Chapter 635 Appreciate Art
In the afternoon, the early autumn sunshine shines through the thin curtains on the sleeping beauty on the bed. The Texas girl’s unique plump figure outlines an amazing arc under the sheets, so beautiful It's like an oil painting by John William Gwede.
("Idle Moments" 1895 John William Godward)
After a long time, a fragrant and seductive fragrance spread into the bedroom, Hannah's straight nose twitched subconsciously, and her long eyelashes trembled It took a long time, until the fragrance became stronger and stronger, and then he opened his eyes in confusion.
I stood up and stretched out comfortably. I subconsciously reached out to grab the slipping bed sheets to block the ecstasy. The little sweet girl chuckled twice, as if she was still thinking about something, and then she was struck by that annoying The aroma made my stomach growl.
She jumped out of bed as fast as she could and rushed into the bathroom. After a while, she wrapped herself in a sheet and ran downstairs. As she approached the living room, the aroma of food became more and more enticing.
"Girl I'm going to tell you how to do it, and then let's start slowly, you just put your lips together"
In the kitchen next to the living room, Jack was humming FloRida's Xiao Huang sang "Whistle" and whistled a short section from time to time. Although he was tone deaf when singing, he whistled extremely well.
"Bad guy." Hannah ignored the slipping sheets and jumped on his back, blushing and biting his ear.
"Be careful." Jack quickly put down the long-handled spoon in his hand and hooked the little sweet girl's leg. He really didn't mean to tease her about her performance last night. That's what the original lyrics were like.
An extra-large soup pot was simmering on the stove in front of him. The thick white beef bone soup inside was bubbling and emitting a strange aroma.
This is the first batch of Angus steers produced by Chris Brothers Farm. The quality is quite good. In addition to more than thirty pounds of marbled eye muscles, the brothers also sent Jack’s cattle as requested. Two beef hind leg bones sawn into pieces, part of the beef vertebrae, several oxtails and more than ten pounds of preliminarily processed tripe.
Stewing beef bone soup is also very particular, because the spinal cord in the stick bones is too rich in oil, so it needs to be paired with some beef vertebrae that are rich in gelatin. For a more luxurious one, it would be better to add a piece of oxtail. , the stewed soup is thick and viscous, and will turn into a jelly-like gel after cooling. One bite can make gout patients wreak havoc on the spot.
While Hannah was still sleeping in bed, Jack was already busy. He had been boiling this pot of soup for more than four hours. He added some fresh mushrooms and sprinkled a few wolfberries into it. Perfect, after all, there are some things that cannot just rely on treatment, nutrition must also keep up.
In the next few days, except for occasionally going out to the supermarket to replenish some fresh vegetables and fruits, the two of them didn't go out much.
After all, Rossi's penthouse apartment is well-equipped, and even has a dedicated gym and a private cinema. The two of them are somewhat homely, so they can enjoy themselves together listening to music, reading, and playing games.
Jack doesn't like fighting games very much, especially side-scrolling battle games like "Soul Calibur 6". His favorite is the kind of strategy game where a person squats in front of the computer and colors the map. .
But it’s another thing when there is a beautiful girl next to him who always provokes him. In order to let Jack play with her, Hannah offers the idea of whistling for him if she loses three games in a row. An offer no one can refuse.
After all, not liking it very much and not being good at it are two different things. After being tortured seven or eight times, and when he got familiar with the skills and moves, the originally smug Hannah's face changed suddenly, she screamed and threw away the controller. He climbed over the sofa and ran away, but was caught back by Jack who was well prepared.
Just when the big bad wolf showed a ferocious evil smile and was about to take care of her, the disappointing cell phone rang.
Jack put his hand around Hannah, who had just tried to escape the golden cicada but failed, and was still struggling desperately. He answered the phone with a smile, "Detective Reagan, are you satisfied with those oysters?"
"Uh, Jack , I remember you can speak several languages, I wonder how good your Chinese is?" Danny Regan seemed to be in a prosperous place, and the background sound on the phone was very noisy.
"It depends on which dialect you are asking about." Jack was stunned by his question, and his answer also made Danny on the other side of the phone a little confused.
It’s not that Jack is being pretentious, it’s actually a special situation in the United States. In his previous life, he was considered a southerner in a broad sense, but in the eyes of the Fujianese people in Laoguang, he is a northerner in the true sense. After all, the name Jiangnan is It depends on which river you choose. The Yangtze River and the Pearl River are both considered rivers. He has no problem with most of the dialects in China, at least he can understand them roughly. The only ones he can't handle are Wenzhou dialect, Hokkien, and Cantonese, and these dialects are the most popular overseas.
I don’t know if it’s influenced by American TV series. Most of the Chinese people in this world speak a weird fake Chinese. It’s unclear whether it’s Cantonese or something. There are also weird English words mixed in. On the contrary, it’s better than those Chinese. English is much more difficult to understand.
To his detriment, when he went to Flushing for a walk before, most of the time he could only bargain with the vendors by using gestures and guessing.
But Danny's impatience didn't bother him for too long, "Whatever, are you free now? I'm in Chinatown in the lower city, and my brother James is in trouble."
At this time, Hannah also realized that there was something serious. She stopped playing with Jack and waved him away quickly. Anyway, they had played a lot of similar little games between lovers in the past few days. , she always suffered the loss, but this time she was able to let it go.
"No problem, I'll come over now." Jack hung up the phone neatly, grabbed Hannah and kissed her hard several times before changing clothes and going out.
It was already ten o'clock in the evening. Their vacation had just ended today, and it was time to go to work tomorrow. It was really not suitable to play too late.
After New York entered autumn, the temperature difference between day and night was very obvious. Jack changed his shirt and put on a beige British-style long windbreaker to cover the gun on his waist. He left it unbuttoned and drove his The plainclothes police car, the Dodge Hellcat, was out.
"The way you dress reminds me of a comic book character." Danny blurted out the first time he saw Jack.
“Uh, I didn’t wear a dark red tie.” Jack firmly refused to admit that his outfit was that of COS, even though Hannah bought him this windbreaker for this purpose, “Tell me what’s going on. "
Danny's younger brother James Regan was also wearing civilian clothes, with a police badge on his chest, and a look of panic on his face, "There are two suspects with guns. Tried to kidnap a Chinese girl. After I revealed my identity, they ran away
One of them got into the car and ran away, and I tried to catch up with the other one who ran away on foot, and that's it." He pointed to a body lying at the intersection.
"This guy panicked and ran into Got a taxi. "
"Although the current scene is indeed a bit chaotic, why do you say that your brother is in trouble? "Jack looked at the crowd of people watching the fun at the intersection and asked with some confusion.
Danny sighed, "Because James saw that they had guns at that time, so he also pulled them out. Pistol, but now, this guy is lying there with nothing at hand or on his body. He should have thrown it away during the chase between the two.
Now that the Chinese girl who was almost kidnapped has disappeared, in the absence of witnesses, the Ministry of Internal Affairs will definitely find trouble for my brother. ”
James Regan quickly added, "No, no, no, there was also a witness present at the time, who looked like a companion of the kidnapped girl. The suspect who drove away had previously pressed her against the wall with his backhand. Maybe There is a wound on my forehead. "
"So you asked me if I can speak Chinese because you want me to find those two Chinese girls in Chinatown? You think too highly of me. Maybe you need a sense of smell. A sensitive dog.”
Jack curled his lips, Danny was somewhat sick and rushed to the hospital. This Chinatown in lower Manhattan is not a kind place, compared to the emerging Chinese gathering area of Farah. Sheng, there are all kinds of strange gangs here, such as the famous "Triad".
Even in Flushing, Queens, with the economic downturn in recent years and the Donkey Party’s misdemeanor campaign, the crime rate has also skyrocketed. This shabby old Chinatown Not to mention.
"I know, whether it's a gun or a person, it's hard to find if you lose it here." Danny covered his forehead and followed his gaze to look around, "But at least there is someone who can help me follow the surroundings. Someone asked me something. I tried it just now and I couldn’t understand what they were saying.”
