Chapter 141: Meal Time
"Huh?" Erin blinked.
"You helped me drive the boat for so many days, and also helped me cook, I naturally want to express my gratitude, let's go and pick out two sets of clothes in a while, as long as you dress up beautifully, you won't be afraid of not finding a boyfriend." Leah chuckled as she covered her mouth.
Erin blushed and whispered, "IāI didn't want to find a boyfriend so soon......"
"Even if you don't have a boyfriend, don't you want to dress up nicely? ā
"Can you really buy me new clothes?" said Erin, looking longing, she had never worn a nice outfit since she had grown up in a pirate base.
"Well, since I said so, I definitely won't lie to you. Leah nodded, then rolled her eyes, shook her index finger and said seriously: "There is one thing that must be made clear first, I gave you clothes just to express my gratitude, and it can be regarded as a celebration of the two of us becoming friends, but there is nothing wrong with it, you don't have any misunderstandings about me." ā
Erin's face turned even redder when she heard Leah's words, because she did wonder if Leah had some bad intentions in giving her clothes.
Leah could see her inner activity from the change in Erin's expression, and couldn't help but sigh softly, so it seemed that her image in Erin's heart had been basically fixed.
Next, Leah returned to her **, and the two little ones who had been tired for many days fell asleep one after another, and it was not until dusk that they woke up one after another.
When Erin woke up, she found that Leah had no sign of attacking her while she was asleep, and she relaxed a little, and it seemed that she had really wronged Leah.
After a good night's sleep, they both felt their stomachs rumble with hunger, so they left the hotel and went to a restaurant not far away, where Leah ordered two steaks, some snacks and snacks, and two glasses of juice.
It was obviously the first time that Erin had eaten in a restaurant like this, and she had been looking around curiously.
"Leah, what's a steak?"
After the waiter left, Erin asked in a low voice.
Leah was stunned for a moment, she didn't expect Erin to even know what a steak was, but when she thought about the environment in which she grew up, this kind of thing was normal.
"Steak is a kind of food made of beef, depending on the method, the meat used also comes from different parts, such as the T-bone steak I just ordered, the meat used comes from the upper loin of the cow, it is a piece of backbone meat with a backbone, because the steak is marinated with a lot of spices, so the taste is delicious, and you will know after eating it. ā
Speaking of what to eat, Leah suddenly came to her senses, and she suddenly remembered that she hadn't tasted a delicious steak in a while, because she couldn't help but look forward to the mealtime for a while.
"And what is this?" Erin picked up the knife and fork on the table a little dazedly, "Is this cutlery? But I've only seen spoons......"
Leah opened her mouth, then smiled helplessly, and continued to explain patiently: "This is a fork, that is a knife, when you eat steak for a while, you have to hold a fork in your left hand to fix the steak, and then use the knife in your right hand to cut the beef, as long as you are proficient, you can quickly cut off the beef, and then use the fork to fork the beef and eat it." ā
"Left-handed fork...... The knife in her right hand ...... "Erin picked up the knife and fork a little awkwardly, but she held it like a weapon, and Leah sighed again when she saw this.
"You see, if you hold the fork like this, fix it with four fingers, and press your index finger on it, the knife will be in the same position. Leah raised her hands and turned their palms towards Erin to show her how to hold the knife and fork.
Erin was in a hurry for a while, but she finally got her knife and fork in the right position, and at this time, the waiter also brought fruit juice and vegetable salad.
"This is a vegetable salad, in fact, it is just to season the vegetables with special seasonings and eat them directly, this is juice, that is, the fruit is completely ground by a juicer, and then some processing will become like this. Leah said as she raised her glass and gestured to Erin.
Erin quickly put down her knife and fork, grabbed the cup and touched it with Leah, then looked at the orange juice mixture in the cup for a while, and tasted it carefully.
The next moment, Irene's expression suddenly became brighter, she swallowed the juice in her mouth, and looked at the cup in her hand with wide eyes: "It's so sweet...... Drink well...... Much better than coconut water. ā
"Naturally, it tastes better than coconut water, which is mixed with many kinds of fruits, and some special flavorings are added. Although Leah was smiling, she felt a little sorry for Erin in her heart, who had lived for fourteen years without knowing the taste of juice, and her life was almost the same as that of the poorest of the poor.
Erin closed her eyes and savored the taste of the juice, a look of intoxication, then opened her eyes and took a sip, and then closed her eyes happily.
Leah felt an indescribable feeling in her heart when she saw that she cherished a glass of juice so much.
"Okay, if you think it's delicious, it's okay to drink it quickly, I'll just buy you another drink when I'm done with this one, but I'll only buy you another drink at most," Leah laughed a little slyly, "because if you drink too much juice, you won't be able to eat anything delicious for a while." ā
Erin looked at Leah quietly for a while, and then slowly said: "Leah, thank you so much, I have grown so big, except for my parents, it is the first time that someone has been so good to me......" Speaking of this, Erin's eyes were slightly red.
Leah didn't expect Erin to have such a reaction, she couldn't help but panic a little, her eyes rolled, and then suddenly showed a wicked smile: "In that case, do you want to repay me with a personal promise?"
"Huh?" Erin was stunned for a moment, then became like she was about to cry, "Didn't you say you're not interested in me......"
"Stupid, it's so easy to be fooled," Leah laughed happily, Erin was really as innocent as she thought, "Of course I'm kidding you." ā
"Woo......" Erin couldn't help but puff out her mouth in dissatisfaction when she heard Leah's words.
"Okay, let's try the vegetable salad. Leah said, holding the fork in her right hand, forking some leaves and cucumbers into her mouth, and chewing on it with a satisfied face.
Erin did the same, holding the fork with her right hand, and forking some vegetable leaves a little awkwardly, at this time her expression was still a little puzzled, she didn't understand how such a direct raw dish could become a recipe, but after putting the salad in her mouth, Erin's eyes suddenly widened in surprise.
"What is this? What a wonderful taste...... Can vegetables still taste like this?"
"This is the salad, a special dressing, and the taste of the vegetables in the salad will change a lot from eating it directly, of course, in addition to the salad, there are also some other seasonings, such as pepper or something. ā
Erin clearly liked the taste of the vegetable salad, and kept stuffing food into her mouth, her face full of emotion.
Leah looked at her and sighed in her heart that Erin probably has the talent to become a foodie.
But if you think about it, isn't it difficult for girls to keep their mouths shut?
Eating good food and staying in shape is a choice that every girl struggles with every day, and of course, Leah, who can't eat fat at all, is an enviable exception.
Soon after, the waiter served two T-bone steaks, as well as various snacks that Leah had wanted.
Erin looked at the steak smeared with a layer of black pepper sauce, and didn't know how to start for a while, so she could only smell the ** smell and be anxious.
Leah smiled bitterly and continued to serve as Erin's meal instructor: "You see, generally speaking, the steak should be cut from the side, find a convenient position, generally the lower left, press the steak with a fork, and then cut off a small piece of meat from the inside, and then you can eat it." ā
When Leah finished explaining, she expertly cut off a piece of beef, which she put in her mouth and savored the taste of the steak with a satisfied expression.
"Sure enough...... The steak is really delicious......" After eating the steak for the first time in a long time, Leah now felt the urge to cry, and at this moment she felt that she had no regrets in her life.
Leah deserves to be a qualified foodie......
Erin looked at Leah, then at the steak in front of her, clumsily took the knife and fork, and cut it according to the technique that Leah had just demonstrated, but because she was too rusty, she had no way to cut the beef smoothly, so she could only stare at the steak swaying back and forth.
"You see, I'll demonstrate it again, and if you get the hang of it, it shouldn't take much effort. Leah said as she cut off another piece of beef.
Erin watched Leah's movements carefully, but when it came time to try it herself, she still couldn't cut the beef smoothly.
Leah couldn't help but sigh when she saw this, then stood up and walked behind Erin, reaching out from behind and holding the back of her hand.
"If you follow my movements, as long as you get used to the use of knives and forks, you should be able to complete this step easily. Leah said as she took Erin's hand and cut the steak, a gesture that inevitably pressed her chest against the back of Erin's neck.
In addition, Leah's golden hair also fell to the side of Erin's face, she glanced at the silky hair, subconsciously sniffed, and then a very nice fragrance wafted into her nose.
Erin's little face turned red all of a sudden. (To be continued.) )
