Lisko’s American Life

After visiting the Jinshanling Great Wall, Meghan's impression of China has changed completely. From her original impression of the backward red horror, she has transformed into the impression of a great country with rich heritage, history, long culture and beautiful scenery.

Lisko also took her to watch the flag raising in the morning. When the national anthem was played, Lisko burst into tears. Meghan, who was watching the excitement, did not understand why he, a foreigner, was so moved.

Their next journey started to Zhangjiajie.

Zhangjiajie Tianzi is adjacent to Suoxiyu in the east, Zhangjiajie in the south, and SZ County in the north. It is one of the four major scenic spots in WLY District. Here Lisko and Megan experienced the natural beauty of the pristine scenery. Its landscapes and scenic spots are made in heaven and there are no traces of artificial carving, which is breathtaking. On the day they traveled, they happened to encounter the spectacle of clouds and mists. The entire Tianzi Mountain was shrouded in clouds and mists, looming and looming, like a fairyland on earth.

The third stop went to Yuanyang Terraced Fields in the south of Ailao Mountain in YY County, YN Province. This is a masterpiece left by the Hani people from generation to generation. Majestic, stretches across the entire south bank of the Red River. According to local conditions, the local people reclaimed large fields with gentle slopes and small fields with steep slopes. Therefore, the large terraced fields are several acres, and the small ones are only as large as a dustpan. The terraced fields are picturesque throughout the year and their colors change. Meghan commented after seeing the beauty, "It's like a palette that has been knocked over by God".

The fourth stop went to Zhangye Danxia. The landforms here developed in the Tertiary Period of the Pre-Jurassic about 2 million years ago. Within a radius of dozens of square kilometers, red, yellow, orange, green, white and other bright color blocks or lines can be seen everywhere, decorating the mountains and ravines into gorgeous and dazzling pictures. The magnificent painting, like a fairy tale world.

Afterwards, I went to the Jade Pool in the World, Aba Huanglong in Sichuan, the Detian Waterfall in Guangxi, the first in Asia, the Qiandao Lake in Zhejiang Province, the lake with the most islands in the world, and the Pearl Beach Waterfall in Jiuzhaigou with the most beautiful water, the strongest water potential and the loudest water among all the rapids, with a deep soul. There is a never-disappearing pure land of Seda Larung Gar, Wuming Buddhist Academy, and the Maijishan Grottoes with exquisite carving skills.

Although he was reluctant to part with it, a month passed in a hurry. Lisko gave up his desire to return to the motherland and boarded the plane with a satisfied Meghan, saying goodbye to this charming and beautiful China.

They came in a hurry, but the return journey slowed down. The two of them walked and played, and it took twice as long to reach the ranch.

Pushing away the long-lost home and smelling the familiar smell and sunshine, Lisko also calmed down.

Putting aside some unnecessary sadness, Lisko and Megan started cleaning the dusty home.

Mopping the floor, washing the dishes, and tidying up everything inside and out with a vacuum cleaner, it's already night after all these things are done.

Meghan fry the steak, and they both finished their meal early and rested.

A month away from home, Lisko went to inspect the ranch after breakfast in the morning. Most of the ground was white. The cold wave had a wide range the other day, covering almost half of the United States.

The rooster and the ranch staff were clearing the snow in the heat of the day.

"Li," Rooster was not surprised to see him, because he picked up the plane last night.

"Morning, I brought some special products from China, you can go and get them at noon." Lisko greeted the cowboys.

Negro Weiss drove a snowplow to clear the road in the middle of the ranch, while others flushed the cleared road with water hoses, sprinkled with brown rock salt to prevent freezing.

Ice forms when the temperature of water reaches 0 degrees Celsius, and so does ice on roads. Rock salt works by lowering the freezing point of water. When salt is added, the freezing point of water decreases, so salt makes it harder to freeze water. A 10% salt solution freezes at minus 6 degrees Celsius, and a 20% salt solution freezes at minus 16 degrees Celsius.

So sprinkling salt can effectively prevent the cleaned road from freezing again.

Lisko rolled up his sleeves and began to help.

"How is the pasture stored in the pasture? Is there enough?" Lisko asked the rooster next to him.

"It has been stored very early, this pasture can be used for next summer. Li, can I buy some grass? You know, Bo's harvest is not good this year. I don't have enough storage, so I want to buy some and send it to Bo's ranch." The rooster discussed with Lisko seriously.

"No, don't be like this, rooster, you don't have to tell me these things. You are the head of the ranch. Our ranch is enough and there is more than enough. It doesn't matter if you give a little to Bo. How is Bo's body now?" Lisko was concerned about it. asked about Bo's injury.

"He is old, and the doctor said that his body is very fragile. Last time we took him to the hospital for examination, a tumor grew in his brain, but fortunately it was benign. I have made an appointment with the doctor for the operation next week. I hope he can have a smooth operation. "The rooster's expression was a little gloomy. To him, he had been teaching his father to fall ill since he was a child, and it felt as if his support had fallen down.

"I'll go see him in the afternoon~www.readwn.com~ Why don't you stay in the hospital waiting for the surgery?" Lisko asked, Bo has always been a neighbor of his family. Taking care of him, he is like his own uncle.

"You know Bo's character, he won't listen to our advice, but Colt and I have both gone home recently, and we are also helping with things in the ranch, so he is much more relaxed now."

Bo is a stubborn old cowboy. They are hardworking and upright, but they also have a rough and stubborn side. No one can dissuade him when he makes up his mind.

"Is the money enough?" Lisko knew that these people never thought about tomorrow, and the money in their hands would be spent quickly.

"The salary you gave me is enough. I saved a sum of money to buy a good car, so I have enough money in my hand."

Lisko patted the rooster on the shoulder, and Lisko felt his sadness.

After lunch, Lisko distributed Chinese knots, fans, and face masks to the cowboys, and went to the blogger's ranch with a worried expression.

"Bo," Lisko shouted from the door. He has always called Bo's name since he was a child. This is very common in the United States. It is normal for grandchildren or sons to call their father and grandfather's names directly. They don't care. Some people still like these things.

Bo came out of the room and looked much older than the last time he saw him. Lisko realized at this time that the omnipotent uncle next door in his childhood was really old.

Holding his waist, he opened the door for Lisko.

"I went to China for a trip, and when I came back, I heard that you were feeling a little sick. Are you feeling better recently?" Lisko hurriedly went over to hold his arm and took him back to the room.
