Today's prawns are very fresh. I took out half of them and made a cold salad. It tastes sweet and sour.
Peel the remaining half, leaving only the shrimps, use eggs and flour, add a little salt to make a batter, coat the shrimps with the batter and deep-fry them in a pan until they are shaped, then stir-fry them with tomato sauce to make tomato shrimp balls.
And the most classic sweet potato with sugar is indispensable.
Plus three refreshing vegetarian dishes, sweet corn pancakes, assorted soft tofu, and canned fruit.
There is also a dish of bean sprouts in clear soup, and the dessert party at noon is complete.
They are all good dishes to go with rice. After the last experience, Xiaoguo steamed a super big pot of rice this time, which was definitely delicious.
The two were busy in the kitchen, and Shao Zhan was not relaxed either.
Jiang Shanhe and Xiaoguo were both busy in the kitchen, and Li Shouji asked them to go somewhere else, so Xiaoyi and Zhuangzhuang were free.
The two naughty kids were now left unattended, and it was true that when the tiger was away the monkeys became king. In the end, Zhuangzhuang, who had strong principles, could not resist Xiaoyi's persuasion and was dragged to Shao Zhan's residence.
There was no other reason why Xiao Yi did this. He just heard that people would have lunch there at noon, so it would be better for him to go there early and wait.
If Shao Zhan, who was deeply moved by himself, knew his thoughts, he would probably not be happy. He thought his eldest son had grown up, but he didn't expect that he had become a completely unfilial son.
Xiao Yi lived with Shao Zhan for the first few days after he arrived on the island, but later he and Zhuangzhuang stayed with Xiao Guo.
They don't see each other all day long. This heartless boy doesn't even come back to see his father, leaving his father alone in the empty room, feeling very lonely.
But he is a grown man and the ruler of a country, so he can't just keep running to Xiaoguo's side.
During this time, Shao Zhan finally realized the benefits of Zhuangzhuang, and in addition to admiration for Jiang Danhe and Xiaoguo, he also felt a little jealous.
I wanted to run up to them and shout, "Your son is mine, and this unfilial son is yours!"
Shao Zhan was not exaggerating, he was just giving an example, whenever there was some new and exotic food, Zhuangzhuang would never forget to bring some for him, and his silly son would follow him, but before he could feel gratified, the other party would pour a bucket of cold water on him.
Many times, the scene was basically like this every time. Zhuangzhuang talked to Shao Zhan like a little adult, and Xiaoyi urged Zhuangzhuang to go back quickly, saying that if he went back late, all the delicious food would be eaten up by Li Shouji.
Shao Zhan felt so sad after hearing this. He was a living person, but he was not as good as a bunch of food. It was really pathetic to think about it.
But then again, the snacks made by Xiaoguo are indeed delicious.
As soon as the food came out of the pot, Xiaoguo and Jiang Shanhe were unable to carry it, so they had to ask the kitchen's messenger to deliver it to Shao Zhan.
As soon as Xiaoguo finished asking for help and left, the kitchen was in an uproar, with everyone vying for the job of delivering the dishes. Who wouldn't want to admire the finished dishes up close?
On the way back, Jiang Shanhe noticed Xiaoguo's uneasiness and could guess what was going on after a little thought.
"The matter you asked Shao Zhan to do was about Zhao Yuyan?"
"What?!" Xiao Guo looked surprised and then asked, "How did you know?"
Jiang Shanhe had a look on his face that said, "As expected." In response to Xiaoguo's question, he only had two words to answer, "Secret."
"What?" Xiao Guo was unhappy. What a stingy guy. He actually learned from her to keep people in suspense. She was really curious. "Tell me, how did you guess it?"
At this moment, Jiang Shanhe had completely grasped Xiaoguo's behavior last night. He took two quick steps and waved his hands behind him, looking as if the secret could not be revealed.
As soon as we returned to Shao Zhan's residence, the food was served as soon as we sat down.
As expected, Shao Zhan ate very happily and his appetite was much bigger than usual. Xiaoyi and Zhuangzhuang saw that he was such a big eater, no slower than Li Shouji, so they also became anxious. The three pairs of chopsticks of the three of them drove at the same time. Xiaoguo and Jiang Shanhe could only see a bunch of flying shadows. They looked at each other and were glad that Li Shouji was not there, otherwise it would be even more lively.
Just when Xiaoguo spotted a piece of meat and was about to pick it up, it was snatched away by another pair of chopsticks. Xiaoguo, who was a beat slower, only picked up a puff of air. He retracted his hand helplessly and ate the dry rice in the bowl.
At this time, Jiang Shanhe, who had been observing her, picked up a piece of meat from her bowl, motioned for her to eat, and picked up the meat for her.
He had anticipated this situation. If Li Shouji was there, his chopsticks would have had a harder time. The table was full of people eager to eat, and they had to fight for the food. If he didn't give her the food, Xiaoguo would have to eat only dry rice for this meal.
The dinner table is not a good place to discuss things, so Xiaoguo waited until the empty plates were removed before bringing it up.
Ever since that day when she saw Zhao Yuyan digging her own grave, the scene was vivid in her mind and she could not forget it. Every time she thought of it, she felt an indescribable depression in her heart.
She knew that she was not the Virgin Mary and did not have the ability to save people from suffering. There were many sad people on this island and she could not help them all.
But she just couldn't ignore it. It would be fine if she didn't know, but if she knew and didn't help, she really couldn't get over the hurdle in her heart.
The reason why Xiaoguo found it difficult to tell Shao Zhan was that he had already been very kind to her by allowing her to leave with Yuling. If she now wanted to take Zhao Yuyan away with her, it would be too much.
"…After all, Zhao Yuyan is also dying, and I really can't bear to let her die here alone."
Jiang Shanhe took Zhuangzhuang and Xiaoyi back first, leaving Xiaoguo and Shao Zhan alone in the room. After she finished speaking, they remained expressionless.
Shao Zhan's eyes were dazed, and he stared at Xiao Guo blankly, as if he was missing someone beyond her.
After a while, just when Xiaoguo was ready to give up and let it rot, Shao Zhan spoke.
"I agree."
Xiao Guo looked at him in surprise, subconsciously wanting to ask if it was true, but she quickly reacted and said, "Thank you! Thank you so much!"
Shao Zhan is the king of a country, and what he says is like a nail in the coffin. If Xiao Guo asks whether it is true or not at this time, it would be too stupid.
Shao Zhan shook his head and said with a smile, "You're welcome."
"Then, I'll go back first."
Shao Zhan nodded. Xiao Guo walked a few steps outside, then suddenly stopped and turned his head. "In a few months, I will make you a special dairy dessert."
After saying this, Xiaoguo, who had finally gotten over her worries, was so excited that she couldn't help but jump for joy as she left.
Shao Zhan was stunned at first, then he laughed heartily. It seemed that he could no longer hide his love for sweets.
The laughter stopped, as if he remembered something, he took out a jade pendant from his arms, held it in his hands as if it were a treasure, and stroked it gently.
The quality of the jade pendant was not very good, which did not match his status at all. There were some cracks on the surface, and there were also some bumps and dents all over the piece.
There is no other decoration on the plain jade, only the word "Mu" is carved on it.
A crisp female voice kept appearing in my mind.
"Want to know my name? That's fine! 'Gu Wu Xin Xiang Mei, Dao Mu Qing Feng Chui', if you want to know my name, just guess it yourself. If you guess it right, I will make friends with you!"
Thinking of that kind and tender face that was frozen in youth, Shao Zhan couldn't help but fall into memories. His bitter laughter was filled with longing, love, and infinite regret...
It's like this even when he's the emperor. The dead will never come back.
Just now, he seemed to see her shadow in Xiaoguo's face. Both women were so kind, even the compassion that flashed in their eyes was exactly the same.
He thought that if she were still alive, she would probably make the same request as Xiaoguo, which was why he suddenly agreed without thinking.
