“Well...”
Zhang Han smiled. When he released her hand, Zhang Han involuntarily kneaded it, which prompted Zi Yan to roll her eyes at him.
“Hum!”
Zi Yan did not know how charming she was at this point. She snorted softly and said in a disgruntled tone, “I’ll go abroad in the afternoon. I don’t think you have prepared any food to see off.”
“Didn’t we get here just now? I’ll take the ingredients when I go back.” Zhang Han was speechless.
“But you’ve never made my favorite dishes. You aren’t sincere at all.” Zi Yan pursed her lips slightly, which made her both sexy and lovely.
“Look over there.” Zhang Han pointed to the planting area and said, “I planted so vegetables over there a few days ago, including spinach, lettuce, cabbage, mushrooms and so other small vegetables.”
“Oh.” Zi Yan was shocked and lowered her head slightly.
“You can have the hot pot when you co back from your business trip. The sheep over there are Ujimqin Sheep, and they are also one of the best breeds for boiling hot pot.” Zhang Han said casually.
It took a long ti to breed the livestock in Mount New Moon after being brought. Only in this way could they possess the best at quality. Moreover, since Mount New Moon was not a treasured place, it needed ti to improve the at quality. After finishing the second transformation, however, the process would be shortened up to one or two days.
Zhang Han knew hot pot pretty well.
Hot pot, which derived its na from the sound of “plop” when food was put into boiling water, was called “antique soup” in ancient tis. It was an original delicacy of our country with a long history and was a kind of food suitable for all ages.
It was especially popular in East Asia and people could boil the ingredients whenever they wanted to eat. It was spicy, salty and fresh, oily but not greasy, and made people sweat ceaselessly.
Typical ingredients to make hot pot contained various kinds of at, seafood, vegetables, bean products, mushrooms, egg products and so on, which could be eaten after being cooked into boiled clear water or special stock. Sotis these ingredients were served with seasonings.
Zi Yan preferred Chong Qing hot pot, which was well-known in China and was regarded as a culture. It could also be called cattle tripe hot pot or spicy hot pot, and its main ingredients included beef tripe, duck intestine, etc.
Cattle tripe comprised black tripe and white tripe. It was cooked in a few seconds and tasted both chewy and tender.
After hearing Zhang Han’s words, Zi Yan quivered slightly. When she raised her head after a long ti, she was as cold as usual, but her eyes were overwheld with warmth and emotion.
“It turned out that... he cared about .”
Happy ti really flew and it was noon soon.
“We should go back.”
Zhang Han took so ingredients, containing several potatoes, so cucumbers and tomatoes.
Zi Yan had eaten a tomato just now. She was indeed at ease about these kinds of green fruits and vegetables. Since she raved about the sweet taste of the tomato, even ngng nibbled less than half of a tomato.
While eating, Zi Yan said casually, “I rember there’s a kind of very small persimmon which is also delicious.”
Her words reminded ngng, who waved her small hands and said, “That’s right. The persimmon is red or yellow. PaPa, ngng also likes it very much.”
“All right, PaPa will plant so for you and your MaMa in a few days, okay?” Zhang Han answered with a smile.
“Great! Mwah, mwah, mwah.”
This was just a small episode in Mount New Moon.
After returning to the restaurant at noon, Zhang Han made braised chicken, spicy and sour potato, cucumber with garlic sauce as well as tomato salad.
Cucumber with garlic sauce was the most common dish in the restaurant. The cucumbers grown in Mount New Moon were extrely fresh and were very popular with people.
However, it was braised chicken that surprised Liang ngqi and other mbers. Everyone got so and was filled with joy.
“Ooh... this braised chicken is too fragrant. How can San Huang native chickens be so fragrant? Great...”
Every ti Pearson enjoyed food in the restaurant, he would sigh with emotion.
What he did made people who were eating at the white table nearby miserable. They wanted to scold him!
Zhang Han, Zi Yan, ngng and Zhou Fei were also enjoying a generous lunch on the second floor. At the beginning of the al, Zhang Han put a chicken wing in ngng’s bowl first and ngng directly took it with her small palms to chew it up. In the middle of lunch, Zhang Han put another wing in ngng’s bowl.
“Well... This, this chicken wing is for MaMa.”
ngng directly grabbed the top of the wing and put it in Zi Yan’s bowl.
“ngng doesn’t need to do that. It’s enough for to eat other at, so dig in.”
Although Zi Yan also liked chicken wings very much, she still put it in ngng’s bowl. What she did was all because of love.
“Uh-huh, no, MaMa. You should eat one. MaMa also should have a chicken wing.” ngng grabbed the wing, placing it in Zi Yan’s bowl again. She was really firm.
“Okay, then I’ll eat it.” Zi Yan smiled, feeling very gratified.
“PaPa should have one, too.” ngng stared at the plate with her big bright eyes, looking for a chicken wing for PaPa.
“Here it is.” Zi Yan found that there was a chicken wing in the corner of the plate, so she picked it up with chopsticks and put it in Zhang Han’s bowl. anwhile, she said, “You’re tired, so just eat one.”
“I don’t need...”
Zhang Han chuckled. When he was about to say sothing, Zhou Fei stared at Zi Yan’s and Zhang Han’s faces several tis and said exaggeratedly,
“Wow! Really? I’m still here. Why do I seem to be neglected by you? Have you displayed your affection to the point of ignoring everything? Gee, it seems that in the morning in Mount New Moon you...”
“Zhou Fei!” Zi Yan put the chicken wing in Zhang Han’s bowl, stared at Zhou Fei and said, “If you don’t want to eat, you’d better go downstairs!”
“Oh! Are you driving off? It seems that I’m not loved as a gooseberry.” Zhou Fei was not afraid at all but quipped audaciously. .
“If you continue to talk nonsense, I... I will sew your mouth!” Zi Yan snorted softly.
“Hum, troubleso Aunty Feifei, I’m going to sew your big mouth,” ngng mumbled indistinctly because there was at in her mouth.
“Just eat.” Zhang Han laughed.
“My gosh. You three are ganging up against . Whooh... I stand alone. Why doesn’t Lili co? I must be bullied without a helper.” Zhou Fei made a strange face. When she saw Zi Yan putting down her chopsticks and being about to move, she quickly turned into a smiling face and said, “Just eat. The chicken cooked by brother-in-law is so delicious, ha, ha.”
After finishing speaking, she started to eat alone. Zhou Fei, however, felt very happy finding that Zi Yan and Zhang Han was getting closer and closer.
If Zhang Han was a jerk who was sorehead and negative as she heard before she returned ho, Zhou Fei would be disgusted with him. But she did not expect that Zhang Han was so outstanding. Most importantly, he doted on ngng. All these made Zhou Fei feel that it was best for them to be together.
Zhang Han did not eat the chicken wing in the bowl. He just put it into ngng’s bowl when ngng finished eating her chicken wing.
“No, PaPa should eat.”
But ngng was immovable. Zhang Han helplessly took the chicken wing back and ate it.
In fact, Zhang Han did not like chicken wings very much. But for ngng, chicken wings and drumsticks were the best parts of a chicken to eat.
After lunch, Zhang Han drove Zi Yan and Zhou Fei to the airport.
When they were about to get out of the car, ngng cried in Zi Yan’s arms since she did not want MaMa to leave her. Zhang Han was really worried for he failed to make her stop crying.
Zi Yan was also helpless. After coaxing for more than ten minutes, she made ngng stop crying.
Finding the departure ti coming, Zi Yan and Zhou Fei left reluctantly. ngng was going to cry again.
“ngng, stop crying. Your mother will be back in a few days.” Zhang Han said with a sigh.
“Whoop... How many days will MaMa be away? ngng doesn’t want MaMa to go.” ngng pouted and was about to cry again.
“Well, well, don’t cry, ngng. ngng is the cutest. Stop crying and PaPa will take you to the amusent park, okay?” Zhang Han had the presence of mind to divert ngng’s attention.
“Hm?”
ngng stopped crying as expected when he talked about the amusent park. She blinked her big eyes and whispered, “Are we going now?”
“Yes, we’ll go now, but ngng can’t cry. Wipe your tears.”
“Well, ngng won’t cry.” ngng reached out her hands and wiped her tears off.
“Then PaPa will take you to the amusent park. Do you want to sing a song to PaPa?” Zhang Han continued to divert ngng’s attention.
“Ok.” ngng’s voice was still sowhat muffled.
But under Zhang Han’s regulation, ngng sang a few songs. Then the car rang with cheers and laughter again.
They ca to the Ocean Park again and ngng wanted to take the sky-scraping wheel once again. She found it fun looking down from such a high place.
“PaPa, it’s so high, ho, ho, ho. There’re lots of little people on the ground.”
“PaPa, erm... Uh... Big Heihei and Little Heihei haven’t been to the amusent park yet. ngng wants to bring them!”
For ngng, the two were her good friends. The amusent park was so interesting that ngng certainly wanted to bring them here.
Zhang Han did not hesitate to hear what she said. He touched ngng’s head with a smile and said,
“Then PaPa will bring you, Dahei and Little Hei to here in a few days, ok?”
“Great, PaPa. It’s very kind of you. Mwah, mwah, mwah. And we should co here with MaMa.”
“Well, I’ll bring her too.”
...
Zhang Han and ngng were having a good ti in the amusent park, while in the frontier between China and Laos.
“Golden Triangle is ahead and we can reach General Will’s territory within an hour.”
Ning Xuan said, looking at the mountains ahead. She seed to be familiar with Golden Triangle.
