Li Huainan and Liu Xiaoyan couldn't help but hesitate when they looked at such a large number of people in front of them. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Although they have been in the United States for nearly ten years, there is naturally nothing strange about white people, but they are always the older generation of Chinese/Chinese in their bones, and if it is not necessary, they will not go to foreigners' parties, and it is difficult for them to integrate into the circle of foreigners. This is also the most obvious difference between the first generation and the second and third generations of overseas Chinese. Not to mention that Texans are inherently xenophobic.

Now, seeing that all the bustling in front of the main house are foreign faces, the two of them are inevitably timid.

Lu Li strode up with a bright smile on his face, "Uncle Li, Aunt Liu, how is it, it's easy to find here, right?" I was thinking just now, should I ask a friend to come over to pick you up." ”

"It's not hard to find, there are only a few simple roads here, follow the direction, it's clear at a glance. Li Huainan still came back to his senses first, and then pointed to the black pickup truck behind him, "What about the car? Parking there, is it okay? Or do you want to park in the parking lot of the ranch?"

"Don't worry about the car. Lu Li turned around and greeted, "...... Cole. But before the words came out, my head couldn't help but turn - what I just said was in Chinese, and it was really awkward to suddenly call the name of "Cole" in Chinese, and then it was converted into English, "Cole, can you help park that black pickup truck in the back?"

"No problem. Ke Er walked out from behind the crowd, Li Huainan wanted to say a few polite words, but Ke Er walked up with a smile, "Welcome to Yundian Ranch, you are Li and Liu, right? I have to thank you very much!"

Li Huainan could feel the other party's enthusiasm and kindness, so he didn't pretend anymore and handed over the key to the other party, "Thank you." ”

"Small meaning. Cole took the key, walked in the direction of the car, then turned around, winked at Lu Li, and said with his mouth, "Churros!" Because making fritters is too troublesome, Lu Li has not been bothered to start after making them last time, obviously, Kele has been thinking about it.

Lu Li rolled his eyes in response, Li Huainan saw that Lu Li got along with them very happily, and couldn't help but relax a little, "Why did he thank us just now?" If they have a choice, they still like to speak Chinese, even if they have lived outside for many years, in their bones, they are still Chinese/Chinese people who do not forget their homeland.

"You've brought me so much material, and it's all in their stomachs. Lu Li's explanation made Li Huainan and Liu Xiaoyan laugh.

Liu Xiaoyan finally came back to her senses at this time, "I thought it was a small party, if we knew that you were inviting all the neighbors next door, we wouldn't have come, so as not to disturb you." ”

"Aunt Liu. I'm inviting friends over for a party today. Lu Li took the initiative to walk over, stood beside Liu Xiaoyan, and emboldened her, "You are the most important friends since you came to Texas, how can I not invite you?" Lu Li's words made Liu Xiaoyan laugh, "Besides, you should know better than me how xenophobic people here are." So, all of the people who are willing to come here today are my friends, and they are very open-minded, so you don't have to worry. ”

Lu Li knew what they were worried about, and this explanation really made both of them relax a little.

"Fourteen, aren't you going to introduce us to it?" Lily, who was hospitable, took the initiative to say hello, "Good evening, I'm Lily." She took the initiative to wave her hand at Liu Xiaoyan, "Recently, I've always been looking for good food here, and I heard from Fourteen that your craftsmanship is even better than his." I'm going to study hard tonight. ”

Lily's enthusiasm made Liu Xiaoyan relax, and said modestly, "I'm just cooking some home-cooked food." ”

Lu Li stepped forward and gave them a brief introduction, and then he turned his head to look at Li Huainan, "Uncle Li, we are making dumplings, but obviously the progress is seriously lagging behind, I don't know if you can help?" Originally, you are guests and should not work, but I, the half-baked master, don't look very reliable, if you want to eat, you have to help." Lu Li said these words in English, and everyone laughed.

Li Huainan also smiled, "The dumplings are not simple, come, Uncle Li will show you both hands." Lu Li didn't treat them as outsiders, but like real friends, which made their last trace of nervousness resolved.

Lily was there pulling Liu Xiaoyan and asking about the skills of making dumplings. Lu Li's eyes collided with Lily, and he said with his mouth, "Thank you." Lu Li knew that Lily was taking the initiative to help him out of the siege.

Lily winked at Lu Li, and then also said with her mouth, "Fritters." This suddenly made Lu Li clap his hands and laugh.

"Fourteen, am I right to wrap it like this?" Chloe walked over, holding a broken dumpling in her hand, looking ...... It's terrible.

Lu Li looked at it seriously, "Excuse me, are you dealing with corpses?"

Chloe raised her hand and gave Lu Li a punch in the arm, without mercy, Lu Li laughed hehehe, "It's not a very difficult thing, you just imagine it as if you are making burritos, the difference is that burritos don't need to be glued together, while dumplings do." Of course, there is also a lot of difference in size. ”

While speaking, Lu Li picked up a dumpling wrapper and demonstrated, "Look, you need to use your fingertips and fingertips, you don't need to use too much force, just be natural." ”

Chloe did the same, but apparently there was too much meat filling, and the whole dumpling bulged up as if it was about to burst at any moment, and the juice that came out didn't help.

Lu Li stretched out his hand and held Chloe's right hand, and then tinkered with it with his left hand, "If you're not sure, you'd rather have less meat filling." At least we can still eat meat, it's better than the whole dumpling falling apart, only the dough remains. Lu Li looked down at Chloe, "You wouldn't want to eat pizza dough without meat, would you?"

Chloe couldn't help but laugh, looking at Lu Li's slender fingers, delicately gluing the dough, the juice that flowed out made the dough easier to glue, and in a blink of an eye, the dumplings that looked like they were about to fall apart were successfully formed, which made Chloe couldn't help but show a surprised look, "God, what did you do just now? Why did I make a mess, the same situation is completely different in your hands?"

"I thought you were serious. Lu Li's annoyed voice made Chloe laugh again.

Raising his head, Chloe accidentally crashed into Lu Li's dark eyes, the bright eyes with a faint smile, as if the stars were all in those eyes, thrilling and intoxicating;

Two blush crept up Chloe's cheeks, poof, poof, the sound of her heart pounding her chest was so obvious that she was about to break through the restraints.

Lu Li couldn't help but be a little stunned, Chloe's emerald green eyes rippled with silky ripples, sparkling reflecting the whole world, pink cheeks added a touch of shyness to her sassy temperament, and the fresh and dripping lips bloomed with the luster of cherries, full and seductive, making people can't help but fantasize about the softness and temperature of the lip petals.

The scorching breath pulled and tangled in the air, faintly shortening the distance between the two people little by little, and there was a thumping sound on the eardrums, like thunder, like a fish jumping, blushing and heartbeat, and I couldn't help but feel a little dry mouth.

Closer, closer.

"Fourteen!" Cole's loud voice came, "the car is parked, don't you want to cook another dish next, is there anything I need to prepare......" The voices behind it were already indistinct, but it was enough, and the gong voice burst into his ears, and in an instant all the reverence and throbbing were blown away.

Both of them hurriedly avoided their sight, pretending that nothing had happened, and looked in other directions in embarrassment; the heat of the palms of their palms came, and the two of them hurriedly separated their palms, and the distance was slightly widened, and the cold air rushed in, cooling down from the extreme heat, and a layer of goosebumps appeared on their arms.

Chloe was secretly annoyed, she usually doesn't have such a twisted personality, what the hell is going on today, she looks like a pretentious coquette, so abnormal.

"You've got flour stuck to your nose. Lu Li's deep voice sounded slowly like the strings of a cello, Chloe raised her head suddenly, and then subconsciously wanted to wipe her nose with her hands, but she didn't want Lu Li to hold her wrist again, and the chuckle overflowed, "Your hands are also covered with flour." ”

Chloe looked at her right hand, and suddenly wanted to burrow into the ground in embarrassment, twisted her wrist away from Lu Li's palm, and then held her wrist awkwardly, at a loss.

"I've always wondered how dumplings are made by hand, but why do people always have a way to put their faces on them? I used to think it was made up in movies and television. Lu Li finished speaking seriously, and then left Shi Shiran, "I need to go and get busy with the next dish, in order not to make you hungry." ”

Chloe stood in place, shouting inwardly: Chloe, say something, quickly, say something, fight back, taunt back, ridicule back, but the brain is like a paste, stunned and didn't think of anything, and then blurted out a sentence, "I don't know either." ”

After saying that, Chloe wanted to strangle herself with her own hands, "I don't know"? What kind of counterattack is this? Sounds like a coquette...... As soon as the word coquettish got into her head, Chloe froze completely in place, her flesh numb and uncomfortable. She decided to set herself on fire and die on the spot, and tonight would be an absolute night of shame for her.

"Haha. Lu Li's hearty laughter came along the wind, and Chloe couldn't help but grit her teeth, "Damn Fourteen!"
