After all the arrangements were made, Liu Qianqian went upstairs to send the documents to Du Xiao, just now she just wanted to see Du Xiao, don't bother him, and suddenly forgot that she still had the documents that Hua Qiaoran asked her to bring to Du Xiao.

She knocked on the door, heard voices inside, and pushed the door in.

Du Xiao smiled when he saw her: "Why didn't you knock on the door when you came in just now?"

Liu Qianqian pouted: "You saw it, then don't call me." ”

"I see your light hand, I guess you don't want to disturb me," Du Xiao said, "I didn't expect it to come up again, what's wrong?"

"This," Liu Qianqian handed the document bag to Du Xiao, "Sister Hua asked me to bring it to you." ”

Du Xiao took it and trembled: "It doesn't feel like a document." ”

He opened the file bag directly in front of Liu Qianqian, and poured out a card and something like an invitation from it.

Du Xiao picked it up and took a look, and the smile on his face deepened.

Liu Qianqian asked curiously, "What is it?"

"Room card," Du Xiao said, "the honeymoon suite of the Hilton C City Hotel, and this is the invitation letter for the suite." ”

Liu Qianqian blinked: "What, you took Hilton's endorsement advertisement?!!"

“...... It's not, but how can you call it?"

Liu Qianqian said: "This is the meaning of exclamation, that is, I am shocked, and I want to see it!"

Du Xiao smiled: "Unfortunately, this is just a private invitation, and it is something that will be delivered to the guests after booking a room." ”

Du Xiao said and opened another note, because it was not big, Liu Qianqian didn't see it at first.

"It seems," Du Xiao said, "this is a gift from Sister Hua." ”

Liu Qianqian also understood now: "Is it for us to go to City C?"

Du Xiao said: "Yes." ”

He read the invitation carefully: "Two days later, it is estimated that Sister Hua from the crew will also ask you for leave." ”

Liu Qianqian said: "I don't know at all. ”

"It's called a surprise. Before Du Xiao's words fell, Liu Qianqian's mobile phone rang, and she glanced at the caller ID on the screen: "Director Xue." ”

Du Xiao raised his eyebrows, as expected.

"Qianqian, Mr. Hua just asked you for five days off," Director Xue said, "I'm not in a hurry to shoot here, you and Du Xiao have a good time!"

"Director Xue......" Liu Qianqian smiled bitterly, "how can you be so unanxious?"

Sitcoms are also different from ordinary TV series, ordinary movies and TV series, you can shoot other people's scenes first, and wait for Liu Qianqian to go back and then reshoot her part, sitcoms are just two or three scenes, more than 20 minutes of an episode of stories, the protagonist is not there, and it is basically impossible to shoot.

Director Xue said: "Hey, it's okay for us to delay for two days, you can't be delayed, that's it, C City, yes, I think I still studied in C City back then!"

"I'm really embarrassed," Ms. Liu said, "and we'll be back as soon as we're done with the holidays." ”

After hanging up the phone, she sighed.

Du Xiao said: "Not used to this?"

Liu Qianqian nodded: "I feel a little guilty." ”

"Now that we have decided, we don't have to think about it so much, everyone likes it, we just need to accept everyone's kindness. Du Xiao said, "Then what number of tickets do I book?"

Liu Qianqian thought for a while: "I just made the first marinade today, I bought all the ingredients, it's a pity not to do it, I'm done today, I can eat it tomorrow for a day, tomorrow night or the day after tomorrow."

Du Xiao said: "Then the plane will be ready the morning after tomorrow, and it will not be so tired." ”

Liu Qianqian said: "I'll leave it all to you to arrange." ”

She went back to the kitchen, Meilan was trying to wash the spices, Liu Qianqian went over and took a look: "It's okay." ”

"Whew~" Meilan drained the spices, "What are these? ”

"It's just that the supermarket usually sells those five-spice powders or something, this is the original spice of five-spice powder. ”

Meilan was puzzled: "Then I see more than five kinds?"

Liu Qianqian said with a smile: "Five-spice powder is just a concept, it doesn't mean that there are five kinds. ”

Meilan said: "Isn't it five, why is it called five-spice powder and not thirteen spices?"

"Because this five refers to the five flavors of sweet, sour, bitter, spicy and salty, and it is also called fragrance, so it is called five spices," Liu Qianqian said, "Isn't there thirteen spices on the market?" "The girls are small

Meilan suddenly realized, Liu Qianqian patted her little head: "Go and bring the cauldron." ”

The kitchen of her house is the chef's stove, and the stove is extremely hot, and it cannot be used to make something like lo mei, which is simmered over low heat, and it is not suitable. There is also a small stove for making soup at home, put it on the ground, and then set up a large pot.

The chicken and duck sticks and bones have been cleaned by Aunt Zhang, and the water has been blanched, Liu Qianqian put these together with the spices, boiled them first, then skimmed off the foam, and then put them in a special pot to boil.

Meilan also saw the boiling pot for the first time: "Wow, what is this?"

"To cook this kind of thing, you need to stir it all the time, so as not to paste the bottom," Liu Qianqian said, "Some small shops rely on chef manpower to boil, with this pot, you can boil it yourself, the pot is called by us, the scientific name is stirring pot, but there are many kinds of stirring pots, this kind of speed is relatively slow, relatively gentle, will not paste the bottom, and will not break the ingredients." ”

The mixing pot looks like a pool, with a deep cauldron in the middle of the basin, and above the pot is something like a mechanical arm, into which a stirring rod sticks vertically.

After Liu Qianqian turned on the switch, the stirring rod began to move slowly, stirring along the pot from the outside to the inside, and then from the inside to the outside, the action was very slow and orderly.

Meilan had never seen this kind of thing, and after looking at it curiously for a long time, Liu Qianqian cleaned up the kitchen briefly: "You can turn off the heat after cooking for more than an hour." ”

"An hour is enough?" said Meilan, "so fast?"

"How so. Liu Qianqian said, "After that, I have to soak for twelve hours and burn it again to be complete, but I have to go out the day after tomorrow, so I will make some food with semi-finished products today, and the rest will be made when I come back." ”

When she planned to make the first brine, she didn't know that she had been arranged to go to City C, but she bought everything, and she couldn't do it if she didn't do it, the chickens, ducks and pigs that had to be slaughtered on the same day to make the brine juice couldn't be done if they were frozen, two ducks, two chickens, eight catties of stick bones, even if they made it for dinner, they couldn't eat it.

The Liu family itself does not use frozen goods, the refrigerator is more refrigerated than frozen, in addition to the steamed buns and dumplings, it is ice cream, or fish transported from the deep sea, it is not frozen, and it is okay if it is frozen.

In addition, some prepared pork tenderloin and beef tenderloin have been pickled, and they are used when stir-frying, and they are generally prepared for a week's sake, and they will be eaten within two weeks at most.

As for chicken, duck and fish, they are all delivered directly to your home by the fresh food store outside.

But after it was done, Liu Qianqian thought of it again, and she could also send it directly to the canteen of Bright Entertainment for Baozishan.

I didn't think of it at the time.

She shook her head and went back to the living room to watch the TV for a while, which happened to be playing a sitcom, and she watched it while thinking about how she was going to act.

After about an hour, go back to the kitchen and turn off the heat, remove the stirring rod and wash it, and cover the pot.

Although I want to do it tonight, it's still too early to use it now, and the fragrance is not caught at all.

Liu Qianqian instructed Aunt Zhang again, she will pack her luggage tomorrow, get this and that, it is estimated that she will not have time to watch, and after soaking for twelve hours, let Aunt Zhang take out all the ingredients inside, the chickens and ducks have been dismantled, broken and mixed with eggs to make balls, this ball can be frozen, and it will be used when eating hot pot at home in the future, the essence is not particularly delicious, after all, the nutrition and essence have been cooked, but just throw it away like this, it is too waste of food.

The stick bones are also shaved, and the meat is fried with chili peppers.

The clean soup base is boiled again for another hour, and the brine juice is ready, and the rest of the matter, Liu Qianqian will be handed over to Baozishan, she can't use this head marinade, or let it be used by Baozishan.

As soon as Bao Zishan heard about this good thing, he wanted to come over that day, Liu Qianqian thought about it and simply asked him to come over.

Aunt Zhang and Aunt Meng are not very responsible for the kitchen, and they usually cook a vegetable and make porridge every day, but they still don't have enough experience in making things like lo-mei.

Baozishan came, Liu Qianqian was completely relieved, she went back to the room and took out the suitcase she had bought in L City before.

Hua Qiaoran booked a hotel for them for five days, five days is so long, you must not only bring one set of pajamas, but also underwear...... Liu Qianqian's face heated a little, do you want to get some of that kind of underwear?

She is already an adult woman, Du Xiao is also an adult man, the two of them are about to go on vacation and live in a honeymoon suite for five days, what does this mean, Liu Qianqian will not not understand.

It's because I understand that I want to be prepared.

It is better to replace all the toiletries with odorless ones, although Du Xiao is not so sensitive to these fragrances, but he doesn't like them very much.

Liu Qianqian was busy in the bedroom for a long time, and she didn't do anything, and finally called Meilan in.

Meilan also just knew about it, covered her mouth and screamed silently for a long time, jumping up and down in the room, almost jumping on the bed a few times.

Liu Qianqian was puzzled: "Why are you more excited than me?"

"You don't understand, this is Xipi!" Meilan said with a smile, "I can't be happy alone, call Xuanxuan tomorrow, I'll call her!"

Liu Qianqian said: "Xuanxuan is busy, don't disturb her!"

"No matter how busy he is, Sippy can't help it!"

Liu Qianqian sighed helplessly and let her go, anyway, He Xuan was so busy, she definitely didn't have time.

"Xuanxuan said yes, see you tomorrow, which mall are we going to?"

Liu Qianqian: "......"

Liu Qianqian said: "Just the shopping mall near the company." ”

Their company is in the city center, and there are many large chain stores nearby, so it is convenient to shop.

Meilan couldn't hide her excitement: "I have to buy three sets of pajamas, right?"
