Chapter 138 Leeks are a good thing

Chen Quegu and Shen Hengwei were tired of crawling on their uncle Zhuo Yang's legs, so they were taken back to the bed by their mother, and continued the most important thing at their age - sleeping.

Zhuo Yang got out of the way and went into the sofa in the large living room, watching Koko and Yezi make dumplings.

The right-handed spoon put the lifted stuffing into the dumpling skin on the left hand. Koko put the other four fingers on the spoon, then took the empty right thumb and cooperated with the left hand, gently squeezed the two thumbs into the middle, and a round dumpling was wrapped.

The dumplings in Shaanxi, especially Xi'an, are different from other parts of northern China in terms of appearance. The dumplings in Xi'an are relatively round, slightly smaller, and look very compact.

Such dumplings can be eaten in a plate with vinegar plate according to tradition, or they can be put into a bowl and poured with sour soup. They are called sour soup dumplings, which are local specialties in Xi'an.

So when eating dumplings in Xi'an, the boss will ask you: Eat dry?

Those who don’t understand will wonder: Is there still wet?

‘Dried’ or ‘Soup’, this is the correct explanation.

Zhuo Yang wouldn't feel any strange when Koko eats dumplings. She started eating them when she was in Milan, but they were all European dumplings, and the things they made in them were all strange. They should not be called "Filling", but meatballs.

But Koko made dumplings and his movements were so skillful, it was really interesting.

After lying in bed for 14 months and then waking up, Zhuo Yang felt that the world had changed a lot.

Before he lay down, there were already online shopping and mobile payments, but it was just a supplement to life's highlights and was not mainstream at all. But when he woke up in a dream, he looked at the dazzling array of shopping websites on his mobile phone, random codes to pay, and various red envelopes grabbing, and really felt amazing.

But these are not as standard Chinese as Koko's mouth, which surprised him. Today she was actually performing making dumplings again.

And it is made of dumplings made of leeks and beef.

Someone once studied what dish best represents China? Many people recommend scrambled eggs with tomatoes.

The land is different from the north and the people are different from the young. Scrambled eggs with tomatoes are made by every family and eaten by everyone. It is the most common and popular dish.

But this statement is questionable, and the problem lies in tomatoes. The sweetness and moisture of tomatoes are actually not suitable as a Chinese dish. Scrambled eggs with tomatoes are more of the fragrance of eggs.

Eggs can be paired with many vegetables, while tomatoes can almost only be fried with eggs, otherwise they can only be used as auxiliary ingredients. Compared with other commonly used vegetables in Chinese food, the properties of tomatoes are more like fruits.

Moreover, tomatoes are native to South America and are not native to China. They are called "tomatoes" because they come from foreign countries.

Some people also believe that cabbage can best represent China. Indeed, cabbage was called "Song" in ancient times and has a history of cultivation and consumption in China for 3,000 years. Moreover, cabbage recipes are very wide and the methods are ever-changing. It is still one of the main vegetables in East Asia, China, Japan and South Korea.

Especially in winter, cabbage was almost the savior on the dining table in northern China. Many generations of people's memories of winter have the fragrance of cabbage.

However, the taste of Chinese cabbage is really dull, and it is not only Chinese people who eat it.

In fact, leeks are the most Chinese label. They are native to China's specialty vegetables, and their history is even longer than cabbage.

Except for the Chinese, no one else eats leeks. Europeans cannot accept the usurpation of leeks, and at most they only use it as a decoration for potted plants.

There is even no word corresponding to "leek" in English. Only the British call it "chinese     chives", which is literally translated as "Chinese onions".

So there is no more Chinese food than leek dumplings.

Now the blonde and blue-eyed Koko is making leek dumplings very skillfully. This picture should have been very inconsistent, but at this time it was extremely integrated in Zhuo Yang's eyes.

Just like her 'Brother Zhuo Yang' with a straight Chinese pronunciation.

When my sister Zhuo Qiutian got married in early 2014, she wore a wedding dress in the Han palace. Koko was so envious. She told Zhuo Yang that she should wear it like her sister when she got married.

At that time, Zhuo Yang was still complaining about the foreign girls in Hanfu, who might not be inconsistent, but now looking at Koko, who made leek dumplings, he would never think so much.

Li Xiaoqing and Sun Yumei, who were really bystanders, had long seen that Koko was the only girl who could accompany Zhuo Yang's life and death. Zhuo Yang also knew that he had known it in his previous life, but the occasional loss of life in this life made him temporarily forget this.

Zhuo Yang, who wakes up from rebirth, will no longer let Koko use his life to accompany him to death. A pack of leek dumplings is the most beautiful life.

.

He moved his eyes from Koko's slender hands and looked at her side, staring blankly.

Ye Wuji used his body as a cauldron to refine the essence of the universe and the world. Not only did he repair Zhuo Yang's broken body, but he also benefited not only. Koko, who was haggard and withered a year ago, not only restored his stunning appearance, but also had a fair and tender skin that was already brighter.

When he met Zhuo Yang in Florence eight years ago, Koko was nineteen years old. Eight years later, Koko looked only sixteen years old at the foot of Mount Zhongnan, Koko looked like a saint on Mount Buzhou.

Koko's left hand and right hand is flew constantly, making faces for him from time to time, or throwing a charming look of the spring breeze. Zhuo Yang leaned against the sofa and smiled, his heart had melted.

In such a deep affection, Ye Zi, who was sitting opposite Koko, felt a little embarrassed and showed a light bulb. But she couldn't bear to avoid it because such happiness was full of infectiousness. She was envious and was happy for her old classmates.

"Yezi, I'm really lucky." Zhuo Yang said: "You can have an old classmate like you."

Zhuo Yang knew that his sister had to take care of her two nephews and was very busy. Koko's Chinese and making dumplings were mainly learned from Ye Zi.

Ye Zi replied with a smile: "Then you can eat more dumplings later and finish all the money you have made of Koko."

"Leeks are a good thing, and they always leave a deep impression on people." Zhuo Yang recalled: "I still remember that in the first year of high school, we went to Louguantai for a spring outing. Before getting on the bus from school in the morning, I ate two leek boxes."

"It smelled too usurped after getting on the bus, and no one wanted to sit with me. Old Musse gave me half a can of beer, and after drinking it, he burped twice, and the car was full of leek smell, which made the driver in front yell."

‘Puchi~’ Koko and Ye Zi both laughed out loud, and Ye Zi said hurriedly: “I remember, I remember..."

"Leeks are a good thing. It seems that Li Bai has written poems to praise it, but unfortunately I didn't remember it. But Du Fu's 'two orioles sing in the green willows, and a line of egrets climbed into the blue sky' was when he was eating fried eggs with leeks and sang in the bowl."

Koko and Ye Zi smiled so much that the spoon could hardly hold it.
