Chapter 292: Chef Xiao goes online
Jim couldn't understand Chinese, but he had eyes and could see the expressions of Su Yi and Xiao Yi.
The young man's eyes were full of interest. I didn't expect Ms. Su to be such a strong and capable woman, in front of her husband, she was actually a little woman with low eyebrows and pleasing eyes.
Jim thought to himself: It seems that he will have to change his strategy in the future and spend more time trying to please Mr. Xiao, the head of the family.
In this way, you can eat and drink in Xiao's house for a long time.
In the past few days, after eating the Xiao family's meals and Su Yi's various different soups, Jim is very happy every day, and he can't wait to move to Xiao's house. Even if he goes to sleep in the living room, he is happy.
If Xinxin was older, he would definitely try his best to capture her heart and become a son-in-law in the Xiao family.
Well, the word son-in-law was taught to him by Linda.
After eating the Xiao family's food, he didn't want to go back to eat Western food outside.
I've eaten it for so many years, and I've eaten enough.
……
Su Yi didn't know Jim's little abacus yet, she saw that Xiao Yi ignored her, knew that he was still angry, and his mood was three points flustered, three points dazed, and four points impatient.
This feeling of waiting for the knife to fall is really bad.
Xiao Yi's gaze quietly fell on Su Yi's constantly moving thumb, knowing that she was upset, the corners of his mouth quickly hooked slightly, and then straightened, and his side face was as cold and hard as a knife, which made Su Yi sad and scared.
Jim also noticed that Xiao Yi was in a bad mood, and swished out to release cold air, which made people's backs cold.
Mr. Xiao is very difficult to mess with. Jim labeled Xiao Yi as a cold-faced god.
Kind-hearted, he was going to return to the apartment later, privately mention the rest of the friends of the team to eat and drink, wait for two days for Mr. Xiao's mood to improve, and then dangle in front of him, give him gifts, and try to please him.
Whether you can continue to enjoy the delicious food at Xiao's house depends on Mr. Xiao's meaning. No one can snub him.
……
The group drove the car to the underground garage of the apartment, and Jim and the others consciously acted as porters, running three or four times, moving all the things brought by Xiao Yi to their house upstairs, and piling up the originally spacious and slightly empty living room.
Su Yi asked Xiao Yi in Chinese: "Brother Xiao, what are these? I wanted to ask you at the airport, why did you bring so many packages and boxes?"
"Just some meat, silk and porcelain. The meat was left for us all to eat, and the silk and porcelain were gifts I brought to Richard and them. People have helped you so much, we have to show something. ”
"Brother Xiao, you still think about it thoughtfully. Su Yi smiled at Xiao Yi very doggedly. She is really sparing no effort to curry favor with Xiao Yi.
Xiao Yi snorted: "Who called some people to be particularly troublesome and think too little." ”
Su Yi took his hand and said with a smile: "I have deeply reflected and reviewed myself. ”
She pulled Xiao Yi's arm, made him bow his head, and whispered to him, "Can you forgive me?"
"You've been black-faced, I'm scared. I'm also afraid, you see that she doesn't dare to approach you. And it's not good for the guests to see it, how rude. ”
They spoke Mandarin, and the young people present couldn't understand anything except Linda and Xinxin.
Richard and the others silently thought that they needed to learn and master Mandarin as soon as possible. Otherwise, it is not good to often not understand what Su Yi and they say.
Xiao Yi didn't just look at his heart, Richard and they were also several steps away from him, and they peeked at him one by one, the little appearance that he wanted to talk to him but didn't dare, Xiao Yi almost couldn't hold back his laughter.
These days the pride seems to be in awe of him. I don't know why? With their family background and status, there is no need to fear him as a Chinese.
It is better for them to fear him than to despise him.
Thinking of this, Xiao Yi put on his most amiable smile, pulled Su Yi to sit on the sofa, and warmly beckoned Richard to come and sit too.
"Don't be restrained, make this your own home, and sit as you please. Thank you very much, my lover. If there is anything you need me to do in the future, please tell me directly, I can't give up my definition. ”
"You're serious. It's just a gesture, please don't take it to heart with you and Ms. Su. Richard: They all spoke in unison.
Xiao Yi didn't answer, this is a gesture for them, and it can be said to be a life-saving grace for them.
He beckoned to the heart sitting next to Anna and Linda, "Go get a knife and get these boxes and brown packages unpacked." ”
"Okay. ”
Xiao Yimu sent his daughter into the kitchen, and said to Richard, who was staring at the boxes and packages curiously and eagerly: "In the wooden box is the porcelain I chose for you, and in the brown package is some silk. ”
"It's not a precious brand, but it's a carefully selected product. It's a little bit of care for our husband and wife, I hope you like it. ”
Linda, Anna, and Cheryl screamed in surprise at once, and the three of them were so excited that they almost didn't dance: "Mr. Xiao, Ms. Su, you are too polite." Thank you both!we definitely love it!"
Richard, Jim, and Ben were also full of joy: "Let the two of you break the bank." Our family and I are particularly fond of Chinese porcelain and silk. ”
"If you like it, it's fine. Su Yi saw Xinxin go to the kitchen and get a knife out, "Xinxin, let's open the brown package first and see what the silk your father bought looks like?"
Linda and the three girls followed their hearts, staring intently at the package, their eyes sparkling with anticipation and excitement.
"Dear Sister Cindy, be careful when you go under the knife, don't cut the silk inside. That's a good thing, but if it's broken, we're going to die of distress. "Anna really wanted to snatch the knife from her heart and do it herself.
Linda: "The last time my mother and sister went back to Jiangnan, China to visit relatives, they brought back several cheongsams, and they were super beautiful! This time, Mr. Xiao brought silk directly, and when I turned around, I took two pieces of cloth and went to Chinatown to find a tailor to help make some beautiful cheongsams. ”
When Cheryl and Anna heard this, they said in unison, "Linda, call me when you go!
This time, let the tailor compare Su Yi's white background and pale pink lotus pattern cheongsam. That super fairy one.
Jim, Ben, and Richard were not very interested in silk, and they wanted to see what kind of porcelain Xiao Yi had chosen for them.
The three of them have recently become acquainted with each other at Xiao's house, so they went directly into the kitchen, each took a thin-pointed knife out, and opened several large boxes containing porcelain in three or two clicks.
"Oh my God! this long-necked stained porcelain vase is so artistic! The shape is so unique, and the color is beautiful!" Jim admired.
Richard couldn't wait to fix his eyes on the blue-and-white glazed plum vase he was holding, "How can there be such a beautiful color in this world, such a delicate and beautiful pattern!
Ben held a white porcelain pen in one hand, and held a colored porcelain butterfly flower bottle in the other, and couldn't put it down: "I want these two pieces." ”
"You are not allowed to rob me!" said Ben to Richard and Linda, who was admiring the silk on the sidelines, in a particularly domineering manner.
Among the several people, his fists are the hardest, so he has a lot of confidence.
Linda, Anna, and Cheryl put aside the delicate, soft, and super-beautiful silk for a while, and snatched the porcelain with Ben.
In order to fight for a few more good things, several people rushed to one place and grabbed them.
If it weren't for being guests at Xiao's house, Su Yi and Xiao Yi were staring at them, these heirs of the consortium, who have always shown their gentlemanly demeanor and ladylike temperament, would definitely beat and scold regardless of their image.
The porcelain parts are beautiful, the silk is exquisite, so that people can't give up, and everyone wants to monopolize all the good things.
In this case, it is strange that it can be distributed in a harmonious manner.
Su Yi amused to watch several young people who had seen the world compete with each other, and occasionally heard some people laughing proudly, and some people stomping their feet and swearing in anger.
She leaned her head on Xiao Yi's shoulder and smiled: "Brother Xiao, do you feel very kind when you see them like this? In our hometown, when department stores hold promotions during holidays, everyone rushes to buy things like this." ”
"yes. I don't think they'll be able to distribute well for a while. Let them fight. It's a quarter past six, and it's time to prepare dinner. I'll go to the kitchen first and cook the rice. ”
"Wait, I'll do it anyway. You've been on a plane for so long, you're definitely tired. Sit back and rest. ”
"Don't make a fuss. If you are injured, just sit and don't move. Otherwise, what should I do if I get wounds on your hands and feet, and you get injured a second time? Xinxin, you come with me and help my father wash the vegetables. ”
"Hmm. Xinxin ate her favorite canned meat, watched a good show, burped with satisfaction, and went to the kitchen to help Xiao Yi.
The family cook came, Su Yi was happy, and the old god was leaning on the sofa, turning on the TV to watch the drama. She was chasing a family comedy lately.
A few people grabbed the back, everyone felt that they had suffered a loss, and they did not reach a consensus, they found that if they continued to fight, it would be ugly, so they temporarily suspended the battle, carefully carried the things back to the opposite side together, and waited for Xiao's house to finish eating and go back to redistribute.
"You're all done? Look you're all sweating? Jim, turn on the fan. "Su Yi has been cooking for the past two days, and they are both remote control conductors, Jim, they have a division of labor and cooperation, and they are used to giving commands.
Jim: They are very obedient to the command for the sake of food. Su Yi commanded them to cook, and the meals they cooked made them feel more delicious and more fulfilling.
In fact, Su Yi felt that the taste was average, and the reason why Jim and they thought it was delicious was mostly due to psychological effects.
"Okay. When Jim turned on the fan, he moved a stool and sat down in front of the fan, and after blocking the wind, Richard and the others were displeased, and they went up together to beat him to the ground and drag him away.
Su Yi smiled and watched them make trouble, these people, in their house, are becoming more and more comfortable and more and more open. Unlike before, there is still some restraint and outwardness.
The cool breeze made people feel comfortable, and a few people cooled down, smelled the smell of vegetables from the kitchen, and took a few deep breaths intoxicated.
Richard raised his eyebrows in surprise: Mr. Xiao's cooking skills are no worse than Ms. Su's. Have they both studied under the same chef?
Ben sat directly next to Su Yi and asked her, "Ms. Su, are your husband and wife the heirs of a culinary family?
When the other five people heard Ben's question, they all pricked up their ears quietly, wanting to hear what Su Yi had to say.
"It's not. If you cook every day and stay in the kitchen for more than ten or twenty years, you can become a master. ”
Su Yi suddenly thought that this was also an opportunity to pat Xiao Yi's ass, so he immediately sat up straight and said loudly: "My lover is particularly talented in this regard. ”
"When we first met, he didn't go into the kitchen very much, and the food he cooked tasted average. Now his cooking skills can be said to have surpassed many master chefs. I'm far from him. Blessed are you today. ”
Xiao Yi listened to Su Yi praise himself, cut the meat in half, smiled with his eyebrows and eyes, his expression was incredibly soft, and he muttered to himself: "This Xiao Su is really flamboyant." ”
Squatting in the corner washing vegetables, Xin Xin rolled her eyes speechlessly, and her father was too coaxing.
Dozens of minutes ago, he was scared to death with a black face, like an iceberg walking on a lump. Now her mother casually praised him, and he became a warm sun.
Tsk, man, your name is fickle.
Xiao Yi asked his heart: "Do you know why your mother went to the nightclub that night?"
"I don't know. It's just a whim. I heard Jim say that the nightclub they took their mom to play was very special, and there was a different show every night, and it was lively and fun. If it weren't for my mother's permission, I would have wanted to see it for a long time. If you don't go to a nightclub in the United States, what's the difference between it and local buns?"
Xiao Yi's face, like a June day, immediately became gloomy again: "Nonsense! Girls should love themselves and respect themselves, go to nightclubs, what kind of body will they become! You are not allowed to learn from your mother." If I find you going to a nightclub, Xiao Mingxin, see that I don't break your legs!"
"You are a rigid and backward old old-fashioned person! I can't make sense of you. When his temper came up, he got up and left: "Hmph! You can wash these dishes yourself." ”
She went out to avoid Su Yi's injured hand, hugged her and hummed aggrievedly: "Mom, you talk about stinky dad." His thinking was too backward and too entrenched, and I couldn't communicate with him. I mentioned it, saying that I wanted to go to the nightclub to see the long history, so as not to be laughed at by my classmates, so he said that he would break my legs. Do you think he's bad?"
Richard, when they heard what they said, looked at her sympathetically one by one. They didn't want to evaluate Xiao Yivain, so they had to give Xinxin a helpless look.
Xiao Yi is cooking taro roast chicken, he first pours the cut chicken into the pot, mixes ginger, garlic, pepper, chili pepper and other seasonings and stir-fry until the chicken is golden brown, then pours in the taro and stir-fry for about two minutes, adds bone broth to the pot, and covers the pot with a simmering lid.
Before he covered the pot, the domineering aroma had gone down from Richard's nose and into their hearts and stomachs, stimulating their stomachs to squirm, their stomachs croaking, and saliva constantly secreting.
Su Yi saw that the young people had a greedy look on their faces, and that expression, as if she had been hungry for a few days and saw the delicacies of the mountains and seas, she slightly pulled the corners of her mouth, smiled, and turned to talk to Xinxin.
"Good baby, how can you say that about my father? He came all the way to take care of us, and when I heard you say that, I am afraid that I will die of sadness. Hurry up and apologize to him. ”
"No! I'm not wrong, he's a stubborn old man. Xinxin actually regretted it, but she, like Su Yi, wanted to save face and couldn't pull off that face.
Su Yi flicked between her eyebrows: "Don't be petty! Dad is for your good, he doesn't know much about the culture of the United States, because his mother was attacked in a nightclub, he has a deep prejudice against the nightclub, thinking that it is the Longtan Tiger's Den, and he is afraid that you will be hurt if you go." After this, I will communicate with him well. You go and apologize to Dad now. Anyway, you shouldn't say that about him. And you're still underage, so you're not allowed to go out of nightclubs. ”
"Okay. He went into the kitchen awkwardly and said sorry to Xiao Yi.
Xiao Yi had actually heard the conversation between her and Su Yi, and he said solemnly: "I'm just old-fashioned, Xinxin, no matter if you are under the age of eighteen, you are not allowed to go to nightclubs with people." You know? I don't care what the culture of the United States is. We are Chinese, and we must follow our Chinese culture. Girls just can't go to nightclubs, where there is a mixture of smoke and fish. ”
"Got it!"
