Su Yi was chopping vegetables in the kitchen, and she skillfully and quickly made a knife.

I saw the shadow of the knife swaying, and the board clanged.

When he first came to the United States, Su Yi almost landed on the plane, heard unfamiliar languages, and saw people with different skin tones and hair colors, and began to think about the motherland, home, and Xiao Yi.

Su Yi desperately wanted to listen to the local voice and learn about current affairs in China, so that she could pretend that she was still in China.

She amplified the sound of the radio and listened to the announcer read the domestic news clearly, and a sense of intimacy and belonging was born.

Su Yi pondered, and called Xiao Yi after eating, saving him from worrying.

Xinxin put her luggage away in the innermost room on the second floor, she closed the door, this apartment was so well soundproofed that she couldn't hear the doorbell ringing downstairs.

And Su Yi listened to the news so intently that he naturally wouldn't notice that someone was ringing the doorbell.

As a result, several Harbin college students who cheekily knocked on the door of Xiao's house with small gifts were hung out of the door.

These top students were not annoyed after eating the closed door, still holding a smiling face, standing outside the door and ringing the doorbell unremittingly.

The main reason is that they have a desire for others, and their minds are occupied by the fragrance of the vegetables made by Su Yi, even if some people are unhappy in their hearts, they all endure it for the sake of food.

These top students were still shy at first, and they rang the doorbell, but no one answered, and they would press it after a minute.

All endured their saliva, with a tacit perfect smile, and spontaneously lined up outside the gate of Xiao's house.

For the first time, they were so willing to wait in line, and they couldn't wait.

The tip of the nose is filled with the aroma of braised pork ribs with fresh bamboo shoots, and the aroma of bamboo shoots and meat blends harmoniously, mixed with the fragrance of various spices, forming a fascinating taste.

This seems to have a magical fragrance, which makes the group of Harbin University students who have had enough of eating the school cafeteria and restaurant takeaway swallow saliva more frequently, and the stomach that has just eaten is hungrier than not eating.

The bamboo shoots that burned the ribs were dug out of the mountains by Su Yi who was not afraid of trouble, and only wiped off the mud with a wet handkerchief, without peeling off the shells, and put them in a plastic bag and airlifted them all the way with her and Xinxin.

The weather is getting hotter, and fresh bamboo shoots can't be left for a long time even if they are placed in the refrigerator.

Su Yi didn't bring much, about enough for her and Xinxin to eat three or four meals.

She first peeled a few to burn the pork ribs, and cut two of them, and put them in the pot of stewed chicken with mushrooms to enhance the flavor and make the soup fresher.

Su Yi used a pressure cooker to stew chicken, and another open pot to cook pork ribs.

The lid of the pressure cooker is tight, tight enough to basically envelop the taste of the stewed chicken, so that it does not resemble the aroma of braised pork ribs, starting from the open kitchen, passing through the dining room and living room, rushing out of the door cracks of the entrance and the main door, desperately running out, stimulating people's appetite.

At this time, Richard, who was the first to decisively throw away the takeaway, rushed to the gate of Xiao's house with red wine and waited for it, and pressed the red wine on his increasingly hungry stomach with a distorted face.

His face was half enjoyment, half pain.

"Oh God, the smell is so tempting. Richard murmured in a low voice, "Good master, please hurry up and open the door." ”

He's going crazy with the smell!

I really want to take a bite, no, how can I eat enough food that exudes such a magical fragrance!

He's going to take a few more bites.

I have to find a way to make friends with this owner, so that I can come to the door often to eat in the future.

If it weren't for a good upbringing, Richard would have wanted to do something that would have cost him a lot of money to poach cooks.

Richard thought that the owners who could afford the high-end apartments in the neighborhood would not be able to cook for themselves.

However, you can't poach other people's cooks, you can still ask them where they hired such a chef who knows how to cook.

He's going to ask for one too!

In this case, the bottle of 75-year-old red wine in hand is not sincere enough.

Richard, the son of a wealthy merchant, thought to himself: I must go back and take a few more bottles of good wine out of his collection and make good relations with this new neighbor.

Anyway, his family has a vineyard in France, and under the estate, there are also treasured two cellars full of vintage red wine, and these bottles are not missing.

Anna, the blonde beauty standing behind Richard, did the same, pressing a bottle of Chanel perfume in the middle of her belly, trying to use this action to calm her rumbling belly.

Anna pushed Richard in front of her with her other hand: "Don't stop, keep ringing the doorbell." ”

Linda behind Anna looked reserved, and said in an eager voice: "It's useless to ring the doorbell, change it." "It's just too torturous to smell it, you can't taste it!

The few people in line immediately behind them agreed with Linda's statement.

"That's right. We've all been ringing the doorbell for so long and there's no response at all. It must be a broken doorbell. ”

"That's right. If you don't go in again, what if the host's family runs out of food?"

Cheryl, who was standing at the end of the line, was relatively thin-skinned: "Wouldn't it be too rude for us to rush people to open the door during meal time?"

The owner hasn't opened the door for so long, so he obviously doesn't want to deal with them.

Richard snorted softly, "You feel rude, you can go back." We didn't tell you to follow. ”

One less person, and he can still eat one more delicious bite. Richard, the son of a shrewd wealthy businessman, thought so.

Cheryl's chin was raised, and the roots of her ears were red, but the person did not move. If she hadn't eaten that delicious food, she would definitely scratch her heart and liver tonight to the point that she couldn't even sleep.

At this time, Richard and they were about to knock on the door, Su Yi saw that the time was almost up, and more than half an hour had passed, and the chicken in her pressure cooker should have been almost stewed.

She glanced at her watch, it was seven o'clock in the evening local time, and it was time to get ready for dinner.

No matter how late it is, it is not conducive to health preservation.

She cut the freshly patted cucumber into sections, put it on a plate, poured two spoonfuls of Xiao Yi's secret chili sauce, put down the kitchen knife, opened the lid of the pot, and poked the chicken with a chopstick.

Suddenly, a burst of fragrance that could conquer everyone's sense of smell and tickle people's hearts began to spread rapidly from the kitchen.

Richard didn't need to be reminded, but he sniffed deeply at the various scents in the air and knocked the door.

Even if he is scolded and embarrassed by the master's house tonight, he will squeeze in and eat the delicious food that constantly tempts him!

And the roommates behind him, who looked anxious and eager and had green eyes in their eyes, obviously did the same.

Xinxin packed her luggage and was attracted downstairs by the scent.

After a long journey and a long time of busyness, she was also hungry.

Xinxin walked out of the house, and was still going down the stairs, when she heard the door ringing wildly.

One of the voices was anxiously shouting, "Hello, please open the door, we are neighbors to the door, and we have come to visit." ”

Xinxin, like Su Yi, is hospitable. As soon as she came to the United States, she met a neighbor who came to visit, felt that she was very popular, and wanted to open the door, and remembered what Su Yi said, so she went to the kitchen to find her for an idea.

"Mom, there are a few people outside the door who claim to be neighbors to the door, saying that they want to come in to visit us. I saw from the cat's eyes that they were all quite young, and they didn't look like bad people in terms of faces. ”

"They claim to be students at Harbin University, but everyone looks so mature that they don't look like students. Mom, you say, should we open the door for them?"

Su Yi had already adjusted the cucumber for the taste, and she gave the big bowl and chopsticks to her heart: "You continue to mix." I'll go out and have a look. When the ribs and chicken are cooked, you turn off the heat and serve the dishes. ”

"When I send them away, we'll eat. Su Yi had been on the plane for more than ten hours in a row, and he was already very tired and had no extra energy to entertain guests.

She planned to send Richard and them away with a few words, and after eating, she would go to bed after chatting with Xiao Yi for a few words.

"Okay. ”

Before buying this apartment, Xiao Yi asked a private detective to do a background check on the surrounding residents.

Especially the residents who live opposite the door, check carefully. I am afraid that I will encounter a neighbor who is not right-minded or misbehaps, which will bring danger to Su Yi and her mother and daughter.

Su Yi has Richard's photos and background information such as family history and friends. Although she had not officially met them, she knew them well.

She saw a few young people holding greetings in her eyes, with eager expressions, eager to break into the door, and she didn't know why, but she still opened the door, revealing a crack in the door, and looked at them curiously.

"Hi ......" Richard saw Su Yi wearing a cheongsam, black hair and black eyes, and he was stuck, he couldn't speak Chinese.

I don't know if this elegant and beautiful lady can speak rice dialect?

Seeing her holding on to the door, obviously reluctant to let them in, Richard, Linda, and Anna were all a little apprehensive in their hearts.

Linda, who is proficient in six Chinese, including Chinese, raised a warm smile, sideways squeezed out of his mouth Richard, and stood in front of Su Yi: "Beautiful lady, welcome to stay in the cloud apartment." ”

"This is a small gift for your family to move to a new home, please smile. I heard that the interior decoration of your house adopts the Chinese style rich in history and artistic beauty. ”

Linda's words are not made up, Xiao Yi's friend came to decorate with drawings and workers before, and met her a few times, and the two had conversations.

Linda is indeed very interested in the Xiao family's house.

"I majored in Chinese history in school, and my mother is also Chinese. I was very curious about your home, but I didn't have the opportunity to go in and appreciate it because the owner was not there. I wonder if I have the pleasure of coming in and having a look?"

Su Yi blinked, she didn't expect Linda's Mandarin to be so standard, and her choice of words and sentences was also very elegant and polite, better than many natives in Huaguo.

What a great boy.

She was in a good mood by Linda's sycophant, and reflexively replied to her in Chinese: "Thank you for the compliment." If you don't like the humble house, please come in. ”

Linda raised her eyebrows, tilted her head slightly, gave Richard a look of contempt, and with a subtle sense of superiority, she was the first to step into the door of the Xiao family.

Su Yi had already let one person in, so naturally he would not turn the rest away.

She smiled at Richard and said in standard rice language, "Please come in." Don't be inhibited, just make this your home. ”

Now she is not deeply aware of the gap between Chinese culture and Chinese culture.

Unexpectedly, because of this polite remark, she and her daughter did not have enough stomachs. The meal she had worked so hard to cook was swept away by a few young people with strange appetites.

Richard and the others heard Su Yi say this, and they were about to float on the spot with joy in an instant, and several people thought in unison: This beautiful lady must not have deliberately turned them away before, it must have been her doorbell broken.

Richard said sweetly to Su Yi: "Madam, your cheongsam is so beautiful! it is more beautiful than the one I saw at the auction before and fetched a thousand dollars." Of course, you are more beautiful yourself, especially you have an elegant temperament, which is particularly compatible with this cheongsam. ”

Su Yi immediately fell in love with this handsome and tall young man: "Thank you." ”

She paused and added, "You're also handsome." ”

Seeing that Richard and Linda quickly won the favor of their masters, Anna and the others resisted the desire to rush to the kitchen to grab something to eat, and racked their brains to praise Su Yi, hoping to praise her and let her keep them for dinner.

Xinxin came out with a big bowl of bamboo shoots and roasted pork ribs in both hands, competing to praise Su Yi himself and Richard and others, who were decorated by the Xiao family, suddenly stopped talking, and stared at her, to be exact, the dish in her hand.

Su Yi immediately understood their intentions.

She was praised by Richard, and immediately said politely: "If you don't dislike it, please sit down and try my craft together......"

Linda was afraid that she would regret it, so she quickly answered in ecstaty: "Of course I don't mind!"

Richard took a deep breath of intoxication, took a few big strides to approach the heart that was standing in place, and said in the gentlest tone of his life: "Beautiful girl, how can you be allowed to do such a rough job as serving vegetables?

That's what it tastes like! He's going to get drunk.

Linda and Anna walked side by side to the kitchen: "We're here to help, too." "There is a fresher and more fragrant smell in the kitchen, and I don't know what the dish is.

If you smell it again, your saliva will come out.

Not to be outdone, Cheryl and the others also flocked to the kitchen, shouting to help set the dishes and not eat white food.

Su Yi suddenly had a bad premonition, and her heart came to her, lowered her head and bit her ear: "Mom, they're a little strange." Seeing them scrambling to come into the kitchen to 'help', why do I think they are 'not good people'?"

"yes. But I have invited them to taste my craft, and I cannot repent now and drive them out. They probably haven't eaten much Chinese food, and they are a little curious, so they want to taste it. ”

"Anyway, I cooked so many dishes, enough for our two to eat two or three meals. It's not bad for them. Eat more in a while, this is specially made for you by your mother. ”

"The fresh bamboo shoots we brought can't be left for a long time, and we have to eat them all in just a few days. Tomorrow night, I'll give you a cold salad, let's eat it with a different taste, okay?"

Xinxin nodded violently: "Hmm." Mom, you're so nice!" Luckily, Mom came with her.

No wonder the songs are singing that a child with a mother is a treasure.

She said to Su Yi in Sichuan accent: "Mom, after eating, I'll give you a full body massage, I've worked hard for you today." ”

Su Yi smiled sweetly: "It's not hard." Mom is happy to see you and doesn't feel tired at all. ”

Richard had already put down the big bowl on the table of the Eight Immortals in the dining room, and if it weren't for his strong self-control, he would have reached out and grabbed the vegetables and meat directly into the bowl to eat.

Linda and the others quickly brought out the rest of the meal, and brought enough knives, forks, dishes, and chopsticks.

The chopsticks were reminded by Linda to Anna. Because her mother is Chinese, Anna's family occasionally eats Chinese food with chopsticks.

It's just that her mother's skills are limited, and the dishes she makes are far less attractive than Su Yi's color.

Just smelling the scent, Linda was sure that the dishes tasted extraordinary.

In fact, it was indeed as she thought, every dish was so delicious that people were so happy that they almost shed tears.

They marveled at how delicious it was in the world! They haven't tasted it until today. In the past 20 years, it has really been in vain!
