Yunding Ranch

Chapter 244 Hungry
Jamie followed Randy and pushed the cart all the way back to the main house.

There is no need to look for it deliberately, you can see the tall and strong oak tree, the luxuriant branches cover most of the garden, the birds are parked on the treetops, the sun is passing through the branches, the summer noise Contradicting with the tranquility but harmoniously staying on the treetops, the sound of cicadas echoed in the beech forest next to it, as if the summer heat in July had dissipated unconsciously.

At this time, on the passage next to the oak tree, the harvested lavender piled up like a hill, and the mellow purple was really thrilling and magnificent among the large patches of green.

For the first time, Jamie knew that purple and green are such magnificent colors.

Randy parked the cart next to him, "Let's put it here first, and we'll do the rest of the work after lunch. Now I'm too hungry, let's replenish energy first." Randy greeted Jamie and walked in main house.

This morning, the empty main house was very noisy at this time. Jessica was carrying a large basin and walked quickly from the kitchen to the dining room; Carmen and Amber stood behind the sofa, laughing happily; Cole and Brandon stood at the back door Song Lingyi stood beside the coffee table in the hall with a transparent kettle, pouring water for Tony, and at the same time greeted, "Randy, Jamie, come here, drink some herbal tea, relieve the heat." .”

Bustling and bustling, it was a little too lively, even a little noisy.In New York, this is just noise, disturbing other people's lunch break; but in this place, there is a kind of natural harmony, as if life should be like this.

Jamie walked towards Song Lingyi and asked curiously, "What is this?"

"Mint tea." Song Lingyi picked up a glass water cup, poured half a cup, and handed it to Jamie, "I also boiled a pot of Houttuynia cordata in the kitchen, but I guess you are not used to drinking it, so I boiled another one. Pot of mint tea."

"I want to try it." The words blurted out before rational control, and I thought about it seriously.Jamie nodded again, "Yes, I want to try it out."

Song Lingyi laughed. In fact, Houttuynia cordata is the best choice for clearing away heat and detoxifying.This morning the sun is extremely hot, everyone has been in the sun for a whole morning, if you don't adjust it, it is estimated that you will feel uncomfortable at night.It's just that everyone doesn't like Houttuynia cordata, and Song Lingyi can't force it.

Now that she heard Jamie's request to try it, she couldn't be happier, "You go to lunch first, and then drink after lunch. Before work in the afternoon, have a drink, can... er, fight against the sun?" Song Lingyi didn't Some words that know how to describe Chinese medicine can only be expressed in the simplest and most straightforward way.

Jamie was at a loss and couldn't understand at all, and the expression full of question marks really made people laugh.Randy patted Jamie on the back, which surprised Jamie—in New York, they don't pat others on the back easily, but when he turned his head, he saw Randy's hearty smile, "No Need to figure out what's going on, you just need to know that Ms. L is the most authoritative spokesperson, and that's enough."

Song Lingyi poured another cup of mint tea and handed it to Randy, "Then why don't you try it?"

Randy got stuck immediately, "Hey, hey, lunch, let's eat lunch first, I'm really hungry." He picked up the mint tea, drank it with his head up, and then walked towards the kitchen.

Jamie and Song Lingyi looked at each other, and Song Lingyi said with a helpless expression, "My child, it's always like this, isn't it?" This made Jamie laugh outright.

After drinking mint tea, Jamie walked into the kitchen, and then saw the food on the table like a buffet, but the content of the food was really strange, "This is...?"

Lu Li was standing next to him. When he heard the question, he answered casually, "It's too late to make lunch at noon, so let's just deal with it."

The lavender group has been busy all morning without a moment's rest; the same is true for Brandon, Song Lingyi and Lu Huaijin. The work of the cattle, sheep and horses is definitely not so easy. They don't have time to take care of the garden and Cheese, let alone make lunch.

"This is pizza. We ordered four different flavors. You can choose according to your own preference." Lu Li briefly introduced, "This is steamed stuffed bun, a large dumpling; this is steamed bun, which can be regarded as Chinese. Bread; this is pasta with tomato sauce, with the most special recipe." The so-called special recipe is Laoganma. "The salad next to it was freshly made just now, but we have to wait a while, and the olive oil hasn't been poured on it yet."

The variety of food is very limited and can even be said to be rough.The steamed buns and steamed buns are all made before, just take them out and steam them; the pizza is a takeaway, delivered from New Braunfels; the only thing I made temporarily today is pasta, but it’s just boiled noodles, tomato The sauce is canned, and Laoganma is ready-made.

However, on a busy working day, they couldn't ask for more, a simple lunch, filling the stomach is the most important thing.

Jamie still wants to complain, a morning of hard work, in exchange for such a simple fast food?It was so frustrating, even overwhelmingly irritable.

But looking at the other people in front of him, everyone was eating and eating with great pleasure, even Taylor and Alison, without exception; Jamie suddenly realized that the labor was not over yet, and there was still time in the afternoon. There is a lot of work waiting.

So, Jamie swallowed all his complaints and looked at Lu Li, "What about tonight?" Before Lu Li could answer, he asked urgently, "Can we continue to eat hot pot for dinner?"

Seeing Jamie's expectant expression, Lu Li couldn't help laughing, "Are you sure your digestive system is normal today?" After eating so much chili yesterday, it should be unbearable today, "If you don't dislike Chinese cuisine If so, then just wait tonight, there will definitely be surprises. Trust me."

Jamie pouted, still obsessed with hot pot, but he didn't continue to complain after all.

After looking at the dishes on the table, after a moment of hesitation, Jamie stretched towards the steamed buns—pizza and pasta are the flavors he is familiar with, and if the buns and steamed buns are not tasty, he can always choose pizza as a backup .

"Father, you should eat steamed buns, steamed buns are really delicious!" Anbo recommended enthusiastically, and then raised the steamed buns in his hand, "These two are different. There are things in the steamed buns, but there is nothing in the steamed buns." .”

Jamie couldn't help laughing, so let's continue stuffing the steamed bun into his mouth, and took a bite. Originally, he thought that it would be impolite to put it down after picking it up, but he didn't expect that the delicate taste immediately made Jay Mi caught up in it - how should I describe it?Soft, but very chewy, without any taste, but with a little sweetness of rice noodles, clean and refreshing, but people can't help but swallow.

Jamie lifted it up, took another bite, and chewed carefully, the wonderful sweetness jumped between his lips and teeth, "Wow." The sigh overflowed involuntarily, "This, what is this?"

"Steamed buns." It was Li Yitong who explained aloud, he also held a steamed bun in his hand, and Lao Ganma. "Didn't Fourteen just say that? Just treat it as our bread. The dough is kneaded entirely by hand, and the test is the strength and strength of the hands."

To be honest, he hasn't eaten steamed buns for many years, the main reason is that it takes too much effort, and the restaurant doesn't serve them, so Li Huainan and Liu Xiaoyan hardly know how to make such things.Song Lingyi's craftsmanship is really amazing, the strength of the steamed buns is commendable, and I don't know how many times better than pizza.

Jamie nodded involuntarily, and smiled contentedly, "Who did this?"

"Fourteen." There was an answering voice behind him. Not only Jamie was stunned, but Li Yitong was also stunned—he thought it was Song Lingyi who did it. When he turned around, Jamie and Li Yitong saw standing Cole in front of him said, "These are all made by Fourteen."

Li Yitong couldn't help opening his mouth slightly, but he was too surprised to make a sound. It was Jamie who asked, "Can Shisi cook?" Last night's hot pot didn't have any technical content.

Cole shrugged his shoulders with a noncommittal expression, "If you don't believe it, forget it." He bypassed the two people, first took a bun, stuffed it into his mouth, and then took two more buns, skillfully Walking around the dining table, he found milk beside him, poured a large glass, and drank it straight away.

Seeing that only one-third of the steamed buns were left, and half of the steamed buns were left, Jamie didn't care who made them, so he just grabbed two steamed buns and walked around without finishing them. At this time, he reacted After half a beat, his stomach began to growl again, and he realized that he was so hungry that his chest was pressed against his back, and he ate quickly with big mouthfuls, and then poured a glass of milk in a similar manner, and his eyes fell on On the other plate next to it:
Mustard mustard, cold seaweed, cold jellyfish, salad, mayonnaise, mustard, and... old godmother?
Jamie felt as if he had opened the door to a whole new world.

"Isn't anyone eating the pizza?" Randy next to him yelled loudly, and deliberately waved twice beside the pizza, trying to attract everyone's attention, but unfortunately, the effect was really lackluster. He quickly moved towards the bun at the other end Stretching out his hand, "Why don't you do this, it happens every time, you only want to eat pizza after you finish eating the buns, really."

Relatively speaking, steamed buns are still not so popular, and everyone prefers steamed buns.

Jamie stood beside him with a smile on his face. He thought the steamed buns were delicious.

It took less than 10 minutes to eat a lunch, and it was swept away. The speed is too amazing.Jamie felt that he ate too fast, as if he was choking a little, but the feeling of fullness was so real that he sighed with satisfaction, his stomach seemed to be full.

"Houttuynia cordata, who wants to drink?" Song Lingyi's voice came over, and the restaurant, which was so noisy before, suddenly became quiet.Carmen, Amber, and Taylor didn't know why, and looked at everyone blankly. Song Lingyi came over and looked at everyone holding their breath, annoyed and funny, "Then go drink some mint tea, everyone. The sun is even brighter in the afternoon." It's poisonous, don't suffer from heat stroke."
