"I really don't understand. You can figure it out. To be honest, this is my first time eating French food. I don't know what's so delicious about it." If you understand, you understand. If you don't understand, you don't understand. Jiang Hai The greatest advantage of a man is his self-confidence. He can't pretend not to understand in front of a woman, so after looking around, he smacked his teeth.
He handed the menu back again and said helplessly.
After hearing Jiang Hai's words, Sandy Clive here was stunned for a moment, because in her opinion, a rich man like Jiang Hai should usually pursue the quality of life. That's why I brought Jiang Hai to eat French food, but unexpectedly, Jiang Hai hadn't eaten it, which made Sandy dumbfounded.
"Okay, I hope you'll find it delicious if you order it later. Give us two set meals." After taking a look at the menu, Sandy Clive here studied it and said.
"Is it set A, set B or set C?" After hearing what Sandy said, the waiter here asked.
"Set B." After looking at the menu, Sandy Clive thought for a moment and said.
The so-called set A, set B and set C are also very particular here. Set A is commonly known as the traditional set meal, with a total of thirteen dishes, the first is a frozen appetizer, the second is soup, and the third is a hot appetizer. , the fourth fish course, the fifth main course, the sixth hot dish, the seventh cold dish, the eighth sorbet, the ninth barbecue or salad, the tenth vegetable course, the eleventh dessert course, The twelfth course of savory snacks and the thirteenth course of desserts. Generally speaking, these are very formal banquets with so much talk.
Obviously Jiang Hai didn't have the patience to wait for him to serve thirteen dishes. It was because of this that Xiandi ordered Set B. Set B consisted of five dishes, frozen appetizer, soup, hot appetizer, and main course. , desserts, in addition to the C set meal, which is an appetizer, you can choose whether it is frozen or hot, a main course, and a dessert.
For the frozen appetizer, Sandy-Clive chose the tuna salad. Of course, one person probably couldn't give a few slices of tuna, so the soup was cream of mushroom soup. After all, this is the most famous French dish. It's a hot appetizer. She chose French stewed potatoes, and the final dessert was strawberry crepe, but she hesitated when it came to the main meal.
"Do you have any recommendations today?" Everything else was done, and Sandy was not in a hurry. After hesitating for a long time without making a decision, she raised her head and asked the waiter in front of her.
"Today's recommendation is red wine beef stew. We just received the new Burgundy red wine from France this morning. You two can try it." After hearing the waiter's words, Sandy Clive nodded with satisfaction. .
"That's it, it's ready to be served." As she confirmed that she wanted this, the waiter over there also bowed respectfully, and then went down to tell the kitchen to take away the food. After he left, Jiang Hai looked at Sandy Clive.
"It seems like you come here often." After looking around, Jiang Hai said to Sandy Clive.
"Well, I come to this place often, because a long time ago, my father worked here as a chef, and I often came here to play when I was young. But since my father stopped working here, I probably still I've been here four or five times." Hearing Jiang Hai's words, Sandy Clive smiled and said. Hearing her words, Jiang Hai couldn't help but nodded. The French chef seemed to be very powerful. .
"What about you? Have you, a rich man like you, never eaten French food? You shouldn't!" After answering Jiang Hai's question, Sandy Clive asked Jiang Hai. When he heard her words, Jiang Hai's face changed. Somewhat ashamed.
"Haha, I, don't laugh when you say it. I also came from a poor background. Then by chance, I got money, so I came to the United States and bought the Green Forest Manor. I still have some in my bones. I have the mentality of a small farmer, so you see that I hardly interact with people in the town in normal times, and just stay at home. To be honest, you may not believe it. Now, in addition to knowing the mayor and police chief, I also have super people in the town. Apart from the appearance of a few salesmen in the market, I only know my subordinates. I know almost no one in the town. I usually come to the town to eat, and often go to the Italian restaurant on the west side of the town. Their fried crab meat is quite delicious." Looking at Sandy Clive, Jiang Hai said slowly.
"Wow, you are really different from the rich people I know." After hearing Jiang Hai's words, Sandy Clive said with some surprise. She originally thought that Jiang Hai had no contact with the town. It's because he looks down on the residents of the town. He may have his own circle of friends, but now it seems that the shy big boy in front of him seems to be an otaku.
"I didn't expect that you actually like to eat the food from that Italian restaurant. I also like it very much. Have you tried the lobster pasta from that restaurant?" Now that the chatter has started, Sandy Clive also chatted with Jiang. Hai spoke casually.
"I've tried it, and it tastes pretty good. The milky aroma is strong, but for me, it's a bit fishy. Other than that, everything else is fine." After hearing what Sandy Clive said, Jiang Hai immediately said.
"There is no lobster that doesn't smell fishy. And I heard that there is a fishery in the Green Forest. You, a fisherman, don't like fishy fish?" After giving Jiang Hai a funny look, Sandy Clive said half-jokingly.
"Well, eat it, so I said it's a little fishy, not particularly fishy." Jiang Hai blinked and said innocently.
"Okay, are you playing a language trap with a teacher? Do you think this is really good?" Looking at Jiang Hai, Sandy couldn't help but laugh.
Looking at Sandy's appearance, Jiang Hai also chuckled, and then continued.
To be honest, this should be the first time Jiang Hai has said so many words to a girl in the past two years.
Although Jiang Hai is a bit shy and introverted, he is a very cheerful person. However, since the death of his parents, he has felt somewhat inferior when interacting with strangers.
Therefore, his cheerful side will only face people he is familiar with, not strangers.
He and Sandy should be strangers, but there is no way. He has not chatted with people of his own age for a long time. There are only two people of his own age in the manor. It is impossible for Harriman to talk to him. He chatted, and although Bell would sometimes chat with him for a while, most of the time, he also had to work.
The only people who could chat with him, and who could chat with him in his free time, were Philemon's two sons, but they just came over to celebrate the holidays, and after Christmas and New Year, they left. Let's go, Jiang Hai has nothing to do.
After holding it in for several days, hearing Sandy today aroused his addiction to talking, and he began to talk endlessly.
As for Sandy, she also liked to listen to what Jiang Hai said, because what Jiang Hai said seemed very interesting and simple to her. She did not have the arrogance of those rich young men who brag in their mouths all day long. Although he had Money, but what he said is very close to life.
This made Xiandi very fond of Jiang Hai. In addition, Jiang Hai helped their school solve the money problem. Coupled with the preconceived gratitude and this good impression, further development may have to be discussed later, but at least Now she is very willing to chat with Jiang Hai. Teachers are actually very talkative, so the more they chat, the happier they are.
Even after the food was served, the two of them were eating and talking at the same time. In fact, this is a bit impolite in Western countries, just like the requirements of the elderly in China, they eat without talking and sleep without talking, but both of them were They are peers, and no one cares about this.
Still talking passionately, as the conversation between the two deepened, Sandy Clive discovered that Jiang Hai was really an interesting man...
Perhaps because he had never worked outside after leaving school, Jiang Hai sometimes seemed a little naive.
He doesn't speak or act like an adult, but more like a big boy.
Listening to his complaints, listening to his jokes, and listening to him showing off the fish and beef in his manor, Sandy Clive suddenly felt that this guy seemed really interesting. He was not like what she imagined. Some of them are so pretentious, or out of line, but a little out of touch. Whether such a person is suitable to be a boyfriend is another matter, but it would be good to be a friend.
"The beef here is good, but the beef itself is far from what I have. When you have time, you can come to my place. If nothing else, the premium A-grade beef is enough." Jiang Haike at this time Didn't notice any changes in Sandy Clive.
He just stabbed the beef stew in Burgundy red wine in front of him with his fork and said with a smile to her.
"Okay, then I have to try it. I haven't tasted the taste of premium grade A beef in a while. Let me tell you, the last time I ate premium grade A beef, my dad still came from here. As for the chef, I sneaked into the back kitchen to eat it, and it has been many years now. I only ate a small piece at that time, but I became obsessed with this thing, but as you said, it doesn’t matter, then I'll go eat it tomorrow." Seeing Jiang Hai keep talking about the beef in his manor, Sandy Clive also said with a smile.
"Okay, no problem, you are always welcome, but my manor is completely white now, there is nothing to do, and it will be freezing to death when taking a boat out to sea. If it gets civilized after a while, and the cattle are released, you can also go out to sea. , that would be a lot of fun." Jiang Hai is not bragging, he really takes care of the premium grade beef in his manor. In his opinion, Sandy Clive is now his friend. Come and have some beef, what's the big deal? The only pity is that there's nothing to do now.
"It doesn't matter, we can eat it in the evening... By the way, I heard you said that you haven't had a good tour of Boston yet. So, in order to thank you for treating me to beef tomorrow night, I will be your guide during the day tomorrow. Take you to visit Boston!"
