Riding the wind of rebirth

Chapter 309 Lively Seafood
After drinking this cup, the feast can be regarded as officially started.

The delicious dishes were served one after another, but Jiang Shuyi didn't know any of them, and even didn't know whether to use a spoon or chopsticks for some of them.

Fortunately, Zhou Zhi was there to help, so he didn't feel embarrassed looking at Cai.

However, Zhou Zhi's skillful pointing and shrimp peeling attracted the attention of several people at the table, and one of them asked: "The elbow doesn't look like it's the first time to eat Cantonese food. We pretend to be old-fashioned in front of Shuyi."

"How could it be so sophisticated? Even the capital of Sichuan has just opened the first restaurant. Where can I eat Cantonese food in Jiachuan?"

"Where is the nearest big city to Jiachuan? Yuzhou, right?"

"Yuzhou is considered a big city? I heard that the seafood here is airlifted from the South China Sea. What is it called? Vigorous! Yuzhou has been dragged down by several big factories in the past few years, but we have to wait."

It was Jiang Lin and Jiang Yuan, the youngest members of the Second Uncle and Third Uncle's family who were speaking.

These two are the young masters of the family, and they are also the kind who have been doted on since they were young. They suffered a few years when they were young, but soon the life at home was very good.

In the middle of my studies, the school is excellent, my parents are also good, the family tradition attaches great importance to education, and my journey has been smooth. After graduating from university, I happened to catch the wind of the country's emphasis on academic qualifications. The units I work for are quite good, and I have never lost my sense of superiority. .

But this year is a bit different. The arrival of Xiao Yaoshu and Xiao Yaomei this year has obviously attracted the attention of the uncle's family.

This is a bit annoying, but just now the uncle praised Xiao Yaomei for bringing this little boy, which is even more unbearable.

He still had some scruples towards Jiang Shuyi and the two, but he felt no pressure towards Zhou Zhi, so he began to sneer.

Zhou Zhi couldn't help but secretly amused, does the plot of pretending to slap his face have to be staged here today?
I don't even bother to talk to them, how can I live up to the rare food now?

Picked a piece of sand tea beef for Jiang Shuyi: "Shuyi, you like beef, so eat more of this. This side dish is called kale. It is rarely grown in Sichuan, but it is very common in the south."

"It's delicious, but the name is weird. Why is it called Shacha Beef?"

"Shacha is a transliteration of condiment, which was spread from Indonesia to Chaoshan. Chaoshan people use that spice to make sauce with peanuts, sesame, fish and shrimp, etc. Chaoshan hot pot made with that sauce, beef It is authentic to eat it hot, and the current method of cooking in a casserole is actually an improvement of Chaoshan hot pot.”

"Hey! It's as if you've eaten it before. Let me ask you, where do you go to eat whole seafood? You still talk so much."

"This comfortable cousin." Zhou Zhi put down his chopsticks and said with a smile, "First of all, I want to correct a small mistake of yours. Don't make a fixed combination of seafood and vigorous seafood. Seafood, taking a step back, also refers to seafood that has been kept alive until the restaurant. For example, lobster, grouper, etc., and now the table can be called fresh seafood, only a boiled shrimp can barely be counted."

"And the rest, such as this scallop, is raw but not fierce; this abalone is shipped to the mainland in the form of cans, and the shark's fin is made from dry products, which are neither raw nor fierce."

"And the rest have nothing to do with seafood."

"You! It's not the first time you've relied on our Jiang family for this glory!"

"Cousin." Jiang Shuyi's face turned cold.

Seeing that this girl was about to lose her temper, Zhou Zhi was really scared. Jiang Shuyi's temper was twisted, and if she wanted to lose her temper, it would be irrelevant regardless of the occasion.

He hurriedly patted Jiang Shuyi's thigh secretly while no one was paying attention, and signaled her not to interfere, and left it to himself.

In the end, this action seemed to be too intimate. Although it was hidden, it was still "in front of all relatives".

Only then did Zhou Zhi say slowly, "Both cousins, today is the first time we've met, and you don't know me well, so all your judgments on me now come from your own guesses and... er, based on limited information. , make up your mind."

"If I tell you that there is a third brother Yu downstairs who has been buying goods in Guangzhou for a long time, stuffing sea cucumbers, scallops, shark's fin and bird's nests into my house for a long time, or dried abalone, prawns, yellow croaker and hairtail, forcing our family to often practice Cantonese stewed vegetables, would you believe it? ?”

"If I tell you that I have eaten all the dishes on this table, and that the sea cucumber and shrimp have been wrapped in dumplings, and the bigger abalone has been stewed with chicken, would you believe it?"

"If I tell you that I will treat Shu Yi to eat this dish of crispy squab once or twice every semester, would you believe me?"

"You don't need to believe it, then we are like this, every dish on the table now, and every dish that will be on the table next, I am on the side, and the two cousins ​​are on the side. We will take turns to report the name of the dish, and then call the waiter over Check it out, how about it?"

The two cousins ​​were really caught by Zhou Zhi and dared not agree.

Zhou Zhi smiled and said, "You probably don't know much about it. Let me tell you what's on the table first: abalone in sauce, raw wings in broth, bird's nest in apricot sauce, scallops minced in garlic, sashimi platter, boiled shrimp, crispy pigeon, sand Tea beef."

"The ingredients in the sashimi platter are salmon, geoduck, and arctic shellfish."

"So in terms of other things, I definitely can't compare with the two cousins, but when it comes to food, I really haven't lost to anyone."

"There is one more thing I want to remind my two cousins, I am a guest invited by your uncle and eldest brother, and I have never known each other in my life."

"You said that if I stood up now, scolded you loudly and then walked away, because the two of you refused to eat your Jiang family's meal, what would be the consequences for me? What would be the consequences for you? "

Zhou Zhi stood up as he spoke, and the two young men realized this, their faces turned pale and they were extremely nervous.

Zhou Zhi smiled slightly, raised his glass, "Of course I wouldn't do that, because Shu Yi is my classmate and my good friend."

"So of course I won't offend my two cousins. Come here and bring the wine. Let's wish everyone, especially the two cousins, a happy new year and all the best. Then go to the other two tables to respect the elders."

"Elbow, it was just a joke just now, don't take it to heart..." Jiang Yuan hurriedly pulled Jiang Lin, who was still a little reluctant, to stand up: "It's just a little joke, a little joke, I apologize if it goes too far. Not much to say, not much to say, it's all in the wine..."

After paying respects to this table, Zhou Zhi brought Jiang Shuyi to the table of his uncles, and naturally there was a lot of excitement.

Jiang Shuyi was also amazed at Zhou Zhi's ability to change his face like this, and it was the first time she had come across this kind of Chinese food etiquette. Thanks to Zhou Zhi's eloquent smile, coupled with her godfather's banter, she just stood there Smile, you can get big bonus points.

Especially Jiang Qiao. Today, her daughter was dragged to the People's Mall by her sister-in-law. After some dressing up, she turned into a fairy girl, and she almost didn't recognize her.

Seeing his daughter, under the ingenious guidance of Zhou Zhi's wedding emcee, obediently pouring glasses to the elders, and then clinking glasses and congratulating each other, Jiang Qiao couldn't help but sigh with emotion, there is a girl in my family who has just grown up...
