Chapter 157: Easter Eggs

Lydia's favorite is an Easter egg made in the shape of a flower, which has a mechanism on the top, and if you press it, the egg will slowly bloom and turn into a pink flower, which is very beautiful.

"It's so beautiful, it would be great if we made a bracket that could be turned and installed a few colored spotlights."

"If you like it, we'll go back to the auction and auction it."

What Li Han likes is the one that is relatively small compared to those easter eggs that are more than one meter high, and the opal shell makes it look like an ordinary egg, but it is entangled by a metal dragon, not the four-legged lizard dragon of the West, but the divine dragon of Huang Kingdom. The dragon was carved very exquisitely and meticulously, and Li Han liked it at a glance.

"Let's shoot together then, and it's good to put it in the wine cabinet in the living room."

If you can't afford these large eggs, there are a few mini eggs to choose from, but these are not cheap either, costing £3oo each. Li Han and Lydia both made up their minds to shoot their favorite big easter eggs, and the chocolate eggs and rabbits they ate at Easter bought their own chocolates two days earlier and came back to make various flavors, and this 3oo pound a mini egg is really unnecessary, so forget it.

Easter is also an Easter meal, and Li Han simply asked Mrs. Patrick to go home early and invited all his friends over. He hesitated for a moment to invite Ryan over, but thinking of Fawkes's words, he gave up anyway, and only gave a few chocolates as a holiday gift.

First, I gave everyone homemade chocolate eggs and chocolate rabbits, and then said: "I bought too many chocolates on a whim the day before yesterday, so I made dozens of eggs the size of pigeon eggs, wrapped them in tin foil of various colors and hid them in the yard. ”

Benedict asked, "What is the prize?" ”

Li Han took out a chocolate rabbit that was at least half a meter tall from the refrigerator. It's a little ugly, but at least you can see the shape of a rabbit. The rabbit also held a pudding in his hand, which was made of chocolate to look like a bird's nest, and put a few chocolate eggs: "Whoever wins, can take it home." ”

Rabbits are highly fertile and have a beautiful meaning of "vitality". Legend has it that the Easter Bunny is often on holiday eve. Carrying baskets full of beautiful eggs, candies and toys for the little ones is like Santa Claus at Christmas. But the difference is that the rabbits will hide their eggs in the garden for the children to look for the next day.

Lydia asked with some surprise, "When did you make such a big rabbit?" ”

Li Han smiled: "The day before you came, I originally bought chocolates in advance and came back to make easter eggs. I saw that I had to play a game of finding easter eggs at Easter, so I made this prize and those little easter eggs. ”

Benedict said in a cold sweat: "People usually take adults and children to draw eggs strangely first, and then come to play the next day, are you going to be a parent for all of us?" ”

Li Han also sweated, smiled dryly and waved his hand: "Oh, don't care about these details." ”

Tom misses: "When I was a child, my mother would take me to play a game of egg hunting every year, and the chocolate eggs I found at that time were always hidden and reluctant to eat. My mom lied to me that the eggs were laid by rabbits. At that time, my family happened to have a pair of rabbits, so I had to run every day to see if the rabbits laid easter eggs. Tom's parents divorced when he was 12 years old, and he lived with his father after that, and men probably didn't pay so much attention to him, especially since he went to Eton College to study in a boarding school.

Benedict hurriedly changed the topic and said: "Idle is idle anyway, let's go find it and relive our childhood." ”

So everyone went out in a hurry, leaving Li Han busy in the kitchen alone. Lydia counts as half a hostess. originally wanted to stay and help, but was coaxed out by Li Han: "I'm enough for one person, and you should play games with guests as the host." ”

As the most important holiday in the West after Christmas, and the first solemn festival when all things are rejuvenated, Easter dinner is still very important, although devout Christians commemorate the resurrection of Jesus very solemnly at this time, but for others. Eat and drink well, enjoy the arrival of spring, and the gathering of relatives and friends, is real.

When friends came to Li Han's house for dinner. Li Han has always cooked Chinese food, he doesn't know how to cook Western food, and he doesn't like to eat Western food. But today is Easter, at least the festive specialties are to be eaten, such as hot cross bread, such as fruit cake, and lamb.

Bake a bread cake or something, anyway, follow the recipe slowly, and I'm not afraid that it will be bad, even if it is broken, there will be time to start again. He had no choice but to choose the Chinese way of eating the mutton, because he was really not sure how cooked it was, and he was afraid that it would either be raw or burnt when it came out of the pot.

Because of the story of the "Lamb of God" in the Bible, lamb has to be the staple food today. Li Han chose to make a braised mutton dish, then make a chestnut stewed mutton as the main dish, and then make a stewed mutton soup. Looking at this pile of mutton, Li Han thought about it and made a stir-fried broccoli and a sour and hot Chinese cabbage as a side dish to relieve greasy. The main dish is naturally hot cross bread, and the dessert is heavy oil fruit cake.

After preparing the dishes, Li Han was in the mood to pay attention to the progress of the game outside when he started to do it. A few people in their twenties and thirties were having fun, and from time to time they could be heard shouting in the yard.

First, Benedict and Tom found an easter egg at the same time, and the two of them screamed and rushed over to grab it together, and the brothers, who were usually good and could almost wear a pair of pants, almost didn't fight for a small easter egg, and finally guessed the winner, and the easter egg was taken away by Tom. Then Gavin was coaxing the sound of go-get-out of the way, probably to see if there were any easter eggs under him. Gou Gou is already a year old, although he is not yet an adult dog, he is old enough, he refuses to move, Gavin can only use brute force to hold it away, and Li Han laughs.

Finally, it was Lydia who was shouting happily, "There are eight left, I can't take them anymore, go find a box to put them." ”

Lydia quickly ran into the house and asked, "Cold, is there any box for us to put Easter eggs?" ”

Li Han thought for a while and said: "There are a few cartons on the left side of the upper cabinet in the utility room, which are leftover after eating biscuits, and I look beautiful and I am reluctant to throw them away." "He has a slight collector's penchant, and when he sees beautiful boxes, whether they are paper, iron or plastic, he likes to keep them, even if they are completely useless.

I found four cardboard boxes in the cabinet and went out, and each of them was given one and asked them to put the easter eggs they found inside. Those big men, tall and big, their hands are at least a few circles bigger than the girls, and a few small easter eggs are held in the palms of their hands, and they don't feel much, and they only remember to count them when they are put in the box.

So Li Han heard someone shouting outside: "I'm 1o." "This is Benedict.

Gavin is as much as Lydia: "I'm eight. ”

Tom maxed: "Eleven." ”

Benedict was even more depressed: "If I was the one who won the guess just now, I would be the one with the most easter eggs." ”

The easter egg hasn't been found yet, but he has no chance to break back into the city, because Li Han is already shouting: "It's time to eat, the game is over!" ”

Benedict was the first to enter the house with his head down, holding his egg box in his hand. He didn't think about staying outside a little longer so that he could sneak another Easter egg to match Tom. Li Han said funny: "You should take something to eat, please Gougou help, its nose is smart, it is good at finding things, I may not be able to find all the hidden easter eggs, more than fifty, you have at least a dozen left in the yard, you haven't found it in the backyard, right?" ”

Tom was stunned and said, "In the backyard too?" ”

Li Han smiled evilly: "Isn't the backyard a yard?" ”

Only then did the crowd realize that he was playing with words, and when he mentioned the game earlier, he said "yard", not "front yard". And the front and back yards of No. 76 Witfield Street are not connected, and they have to pass through the house to go from the front yard to the back yard, and they didn't pay attention, so they kept going around the front yard and touching it, saying that after looking for so long a day, there are still more than a dozen that have not been found.

Li Han ran to the backyard with a wicked smile, turned on the lights in the backyard and walked around the yard, even jumped on the trees, and finally found 12 easter eggs and said: "It seems that today's champion is me, and none of you can take the rabbit away." ”

Everyone was stunned for a long time before they came back to their senses, and where they agreed, they accused him of cheating. Lydia took the lead, "You're up until you're done." ”

Benedict said, "You hide it yourself, find it yourself, cheat." ”

Tom and Gavin didn't do anything, especially Tom, he was the winner, the one who could get the prize, he came up directly and snatched the easter eggs in Li Han's hand, and each of them divided 3, saying: "Okay, I'm still the winner, the winner has a share, and I'll divide it after eating." ”

Everyone was stunned, and directly ignored the award-giver and rushed into the restaurant: "Eat and eat, but I'm hungry, today is the holiday, have a big meal?" ”

"It's so fragrant, what kind of meat is this?"

"Today Easter, you should eat mutton, right? This black is also mutton? ”

Benedict refers to the braised mutton that has been served to the table by Li Han as an appetizer, and the mutton has been knotted into three-millimeter-thick slices neatly placed on everyone's plates, and each plate is accompanied by two broccoli, black dots to black spots, which is still quite pleasing to the eye.

Li Han was just having fun with everyone, otherwise how could Tom snatch things from him. Seeing that everyone ran into the restaurant, he followed with a funny smile, and said: "You can taste it, if you like it, you can make more, this can be made a lot at once, usually a large piece in the refrigerator, cut a little as a snack, or when you don't want to fry meat, you can cut a slice of bread or sandwich, if you cut it into small slices and put it in the noodles, it's also good." ”
