Lisko’s American Life

Chapter 67: Swan Castle

Liske got up early to get ready, and dressed in formal attire. His mentor, Bermer, was a staid Englishman who got up very early every day when he got old.

Bermer is still working part-time as an academician of the Department of Literature of Yale University, and he will give speeches to freshmen from time to time. He has a high status in the United States, and the students he brings out stand in various literary positions in the United States, such as well-known newspapers and publishing houses. , and the president of the American Literary Association, it can be said that the strength of Lisko’s department is the highest in the American literary world.

Lisko called the hotel's car and rushed out of New York City, where Bermer bought a manor and settled down with his wife Mary.

This time the hotel stayed at the Hilton. Speaking of Hilton, the two sisters are the most famous. Their self-hype method also indirectly increased the reputation of the family hotel. This approach is exactly the same as Wang Moumou, the richest man in Rabbit Country. The Daishan sisters and the Olsen sisters in the film and television industry are also masters of this method.

The car soon arrived at the manor, which was built in imitation of the Adair manor in Ireland, and was called "Swan Castle" by Berman's wife Mary.

This manor has a good reputation in the American literature circle. All Lisko’s brothers spent the entire study time here before leaving the teacher. They will not move out until they find a job or have better development. At present, all the well-known American 70% of the writers have come here to participate in the party, so among many groups of writers who have not made a fortune, this place is really a holy place for literature.

Lisko looked at the castle with ups and downs in front of him, and several well-proportioned gardens, and he was deeply moved. In his memory, he also lived here for three years during his studies. The tutor Bermer would not treat the students What do you think of my family? Whether poor or rich, he treats each other the same. Every day, many brothers and sisters finish breakfast here, and go to the huge library collected by the tutor to read books and discuss literature. In the evening, there is a poetry meeting salon, where everyone is together Drinking freely, at this time, the instructor will hold a wine glass and watch them wanton and wanton, and the teacher's wife, Mary, will bring them the cookies she just made, and clean up the wine glass that was knocked over by them.

"It's really beautiful."

Lisco Miller narrowed his eyes, straightened his clothes, and walked into the manor.

"Hey, Kenny." The black Kenny is a painter of Swan Castle, and his ancestors also did this.

"Master Scott?" Kenny put down the scissors in surprise, and came up to hug Lisco. He has lived here for three years, and everyone here is very familiar with Lisco.

There is no obvious hierarchy in the mentor's manor. Even painters, chefs, housekeepers, and guards can greet them casually. This is also the humanity and thought that Berman has always advocated.

"Did Jayben go out to play? Why didn't you notify him in advance?" Kenny first complained, and then dragged Lisko into the manor.

Jayben is the guard of the castle. In fact, it is a guard, and it is just a random position, because the New York Police Department built a guard booth 100 meters outside the manor, and a police officer is stationed in it all year round. The guards are all the same.

"Hey, Pole, look who's here?" Kenny walked into the castle hall and shouted at the old man with the white beard in an old-fashioned robe.

"Hey, Master Scott," Ball stepped forward to hug.

Bohr is the butler of the castle, and his main responsibility is to arrange the work and purchases of all the staff in the castle.

"You haven't been here for a long time. Mrs. Mary always misses you." Pole looked at the upright Lisko with emotion. Slow so handsome.

"I'm passing by New York this time to see you." Lisko knew he was wrong, and quickly changed the subject.

"By the way, where's the tutor? I didn't tell you in advance this time, I just came over after seeing the company."

"Sir went to school, and he will give a speech today, but it seems that the time is almost back, Madam is making desserts in the kitchen." Bohr said truthfully according to Berman's itinerary.

Lisko looked around, and everything was the same as when he left, as if he just left yesterday and came back the next day.

Lisko bid farewell to Pohl, and confessed that he would live here today, and Pole excitedly went to tidy up Lisko's former house.

Lisko is the youngest disciple of Bermer, so he has always been favored. Whether it is the mentor or all the brothers and sisters, he is very caring for him. Since Li Sike became a teacher, this huge castle has quieted down. The matter is too high, and I don’t want to work too hard, so I don’t accept students anymore. My daily task is to give lectures from time to time. This is all the brothers who are worried that the tutor who is idle all of a sudden will feel bored, so I forcefully order it. There is a special car to pick up and drop off, so Bermer enjoys it comfortably.

Because of his lofty status in the literary world, Bermer was awarded a "lifetime nobleman" by the Queen of England. This title is equivalent to a baron, but it cannot be inherited. It is generally awarded to people who have made outstanding contributions, so it is honored in the manor and in society. He is jazz.

Lisko didn't stop, he passed the luxuriously decorated living room, passed by the library he wanted to revisit, and walked into the kitchen.

"Mary." Lisko looked at Mary who was quietly making desserts at the door. Mary had always cared for him abnormally, probably because Lisko was the same age as her youngest son who died of illness.

"Sko?" Mary put down the flour she was still kneading, took off her apron and handed it to the maid beside her, and walked quickly to Lisko.

"My Sko is really getting more and more handsome." Mary hugged Lisko directly, covered Lisko's face with flour-stained hands, and kissed his forehead continuously.

"Okay Mary," Lisko stopped her and stood up straight to match her bent legs. He always teases him, and likes to see Lisko's flushed little face after being teased, with a serious and aggrieved expression, and he succeeds many times.

"You have succeeded," Lisko looked at her, with palm prints printed on white flour on his face.

Mary and Lisko looked at each other for a while, and they both smiled, as if they were back in the past, Mary stepped forward and hugged him seriously,

"Welcome home, Scott."

Mary also often heard Bermer boasting that Liske was young and promising in the study, and that the new book had deep thoughts, and that this time he would definitely win the Nobel Prize. Whether you are doing well, whether you are happy, whether your life is going well, in the eyes of all the brothers, Mary can be regarded as their mother.
