617 Slate Barbecue in Winter (1/4)
This winter is not too cold. Perhaps it is because of reuniting with his eldest son and granddaughter. Dong Yue'e and Yang Chonggui smile every day, and they seem to become younger and their bodies seem to become much more neat. Especially Yang Chonggui, who circles around his granddaughter and looks happy, and he can't find any sign of the old-fashioned old man before.
In addition to being more harsh when he occasionally scolds Yang Yi, Yang Chonggui is very kind-hearted most of the time, especially in front of Xixi.
Time flies very quickly, and it is late November in the blink of an eye. It is a rare sunny weekend. Yang Yi set up a barbecue in his yard, which is actually a barbecue grill, and used natural volcanic rock slabs to replace the iron rack.
The charcoal burned the stone slabs hot, and the thick steak was released, and it made a terrible sound. The oil in the food penetrated out, and the slabs baked it out with a strong aroma.
Just smelling the initial smell, Xixi next to her danced excitedly and kept shouting with Lan Xin.
Yang Yi sprinkled spices on it, cut two knifes, and applied the sauce. The grilled steak with golden appearance and tender inside made the two girls saliva buzz.
Of course, the chef had to continue grilling. Yang Yi put the grilled steak on a plate covered with lettuce. The green lettuce and the oily steak formed a sharp contrast. He brought it to Murphy and asked her to help cut it open and share it with everyone.
"I want to eat, I want to eat!" Xixi jumped around her mother and didn't care about the two little foodies, but the buns that smelled the fragrance were waving their tails desperately.
One advantage of barbecue on stone slabs is that it is heated evenly. As long as you pay attention to the heat, it will not be easy to burn, and the moisture inside the ingredients will not be lost like when you are directly grilled with charcoal.
Murphy cut two small pieces, waited for a little cooler, and handed them to Xixi and Lan Xin with a fork. The two girls couldn't wait to take a bite. The extremely elastic rib-eye steak tasted great when it bite. After chewing it for two bites, the fragrant gravy filled the mouth. This feeling!
Without description, you can know the taste of Xixi's intoxicating big eyes just by looking at her.
Of course, Murphy cut the remaining steak and divided it into pieces for each person. He came to his senses and found that the meat was gone and Xixi and Lan Xin shouted anxiously.
"Don't worry, Dad is still roasting. The piece just now is just for you to taste the taste and see if it's too salty." Murphy smiled and patted their heads, comforting, "And, I've baked a few more pieces this time, so I'll be sure to eat it."
"I'm not in a hurry to eat it, Murphy, cut this piece open and give it to the child first." Yang Chonggui stuffed his plate back, and his granddaughter's frown really made him feel distressed.
"Dad, they can't give whatever they want. Sometimes, they have to learn to take care of other people's feelings. Even if they like something they really like, they can't keep eating it. They should share it with their friends and family at the same table." Murphy hesitated for a moment and said.
Recently, Yang Chonggui's actions of spoiling Xixi still made Murphy feel a little inappropriate. She talked to Yang Yi privately about this. Yang Yi's attitude is that she is all her own family. If there is anything wrong, just point it out directly. Don't be too reserved, so you'll see the truth!
Yang Chonggui was stunned for a moment. He didn't know that he wanted to leave his meat for his granddaughter to eat. There was so much he said, and he was a little unhappy. The old man had a perfect temper, but he couldn't scold Murphy, so he frowned.
Xixi blinked her big eyes, looked at her mother and grandpa, and she seemed to understand something.
I saw the little girl stepping on the grass and running to my grandfather's side, pulling her clothes, and saying softly: "Grandpa, I don't want you anymore, you can eat it too. The meat roasted by dad is super delicious! Try it!"
As for Lan Xin, she had already surrounded Yang Yi and was eagerly waiting for the next piece of meat.
Listening to his granddaughter's persuasion, Yang Chonggui felt that his unhappiness disappeared. He smiled and started to pick up the piece of meat and said, "Okay, grandpa should eat it?"
Xixi licked her mouth and finally made up her mind to nod: "Eat quickly, otherwise it will be no longer delicious if it is cold."
"You still understand this!" Zheng Shuyi said in surprise.
Another burst of laughter.
"Old man, I think Murphy is right!" Dong Yue'e took advantage of the situation and scolded her, the old man with a childish temper. "The child is not young anymore, and you must understand some rules of being a human being. Tiezi, when Qingzi was young, didn't you teach them benevolence, righteousness, courtesy, wisdom and trustworthiness?"
At that time, Yang Yi and Yang Qing were scolded so much that they stood aside and could not even eat.
I can only say that the son is different from the granddaughter...
"Actually, I'm wrong. I just said it too directly." Murphy also apologized quickly.
"It's okay, you should say it, Dad, I think you are a little too doting on Xixi. This is not good, and the order of the elderly is orderly. There are some truths, so you will teach me!" Yang Yi turned around and interjected with a smile.
Yang Chonggui had actually figured it out a long time ago, but he was desperate to save face and refused to admit his mistake. So he stood up and said, "I'll go barbecue for Xiao Yangxi."
"Grandpa, do you have any barbecue, too?" Xixi jumped and followed her grandpa.
"Little Yangxi, you are underestimating your grandfather! I remember back then, your grandfather caught a pheasant in the forest, wrapped it in soil, buried it, and baked it with fire. It was so delicious..."
"Wow!"
The old are boasting, while the younger ones listen with relish, but they are also interesting.
"Ignore him, this old man has such a strange temper." Dong Yue'e cared for her daughter-in-law.
"By the way, why didn't Huanhuan come today?" Zheng Shuyi asked in confusion, changing the topic.
Murphy explained: "Huanhuan has activities in school today. It is a good thing for them to participate in more club activities and to meet some friends."
...
However, did Yang Huan really go to participate in a club activity?
At this time, Yang Huan appeared outside the Jiangnan Military Region in a car driven by Ding Xiang. She was coming to audition today, and in order to hide it from Yang Yi, she had to make up a reason.
The audition is in a guesthouse outside the Jiangnan Military Region. The filming of "Bright Sword" is also a collaboration with the Jiangnan Military Region. However, the crew has not yet entered the military region and have to wait until the preparations are complete. Chen Fengchen's assistant will take personnel information to apply for a pass in the army and move in together at that time.
When we arrived at the guesthouse, someone arranged Yang Huan's sign-in and asked her to wait in a conference room first.
There were more than a dozen people in the conference room, all of whom were women. It seemed that they were probably here to audition for the role of Xiuqin, because almost everyone was tied with the marijuana braids, and there were even a few people wearing retro cotton jackets, which were all the characteristics of Xiuqin in the book!
"So many people?" Yang Huan felt a little upset and pulled Ding Xiang and muttered in a low voice.
Chapter completed!
