After drinking this drink, the banquet officially started.

The delicious dishes came one after another, and Jiang Shuyi didn't recognize any of them. She even didn't know whether to use a spoon or chopsticks for some of them.

Fortunately, I had Zhou Zhi on my side to help me, so I didn’t feel awkward looking at the dishes.

However, Zhou Zhi’s quick and expert instructions and shrimp peeling movements attracted the attention of several people at the table. One of them asked: “The elbow doesn’t look like it’s the first time I’ve eaten Cantonese food. I don’t know if it’s really an expert or if it’s something I don’t know.”

We pretend to be sophisticated in front of Shu Yi."

"How can you be so sophisticated? Even the capital of Shu has just opened its first restaurant like this. Where can I eat Cantonese food in Jiachuan?"

"Where is the nearest big city to Jiachuan? Yuzhou, right?"

"Yuzhou is considered a big city. I heard that the seafood here is all airlifted from the South China Sea. What is this called? Vigorous! Yuzhou has been a heavy drag on several major factories in the past few years, but we still have to wait."

The speakers were Jiang Lin and Jiang Yuan, the youngest of the second and third uncle's families.

These two are both young masters in the family, and they have been pampered since childhood. They suffered a few years of hardship when they were young, but their lives at home soon became very good.

My studies were average, but my school was excellent, my parents were supportive, and my family valued education, so it was a smooth journey. After graduating from college, I happened to catch up with the country's emphasis on academic qualifications. The units I worked for were all pretty good, and I never lost my sense of superiority.

.

But this year is a little different. The arrival of my uncle and my sister this year has obviously attracted more attention from my uncle's family.

This was a bit unpleasant, but just now the uncle had praised Yaomei so much for bringing this pretty face to him, which made it even more unbearable.

There were still some concerns about Jiang Shuyi and the others, but they had no pressure on Zhou Zhi, so they started to sarcastically mock them.

Zhou Zhi couldn't help but feel amused secretly. Did the plot of showing off and slapping someone in the face have to be staged here today?

They are too lazy to pay attention to them. How can we live up to the rare delicacies?

He gave Jiang Shuyi a piece of Shacha beef: "Shuyi, if you like beef, eat more of this. This side dish is called kale. It is rarely grown in Sichuan, but it is very common in the south."

"It's delicious, but the name is weird. Why is it called Sha Cha Beef?"

"The transliteration of sand tea is a kind of condiment. It spread to Chaoshan from Indonesia. Chaoshan people use that spice and add peanuts, sesame, fish and shrimp to make a sauce. The Chaoshan hot pot made with that sauce uses beef.

Eating it by boiling it is authentic, and the current way of cooking it in a clay pot is actually an improvement of Chaoshan hotpot."

"Hey! It sounds like you have eaten it before. Let me ask you, elbow, where did you go to eat fresh seafood? You still talk about it so much."

"Cousin Shu Yi." Zhou Zhi put down his chopsticks and said with a smile: "First of all, I want to correct you a small mistake. Don't form a fixed combination of seafood and raw seafood. The so-called raw seafood refers to fish that are highly active and struggle violently in the water.

Seafood, to take a step back, also refers to seafood that has been kept alive until the restaurant. For example, lobster, grouper, etc., the only thing that can be called fresh seafood on the table now is a boiled shrimp."

"The rest, such as this scallop, are raw but not strong; this abalone was transported to the mainland in canned form, and the shark fin is dried, so it is neither raw nor strong."

"And the rest has nothing to do with seafood."

"You! This is not the first time that you have relied on our Jiang family to take advantage of this!"

"Cousin." Jiang Shuyi's face turned cold.

Zhou Zhi was really frightened when he saw that this girl was about to lose her temper. Jiang Shuyi's temper was so intense that if she was about to lose her temper, she would be merciless regardless of the occasion.

He quickly patted Jiang Shuyi's thigh secretly when no one was paying attention, signaling her not to interfere and to leave it to him.

As a result, this action seemed to be too intimate. Although it was hidden, it was still "in front of all relatives". Jiang Shuyi's face turned red and she didn't bother to scold her cousin.

Zhou Zhi then said slowly: "Two cousins, today is the first time we have met. You don't know me well, so your judgment of me now is all based on your own guesses based on limited information and... uh

,brain supplement."

"If I told you that there is a brother Yu downstairs who has been buying goods in Guangzhou for a long time, and he has been stuffing sea cucumbers, scallops, shark's fins, bird's nests, and dried abalone, prawns, yellow croaker, and hairtail into my house for a long time, forcing our family to practice Cantonese stewed dishes on a regular basis, would you believe it?

?”

"If I tell you that I have eaten all the dishes on this table, including dumplings with sea cucumbers and shrimps, and stewed chicken with abalone larger than this, would you believe it?"

"If I told you that I would treat Shu Yi to this crispy pigeon dish once or twice every semester, would you believe it?"

"You may not believe it, but let's do this. Every dish on the table now, and every dish that will be on the table next. On my side, and my two cousins ​​on the other side, we take turns naming the dishes, and then call the waiter over.

How about checking it?"

The two cousins ​​were really worried by Zhou Zhi and did not dare to agree.

Zhou Zhi smiled and said: "I guess you don't know much about it, so let me tell you what's on the table first: abalone in sauce, raw wings in soup stock, bird's nest in apricot sauce, scallops with garlic sauce, sashimi platter, boiled shrimp, crispy squab, sauce

Tea beef.”

"The ingredients in the sashimi platter are salmon, geoduck, and arctic clams."

"So when it comes to other things, I definitely can't compare with my two cousins, but when it comes to food, I really haven't lost to anyone yet."

"One more thing I want to remind my two cousins ​​is that I am a guest invited by your uncle and cousin. I have no friendship with you."

"You said that if I stand up now, scold you loudly and then walk away because you two don't eat your Jiang family's meal, what will be the consequences for me? What are the consequences for you two?

"

Zhou Zhi stood up as he spoke. Only then did the two young men realize this, their faces turned pale and they were extremely nervous.

Zhou Zhi smiled slightly and picked up the wine glass: "Of course I won't do that, because Shu Yi is my classmate and my good friend."

"So of course I won't offend my two cousins. Come here and bring the wine. Let's first wish everyone, especially my two cousins, a happy new year and all the best. Then we will go to the other two tables to respect our elders."

"Elbow, that was just a joke, don't take it seriously..." Jiang Yuan quickly pulled Jiang Lin, who was still a little reluctant, to stand up: "It was just a little joke, a little joke. If it goes too far, I will apologize to you.

Not much to say, not much to say, it’s all in the wine…”

After paying respects to this table, Zhou Zhi took Jiang Shuyi to the uncles' table, and naturally there was a lot of excitement again.

Jiang Shuyi was also surprised by Zhou Zhi's ability to change his face, and it was also the first time she was exposed to such Chinese dining etiquette. Thanks to Zhou Zhi's laughter and eloquent words, coupled with the banter of his godfather, she only had to stand there

Smile and you'll get big bonus points.

Especially Jiang Qiao. Today, her sister-in-law took her daughter to the People's Shopping Mall. When she came back dressed up, she turned into a fairy daughter. She almost didn't recognize her.
