The president's long road to chasing his wife

Chapter 57 History of Wontons

Lu Nan took her mobile phone to navigate around the streets. During the period, she came across several good breakfast restaurants. She didn't stop there. up.

Nick had no choice but to follow her from street to street. This little woman, with a typical stubborn temper, can be described in Chinese as the kind that can't be pulled back by nine cows. Fortunately, he is witty. Had something to eat.

"Hey! Nick!" Lu Nan couldn't believe her eyes. The store in front of her was just looking for the "Su Ji Wonton" all morning. The man said, "Hey, Nick, look, we're here".

Lu Nan was very excited, and felt a sense of accomplishment that she had found a place. She raised her proud face and smiled triumphantly, "Look, let you believe that I am right, let's go in quickly Come on, starve to death!"

She walked in quickly, and Nick shrugged helplessly behind her. It took him so long to find it, and he could be proud of it, as expected of the Kelly he knew.

It’s past the peak breakfast period, and there are only a few young couples in the store, who are eating breakfast leisurely. Nick just walked into the store, and immediately attracted everyone’s attention. It’s not that unusual to see foreigners everywhere in Shanghai. It's just that Nick is really handsome, wearing a sportswear, casual and casual, but unstoppable sexy charm, this Lu Nan also has to admit.

A few girls at a table not far away made a nympho voice:

"Hey, look, look, who is that foreign man? He's so handsome."

"Yeah, do you think he is a movie star?"

"Hey, I look like it, so handsome."

……

Lu Nan rolled her eyes while listening, she propped her chin with one hand, looked at the man in front of her, and there was a hint of ridicule in her eyes, "Hey, I said Nick, why every time I come out with you, I can't avoid meeting nymphomaniacs?" Ah, it's just unbearable"

The man raised his eyebrows, "That's because I'm attractive"

"Pfft! Ha! Ha!" Lu Nan laughed twice, "With your scruffy appearance, you still have charm?"

"Sloppy?" Nick frowned, "That's because you don't appreciate it." He just prefers sportswear. Why is she calling him sloppy every time? It's not that he doesn't wear formal clothes, but those clothes are extra tight on his body Uncomfortable, he knows how to enjoy it.

At this time, the waiter had already brought their ordered breakfast, Lu Nan decided not to argue, "OK!, I don't know how to appreciate it, let's eat, the wonton here is top-notch, try it, it's definitely better than your milk bread eat".

Nick was speechless. No matter how bad my milk bread is, you haven’t eaten it for several years. He looked down at the bowl in front of him, and there were boat-like things. They were bright in color and smelled fragrant. They should taste pretty good. .

He picked up a spoon and put one into his mouth, a thick and delicious smell filled his mouth, which made his appetite go up. He ate a few more in a row, and then couldn't help but give Lu Nan a big thumbs up. Thumb, "Well... Kelly, it tastes really good".

"Of course, the place I brought you here is naturally very good." Lu Nan felt proud again, "I told you a long time ago that there are all kinds of snacks in China, this time you just stay for a few more days, and I will take you Go and eat all over."

"OK! But I can only stay for a week at most. I have a fashion week in Washington DC next week, and I have to be there." Nick's tall body leaned against the back of the chair, feeling like he was under a quilt. It's a little funny, but he doesn't care at all, he's very comfortable.

"It's only been a week?" Lu Nan curled her lips, "Forget it, I didn't have too much hope at first, you are a busy person, you only know how to make money all day long, if one day you have too much money to spend, remember to call me , I can help you out"

"Hehe", Nick was amused by her words, "OK! No problem, I will definitely find you as soon as possible."

The two were about to go out after breakfast, but Nick paused, "Kelly, please forgive me for being curious about all new things, I think I have to figure out the doubts in my heart."

Lu Nan looked at him suspiciously, "What's wrong?"

Nick shrugged at her, and then walked towards the cashier. Lu Nan was stunned for a few seconds behind him, and then followed him.

"Hi beauty, can I ask you a question?"

The cashier at the cash register is a young girl. She is sorting out the morning turnover when a sudden voice breaks into her ears. She subconsciously raises her head and sees a tall, handsome guy smiling all over her face. Staring at himself, he blushed immediately.

"Well, sir, is there anything I can do for you?" The girl looked at him nervously.

"What?" Nick didn't understand Chinese very well, so of course he didn't know what she was talking about.

The girl can't speak English, and Nick can't speak Chinese. The two of them are playing the piano against each other. Lu Nan watched silently for a while, and she patted Nick on the shoulder from behind, "Hey, just tell me if you have any questions." , let me ask for you."

It was only then that Nick remembered that there was such a big translator beside him, and he actually forgot, "I'm curious, why such a delicious thing has such a strange name."

Lu Nan has eaten wontons for so many years and has never thought about this problem. She only knows that it is delicious. It really is a genius's head, which is beyond the comprehension of a mortal like her.

The cashier listened to the conversation between the two, and was taken aback for a while. The last time a salesperson met a foreigner in the store, he couldn't understand the other person's words and was laughed at by her. How could he know that it would be his turn so soon? Well, people really can't be too gloating, but this foreigner in front of him is really handsome.

Another nympho girl, Lu Nan secretly despised her in her heart, "Hey, beauty, he asked you why wonton is called wonton".

"Ah!", I just asked her this question, she felt a little disappointed, she took a piece of paper from the cabinet under the cashier and handed it over, "Sir, miss, there is a detailed introduction of wonton on it." , as well as the detailed method of wonton ".

Lu Nan took it, glanced at it casually, and continued, "Your boss is not afraid that others will learn how to make wontons, and your family will have no business."

The cashier smiled lightly, "Miss, you are joking, our Suji wonton naturally has our own secret recipe, which cannot be learned by others."

"Oh..." Lu Nan nodded, and then handed the piece of paper to Nick.

Nick took it, looked at the dense Chinese characters on it, and looked puzzled, "What is this?"

It was only then that Lu Nan remembered that someone couldn't read Chinese. She took back the paper in Nick's hand and explained it to him word by word. It turned out that she just thought that wonton was delicious, but she didn't expect such a complicated origin.

In old Beijing, there was a saying of "Winter Solstice Wontons and Summer Solstice Noodles".According to legend, during the Han Dynasty, the Huns in the north often harassed the frontier, and the people were restless.At that time, there were two leaders of the Hun clan and the Tun clan in the Xiongnu tribe, who were very cruel.The common people hated it to the bone, so they wrapped it with meat stuffing and made it into a corner, taking the sound of "hun" and "tun", and calling it "wonton".Eat it with hatred, and seek to quell the war and live a peaceful life.Because wontons were first made on the day of the winter solstice, every family eats wontons on the day of the winter solstice...
