Chapter 264: An accident at the dinner table

Views:

"We're back." After pushing open the door of Jiang Hai's villa, Selena Gomez's voice entered the room.

After hearing her voice, Jiang Hai also walked out of the kitchen while cracking eggs.

What caught his eyes were the four people. Just as Jiang Hai thought, Aphra and others had already left.

In fact, although Aphra and the others were having fun with these women today, these women were actually very wary.

This can be seen from the fact that they did not make any sound in front of these people.

So if these people invite them to come back for dinner, they will definitely not come back.

It is precisely because of this that there are only four people coming back tonight, Pula Walton, Selena Gomez, Qi Li and Qi Li’s assistant. Well, Jiang Hai doesn’t think about it now. What was her name when she got up

"Go to the room, take a shower and then come down. Dinner is almost ready." Looking at the people in front of him, it was clear that they were not in good condition. Pula Walton and Selena Gomez still had stains on their bodies. There was some fine sand on their face and body, as well as the salt stains left by the sea water dried by the sun. As for Qi Li and her assistant, although their bodies were much neater.

But on the beach, it was still a sunny day. Although there were sun umbrellas, they were still hot and sweaty wearing the women's suits. It was obvious that their current condition was not very good. As for Jiang Hai, this time These women didn't say no.

Selena and Pula Walton went upstairs at that time, but Qili and her assistant hesitated.

"Oh, I haven't asked yet, do you want to live here too?" Looking at the two people, Jiang Hai slapped his forehead, as if he hadn't arranged a place for them yet.

"Of course, can't you?" After hearing Jiang Hai's words, Qi Li raised her head and said seriously.

Seeing that she was clearly in a bad state, but still pretending to be so arrogant, Jiang Hai couldn't help but smile. Sometimes this woman was really... made him miss her: "Okay, I'll take you upstairs."

After handing the egg liquid in his hand to Darlene next to him, Jiang Hai led the two of them upstairs.

Maybe he felt that the relationship between these two people and Pula Walton and the others was not very good, so Jiang Hai also followed the principle of doing more things than doing less, and arranged their rooms... for Pula Walton and the others. opposite.

For Jiang Hai, watching the excitement is the happiest thing!

"This is your room. Go take a shower, change your clothes, and then come down to eat. I guess you are hungry too." Carrying the luggage of the two of them, they came to the front of the guest room. Jiang Hai put the luggage at the door. Then he turned to leave.

"Jiang Hai, I think we should talk, have a good talk. I don't know when you will have time." But just as Jiang Hai left, Qi Li had already stretched out her hand and grabbed Jiang Hai's wrist. He looked at Jiang Hai seriously and said.

"Oh, since you are here, I think we will have time to talk after all." After hearing Qi Li's words, Jiang Hai did not look back, but just said something plainly. After hearing Jiang Hai's words, Qi Li's eyes were a little He hesitated, but still let go of Jiang Hai's hand.

The moment she let go, Jiang Hai continued to walk forward, and soon disappeared at the top of the stairs around the corner.

"Mr. Qi, what do you think of his attitude? He left us hanging on the beach for half a day and didn't even give us a chance to meet each other this time?" Seeing Jiang Hai's look, Qi Li's assistant also puffed up her face and said: He said with an unhappy face.

To be honest, after she came here, she did have some changes in Jiang Hai. This Jiang Hai seemed to be a bit interesting.

Although she didn't know where he got the money to build this villa, at least as Qi Li's assistant, she knew very well that Jiang Hai did not use the name of Qi Li or the Qi family to get this villa. , and now it seems that there is some cooperation with Wal-Mart, the world's number one retailer. This is really something she did not expect.

She used to feel that Jiang Hai was a piece of mud that couldn't hold up the wall, but when the mud started to shine, she was a little confused again.

But that didn't mean that she could bear it. Jiang Hai was pulling her so hard, and they were all here, yet she still held it like this.

"This guy..." Hearing her words, Qi Li also squinted her eyes, but there was no angry expression on her face. Instead, she directly picked up her luggage and came to the room.

Seeing that Qi Li didn't speak, the assistant here could only helplessly open his mouth, and finally entered the next room helplessly.

As for Jiang Hai at this time, I don’t know if he was careless or something else. After he went downstairs and entered the kitchen, he had forgotten about this matter. Facts have proved that Jiang Hai is indeed not the kind of sentimental person. , or someone who likes to think about it very much.

About ten minutes later, the four women came downstairs, and Jiang Hai had already prepared dinner.

Jiang Hai's dinner had a total of eight dishes. This is also the habit of the Chinese people. Six, eight, and ten are all very auspicious numbers.

Six means good fortune, eight means good fortune, and ten means ten thousand and ten beauties.

Of course, the red moon in December is also good, the smooth sailing on the sixteenth is also good, and the smooth sailing on the eighteenth is also good, but Jiang Hai can't get it.

So he only had eight dishes in total. The most eye-catching ones were two plates of lobster and one plate of steamed lobster. The meter-long lobster lay on top of the plate, which was really intimidating.

There is also a plate of lobster, which is baked lobster with cheese. This is made by Mrs. Philemon. In fact, it is a dish she just learned after coming here. After all, with their cowboy income, even if they bought lobster, they would still be small. Lobster, that kind of lobster can be eaten as a snack. Making it with cheese is still too troublesome. I learned this after arriving at Jiang Hai.

There are six dishes around the two plates of lobster, one is steamed abalone, one is roasted sea cucumber with green onion, which is made by Jiang Hai, and one is fried grouper strips, which is to remove the fish meat from the grouper and put it on the iron plate. Fry it on top, but cod strips are usually fried like this. Jiang Hai doesn’t have many opportunities to fry grouper. Originally, this kind of fish tastes best when steamed.

But considering that Pula Walton and Selena Gomez are not used to steamed dishes, it’s not bad to do this.

In addition to these three dishes, there are three other dishes on the other side. Of course, the most important main course, steak, Jiang Hai divided into two portions. One portion is the fried steak, which can be eaten directly with a fork. There is also a steak like that in a Western restaurant, one for each person. These are specially selected beef, but if you eat the whole piece with a fork, it is the worse among the specially selected beef.

And the good ones are all like that. In addition to two steaks, there is also a large bowl of vegetable and fruit salad.

This is today's dish, with a big bowl of cheddar soup on the side, which is a must-have, and the staple food is white bread.

After all these things were arranged, Mrs. Philemon left first, and the only ones left here to eat were Jiang Hai and the other seven.

The seven people also sat down at Jiang Hai's signal, but they were also particular about how they sat. Jiang Hai naturally wanted to sit in the main seat, and the two seats next to him were Darlene and Marianne. Yes, after all, these two people can be considered the owners of this place.

But sitting next to Darlene were Pula Walton and Selena Gomez, and sitting next to Marianne were Qi Li and her assistant. However, since her assistant came downstairs After that, the original feeling of dissatisfaction disappeared.

At this time, all she could see were those two big lobsters, that big plate of double-headed abalone, that big plate of sea cucumbers, and countless steaks. Suddenly she felt that Jiang Hai was pretty good, at least she followed him Don't worry about not being able to eat delicious food.

"Since everyone is here, let's sit down and start eating." Seeing everyone sit down, Jiang Hai sat at the main seat and smiled at everyone. He was not a Westerner or an old scholar from China. He There is nothing to be particular about. Whether others invite him to dinner or he invites others to dinner, freedom and comfort are the most important things.

All pomp and circumstance and elegance are not acceptable to him. He does not want to have a meal and have others take care of him.

"Jiang Hai, why don't you introduce him first?" Seeing Jiang Hai pick up the fork and cook the steak after saying this, Qi Li couldn't help coughing slightly, then raised her head, looked at Jiang Hai and said.

"What else are you introducing? Didn't you just introduce them? Pula Walton, Selena Gomez." Hearing Qi Li's words, Jiang Hai asked with some confusion, but Qi Li gave him a He rolled his eyes and gestured to his side with his eyes.

Only then did Jiang Hai remember that Qi Li was asking him to introduce Darlene and Marianne around him.

"This is Darlene Evelyn, my adopted daughter. This is her twin sister Marian Evelyn. This is Pula Walton. You met this morning. This is The God of Wealth who came here once to give money to your dad and me, this is Selena Gomez, haven’t you heard her songs! As for these two, this is Qi Li, this is your dad and me 's..." Since Qi Li said she wanted to introduce, Jiang Hai didn't say much and started introducing them directly at the dinner table. It was fine when he introduced Pula and the others first, but when he introduced Qi Li, Jiang Hai Hai hesitated because he didn't know what to introduce.

It seems that just now on the beach, I just called them my friends, so now I still call them my friends.

But before Jiang Hai could finish speaking, Qi Li interrupted Jiang Hai: "I am your mother and his wife. My name is Qi Li. Maybe you have heard him talk about me. Maybe No, but that doesn't matter. This is a gift I brought to you from China. I hope you will like it.

Listening to the standard English pronunciation coming from Qi Li's mouth, Jiang Hai was stunned, Walton and Selena Gomez were stunned, and even Darlene and Marianne were stunned, including The assistant next to Qi Li had countless eyes looking at her at this time.
