Chapter 300 Proof
“So I think etiquette should not be used to convey bad intentions, create barriers, show arrogance, highlight narrowness, mark arrogance, and pretend to be hypocritical. If someone does this , then it is no longer etiquette, but impolite; people who do that , It’s not about observing etiquette, but about improving etiquette.”
“It’s wrong to abandon the essentials and save the true. I don’t know why every book that teaches etiquette emphasizes the elegance of etiquette. , style, emphasizing personal accomplishment, temperament, and appearance bonuses , sometimes mention respect and obedience, but at most they stop there and ignore the most critical premise - from the heart. "
"So Xunzi believes: 'The ritual is broken and the short is continued. "There is more than enough harm but not enough benefit". It is also said that "the person who is polite is respectful to others". This is the East. The biggest difference between etiquette and Western etiquette.”
“If we Chinese only know how to imitate and degenerate ‘ritual’ into ‘performance art’, and think that is a kind of progress, I only think that it is progress. What a degradation and irony.”
"That's all you can say!" Chi Xueli rolled his eyes: "You can't even stop your mouth with delicious food."
"I won't say it anymore." At this time, the pasta and cream were thick When the soup came, Zhou Zhi took off a large piece of his black pepper steak and said, "Shuyi, try this flavor. It's not bad. You can eat more pasta."
"Eh? Zhou Zhi, this we have eaten "Right?" Jiang Shuyi looked at the macaroni: "You told us it's called snail noodles." Stir-fried mutton with cumin and onions, I wonder if Italians will complain about it.”
“I can’t believe that Jiachuan is a small place where you can buy everything.”
"Hi! It's so funny to talk about this." Zhou Zhi said: "It was produced by a flour mill in Longgan Province, which introduced an Italian macaroni production line. Then it had all Italian characters on the packaging and sent it to the Canton Fair to prepare for coaxing. Foreigners buy and earn foreign exchange for the country’s exports.”
"My downstairs man, Mr. Yu, has a very good relationship with our family. Their third brother owns a cosmetics store in Manzhou and often travels to Guangzhou. His biggest hobby is to buy things that he doesn't even know and give them away."
"So?" Chi Xueli had already anticipated that the story was about to get exciting.
"So when the third brother saw this, he thought it was a good thing from abroad. The key is that it is rare and cheap, so he bought a lot of it and brought it back to give away."
"The result is that our country is in trouble. Macaroni produced in Gansu Province , I went all the way to Guangzhou, and then brought it back all the way, and no one in my hometown knew how to eat it. Upstairs, Guan Tingting’s mother cooked the chicken nuggets as noodles, and thought they were smooth and tough, not very good. Eat.”
"Ah? Hahahaha..." Chi Xueli smiled and said: "How did you make the elbow?"
"I went to Xinhua Bookstore to check the recipe and found out that this thing is called macaroni. It turns out that it is really a kind of Western food. , the approach is actually the same as Our burning noodles and hot dry noodles are almost the same as the fried noodles in the northwest. ”
“It’s hard to find the ingredients for Western food, so it’s made in Western cuisine.”
"It's delicious." Jiang Shu After two bites of the pasta made with red sauce at Jinjiang Hotel, I recommended it to Zhou Zhi: "The one made by Zhou Zhi is much more delicious than this one." Change to foreign Green onions, add a little extra cumin to the ingredients. Put the snail shell noodles in a pot of boiling water with salt and cook until cooked through, then remove the drippings and set aside. After the green onions and mutton are fried, add the noodles and mix well. It’s so simple. Very.”
"Hmm...is there anything simpler?"
"Ah this..." Zhou Zhi thought for a moment and pointed at the plate of noodles on the table with his fork: "This is the red sauce noodles, chopped tomatoes. Puree, burn oil, add minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, add minced onion, stir-fry until it changes from light purple to white, add tomato puree, stir-fry for a while, turn down the heat, cover the pot and simmer for half an hour, the tomato sauce is ready ”< br>
“Put salt under boiling water and cook the pasta for fifteen minutes until there are no hard spots in the middle. Pick it up and put it on a plate and pour the red sauce over it.”
“If it’s Sister Chi, you If you still think the taste is too dull, you can just add a few white water shrimps and beans." Chi Xueli thought for a while: "I think I can do this."
"Of course." Zhou Zhi couldn't help but laugh: "Remember to use olive oil. If you can add a little butter, it will be more fragrant."
"Xue Li, what can you do?" A voice sounded at the door. A nice female voice, but it was Jiang Shuyi's sister-in-law and eldest brother who arrived.
"Come to my house this weekend and show you my skills." Chi Xueli proudly cooked and sold them: "Make Italian macaroni! I'll treat everyone to Western food!"
"Oh, I don't dare. Get fooled!" Tang Qi couldn't help but joke about Chi Xueli. : "The person who almost set the dormitory on fire has a dark history."
"Shu Yi is used to eating, isn't he?" Jiang Wu frowned a little when he looked at the things on the table: "Qiqi, you can do whatever you want, I will." Just add this soup to this basket of bread.”
"That's what I'm comfortable with." Tang Qi said angrily, "Another order!"
"It doesn't matter, sister-in-law, just let the eldest brother have my share, and Zhou Zhi and I can share his share. "
"That's not necessary, I agreed to invite you today." Zhou Zhi smiled and said, "Jiang Da. Brother, Sister Qiqi, you can order whatever you want.”
“I really can’t get used to this. Why don’t you go out to make some dumplings later?”
“You. Don't talk about this here, okay?" Tang Qi looked around, feeling a little embarrassed.
"Is there a pot with pickled cabbage and vermicelli?" Zhou Zhi took up the topic: "We Chinese are more particular about the combination of meat and vegetables. After eating the foreign fried pork and noodles with mixed sauce, it is worth a visit."
"That's right, another plate of fresh meat and leek dumplings and a plate of eggs Cabbage dumplings, plus a bottle of Erguotou..." Jiang Wu was excited by Zhou Zhi's teasing. Only when he said this did he see his wife's face looking a little ugly: "Uh... forget about the wine..."
"Brother Jiang Did you serve as a soldier in the north?" Zhou Zhi asked.
"My brother is a master's degree graduate from Harbin Military Industry." Jiang Shuyi said.
"Now that I am working in an administrative job, my master's degree is just a slap in the face, and all my majors have been lost." Jiang Wu explained, as if he was mocking himself: "A revolutionary soldier can take a brick wherever he needs to go." Move! By the way, I don’t know much about this today, what’s your relationship with...Xue Li?”
"It's fate." Chi Xueli chuckled: "At first, I went to interview Zhuzi's grandmother, an old underground party member. Later, Zhuzi came to see me during the holiday. We, brother and sister, joined forces and accomplished a lot. Big deal! ”
For helping Jiachuan County Middle School to develop a question bank, it contributed to Jiachuan Middle School and Shudu Key Middle School reached a co-construction cooperation and study tour exchange, and before she asked Zhou Zhi to work on "Wangcong Temple Travel Notes", and later Zhou Zhi asked her to work on the "Aspirational Youth" topic, this series of things was actually Chi Xue's The result of Li and Zhou Zhi's mutual achievements made Chi Xueli feel faintly proud.
It’s just that Chi Xueli had been suffering from the lack of a “witness” before, and it was difficult to show off in front of her best friends. Now she has seized the opportunity. She is so proud that she says this sentence from time to time. : "Elbow, tell me, was it like this at that time?!"
Zhou Zhi never expected Sister Chi to be so bragging, and could only echo: "Yes! I can prove it! Sister Chi has outstanding abilities, wise decisions, and outstanding achievements. She is indeed the host with the highest comprehensive quality in the province and Taiwan!" ”
