Chapter 40: A Delicious Supper
"My brother is here to eat fruit!" Wang Xiaolei changed into slippers and pajamas, and also put on a pair of thick-framed glasses, and her hair was tied casually, without a dignified image. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info Yang Yi is still immersed in this ink painting worth 240,000 yuan, as far as Yang Yi knows, his father contracted to plant fruit trees in the mountains and forests, and the net profit of removing the mess was about 300,000 yuan a year.
Wang Xiaolei lay lazily on the sofa and ate the fruit on the plate with a toothpick: "If you like this painting, I will give it to you." Wang Xiaolei's words are definitely not a joke, first of all, she doesn't know the value of this painting at all, and she really doesn't necessarily care about 200,000 or 200,000 things. And Yang Yi is now facing a big problem, should he tell Wang Xiaolei honestly, or make a fortune silently?
After thinking about it for a long time, Yang Yi finally made a decision to tell Wang Xiaolei the truth about the painting. This is not Yang Yi's hypocrisy to save face, this is a matter of principle for a person, Yang Yi is not short of money to this extent, but once he silently accepts the painting, he may be uneasy for the rest of his life.
"Sister, to tell you the truth, this painting is Jiang Tingxi's, at least worth 240,000 yuan, this is still what I said lower, I don't dare to accept your painting. After saying that, I felt much happier and began to eat all kinds of fruits in the fruit bowl with a toothpick. Wu Yan came out wrapped in a bath towel with wet hair, and Yang Yi almost didn't squirt out the pineapple in his mouth.
Wu Yan shook her head and said angrily: "Yang Yi is still here, can't you change into pajamas and come out?" Wu Yan rubbed her forehead and said bitterly: "Why are you beating me! Anyway, I'm used to sleeping naked, and now I'm going to take off my pajamas and I'm going to die!" Yang Yi felt that his nose was a little hot.
Say that it is fake, as for Liu Xia Hui's family, there must be a hardship, anyway, Yang Yi took advantage of the effort to eat fruit and secretly glanced at Wu Yan several times, I didn't expect this eldest lady to be so material, a piece of the two white flowers on the chest, and the bath towel was about to flow out, which was very tempting!
Wu Yan went back to the room to change clothes, Wang Xiaolei opened the scroll and looked at it carefully, and then she thought that it was just a dilapidated painting, and she didn't see where it was worth 240,000 at all. "I said brother, you won't be making my sister happy, although I know that antiques are valuable, but no matter how I look at this painting, I can't see that he is valuable, and I haven't heard of the Jiang Tingxi you said, I only know Qi Baishi and Zhang Daqian. A plate of fruit was quickly eaten, and Yang Yi was mixing with the remaining juice on the plate.
"Qi Baishi is a modern painter in the Republic of China, and this Jiang Tingxi is from the Qing Dynasty, and it seems that he is still an official, the two cannot be compared at all, but it seems that Mr. Qi Baishi's paintings are more valuable. Wang Xiaolei sat next to Yang Yi with the painting, and the faint body fragrance drilled straight into Yang Yi's nose, Yang Yi quietly opened the distance, Wang Xiaolei's maturity was not something he could resist.
"Seriously, is this painting real, my grandfather is very fond of calligraphy and painting collections, recently his old man's seventy-year-old birthday is coming, I am worried that there is nothing to send, if this painting is real, I will send it!" Yang Yi leaned against the sofa and said: "Is it true that you can find an appraisal firm tomorrow to see if you can get it, but there should be no problem." ”
Wang Xiaolei seemed to suddenly think of something, and said to Yang Yi: "You wait, I'll find someone who understands to take a look." "It's past nine o'clock in the evening, so let's talk about it tomorrow?" "No, you're hungry, I'll ask him to bring something to eat." I don't know who Wang Xiaolei called, anyway, within half an hour, Stephen, who was carrying two boxes of pizza and a bottle of red wine, arrived.
"Damn God!Wang Xiaolei, you must know that I have made an appointment with a beautiful lady to spend the night tonight, and you threaten me with despicable means, and the most annoying thing is to let me bring food, do you think I am your dog's leg!" Yang Yi admired Stephen for even knowing the word dog's leg, but he was in trouble when he stepped forward to take the pizza, and the two pizzas were not enough for him to eat alone!
Yang Yi asked with a bitter face: "Sister, do you have any other food at home?" Wang Xiaolei frowned and said: "I don't know, you can go to the refrigerator and take a look yourself, but don't expect me and Yanzi to cook." After speaking, he turned his head and talked to Stephen about painting, Stephen actually took out a thumb-sized magnifying glass and a pair of white silk gloves from his pocket, this guy is professional?
Yang Yicai didn't care about that, and it didn't matter to him if he said the facts of the painting, he was now more worried about what was in the refrigerator and whether he could eat it. Fortunately, the things in the refrigerator are quite complete, at least enough to make a table of meals, and the unexpected harvest is two pig's trotters, although the frozen Bang Bang is hard.
Almost every fat man has a good cooking skill, and Yang Yi's skills are passed on to his grandmother, in the words of his grandmother, he can't be hungry when he quarrels with his daughter-in-law after he knows, so Yang Yi can even make dumplings and catch dumpling skins!
Pig's trotters are delicious and nutritious, and they can be beautified, which is a good thing for all ages, but it has a difficulty that it has rough skin and thick meat, and it takes a long time to make it well. The damn system obviously didn't give Yang Yi as much time to prepare, and Brother System had already warned Yang Yi three times that if he didn't eat, he would start absorbing his physical strength.
Fortunately, the old Yang family has not only the craftsmanship, but also the stewed pig's trotters, which are also a must, the stewed pig's trotters are fat but not greasy, and the muscles and bones are crispy, as long as they are in the mouth, they seem to slide into the stomach. There is only one secret ingredient, which is steaming! First, put the pig's trotters into the steamer and steam them, and then simmer them slowly over low heat in the water and soup stock, and the taste is simply not said for an hour at most!
Taking advantage of the stewed pig's trotters, Yang Yi steamed rice, fried a simple scrambled egg with tomatoes, and fried meat with celery, braised pork is indispensable, and saw that there was still a piece of mutton in the refrigerator, so he put radish and stewed it together. When these dishes were ready, Yang Yi went to check the pig's trotters, the color had turned into an attractive orange-red, fragrant, Yang Yi took a deep breath intoxicated, and did not forget the last step, poked with chopsticks, and the skin was broken, but it had not yet reached the level of crispy bones, probably because the pig's trotters were frozen, Yang Yi decided to stew for ten more minutes.
In fact, it didn't stew for ten minutes, but after five minutes of stewing, Yang Yi couldn't stand it, Brother System, this guy didn't say much, it directly made Yang Yi feel hungry, and he felt like he hadn't eaten for a month, so Yang Yi decided to take the casserole away, if no one eats it, he plans to serve it himself!
As soon as I came out with the casserole, I saw that the three people were already seated at the dinner table, they even had the cutlery ready, and there was this half-unfinished pizza on the coffee table, it seemed that they were not going to eat it. Seeing Yang Yi coming out of the kitchen, Stephen immediately greeted him and said enthusiastically: "Dear Yang, you are so grinding, my appetite has been urging me for an hour, you really should listen to what he is saying." ”
Saying this, the sisters Wang Xiaolei and Wu Yan had already brought out the rest of the dishes from the kitchen. And as he walked, he pinched and ate with his hands, without the slightest ladylike demeanor!"Swallow, have you washed your hands!""...... If you don't eat cleanly, you won't get sick, whatever!"
As the so-called sip of soup before a meal, it does not hurt the stomach and drink the intestines, the first thing to enter is the mutton soup, the four of them took a small sip and slowly drank a small sip, this mouthful can not be stopped, Wu Yan was burned and stuck out her tongue and was reluctant to put down the bowl, and the small sip of drinking was not stopped. When a small bowl of mutton soup was finished, everyone beat one.
This one seems to have spit out all the cool air in his body, and his whole body is warm, and he sweats in an instant, but it is as comfortable as soaking in a hot spring. This is because Yang Yi put a lot of pepper, pepper was originally cold, although it is summer, but the human body will still have cold, especially people who often stay in the air-conditioned room, this bowl of soup is comfortable for the whole person, I believe that as long as you take a bath, you can sleep well.
The three of them were very satisfied with this small bowl of mutton soup, and Wu Yan was holding her lower abdomen and humming comfortably, no wonder this guy didn't have a good face all day, it turned out that a "relative" came. Compared with other dishes, everyone is more enthusiastic about two pig's trotters, especially the milky white soup, which makes people secrete vigorously when they look at their salivary glands.
Due to the different education systems, Stephen didn't know what humility was, so he directly served himself a big bowl of soup, and as for the pig's trotters, he didn't seem to be interested, and only served two pieces. As soon as he made his move, the rest of the people were not far behind, you and I were very happy, because there were only two spoons for soup, and Wu Yan didn't grab it, she could only use a small spoon to fill it a little bit to get angry.
"Wang Xiaolei, aren't you losing weight! Be careful of eating so much and die of fat!" "Get out of the way! Can pig's trotters be beautiful!" A mouthful of soup is thick and slippery in the mouth, and the unique aroma of pig's trotters reaches the nasal cavity directly through the mouth, and finally swallows it slowly, and the whole person is like swimming in a thick soup. The pork skin was directly fused with the soup when it was put in the mouth, and the hoof tendons were still a little chewy, and it went into the stomach with a lick of the tongue.
When Stephen came back to his senses, the small bowl was already empty, and Wu Yan and Wang Xiaolei sisters were watching Yang Yi help the casserole to drink, looking at the pile of bones in front of Yang Yi, Stephen deeply regretted that he didn't hold more just now!
After eating two soup dishes, the three of them not only did not feel full, but even felt that their appetite was great, each person filled a bowl of rice and ate four side dishes, and drank a sip of red wine from time to time, the taste was really wonderful.
After eating enough, I really didn't have the heart to clean up the table, and all four of them lay on the sofa and didn't want to move. "Wang, your painting is real, but I hope you can take care to preserve it, especially not to touch the water, it is not a painting, but a piece of history! That painting is tentatively estimated to be 300,000 or even higher, if you are interested in making a move, I will gladly take over." ”
Wang Xiaolei said lazily: "Don't pay attention to this painting, it's getting late now, I won't keep you, it's not good for the reputation of our two girls." "What about Yang?" Wang Xiaolei said confidently: "He is my chef!"
