Chapter 81: Everyday Life
In mid-October, Lee's father's body had basically recovered, and Lee Taekhan and Kim Tae-hee had officially begun to prepare for the trip that had been delayed for a long time.
"I think it's good to go to Venice. β
"I don't have a chance to go to the beach in the summer, and it's good to go to the Maldives or Hawaii. β
"Travel magazines say that Santorini, Greece is a great place to travel in October. β
"I'm also thinking about going on a food trip to China, but Thai Hy is also very well-known there, and it will be a problem to recognize it when the time comes. β
In the living room of Lee Taek-han's apartment, Lee Taek-han, Kim Tae-hee, and Park Se-hyun are discussing the destination of their trip, and there is Choi so-young, who is purely joining in the fun, and Jung so-yeon and Sunny interject a few words from time to time.
Originally, when Li Zehan heard Kim Tae-hee say that Park Shixian would go on a trip with them, he was extremely disappointed, and the long-awaited world of the two was gone, and the look of being completely desperate for this world made Kim Tae-hee feel amused, and then told him that Park Se-hee would go with her husband, and they could also play their own games after arriving, and they went together just because Kim Tae-hee felt that Park Shi-han had worked too hard for so long, so he decided to treat Park Shi-han, and Li Zehan immediately recovered his vitality after hearing thisγ
"It's rare to go on a trip once, it's a pity to only go to one place, why don't we take a trip to Europe? Kim Tae-hee sat cross-legged on the sofa with a pillow and looked at everyone.
"That's a good idea, Nuna, don't you think. Kim Tae-hee's idea, Lee Zehan naturally supported it, he looked at Park Se-hyun and asked.
"I think it's good, but I'd love to go to the beach. Park Shixian said with an embarrassed face.
"It's not easy, the rabbit beach on the Italian side is also very beautiful, and the diving and snorkeling there are also very popular, which will definitely satisfy you. Li Zehan immediately spoke.
"In that case, then I don't have a problem with that, you decide. Park Shixian shrugged her shoulders and said, in fact, she doesn't care where she goes, the most important thing is to be able to relax with her husband, and the whole air ticket and accommodation are all inclusive of Kim Tae-hee, she wants to go to the beach to have a good time, and she has no opinion.
"Then let's just decide, but although it's about traveling around Europe, we still have to plan our route carefully, otherwise we'll waste a lot of time just running around. Li Zehan said and rummaged through travel magazines related to Europe, he went to the bookstore yesterday to buy a lot of magazines and came back, it can be said that almost every one of the bookstores has been bought.
Then the group began to discuss the route.
The teenage trio, who were still involved in the discussion, are now silent, and they can be said to be busier in October, and on October 9, they won the 25th "Golden Disc Award - Record Award" for their album "Oh!" , became the first singer in South Korea's history to win both the Record Award and the Music Source Award, and the first female singer in history to win the Record Award, so their schedule is even busier, and in November, the company will officially announce the news that they are starting to attack the overseas market, so looking at Li Zehan and a few people who are so leisurely discussing the reason for going overseas, they can be said to be all kinds of envy and jealousy, not to mention how bitter they are.
The route of the tour was not determined by Li Zehan for a while, so they stopped discussing it for the time being. looked at the time and found that it was almost lunchtime, and there were no materials at home, so Li Zehan ordered a lot of dishes in Li Qingxuan's store, and then accompanied another game controller who found Li Zehan's wide variety of game consoles to play a game, Choi so-young was eating snacks and watching, while Zheng so-yeon chatted with Kim Tae-hee and Park Shi-han about recent fashion topics.
"Even, you have so many game consoles here, why did you hide them before. Sunny said with some dissatisfaction while playing with the game console with great interest, if she knew that Li Zehan had so many fun game consoles here, she would definitely come often, and she could also help herself improve her food, so she didn't have to eat takeout in the dormitory all day.
"There were very few people playing with it before, so they were all in the storage room and only took it out some time ago. Li Zehan said with a smile while abusing Sunny with an overwhelming advantage.
"Could it be that Zhiyuan has been here? She didn't even call me, it's too much, I must pinch her face next time we meet to show punishment. Cui Xiuying immediately said when she heard this.
"When she came that day, she said she called you, but your phone was turned off. Li Zehan looked at her and said.
"Well, it should be when I'm too tired to catch up on sleep after the trip. Cui Xiuying said with a little weakness.
"I think you played with your phone too late at night and forgot to charge it, so your phone is out of battery. Li Zehan complained.
"So, what I hate the most is that you, always be very honest when you shouldn't be honest, and you'll die if you pretend to be stupid. Cui Xiuying pointed at Li Zehan frantically and said.
"It's not going to die, but that's not fun, is it. Li Zehan's words made everyone else can't help but despise him, and secretly warned himself in his heart to be more careful of this unscrupulous black-bellied man in the future.
After the lunch was delivered, Li Zehan and the others ate it, and Sunny, who had abused Li Zehan once, turned his grief and anger into appetite, and the amount of food was comparable to that of Cui Xiuying, who was known as the god of food when they were young.
After eating, Choi so-young and the three of them left first, and after more than half an hour or so, Kim Tae-hee and Park Se-hyun also left, so Lee Taek-han packed up his things and left the apartment to prepare to return to the hospital.
There is also a family dinner tonight, in order to celebrate Li's father's recovery, but there is still a lot of time before the appointed time, and Li Zehan doesn't want to stay bored at home.
"Why are you here again. Seeing Li Zehan walking over, Jiang Jingyan rolled her eyes and said.
"What do you say really makes me sad, why am I here again, your disgusted tone makes me feel that I should bring this delicious pastry to our section chief. Li Zehan said with a hurt face.
"No, since you have brought it all, how can there be any reason to take it away, even if your kid has some conscience, and you know how to bring food here, I haven't eaten lunch yet, just to pad my stomach." Jiang Jingyan immediately stepped forward and snatched the pastry from Li Zehan's hand and said.
"Are you busy in the emergency department today?" Li Zehan looked at the situation in the emergency room, there were not many patients.
"Busy or not, the problem is that I just went to a boring meeting, missed a meal, and just now there is another patient who needs me to be treated, so I haven't eaten until now. β
"You can eat some pastries first, and if there are any patients, I'll help you see them." Li Zehan waved his hand and said.
"We all want to be busy, you just have nothing to do, I really don't know what to say. Jiang Jingyan shook her head and said.
"So now we're mutually beneficial, aren't we. Li Zehan said with a chuckle.
"Whatever you want, it just so happens that I'm feeling a little tired today, just take a break, don't make any mistakes for me. β
"You don't have to worry about me. Li Zehan patted his chest and promised that as long as he had something to do, he would do it.
After spending an afternoon in the emergency room, and then going to Kim Zhixiong's to chat for a while, Li Zehan left the hospital and drove to the restaurant where the dinner party was going to be in the evening.
Chihwaja is a restaurant that serves Korean court cuisine. It was opened in 1991 to promote the Intangible Cultural Heritage No. 38 "Food in the Palace of the Joseon Dynasty" to the public. The palace cuisine made with the best ingredients produced in each season is the best in Korea.
Kuzuri saka and fairy stove are the signature health diet of Ikehanako. Ikehanako Restaurant uses a small amount of natural seasonings to make it a little too light for those who prefer a pungent taste, but only here can you enjoy more than 20 kinds of "palace dinners", which is the magic weapon of Ikehanako.
Korean court cuisine has its roots in the Joseon Dynasty. According to the regulations of the time, only the king's imperial meal could reach or exceed 12 dishes, the nobles could only have 7-9 dishes, and the common people could only have 3-5 dishes on the table.
Nowadays, anyone can eat Korean royal court food, and there is also a palace restaurant that specializes in welcoming tourists. Most of them are 12-15 dishes, which is enough for royal standards. Generally speaking, you start with dried fruits and serve them one by one, followed by various side dishes such as three-color rolls, porridge, kimchi, and seafood salad, followed by main dishes such as grilled meat, fried fish, cooked seafood, ginseng, mushroom soup, and finally dessert, which takes at least two hours to eat.
Today's court cuisine has become commoner, but it still retains its exquisite traditions. Ms. Han Fuli, director of the Korean Palace Food Research Institute, believes that the first manifestation of palace cuisine is sincerity, and the chef cuts the food raw materials into thin strips, with the same thickness, slenderness, length and width, and neatly placed them in the food box, which shows the degree of care. This is not only convenient for guests to pick up with chopsticks, but also convenient for the elderly and children to eat, reflecting the connotation of people-oriented. Secondly, court cuisine pursues the taste of the food raw materials themselves. China's Manchu and Han banquets are about the delicacies of the mountains and the sea, the color, the flavor, and the luxury, while the Korean court cuisine is about health care and balanced nutrition. There is a dish called five-color skewers, the food ingredients are beef, dried shiitake mushrooms, bellflower, carrots, etc., among which bellflower has a health care function for the trachea and lungs. Eating rice with medicine is also a specialty of Korean court cuisine.
The Korean TV series "Dae Jang Geum", which has swept some Asian countries and regions in the past few years, is said to be based on a true story. In the middle of the 16th century, there was a girl named Chang Jin, who was 7 years old when her parents were involved in a palace conspiracy. In order to fulfill her parents' wishes, she entered the palace and was noticed for her talent and hard work. Even if she was framed, she did not bow to fate, devoted herself to learning medical skills, integrated medical skills into the palace diet, accidentally saved the king's life, and was trusted by the king, becoming the first female imperial doctor in Korea, and was named "Dae Jang Geum". She may be regarded as a generation of famous doctors who combine medicine and diet.
Li Zehan came to the booked private room under the leadership of the waiter, opened the door and looked at it, and found that Li Qingxuan had already taken Park Luya and Park Shuwen to sit in the position, Li Zehan greeted with a smile, and the two little guys also waved their hands excitedly at Li Zehan when they saw their uncle coming.
After about ten minutes, Li's father and mother came to the private room, and this dinner officially began, the family was happy, the atmosphere was quite good, and the serious father Li also smiled a little more because of his grandson and granddaughter.
