Gu Nan was pulled by Fu Xin to the small garden on the first floor.
Next to a colorful flowerbed, there is a small wooden pavilion.
"Fifth Aunt, let's do this here."
Fu Xin took Gu Nanyi's hand and pointed to the chair in the pavilion.
Gu Nan followed her into the pavilion and sat down.
"Fifth Aunt, are you really still in high school?" Fu Xi looked at her curiously.
"If possible, you should call me Nanyi."
"This... Uncle Wu will be unhappy."
Uncle Wu wished that she would talk about Aunt Wu every day. It would be best if everyone in the imperial capital knew that he had a girlfriend.
Gu Nan smiled helplessly: "Then don't tell him."
Fu Xin understood immediately.
"Okay, I'll call you Nan Yi in private, and I'll call you Fifth Aunt in front of Fifth Uncle. To be honest, you're younger than me, so I always think it's weird to call you Fifth Aunt. Hey, who said
My fifth uncle is old, so I can only wrong you."
How old is Fu Yunchen?
Gu Nan was puzzled.
He is only twenty-five years old and has not yet celebrated his twenty-sixth birthday. He is in the prime of life, so why is he called old?
The two people quickly started talking, mainly Fu Xin said, while Gu Nan sat aside and listened quietly.
"Nan Yi, how did my fifth uncle catch you? I think his character is too dull and boring. He shouldn't be able to make girls happy, right?"
"With his face, he shouldn't need to coax girls, right?" Gu Nan asked rhetorically.
Fu Xin was suddenly startled and blinked Kazilan's big eyes.
"That's right. Nan Yi, you didn't agree to be his girlfriend because my fifth uncle is handsome, right? Although my fifth uncle is indeed very talented, he is also very talented."
From the time she could remember, it seemed that Uncle Wu had never taken special care of any girl. Those girls were all chasing him one after another, but Uncle Wu was really special to Nan Yi.
If Nan Yi agreed to be his girlfriend because he thought Uncle Wu was handsome, would Nan Yi dump Uncle Wu if he met another handsome guy one day?
After all, she is only eighteen years old, and it is normal for her to have an unstable temperament.
But Uncle Wu is different. After being single for so long, he finally saw the light of being single, but he must not make any mistakes.
Gu Nan frowned slightly, she knew the deep meaning of Fu Xi's words.
“Why do we need to do multiple-choice questions?”
"Ah?" Fu Xin looked at the girl in front of him confused.
"Can't I admire his talent as well as his looks?"
Fu Xin: Well, is this the popular saying on the Internet recently: "Only fools take multiple-choice questions"?
Then isn't she a fool?
hehe……
There was a burst of low laughter not far away, and the two of them looked at the place where the laughter came from.
Fu Yunchen walked straight over this way.
"Let's go and eat."
Fu Xin immediately stood up from the chair: "Where to eat?"
"Didn't you have dinner?" Fu Yunchen reminded him "kindly".
"I've already eaten, but I can still eat some more. Just treat it as a midnight snack."
Fu Yunchen glanced at Fu Xin with his cold eyes, and Fu Xin clearly felt the killing look from his fifth uncle.
The little girl immediately realized that she, the light bulb, seemed to be unpopular.
Gu Nan had a very good impression of Fu Xin.
"go together."
"Um...I suddenly remembered that I have to lose weight recently, so I'd better not eat late night snacks. Fifth uncle, take care of fifth aunt, and we'll see you tomorrow."
After waving his hand, Fu Xin ran away knowingly.
After Gu Nan saw Fu Xin leaving, she turned to look at the man beside her.
"I finally understand why the Fu family is afraid of you."
"Was I very fierce just now?" Fu Yunchen asked.
Gu Nan smiled and nodded: "A bit fierce."
Fu Yunchen pursed his lips and smiled, reaching out to hold her hand: "Be careful next time."
The two people left the scientific research institute and got into the car. Gu Nan fastened his seat belt.
“Where to eat?”
"I originally wanted to cook by myself, but now it's too late, so let's eat something at a nearby restaurant."
Gu Nan had no objection to what to eat, and Fu Yunchen was a tasteful person, so the restaurant he chose would definitely be good.
As the car drove to the gate, Gu Nan looked towards the sentry in the foyer.
The sentry saw the car approaching and immediately opened the electronic gate to let it pass.
When Fu Yunchen drove the car to the guard box, he pressed down the window and introduced to the sentry at the door: "Introduce me to my girlfriend."
The sentry was stunned at first, as if he didn't expect Fu Yunchen to introduce his girlfriend to him. But when he saw the girl sitting in the passenger seat, he understood something instantly.
His cheeks suddenly felt hot, and he smiled awkwardly.
"Congratulations to Academician Fu on his successful divorce."
"Thank you." Fu Yunchen thanked him politely and drove away.
The sentry silently wiped his hands with cold sweat.
What unlucky me, the little girl I intercepted today turned out to be Academician Fu's girlfriend.
Academician Fu personally introduced his girlfriend to him, and obviously reminded him angrily not to stop his girlfriend in the future.
*
After driving for ten minutes, the car stopped outside a restaurant.
This restaurant called "Sui Cuisine Restaurant" is located in a busy area of the Imperial Capital, not far from the restaurant is a Guomao shopping mall.
Even in the imperial capital, the Ye family's properties can still be seen everywhere.
Fu Yunchen parked the car in the open-air parking lot and unbuckled his seat belt.
"Many old academicians of the Chinese Academy of Sciences like to come to this restaurant to eat. I have been there several times with them. Their Sui cuisine is very authentic.
Sui cuisine is a cuisine from the north and is very famous in the north.
As soon as Gu Nan followed Fu Yunchen out of the car, and as soon as they walked into the restaurant, the waiter at the front desk immediately greeted them.
"Mr. Fu." The waiter greeted him respectfully.
Fu Yunchen took out a black card from his wallet and handed it to him.
"Book me a quiet seat."
"OK, just a second."
The waiter quickly arranged the table, took the table cards, and personally led them over.
It is peak period in the restaurant now, and the first floor is basically full.
They followed the waiter to the second floor. The decoration layout on the second floor was obviously several levels higher than that on the first floor.
Each dining table is divided by a translucent antique screen, similar to the type of small private room, but more transparent than the small private room.
Arriving at the table in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows, the waiter put the meal number on the table.
"Both of you, please take a seat."
After Fu Yunchen and Gu Nan sat down, the waiter placed the order form he carried with him in front of Gu Nanyi.
"Miss, please take a look."
As soon as Gu Nan took the order form and looked through it, he casually ordered two signature dishes.
"Do you have Fengling crystal dumplings at your house?"
The waiter's expression was slightly startled, and Fu Yunchen also looked towards her silently.
When Gu Nan turned to the last page, she didn't see the dish she wanted to eat.
"Since you make a living by selling the Sui cuisine, Fengling crystal dumplings are the Sui cuisine's signature, so you should be able to make them."
After the waiter reacted, he turned the menu to the second page.
"Miss, these are our family's dumplings. I wonder which Fengling Crystal Dumplings you are talking about? Maybe the names are different."
Gu Nan shook his head: "The skin and meat of Fengling's crystal dumplings are made from Fengling River fish, so they are named after Fengling City. This crystal dumpling emerged from the royal family of the Sui Dynasty and gradually spread to the people.
Because the production process is complicated and the price is high, it has become a famous dish sought after by the rich. This famous dish was mentioned in "Sui Yang Fu"."
The waiter was completely stunned on the spot.
He has worked in this restaurant for seven years, and this is the first time he has heard a customer order this dish.
Not to mention that the local guests didn't know about it, even he had never heard of it.
After seeing the waiter's expression, Gu Nan's eyes flashed with disappointment.
After all, more than five hundred years later, many famous dishes that were popular in the imperial capital at that time may have disappeared in the long river of history with the change of dynasties.
"Haha, at such a young age, you can actually know the name of Fengling Crystal Dumplings. It's rare, it's rare!"
A deep, old voice came from the next table.
After Fu Yunchen heard the other party's voice, he immediately stood up from his position.
Seeing Fu Yunchen's movements, Gu Nanyi followed closely and stood up.
"Teacher Rong."
Gu Nan looked at the old man sitting at the table. He was wearing a military green shabby Chinese tunic suit. There were obvious traces of sewing on the sleeves and elbows. On his head, the old man wore a military cap worn by the older generation of revolutionary fighters.
The whole person is simple to the point of being alien.
This evaluation is not an exaggeration. The old man is dressed like someone who has traveled back in time from the 1940s and 1950s. Walking in this fashionable international metropolis, people will indeed treat him as an alien.
The old man held a big pipe in his hand. Since smoking was prohibited in the restaurant, there was no cigarette wick in the pipe. He just held it between his hands and played with it. There was a green military cloth bag on the empty chair next to him.
There are also obvious signs of sewing on the corners of the bag.
Although I think the old man's outfit is very strange, I can feel that he is in good spirits.
When Gu Nan looked at the old man, the old man's wrinkled eyes also glanced at her, and then his eyes moved to Fu Yunchen.
"This girl doll is your girlfriend?"
Fu Yunchen nodded with a smile in his eyes.
"Nan Yi, let me introduce to you. This is Academician Rong, an expert in calculus."
Gu Nan looked at the old man calmly.
"Academician Rong."
"Looking at how young you are, how did you get deceived by Fu Yunchen?"
Gu Nanyi: This is quite straightforward.
"Do you think he lied to me?"
Academician Rong exposed his shortcomings unceremoniously: "Don't underestimate this kid, he is as cunning as a fox."
Gu Nan's eyes were clear, and the old man could see clearly.
When other people mention Fu Yunchen, most of their comments are: cold and aloof, distant and indifferent, not easy to get close to, etc.
Only Academician Rong hit the nail on the head and poked at Fu Yunchen's true face.
Fu Yunchen did not feel embarrassed. Instead, he smiled and said, "To hear this comment from your mouth, I take it as a compliment."
The old man snorted: "Look, he can turn black into white."
The old man paused for a moment and returned to the topic.
"Little girl, where did you hear about Fengling Crystal Dumplings? Not even them, even people my age, I'm afraid not many people have heard of this dish."
"So the Fengling Crystal Dumpling has been broken?"
Rong Lao sighed softly.
"This started in the Song Dynasty. More than five hundred years ago, many famous Confucians were proud of eating Fengling Crystal Dumplings, which caused a chain effect. Many wealthy businessmen and gentlemen also began to compete to eat this dish.
This led to the tragic extinction of Fenglingjiang fish, and since then, this dish has gradually disappeared due to changes."
Gu Nan's heart sank slightly. He didn't expect that the famous northern dish that was very popular at that time would become extinct because the Fengling River fish, the main ingredient of dumpling wrappers, was eaten?
"I read a few poems from the Song Dynasty, and one of them mentioned this famous dish. I happened to be at a Sui cuisine restaurant today, so I asked casually."
Rong Lao glanced at Gu Nan silently and said nothing more.
At this time, the waiter next to him asked if he could switch to other dishes, and Fu Yunchen asked Gu Nanyi's opinion.
"Order another one of your signature dumplings."
"The signature dumplings in our store are meat dumplings in soup sauce."
Gu Nan asked Fu Yunchen: "What do you want to eat?"
"I like all the dishes you ordered."
"Then let's have these three dishes."
The two of them sat back down, and Mr. Rong next door listened to the opera without saying another word.
after meal
As Fu Yunchen and Gu Nan prepared to leave together, the old man next door slowly stood up.
"Academician Rong, let me take you back."
"No, I want to take a walk." The old man picked up his schoolbag and held a palm-sized radio in his hand.
Without waiting for Fu Yunchen to speak, he turned around and walked downstairs first.
As soon as Gu Nan saw the back of this strange old man, he gave the impression that he suddenly stopped in a certain era. As a result, his living environment has remained the same for decades, gradually drifting away from the real society.
"Academician Rong is my first teacher in missile research and development."
"He looks different."
Fu Yunchen said: "He has a very withdrawn personality and is not good at communicating with others. He has never married or had children in his life. He devotes a lot of time and energy to calculus calculations every day. But Mr. Rong is a genius. It is because of his research
With calculus as the cornerstone, our country has made rapid progress in the research and development of aerospace and heavy equipment in recent years."
Calculus is the basis of scientific research, and many high-tech research and development are inseparable from the threshold of calculus.
Fu family
Fu Xin ran home happily.
When she saw many people sitting in the living room at home, Fu Xin blinked with big eyes and looked a little surprised.
"What day is today? Why are you here?"
Mr. Fu, Mrs. Fu, his eldest son Fu Yin, his daughter-in-law Fang Jinzhu, his second son Fu Hao, his seven-year-old only son Fu Shu and his youngest daughter Fu Xi were all present.
Everyone's eyes turned to Fu Xin.
Fang Jinzhu asked: "Xinxin, why didn't your fifth uncle come home?"
"Uncle Wu has an appointment tonight, so he probably won't be back."
Although I don’t know how developed Uncle Wu and Nan Yi are, they are living alone together. Nan Yi came to the imperial capital alone and was unfamiliar with the place. Uncle Wu would definitely not let her be outside alone.
While talking, Fu Xin walked to the dining table, picked up a bunch of grapes from the dining table, picked off one and threw it into her mouth. The sweet and sour juice filled her mouth.
Fu Yin glared at her: "Your fifth uncle's date is probably the girl from Pingcheng."
"Yes." Fu Xin nodded.
Fang Jinzhu asked curiously: "How is that girl?"
Fu Xin thought carefully for a while: "She is really beautiful. This is the first time I have seen such a beautiful girl. She is even taller than a celebrity. She also has a good personality. She doesn't talk much and feels cold and cold.
But when I talk, I feel very comfortable.”
Fu Yin cursed: "I didn't expect that Xiao Wu is also a member of the Appearance Association."
