Rebirth 79: I opened a bank in the United States

Chapter 1009 An Invitation to a Family Gathering

The Independence Day holiday can also be called the American Carnival.

Compared with past Chinese National Days, the American Independence Day holiday tends to be pretty wild.There are floats parading on the streets, almost in every block!

In wealthy communities, some [-], [-] and [-]th-tier singers may be invited to sing on the stage of floats transformed from trucks. In communities with little money, residents often go up there to sing and dance!
Small children run around in the streets, and the lines between motorized and non-motorized lanes can also be blurred during the day.Many parade teams will go directly to the road, follow the floats, stroll all the way, and cheer all the way
Occasionally, when I see some merchants doing activities on the side of the road, I will happily go in and spend a wave, and then I will return to the parade and continue to be restless!

"It happens every year on this day, and on this day, you will see almost all Americans who like to join in the fun will appear on the street."

Holding Xiao Yinxin's hand, they walked side by side on the street.

Speaking of which, it was the first time for Carter to participate in the Independence Day parade, and he himself is slowly experiencing this festive atmosphere.But, it's hard to empathize.
Because, in the past, Carter only felt noisy today.Every year on this day, there is no stop from morning to night. Around six o'clock in the evening, slightly larger cities will also arrange fireworks.

That thing is also quite noisy!

"What about people who don't like to join in the fun? Just like you, didn't you say that you never participated in parades before?"

"Family dinners are the most frequent! As far as I know, it is often not a family, but several families. For example, this time next year, you can invite your little friends to come to our house for a gathering! We are in the garden Set up a barbecue grill on the lawn, and everyone can chat and brag while eating barbecue!"

"Like camping?! Why not this year?"

Carter saw Li Yinxin's eyes light up.

Even with Samsung's deep pockets, Carter couldn't have imagined Lee Jae-yong and Lee Boo-jin sitting on a carpet drinking beer or huddling together in front of a grill to grill meat in that kind of family anyway.

Relatively speaking, most families in the East Asian cultural circle are more depressed than those in the United States.At least, now, strict education is the mainstream.It is rare to hear the talk of being brothers with your children.

Faced with this novel experience, how can a little girl not be hooked? !

"Stupid! Have you invited them this year? You have only known each other for a short time, and we are not prepared at all! At that time, I also just went to work, so I didn't bother to tell you that I can invite everyone to my house today. Well, No! It should be said that as long as you want to invite your little friends to come and play, I welcome you at any time, but if you invite them today, the meaning may be different, and the invitation today will be more formal!"

A brain crash hit Li Yinxin's head. Since living with this little girl, Carter's childish behavior has become more and more.But Carter does not think this is a bad thing.

The dress has already been sent home, and the rest of the time is for the two of them to visit.From time to time, with the big flow, he would shake the Stars and Stripes in his hand, and Carter, who was holding Xiao Yinxin, would take her into the roadside shops from time to time to buy some souvenirs and other small odds and ends, or snacks Snacks or something.

This day is also the carnival day of the street stall party. Many families do not even aim to make money. They set up small stalls in front of their homes and on the side of the street, and greet passers-by with a smile to taste their own food.

In a small Maryland town close to DC, it doesn't have the tight rhythm of DC, but the proximity to DC also brings it a pretty good development.With a guaranteed per capita income and less tense atmosphere, life here naturally looks like paradise.as if everyone is full of enthusiasm
"I know! Then, tell me, wouldn't it be rude if I refused?"

Rubbing the hair messed up by Carter, Li Yinxin seemed to think of something, her eyes were a little wandering.

"It seems that some friends have already been conquered by your charm! Let me guess who it is? Klein? Did she invite you to her house as a guest?"

"And Freya! She invited me too! But Klein and I are in the same class, so we will be more familiar, but they are together! They agreed to go to Klein's house as a guest. I also wanted to I agreed, but when you said there would be a concert tonight, I refused!"

"It seems that I have affected you playing with your friends, let me check the time."

Carter raised his wrist and looked at his watch.It's only less than eleven o'clock in the morning, and there is still plenty of time before the evening concert.Even counting going home to change the dress, plus about an hour's drive, if little Yin Xin's expectations are met now, the little girl can play together for at least six or seven hours!
"There is plenty of time, do you want to go? I think you are very excited. If we have the address of Klein's house, let's go there now!"

"Isn't that good? After all, I've already rejected her. They shouldn't be ready for me to pass!"

Even though she is still young, Carter has already discovered that little Yin Xin has already learned to speak irony without a teacher.

Mingming's eyes are bright, but his mouth is rejecting.

"We can bring our own ingredients and some gifts! This way it won't be too troublesome. After all, they will be very happy if they see you! Let's go back to the car and get the gifts!"

"Okay, just right, the invitation letter Klein gave me is still in my schoolbag. I remember it has the address on it"

"And the invitation letter? Wow, you little brats, how did you make it so formal?!"

"You're just a brat, I'm already in middle school!!"

Back home noisily all the way, Carter went to the kitchen to search for ingredients, while Li Yinxin went to the storage room to pick out gifts.Living here is for the convenience of working in Washington. Naturally, all kinds of gifts for dealing with colleagues in the new unit are also piled up in a whole storage room.

The gifts that my colleagues have not finished giving can now be used for visiting classmates' homes.No matter which gift is prepared for the senior staff of the White House, it may be an exaggeration to say that it is worth a lot, but it is inevitable that it will appear full of heart.

And Carter was also in the kitchen, touched things like beef and steak, packed them, and walked to the living room.

"Come on, let's take a look at the invitation letter Klein gave you. I think this is the first official invitation letter you have received in your life?! Afterwards, maybe we can buy a photo frame and give it Keep it well."

Li Yinxin, who is only 12 years old now, is still a kid, let alone before.Even if she has participated in some banquets, it is impossible for her to be the guest of honor.

For her, this is a memorable event.

The little girl nodded solemnly, and then took out an invitation letter written on pink letter paper from her schoolbag.

The time and place are clearly written, and what Carter even laughed secretly is that these little girls are still pretending to be mature in their words, why sincerely and sincerely invite Li Yinxin and her family to participate in everyone's family gathering Barabara
