Chapter 47: Simplified Chicken Steak and Tomato Sauce
Kagawa, who was still in a state of excitement about making a new friend, couldn't wait to entertain the two of them home for dinner, but Ouyang Yating and Lianggong both refused, which made her depressed for a while. On the way home, Xiangxue was embarrassed to see this, and kept chatting with her sister about her interesting stories at school and some recent gossip in society, and when she got home, Kagawa had a carefree smile on her face again.
In the evening, Kagawa was in a good mood to fry a few pieces of chicken steaks, and because there was no marinade, she specially cut the palm-sized chicken steaks into quarter-sized pieces and grabbed them with salt, oil, and flour.
It's really unaccustomed to marinating meat without ginger and shallots...... Kagawa complained inwardly.
Luckily, with black pepper and tomato sauce stir-fried yesterday with tomatoes, salt, vinegar and sugar, each person served a bowl of sauce, and then prepared pancakes, steamed dumplings and tomato egg drop soup, this dinner was ready to tell whether it was Chinese or Western.
The sweet and sour appetizing ketchup captured everyone at once.
Lin Yu ate a steamed dumpling dipped in tomato sauce, his eyes lit up, if the vinegar dipped in vinegar made his mouth a little sour, then today's ketchup is not too suitable for his sweet party's appetite! While sighing at the magic of ketchup, he did not forget to send a photo of ketchup to his son, who had been irritated by his father's "newspaper" photo since two days ago, and did not want to pay attention to him. It's not that he always likes to stare at his son and harass him, but his daughter who is in the high school attached to the Military Academy has started school, the school has opening training, and he can't contact him, and his wife in the Cold War Bureau won't take care of him, so he can only keep harassing his son, who is currently in junior high school.
Apparently the son saw the message, but he didn't plan to deal with him, alas, did the son also rebel? Lin Yu, who didn't think he was wrong at all, sighed in his heart.
"By the way, Xiaochuan, is your club still going well?"
Lin Yu asked, the work of the diplomatic corps has recently begun to enter the final stage, and it is a little too busy, and he has not paid much attention to this junior who has brought him so many delicious experiences, which makes Lin Yu feel a little unpleasant.
"Hmmm! Today, the club room has been renovated, and I have bought some tables and chairs. Saying that, Kagawa turned his head to look at Xiangqi sitting on his left, "Brother Xiangqi, take some cakes tomorrow and help me comfort the seniors of the university's engineering department." ”
"Huh?" Xiangqi was stunned for a moment, as if he thought of something interesting, smiled, and replied, "Okay, I will take a good look at these seniors of yours." ”
“?”
Kagawa looked at his brother's reaction, and looked at Xiangxue next to him, and both of them tilted their heads suspiciously: Did she say something strange just now?
"I remember today is the last day of the High School Club Admissions Day, right? Have you recruited any new members? ”
Xiang Weiguo said with concern.
"Hmm!" Kagawa smiled very happily at the mention of this, "I recruited two new members today!" ”
Two...... Two people?
Xiang Weiguo and Lin Minzhi glanced at each other strangely, and Lin Yu also had an inexplicable look on his face.
"Xiaochuan, you're talking about twenty people, right......?"
Lin Minzhi asked uncertainly.
As a result, she shook her head and replied, "No, it's just two people, more than 60 people came to sign up in the afternoon, but only two people can pass the assessment." ”
When they heard that there were more than 60 people signing up, the faces of the three elders calmed down a little: Fortunately, this child should not have been targeted by the school.
But when they heard the second half of the sentence "just two people", the three of them looked complicated again.
"Xiaochuan, what exam questions have you prepared?"
Xiang Weiguo couldn't help but put down the knife and fork, and the other two also looked at her seriously. I don't blame the three elders for such a reaction, mainly because most of the families of the Third Boat Regiment are engaged in agriculture or food-related work, and as children, they are more or less familiar with it, and their basic knowledge of food is above their peers in the other eleven Boat Regiments, so how can only two people be selected?
"It's a very simple question, this is it." Kagawa picked up the cup on the table where the fruit milk was poured and shook it, "I have prepared three flavors of fruit milk, let everyone guess the type of fruit, guess three questions correctly and join the group directly, guess two questions correctly can come in as a reserve member, but only two people can answer." ”
At this moment, not only the three elders, but Xiangqi and Xiangxue both looked complicated.
Is it still easy?!
You must know that after Xiangxue and Kagawa went out early in the morning, Xiang Weiguo and Lin Yu, who were rarely late to the government office area this morning, habitually poured a cup of fruit milk and found that the taste was wrong, thinking that there was something wrong with the fruit milk, so they hurriedly rushed to the kitchen and vomited and vomited, which scared Xiangqi, who had just walked downstairs during the day today, and asked his classmates to have a meeting at home during the day. After the last question about the kitchen AI, I learned that the fruit milk was temporarily changed to a peach flavor yesterday, and everyone knew that there was a big joke, and after silently telling the kitchen AI not to spread the word, everyone was silent with a cup of peach milk.
None of these elders, who have been immersed in modern food for many years, can tell the difference in the taste of fruits, let alone high school students who only have a shallow concept of food?
"Xiaochuan," Xiang Weiguo pressed his temples, feeling that it would be okay for his eldest daughter to go on like this, "Do you want to recruit a few more people?" In the future, if there are other activities in the high school, it will be difficult for you and two members of the ancient food club to cope with it. ”
"Father, there was a saying in ancient times that it was better to have a lack than an abundance." Kagawa drank the milk and said, "I hope that the people who enter my club are classmates who have the same pursuit of food as me, not just because of curiosity or messing around, if you just want to satisfy their curiosity, I ask the chef to make more cakes and take them to the school to distribute to them to try fresh." And at least most of the unqualified students I interviewed today have this kind of tendency, so instead of recruiting so many people with unclear intentions, why don't you keep two peers with basic knowledge? ”
These words made the three elders and Xiangqi stunned, and the four of them thought about it, and it seemed to make sense.
"'Rather lack than excess'...... In ancient times, there were such good words. Lin Yu touched his chin, praised, raised his head and saw Xiang Weiguo's tangled expression, he couldn't help but smile: "Xiang Dong, children have their own unique views on things, not to mention that Xiaochuan is still the kind of special child who has been exposed to information turbulence, she will definitely not act impulsively, or you let her try it first." ”
Xiang Weiguo looked at Lin Yu, and looked at his wife, who had decided to trust his daughter's decision and calmly continued to eat chicken cutlets, so he could only nod.
"And Xiaochuan is willing to say it directly because of your trust in her, compared to my daughter...... Alas. The cold eyes of his daughter when she looked at him came to mind, and Lin Yu couldn't help but shake his head and sigh. Their two-week stay is also coming to an end, and when they go back, it will be almost the time for their son to go to his wife and his daughter to come to him, but her daughter's temper that is not close to anyone makes Lin Yu have nothing to do with her.
"Captain Lin, isn't your son quite well-behaved?" Lin Minzhi comforted that after dinner before, he happened to see Lin Yu communicating with his son on video, and the child in the picture looked about the same age as Xiangxue, and he looked very clever and lively, which was quite likable.
"That kid hasn't replied to my messages lately." Lin Yu smiled bitterly and shook his head.
Hearing this, Xiang Weiguo patted Lin Yu's shoulder wordlessly to express comfort, the so-called family has a scripture that is difficult to read.
At the same time, the home of Lin Yu of the first boat regiment.
Lin Ming, who didn't know that he had become the center of the topic, was conducting a video communication at this time.
[Are you really planning to go over?] 】
The woman who painted the face smelled it, and there was a hint of concern in her serious tone.
“…… Yes, I've decided I'm going. Lin Ming clenched his fists and said with determination: "If the course is not much different in the past now, I can still catch up with the progress." ”
[I've been talking about it for so many days, and you still think this way, so I don't have anything to say. The woman who drew the face sighed, "Then I will officially submit the formalities...... Pack your things and get ready to go in three days. 】
