Chapter 123: Meeting
"I really don't understand, you can figure it out. To be honest, it's the first time I eat French food. I don't know what's delicious about it." If you understand, you understand. If you don't understand, you don't understand. Jiang Hai said The greatest advantage of a man is his self-confidence. In front of women, he pretends not to understand, so after looking around, he smacked his teeth.
He handed the menu card back and said helplessly.
Hearing Jiang Hai's words, Sandy-Clive here was taken aback for a moment, because in her opinion, a rich person like Jiang Hai should be pursuing the quality of life in normal times. That's why I brought Jiang Hai to eat French food, but unexpectedly, Jiang Hai hadn't eaten it, which made Xiandi a little dumbfounded.
"Okay, then I hope you will order it later, you will find it delicious, give us two set meals." After taking a look at the menu, Sandy Clive studied it and said.
"Excuse me, is it set A, set B or set C?" Hearing Sandy's words, the waiter here continued to ask.
"Set B." Looking at the menu, Sandy Clive thought for a while and said.
The so-called set a, set b, and set c are also particular here. Set a is commonly known as the traditional set meal, with a total of 13 dishes, the first frozen appetizer, the second soup, and the third hot appetizer , the fourth fish, the fifth main course, the sixth hot dish, the seventh cold dish, the eighth sorbet, the ninth barbecue or salad, the tenth vegetable, the eleventh dessert, The twelfth course is salty, and the thirteenth course is dessert. Generally speaking, these are very formal banquets, so there are so many talks.
Apparently Jiang Hai didn't have the patience to wait for him to serve thirteen dishes. It was precisely because he felt it that Sandy ordered set meal b. Set meal b consisted of five dishes, frozen appetizer, soup, hot appetizer, and main course , Dessert, in addition to the c set meal, it is an appetizer, frozen or hot, you can choose at will, a main course, and a dessert.
The frozen appetizer Sandy-Clive chose tuna salad. Of course, it is estimated that one person cannot give a few slices of tuna. The soup is the cream of mushroom soup. After all, this is the most famous French dish. The hot appetizer She chose French Potato Potatoes, and the last dessert was Strawberry Crepe, but when it came to the main meal, she was a little hesitant.
"Do you have any recommendations today?" Everything else was done, and Sandy wasn't in a hurry. After hesitating for a long time, she still couldn't make a decision, so she raised her head and asked the waiter in front of her.
"Today's recommendation is red wine stewed beef. We just received the new Burgundy red wine from France this morning. You two can try it." Hearing what the waiter said, Sandy-Clive nodded in satisfaction. .
"That's it, it's ready to serve." As she was sure she wanted this, the waiter over there also bowed respectfully, and went down to tell the kitchen to serve the food. After he left, Jiang Hai looked at Sandy Clive.
"It seems that you come here often." Looking around, Jiang Hai said to Sandy-Clive.
"Well, I often come to this place, because a long time ago, my father was a chef here, and I often came here to play when I was young, but since my father stopped working here, I probably still have I’ve been here four or five times.” Hearing Jiang Hai’s words, Sandy-Clive laughed and said, hearing her words, Jiang Hai couldn’t help but nodded, the French chef seems to be very powerful .
"What about you? A rich man like you, have you never eaten French food? You shouldn't!" After answering Jiang Hai's question, Sandy-Clive asked Jiang Hai. Hearing her words, Jiang Hai's face I feel a little ashamed.
"Hehe, me, don't laugh when you say it. I used to be born in hardship. Later, by chance, I got rich, so I came to the United States and bought Green Forest Manor. In my bones, there are still some Small-scale peasant thinking, so you see that I hardly communicate with people in the town at ordinary times, I just stay at home. To be honest, you may not believe it. Apart from knowing the mayor and the police chief, I also know the superintendents in the town. Apart from what the salespeople in the market look like, I only know my subordinates. I don’t know anyone in the town. I usually come to eat in the town, and I often go to the Italian restaurant on the west side of the town. Their fried crab meat is still delicious." Looking at Sandy-Clive, Jiang Hai said slowly.
"Wow, you are really different from the rich people I know." Hearing Jiang Hai's words, Sandy-Clive said in surprise. Originally, she thought that Jiang Hai had no connection with the town. It's because he doesn't like the residents of the town. He may have his own circle of friends, but now it seems that the shy boy in front of him seems to be an otaku.
"I didn't expect that you would like to eat the food from that Italian restaurant. I also like it. Have you ever tried the lobster pasta?" Hai spoke casually.
"I've tried it, and it tastes good. The milk flavor is very strong, but to me, it's a bit fishy. Apart from this, everything else is fine." Jiang Hai immediately said after hearing Sandy-Clive's words.
"How can a lobster not be fishy, and I heard that there are fishing grounds in the Green Forest. You, a fisherman, don't eat fishy fish?" Sandy-Clive said half-jokingly after looking at Jiang Hai amusedly.
"Uh, eat, so what I said is a little fishy, not particularly fishy." Jiang Hai blinked and said innocently.
"Okay, are you playing language traps with a teacher? Do you think this is really good?" Looking at Jiang Hai, Sandy couldn't help laughing.
Seeing Sandy's appearance, Jiang Hai also smiled slightly, and then continued.
To be honest, this should be the first time Jiang Hai has said so much to a girl in the past two years.
Although Jiang Hai is a bit shy and introverted, he is a very cheerful person, but since his parents passed away, he has somewhat inferiority complex when meeting strangers.
Therefore, his cheerful side will only face people he is familiar with, not strangers.
He and Sandy should be strangers, but there is no way, he hasn't chatted with people of the same age for a long time. In the manor, there are only two people of the same age as him. He chatted, and although Bell sometimes chatted with him for a while, but more time, he also had to work.
The only ones who could chat with him, and those who had free time to chat with him, were Philemon's two sons, but they just came over for a holiday. After Christmas and New Years, they left. Let's go, Jiang Hai has nothing to do.
After holding back for several days, today when Sandy got his addiction to talking, he also started to talk non-stop.
As for Xiandi, she also likes to hear what Jiang Hai said, because what Jiang Hai said seems to her to be very interesting and simple, and she doesn't have the sense of those rich boys bragging in their mouths all day long. Money, but the words are very close to life.
This made Sandy have a good impression of Jiang Hai. In addition, Jiang Hai helped their school solve the money problem, and the preconceived gratitude, coupled with this slight favor, may have to be discussed later, but at least Now she is very willing to chat with Jiang Hai. As a teacher, they are actually very good at talking, so the more they chat, the happier they are.
Even after the food was served, the two of them were eating and talking at the same time. In fact, this is somewhat impolite in western countries, just like the requirements of the elderly in China. They should not talk when they eat or sleep, but both of them It's the same age, and no one cares about it.
Still talking hotly, as the conversation between the two deepened, Sandy-Clive found that Jiang Hai is really an interesting man...
Maybe because he didn't work outside after leaving school, sometimes Jiang Hai was a little naive.
He doesn't speak like an adult, but more like a big boy.
Listening to his complaints, listening to his jokes, and listening to him showing off the fish and beef in his manor, Sandy-Clive suddenly felt that this guy seemed really interesting, and he was not like she imagined. Some of them are so pretentious, or they are off-line, but some are jumping off the line. Whether such a person is suitable to be a boyfriend is another matter, but it is not bad to be a friend.
"The beef here is good, but the beef itself is too far from mine. When you have time, you can come to my place to play. If nothing else, premium A-grade beef is enough." Jiang Haike at this time Didn't notice any changes in Sandy Clive.
He just pointed at the Burgundy red wine stew in front of him with a fork, and said to her with a smile.
"Okay, then I want to taste it. I haven't eaten the taste of premium A-grade beef in a few days. Let me tell you, the last time I ate premium A-grade beef, my dad was still here. As for the chef, I sneaked into the back kitchen to eat it, and it has been many years now. At that time, I only ate a small piece, but I was fascinated by this thing, but you said, enough, then I'll eat it tomorrow." Seeing Jiang Hai talking about the beef in his manor, Sandy-Clive also said with a smile.
"Okay, no problem, you are welcome anytime, but my manor is now a piece of white, there is nothing to play, and the boat will freeze to death. If you wait for a while and the cows are released, you can go to sea. , that would be more fun." Jiang Hai is not bragging, the premium grade beef in his manor is indeed enough, in his opinion, Sandy-Clive is now his friend, It's no big deal to come over for a beef meal, the only pity is that there's nothing to do right now.
"It doesn't matter, we can eat it at night... By the way, I heard you said that you haven't visited Boston well, how about it, to thank you for inviting me to eat beef tomorrow night, I will be your guide during the day tomorrow , take you around Boston!"
