When long Jianhua returned to courtyard 7, Liu Zhifei was still awake. She was reading in her bedroom. She heard the faint dialogue between housekeeper you Fangyuan and him. She came out to say hello.
He asked fondly, "it''s half past eleven. Why haven''t you slept yet?"
As usual, she goes to bed on time at eleven, which is a steady habit.
She smiled brightly and her lovely dimples were obvious. "Today, I received a notice that a paper I wrote at the end of last semester was published in an American Journal."
He hugged her on the shoulder and kissed her on the face. "Congratulations. The first step towards economists has been taken. "
She said with a smile, "it''s far from enough. Without your support, without Shimada''s guidance... "
He smiled, "you should thank long Jianhua, Shimada, mom and Dad, grandparents and grandma..."
The man took her by the waist and walked to the living room.
She interrupted him with a smile, "I hate it."
He took out a 375 ml red wine and two glasses. "In order to celebrate Feifei''s first international paper, I have to celebrate."
She sniffed, "you smell of wine. You still drink."
He said with a smile, "I didn''t drink much. The smell was absorbed from the reception, which took a big advantage. Do you want to call Junyan up? "
She smiled. "It''s been celebrated. We both had a drink for dinner at the Research Institute. "
He laughed and said, "I''m so stingy that I went there to rub red wine to celebrate. Such a thing should be celebrated with great fanfare. Well, let''s go to the hotel tomorrow evening and celebrate. "
She skimmed her lips. "Do you think there is any hotel on xiangdao that can compare with No. 7 hospital? In fact, what I love most is your cooking. "
He patted his thigh and raised his glass. "I''ll cook myself tomorrow night. Tell me what you want. "
She tilted her head and asked playfully, "do you have time?"
He nodded. "There must be."
She giggled. "Want something you haven''t eaten."
Then he took his glass and touched him, "don''t go back."
He smiled and watched him take a sip of wine.
He also took a sip and said confidently, "no problem."
Next, she made many requests, and he promised them one by one.
The next day at dinner time, she went home with Junyan and saw him reading in the living room, "brother Hua, what''s going on? I didn''t eat at noon, so I''m waiting for this meal in the evening. "
He immediately put the book down. "Go wash it. You can eat it in no more than 20 minutes."
Within ten minutes, the two of them went into the kitchen and saw him shaking the pot.
Junyan stretched out his neck. "Brother, I heard you''re back in the Jianghu. What''s new today? What''s this fried? It smells good. "
"Fried pheasant with streaky pork."
Liu Zhifei asked, "what are those two stoves?"
"There are two steamed vegetables and bamboo rice in the steamer. The casserole is stuffy beer duck. It''s time in the steamer. You can take it away. I''ll get another green vegetable. "
Yun Yan opened the lid of the steamer and saw that the upper layer was a bowl of egg soup. He murmured, "didn''t you say something you haven''t eaten? How is it egg soup? But the smell is good. It seems a little fragrant and sweet. "
After taking down the steamer, I saw that the second layer was a red layer of chopped pepper on the head of a fish, "brother, did you use up all the chopped peppers at home?"
Swallow saliva, "I haven''t eaten such a fish head. It should be delicious."
In Kyoto, she doesn''t dare to eat chili, afraid of acne; In xiangdao, they eat in the canteen most of the time. They haven''t seen so much pepper for a long time.
When she eats at home occasionally, she always gets some chopped pepper with rice.
He smiled, "a little more. It''s easy to do. I''ve done some. I won''t lose you. "
She said with a smile, "I''m afraid my sister-in-law can''t eat so spicy."
His eyes are fixed on the fish head with chopped pepper.
Liu Zhifei took a pair of chopsticks, picked up a little pepper and stretched it to Yun Yan. "You like eating pepper so much, try it first."
Long Jianhua smiled, "don''t worry, I want to pour some juice."
After pouring the cooked juice on the fish head, "you can taste it."
Junyan took a little fish and then some chopped peppers, "aha, it''s delicious. It''s so enjoyable!"
Liu Zhifei only dipped a little fish in the soup, "ah, it''s so spicy. But it feels good. "
Long Jianhua waved to the two of them, "take it to the table to eat. I''ll fry the vegetables right away. "
When he went out with the vegetables, Liu Zhifei was being "wheezed" and "brother Hua, it''s delicious! I can hardly stop. Why didn''t you do it before? "
"And this egg soup, why is it so fresh? What are those things in it?"
Junyan also put down the fish bones, "that is, it''s too fresh. Why didn''t you make it for us before? Is it true that the longer you steam, the fresher the eggs? However, you didn''t come. We didn''t dare to eat more. Each of us only tasted a small spoon. "
Liu Zhifei nodded again and again, "I only ate a few pieces of wild chicken, and the wild duck hasn''t tasted yet."
He stretched out his hand, picked up a bottle of red wine from the side, opened it, poured it for the three, smiled and said, "just eat. I didn''t go to the vegetable market before. When I went today, I found there were too many good things in it. In the future, I will cook once a week to improve your life. "
Junyan "puffed" and smiled, "brother, we still improve our life, as if we were wronged here. It''s not my sister-in-law who said you should show off today. I think the canteen is very good. Those foreigners say that they have gained at least ten kilograms and can''t lose weight in any exercise. "
He shook his head. "It''s really not bad to eat in the canteen, but it''s not family life, it''s collective life. In the future, I will cook dinner at least once a week to give you a change of taste and experience family life. "
Raise your glass, "before, Junyan published articles in international journals. I didn''t celebrate. It''s my brother''s fault; In the future, as long as you publish articles in world-famous journals, we will celebrate. "
"This ceremony starts today. I wish Feifei the first time to publish a paper in a foreign journal."
Then he touched her cup and Junyan again.
Last night, Liu Zhifei didn''t sleep at that time. He was waiting to tell himself the news. Later, he thought in bed for a long time and woke up.
Now they have become money making machines, ignoring the family affection that should have been enjoyed, which is impossible.
You can''t alienate your family just because you want to take care of the company, which must be reversed.
The proper ceremony must be carried out.
After half an hour at the company this morning, I went to the vegetable market to buy vegetables immediately; In the afternoon, he came back two hours in advance and began to prepare dinner.
Liu Zhifei smiled, "thank you, brother Hua."
Yun Yan said with a smile, "thank you, brother."
He pointed to the egg soup. "This is not an ordinary egg soup, but a barnacle steamed egg. In the restaurant, we eat all the original soup. Today, we have another way to eat it. "
"I ate a lot of steamed fish in the restaurant. Today I got a fish head with chopped pepper; We used to eat fried sparrows with streaky pork, but today we fry pheasants. "
"I used to eat old duck soup, but today I''ll have a beer duck; And this taro vegetable soup. It tastes very good. Try it. "
Liu Zhifei ate a spoonful of steamed eggs, "Wow, it''s really fragrant and fresh. It''s much stronger than shell. This new year, I''ll go back and steam one for them to eat, making sure they swallow their tongue. "
He shook his head. "That may not be possible. Barnacles are hard to preserve. They lose their flavor in one day unless they are ''Drunk''... "
