Return To 1977 Chapter 784: Buffet

It is said that food is the most important thing for people, and this is also true.

Both Easterners and Westerners have to eat, and no one can live hungry.

The first goal of anyone who works hard is to fill his stomach first.

No, since having a stable income, the most obvious change that has happened to Angelo is mainly reflected in the aspect of "eating".

First I had pasta, steak, and red wine, and later I had the financial ability to buy fine cheese and prawns.

By now, his kitchen was truly transformed.

The refrigerator is not only filled with all kinds of butter, cheese, meat, sausages and seafood, but the cupboards are also stocked with sugar cubes, coffee, black tea, dried fruits and biscuits. The fruit bowl on the table changes varieties frequently.

For this reason, Angelo not only became rosy and energetic, but also became more optimistic about his future.

Especially after he successfully sold a batch of Longkou Village handicrafts at a very good price and remitted the extra money to his account in the United States.

He was even more grateful for his good luck in this mysterious country.

To be honest, he never dreamed that in China, an extremely poor and backward country. He was actually able to support himself and still have enough energy to take care of and compensate his wife and children who were far away in the United States.

So he had to be grateful to Hong Yanwu and Chen Liquan who rewarded him with his job.

Even Aiwujiwu has a certain fondness for the "little wife", a "supervisor" who is unsmiling every day and watches him work like a donkey.

But having said that, gratitude can never be equated with benefits.

It is human nature to want to go to Long and look at Shu. It is also driven by selfish desires to think twice about one thing.

Especially for a foreigner with a special background like Angelo, it is natural to never be satisfied without any moral burden.

So when this boy gradually became familiar with Chen Liquan and his "little wife", especially after he discovered that Hong Yanwu and his group of seemingly vicious masters had never done anything illegal, including killing and stealing goods.

It was difficult for him to restrain his impatience and decided that he must regain a relatively favorable condition for himself.

There is just one more thing. Since he has always lived in a life circle where interests are paramount, he also understands how sensitive it is when it comes to money requirements. It is the factor that is most likely to cause hatred. If it is not handled well, it will be counterproductive and cause trouble.

Even though he clearly knew that there was no risk of dying in a foreign land, suddenly angering his boss and losing his job was not something he wanted to do.

Then he must control the requirements to a reasonable level and be more artistic in his techniques. It is to neither make the other party feel that your offer is too high nor to make the other party feel offended.

So after thinking twice, he sent an invitation to Hong Yanwu and Chen Liquan through his "little wife", hoping that they could come together on December 25 to attend the Christmas dinner held in the Diplomatic Residence.

So that he can make his request tactfully at the dinner table.

I have to say that both the East and the West agree on this.

That is, good food and wine can make people happy and relaxed, and can be very helpful in solving some seemingly sensitive or acute problems during dining occasions.

And just because it looks less formal, it leaves room for each other.

It's just a pity that God's calculations are not as good as those of humans.

Although Hong Yanwu and Chen Liquan had already agreed to Angelo. But on this morning, because they received an unexpected call from Yang Weifan, their arrangements had to change temporarily.

So that night, the only person who went to the banquet on their behalf was the "little wife".

Even his wife "Little Cheese" was not able to accompany him because there were three younger siblings at home who needed to be taken care of.

So Angelo had no choice but to settle for the next best thing, hoping that his "little wife" would relay his opinions and put in a few nice words.

It should be said that this meal actually had a good start at the beginning.

Because this meal is in the form of a buffet, it is also called "Buffect" in the West.

Meat dishes mainly include roasted chicken, fried chicken, steak, fried fish and bacon.

Most of the vegetables are raw, such as celery, onions, mushrooms, cheese, macaroni, French fries, pizza, salad, mashed potatoes, etc.

There are also various fruits and ice creams.

In addition, we took care of many official guests of the Republic and prepared additional Chinese delicacies such as fried rice, fried noodles, and soup and porridge.

It is absolutely colorful, dazzling, a combination of Chinese and Western styles, everything you want.

Have the "little wife" ever seen such a scene?

When he first entered the dinner party at the Diplomatic Residence, his most immediate impression was "shocked".

After hearing that people can eat whatever they want, they even thought that our country had partially realized communism.

Although Angelo later told him that the meal cost was for twenty-five people and that food could not be taken out, he was a little disappointed.

But after all, I am very grateful and think this foreign guy is quite interesting. If you spend fifty yuan to treat him to a meal, there's nothing wrong with that.

But then gradually, the "little wife" felt less good.

This is because there are quite a lot of cultural differences between us and foreigners in how we live and treat others.

The "little wife" doesn't have the insight of Hong Yanwu, so this Christmas dinner is destined to be a meal where misunderstandings often occur and East and West collide.

For example, when he was holding the tray and picking up things, Angelo started to brag about his broken Chinese.

The Italian macaroni is called Goodford, the Italian pizza is also called Goodford, the roasted turkey is called Goodford, and even a few slices of pork belly and some lettuce salad are also called Goodford.

As a result, every time he introduced something, the "little wife" had to take some out of favor.

In the end, I got a large tray of things that I didn’t like very much.

Hey, but for such a "Goodford" thing, Angelo himself picked around and took a closer look and found almost nothing.

Finally, the boy saw a chef pushing fried prawns out and placing them on the dining table, so he hurried over and queued up.

Okay, I successfully brought back a large tray and sat down in front of my "little wife". He didn't even give in politely, and just started eating and chewing on his own.

But that's nothing. The most annoying thing is that in addition to wine, the two of them also brought a glass of lemonade each, which was also Angelo's suggestion.

But when the "little wife" took a sip and felt that it was not as delicious as soda, she regretted listening to Angelo's words.

He saw with his own eyes that Angelo tore off the oily fingers of the prawns and washed them in lemon water.

How can this not make people embarrassed or annoyed?

What a boy, you **** tricked me into drinking hand water. It's really yours!

The "little wife" couldn't help but glare and stopped eating. She just looked at Angelo with her eyes.

In the end, Angelo noticed it, but he had no idea what was going on. He just shrugged and smiled cutely.

Then he continued to hold the prawns and gnaw them with his hands, which were as white and red as pig's hooves.
