Food starts with noodles

The celery leaves in the tray are still green, and the flour seems to have covered the green leaves with a layer of hoarfrost.
looks down...
Quite appetizing.
Because of the short steaming time, the celery leaves are loose and easy to remove from the tray.
After putting all the celery leaves into the basin, Xu Zhuo took the bowl of mixed sauce and poured it in.
Then, he took a pair of chopsticks in each hand, and quickly shook the celery leaves in the basin.
A scent of garlic wafted out of the pot, and the smell of acetic acid was also mixed with it, which made people greedy unconsciously.
There was no one around at the moment, and Xu Zhuo was a little excited, so he stuffed a chopstick into his mouth and tasted it.
The steamed celery leaves have a slight bitter taste when you first enter the mouth, but when paired with balsamic vinegar and mashed garlic, it whets your appetite, and you can't help but want to have another bite.
But Xu Zhuo didn't dare to eat more.
In more than two hours, the engagement ceremony will begin, and then someone will definitely make him and Yu Keke kiss.
However, my mouth is full of garlic...
In order not to cause any psychological shadow to my daughter-in-law, I'd better hold it back, anyway, celery leaves are available every day, and you can cook them when you want to eat them.
"Why do you cook something delicious? Don't you want to take advantage of today's special day to make a commemorative dish?"
Guo Xingwang passed by here, and he came over curiously when he smelled the good smell.
But when he saw the green dish in front of Xu Zhuo, he wisely shut his mouth.
so green...
It doesn't look like the color that a commemorative dish should have.
Xu Zhuo didn't think much about it: "I tried steaming some celery leaves, and the taste seems to be pretty good..."
Guo Xingwang took a sip with the chopsticks, and said with a face of approval: "Hey! This taste is really good, Xu Zhuo doesn't seem to have this dish in our store, why don't I bring it out to Mr. Guan for him to taste ?”
Xu Zhuo nodded: "Okay, then you can go."
It's good to take it away, lest I can't help but eat it again.
After Guo Xingwang left, Xu Zhuo began to think about how to get rid of bad breath.
He used his mobile phone to look up the techniques for removing the garlic smell, first ate a handful of raw peanuts, then ate a few lettuce leaves, and then ate an apple.
However, after he left the kitchen, he was immediately smelled by the waiter outside.
"Mr. Xu, aren't you going to get engaged today? Why do you still eat garlic? Hurry up and chew some gum to get rid of the smell, otherwise it will affect your image too much."
"Chewing gum doesn't work, you have to drink milk, Mr. Xu, listen to me, drinking milk is the best..."
Finally, Xu Zhuo drank a bottle of milk and chewed two pieces of gum.
As a result, when the engagement ceremony was about to start, my stomach started to growl.
What made him even more speechless was that the smell of garlic in his mouth was still not completely removed.
And because of the milk, not only does my mouth smell of garlic, but also the fishy smell of milk...
"Next, it's time to exchange tokens of love. Xu Zhuo, what tokens of love have you prepared for your future daughter-in-law, show them to everyone."
Holding the microphone, Meng Liwei urged Xu Zhuo to show the token of love.
Enduring the discomfort in his stomach, Xu Zhuo took out a jewelry box from his suit pocket, raised it casually, and then blinked at Meng Liwei desperately, signaling him to finish the ceremony quickly.
As a result, Meng Liwei became even more enthusiastic: "Open it and have a look. If you don't open it, who knows what's inside. If it's a can ring, it's not deceiving our beautiful Cocoa."
Gee!
Xu Zhuo looked at him helplessly.
Lao Meng, you are not engaged yet, and you will regret it if you make such a fuss.
With this hesitation, Meng Liwei became more energetic, and kept urging Xu Zhuo to open it quickly.
Boss Xu glanced at Meng Liwei, raised his hand and opened the jewelry box.
Inside lay a diamond ring quietly.
Judging by the size and color of this diamond, it should not be cheap.
Seeing Xu Zhuo's eyes, Meng Liwei suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart.
Sure enough, after Boss Xu showed off the ring, he pretended to pick up the microphone.
"Although everyone says that buying a diamond ring in this day and age is paying an IQ tax, but I think you still have to buy one for engagement. Otherwise, what can you use to prove your loyalty to love? Are you talking in plain language?"
Xu Zhuo paused for a while, turned his face away, looked at Meng Liwei and asked, "Lao Meng, do you think I'm right? By the way, you're going to get engaged next month too. Do you want to buy a ring like this for Zheng Jia? It’s less than 20 yuan, which is very cheap.”
Meng Liwei: "..."
Chapter 773 Do you want to be a bandit pork liver?
Meng Liwei regretted coaxing Xu Zhuo.
It's not that he is worried that Zheng Jia will clamor for a diamond ring when he and Zheng Jia get engaged next month.
In fact, with Zheng Jia's personality, even if Meng Liwei really went to buy a diamond ring, he would stop him.
The top priority for the two of them now is to buy a house, a diamond ring or something...
Can that thing be used as a wedding room?
The reason why Meng Liwei now regrets that he should not make a fuss is because he gave Boss Xu the opportunity to show off his wealth for nothing.
Second, he was generalized by Boss Xu.
For love, he bought a diamond ring worth nearly 20 yuan.
What about yourself?
You can't just say nothing, right?
When he was racking his brains to think of a way to turn his head around, Zhou Wen on the side deftly changed the subject.
"Boss Xu is really generous. The offer is a 20 diamond ring, but Ke Ke has also prepared a token of love. Let's see what she has prepared."
This interruption made Meng Liwei out of embarrassment.
He was honest this time, and planned to finish the process quickly according to Xu Zhuo's idea.
To save Xu Zhuo from saying anything that would embarrass him.
Yu Keke got impatient for a long time. After hearing Zhou Wen's words, she happily walked to the side and took out a square box.
This box is bigger than Xu Zhuo's jewelry box, and it doesn't look like a small thing like a ring pendant.
Yu Keke didn't hold back, and opened it directly, and there was a Hermès belt inside.
"I heard that in the engagement custom in the Central Plains, the woman will give the man a belt so that he can be tied to him firmly, so I bought this belt...do you like it?"
Yu Ke looked at Xu Zhuo and asked the last sentence.
Xu Zhuo looked at the belt that Yu Keke bought, and felt a little...
Disappointed!
Because this belt looks too vulgar, especially the belt buckle, which is golden in color as a whole, coupled with the widened and thickened H-shaped LOGO shape, there is no beauty at all, but it has a strong Strong nouveau riche atmosphere.
This is Hermes, known as No.1 in the fashion industry?
I'm afraid the owner of Shanxi Coal Co., Ltd. was invited to be the designer, right?
This thing has a fart fashion atmosphere, doesn't it?
Boss Xu complained wildly in his heart, and even wondered if his daughter-in-law who had never been married was cheated by those purchasing agents...
When he was thinking wildly, Meng Liwei came over, raised his hand and took the belt out of the box, and while showing it to everyone, he muttered in a low voice: "I heard from Jiajia that this belt costs 10,000+...you two can really make it!"
When Xu Zhuo heard this, he looked at this tacky belt and suddenly felt...
It's not that ugly either.
After exchanging tokens of love, Meng Liwei made a few more good-natured jokes, and ended the engagement ceremony hastily.
"Why did you end so quickly? Why don't you let them kiss?"
Zhou Wen was a little dissatisfied with Meng Liwei's ending so quickly.
Meng Liwei pointed to Boss Xu, who was in a hurry to go to the bathroom, and said helplessly, "Xu Zhuo's stomach seems to be a little uncomfortable today, and I'm worried that some uncontrollable accident will happen after a long time..."
Soon, lunch came, and all the guests gathered together to start eating.
When Xu Zhuo came out of the bathroom, Meng Liwei was waiting at the bathroom door.
"Wow, you actually have diarrhea on such an important day... What did you eat?"
Xu Zhuo washed his hands, recounted what he ate in the morning, and then said with emotion: "I don't believe in the ways to get rid of the garlic smell on the Internet anymore, what a motherfucker."
Meng Liwei was delighted when he heard it: "It's enough to rinse your mouth with mouthwash after eating, and the earth methods you checked have mediocre effects."
Xu Zhuo took two antidiarrheal medicines, and then made a round of toasts with a wine glass, and the engagement banquet this time was considered to be over.
Of course, there are still some follow-up procedures. For example, the Xu family will give Yu Keke a gift, and the Yu family also prepared a meeting ceremony for Xu Zhuo.
But these are all outside the ceremony, the two families can do it in private, and don't need to put it on the table.
After the engagement banquet, accompanied by Chen Guifang, Yu Keke went to a driving school in the suburbs to sign up.
Summer vacation is coming, Yu Keke plans to take advantage of the vacation to pass the driver's license test.
The reason why I signed up in the provincial capital instead of Yangzhou...
Naturally, he wanted to be with Boss Xu.
In order to motivate this girl, Xu Zhuo made a special promise to Ke Ke.
"I will buy you a mini Cooper when you get your driver's license, so that when you want to come to the provincial capital, you can just drive there."
Yu Keke was overjoyed immediately.
Originally, she applied for the driving school just to find a reason to stay in the provincial capital.
Now that I had the promise to buy a car, I was immediately full of motivation, and I pulled Chen Guifang to sign up.
In the afternoon, Xu Wenhai accompanied Yu Changjiang, Pang Shijie and others around the provincial capital.
Although there are not many scenic spots in the provincial capital, there are still places worth visiting.
For example, a museum is a good place to go.
Naturally, Xu Zhuo didn't go out with these middle-aged people, but went back to the kitchen, chatting with Guan Junjie about the steamed celery leaves he made in the morning.
"Senior Brother Guan, what do you think of the taste? We haven't steamed vegetables in our store yet, do you want to try something new?"
Guan Junjie had a good impression of the steamed celery leaves: "The taste is good, but the types are too single, so let's steam a few more tomorrow and let the staff in the store try it first, and try new ones if possible. "
Xu Zhuo's mind was full of the tasks of the sixth ring, but he didn't dare to ask other people to help, for fear of being judged as a violation by the system.
"I can do it by myself tomorrow morning. You should be busy with your work. Don't be distracted by this matter."
After the negotiation, Guan Junjie continued to work on his affairs.
Just as Xu Zhuo was about to go upstairs to rest for a while, Yuan Desheng sneaked in.
"Xiaozhuo, are you not busy now? Why don't we make bandit pork liver today?"
When Tian Chengrun was showing off the lychee meat a few days ago, Yuan Desheng wanted to cook a Hunan dish to show, but he gave up because there was no fresh pork liver at that time.
In the next few days, there was the opening ceremony and the engagement banquet. Xu Zhuo was busy all the time, and Yuan Desheng was too embarrassed to disturb him.
Now that he was finally free, Yuan Desheng immediately came to find him.
He couldn't wait any longer.
Xu Zhuo said with some embarrassment: "Grandpa Yuan, Ke Ke has signed up for the driving school and is not in the shop right now."
Yuan Desheng was immediately disappointed.
In the past few days, Tian Chengrun replayed the lychee meat video made by Yu Keke every day, which greatly stimulated Yuan Desheng.
