Chapter 288: Compensation
Li Han is not the one who clings to the past, and since he has avenged Gavin, he will completely let go of this matter. The deceased friend only needs to be kept in his heart, if he affects his life, I am afraid that Gavin will also be uneasy in heaven.
It's just that he doesn't want to be alone yet, and goes straight to Oxford. Although Lydia has a heavy study task, countless books to read, and countless papers to write, they will eat dinner together every day, and Li Han will not be perfunctory in lunch. Lydia was too tired from studying, and when she was alone, she usually used sandwiches, fish and chips to deal with, and Li Han fed her red as soon as she came, and her plummeting weight slowly began to rise.
Li Han was distressed and guilty, she ignored Lydia too much some time ago, but fortunately she has always been understanding, if it was another girl, maybe she would have proposed to break up a long time ago. Lydia has always understood him, and although she is tired from studying every day, she still has to find time to call him to comfort him.
He looked through the calendar, Valentine's Day had long passed, and he hadn't forgotten to give Valentine's Day gifts. It's the end of March, Li Han's eyes are bright, Easter is coming, he has to think about what gift he should give her, so as to make up for his mistakes during this time.
As for the usual dinner, he cooked more and more sumptuous dinners, trying to raise Lydia back to her original level. She wasn't fat in the first place, but she was so thin that her whole body was haggard, and it made people feel distressed when she looked at it. If the Earl of Lance knew that his daughter was so thin, and he didn't know how distressed he would be, he might have to cancel his engagement to Lydia in a fit of rage.
Thinking. Li Han drove to the supermarket, bought more ingredients and came back, ready to feed his girlfriend fat, so as not to be difficult to explain when he saw his father-in-law again.
He is going to try Korean barbecue, he used to only cook Chinese food, occasionally fried a steak or something, but recently he suddenly wanted to learn a little bit about the cuisine of various countries. Even if there is only kimchi, there is a delicious barbecue and slate tofu, and there is no need for him to confine himself in a circle.
Beef marinated in a sauce for hours, pork belly with a suitable amount of fat, and tender lamb. Assorted mushrooms and a few cold dishes made by yourself. There are not many varieties, but the portions are full. The stove is specially found charcoal stove, and the good charcoal burns without any smoke at all, and it is accompanied by fragrant barley tea and lettuce with water droplets.
Lydia sat at the fire. watched Li Han take a clip and take a slice of roasted beef. I soaked the sauce. He wrapped the meat in another lettuce leaf before handing it to her: "Try it, I made my own sauce." It probably won't taste as good as the one in a Korean barbecue restaurant. ”
The beef is very tender, almost melt-in-your-mouth, the sauce is moderately salty, and the umami of the beef is completely raised, and with the refreshing lettuce, Lydia squints happily. She struggled to swallow the food and gave a thumbs up: "It's amazing, it's delicious." ”
Li Han turned over a slice of roasted pork belly, and wrapped a slice of roasted pork belly that was browned on both sides for Lydia: "Try this again." ”
Pork belly is another different taste, not as tender as beef, and it has not been marinated, but the fatty part is roasted to melt in the mouth, and the lean part is not firewood at all.
Thinly sliced mushrooms are wrapped in tin foil and baked on a grate until browned, and when the foil is torn, the fresh aroma of the mushrooms comes to the nostrils, and just smelling it makes the mouth water. There is also a special stone pot, after heating, put the whole piece of tofu, then pour hot sauce, and use the residual heat to fry the tofu until one side is browned, fragrant and spicy, full of bean flavor.
A bite of barbecue, a bite of mushrooms, and a piece of tofu, served with barley tea, made Lydia very satisfied. She smiled: "Sure enough, it's better for you to be at home, am I fat again?" Don't dislike me, I haven't had time to exercise lately. ”
Li Han smiled: "You are fat and thin, you are good-looking, my body is watched by me, I can't help with studying, logistics can still be guaranteed, I guarantee that you eat and drink well, sleep well, study with enough energy, and get a degree." ”
"Sure enough, virtuous." Lydia is now very fluent in Chinese, and even knows the joke of virtuousness.
Li Han sighed: "Now the man who is not virtuous can no longer find a wife, when will you marry me, dear?" ”
Lydia laughed, stretched out her hand to hook his chin and said, "Beauty, go home with your master, and let you eat and drink spicy food." ”
Li Han sweated profusely, and he really couldn't show her domestic films, which was all bad.
As soon as she finished eating, Lydia drank tea and watched Li Han clean up the mess, and suddenly said, "I'm going to eat soup dumplings and fritters and small wontons tomorrow morning." ”
"Okay, what do you want for the ravioli?"
"Celery pork, the pork with shepherd's cabbage last time is also good, but the shepherd's cabbage is not easy to buy." Lydia wanted to drool at the thought of the texture, even if she was already full, she couldn't resist the temptation of the wontons with shepherd's cabbage. "There is also fruit fishing, tomorrow I will make fruit fishing and bring it to school as a drink."
In fact, the main body of the fruit is coconut milk, and then put diced fruits and sago dew, Li Han watched the recipe last time, and Lydia liked it very much. She already loves to eat fruits, plus mellow coconut milk, she directly uses it as water to drink, and she can drink one liter a day.
"No problem, you have to like it, I'll make it every day in the future." This thing is not troublesome, it is always a good thing to eat more fruits, coconut milk and sago dew are also good things, if you like to eat, you will naturally make more, Li Han himself likes it.
It's almost Easter in a blink of an eye, Li Han bought a lot of chocolates and came back to make easter eggs, in addition to eating them himself, he also had to give them away. However, Lydia didn't have time to participate in the Easter event, and the writing of the essay was dark, and the outline alone was revised many times, and there were hundreds of books for reference.
Making chocolate eggs has become Li Han's job alone, he has been in the UK for three years, he is a veteran, and making an easter egg is no longer difficult for him. However, in order to surprise Lydia, he still spent a lot of effort and made a special trip back to the castle.
It's not that I'm going back to the big chefs to help, but it's taking a long time to make this easter egg, and if I do it in that small house in Oxford, there will be no surprises, and sooner or later I'll be bumped into by Lydia. In order to make this easter egg, he worked alone in the kitchen for three days, used up dozens of pounds of chocolate, wasted an unknown number of pounds, and then it was completed, and secretly transported it back to Oxford on Easter morning.
