Christmas is the most important holiday in the United States, especially for a group of children. I think Mimiko, Maria and Michelle will go home tomorrow at the latest. Read a book??w?
Li Han planned to make gifts early and give them to the little ones, wishing them a happy Christmas.
"Han, what gift are you planning to give Pandora?" Alta asked curiously.
Over lunch, Li Han and Alta talked about gifts. "I've thought about some gifts. I'll go to the market later to have a look."
"Don't you plan to give me a gift made by yourself, Han?" Alta, when she was a child, she received many Christmas gifts made by her father, which was very meaningful.
Alta has been collecting it to this day and will even collect it for a lifetime.
"certainly."
Li Han said with a smile, "I have already made a gift, and I plan to buy another gift and put it inside for Pandora and the baby."
"That must be an interesting gift."
"Can Han tell me secretly?" Natalie said with a smile, took Alta's juice and took a sip.
"Natalie?"
Li Han couldn't laugh or cry. "Didn't you say you couldn't come over for dinner?"
"I'm hungry."
Natalie said of course.
"Okay, I'm done eating. Alta, I'll go to town first. Natalie, you eat slowly."
Li Han said, getting up and leaving.
"How stingy."
Natalie, murmured.
Li Han almost fell down. He couldn't afford a fast food meal. Forget it, forget it.
I returned to the small building, changed my clothes, and drove a pickup truck to the town. "Yes, I've arrived."
After a while, a truck came over, carrying a pine tree. "Help me move it over."
"Okay, sir."
Three staff members moved the pine trees to Li Han's small truck. "Sir, please sign." "Thank you, this is yours." Li Han casually handed over a hundred dollars.
"Thank you so much. You are such a generous gentleman. I wish you a Merry Christmas."
"Thank you, and I also wish you a Merry Christmas."
Li Han smiled and said, one hundred dollars. As a tip, this is really a lot in a remote town in Montana.
"The trees are not bad."
Li Han checked and found that there was no damage and the branches were intact.
"It's time to buy some decorations."
Li Han said, in fact, Hank Farm has ordered decorations for Christmas, but Li Han does not want his home to be the same as the farm.
When he came to the market, Li Han chose some small stars, small balls, and some shiny decorations. "Hello, can you give me some gift boxes?"
"Oh, by the way, I want to buy more wrapping paper."
Li Han said.
"Wrapping paper?"
City staff were a little confused.
"That's right."
Li Han said with a smile.
Buy a gift box, a large box of wrapping paper, and go to the chocolate area. "Yes, this gift. Dudu and the baby will definitely like it."
"Miss, give me two boxes of chocolates."
"Sir, what flavor do you want?"
"Truffles."
Li Han said.
"Okay, sir. Please wait."
"No, no, no need to package it, just give it to me directly."
Li Han said.
The staff was a little confused and said no packaging, okay. Customer requirements come first.
"Thanks."
Li Han went shopping and bought some other gifts for Mimizi, Michelle, and Maria. The relative prices were higher than chocolates.
"Hope the kids like it."
Li Han gave Mimiko a set of tableware. Yes, last time I gave him a set of props, but this time he gave me a set of nice small tableware. Maria got a set of storybooks, and Michelle gave me a gift package of toys.
After the gift was purchased, Li Han contacted the cheongsam shop. "Yes, it can be delivered today, thank you."
"I don't know if Mom likes this gift."
Li Han said with a smile.
"Would you like to go to church?"
Li Han thought for a moment. "Miss, can you give me some more gift bags and help me? I want to wrap some gifts."
"Okay, sir."
Li Han buys a lot of things.
These gifts are intended to be given to the church. The priest sends Christmas gifts to the welfare home and some elderly people every year. This is the custom of the small town of Kemising. When the residents of the town give a gift to the church when they are young, the church will give it to you.
When I am old, I will give you a small gift every Christmas.
It was very traditional. Li Han drove to the church. "Father." Li Han put down the gift, sat on the edge, and listened quietly for a while.
"Little Han, why are you here?"
"Mom, let me bring you some gifts."
Li Han said. "Mom, do you want to go back now?"
"No, there are a few old people here who plan to learn Chinese." Zhang Xiuying said. "I want to give them lessons while I am free in the afternoon."
"Learn Chinese?"
Li Han smiled. "You are so old."
"You don't know this. You will learn as you live."
Zhang Xiuying said, "If there are really not many people like this in our country, when I came to the United States, I discovered that many people in their fifties, sixties, and even seventies love to learn new things.
,Real learning is not just to kill time.”
"To put it bluntly, when the elderly in our country retire, they either play cards, chess, or keep fit. They always feel that they have done everything in their lives. Why study when they are old? But here, people are not young, and they still want to
"I'm learning Chinese. It may not be useful. I heard that many old people are learning French and German and are talking about going to Europe to travel freely." Zhang Xiuying said with a smile. "These past few days, I have also been thinking about whether it is a good idea.
Learn to learn English.”
"In the past, I always thought that I would be too old to learn, but now I realize that I am still young."
Zhang Xiuying said with a smile.
"Haha, Mom, you are already young. Let me tell you, you should learn German and French. When dad retires, you can take dad to Europe to open his eyes."
Li Han said with a smile.
"That's right."
Zhang Xiuying said with a smile.
"How will Dudu's children eat at noon?"
Zhang Xiuying said, "Don't worry, the family is here."
"Mom, Dudu and Baobao are much busier than us these days. Dudu is working as a reporter, having lunch with the TV station, and having a big dinner together at Baobao's company."
Li Han said with a smile.
"This kid, Bao Baobao and Dudu are just kids. What a big dinner, a party." Zhang Xiuying said with a smile.
"Little Han, if you have nothing to do, go back as soon as possible. Aunt Xu and I will go back after a while."
Zhang Xiuying said.
"Okay, Mom, let me talk to the priest."
Li Han greeted the priest.
He drove back to the small farm and called someone to help him carry the pine trees in. "Yes, put it here, next to the fireplace, that's fine." Li Han adjusted it again and took a look.
"good."
"Decorate it."
Li Han, went down to the basement and took a small ladder and a lantern.
Open the small ladder, buy decorations and hang them up one by one. Hang up the lanterns one by one. Open it and see if it looks good. "What's the shortcoming? Yes, there is no decoration below."
The ladder was returned to the basement. A small fence and a small bedding were used to bring the small things up and surround the Christmas tree. Wrap it up and spread it. "Mimiko's gift, Maria's gift, and Michelle's gift."
As he said that, the phone rang. "Tom, yes. Send it over."
"Boss."
"How about the doll factory?"
Li Han took the cheongsam and asked casually.
"Three people have shipped the goods." Tom said.
"Find more people to follow closely."
Li Han said.
"yes."
Li Han nodded, took the cheongsam, returned to the small building, and continued tinkering with gifts. "Mom will definitely like it, for sure."
"Fortunately, Aunt Xu asked Sister Liu about the size."
Li Han smiled and said, Aunt Xu packed the cheongsam into a gift box and placed it next to the Christmas tree.
“pandora and baby gifts.”
Li Han carefully prepared the two little figures for a long time. The carved wooden box contained the little wooden figure. "Chocolate." Li Han packed it up and started packaging. One minute, two minutes, five minutes, ten minutes passed.
Li Han was still wrapping. After a while, Li Han went over and wiped his sweat. "I didn't expect that wrapping gifts would be so tiring."
"I hope these two villains understand what I'm thinking."
Li Han smiled and put the gifts away.
After a while, five little people, with little bears, jumped back. "Wow."
As soon as they entered the house, the five little people were attracted by the tall Christmas tree. "What a beautiful Christmas tree."
"Yeah, it's so big."
Maria and Michelle, Mimiko shouted.
"Um."
"dad."
"Back."
Li Han was preparing ingredients for the evening. "Are you tired?"
"Uh-huh."
"Dudu travels to many places a day."
The little man was beating his arms and legs, looking exhausted.
"Dad, Christmas tree."
"Haha, dad made it this afternoon, it looks beautiful."
"Yeah, so beautiful."
"By the way, Dad, we have prepared many gifts."
Li Han teases the villain.
"Gift."
Dudu ran over. "Wow, there are so many gifts."
"Haha, don't grab it."
Li Han said with a smile, "This belongs to Mimizi."
"This is Maria."
"This is Michelle's."
"Thank you, uncle."
The three little people were eager to open the gifts.
"We'll take it apart later."
Li Han said with a smile.
"Um."
"This is toot."
"This is a bag."
Li Han saw the two little people pouting and saying with a smile.
Sure enough, they got the gift, and the two little people were very happy.
"Don't rush to open it, wait until Christmas Day to open it."
Li Han said with a smile.
This is a gift that Li Han went to great lengths to wrap.
"Hey, a gift."
Natalie and Alta walked in and saw several little people holding boxes in their hands.
"Is this mine?"
Saying that, Natalie was about to open it.
"No."
Li Han said.
"Natalie, your gift hasn't arrived yet."
"Not here?"
Natalie looked suspicious. "Are you not planning to give me a gift? You are really a stingy person."
"Natalie."
Alta smiled helplessly.
"This time I really give you a gift."
Li Han said with a smile.
"real?"
Natalie looked unconvinced.
"This is the list."
Li Han said with a smile, "Just accept the gift."
"Really?"
"Of course."
Li Han said with a smile.
"Alta, I have prepared a gift for you. It is a Chinese bride's wedding clay sculpture set. I hope you like it." Li Han said with a smile.
"The bride is getting married with a clay sculpture, really. Thank you so much, Han." Alta thanked her loudly.
"You're welcome."
Li Han said with a smile, "I don't want to be the stingy person someone said."
"Yeah?"
"Han, what gifts have you prepared for us?"
Lingna and Jennifer walked in with a smile.
"Ah." Li Han paused. (To be continued.)
