and make a snorting sound.
"This is the new roast suckling pig that I have been researching for a long time, and it is absolutely unique in its flavor and mushrooms such as truffles, ,,,,,,ginger, and other flavors and mushrooms, and it will definitely surprise you. ”
Chef Alex looked at George smelling the smell of the kitchen and staring at the little suckling pig's eyes, proudly put down the work in his hand and walked to George's arrogant introduction.
"Alex, after you have wasted hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of materials, you have finally done something that I am very satisfied with, let me know that your waste is valuable, bake another one for me tomorrow, I invited the teacher to come to my home to spend Christmas together, I hope he will like it. ”
Looking at Alex standing beside him to show off, George picked up the props placed aside, picked up the gap between the little suckling pig that had been cut and taken out of the internal organs, and filled in various materials at this time, and gently sniffed the little suckling pig that was about to be put on the table at night when he looked at it.
Smelling the rich aroma, he took a small dish, ignored Alex's eyes that he wanted to stop, and gently cut off a small piece of golden crispy suckling pork that had been roasted in an inconspicuous place, cut it into several pieces, picked up a piece with a fork, gently put it in his mouth, and chewed it slowly.
After chewing, the aroma of the crispy suckling pork filled his mouth, so that George couldn't help but close his eyes and quietly enjoy the slightly different food from the suckling pig he had eaten before.
