Chapter 1999 Don’t Be Shy
After a long journey, the old man didn’t go to the restaurant for lunch. Instead, he ordered the food and asked the waiter to deliver it to the room.
The old man ate something soft and easy to digest, while the young people naturally ate whatever they wanted according to their own taste. Of course, some local specialties must be ordered.
For example, ‘milk fan’ is a very good choice. The 18 strange things in Yunnan, ‘milk is made into fans and sold’, refers to milk fan.
And there are many ways to eat milk fan. It can be cooked, roasted, fried, pan-fried, and boiled. The Bai nationality’s three-course tea made with milk fan, roasted tea, walnut flour, etc. is very special.
However, Yang Dongxu didn’t like this kind of tea. The habit he developed since childhood was that tea and other things were natural when soaked in water with tea leaves. Tea made with various things always felt weird.
Raw milk fan is very tough and difficult to bite open. It feels a bit like eating a northern roll when it is torn, and it is even tougher than that. Half-cooked ones can be eaten by biting, but they are a bit sticky and have a smell of milk if not handled properly. So frying is a good choice.
It tastes crispy and a bit like the fried hemp leaves (a kind of hemp leaf-shaped dough fried food) at home during the Chinese New Year, but it doesn't have the sesame flavor of hemp leaves, but has a milky flavor that feels very good.
"This thing is good, you can take some back when you leave." Zhou Ya couldn't help but say while eating the milk fan in her mouth.
"You can take some back as a specialty to give to relatives and friends. Take some back when you leave, and then I'll say hello to Yang Jiayan here. If you want to eat it, just say so and mail some fresh ones back. Although this thing can be stored for a month after drying, the taste of a month is definitely not as good as that of fresh drying."
The old man was accompanied by his parents in the room. After dinner, he would walk around and take a nap. In this weather today, he couldn't go out until the evening.
Yang Dongxu and several other young people gathered in the living room of a suite to eat, instead of eating separately.
Because the suites on this floor of the hotel were basically booked by Yang Dongxu, the doors were all open. Little guys like Lan Yi ran to each room to get a bite and ate happily.
It's a pity that his son Wenwu and daughter Tangtang are not here at this time, otherwise the little brats will definitely be more noisy when they get together.
"What are the plans for the evening?" Zhuo Qing'er asked while biting her nipple fan.
"Let's go to the ancient city of Dali first, and then find a special restaurant in the ancient city to eat in the evening. I asked someone to push the wheelchair under the bus out.
The terrain of the ancient city is relatively flat, and you can push the wheelchair to continue to see when you are tired. You can play for a long time and come back before going to bed." Yang Dongxu said.
"The ethnic costumes in the ancient city are quite good. Do you want to get a set according to your own size in advance and wear it for a stroll in the evening?" Zhuo Qing'er said with bright eyes.
She is a fashion designer, and even has the highest-end wedding company. So she is not unfamiliar with the tourist features of Dali.
She even borrowed the venue in the ancient city to hold a very distinctive classical wedding for the son of a wealthy family.
"You can wear it if you want, and you can take pictures as a souvenir." Yang Dongxu nodded and thought this was a good idea.
"Ask the opinions of grandparents, they may not be willing to wear it." Zhou Ya reminded.
The main reason for not wanting to wear it is Mr. Xuan. This stubborn old man has no problem wearing a Taoist robe, but he will definitely not be happy to wear ethnic costumes.
As for my father-in-law Zhou Yiren, there is no problem. My father-in-law is very philanthropic. When he was doing research, he went deep into the local area and mingled with the local people. Naturally, he was happy to wear ethnic costumes.
A group of people are wearing ethnic costumes, and Mr. Xuan is the only one dressed in modern clothes. It must be awkward to take a group photo.
"Why not wear some imitation ancient costumes? It's a burden to wear those grand ethnic costumes in the summer.
Just wear some imitation ancient costumes to wear in the summer, and it's also good to take photos with the ancient city. For example, it's good to wear a printed long dress with large sleeves for children like Jiali." The speaker is the eldest sister Hongying.
Although Hongying is now at home taking care of her husband and children, managing the family's breeding farm, etc., it seems that she has nothing to do with the clothing industry. But at least she was a person who opened a clothing store at the beginning, and she has always been in contact with Zhuo Qing'er.
In the past two years, costumes such as ancient costumes and Hanfu have been very popular in China, and short shirts and T-shirts with ancient costume design styles and patterns are also very popular. So she knows more or less about this aspect.
"This idea is not bad, although the simple imitation of ancient costumes is not as conspicuous as pure ancient costumes and ethnic costumes. But it is also good to match the night view of the ancient city." Zhuo Qing'er nodded.
Imitation of ancient costumes are between ancient costumes and modern costumes, and are not as distinctive as ancient costumes. Compared with modern elements, they have more ancient charm. Wearing them to visit the ancient city is indeed a good choice.
"Is there enough time?" Yang Dongxu couldn't help but say.
This is not going to a clothing store to get ready-made products, this is to be redesigned and made.
"It's not a big problem. Antique summer clothes are not new clothes. There are ready-made ones in my clothing store. If I make them, there are many samples and I don't have to redesign them. It's so troublesome.
Measure the bodies of a few little brats later. The children grow too fast and the previous sizes are definitely not usable. Send the sizes to the store, and there is no time to start work there now. By the way, Dong Yao will also measure them later."
"I'll do it here." Dong Yao opened her mouth to solve the problem, thinking that it was not good to always ask for other people's things.
She had just confirmed her relationship with Yang Dongjie, and Yanjing gave her a house, a shop, and a car. Although these were all said to be for Yang Dongjie's entrepreneurship, she was actually enjoying these things herself.
"The whole family is wearing ancient costumes, you can't wear modern clothes alone, how can you take pictures later?" Hearing that Dong Yao meant to refuse, Zhuo Qing'er interrupted directly.
Bai Xi had mentioned making clothes for Dong Yao before, but she was too busy before and had no time to measure her size.
Now it's just right to measure the size, so that her clothes and the clothes of her family can be made together when the season changes.
"Thank you, sister Qing'er!" Dong Yao knew that it would be a bit false to refuse again, so she quickly smiled and agreed.
"That's right, we are a family and we have different opinions."
After dinner, everyone took a nap and rested, while Zhuo Qing'er was busy selecting sample patterns and asking everyone what style they liked.
Mainly asking Dong Yao, she basically knew what kind of clothes other people in the family liked after making them for so many years. She didn't know what Dong Yao liked.
As for the children, they wear whatever is designed. Aunt Zhuo is also an elder, and if you dare to pick on the clothes she makes for you, I will pull your ears off.
