Chapter 499: How to eat snails
Chapter 499 How to eat snails
Barley Wheat entered the door, and began to sniff and sniff: "What's the smell?"
"It's just in time to come back, sit down quickly" Jian Heng saw the two sisters entered the door, and immediately called them to sit down.
Balley and Wheat sat down, looked curiously at the large pot of snails in the middle of the table between Jian Heng and Mr. Yao, and asked almost at the same time, "Why don't you two eat it?"
Jian Heng replied: "We are waiting for you to be together!"
"We're already here!" Wheat asked puzzled.
Old Master Yao said: "Besides you, there is also Old Man Yao. The old guy said he will be here soon!"
Speaking of which, Mr. Yao said to Jian Heng: "Go and see if the beer in the refrigerator is cold enough?"
Jian Heng stood up after hearing this, walked to the front of the refrigerator, opened the refrigerator door, reached out and picked up a few bottles of beer and put them on the table.
As soon as the beer was placed, the old man Yao opened the door and walked in. Like barley and wheat, he smelled the fragrance as soon as he entered, and praised: "It's so fragrant, you know it's delicious when you smell it ".
"Hurry up, I'll wait for you, haven't you noticed?" Seeing Mr. Yao enter the door, Mr. Yao immediately motioned for everyone to start. He opened the beer in front of him first, took a sip and then had a beautiful drink. I grabbed a snail and put it in my mouth to **** it up.
Jian Heng didn't fall behind. He also opened a bottle of beer and drank with the old man. He didn't care at all that the old man was still standing at the door and didn't take a seat.
The old man Yao felt that this was a bit exaggerated. He walked to the table in two steps, sat down, reached for a snail and put it in his mouth. After taking a sip of the soup, he couldn't help but praise: "It's really delicious in the world."
At this time, Mr. Yao had already eaten two or three in his mouth. Hearing the words, he boasted and said: "It's up to you to say, the delicacy produced in the lake, plus my craftsmanship, it's hard to say whether it's delicious or not."
The old man Yao sat down with great determination, and snatched the beer bottle in front of Jian Heng as soon as he stretched out his hand. Seeing Jian Heng looking at him, he couldn't help opening his mouth and said: "Young people don't know how to respect the old, I will sit down." I didn’t wink at all, I don’t know how to bring me a bottle of beer, I don’t want iced ones, it’s a bit too cold to drink iced ones, normal temperature is fine.”
Just as Jian Heng was about to say something, Mai Mai turned around and picked up a bottle of beer from the ground and put it in front of Mr. Yao: "Here! Mr. Yao, your beer."
"Wheat still has eyes!" Mr. Yao happily returned the beer in his hand to Jian Heng, picked up the beer in front of him, twisted it lightly, unscrewed the cap and poured it.
Xiaomai saw the three men scrambling to eat the snails. After a while, a small pile of large snail shells was piled up in front of each of them. She was very puzzled and asked, "Why do you eat the snails so quickly?"
Jian Heng listened and found that the two sisters, Barley and Mai, were not eating snails, but soup. There were only three or four snail shells in front of the two sisters. Now the two sisters are dipping the snails in their hands into the soup. Instigate the taste.
"How can you eat snails like this?" Jian Heng looked at the two silly girls a little speechless, and immediately corrected them.
Who knows that the two sisters still have plausible words: "The snail meat is not delicious, it is hard and has no taste. On the contrary, we think the best taste is the soup. It is a bit too heavy if you drink it alone. It is better to use this It tastes better as a dip.
Jian Heng thought about it for a while, and felt that what the two sisters, Barley and Wheat, had a little truth to it. At least half of the snails were eaten with soup. Without good soup, the snails would not be delicious, especially the big snail meat. It really doesn't taste too delicious.
Although the reasoning makes sense, eating snails and only dipping snails into the soup feels a bit silly, but it’s hard to explain it to barley and wheat.
Master Yao is a little bit bad. When he heard what Damai and Wheat said, he immediately started to tease: "Look, it's still the essence of the snail that was eaten by Damai and Wheat. We all ate a piece of fur!"
Seeing Barley and Wheat's faces turned pale, several black lines immediately hung on Jian Heng's forehead.
Without waiting for Jian Heng to speak, Mr. Yao over there clarified the matter: "Don't listen to his old nonsense, girl, eat snail meat, if you eat it like this, you will be laughed at in China, remember to eat meat? Wrong, if you drink the wrong soup, you will be laughed at.”
Balley and Mai looked suspiciously at Mr. Yao, then went to look at Jian Heng again, seeing the serious expressions on their faces, they realized that they had indeed eaten wrongly.
However, the two sisters are now a bit on the fence, and even if they are wrong, they still want to find an excuse for themselves: "Why do you want to eat meat when the soup is delicious? The meat of this thing is hard and has no juice. Eat it." It feels like rubber...".
Everyone has eaten snail meat, so naturally they know that it is a bit hard. Most of the time when they eat it in their mouths, they feel that it has no taste, and it does taste like soup, but no one has eaten it like the two sisters for a long time. .
"You lied to us!" Xiaomai pointed at Mr. Yao and smiled.
Master Yao pretended to be innocent: "It's obviously like this! Do you think I agree with you and you are wrong?"
Master Yao and Damai and Xiaomai were talking, when suddenly there was a knock on the door.
Jian Heng thought it was someone from the ranch, and shouted at the door: "Come in!"
Waiting for the door to open, she found that the person who came in was not an employee of the ranch, but a girl, and a girl she knew, either someone else or a former neighbor, the little girl Rebecca from the O'Brien family.
"Rebecca!? Why are you here?" Seeing this girl, Jian Heng was a little strange, because this little girl should be at work now, and the business of the bar is so good now, how could it be that she is free to come to my place at this time.
Before Jian Heng could ask the next question, Mr. Yao said, "Rebecca is the female apprentice I told you about. How is it?"
Jian Heng was stunned for a moment, and after thinking for a while, he couldn't help but smiled wryly: "Old man, you are really capable of tossing around, no matter what you say now, Rebecca is also under Sara's subordinate, and you poached someone's corner here quietly , isn't that kind of rude?"
After hearing this, Rebecca said quickly, "I've talked to Sara, and she has no problem."
Rebecca regrets a little now, she didn't agree to what Jian Heng asked her to work on the ranch. For now, the best nearby job is to work for Jian Heng. Although the business of the bar is good, but the business is good because the boss makes a lot of money, and the income to be paid is still very limited.
It is impossible to get a high salary for a job that anyone in the society can do, just like a waiter in a bar, anyone can do it, and you can only get the minimum wage. Just change someone else.
But Jian Heng's ranch is different. In other words, after several months of experience in the society, Rebecca finally understands a truth. She doesn't study well, and she doesn't have a degree in hand. The best way to fill her stomach is to learn a subject. craft.
It is obvious that the best place to learn to make money and get in touch with her is Mr. Yao, not to mention that many big stars now like Mr. Yao to give them massages. It must be good to learn this skill. . Besides, considering the current situation, Rebecca has no better choice.
"Come and sit down first, let's eat some snails." Jian Heng couldn't come to a conclusion for a while, so he asked Rebecca to sit down and eat something.
Rebecca is not interested in eating. She is here on leave. If this can be done, she is ready to come. If not, she has to go back to work in the bar. In any case, her first consideration is to eat and eat to fill her stomach. The current Rebecca is no longer the eldest lady of the past, and she has to face the problem of survival every day.
"No, I'll go back and wait for your news," Rebecca said.
When Jian Heng saw the girl turned to leave, he was suddenly moved. He thought that O'Brien and himself had been neighbors for a few years, and the only girl in their family could still get along. Now that it was like this, I couldn't help but stretch out my hand, so I called out to stop the girl.
"Rebecca, the work here is not easy to do. Even if you are a strong young man, your waist will hurt if you press it down for half an hour. Can you, a girl, survive?" Jian Heng asked.
Rebecca's answer was very straightforward and realistic: "What I'm thinking about now is not whether I will get out of the job or not, but how to have a better life. I don't want to think about being a barmaid for the rest of my life. I want to learn a little bit more. A craft that can earn a living".
"Okay, if there is no problem with Sara, I agree." Jian Heng nodded and agreed.
Rebecca smiled happily when she heard this, and then looked eagerly at Mr. Yao.
Master Yao said: "Tomorrow, you and Sara will hand over, and come to work in these two days."
When Rebecca heard this, she hummed happily and walked out the door with Xiao ran.
