Volume 67 Straw Hats

After more than a year of getting along, we have become more familiar with the female classmates in the class, and the embarrassment of meeting and needing to think about whether it is our own class is no longer there. In order to further strengthen the relationship between the students, the class committee members planned to have a dinner together after discussion.

I remember the last time the whole class ate together was not long after the start of the freshman year, in order to let everyone get acquainted with each other, Da Biao's class leader and the secretary of the Youth League led us to eat boiled fish together, which was also the first time I knew what boiled fish was. However, at the beginning, I only had a green bow girl in my eyes, so I didn't show much enthusiasm in the class activities, and I was satisfied that I just expected to meet her face. After eating, everyone dispersed, and they were not particularly impressed by the others.

For this class dinner, my mentality is a little different, usually I am a relatively positive one in class, and everyone often takes my notes, plus the interaction on everyone, my popularity is okay. In addition, having a group activity can also make our three-point life more colorful. After a heated discussion among the class committee and activists, the class leader finally decided to go on an outing for barbecue.

I don't have much confidence in my cooking skills because at home I cook my own noodles at most, and it's not my turn to cook, but barbecue is a different story. During the Chinese New Year, I organized high school reunions, family outings, etc., and I was responsible for cooking, and the general feedback was that it tasted good. This is another opportunity to perform in front of the whole class, how can I not grasp it? Therefore, I was more active in this group activity, and took the initiative to contact the girls and discuss with them the ingredients and tools for barbecue. As time went by, they began to look forward to tasting my craft.

Gatherings are different from classes, and naturally they should focus on leisure and entertainment, so I thought that the boys in our dormitory should also take this opportunity to show off their "style" in front of the girls, and there should be some unique labels. At that time, the whole dormitory was already OPfan.,Everyone is either your computer or my computer.,This gave me an idea.:Straw hat.。 Watching Luffy and his friends pursue their dreams on the great voyage, the picture of several people in the dormitory wearing straw hats posing together for photos instantly appeared in my mind, and after thinking for a while, I opened Taobao......

After browsing more than 20 pages, I finally found a store with a relatively affordable price that looked more like the straw hat Luffy was wearing, and after a symbolic bargain with the seller, I told everyone what I thought. Lin Ye and Eric agreed, and Da Biao's squad leader didn't refuse when he saw that I was so interested. Lao Zhao was busy dealing with the zombies on the screen, and he didn't have extra time to think, so he made a "uh-huh" sound, I thought he also acquiesced, so I placed an order. Accustomed to free shipping in Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai, so the seller would rather die than free postage operation is very hot, after the final negotiations, the seller finally gave each hat a dollar cheaper, which is also considered to let me keep the last stubbornness.

Waiting for the courier and preparing the barbecue at the same time, my biggest fear is that when it comes to the barbecue day, my straw hat has not yet arrived, so it will be in vain. But it's okay, although the Northeast does not have free shipping, but the logistics system is still relatively developed, and the hat was delivered three days before the barbecue. After receiving a call from the courier, I rushed to the library and looked for my straw hat at the centralized delivery and collection point.

After taking them back to the dormitory, I carefully unpacked them, thinking that the straw hats I had bought at such a high price must look handsome to wear, and when I took them all out, I was dumbfounded: isn't this just an ordinary straw hat dyed yellow and added with a red satin? I couldn't do it, but Lin Ye and Eric were very active, and as soon as they took the straw hat and put it on, they took a picture of the imitator in the mirror. Da Biao's squad leader reacted similarly to me, and finally accepted the cruel reality like me. Lao Zhao was still addicted to computer games and didn't pay much attention to what was happening.

The "apprentice" Aman and their dormitory are also very attentive to this class activity, and took the initiative to contact barbecue tools and buy barbecue ingredients. According to the work arrangement, Oman and I were the purchasing team (girls without green bows), and we went to the vegetable market to purchase first; Da Biao's squad leader went to contact the owner of the rental barbecue grill and asked them to send it to the designated location; The secretary of the regiment led the team to the destination; Lin Ye took Lao Zhao Eric to buy drinks, snacks, melons and fruits. The girls give us boys special care and are allowed to bring "dependents".

When I came to the vegetable market, I led the people in the Omani dormitory to buy marinated lamb skewers, beef skewers, and then regular items such as chicken wings and ham sausages according to the logic of barbecue in the past. Aman stuffed a bunch of flesh and bones into the basket, and I immediately took it out, and she was a little puzzled. In fried chicken restaurants, flesh and bone are hot sellers, loved by all ages, why do I hate them so much? Could it be that I don't like to eat? No, with my experience in barbecue, I can say responsibly: this thing wasn't made for barbecue at all. First of all, the defrosted sauce is particularly prone to sticking to the grill net; Secondly, its bamboo skewers are very short, which is especially hot for traditional Chinese barbecue grills; In the end, the bamboo skewers that are obviously very short are covered with flesh and bones, and the section close to the gripper is particularly difficult to cook.

Seeing that I was right, and Aman cast adoring glances, my vanity was once again satisfied. Just as I was about to tell more about barbecue, Oman weighed ten catties of tenderloin from the eldest brother who bought some meat. I wanted her to leave, but the big brother who sold the meat had already taken up his knife and cut the tenderloin into finger-thick slices.

"What's the matter? How do you make pot-wrapped meat? I wondered.

"It's baked and eaten, it's delicious with sauce!"

"How do you bake this thing?" I asked curiously.

"Oh, you'll see when you get there!"

After buying the ingredients, we took a taxi and went straight to the destination, and when we arrived, the others were already waiting, and while we were waiting for us, the Da Biao squad leader also set up a tent. Seeing the arrival of a few of us, everyone rushed forward to help as if they were looking forward to a great drought.

The first step in grilling is to burn charcoal, and as we all know, organic charcoal is vibrant, but it is extremely difficult to burn it red. At this time, the role of Lin Ye and Eric is reflected, as smokers, the lighter will definitely not leave their bodies, and with the alcohol block, it is only a matter of time before the charcoal is burned red. Finally, when the last piece of alcohol was about to run out, the charcoal fire finally began to "give strength".

With the fire, everyone couldn't wait to get the ingredients for the barbecue, and soon there was no place on the grid rack, and it seemed that there was no chance for me to perform. But I'm not worried, I've really experienced too much barbecue, and everyone likes to grill themselves at the beginning, and they can't last long. I simply went with Da Biao's squad leader to drink and eat peanuts.

At first, we were not too embarrassed to wear straw hats, but Wawa and Lin Ye's girlfriend kept wearing them for pictures. After drinking some wine, my face turned red and I didn't want to lose face, and we began to "show". We wore straw hats and imitated the various movements of the seven-member group in the anime, and let Wawa help us take pictures as much as we wanted, and for a while, the straw hats became a beautiful landscape, and the girls began to borrow straw hats from us to take pictures. It was also a little reassuring to me, but at least the hat came in handy.

Without hats, we were not ashamed to pull the girls in the class to take a group photo, and I especially wanted to take a picture with Sister Shishi. Sister Shishi brought her friends along, both girls are 175 tall, except for Da Biao squad leader and Mr. Liu, we can only look up to them. I just thought about using their height to set off my shortness, and then post it to everyone to have fun, and I even thought of the name of the photo, which is called "self-inflicted humiliation". It's a pity that Lin Ye and I have a heart, and my thoughts are surprisingly consistent with mine, and after getting my girlfriend's consent, I sat between Sister Shishi and the two of them, and let Wawa take a photo. After that, Eric did the same. After the shooting, they were extremely excited, looking at the photos in the camera and laughing. After only three years, I gave up on my idea.

At this time, the female classmates have become a little tired of the barbecue and have withdrawn from the battle, so it is time for me to perform! Aman had already reserved a place for me, and I was already telling her how delicious my grilled chicken wings were, so she was looking forward to it, and I was curious about how she would eat the tenderloin, so we each worked on the same stove.

The best quality of grilled chicken wings is golden on both sides and some brown feeling, the heat and timely reverse are the key, I am more in pursuit of quality, so the roast is very slow, and the girls on the side can only swallow saliva. Oman's barbecue was almost done, and she was seen holding a grilled fish net, spreading the tenderloin in the middle, and turning it over the fire from time to time. The meat quickly turned from bright red to white, and then slightly yellowed again. Looking at the tempting barbecue, my saliva swallowed unconsciously.

"Is it just that?" I try not to let the saliva come out.

"Of course not, it's going to be brushed with barbecue sauce, like this." While brushing the meat with sauce, Aman patiently explained to me, "Okay, let's eat!" ”

"What do you eat?" I'm a little stupid.

"Haha, take chopsticks!" Aman smiled and handed me a pair of chopsticks.

I took a bite, the meat was roasted crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, the meat was full of juice, and the salty, sweet and spicy flavor given by the barbecue sauce made the meat full of layers, isn't this an enlarged version of Northeast barbecue? While I was obsessed with Omani barbecue, I completely forgot about the chicken wings I was grilling, and I missed the best time to turn them over, and the taste and taste were greatly reduced.

Lin Ye on the side also participated in the barbecue, he also grilled chicken wings, but unlike me grilling on several skewers, he took a grilled fish net, put the chicken wings full of oil and put them directly on the grill. The grease dripped onto the charcoal and caused an open flame, so Lin Ye turned the chicken wings and fanned the fire with a fan, which was really imposing. The girls who had been sitting around me gathered around him, because they all felt that there was no hope for me here, and only Aman was still silently waiting. Of course, in the end, I didn't let her wait.
