IntermediateSerializer XNA 4. How do I deserialize List of lists or List of dictionaries?

Question

How do I deserialize List of lists or List of dictionaries? Here is C# code:

public enum Values : byte
{
    One,
    Two,
    Three,
    Four
}
public class Something
{
    public int Some_int { get; set; }
}
public class Test
{
    public List<List<Something>> ListOfSomethingLists { get; set; }
    public List<Dictionary<Values, Something>> ListOfSomethingDictionaries { get; set; }
}

And here is XML which doesn't work cuz I don't know how to deserialize it:

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<XnaContent>
  <Asset Type="Test">
    <ListOfSomethingLists>
      <Item>
        <Item>
           1
        </Item>
        <Item>
           2
        </Item>
      </Item>
      <Item>
        <Item>
           3
        </Item>
        <Item>
           4
        </Item>
      </Item>
    </ListOfSomethingLists>
    <ListOfSomethingDictionaries>
      <Item>
        <Item>
          <Key>One</Key>
          <Value>1</Value>
        </Item>
        <Item>
          <Key>Two</Key>
          <Value>2</Value>
        </Item>
      </Item>
      <Item>
        <Item>
          <Key>Three</Key>
          <Value>3</Value>
        </Item>
        <Item>
          <Key>Four</Key>
          <Value>4</Value>
        </Item>
      </Item>
    </ListOfSomethingDictionaries>
  </Asset>
</XnaContent>

I actually didn't test this code but I have almost the same in my game. And still confused how to deserialize list of lists and list of dictionaries. Thanks in advance.

What did you already try yourself. And did you ever deserialize before? — MCollard, Feb 12 '14 at 13:29
Yes, of course. I have so much content serialization in my game like loading game levels, characters, objects etc. — Wallstrider, Feb 12 '14 at 13:34
