Li Han's novice dinner Benedict still couldn't eat it, he has two interviews, an event and a cover to shoot today, and he can't tell what time he can rest at night. And not only today, he doesn't expect to rest in the next few days, and he has to participate in various programs to promote his new movie.

"You better have a good rest, lunch and dinner I think you can order takeout, I have a few takeaway calls here, and they all taste good." Benedict said and left a few phone numbers and hurried away.

Well, anyway, I at least made a good friend after coming to the UK. Li Han saw Benedict leave, and suddenly felt that there was nothing wrong with leaving his hometown, and there was nothing wrong with starting over in a new place, making new friends, and adapting to a new environment.

Moreover, the air in London is much better than in City B.

Li Han, who was idle, began to pack up the things that needed to be cleaned up, clothes and bedding were neatly folded and sent to the donation center, and items that were too personal were either packed and sealed in boxes or thrown away directly. It took him a lot of time and energy, and it took a few days for Benedict's busyness to come to an end for the time being.

The house itself is not bad, and the first floor is used as a clinic, so I simply didn't redecorate, I just went to the mall to buy some bedding and other things, and bought a few paintings to hang in the master bedroom.

The next work is the garden. According to Li Han's observations, the neighbors generally trimmed the gardens themselves, and his uncle's family probably wouldn't have hired someone to do this work before. So Li Han also plans to follow the local customs, anyway, it's not a very troublesome thing, and it will be better to invite someone if he is impatient in the future.

The garden supplies in the utility room are still very complete, first repair the lawn, this is a bit troublesome, he will not use the machine, and he has to learn. But fortunately, it's not a complicated thing, and you'll be able to figure it out after a while, but you still practice a lot when you actually do it. Then weeds are removed and the flowers are pruned.

When I was researching how to treat this camellia plant, I suddenly heard someone ask, "The weather is really good today, right?" ”

Li Han raised his head, it was a lady in her fifties, wearing a very expensive coat at first glance, her brown head did not show a trace of white, her temperament was elegant, and she could see that she was a beauty when she was young. Although Li Han hadn't spoken to her, he also knew that she was Mrs. Ford, the mistress of the next-door neighbor's house, and he stood up with a smile and said, "Mrs. Ford, good afternoon." Rare good weather, so I came out to bask in the sun. He pointed to the fruits of his labor a little shyly, "It's the first time I've done this kind of work, and I'm clumsy." ”

Mrs. Ford covered her mouth and laughed: "For newbies, you've done a great job, and it will be nice to do it a few more times...... Oh, these camellias are amazing, and Catherine loves them so much. ”

Catherine is the name of Li Han's mother, a third-generation immigrant whose parents did not give her a Chinese name.

"I hope I can take care of them like my aunt," Li Han said not very confidently, "It seems that I have to check some information." ”

Mrs. Ford looked at him kindly: "Yes, of course, we all have to keep learning. But if it's camellias, I also planted a few in the yard, and you can come to me if you need to. ”

"Madam, you are such a kind person, thank you so much, you don't know, I have been worried that I will raise them to death." Li Han was pleasantly surprised and thanked her all the time. Of course, he had already seen a few camellias in Ford's house.

The two of them started gardening, and as their thoughts dissipated, they talked for more than an hour, until Mr. Ford drove by, and Mrs. Ford exclaimed, "I forgot to make dinner." ”

Li Han laughed and invited, "It's my fault, Mrs. Ford, I've delayed you too much." As a sign of my apologies, can I invite Mr. Ford and you to my house for dinner? I can cook Chinese food. ”

"No," instructed Mrs. Ford, who had already regarded the young man who had just arrived in England as her own child, "you know, if you want to invite someone as a guest, you must put the invitation in their mailbox at least a week in advance. ”

"Oh, okay. If I want to have a pie duì and invite the neighbors to the dinner at home, also seven days in advance? Seeing Mrs. Ford nodded, Li Han asked inch by inch, "I don't know these neighbors around me either, Mrs. Ford, can you please help me make an invitation list?" ”

Mrs. Ford agreed angrily and funny, and Li Han happily hugged her and exclaimed, "Madam, please wait a moment." He ran into the house as quickly as he could, and went downstairs with a bottle of wine, "Madam, this is a wine made in your own house, please taste it with Mr. Ford." ”

It was wolfberry wine, which was brewed when my grandfather was there, and there was not much left. He also makes wine, but the taste is always not as good as that of his grandfather's, but he can still drink it by himself.

Mrs. Ford quickly helped Li Han make a list, and he went to buy invitations and came back one by one, handwriting invitations and sending them to the mailbox. There were not many people, so there were four neighbors on each side, and he himself added Benedict.

Several neighbors quickly replied, agreeing to come and participate in the pie. He hadn't seen Benedict in days, and the big stars were always busy. So in order to avoid that he would not see the invitation, I deliberately sent him another message. Benedict's message was quick to reply: "It's a pleasure to receive your invitation, I'll bring a friend over that day, who also lives on Witfield Street, and you'll probably have heard of him." ”

Li Han hurriedly dialed his phone: "Benedict, I think I should make up an invitation to your friend, so that it is polite." “

"Okay, Han, Tom said it was a pleasure to accept your invitation, and I will write you the name and address."

Benedict is talking about Tom Hiddleston, who played Loki, the evil god of Thor, and is also a very famous actor, and Li Han now knows that he also lives on this street.

In a blink of an eye, on the day when he was going to open a duì, Li Han went to buy two large bags of food early and came back, as well as a few bottles of red wine, whiskey and brandy.

Only one person has to prepare dinner for 9 people, which is really a big project, fortunately, he used to cook often at home, and for a few years even the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner was also made by him, and his mother who was a professor of Chinese painting was incompetent in housework, and could not count on her at all, and later his brother only had a helper after he got married, but although his sister-in-law was not bad, her cooking skills could only be said to be good.

In fact, his cooking skills are not very good, and he can still take home cooking, don't expect a big meal or something, and it is also a little difficult for him to make appetizers and desserts according to the Western food model, so he simply cooks Chinese food, anyway, everyone knows that he just came to the UK.

I made tomato scrambled eggs, palace fried chicken, braised pork, three common foreigners' favorite dishes, and mixed a vegetable salad, the soup is a corn rib soup stewed for three hours, the staple food is egg fried rice, plus a large pot of dumplings, and the dessert after the meal is a pudding bought in a dessert shop. He was going to divide the meals, and the dishes would be enough for the guests.

The guests were all neighbors, and they all arrived about 1o minutes later than the agreed time, and they were only one or two minutes apart from each other. Benedict was the first to arrive, and with him came a handsome man who was a little taller than him, with a beard and a short caramel color, and except for those eyes, he couldn't see anything in common with Loki.

"Good evening, Mr. Hiddleston, it's a pleasure to meet you." Li Han stepped forward and smiled, "Benedict, good evening, today is a good day, the weather is very good." ”

"Good evening, Mr. Lee," said Tom, "please call me Tom." ”

"Okay, Tom, please call me cold. Please sit inside, I'm the only one in the house, and I'm sorry for the poor hospitality. ”

Benedict waved his hand: "You don't have to worry about us, we will take care of ourselves." ”

Li Han didn't have time to be polite to them anymore, the guests had already arrived one after another. hurriedly invited all the guests into the house, fortunately, Benedict was understanding and helped greet the guests, and Li Han also took this opportunity to recognize all the neighbors.

To his right were Martin and Bella Mason, both in their seventies, with almost all of their heads silver-white. Mr. Mason, who had previously owned a small trading company, is now retired and the company is taken over by his son. Mrs. Mason was a violinist, elegant and charming old lady.

Lieutenant Colonel George Brown was a stern veteran who had previously served in the Royal Navy, his wife had died more than a decade earlier, and only one daughter had married to the United States and came back to see him once a year.

The guests all arrived, and everyone chatted in the living room for a while before being introduced to the dining room by Li Han. Thanks to Mrs. Ford's thoughtfulness, she even helped with the seating chart at the back of the guest list. Domestic guests generally sit together as a family, but the Western habit is to separate them, according to a man, a woman, and a second guest.

Today's dinner is not a priority, except for him, the host, the guests are arranged by age, fortunately the table in the restaurant is large enough. Several of the dishes he made were quite popular, especially the braised pork, which he stewed for more than three hours, which was sweet and sweet, and melted in his mouth, especially the female guests, who were all smiling.

"Cold, this red ...... How is braised pork made? Mrs. Ford asked with interest. Her youngest daughter, Ariel, 16 years old, nodded her head from the side, she also loved this sweet meat, if her mother could learn it, she would be able to eat it often in the future.

"It's very simple, you just need to buy fat and lean pork, and then ......," Li Han said the steps, and he saw that several housewives were silently memorizing the recipe, and even Benedict and Tom, who were bachelors, were very interested.
