Chapter 675 Feng Shui
“Zhou Zhi.”
Zhou Zhi turned around and saw Zhang Xinyi with a smile on his face.
"Xin Yi, are you so happy? Have you washed your hands?"
Zhang Xinyi stretched out his hand to show Zhou Zhi, his face still a little red: "You still have a way."
"Have you eaten?" Zhou Zhi asked.
"Huh?" Zhang Xinyi blushed even more: "Not yet..."
"I haven't eaten yet, let's go see what we can do."
"Yeah."
Going through the living room partition is the dining room. To the left of the dining room is the kitchen. There is another small door at the bottom of the kitchen, which is the bathroom.
"Did Shu Yiyi wash it off?" Zhou Zhi entered the kitchen: "Oh, you brought back so many ice powder fruits!"
There was a plastic basket next to the kitchen sink, with something the size of a baby's fist inside. green fruit.
This thing is what Jiachuan people use to make ice powder. It has a nice scientific name of "Xue Li".
"How about we eat ice powder." Zhang Xinyi suggested, after all, this is the fruit of their labor.
Zhang Xinyi almost hated these fruits when his hands were dirty before, but now he seems to find them no longer annoying.
Zhou Zhi smiled and said: "Ice powder is almost the same as water, how can I be full? Let's see..."
"I have loofah and water spinach at home, and there is meat and cold rice in the refrigerator." Jiang Shuyi He also washed his hands clean, and his face was still wet. He probably washed his face by the way: "I'll do it..."
"I'll make fried rice with pickled cabbage and sliced loofah meat. You pick the water spinach. Come out." Zhou Zhi said.
The kitchen area is quite large, and there is a small square table here. It seems that Jiang Shuyi's family of three eat here more often when there are no guests at home.
Everyone set up their own battlefields, and Jiang Shuyi asked: "Zhou Zhi, did you and your brother go to the capital smoothly?"
Jiang Shuyi knew the general situation of the BJ trip, and Zhou Zhi also called back several times. Jiang Shuyi was afraid that Zhang Xinyi would become suspicious, so she was trying to hide it.
“Oh, it went very smoothly,” Zhou Zhi gave an overview of the circumstances of his trip to the capital, and finally said: “It’s a pity that unlike your brother and Mr. Qiao, I basically don’t have time. I just went out to play with the old man.”
“I’m so envious of Brother Qiao Mu. He’s going to school in the capital soon,” Zhang Xinyi said.
"Zhou Zhi, you can't run around anymore." Jiang Shuyi was a little worried: "You haven't done any homework this holiday, have you?"
"That's right." Zhou Zhi asked Said: "Principal Zhao, did you get back all the questions from No. 4 and No. 7 No. 7?"
"We got it back and sent it to us in advance." Jiang Shuyi said: "We asked Wei Fei and Wen Yu to finish math. I discussed politics and English with Xin Yi and finished it. I'm not sure about English, either. Let Sister Wei Yi take care of it.”
“It’s Chinese, geography and history, some of which are waiting for you to come back,” Zhang Xinyi added.
“Don’t worry, this is quick.” Zhou Zhi smiled.
“I heard from my brother that your book “Sichuan Fun Talk” has been translated and will be published in English?” Jiang Shuyi asked. "Really?!" Zhang Xinyi was so surprised: "Really?"
"Not even a single character is written." Zhou Zhi said with a smile: "You also know the translator Shu Yi, the foreigner I met last time in Shudu, Fu Xia."
"She? She's not Graduate student? "Jiang Shuyi did. I became a little worried: "Is her level good enough?"
"There is no problem with the modern literary part." Zhou Zhi quickly put the chopped pickled cabbage into the pot and stir-fried, and then poured down the cold rice: "Classic Chinese I'm tired of watching some parts , I will have to ask Grandpa Shi for guidance."
Jiang Shuyi thought this translation was difficult: "How to translate twice-cooked pork?"
"Twicecookedporkslices." Zhou Zhi said: "We discussed it, and I am afraid that the recipes of the entire Sichuan cuisine system will use the three translation methods commonly used today, namely transliteration, free translation, and literal translation."
"For example, fish-flavored shredded pork. Foreigners have no intuitive feeling for this flavor. It is a combination of transliteration and free translation, yu-xiangshreddedpork."
"For example, lychee fish fillet, this flavor simulates the sourness of lychee. Sweetness, and foreigners have an intuitive understanding of it, so they use free translation. , just translate it into Fishfillet with Litchiflavor.”
“As for twice-cooked pork, we have to use the literal translation-Twicecooked pork slices.”
“It seems quite complicated.”
Jiang Shuyi listened very carefully, because her family had already determined the major she would pursue in the future: "When Fu Xia has translated the manuscript, Zhou Zhi, please remember to show it to me."
"No wonder Shu Yi, your English is so good. Those who are near the water and the towers get the moon first." Zhang Xinyi nodded.
“Hey Xinyi, what did you say?” Jiang Shuyi suddenly became shy.
Zhang Xinyi was envious of Jiang Shuyi’s resources in learning English. He just blurted it out. Now that he saw Jiang Shuyi’s shyness, he immediately understood. By the way, he started teasing her and touched her on the shoulder. Jiang Shuyi shouldered a shoulder and said a little narrowly: "Isn't that the case? This time I even moved my house." Go upstairs and downstairs."
"Aunt Su said." Jiang Shuyi lowered her head, with a hint of resentment in her tone: "Zhou Zhi's family won't move yet."
" Ah? Why?" Zhang Xinyi felt incredible: "Why don't you move to such a good house?"
Zhou Zhi's house is on the top floor, with two rooms on one staircase and a loft. It is equivalent to the area of three houses in Jiang Shuyi's house and also has a garden the size of another. In total, it has a two-story house of 230 square meters and a With a garden of 150 square meters, it is definitely a first-class house in Jiachuan today.
Seeing that Jiang Shuyi already knew that her home would not be moved for the time being, Zhou Zhi secretly breathed a sigh of relief. There was no need to waste time explaining this matter.
So he smiled and said: "It's my mother and grandmother. They think the dormitory of the Sugar and Wine Company has good feng shui and will probably make me prosperous in the next few years, so they just wait until I'm admitted to college before moving here."
"Really?" Zhang Xinyi knew the details of Zhou Zhi: "Zhou Zhi, you have been smart since you were a child, but you have never been very fond of learning. "The fortune teller said that you won't be able to determine your root until you are sixteen...it seems right..."
"How come you are also superstitious?" Zhou Zhi had already shoveled the meat slices out of the pot quickly, and then Pour down the loofah and stir-fry: "I think they are probably also doubtful. They would rather believe that it exists than believe that it does not exist."
It sounded like he was explaining to Zhang Xinyi, but in fact, he was explaining it to Jiang Shuyi.
After listening to Zhou Zhi's explanation, Jiang Shuyi relaxed. She also sincerely hoped that Zhou Zhi would be a good person. She also listened to the ten words "I would rather believe what he has than what he has not". .
"Actually, Jiachuan is not a place like the capital of Shu. Zhang Weiran and Xu Hui wanted to meet. They made an appointment to meet at the provincial library, and they had to take a bus for half an hour each." Zhou Zhi said to the loofah. Fry until it is half cooked, return the previously smoothed meat slices to the pot, throw away some scallions, add salt and turn it over a few times and take it out of the pot. Then wash the pot and prepare to stir-fry the water spinach. "How convenient is it for us to meet? Isn't it just a matter of minutes?"
