When he left the official merchandise store, Lu Li and his party had already taken on a new look, and they collectively changed into the purple and gold jerseys of the Lakers, even Lu Li was no exception. Updates are fast and ad-free.

In fact, Lu Li's interest in basketball is limited, and even when he watches the game, he is also a fan of the New York Clippers - the former roommate who shared the house is biased. In the U.S., fans are distinctly regional.

Every fan is a supporter of a team in their area, starting with their great-great-great-grandfather and passed down from generation to generation, and many children are already educated by fathers when they are born, taking them to watch games, taking them to the home stadium to support the game, and learning about the history of the team and the stars......

It's like a European football league, fans of Manchester United, Real Madrid, and Barcelona registered their children as members of the team when they were born, and queued up to buy season tickets, and those queues to buy season tickets for the team can be queued up for more than ten or twenty years later.

The same is true for basketball, ice hockey, baseball, and football teams in the United States. Because of this, the fans are divided by region, and the loyalty is unquestionable, even insane. Lu Li has lived in New York for four years, and it is only natural that the teams he supports have also received the influence of this culture, with football teams liking the New York Giants, and Aiwu and Udi also favoring Peyton Manning, the brother of Giants' leading quarterback Eli Manning.

Now, suddenly Lu Li is going to wear a Los Angeles Lakers jersey? It's a strange feeling. However, with the encouragement and supervision of his grandmother, Lu Li still bought a fan and wore Kobe Bryant's number 24 fan. Even the two little ones put on their jerseys on top of their own.

Chen Taotao and Song Jiahui looked at the children's version of the jersey on their bodies, jumping and spinning excitedly, as if they had just changed into a princess dress.

"Oh, Jesus Christ!" came a scream of excitement, "Please take a picture with me!"

Lu Li saw several girls screaming and rushing over, quickly surrounding them. Immediately, Lu Li found that it was not him who they were surrounding, but his grandmother.

An old lady with an Asian face wearing a pale teal coat and a Lakers purple and gold jersey, which is not very common at Staples Arena. This made Yuan Qingzhu immediately become the focus of everyone's attention, and after several girls screamed, the other fans next to him also noticed that the crowd gathered around seemed to be increasing.

Yuan Qingzhu and Song Kongming couldn't understand these English, but when they saw a group of crazy and enthusiastic faces rushing over, they immediately froze in place. Chen Taotao and Song Jiahui, two children, ran in front, looking at such a lively scene, they didn't know whether to advance or retreat for a while.

Lu Li protected Yuan Qingzhu in front of him in time, trying to stop everyone, but there was a kind of ridiculous joy in such a scene, Lu Li didn't have time to speak, and laughed directly, "Calm down, everyone calm down." ”

"Lu Li, what's wrong with them, did we do something wrong?" Song Kongming asked anxiously, but Yuan Qingzhu had still seen countless winds and waves, and patted Song Kongming on the shoulder, "Leave it to Lu Li to deal with, don't worry." ”

"Grandma, they want to take a picture with you. Lu Li explained, Song Kongming was stunned, Yuan Qingzhu was also stunned, obviously did not understand the meaning of Lu Li's words, Lu Li had to explain again, "They are all loyal fans of the Lakers, probably because they saw that you were also wearing a jersey, so they wanted to take pictures with you." ”

Yuan Qingzhu was stunned, and then laughed, the more he thought about it, the funnier it became, covering his mouth, maintaining the image of a lady, "Take pictures with me? What do I have to take pictures? I'm not a celebrity." ”

Lu Li knew about his grandmother, and asked hehehe, "Then do you want to? If you don't want to, I will refuse them, and they will leave." Without waiting for his grandmother to answer, Lu Li continued, "However, they will definitely be very disappointed." Perhaps, we can also take some photos as a souvenir. ”

Yuan Qingzhu laughed and did not speak. There was no affirmation, but there was no refusal, Lu Li knew that in her grandmother's heart, she was willing.

So, Lu Li raised his head and said to those enthusiastic fans, "Everyone, everyone, this is my grandmother, she doesn't know English, she just came to travel." She is more than happy to take pictures with you. ”

"Your grandmother is so cute!" a girl screamed, and while she was talking, Chen Taotao and Song Jiahui ran over, stood beside Lu Li, raised their heads and looked up at the group of blonde and blue-eyed cheerleading girls in front of them, wanting to get closer, but they didn't know how to speak. When the girls saw it, they raised their voices and asked, "Is this also your family?"

"Yes. Lu Li nodded and gave an affirmative reply, and then heard the little girls screaming excitedly, "It's so cute, it's really cute!"

Next is the photo time, Yuan Qingzhu and the two little guys are like the mascots of the Los Angeles Lakers tonight, and more and more fans ran over and took pictures with them. Even Song Kongming was enjoying it, completely immersed in the fans, and was very happy.

Yuan Qingzhu shouted loudly, "Lu Li, how do you say 'thank you' in English?" Looking at so many enthusiastic fans, Yuan Qingzhu wanted to try to communicate, but he really couldn't speak a word of English. The scaly claws that I learned when I was a child have long since been forgotten.

Lu Li stood outside the crowd and looked at Song Kongming who was in a hurry - he was also in a mess at this time, and he couldn't even remember how to say "thank you". In the end, Chen Taotao, who was still standing next to him, shouted loudly, "Thank you." "On behalf of everyone, I expressed my gratitude, and occasionally I could exchange one or two questions with the fans who came to shoot.

Looking at Yuan Qingzhu in the crowd, her expression was still a little uncomfortable, and her smile was a little jerky, not to mention the conversation, but the sparkling light in her eyes could be seen that she was in a very happy mood at the moment. She's enjoying an exotic moment like this in her hometown, something you wouldn't find in her hometown.

Such a grandmother is a stranger.

Not the busy figure in the kitchen, not the craftsman who sat on the small bench embroidering, not the grandmother who got up at five o'clock in the morning to prepare breakfast for the family, not the lonely woman who sat in the yard in a daze on a summer night, not the old man with a wrinkled face and a rickety body, not the rural woman who had been living in a poor country all her life.

She was smiling, smiling, as if time had begun to go backwards, and the young and flamboyant light had returned to her.

Involuntarily, Lu Li took out his mobile phone and recorded the most real and moving scene. It reminded him of himself riding chestnuts on the pasture, and he liked himself like that, and he liked his grandmother like that. In addition to the name of "grandmother", in addition to the name of "father and mother", they are also vivid people, with their own joys, sorrows, and dreams.

Originally, Lu Li thought that Song Kongming was definitely the most excited person tonight, the dream game, the dream Lakers, and the dream live close contact realized all the dreams of a loyal fan. But in fact, the happiest person is Yuan Qingzhu.

After walking out of the house, in a strange country, Yuan Qingzhu began to enjoy his own time for the first time in his life.

Surrounded by fans, it took them nearly forty minutes to get there, just five minutes away. There was more than enough time now, and in order to catch the game, they had to settle dinner quickly. Not to mention whether it is appropriate to watch the game hungry, but let Yuan Qingzhu go hungry, this is absolutely not good.

At dinner time, Lu Li took everyone to eat the classic American ball night dishes: pizza, burgers and fries.

This is the first time Yuan Qingzhu has eaten a hamburger in his life. Lu Li carefully tore open the outer package, and then handed it to his grandmother, watching his grandmother open her mouth wide and bite hard, but the lettuce and mayonnaise fell off both hands, Lu Li hurriedly handed over the napkin, but saw that her grandmother frowned, and the wrinkles on her whole face wrinkled, "Sour, why is it so sour?"

Lu Li helped his grandmother wipe the dipping sauce on her hands and the corners of her mouth, and explained kindly, "That's pickled cucumbers, and Americans like to accompany them a little bit when they eat anything." If you don't like it, I can take it off. ”

Yuan Qingzhu waved his hand, "No, no." I like to eat sour, can you give me a little more?" Lu Li didn't expect this answer.

Lu Li put down the napkin, raised his hand and summoned the waiter, asking for a plate of pickled cucumbers. Looking at his grandmother who was eating a hamburger, Lu Li couldn't help but raise his mobile phone, press the shutter, and record the moment of his grandmother. Yuan Qingzhu couldn't cry or laugh, he still had a mouthful of burgers in his mouth, and he wanted to get angry, but it was not very convenient, so he could only shout, "Lu Li!"

Lu Li hurriedly said, comforting his grandmother, "Just record a certain moment, you see, I also shoot Tao Tao and Xiaohui!" In order to hide his movements, Lu Li turned his head and looked at the two little guys, "Come, look at the camera! Smile, hurry, smile!"

After taking pictures, when he turned around, he could see Yuan Qingzhu's helpless expression, and he easily recognized Lu Li's intentions, which made Lu Li laugh dryly twice, put his mobile phone in his pocket, and said in a loud voice, "Eat, hurry up!" and then picked up his pizza and took a big bite.

After the meal, Lu Li and his party marched in the direction of the stadium, following the crowd of fans, and then Lu Li also took them to buy popcorn, sausages and coke. Yuan Qingzhu kept nagging, what just finished dinner, don't eat snacks, what children eat snacks are not good for their health, what watching the game is not suitable for snacks, but they didn't stop Lu Li, Chen Taotao and Song Jiahui were satisfied with their hot dogs and walked into the court.

Song Kongming was directly stunned, and walked into the hall of his dreams, he couldn't believe his eyes, and he walked cautiously, like a space walk.
