Chapter 271: Noodles Like Trouser Belts

In fact, what kind of film and television works you like doesn't depend on your age, Gao Xi is almost thirty years old, and he doesn't like to watch Japanese anime and American animated movies, which is not surprising.

Jiejie chose a very beautiful magic wand for Hermione, which is a magic wand that can be recharged, and when charged, it will fluoresce, which is very beautiful at night. Although it can't be regarded as the kind of magic wand in a real magic movie, as long as it is a gift bought by Jiejie, I believe Hermione will definitely like it.

Hao Hao was a boy after all, and he also went to school, and he bought Hermione a comic book of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince.

Jiejie also bought a gift for Bobby, which is a very beautiful cowboy hat worn by children, this is Gosse's suggestion, because Gossi heard Bobby Jr. mention that he wants such a hat before, and now that Okocha has bought two small horses on the ranch, Bobby Jr. is even more idle, and this cowboy hat will definitely be liked by the little guy.

Haohao bought Bobby a figure from the Japanese manga "Naruto", which is a majestic Naruto, and Bobby likes this.

"Uncle, do you think my gift is better, or my brother's gift?" After buying the gift, Jiejie asked curiously.

"Little one, you two have great gifts. The gift itself is not important, what matters is your heart, and it is enough to have this heart. Gao Xi still came according to what his sister said, not to let the children be too extravagant and wasteful, these gifts are relatively cheap, not expensive gifts, but the mind is very important.

In ancient China, there was a saying that "goose feathers are sent thousands of miles, and the courtesy is light and affectionate", but in the modern situation, everyone is a little too much to worship money, and many good traditions are gone.

To say that he doesn't blush, in fact, Gao Xi is also very money-worshipping, he once even fantasized that he could find a rich woman to contract, and he didn't have to be so bitter in this life.

With his past qualifications, of course. That's not enough, because he's not handsome enough, not cool enough, and not personable. It's not chic and uninhibited, and I don't know what humor is, if a rich woman wants to be able to take a fancy to him, it is estimated that unless he is blind.

So Gao Xi's dream can be regarded as bankrupt.

Now, of course, he doesn't have that idea. Now that he can make a lot of money with his own ability, why should he consider letting the rich woman contract.

"Uncle, did you think Bobby and Sister Hermione would miss us when they saw our presents?" Jiejie's originally happy expression instantly turned cloudy, and she was about to cry when she saw it.

"Of course I'm going to miss you. If you want Sister Hermione or Bobby, ask your mom to call your uncle and he will help you with the video. When you get the domestic affairs done, you can come back, and you can still play with them. Gao Xi pinched his little nose and said.

"But, will they forget me and my brother?" Jie Jie asked, tilting her head.

"How is it possible, Jiejie is so cute. How could you forget. And Haohao, I heard Bobby say that you are the best little brother he has ever met, and he likes to play with you the most. Gao Xi didn't know how to coax the children, so he could only use some gentle words to comfort them, so that their hearts could feel better.

"Uncle, don't worry, I'll take care of my sister, but when the winter vacation comes, you must come and pick me up. Bobby said that their family celebrates a holy holiday every year. ”

"It's Christmas."

"That's right, uncle. It's Christmas, and I said I'm going to buy a tree to dress up in the house. ”

"I know Christmas, I know Christmas." Jiejie suddenly shouted happily: "The Christmas tree is so beautiful, I've seen it." ”

"Oh? Have you ever seen Christmas? Gossi asked, somewhat surprised.

"I watched the cartoon Peppa Pig. It was said that Christmas, Daddy Pig bought a Christmas tree, but the car couldn't fit it, so he carried it all the way home, and the family dressed up the Christmas tree very beautifully, with ribbons. And the lights, and the stars, and by the way, I know Santa Claus. Jiejie is excited when she talks about Christmas, although she has grown so big and has not had Christmas, after all, this is a Western holiday, and young people in big cities in China like this, and it is obviously very different from Christmas in the West, it is almost Valentine's Day, there is no Christmas tree, and there is no Santa Claus.

But Jiejie saw Christmas in cartoons and remembered it very clearly.

"Hahaha, if you come to the United States, you will meet Santa Claus." Gao Xi said with a smile.

Of course, Santa Claus doesn't exist, but Gosse doesn't think there's anything wrong with dressing up Santa Claus once for the sake of his niece and nephew.

"Really, uncle, will Santa Claus give us two presents?" Jiejie asked excitedly.

"Of course, when it's Christmas, you must remember to write the gifts you want on a slip of paper and give them to your uncle, who will hand them over to Santa Claus." Gao Xi said with a smile.

"Great!" Jiejie and Haohao said in unison.

After buying the children's gifts, Gao Xi went to find his mother and sister, good guys, these two really wanted to move the supermarket home, and bought a lot of things, although they were not valuable things, but there were more than 100 pieces, there were beautiful handmade denim clothes, there were also Indian-style bed sheets, curtains, and some American-made supplements, cosmetics, etc., anyway, there were a lot of them.

Gao Xi simply went through the consignment procedures at Bozeman Airport, these things may go through several turnovers, and finally be transported to the small county town of Gao Xi's hometown, according to this speed, it should be slower than Gao Xi's family, so when Gao Xi's family goes back after playing in Shangpu, it is estimated that they can just pick up the goods.

"Gao Xi, you said that if these things are lost on the way, we can do it, although the things are not expensive, but they add up to about 10,000 US dollars?" Gao Xi's mother is still a little worried.

"Mom, don't worry about it, if you really lose it, then there's no way, I'll just send it back to you, anyway, I've already bought insurance, and if you lose it, you'll be compensated." It's not that the loss of this courier has never happened, so Gao Xi doesn't have a 100% guarantee that things will be delivered, but the probability of this kind of thing is still relatively low, at least he used to shop online often, and he really hasn't encountered a lost thing.

You won't memorize words this time, will you?

Even if it is a memorization word, as he said, it should be compensated and compensated, and if it should be re-bought, it will be re-purchased, and he will send it back, just take a little more time, and it is not too much of a problem.

It's really not okay, he can fly back by himself, things can be fully packed into his space, and he is not afraid that he will lose them.

When he went back, Gao Xi passed by Okocha's ranch, and first gave the gift to Bobby, who was also crying, although he liked the gifts given by Jiejie and Haohao, but he preferred Haohao and Jiejie, and even cried and refused to let Haohao and Jiejie leave, and in the end there was really no way, Okocha said that Bobby was allowed to play with Haohao and Jiejie for a while tonight, and said goodbye.

So on the way to Hermione's house, there was an extra child in the car, and the relationship between Bobby and Jiejie and Haohao is now not an exaggeration, although the little ones have also had conflicts, and even fought, but they did not make the relationship worse because of those factors, but it is getting better and better.

When she arrived at Hermione's house, the situation was basically the same, although Hermione, the big girl, tried very hard to control her emotions and didn't want to cry, but when she saw the farewell gift that Jiejie and Haohao bought for her, she couldn't help but hug and cry.

It's the first time this girl has cried so sadly, anyway, after Gao Xi saw her, it was the first time she saw her like this, it seems that she really has a very close relationship with Haohao and Jiejie.

"Mr. West, Hermione doesn't have to go to school tomorrow anyway, so why don't you just let her go to the Yellowstone Ranch with you, let a few little guys have a good chat, and say goodbye." Eric said with a sigh.

"It looks like that's all it can be."

Gao Xi looked at this situation, if he didn't let Hermione go to the house with him, he was afraid that this little girl would also cry and wipe her tears all night, and she was really afraid that she would cry badly.

When I returned home, it was already more than twelve o'clock, and Gao Xi's father, Gao Chengde, had already cooked the meal, and made authentic Shaanzhou trouser belt noodles, which are also called Biángbiáng noodles! It is the traditional flavor noodle of the Han nationality in Guanzhong, Shaanzhou, named because of the sound of biang and biang in the production process, specifically referring to the flour made of wheat in Guanzhong, which is usually hand-pulled into long and thick noodles. It is made from fine flour, mixed with soy sauce, vinegar, monosodium glutamate, Sichuan pepper and other condiments into the noodle soup, scooped into the noodles, and drizzled with hot vegetable oil.

"Noodles are like trouser belts", "spicy is the main dish" is one of the ten strange things in Guanzhong, three words will show the people of Guanzhong in Shaanzhou who love to eat noodles and eat habits, the old Shaanxi people serve a big bowl of biangbiang noodles, and there is an old saying in Shaanzhou Guanzhong: "Oily spicy biangbiang noodles" makes people who love noodles drool. The oldest one is rolled thick and cut wide like a trouser belt, refreshing and hungry too. Mix the spicy noodles with salt and hot oil, and mix the noodles with steamed buns.

There is also a saying in the Eight Monsters of Shaanzhou that "noodles are like trouser belts".

In the past, there were no belts, and everyone used to tie their pants with that kind of wide strip of cloth, which was called a trouser belt, and the noodles were about the same width as that.

There are a lot of folklore about this trouser belt noodle, so I won't say much here, and those who are interested can go to the Internet to see it.

Gao Xi's father likes to eat trouser noodles at home, in fact, Gao Xi also likes to eat them, but after coming to the United States, he really hasn't eaten it, this time he is about to go home, Gao Chengde wants to make a meal of trouser noodles for his son and pour delicious soup, the taste is really a praise.

In terms of the technology of making trouser belt noodles, Gao Xi's father Gao Chengde is still better than Gao Xi's mother, anyway, as long as his parents quarreled when he was a child, and his mother was unwilling to cook, Gao Chengde would make trouser belt noodles. (To be continued.) )
