Chapter 302 Title
Even if there is an explanation for dancing with the Great God and Fu Shui, even she knows that it is a superstitious activity and what its connotation is.
But what’s going on with burning paper in the yard?
Is there any scientific explanation?
"Which bank does the paper money we burn usually go to?" Alston was full of curiosity about Chinese customs and asked according to his own logic regardless of what Long Juan thought.
Money should be deposited in a bank, even in another world.
Lin Jing said calmly: "Of course it's Tiandi Bank."
Auston hadn't heard of it, but said he already knew it, "Can I burn more?"
"Not yet."
Auston was puzzled: "Why?"
Lin Jing explained seriously (nonsense): "Tiandi Bank is controlled by the gods of China. It has only recently begun to connect with international business. If there is a sudden excess of foreign exchange, it will cause inflation."
Auston expressed his understanding, "Then when China has more money to burn, I will burn some more for my grandmother."
Kuang Rulan felt that Lin Jing was a liar, but she had no evidence.
She won't be stupid enough to expose it.
Burning paper money was just a small step. Soon Jack moved the table out of the room. Su Qing and Kuang Rulan kept placing various ingredients on the table, such as spinach, sprouts, lettuce, fried tofu, and yuba. , egg dumplings, fish balls, meat slices...
"Is this hot pot?" Long Juan asked.
Lin Jing brought out some ingredients and said with a smile: "That's right, Mr. Alston has never had ketchup dipped in hot pot. I'll let him try it while the weather is nice."
Auston was a little unconvinced: "I don't want to eat ketchup for hot pot, I just want to try ketchup for hot pot. I have eaten your Chinese hot pot, and I have eaten it in several places, although the taste is not the same." It’s the same, but I’ve eaten both.”
Long Juan...don't you just want to eat hot pot with ketchup?
Tomato sauce for dipping into hot pot sounds weird.
Thinking of the food she ate abroad, she really felt that the food from her own country was more delicious.
Auston's Chinese... may have made it difficult to communicate, but rather than speaking English to them, he seemed more interested in speaking broken Chinese.
The reason is that if you meet a peerless master who lives in seclusion in the future, you can use Chinese to request apprenticeship.
Long Juan's world view was completely refreshed. No wonder the end of science is metaphysics. No wonder she didn't learn "traditional culture" well.
Qin Zichuan brought the hot pot, a very special pot with an S-shaped iron sheet inside, half red soup and half clear soup.
The moment she saw him, Long Juan felt familiar. It took her a long time to recognize that this person was actually Qin Zichuan. In the past, Qin Zichuan seemed to be someone else's child. ...the family cook.
This scene can also be called fantasy, but the people gathered together still take it for granted? !
Long Juan didn't know Uncle Lu, so when Lin Jing called him grandpa, she also called him grandpa.
When Lin Jing introduced that Long Juan was tutoring her in English, Uncle Lu smiled as if Lin Jing was his grandson, "Thank you, Teacher Long, for taking the trouble."
Long Juan felt that she was a little worried before, but now she feels that she is worrying blindly. With so many people, only Uncle Lu seems to be normal.
Uncle Lu didn't say much to Long Juan and just went to talk to Jack.
Don't speak English. Uncle Lu's official Chinese language is not standard, but the two of them can still talk and laugh.
She used to be very concerned about how standard her spoken pronunciation should be, but now it seems that she only needs translation.
Auston pointed to the dishes on the table and said, "Isn't this colorful?"
Lin Jing said: "No."
Auston asked, "What color is that?"
Lin Jing couldn't think of anything for a moment, why must it be "sexy"?
Qin Zichuan said: "It's beautiful and delicious, and it's both salty and salty."
Auston: "Yes, that's the color!"
Qin Zichuan nodded slightly.
After Kang Xiaojun came back, the hotpot cooking officially started.
Auston picked ketchup for himself, then looked at Lin Jing and said, "Sister Jingjing, you are too cunning, that is not chili sauce."
Lin Jing's expression didn't change: "I like to use fermented bean curd as a dipping sauce when eating hot pot."
Auston: "Why do you have so many likes?"
Lin Jing was even more proud and said: "That's because China has so many delicious foods."
Alston was unconvinced: "I've been to China a lot. Why haven't I eaten much delicious food?"
Lin Jing said without mercy: "As a foreigner, you always like to go to those fancy big restaurants. What you eat is the kind of food that is not bad in taste and delicious. Naturally, there are only those kinds of food that you come back to over and over again."
Auston was even more unconvinced, "When I was eating at your house, there were only those kinds of things I turned over."
Lin Jing: "There are only a few things that my family likes. It's normal to choose a few over and over again. When you can speak Chinese more fluently and go to the alley to eat common people's snacks, there will be a variety of varieties."
Auston dipped a piece of meat in ketchup and frowned with barely concealed expression, "Oh, it tastes terrible. I should have used black pepper."
Long Juan was a little nervous, but Lin Jing pretended not to notice and ate her own food.
Qin Zichuan handed him a small bowl with prepared sauce: "Try this."
"Chili sauce?" Auston looked wary.
Lin Jing turned her face away, and Long Juan saw that she was smiling at her face, so she had reason to suspect that she had tricked Auston with chili sauce.
Qin Zichuan said: "It's slightly spicy, try it."
As if he felt that Qin Zichuan had higher integrity than Lin Jing, Auston took the sauce he prepared and tried it, "Very good, Zichuan, you are really great!"
Qin Zichuan just nodded slightly.
Kuang Rulan was eating happily, and from time to time she would fight for a piece of meat with Kang Xiaojun. She won more and lost less. She was a little dissatisfied after losing this time. "How can you call Brother Chuan Zichuan? Zichuan can only be called Zichuan by Sister Jingjing."
Auston was puzzled, but don't bully me for being a foreigner, "How could it be? I've never heard Sister Jingjing call him Zichuan."
Kuang Rulan seemed to have something wrong with her memory, "Sister Jingjing, what do you call Brother Chuan?"
Lin Jing was competing with a beef ball. After picking it up several times and failing to pick it up, Qin Zichuan used a slotted spoon to help her scoop it into a bowl.
The two of them ignored this question.
Kang Xiaojun said excitedly: "I know, I know."
Kuang Rulan snatched another piece of meat from him, "Little brat, what do you know?"
Kang Xiaojun paused and coughed twice: "Sometimes he calls -" imitating Lin Jing's voice: "Brother Zichuan."
"When nothing happens, call -" imitating Lin Jing's voice: "Qin Zichuan."
The voice was exactly the same as Lin Jing's usual.
