Xiangchuan, who was still in the excitement of making new friends, couldn't wait to invite the two of them home for dinner. However, both Ouyang Yating and Liang Gong refused, leaving her frustrated for a while. On the way home, Xiangxue was ashamed when she saw this, and kept chatting with her sister about interesting things about herself at school and some recent gossip in society. When she got home, Xiangchuan had a carefree smile on her face again.
In the evening, Xiangchuan was in a good mood and fried some chicken steaks. Since there was no marinade, she specially cut the palm-sized chicken steaks into quarters and scratched them with salt, oil and flour.
I'm really not used to marinating meat without ginger and scallions... Xiangchuan complained in his heart.
Fortunately, I had black pepper and the tomato sauce I fried yesterday with tomatoes, salt, vinegar and sugar. Each person took a bowl of sauce, and prepared pancakes, steamed dumplings and tomato and egg drop soup. I couldn’t tell whether this meal was Chinese or Western. Dinner is ready.
The sweet and sour tomato sauce captured everyone’s attention at once.
Lin Yu's eyes lit up after eating a steamed dumpling dipped in ketchup. If the vinegar dipped in vinegar before made his mouth sore, today's ketchup will not suit his sweet taste! While he was lamenting the magic of ketchup, he did not forget to send the photo of ketchup to his son who had been so stimulated by his father's "newspaper" photo two days ago that he refused to pay attention to him. It’s not that he always likes to stare at his son and harass him, but that his daughter, who is in the high school affiliated with the Military Academy, has started school. The school has opening training, and he can’t contact him. His wife in the Cold War Branch will not pay attention to him, so he can only stop. Harassing my son who is currently in junior high school.
Obviously his son saw the message, but he didn't intend to pay attention to him. Alas, is his son also in his rebellious stage? Lin Yu, who didn't think he was wrong at all, sighed in his heart.
"By the way, Xiaochuan, is everything going well with your club?"
Lin Yu asked. Recently, the work of the diplomatic corps has begun to enter the final stage. It is a little too busy and failed to pay more attention to this junior who has brought him so many delicious experiences. This makes Lin Yu feel guilty.
"Well! The club activity room has been decorated today, and I also bought some tables and chairs." As he spoke, Xiangchuan turned to look at Xiangqi, who was sitting on his left, "Brother Xiangqi, bring me some cakes to express my condolences to the university tomorrow. Seniors from the engineering department."
"Huh?" Xiangqi was stunned, as if he thought of something interesting, smiled, and replied: "Okay, I will give my condolences to your seniors."
"?"
Seeing his brother's reaction, Xiangchuan looked at Xiangxue next to him. They both tilted their heads in confusion: Did she say something strange just now?
"I remember today is the last day of enrollment for the high school club, right? Have you recruited any new members?"
Xiang Wei Guo cared.
"Yeah!" Xiangchuan smiled very happily when he mentioned this, "I recruited two new members today!"
Two... two people?
Xiang Weiguo and Lin Minzhi looked at each other strangely, and Lin Yu also had an inexplicable look on his face.
"Ogawa, are you talking about twenty people...?"
Lin Minzhi asked uncertainly.
In the end, she shook her head and replied: "No, 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 more than 60 people had signed up, the expressions of the three elders became slightly calmer: Fortunately, this child should not be targeted by the school.
But when they heard "just two people" in the second half of the sentence, the three of them looked complicated again.
"Xiaochuan, what test questions have you prepared?"
Xiang Weiguo couldn't help but put down his knife and fork, and the other two people also looked at her seriously. It’s not surprising that the three elders reacted like this. The main reason is that most families in the third fleet are engaged in agriculture or food-related work. As children, they are more or less exposed to the basic knowledge of food. They are all in the other eleven ships. How come only two people were selected above the group's peers?
"It's a very simple test question. This is it." Xiangchuan picked up the cup filled with fruit milk on the table and shook it. "I prepared three flavors of fruit milk and asked everyone to guess the type of fruit. If you guess the three questions correctly, you will go directly to the test. If you guess two questions correctly, you can join as a reserve member, but only two people can answer them."
Now, not only the three elders, but also Xiang Qi and Xiang Xue had complicated expressions.
Is this simple? !
You must know that after Xiangxue and Xiangchuan left early in the morning, Xiang Weiguo, his wife, and Lin Yu, who were rarely able to arrive at the government office area late this morning, poured a glass of fruit milk out of habit and found that it tasted wrong. They thought there was something wrong with the fruit milk, so they hurriedly He rushed to the kitchen and vomited again and again, which shocked Xiangqi who had just walked downstairs and had an appointment with his classmates for a meeting at home during the day. After asking the kitchen AI for the last time, they found out that the fruit milk had been temporarily changed to peach flavor yesterday. Only then did everyone realize that a big joke had been made. After silently instructing the kitchen AI not to spread the word, everyone held a glass of peach milk and remained silent.
Their elders who have been immersed in modern food for many years cannot tell the difference in the taste of fruits, let alone high school students who only have a superficial concept of food?
"Xiaochuan," Xiang Weiguo pressed his temples, feeling that it would be okay for his eldest daughter to continue like this, "How about recruiting a few more people? If there are other activities in the high school in the future, your ancient food club will only have you and two people. It will be difficult for the members to cope with it.”
"Father, there is a saying in ancient times that it is better to lack than to indulge." Xiangchuan drank the fruit milk in one gulp and said seriously: "I hope that the people who join my club will be classmates who have the same pursuit of food as me, not just because of curiosity or If you just want to satisfy their curiosity, wouldn't it be great if I asked the chef to make more cakes and distribute them to the school for them to try? And at least most of the unqualified students I interviewed today are If you have this tendency, then instead of recruiting so many people with unclear intentions, why not just keep two companions with basic knowledge?"
This statement stunned the three elders and Xiang Qi. After thinking about it for a while, the four of them thought it seemed reasonable.
"'It's better to be lacking than to be indiscriminate'... There was such a good word in ancient times." Lin Yu touched his chin and praised. He raised his head and saw Xiang Weiguo's tangled expression. He couldn't help but smile: "Dr. Xiang, children are interested in things." Everyone has their own unique opinions, not to mention that Xiaochuan is a special child who has been exposed to the turbulent flow of information. She will definitely not act impulsively, so why don't you let her try it first."
Xiang Weiguo looked at Lin Yu and his wife, who had decided to trust her daughter's decision and continued to eat chicken steak calmly, and could only nod.
"And Xiaochuan is willing to say it directly because of your trust in her. In comparison, my daughter is...sigh." The cold eyes of his daughter when she looked at him appeared in his mind, and Lin Yu couldn't help but shake his head. sigh. Their two-week stay was coming to an end. When they returned, it was almost time for their son to go to his wife's place and for his daughter to come to his place. However, his daughter's temperament of not getting close to anyone made Lin Yu unable to do anything about her. .
"Captain Lin, your son is very well-behaved, isn't he?" Lin Minzhi comforted. After dinner, she happened to see Lin Yu having a video communication with his son. The child in the picture looked about the same age as Xiangxue. Look. He is very smart and lively, and quite lovable.
"That guy hasn't replied to my messages recently." Lin Yu smiled bitterly and shook his head.
Hearing this, Xiang Wei Guo silently patted Lin Yu's shoulder to express comfort. The so-called every family has its own scriptures that are difficult to recite.
At the same time, Lin Yu's home in the first fleet.
Little Lin Ming, who didn't know that he had become the center of the topic, was currently communicating via video.
[Are you really planning to go there? 】
The woman across from the painting smelled it, and there was a hint of concern in her serious tone.
"...Yes, I have decided to go." Lin Ming clenched his fists and said with determination: "The courses will not be much different if I go there now, and I can still catch up."
[I have said this for so many days and you still have this idea, so I have nothing to say. ] The woman facing the painting sighed, [Then I will formally submit the formalities... pack my things and prepare to leave in three days. 】
