Chapter Ninety-Nine: The Law of Peace and Perfection in the World
At noon on the day of the official winter vacation, the Jiangsu Villagers Association held a dinner.
In fact, this hometown association, Yanni joined when she first entered the school, but there were fewer activities. The president said that there was no organization at all, and everyone had their own activities.
There had been a few small-scale events before, but Yanni had basically gone out with Martin.
After the winter vacation, some seniors in the junior year may not go back to school for a while, stay in their hometown for internship, and then go back to school to write a paper or something a month before graduation.
The president is also a junior, so she decided to organize a relatively full hometown meeting this time.
This notice was sent to all Jiangsu students two months ago, and then it will be notified again every week.
Yanni had already set aside this time.
Early in the morning, the 218 dormitory got up early, because everyone is from Jiangsu, and today's activity is everyone's own.
The president made an appointment for everyone to come to the cafeteria at 9 a.m. and make bread and dumplings.
Yanni and the others had never done this kind of work at home, so they were very curious.
The small tables in the cafeteria were made into several large tables, one of which had a large basin on it, which contained half a pot of ground pork.
There is also a table on the side, where a few senior sisters are chopping green onions.
"What do you need us to do?" Yanni went over and asked the president.
"Go and pick the shallots!" The leader gestured to a pile of shallots in the corner.
"Okay!" I can still do this kind of work.
Six people, after a while, all the green onions were selected.
Yanni took the green onion to the sink and washed it, and handed it to the fellow who cut the green onion.
Then Yanni took a few gingers and took a knife to the pool.
"Yo, I'll take the initiative to find a job!" Liu Kaitian's voice came from behind.
"Yo, senior, are you here too?" Yanni didn't look back, Liu Kaitian's voice was too familiar to her: "Danqing is watching the green onions over there." ”
"You're not going to look back?" Liu Kaitian's voice was still behind him.
Yanni turned around, and Martin stood behind her: "Hey! Why are you here too? Yanni laughed: "You also came to pretend to be our fellow countryman?" ”
"Let's experience life in Jiangsu first, but it may be a long time!" Martin stood behind Yanni with a guitar on his back.
"Musical instruments? Is this a show for food? Yanni couldn't help but laugh again.
"Actually, I invited him to come and sing us two songs, and he just happened to be willing." Liu Kaitian lost no time in interjecting.
"Alright! You can go play the guitar just in time for a pick-me-up. Yanni's ginger was almost washed, grabbed it in her hand and shook the water, and then walked to the table where the green onions were chopping.
The green onions have been cut, and the shallots have also been cut, just waiting for Yanni's ginger.
Cut all the ingredients. The chairman brought the meat bowl over, then poured all the green onions, shallots, ginger, and cooking wine into it, and beat in a few eggs.
Liu Kaitian came over with two bottles of soy sauce, poured one bottle first, and then handed the other bottle to the president, rolled up his sleeves and began to adjust the filling.
"Have you washed your hands, just adjust the filling." The president stood on the sidelines and watched and reminded.
"Washed, washed, I watched him wash three times." Yu Danqing stood on the other side and hurriedly helped.
At the other table, a senior is making noodles, ready to roll out dumpling wrappers.
Yanni leaned over curiously.
In my hometown, dumpling wrappers are all bought ready-made, and only on TV will you see northerners making dumplings and rolling dumpling wrappers by themselves.
"Do any of us roll dumpling wrappers?" Yanni asked curiously.
"Yes." The senior looked back and smiled: "I will." ”
"Me too!" Over there, Martin dropped his guitar and walked over: "I will too, and so will I." ”
"Will you too?" Yanni grabbed Martin's hand: "No matter how you look at it, you don't look like a person who can work!" ”
"I'll show you a hand!" Martin is already gearing up.
"I'll probably make dumplings." Yanni said in a not very confident tone: "But it will only cover the southern ones, and the northern ones will not!" ”
"It's okay, just don't show it!" The president appeared behind them at some point: "Thank you for coming and bringing us music!" The president reached out and thanked Martin!
"I'm just here to eat, and I'm going to play some tunes by the way." Martin also reached out and shook the chairman's hand slightly.
The president didn't stay long, and began to arrange the utensils again.
This side has been reconciled, and the senior said that he should wake up for thirty minutes.
Taking advantage of the time to wake up, Yanni rubbed to the senior's side: "Teach me, what's the trick to noodles?" ”
"No, the ratio of flour to water is 1:1, add a little salt. And then you just go with it. "It's easy for seniors to say.
"I will, you don't have to learn!" Martin's hand wrapped around Yanni's shoulder, and the senior smiled and walked away.
"Why bother me with my studies!" Yanni threw Martin a look of disgust.
"I'll teach you, I'll do all of this!" Martin's doting tone made Yanni a little dazed.
"Alas, it's time to make dumplings!" The senior shouted over there.
Yanni came back to her senses and quickly got up to make dumplings, and Martin obediently followed behind Yanni.
"Aren't you here to play the guitar? Why do you come with me to make dumplings? Yanni was ready to send Martin away, but she really didn't want Martin to see her clumsy.
"Okay!" Martin reluctantly walked away from Yanny and picked up his guitar again.
"How's your writing?" Liu Kaitian hasn't chatted with Yanni for a long time, although he usually meets Du Bai from time to time, he rarely talks about this.
"Du Bai's side is basically the same, and I estimate that half of the manuscript has not been settled." Yanni grimaced.
"Don't be afraid, if you can't do it, you can write the manuscript and let Du Bai help you polish it, so that you can save yourself the time to revise the manuscript!" Liu Kaitian helped with ideas.
"Du Bai also said so, but I think if he helps me revise the draft, it will be different from my style, and if I have time, I will try to fix it myself." Yanni also rejected Du Bai at that time.
"You're such a stubborn girl!" Liu Kaitian smiled, and then stretched out his right hand to hug Yu Danqing beside him: "It's still my Danqing, it's simple and weak." ”
Yanni glanced at Yu Danqing, and then at Liu Kaitian: "You have sprinkled too much sugar!" ”
"Haha!" Liu Kaitian smiled heartily.
Martin was playing the guitar as he looked at Yanny.
It doesn't take so many people to make dumplings, so many people who are idle have moved their stools to sit next to Martin and sing to the guitar.
Yanni and the others were also attracted by the singing, and couldn't help but look up.
"Your boyfriend is a powerful magnetic field, and there will always be a lot of people of the opposite sex around him, are you mentally prepared?" Liu Kaitian whispered to Yanni like a big brother.
"I was a little unaccustomed to it at first, but now it's much better!" Yanni remembered how embarrassed she felt at the orientation party.
"That's good, if he has a successful career, you will definitely have to bear this, if his career development is not going well, then your feeling life will not be too smooth, everything cannot be both.
Didn't Cangyang Gyatso once say, 'The world is safe and secure, and it lives up to its promises.'" ’”
"Hmm!" Yanni nodded earnestly.
