Mushroom-stuffed quail is a must-eat dish in French cuisine at Christmas.

A whole quail only makes a small opening in the neck, and then without destroying the skin, the chef's skillful knife skills remove all the bones, which is similar to the whole chicken bone removal in Chinese food.

Then stew the side dish and the skeleton with white grapes and brandy, take the sauce, put it in the chopped mushrooms, parsley, and pork and stir until it sticks to the hand, and the pork must be made of Gallic bigorre black pig, which is only a third of the way.

When the filling is finished, it is poured into the deboned quail, and when it is half filled, it is filled with fatty foie gras and the filling is filled.

The cut is then wrapped in fine bacon, tied with cotton thread, and fried in a pan to complete the dish of mushroom-stuffed quail with a crispy skin and a soft and glutinous inside.

After the three of them had eaten the appetizer of the smoked salmon fillet, the quail was just in time to be served.

Huo Jinwei happily invited: "Ding Qiang, Xin Qing, you hurry up and try it." ”

Lin Dingqiang took a knife to cut open the still steaming quail, and the aroma of foie gras mixed with a faint aroma of mushrooms and pork instantly poured into his nostrils.

Moreover, after the baptism of pork and foie gras, the skinny quail also became oily and slippery, and you can't even feel the original taste of the quail after chewing two bites.

"Delicious. Xin Qing smiled and said, "Jinwei, you are really too hearty." ”

"As long as everybody is happy. Huo Jinwei said slowly: "The three of us have known each other for a long time, and we have eaten together a lot. But like today, especially after all kinds of things, it is even more rare to be able to sit down and eat, drink and chat together. I hope there will be many more days like this in the future. ”

After speaking, Huo Jinwei picked up the wine glass and clinked glasses with Xin Qing alone.

Xin Qing also knew the meaning of Huo Jinwei's words, and Lin Dingqiang naturally knew it, he even felt that his ears were hot, and he couldn't wait to go to the swimming pool in the living room to soak for a while to cool down.

After the two took a sip, Huo Jinwei asked, "Ding Qiang, didn't you prepare a gift for Xin Qing?"

"Huh?" Lin Dingqiang came back to his senses, "There are too many things, I forgot about it." Or I'll go out and choose now, and you eat first. ”

Xin Qing stopped Lin Dingqiang, who was about to leave, "No need, Lao Lin." If you have this heart, you can do it. ”

Huo Jinwei covered her mouth and smiled: "Look at it, Xin Qing still understands you." But you don't have to go out, I've got you covered. ”

Lin Xin and the others looked at Huo Jinwei suspiciously, Huo Jinwei picked up the wine glass and stood up, "Serve the wine, let's go out and have a look." ”

The three of them returned to the living room from the dining room, and what Lin Dingqiang didn't expect was that a tall Christmas tree would suddenly appear in the living room that was originally only furniture. The tip of the Christmas tree was almost touching the crystal chandelier hanging from the second floor.

In addition to the regular illuminations and decorations, there are also countless stars decorated with Swarovski crystals, reflecting the sunlight outside the window and reflecting the dazzling firelight.

Not to mention Lin Dingqiang, even Xin Qing, who lives abroad all the year round, has never seen such a luxurious Christmas tree.

"Now, Xin Qing. Huo Jinwei grabbed Xin Qing's arm, "This is a gift I gave you on behalf of Ding Qiang." I can assure it's the prettiest Christmas tree in all of New York. ”

Xin Qing didn't know what to say for a while, and was even a little moved. She looked at Huo Jinwei's eyes and said slowly, "Jinwei, this gift is too valuable. ”

"No matter how precious it is, it is not as important as the friendship between the two of us. Huo Jinwei said to Xin Qing like a big sister: "As long as you are happy, Ding Qiang will be happy." And I'm even happier. ”

Xin Qing quipped: "But I can't move this tree!"

Huo Jinwei seemed to think of something, she walked from the entrance, took the key, and walked back, "Don't move, you live in." ”

"Huh?"

"Aren't you looking for a job here now?" Huo Jinwei smiled: "My home is closer to the Observer, and it is convenient for you to go to work." Besides, you don't know. Yesterday, when Ding Qiang went downstairs to you, his face was full of worry. There's no Upper East Side security in Brooklyn, and if you live there according to your ability, the apartment here is worthy of your status. ”

Xin Qing didn't take Huo Jinwei's key, Huo Jinwei saw that Xin Qing didn't take it, and then said, "You can stay as long as you want." ”

"Jinwei, I appreciate your kindness. Xin Qing euphemistically shirked: "But I think living in Brooklyn will be a little easier, and my heart will not be so burdensome." ”

"There's no burden!" Huo Jinwei said sincerely: "You don't have to think about it, it's a matter between us, not about Ding Qiang." ”

Lin Dingqiang saw that the two were at a stalemate, and he knew Xin Qing's temper, "Why don't you eat first, let's talk about the house." ”

Huo Jinwei saw that Lin Dingqiang had spoken, she didn't say it stubbornly, and said with a smile: "Okay, don't say it." By the way, why don't we change into our swimsuits and have a drink in the pool?"

Xin Qing covered her mouth and smiled: "Isn't that going to kill Lao Lin?"

"Eh, just don't let him see it. The eyes of the two looked at Lin Dingqiang in unison, and Huo Jinwei continued: "Moreover, I don't dare to look at him!"

"Hahaha. Xin Qing laughed, "It's better to drink the bar, I'm afraid the quails are going to be cold." ”

"Let's go. Huo Jinwei pulled Xin Qing and walked towards the restaurant, Lin Dingqiang stood in place, with mixed feelings in his heart, and secretly thought, "I'm the quail on the plate, right?"

......

At 5 p.m. the next day, Lin Dingqiang opened his eyes from the bed in a daze.

He couldn't remember whether yesterday's brunch was dinner or supper, anyway, Huo Jinwei drank all the four or five bottles of wine prepared at the beginning, and opened a few more bottles later.

The three of them also had a great time, watching the starry sky of Manhattan and New York in the early hours of the morning, and it seemed that all the troubles became less exaggerated after drinking.

Lin Dingqiang slept in the guest room, and after getting out of bed, he wanted to find a bottle of water to drink, but after opening the Xiaoice box in the room, he found that there was still wine inside.

In addition to champagne such as Krug, there was also some sake, which made him feel a little overwhelmed by his already hangover.

Since he couldn't find water, Lin Dingqiang came to the bathroom supporting the guest room, where there were all kinds of bottles and cans on the washstand, and he picked up any bottle of Le Labo products.

Although the small brown and black bottles are inconspicuous and the packaging is very simple, the price of its 50ml products is about 300 dollars, and the ones prepared by Huo Jinwei are still limited to New York, and it is basically impossible to buy them elsewhere when they leave New York.

Lin Dingqiang opened a bottle casually, it had a faint woody fragrance, it smelled good, and it seemed that he could wipe a little to cover up the wine on his body later.

Turning on the faucet, Gollum drank a few sips of water, and Lin Dingqiang was ready to wash.

And at this time, Huo Jinwei knocked on the door, "Ding Qiang, are you up?"

Lin Dingqiang opened the door, "Just got up." ”

Huo Jinwei was already fully dressed, and when she went to watch the ball game, she wore the most comfortable sportswear with a long ponytail. Seeing Lin Dingqiang's sloppy appearance, she pinched her nose and said, "Wash quickly, Xin Qing and I are all cleaned up." It stinks to death. ”

"So fast?" Lin Dingqiang yawned as he said, "It'll be right away." ”

After speaking, Lin Dingqiang slipped into the bathroom, while Huo Jinwei walked downstairs.

The table was already filled with freshly squeezed juice and honey and other hangover products, and Xin Qing was also a little hangover, and she still didn't recover after drinking a glass of kiwi juice.

"You were crazy last night. Huo Jinwei sat next to Xin Qing, "Don't drink so much wine next time." ”

It's not scary to be drunk, the scariest thing is to have someone to help you recall.

Xin Qing said embarrassedly, "What did I do when I got drunk?"

Huo Jinwei was stunned for a second, and then laughed, "You! You asked me to take lipstick with you to make up Ding Qiang! I want him to be a good sister!"

Xin Qing sneered, she couldn't remember clearly, "Did you draw it?"

"Nope. Huo Jinwei replied, "Later, I dragged you into the room! Finally, I also fell asleep, allowing him to escape." ”

"Then I can't let him go next time. ”

Huo Jinwei looked up at the stairs and saw that Lin Dingqiang hadn't come down yet, so she asked, "Xin Qing, how about my proposal?"

"Moving in?"

Huo Jinwei nodded, "Yes, since you are going to work and live here and have good living conditions, Ding Qiang can rest assured." ”

Xin Qing handed Huo Jinwei a glass of orange juice and said frankly: "Jinwei, I don't want to lie to you. I don't plan to live here. ”

"Huh?" Huo Jinwei was taken aback, "No, are you going back?"

"That's right. Xin Qing nodded, "I've thought about it for a long time, but I still think it's better to go back." ”

Huo Jinwei took a deep breath, she was not annoyed by Xin Qing's decision, and quipped: "Are you afraid that you will be far away from Ding Qiang and have no chance of winning?"

"That's one of the reasons. Xin Qing smiled and said, "But I'm also confident that Lao Lin will make the decision he really wants." ”

"You're still so confident. Huo Jinwei took a sip of orange juice, "It's okay, you can take care of it after you go back." ”

"Thank you, Jinwei. Xin Qing thanked: "You let me know the meaning of love." ”

Huo Jinwei pointed to her nose and said, "Me?"

"Yes. Xin Qing explained: "It turned out that Lao Lin paid for me and thought about me, but now I understand that the relationship between two-way is really meaningful." ”

Huo Jinwei smiled lightly: "I don't want you to lose, you are a proud person in your bones." No matter what Ding Qiang chooses in the end, I hope you will always maintain this personality. You are still the admirable Xin Qing. ”

"I didn't say anything about alcohol. ”

Huo Jinwei said firmly: "I didn't say anything about drinking. ”

"Xin Qing, you guessed it!" Lin Dingqiang ran down from the stairs excitedly, the phone screen was still on, and Feng Xiaonan's number was displayed on it.

"Did you guess what?"

Lin Dingqiang turned on the speakerphone and put the phone on the table, "Mr. Feng, you say." ”

"Okay, Chairman. Feng Xiaonan said admiringly: "Sister-in-law, during the call auction time before the opening, Ding Chuan Holdings was still crushed by a large number of sell orders and was pressed on the fall limit, but in the third minute after the opening, a large number of buy orders suddenly poured in, which instantly made Ding Chuan Holdings' share price rush from the fall limit to the price limit. ”

Xin Qing smiled with satisfaction, "I'm right, right?"

Feng Xiaonan said excitedly: "Not only that, but even the turnover rate and transaction you predicted are not much different. ”

"How much?"

As of noon closing, the share price of Dingchuan Holdings returned to 15.14 yuan, and the order was about 50,000 hands. The turnover rate was as high as 38.19%, and the turnover was 2.76 billion yuan. Feng Xiaonan repeated in detail.

Xin Qing recalled the data she gave at the beginning, "It's quite close." How long did it take to react?"

"Since it was the first time to practice, some of the employees were not very familiar with it. Feng Xiaonan explained: "It took about 17 minutes to follow, and finally we found that there were five sellers and two buyers. Among the sellers, Huafu and Galaxy are the leading two, and the buyers are the Federal Reserve and Huaxing. ”

"Have you traced the specific sales department?" Xin Qing asked.

Feng Xiaonan said quite confidently: "Of course, even the specific address is clear. ”

"Not bad, not bad. Xin Qing smiled with satisfaction: "It's good to have such a result for the first time." ”

"But as you expected, Rongshan didn't eat meat this time. Feng Xiaonan said regretfully: "Otherwise, we will definitely make a lot of money!" Sister-in-law, you see how long you have time to come back to guide us and guide our work, and let us learn and learn!"

At first, when the three of them were in Hengsheng, Feng Xiaonan looked down on Xin Qing at first.

In her opinion, Xin Qing is just an airborne leader who has been gilded abroad, and she has no real skills.

However, with the actual combat again and again, Xin Qing's ability and ability gradually convinced Feng Xiaonan that she was a person with real skills.

And this time, Feng Xiaonan was completely convinced, and even convinced.

Xin Qing looked up at Lin Dingqiang, and said into the phone: "Just these two days, I will contact you then." ”

"Okay!" Feng Xiaonan was full of joy, and after Lin Dingqiang heard Xin Qing's reply, he was surprised: "You want to go back to the capital?"

Xin Qing smiled: "Yes, I just told Jinwei about this!"

When Feng Xiaonan heard that Huo Jinwei was also beside her, she remembered the circle of friends posted by Lin Dingqiang some time ago, and she became more and more confused about what the relationship between the three was.

"Chairman, then I'll let the staff make a summary first. Feng Xiaonan hurriedly said: "We are all waiting for you, my sister-in-law and Miss Huo to come back in the capital!"

After speaking, Feng Xiaonan hung up the phone first. Lin Dingqiang stuck his waist and pretended to be angry and said, "This Feng Xiaonan is getting more and more oily when he speaks!"

Huo Jinwei handed a glass of honey water to Lin Dingqiang, "Aren't you like this?

Xin Qing smelled the fragrance on Lin Dingqiang's body, "You still wear perfume?"

"Hold out the smell of alcohol. Lin Dingqiang took the honey water, "Aren't you going to watch the ball later?"

"There are still more than three hours, no need to rush. Huo Jinwei looked at her watch and said with a smile: "Eat something first, and then we will set off." ”
