Chapter 273 Happy Mid-Autumn Festival
While they were talking, Jiang Chunlan and Fu Liang also came over with things in their hands. Seeing that everyone was there, Ye Xiaocui simply moved up the dinner and invited Jiang Chunlan and her daughter to have lunch at her home.
Jiang Chunlan didn't hesitate and just rolled up her sleeves and went into the kitchen to help.
Fu Ming and Fu Liang helped, and Fu Wan was also preparing the side dishes in the kitchen.
Qin Anning and Bai Qianzhou did not consider themselves guests and sat in the yard with the two children peeling garlic.
The yard was suddenly so lively that when Boss Fu came back from Fu San's place, he thought he had walked into the wrong house. He stepped back and looked for a long time before he realized that there were guests.
This lunch at Mr. Fu’s house can be said to be more sumptuous than any previous Chinese New Year celebrations.
There is a table full of dishes and everyone shows off their skills.
Fu Wan made garlic-fried fairy clams and steamed red carp; Ye Xiaocui made braised pork trotters and stewed pork rib soup; and Fu Ming fried swordfish and steamed blue crabs and mantis shrimps.
Fu Wan even specially made some steamed eggs with sea urchin for Fu Ling and Qin Mingzhu to eat, but in the end it turned out that Qin An Ning liked this dish the most.
Of course, in addition to meat dishes, there are also some vegetables from the vegetable garden. One reason is that we are afraid that there will be too much meat and everyone will feel sick of it. The other reason is that the vegetables in the vegetable garden are really well grown and are fresh and tender.
Because there were so many people, Boss Fu specially moved out the big round table from his home and set it up. The table was full of people, but when the meal started, Fu Wan always felt that something was missing.
Qin Anning had been abroad for so long, and this was the first time she had eaten at someone else's house. She felt fresh and excited. Suddenly she remembered something, left a word and ran out.
"Wait a minute, I'm going to get something!"
Fu Wan was a little puzzled, so she followed him out to see if there was anything she could do to help. However, when she saw the several large bottles that Qin An Ning took out from the back seat of the car, she was shocked.
She could hardly believe her eyes. What Qin An Ning was holding in her hand was actually a large bottle of Coca-Cola.
"Awan, come here and help me get it!"
"Oh, here it comes!"
Fu Wan came to her senses and quickly walked over to take the Coke from Qin An Ning's hand.
Seeing her shocked expression, Qin An Ning was afraid that she would find this thing strange, so he hurriedly explained it to her.
"This is a drink called Coca-Cola. I bought it specially from the Friendship Store."
"I just remembered to take the biscuits, but I forgot to take the Coke, which was under the seat!"
Fu Wan nodded, but couldn't help herself. This was the first time she saw Coke, which was known as the happy water of fat otakus in her previous life, after her rebirth. She didn't expect it to look like this in the 1980s.
Unlike the exquisite packaging of later generations, the Coke packaging at this time could be said to be a bit rough. The rare large plastic bottle contained a brown liquid, and Fu Wan could even see occasional bubbles floating on the surface.
Friendship Store, it seems that this place has a lot of good things. Fu Wan thought to herself that her own boat needed to be repaired in the next few days, so she could take the opportunity to go to the Friendship Store while going to the shipyard.
You have to spend money to make money, otherwise it would be so boring!
The two of them walked into the courtyard holding Coke. When Bai Qianzhou saw it was Coke, he suddenly realized, "An Ning is indeed a girl, she is very clever and she even thought of this."
He passed by the Friendship Store several times, but never thought of buying this thing.
Bai Qianzhou really doesn't like drinking this, and thinks it's better to drink tea or wine.
But Fu Ming showed his support and took the large bottle from Qin Anning. Fu Wan unscrewed the Coke in her hand and poured half a bowl for Fu Ling and Qin Mingzhu.
Boss Fu and Bai Qianzhou poured wine into their bowls. Although Jiang Chunlan and Ye Xiaocui were a little curious, they didn't want to try it.
"Why is this thing so black and has foreign words on it?"
Jiang Chunlan muttered a few words softly, and Qin An Ning patiently explained to her.
"Auntie, this is what Comrade An Ning bought specially at the Friendship Store. It's called cola, and it's sweet. Try some after you finish your soup."
Jiang Chunlan had heard of the Friendship Store. It sold very expensive items, especially those specially for foreigners.
Fu Ling and Qin Mingzhu couldn't wait to take a sip, their eyes sparkling as they shouted to Qin An Ning, "Auntie, this is so delicious! You're such a great buy!"
"Oh, thank you. But you can't drink too much. You need to eat something."
"Ok!"
As expected, children cannot resist carbonated drinks. Fu Wan did not dare to let them drink too much. She picked up a few mantis shrimps for the two children. Now the two of them can eat shrimps and crabs without adults' supervision. It takes only minutes to peel shrimps.
Seeing the children eating happily, Fu Wan picked up her bowl and clinked it with Qin An Ning beside her. "Thank you, An Ning, for buying so many things. I hope you have fun."
Qin An Ning smiled with her eyes curved, "I should be the one thanking you. Mingzhu likes everyone here. I like them too."
She was sent abroad by her family to study when she was young. After she returned home, her elder sister, who depended on her for survival, passed away, leaving behind a niece whose whereabouts were unknown.
If she hadn't met Fu Wan's family, she wouldn't have dared to think about where she would spend the rest of her life looking for her sister's only child, not to mention that now Fu Wan treats Qin Mingzhu as her own daughter, so she, Qin An Ning, can devote herself to putting all her life's learning into practice.
After three rounds of drinks, Boss Fu looked at the people at the table and raised the bowl of white wine in his hand.
"I'm also very happy today. It's fate that we can all sit here and celebrate Mid-Autumn Festival. I don't have any other wishes, I just hope everyone can be happy and everything goes smoothly!"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone responded with their bowls in hand.
There's no way. There are no cups for guests at home. These days, people drink wine or water in bowls or enamel pots.
Even Fu Ling and Qin Mingzhu learned how to toast. After the two kids had almost finished their meal, they toasted each other and had a lot of fun.
After lunch, Bai Qianzhou said goodbye to everyone and returned to the camp.
When he left, he looked at Fu Wan meaningfully. Fu Wan didn't understand why, but she seemed to see a notebook in his bicycle basket, which looked familiar.
Qin An Ning was not in a hurry to leave. She had been busy for most of the month and finally asked her boss for a day off. She was planning to cultivate a good relationship with her niece here.
"Awan, I heard from Mingzhu that you guys go fishing at sea and even see turtles laying eggs and killer whales delivering fish. Is that true?"
Qin An Ning was really curious, after all, these were things she had never encountered before.
Fu Wan nodded. "There are two sea turtles and a few killer whales. They are more humane."
"Can I go out to sea with you guys these next two days?"
Qin An Ning asked impatiently, but saw Fu Wan shaking her head regretfully.
Fearing Qin Anning might misunderstand, Fu Wan explained to her, "It's not that I don't want to take you, but a swordfish poked a big hole in my boat yesterday, and we need to find someone to repair it before we can go out to sea."
Seeing Qin An Ning's disappointed face, Fu Wan softened her heart again: "But do you want to go to the beach to catch seafood? I can take you there to catch seafood in the evening."
