Chapter 234: Are You an American?
After that, Fang Yichen walked around the market again, and bought himself a second-hand bicycle, and only after a serious visit today did he know that the campus is really very big, if you rely on your legs, you will not be tired, not to mention, it is a waste of time.
And the solution to this problem for American students is to drive their own cars to school if they have money, and to ride bicycles to school if they don't.
Fang Yichen inquired, the car here is not very expensive, the new car is only about 3,000 US dollars, and the second-hand one is even cheaper, and it will be sold for a few hundred dollars.
It's just that she doesn't have a driver's license now, so she can only buy a second-hand bicycle to get around.
After walking around the market and not seeing what she needed, she rode out of the campus in her new car, ready to go to the supermarket to buy some ingredients. She didn't buy much of the ingredients last night because she had too many things to buy, and if she started the fire herself at noon today, she still needed to buy some tools and ingredients.
On the way, she pondered the lunch menu in her heart, and rice must be wanted, so she has to buy a rice cooker for a while, and the dish will be braised pork...... Well, in fact, sweet and sour pork ribs are fine, if the pork is not fresh, you can actually buy some beef, and it is not fragrant to have a beef stew with persimmons.
Fang Yichen couldn't help but suck his saliva. Hey, since the morning of her departure from Huaguo, she hasn't eaten a serious meal, and it's been five or six days, and she is now a little hungry, hungry for rice, hungry for meat, hungry for all Chinese food.
Soon arrived at the supermarket, she parked the car and went in aggressively, first pushing the cart to the electrical shelf to get a rice cooker, and then taking an iron pot that can stew vegetables, and then went to the cold snow area where meat is sold.
There are more supplies in the United States than in China, so whether it is pork or beef and mutton in the supermarket, you can buy fresh, and the price is relatively cheap, Fang Yichen went around the cold snow area, so she made up her mind and bought a piece of pork belly, fat and thin, the most suitable for braised pork, and also bought a piece of fresh brisket, after being busy for so many days, she decided to make a few more dishes for herself today.
After choosing the meat, I went to the vegetable section to choose some side dishes, and then walked out of the supermarket with a large bag.
She tied the pot to the back seat of the bike, hung the plastic bag of ingredients directly to the handlebars, and then she happily made her way back to the apartment.
Catherine had just woken up and was sitting at the table eating breakfast, which is relatively simple in Americans, mostly milk with bread, and she is the same combination today.
She was a little upset to be interrupted during the meal, and her eyes widened in surprise at the sight of her Asian roommate carrying bags of things back and forth to the kitchen.
Did this man rob the supermarket, how did he get so many things? Hey, no, she doesn't want to crowd the kitchen.
Thinking of this, she didn't care about eating, so she got up and followed into the kitchen.
"What are you doing here? The kitchen is a common area for the two of us, do you want to occupy the kitchen by yourself when you get so many things? I tell you, I won't allow it. ”
"Don't worry, I'm from the country of etiquette, I won't do such a thing as forcible robbery, and I always remember that the kitchen is a public area, and I will set aside your half for you." Fang Yichen didn't reply, standing in the kitchen and putting things away.
The packaging of the rice cooker has to be unpacked, and the inside has to be washed, and after a while, try to see if the steamed rice is delicious, and the pot, which is already the largest wok, can she find in the supermarket, the piece of beef is a little big, or stew half of it today.
Catherine didn't quite believe what she said, so she stood in the doorway and watched her clean up.
Fang Yichen was quick with his hands and feet, he finished unpacking in a few clicks, put the rice cooker on the table, put the pot on the stove, turned around and stacked the unused packages together and put them at the door, and took them out and threw them away when he went down for a while.
In the bags of ingredients on the ground, put them in the refrigerator, put them in the sink, put them in the sink, and clean up the kitchen in a while.
Catherine saw that she hadn't messed up the kitchen, so she snorted and walked back to the table to continue eating her breakfast.
After eating, she went into the kitchen with plates and cups to wash, just in time to see Fang Yichen blanching beef.
"Oh, what's that weird smell, what are you doing?" Catherine couldn't stand it and threw the plate and cup into the sink and pointed at the pot and screamed, as if she had seen some kind of biological weapon.
"The smell of beef, you can't be so big that you haven't eaten beef, then you are too pitiful." Fang Yichen ignored her, seeing that the water in the pot was already boiling, and foam slowly gathered on the water surface, she picked up the fence and quickly scooped up the beef in the pot.
"You can't brush the dishes, trouble faster, I need a pool." She was about to pour the water out of the pot, but when she looked down, she saw that there was already a cup and a plate inside.
"Oh, what are you going to do with me like this? The smell made me breathless. Catherine clutched her nose and stepped back, as if she had smelled something unusual.
Fang Yichen frowned, looking at her like that, he couldn't figure it out for a while, so he simply reached out and took out the cups and plates in the sink and put them on the stove, then picked up the pot and poured the water inside into the pool.
Then turn on the faucet and brush the pan to rinse the beef.
"No, I heard that you Americans grew up eating beef, so all of them are strong, why can't you smell beef, aren't you American?" Fang Yichen said, the movements of her hands did not stop, the pot was dry again, and then she put some oil and rock sugar into it, and she was going to fry some sugar.
"Of course I'm American." As soon as she heard that her identity was questioned, Catherine immediately became anxious.
"yes, okay, you're an American, don't get excited, you're an American who hasn't smelled beef." Fang Yichen said, but his eyes were staring at the sugar in the pot, for fear that if he didn't pay attention to the sugar in the pot, it would be mushy.
If it is paste, it will not taste good, and the meat will become bitter.
"What are you doing here?" Catherine, who is obviously not knowledgeable, has never seen the fried sugar color of Huaguo.
"Fried sugar, you American haven't even seen sugar." Fang Yichen took the time to look back at her, "Or you can't smell the smell of sugar, I heard that Americans like sweets, are you sure you are really American." ”
Repeatedly questioned about her identity as an American, Catherine shouted angrily: "You are such a nuisance, I don't want to talk to you anymore." With that, he turned around and walked to his room in a huff.
"Don't, it doesn't matter if I hate it or not, just remember to come over and brush the cups and plates you use in a while, don't you always emphasize that this is a public area, and both of us have an obligation to keep the public area clean, right?"
With a stabbing sound, the beef went down to the pot, causing a round of smoke.
