Little Life on An American Ranch
Chapter 403: awkward meal
Chapter 403 An awkward meal
This meal was quite embarrassing, and Kate didn't say a word. No matter who talked to her, she just looked at them. She looked at them rather furiously, so they talked and laughed in less than five minutes. The entire dinner table was completely silent today.
Jian Heng doesn't like the so-called eating without talking and sleeping without talking, and he doesn't regard the spoon not touching the bowl when eating as the so-called gentleman's dining etiquette. Jian Heng believes that you should pay attention to eating out, because you have to consider the impact of the sound on others.
If there are so many rules for eating at home, there is no need for it. Home is a place to make people comfortable, not a place to be disturbed. If there are so many rules in the home, the home will not be a home.
Because Kate is the mother of Barley and Wheat, Jian Heng can't say much, but after that, he decided not to eat with Kate if he could not eat with her, tired! Tired!
Even Ning Ning and Xiao An didn't feel comfortable eating this meal. The two children who always ate two big bowls didn't want to sit on the edge of the table after eating just one bowl. The foot is gone.
"The fish is good, everyone should try it!" Jian Heng couldn't bear the atmosphere after eating for 20 minutes. He stretched out his chopsticks and ordered the fish in front of him, and said to everyone on the table.
When he said this, Jian Heng didn't look at the expression on Kate's face.
Jian Anan didn't feel very comfortable here, so she responded to her younger brother, and then put a chopstick fish into his father Jian Zhenhua's bowl.
The fish is really good. After the red tilapia is steamed, the red on the surface of the fish skin completely disappears and turns into a light orange color. After the fish skin is uncovered, there are deeper fine lines on the fish.
Not only does it look beautiful, but the fish tastes fresh and tender. Ordinary tilapia is very fishy. It must be aniseed to remove the fishy smell, but the fishy smell produced in the lake is much less. After soaking in the marinade for about ten minutes, In addition, the bean drum with steamed fish is steamed in a bamboo cage, and there is no fishy smell at all.
The biggest characteristic of this kind of fish is that it has few spines. Apart from the main spine and the rib spine on the abdomen, there are no other spines on the fish. Of course, there are still many fin spines on the back, but as a fish that For the Chinese, what does this stab mean.
Not to mention Chinese, even Matthew, a young American bear, ate a whole one.
Yang Bin said: "The fish is good!"
Mr. Yao also nodded with a smile and said: "This fish is perfect, except for the carp of the Yellow River. This fish is really first-class. It is not only tender after steaming green, but also has a special fragrance, a bit like the one from my hometown. Don’t you agree with the aroma of the ripe pickled melon?”
Hearing what old master Yao said, Jian Zhenhua nodded immediately: "Don't say it, I always feel that this smell is a bit familiar, what you said really smells like a little pickled melon.
"When is Xiaobaogua?" Damai didn't quite understand, and asked Jian Heng.
What does she understand about the three words "little paogua" separately? When they are put together, Damai can't understand Chinese. This time, Damai asked the wrong person, and Jian Heng didn't know what "little paogua" was. Way to give barley a definite explanation.
"Maybe it's a small melon from our hometown," Jian Heng said casually.
At this time, Mr. Yao immediately exposed Jian Heng's lies: "Small pickled melons are not melons, but a kind of grass. In the past, some people liked to put these under the cage when they steamed red meat when there were weddings and weddings. Grass stalks, after the meat is steamed, there is a faint aroma of small pickled melons, at that time... ".
Speaking of this, Mr. Yao swallowed his saliva, which shows what kind of memories the red meat steamed from small pickled melons brought to his childhood.
"I'm done eating." Kate couldn't listen anymore, reached out and picked up the napkin at hand, picked up a corner with one finger, gently wiped the corner of her mouth, and then gently straightened the napkin, Standing up thoughtfully, he left the table.
Everyone looked at the figure of Kaisheng and disappeared at the door. Although no one showed it on their faces, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
"This fish is really good. It's much tastier than crucian carp. The main reason is that it has fewer thorns and tender meat." Seeing the difficult mother-in-law leave, Sun Xiuying immediately raised her voice. A table of people ate the most eye-catching food on the table: tilapia!
Jian Zhenhua picked up a chopstick of fish, and asked Jian Heng while eating, "Why didn't you bring out such a good fish earlier?"
"I forgot it myself. It was Zhao Changshan who let it in. When you didn't see Zhao Changshan picking up the fish just now, you looked dazed. He even forgot to let go of these fish. How could I remember?" Jian Heng explained.
After speaking, seeing Mr. Yao, Jian Heng asked again: "Mr., do your two precious apprentices get along well? It's best to be as loyal as them!"
"If you want to say they are stupid, just say so, what else can you say is honesty!" Old Master Yao said to Jian Heng with a smile.
"Okay, silly, are you satisfied now, answer my question" Jian Heng asked.
"Then I want to ask, what do you want someone to do?" Mr. Yao asked.
Jian Heng said: "Didn't I build a sun room there? It's a big place without people to take care of it, and there shouldn't be too many people. Five or six people who work hard, the salary is 40,000 to 50,000 dollars a year. If you do well, you will get a bonus.”
"This salary is not low!" Mai Mai took a look at Jian Heng, but in her heart she was thinking about the salary she and her sister had when they came here, and suddenly felt a little unbalanced, thinking that they must talk to Jian Heng in private later. Say it well.
"There must be someone willing to do this salary. If you can hire those illegal workers, you can hire three of them at this price," said Old Man Yao.
Hearing about black work, Jian Heng quickly shook his hand: "Forget it, it's not worth it to save this little money and take such a big risk!"
If it was Jian Heng before Trump came to power, it would be okay to say, but at this time, Jian Heng doesn't want to take any risks and be used as a rake by the immigration bureau.
The fines in the United States are not so gentle. The fine for fake vaccines is only more than three million yuan, which is not as much as the price of a car for someone else’s daughter-in-law. The United States was only caught, and the punishment of that guy will definitely make you remember for the rest of your life, it is heartbreaking. Maybe it can get you in and squat for a few years.
Before Jian Heng could speak, Mr. Yao denied it himself: "Forget it, forget about the black workers!"
After finishing speaking, he took a look at everyone, and then explained in Chinese: "The last time I went to Chinatown with Zhao Changshan to find someone, I originally wanted to find some newcomers, who knows how many people have met, so I have no intention of seeing you again. He's a young man in his twenties, he doesn't want to suffer anything, when he heard that he was in Montana, and the apprentice's salary was only 1,000 knives a month, he shook his head like an electric fan, he didn't think he was serving others The only thing I despise is the low wages. If I were their father, I would not let them come to the United States to embarrass themselves.”
Mr. Yao got a little angry as he spoke. As an older generation, he doesn’t understand that there are some young people nowadays. When it comes to spending money, they can squeeze out half of their salary to reward the anchor, but they are not willing to give it to the host. My parents added new clothes.
"You are so angry, you are not a child of your family!" Jian Heng said with a smile.
Jian Heng has seen a lot of people like the one Mr. Yao said. After coming to the United States, one by one, he feels that he is a dragon among men, or that the United States is full of money, and he just bends down to pick it up.
When they really arrive in the United States, these people don’t want to do any work at the beginning. Don’t think it’s hard or tired. After they eat up and spend all their money, they will understand that the Americans will not give it to them. They pay a penny.
Imagine that foreigners can apply for universities in China because they are not Chinese, and get tens of thousands of yuan in subsidies a year. It is even more difficult to even think about it. Hygiene went.
A thoughtful child understands life, and if he is uncertain, he will be brave and try to live a personal life. Most people started to follow the crowd, spent their whole lives working in restaurants, and when they died, they were squeezed into rented cubicles of less than ten square meters per person. Only when they go back to China do they dress up like dogs, to show off that they are Americans, the real Americans, in front of their relatives and friends.
"Oh, I just don't know what these kids think" Mr. Yao couldn't figure it out, how could people be so lazy.
Yang Bin said with a smile: "To use a popular saying these days, these children are so-called giant babies!"
"The topic is off topic again. I'm asking if you have any suitable people to introduce to be farmers." Jian Heng came back to his senses and asked with a smile.
Master Yao said: "I'll call them when I go back and ask for help."
"That's fine. When I go to Zhao Changshan's house later, I will also ask him if he has any acquaintances. I just want to be honest and work hard. If I do a good job, I won't knock the door. Boss, the treatment can only be good or bad." Jian Heng nodded and said.
Everyone knows this, of course, Mr. Yao will not talk about it here, but Toby has a deep understanding. Working here at Jian Heng is comfortable. If you want to be comfortable as a migrant worker, the first thing is to give a comfortable salary. Pay attention What is given is comfort rather than greed. Comfortable people know their own value, while greedy people tend to overestimate their own value, and nine times out of ten they will play tricks at work.
There was no Kate on the table, and the atmosphere suddenly returned to its usual state. As soon as the table became lively, the two little guys who said they had finished eating also returned to the table, and wiped their mouths after eating another bowl of rice. Meimei patted her little belly and went to play.
