[241] Happy

"Have you ever eaten dumplings?"

By the time I put the two plates of freshly cooked dumplings on the table, Amy had already drunk more than half of the Coke and had not much of the octopus balls left.

"What's so great about dumplings!" Amy said disdainfully, "There are so many dumplings in American supermarkets that otaku use it as a substitute for instant noodles, and not only that, but the name of 'dumpling' in the United States is 'jiaozi'!" ”

That being said, Amy still tied a small dumpling with a bamboo skewer from an octopus ball, put it to her mouth and blew it, and then took three bites before eating it.

Looking at her expression, the response to the dumplings filled with three fresh shrimps was not bad.

"Huh? Don't you know how to use chopsticks? ”

I didn't think much of Amy's repeated use of bamboo skewers to poke dumplings, and many of them were poked by her, and she gave up the dumplings that she couldn't pick up.

"Why do you think I can make chopsticks?" Amy said as she poked several dumplings in a row to express her dissatisfaction, "I really don't understand that you Celestial Empire people have invented thousands of kinds of food, but the tableware only has two wooden sticks!" Isn't this a problem for people in other countries! Ahh ”

Amy slapped the table in great understanding, and the joy of Shakyamuni's epiphany becoming a Buddha may not be more heartfelt than hers.

- I see! The ancestors of your Celestial Empire must be very picky! ”

"How so?" The dumplings I was holding suddenly stopped in mid-air.

"What a stupid! You want to! The people of the Celestial Empire have made so many delicious things, but they only provide such difficult tableware, and they definitely hope that the guests who come from afar can only watch the food and not eat because the tableware is not smooth! Even if you are desperate and unaccustomed to chopsticks, you can only eat very little! ”

Huh? This is a very novel theory, but Amy, you also think too badly of the humble gentleman of our ancient Celestial Empire! Don't forget that you have this kind of bad blood in your body!

"Uh-huh...... Amy held her chin and posed like a detective, "the clues are all connected, and the truth will be revealed when you think about it!" Your Confucius once said: Friends come from afar, how happy? -- The real meaning of this sentence is this: Confucius saw that the foreigner who visited him could not make chopsticks and could not eat the food in front of him, so he covered his mouth and made fun of him!! What an evil Confucius!! ”

You've got enough! Not only the ancients who blackened the Celestial Empire, but also Confucius! Give me daoqian! At least to the Celestial Empire food daoqian you're eating!

After eating 1/3 of the dumplings on her plate and poking the rest, Amy was full.

She pushed the carton containing the octopus balls to my hand and said coldly, "I haven't finished eating this, let's give the rest to the manservant!" ”

I looked and there was only a lone octopus ball left in the corner of the cardboard box.

"There's only one left, so you like it."

I reached for the bamboo skewer tied to the octopus ball, but Amy looked at me with a malicious smile:

"It's not one, it's half! I was halfway through it and found I couldn't eat anymore......"

I picked up the octopus balls, and sure enough, I found that I had taken a small bite, which looked like the Apple logo.

Amy asked me to eat the octopus balls she had bitten, and I was supposed to play a prank on me to see how I reacted, but because my dad had been whispering in my ear lately about the miserable situation of the North Korean people, I cherished the food more and more.

So I didn't think much about it, and without hesitation, I took the half of the octopus ball into my mouth and ate it.

Amy looked surprised and a little disgusted.

"Hey! How do you eat something that someone else has bitten! How unhygienic! You have such a bad habit, if you eat something unclean and get sick, who will make me a cow and a horse! ”

I chewed and slowly eliminated the octopus balls, and then replied unhurriedly:

"It doesn't matter, it's not that I eat everyone's leftovers, in short, the ancients said: Who knows that Chinese food is hard work. - Lang Fei food is not good, I don't think you are dirty......"

"It's rude! Does a mere manservant dare to say that his master's saliva is dirty? Amy showed an offended look on her face, "Even if it's not a master-servant relationship, do you dare to think that a beautiful girl's saliva is dirty as a wild man who can't afford to be an audience!" Hmph, one day I'm going to make you drink my saliva willingly! ”

I ignored Amy's vexatious pleadings and cleaned up the rest of the disembowelments on her plate.

"You can really eat."

After leaving the dining area, Amy stared at my belly that didn't bulge, showing a disgusted expression, "You're obviously a pig with this kind of food!" ”

Hey, if you ask me about my religion, call me a pig, be careful that I am angry at the crown and carry a bag of explosives to blow up the White House! And from a genetic point of view, you scold me for being a pig and it doesn't pay off - if I'm a pig-headed brother, you're a pig-headed sister!

Within a few steps, Amy drank the Coke in her hand into an empty bottle, and I was worried about how she would refuse her if she asked for Coke again, but she didn't expect her eyes to light up and see the DQ ice cream parlor across the escalator.

"Huh? The Celestial Empire even has a branch of DairyQueen (Ice Queen)! Boy, go buy me a waffle cone! ”

Oh, so is DQ here an abbreviation for "DairyQueen"? I always thought that DQ was referring to the Japanese national game "Dragon Quest"! No wonder DQ Ice Cream doesn't sell slime cones! When I was in elementary school, I used to ask for that kind of thing from the clerk! At that time, the clerk looked at me like he was looking at the Piccolo Demon King, and now I think about it......

He handed Amy a waffle cone with three ice cream balls on it, and Amy took it with a strange surprise. Today, she has been commanding me since we met, and she has never heard even half of a complaint, which makes her feel very fulfilled.

"Hmph, the loyalty is about 50%......"

Amy muttered to herself in a voice that she thought I couldn't hear.

Seeing that I didn't buy myself ice cream, Amy asked strangely:

"Servant, don't you like to eat? It's so sweet! ”

It's not that I don't want to eat it, but I was so full of that meal that I would have a bad stomach if I asked for a whole serving of ice cream. If only it were just an ice cream ball......

Amy seemed to have guessed my thoughts, and she lifted the waffle cone as high as she could, and she was more than thirty centimeters shorter than me, but she said in a superior and benevolent tone:

"No way, you look like a Guinean refugee, I'll give you an ice cream ball!"

"But......" she added with a wicked smile, "two of the three balls have already been passed by me, so you can pick the one you haven't!" ”

She mischievously set us a background music as she spoke:

"Bang Bang ......Bang Bang

What kind of trouble is it with such a tense background sound? Eat an ice cream and just play Russian roulette!

I didn't even jump, and directly bit the ice cream ball that was facing me into my mouth, Amy was caught off guard, and the dubbing stopped abruptly.

"What a big mouth," Amy commented as she said the two balls remaining, "You're a hippopotamus, aren't you?" ”

Because I ate ice cream too quickly, I felt numb in my nose for a while, and I couldn't speak for the time being, whether I was said to be a hippopotamus or a seahorse, I could only acquiesce.

Unconsciously walked to the game center on the same floor with Amy, and only saw through a layer of glass that several groups of young people were playing games in it and were very happy.

Amy's gaze skimmed over the ice cream ball and said without particular interest:

"It's really backward, it's all outdated machines, and these games have long been eliminated in the United States."

"But...... Think of it as nostalgia! ”

Amy strode in first without consulting me.
