Chapter 601 587.BabyShower (35)
Eva's preparations were very formal. She tied her blonde hair into a bun and asked expectantly, "Okay, where do we start?"
Wang Bo leaned in front of the refrigerator and said: "Let me introduce to you first, there are simple recipes and difficult recipes for loach tofu soup. For example, in the difficult recipe, first put the small loach in a clear water basin with egg white liquid, let it Survive in it overnight, drain and wash."
"Then, pour the cold pork rib soup into the casserole, put the loach into it and start to stew. You need to use a low fire. As the temperature rises, the loach can't stand it and will swim around."
"At this time, put a whole piece of tender tofu into the casserole, because the tofu is cold, and the loach will be forced into the tofu by the heat to hide. At the end, the soup boils, and the loach and tofu are cooked. It is cooked with a variety of condiments."
Eva was dumbfounded: "God, this is too cruel, no, we can't do this."
Wang Bo chuckled and said, "Of course, I'm just giving an example. I can't do it like this. What we have to do is very simple. Look, I've already dealt with them. Let's cook simple ones."
In order to take care of Eva, this dish is really simple. After frying the loach, put it in a pot and add seasoning and tofu to stew. However, Eva is naturally slow in cooking, and she didn’t find a measuring cup when she put the vinegar. Then just drop it...
"It's so sour, my teeth are soft." Little Loli shouted after taking a sip.
Bo's mother scooped up a bowl, tasted it, and said, "It's a little sour, but it's just right. It's appetizing. Come on, Xiaobo, Mom will scoop you a bowl. Don't use the small bowl. Bring your big bowl."
Dad Bo also shared a big bowl, he drank it down, and praised: "That's right, it's appetizing, and this soup is really fresh, the baby stewed out the umami taste of the soup, it's not bad."
Eva lowered her head, concentrating on her bowl of soup.
However, the braised beer loach section made by Wang Bo is still delicious. The loach is big and fat, and the meat is very tender. It seems to crumble in the mouth without chewing.
Bo's mother and Bo's father were also amazed, saying that New Zealand's loach tastes so fresh and the fish is so thin, it is comparable to the eel at home.
Lying on the bed at night, Eva teased Big Fat and Er Pang, and said sadly: "Why is cooking so difficult? I think I may never learn it."
Wang Bo laughed, hugged her and said, "If you can't learn it, then let me do it. Your man dare not say anything else, but his cooking skills are very good, so in the future, you and your children can wait for me to cook." gone."
Not going to work for two consecutive days is equivalent to a small weekend, and the next day he went to work, Bowen said lazily: "Boss, you are too carefree these days, my God, you have not gone to work for two days .”
Wang Bo patted him on the shoulder and said, "Good job young man, do you remember our bet? You lost to me for a long period of vacation, the boss is generous, the past two days should count as the bet vacation. "
He went back to the office and sat down. Elizabeth knocked on the door and walked in. As soon as he saw the female secretary, he knew something was up.
Sure enough, Elizabeth shrugged and said, "Boss, someone invited you to a party. It's Mr. Huta Sack, the mayor of Aocheng. He is going to hold a Baby Shower and invites you to participate. Are you interested?"
The so-called BabyShower is a special party celebration in New Zealand. The name translates to baby show or baby party, but it is not held for babies, but for expectant mothers who are pregnant and their children are about to be born.
This ceremony is mainly to give relatives and friends an opportunity to give gifts to the "mother-to-be" and her family, so that the family that is about to add children will have more joy, less tension, and closer relationships between friends.
Wang Bo is no stranger to this. He has never participated in New Zealand's BabyShower, but he has participated in many colleagues' children's full moon wine when he was in China. However, Chinese people only hold celebrations after their children's full moon, while New Zealanders hold a celebration ceremony after their children's full moon. Have fun with everyone before the baby is born.
Hearing Elizabeth's words, he shrugged helplessly and said, "If you say I'm not interested, can I not participate? When is the time?"
"this weekend."
Wang Bodao: "The time is tight enough, what kind of gifts do you usually prepare?"
Babyshower is a rare gift-giving gathering in New Zealand. The real meaning of the name of this party is "bath in the gifts from friends". Therefore, the more relatives and friends come to the party, the better, and the more gifts the better.
Elizabeth introduced: "It's just some small gifts, no expensive gifts are needed. I think the most appropriate gifts are for babies, such as diapers, small blankets, feeding bottles and baby toys."
Wang Bo thought for a while and said, "Okay, contact Anderson and ask him to prepare a gift for me. I think he should be very good at this."
When eating with Eva at noon, he mentioned the mayor's invitation and asked her if she had any gift suggestions.
He had to attend this party. The conflict between him and Lengsi during the Chinese New Year made him understand that connections are the most important resource anywhere, so he could take this opportunity to get acquainted with the official circle in Aocheng.
And this party is very important. In the most traditional New Zealand culture, BabyShower is only prepared for the first child of the family, and this party only invites female friends.
The original intention of the gathering was to allow women who are about to become mothers to share wisdom and lessons with other female friends, so as to be a qualified mother in the future.
However, with the passage of time and the development of society, now Babyshower has become a very common form of gathering, whether it is about to give birth to a child or to adopt a child, or whether it is the first child of the family, All babyshowers can be held, and male friends, friends, and colleagues can all be invited.
But Mr. Mayor is a fairly traditional gentleman. The BabyShower he held this time is for his first grandson, and the men he invites are all prominent figures in the area.
Eva was quite looking forward to this party, she put her hands on her chin and said longingly: "Then we have to prepare a unique gift, what do you think of the baby meal cake?"
"Give him a cake?" Wang Bo questioned, "Is this an ingenious suggestion?"
Eva covered her mouth and smiled when she heard what he said, and she explained: "No, this is not a cake for eating, but diapers and other supplies that the baby may use, carefully stacked and arranged into a cake. Let me handle the appearance of the layered cake, and I will handle it well. By the way, is the child a boy or a girl? We also need to prepare some clothes."
