After traveling through time, I relied on rich people’s gossip to reach the top of my life.
Chapter 108 A new look in the new year
After meeting Su Yuan, Li Xi temporarily put aside the guilt of neglecting his partner for a long time and began to enjoy his winter vacation. Every day he would either take Jing Chu out for fun or lie down on the sofa with the TV on.
Occasionally, Su Yuan would invite her to participate in some brand activities, saying that he could introduce celebrities to her, but Li Xi always refused. Before time travel, Li Xi was also a star chaser. She was so eager to chase stars that she wished she could have the words "xx diehard fan" engraved on her face. However, before the collapse of the house came, idol said that I was tired and wanted to quit.
Since then, Li Xi has stopped chasing stars, and has no desire to get to know a certain star in depth, and only occasionally licks his face.
After she came here, she no longer thought about it. The people around her were all very good-looking. After all, most of them were key figures in the original novel, such as male and female protagonists, male supporting actors, female supporting characters, and villains. She also has the title of "beautiful waste".
Secondly, she may be "old" and has no energy to chase stars. Every time I watch TV, the focus is on the "plot" and little on the people.
Intentionally or unintentionally, she ignored that none of the celebrities were familiar to her. It was the celebrity that Su Yuan had revealed to her last time in the gossip talks of a wealthy family. If she changed the photo and style, she wouldn't recognize him anymore.
After rejecting Su Yuan's invitation, Su Yu was taken to study by the teacher again. Luo Jingxuan and Jing Mo were very busy at the end of the year, not to mention, so it would be nice to come back and have a meal together, ask her out to play or something like that. ,Totally impossible.
Therefore, during this period, Li Xi took it for granted.
It wasn't until Su Yu conveyed the thoughts of netizens to her that she remembered that she had been waiting for updates on the wealthy gossips for a long time.
Li Xi: "..." Holidays make people corrupt.
When choosing the topic, Li Xi had actually thought about it early on. It was the ups and downs of Zhang Dezong, or to put it more bluntly, it was the story of a Phoenix man fishing for a "golden turtle wife".
In Li Xi's view, whether it is Zhang Dezong's "history of making a fortune" by relying on women to rise to power, or Lin Yuanyuan's strategy of "killing relatives for justice", it is worthy of netizens' time to gossip. It’s just that I’ve been too comfortable lying flat these past two days and I don’t want to write at all.
Now that he was reminded, Li Xi had to pick up his stuff and start working. Of course, before working, he carefully studied the information sent by Xia Mian Laosi, thinking about which ones could be included in the article.
While Li Xi was immersed in typing, Jing Chu returned to the state of playing alone during Li Xi's exam period. Li Xi occasionally felt guilty when she saw him playing alone when she took a break.
At this time, the kindergarten where Jingchu went to school had already started. After all, his previous country did not have a festival like the Spring Festival. There is only Chinese New Year, so the winter vacation is also around January 1st. When we celebrate the Spring Festival in China, the winter vacation there has already ended and school has started.
Just because of Li Xi's suggestion, Jing Mo brought Jing Chu to China and kept someone to prepare for him to celebrate the New Year in China. There are no suitable children in Yuyuan who can play with Jingchu, and the adults are also busy with their own things. Children at Jingchu can only play by themselves most of the time.
In fact, during the time when Li Xi was taking the exam, he also thought about whether to send his child to the Jing family. After thinking about it, I gave up. Firstly, there were only a few old people at the Jing family's old house, and it was too difficult to take care of a child. Secondly, Jingchu himself didn't want to go there. Not long after Jingchu returned to China, Jing Mo took the child back to Jing's house once. Li Xi didn't follow him and didn't know what happened. He only knew that the child clamored to go back to the Royal Garden that day and never went there again. .
Li Xi guessed that the relatives of the Jing family might have said something to the child. Also, they were dissatisfied with the fact that Jing Mo inherited the Jing family as an official. Jing Chu was an adopted son and would probably take over the Jing family from Jing Mo in the future. In their view, it means that the family property has been given to outsiders, which is a puncture in the lungs. Jing Mo and the others can't deal with him, but they can't do anything about Jing Chu, a little brat? Just a few ambiguous words can sow a haze in a child's heart.
However, Li Xi has nothing to do with the Jing family's affairs. Those who bully Jing Chu are left to Jing Mo to deal with. All she can do is accept the child, welcome the child, and stay with the child when she has time. Although playing with children is a physical job, she is still willing to make her children happy within her "ability".
That is, her time and the time she is willing to play with her children are actually not very much. This makes it difficult for the child to play alone.
Li Xi sighed, but was not prepared to do anything. Firstly, she has not finished writing the manuscript, and secondly, her patience with children is really limited.
These days, she is no longer as cautious as she was when she first faced Jingchu. She treats Jingchu more as an independent person and a friend who is equal to her. Rather than relying on adults to survive as children. When getting along, you have to consider your own emotions more. Although this was very un-adult, Li Xi didn't think there was anything wrong with it. Today’s children are maturing precociously. If you treat them like a child, they might not be happy with it!
So after a brief period of guilt, she devoted herself to coding again.
Finally, under the supervision of Su Yu and the eager expectations of thousands of netizens, the wealthy gossip talk has finally resumed updating again. It is still a long and thick gossip article with rich pictures and text, titled "Attack of the Pretty Boy".
Li Xi didn't actually intend to use such, emm, unfriendly adjectives to refer to Zhang Dezong at first. Just when I was re-reading the information, I noticed a problem. Many of Zhang Dezong's multiple marriages involved children.
Although except for the eldest son, all of them are legitimate. But these children are all from single-parent families. Even if their families are well off, some of their mothers later found someone else to marry. The father's love that these children lack can never be made up for. Therefore, there are many people with mental illness.
Lin Yuanyuan is the best example. Being able to be selected by Zhang Dezong to get married right after graduation, Ms. Lin's family background is very good. Raising a little girl Lin Yuanyuan is completely wealthy, and she has good food, clothing, housing and transportation. Father Lin loves Ms. Lin, and naturally he also loves this granddaughter who was born without a father. If you have money and the love of your elders, it stands to reason that you can grow up healthily.
But because of Zhang Dezong's sexual manipulation, Ms. Lin was deeply injured, which affected her daughter's mental state. Just think about it, ordinary people can't do such a thing as using tricks to make their father lose both his life and wealth, and turn from the son-in-law of a rich family into a canary.
Li Xi really didn't like this kind of person. He originally relied on women's talent to make a good living, but he didn't cherish it and did all kinds of things outside. It's even more disgusting than Phoenix Man, so Li Xi also brought some personal emotions when writing the manuscript. Even the title uses insulting words like "little pretty face".
She became emotional, and the netizens who watched the gossip were also affected to some extent. Before I even started reading the article, the comments started making noise.
【? ? ? Pretty boy? I come to Kangkang. 】
[Catch a Gu Gu Tan, harming others will be easy to wait for. (¬︿¬☆)】
[Talk about this: Is this another case of justice? I still remember the fear caused by being confused by "anti-domestic violence" (*Φ PanΦ*)】
[Let me know, there is another unlucky guy who has been targeted by Tantan. 】
[So is it another emotional entanglement? This kind of melon is not very fragrant. 】
According to Li Xi's experience, the comments made before reading the article are relatively mild and do not discuss events or characters too much. Li Xi didn't bother to pay attention. After posting the article, he turned off the computer, threw away the phone, and went downstairs to play with Aunt Lin and Jingchu.
The Chinese New Year will be here in a few days, and Uncle Wu and Aunt Lin started preparing the things they need for the Chinese New Year a few days ago, including food and drinks. They are the "old people" of Yuyuan, and they are used to purchasing. It's just that Luo Jingxuan didn't care about the layout and atmosphere of the villa in the past. He also spent New Year's Eve at his old home. Uncle Wu and Aunt Lin can just follow the usual arrangements.
But this year, not only are there Li Xi, but also Jing Chu and Jing Mo, although Jing Mo and Jing Chu should also go back to their old home on New Year's Eve. But before and after, they will always live in Yuyuan. What they eat and the atmosphere of the villa must also be based on their preferences.
Of course, Luo Jingxuan and Jing Mo were busy people and couldn't take care of this, so only Li Xi and Jing Chu, especially Li Xi, had opinions.
When Li Xi was writing the manuscript, Aunt Lin didn't want to disturb her, so she only mentioned it to her, and then she and Uncle Wu purchased some things that could not go wrong, such as dried fruits, dry goods, red envelopes, Spring Festival couplets, firecrackers, fireworks, etc. (Jiangcheng does not completely ban the setting off of fireworks and firecrackers, but divides them into regional prohibitions or restrictions. Although the area where the Imperial Garden is located has restrictions on time and types, they can indeed be set off). After Li Xi finished writing the manuscript, he naturally joined the purchasing process.
As the saying goes, new year brings new atmosphere, and Li Xi's joining has given Aunt Lin and the others a lot of new ideas.
During the previous Chinese New Year, because Aunt Lin, Uncle Wu, and the others had to go back to their hometown to celebrate the New Year, and the host Luo Jingxuan was not very welcoming, the decoration was very standard, with only Spring Festival couplets and lanterns and other Spring Festival essentials. As for food, because Luo Jingxuan was not in the imperial garden to entertain guests, there were very few preparations.
This year, that’s not all. First of all, Li Xi felt that just two large lanterns hanging at the door were too monotonous. The yard was so beautiful and big, so it had to be decorated. Use some tree lanterns, hanging tree lanterns, and small lanterns to make the whole yard bright.
Furthermore, the interior should also be decorated, with spring couplets on every door and pictures with the character "Fu" hanging on them. The tablecloths on the dining table, coffee table, and sofa covers should also be replaced with red ones, which is festive. In addition, the decorations in the living room should also be changed, including persimmon decorations, New Year flower decorations, New Year tree lanterns, floor mats with next year's zodiac patterns, hanging paintings, etc. By the way, potted flowers such as phalaenopsis, tulips, narcissus, and cyclamen are also indispensable.
For food, you need to prepare more and have more varieties. The fresher the vegetables and fresh meats, the better. There is no need to rush to buy them. You can buy them when you want to eat them, or the day before the New Year. Others, such as bacon and sausages, can be made in advance.
Li Xi was not sure whether Aunt Lin could do it before. When she was locked up at home and lying on salted fish, she forgot to do it. It was only after the Chinese New Year that she realized that there was no such thing at home. There are ready-made ones available in the supermarket, but Li Xi wasn't sure if she could get used to it, so she temporarily decided to make it herself.
Making traditional bacon and sausages takes ten days and a half, even if the weather is good. There are only a few days before the Chinese New Year, so the only way to make them is in the oven.
Before traveling through time, Li Xi had seen his family making bacon sausages, something he had never done before. Aunt Lin used to know how to do it, but after not doing it for many years, her hands were a little raw. After much thought, Li Xi decided to make two preparations - Aunt Lin would make one portion, and she would search for tutorials online and make another portion. Anyway, we were not short of money.
Aunt Lin was doing it based on her own experience, and Li Xi didn't interfere. After watching many teaching videos on the Internet, she chose the most satisfactory one. Then comes production.
Whether it was bacon or sausage, Li Xi decided to use pork belly. The meat was the first day, so Aunt Lin went to the vegetable market to order it with the boss.
For the portion of bacon, Li Xi first washed and sterilized it with high-strength white wine, and then cut it into 3 cm long strips for later use. Then prepare the marinade - onions, ginger, garlic, light soy sauce, cooking wine, sugar, salt and dark soy sauce, mix them according to the weight of the pork belly, and mash them. Then pour it into the container containing the pork, stir and knead, so that the pork strips are fully coated with the marinade and flavored.
Then cover it with plastic wrap and put it in the refrigerator to marinate for 24 hours. Then take it out to absorb the moisture, put it in the oven, and bake it with hot air at 65 degrees for 30 hours.
As for the sausage, it's a little trickier. Peel and wash the pork belly, drain the water and cut into thin slices for later use. The next step is to soak the casings, rinse them with water and dry them. While soaking in water, prepare the seasonings - salt, peppercorns, dried chili peppers, five-spice powder, and rock sugar. Crush them separately and pour them into the meat at once.
What needs to be noted here is that all the ingredients must not be wetted with water. The Sichuan peppercorns and dried chili peppers are fried until fragrant before being crushed. Of course, no oil is added.
After adding the seasoning, add some high-strength liquor to sterilize and lubricate at the same time. After mixing well, it is "enema". After deciding to make sausages by herself, Li Xi asked Yu Sui to run errands to buy a cooking machine that can make sausages. Although it remains to be verified whether it will be used in the future, Li Xi still bought it. After all, we are not short of money (wasteful behavior, Not recommended for learning).
Li Xi's first enema always failed. Either the intestines were broken or the meat was loose and uncomfortable. Later, it was Aunt Lin who came over to help and give guidance, and Li Xi succeeded. After filling the sausage, poke it with a needle to release the air, so that the sausage is full and less likely to spoil. After exhausting the air, tie it up in sections with rope and put it in the oven to dry.
Sausage is different from bacon in that it is separated by a layer of intestines, so the oven temperature is lower and the time is longer. But forty or fifty hours is about the same.
It took Li Xi a lot of energy and time to make sausages and bacon, and he didn't pay much attention to the follow-up development of the "Little Pretty Face" article. He only read the comments before going to bed that day. Sure enough, it was very lively.
[Here, what kind of pretty boy is this? He gets married every time to a rich woman, wow (○д)]
[Should I call him a scumbag, or a master of time management, awesome]
[An alternative version of Phoenix Man? Flying on more than n branches? And then you don’t cherish it and go out to have sex? What's wrong with this world, who am I, where am I? 】
[Is this just eating soft food and eating it secretly? Shocked my whole family. By the way, this man is so charming that so many rich girls fall under his pomegranate pants. If he started teaching classes, the number of people signing up would probably be crazy. 】
[I’m afraid the people upstairs also want to eat soft rice. But u1s1, if he starts a class, his money and status will definitely be higher than what he is now as a substitute canary. I just don’t know if it can be opened. After all, the ex-wives are not vegetarians. 】
[You are all shocked that the old man is so good at flirting. Am I the only one who laments that this daughter is too awesome? You actually pulled down such a "good" dad and asked him to transform from a wealthy son-in-law into a canary? 】
[Finally someone mentioned my daughter! This little girl is so awesome. She interfered with her father's marriage, career, illegitimate children, and even instigated her father's lover to rebel. If she focuses on business competition, her opponents will not dare to sleep at night. 】
[The little girl is so awesome, but with such intelligence, wouldn’t it be nice to do something that contributes to the motherland and mankind? Why spend your energy on a scumbag? It's not worth it. 】
[There are too many slots but no mouth. This world is so magical. Such a father and such a daughter...it's still the fault of my lack of knowledge. 】
[It’s not like a rich family has too much right and wrong, it’s just a scumbag who has too much shit, ( ̄▽ ̄)”]
Since the account has been in operation, Li Xi and Su Yu have become accustomed to the attitudes of netizens. They are disgusted, complained, cursed, and shocked. For Li Xi, the Zhang Dezong incident was just a piece of cake. She was not prepared to do any in-depth analysis, nor was she interested in continuing to pay attention to these people.
Therefore, she just has to read the comments from netizens and that’s it, it’s not important. If you have that time, you might as well get more beauty sleep.
On New Year's Eve, if nothing unexpected happens, she will have to go back to the Luo family's old house with Luo Jingxuan, which means she will have to deal with Luo Jingxuan's family members who have ill intentions. Thinking about it makes her feel tired.
However, it’s the New Year, and as a new daughter-in-law, she has to receive some red envelopes no matter what.
He took people's money and still made them speechless. Haha, I feel very happy just thinking about it.
(●''●)
I'm Gu Guxi, haha.
At least two chapters tomorrow (the flag feeling is so strong, 嘤嘤嘤)
