Lisko’s American Life

227. Back to the Ranch (Thanks to Lao Niu No. 88 for the reward again)

"You don't have to, we'll just stay in a hotel."

After hearing Lisko's words, the old couple looked at each other, and Zhang You, who was still the head of the family, spoke.

"It's okay, Uncle. My house is relatively big, so you don't have to worry about any inconvenience, and my house is in the country, the air is better, and staying in a hotel will add another expense, which is completely unnecessary, what do you think?"

Lisko had already prepared the draft. He knew that people of Zhang You's age had all come from poverty, so the primary tenet of life was frugality. With this reason, it was absolutely unassailable.

Zhang Li also persuaded, mainly because the public security in the United States is really worrying. Instead of letting her parents live in a cheap hotel that is not so safe, she still thinks it is better to accept Lisko's kindness. After all, the two are already living together. I made a promise in my heart for life.

"Mom and Dad, really, the United States is not that safe. My apartment is high-end, and there is no problem at ordinary times, but the hotel is not necessarily the case. You don't know the customs here. If you go out at night, you may be robbed."

She was afraid that her parents would not like it, so she deliberately exaggerated the facts. In fact, most hotels in the United States are responsible for the safety of guests, otherwise how would they gain a foothold.

Li Feng listened to what his daughter said was so serious, and his attitude was not so firm. Anyway, the mother-in-law looked at her son-in-law, and the more she watched, the more she liked her. From the beginning to now, she has been quietly observing Lisko, and she is generally very satisfied. , Careful, no one can say that he is not handsome, and he is also very tall.

Zhang You was also in a bit of a dilemma at this time. He frowned and thought carefully. The main reason was that he couldn't lose face. After all, he was not that familiar with Lisko.

"Really, uncle, there is no trouble. Why don't you go and have a look first? Is it to your liking? If not, I'll find you a hotel."

Li Ke looked at Zhang You's with his own eyes sincerely, and his eyes were full of sincerity.

Zhang You couldn't say no.

"Okay then, I'll trouble you. Little,,,,"

"Just call me Xiao Li."

Li Ke connected to answer the call, then fastened his seat belt, ordered everyone to fasten it, and started the car's engine.

The car started to move slowly, left the airport, and headed for Garrison.

"Is this an urban area? It doesn't look that developed."

Li Feng stared out of the window curiously, looking at the surrounding buildings.

"Auntie, this is the downtown area of ​​Denver, but Denver is famous for its tourist attractions and culture, so compared with urban areas in other states, there are not so many high-rise buildings."

While Lisko was driving, he was also answering Li Feng's questions.

In this way, Li Feng understands that there are also many cities in China that focus on cultural tourism, and high-rise buildings will destroy the layout of the entire city.

"Xiao Li, what is your main job now?"

Compared with the scenery, Zhang You is more interested in Lisko's basic situation.

"Uncle, I am a writer, and the rest of the time I mainly run a ranch, just like a farm in China. My ranch produces beef cattle and vegetables, which are supplied to restaurants and supermarkets."

"Oh! It's a land parcel."

Zhang You nodded understandingly.

"Father," Zhang Li couldn't laugh or cry, "In the United States, the land is freehold, and the family does not lease the land. The annual income of ranchers is still several million dollars."

"so much."

Zhang You was a little tongue-tied, but he was still surprised when he heard about the freehold property rights of the land.

"It means, after you buy it, this land is yours? Can it be passed on to your descendants?"

"Yes, that's right, uncle."

"That's good, the land is a hard thing."

Zhang You felt a little emotional, as if it was imprinted in his bones, every Chinese has a deep plot of the land, maybe we are all farmers in our bones, and there are some reasons for the increasing housing prices in China.

The car has already driven out of downtown Denver, and both sides of the road are full of lavender.

"It's so beautiful here."

Although Li Feng is getting older, her beauty-loving nature remains unchanged. She opened the window next to her, took out the camera she brought along, and took pictures of the sea of ​​flowers swaying in the wind.

"We must open the eyes of Lao Zhang and the others when we go back. This is so beautiful."

Li Feng looked at the beautiful scenery he had photographed and muttered.

The community they live in has a special center for the elderly. The Lao Zhang Li Feng talks about is the sisters she met in the elderly center. They often chat and play mahjong together, and they have a good relationship.

"Xiao Li, there is a car behind us, and there are two people in it, who have been following us from the airport."

Suddenly, Zhang You looked serious. Although he was old and had been out of the army for many years, he still had the keen observation skills he cultivated when he was a scout. Of course, this had nothing to do with the lack of driving on American roads.

Hearing what Zhang You said, Li Feng also became nervous, and she grabbed her daughter's hand tightly.

"Ah?" Lisko was still concentrating on the road ahead, and when he heard the reminder, his first reaction was a little nervous, and he was relieved when he saw the license plate number behind him from the rearview mirror.

"Uncle, don't worry, those are my bodyguards. They don't trust me to go out alone, so they follow us all the time. They are not bad people."

Lisko explained.

Zhang Li also looked back and relaxed when he saw the familiar black bulletproof commercial vehicle.

"Charles and the others? Dad, I know that car."

"That's it, let me say, why did you follow us all the time? It turned out to be a false alarm."

Zhang You's tense body relaxed, and he touched his nose in embarrassment.

"It's okay, but uncle is very powerful, you can observe this."

Lisko just flattered him to ease the atmosphere.

"Of course, I'm not bragging. When I was a soldier, I often competed with the top ones in terms of skills. If my family hadn't forced me to leave the army, I would have been a school-level student anyway."

Zhang You's somewhat proud tone aroused Lisko's support. In contrast, his perception of Lisko was much better.

The car continued driving and soon entered the small town of Garrison.

"This is the town? It looks very laid-back here."

Zhang You looked at the many houses in front of him and looked around curiously.

"Yes, we're in town, and we'll be at the ranch in five minutes."

Lisko responded while saying hello to familiar people passing by.

"You are very popular,"

"My family has lived here for many years, so everyone knows each other."

When the car arrived in front of the ranch, a huge Chinese signboard appeared above the head.

Zhang You was full of intimacy when he saw the Chinese that he rarely saw along the way.

"Here we come. Uncle."

Lisko stepped on the brakes, turned around and smiled.
