Chapter 139 Thanksgiving
"Go away, buy turkey!"
On Thanksgiving, the company actually did not organize an event. Mike suggested that Feng Yiping would prepare a party at home, so he was too lazy to pay for that matter! The boss had many methods and methods to win over his subordinates, so there was no need to do this.
Thanksgiving is a unique festival in the United States and Canada. Although the dates of Thanksgiving in these two countries are not consistent, it is said that in some places, it is more important than Christmas. Generally speaking, it should be equivalent to our Mid-Autumn Festival and is also a day for family reunion and celebration.
However, this festival, which has a strong religious atmosphere in terms of name, actually has nothing to do with the two of them, but, together, it has four days of holidays and can also eat turkey!
He and Jingping are both carnivorous animals.
A large cart of things came out from the supermarket. Looking at the 16-pound turkey that Huang Jingping specially picked, Feng Yiping suggested, "How about going to the restaurant on the street and asking the fat master what to do?"
Fat Master is the chef in the restaurant where Huang Jingping wanted to eat unpopular hometown dishes before, and they often went to order food and custom-made.
"It's the first time I've made it so big. I can't bake it well. Not only can I taste it, but the meat is still woody, and the taste is the same as chewy,"
"You are right. This is our first Thanksgiving dinner in the United States. We will tell our children in the future. We must do it well. Let's go!" Huang Jingping excitedly pulled him towards Chinatown.
In fact, it is not entirely for asking how to make turkey. On such a lively festival, going to Chinatown and listening to the domestic dialects from all over the world is actually a comfort.
I had to ask, and the bald chef of the fat and fat chef said that it was different from the turkey legs I usually eat in a restaurant or a burger with turkey meat. A whole turkey was cooked in line with our taste, and it really took some effort.
"The Americans are different from us, and they don't eat anything good. We think dry, firewood, poultry meat with a taste like sawdust, but they just want to have this bite. For example, they eat chicken and like chicken breasts, while we think chicken legs and chicken wings are more delicious."
Judging from their style, they didn’t seem to be opening a restaurant to grab business. The fat chef was nagging, while enthusiastically packing the homemade sauces and fillings for them in the restaurant, and specially helped to adjust the sauce. "What you want to bake is to suit our taste. The most important thing is to marinate. When you go back, marinate it with this can of sauce and put it in the refrigerator. Before baking tomorrow night, it’s enough to thaw a few hours in advance,"
"This is our secret sauce. It tastes very good. As for these fillings, they are also well-made. If you don't like it, you can make it yourself and according to your taste. Ham, onion, carrot, bread, celery, coriander, mushrooms... can be put in,"
"Thank you, I drool when I think about it." Feng Yiping said with a smile.
"When doing it, if you don't understand something, call at any time," the fat master shouted from behind.
These two young people, whether they are dressed or driven, have a certain family background. What is rare is that they do not have adults by their side. They do not have the bad tempers of other second generations, be kind, humble, and generous in their actions. Perhaps this is also more important. People in this restaurant like both of them.
On such a grand festival, there are naturally activities in the community. Some housewives organized to deliver food to those homeless people. However, this time, Feng Yiping and the others chose to refuse. On such a day, Huang Jingping was heavy, so they both hoped to stay at home lazily all day.
This day is also very interesting to stay at home. In addition to various games, such as the football game that most Americans like to watch. From early in the morning, cities in the United States hold Thanksgiving parades from the east to the central to the west.
Lying lazily on the beach chair in the backyard, basking in the sun, holding a big corn cob in both hands, watching Feng Yiping move to the porch, where the Thanksgiving parades are broadcasting everywhere.
"The cartoon images made of those balloons are so cute. Once you have a flat surface, we must take our children to the scene to see if it's good?"
"You want to see it," Feng Yiping put his hand on her raised belly and gently stroked it.
"The child wants to see it, and the child's mother wants to see it, too." These days, her ability to act coquettishly has risen to a higher level.
"Okay, next year I will fly a plane, take my child and my mother, and chase the west from the east, okay?"
"Yes, mom and dad, I'll go to customize the plane the day after tomorrow!" Huang Jingping said to her belly, which was already protruding with a tender look.
"Dad, why do I think such days seem to be unreal?"
"Why is it not true?" Feng Yiping held her hand.
"It seems that I am not very happy," Huang Jingping put his hand on her face.
"It is my responsibility to let you live a happy life,"
It seems that when pregnant, women will always be sentimental.
"Okay, go to the hot pool and let's take a nap." Although the temperature is still good now, it is naturally not as hot as summer, so Feng Yiping renovated the house for the first time and built a new hot pool beside the swimming pool.
"The boy's father carried me over," Huang Jingping smiled and stretched out her hands at him.
…………
Huang Jingping held a knife and a fork, and looked like a greedy child, watching Feng Yiping go to get a turkey, "Be careful that it pecks you,"
"It's okay, I'm wearing jeans,"
On Thanksgiving, the White House also has a tradition that the president will pardon a turkey on the South Lawn on the day before Thanksgiving.
President Bush, who was not living a smooth life, performed this duty for the first time yesterday and pardoned a turkey called "Freedom".
I don’t know whether “freedom” is not selling the bill or is too free. After being pardoned, I immediately pecked at the president or the key points of the three routes. The scene was in an uproar, and the president was so embarrassed!
This is probably the first president in the United States to be publicly held.
He roasted the oil and put the turkey with bright and golden color in the center of the dining table, "It smells so good, hurry up, start!" Huang Jingping couldn't wait.
Feng Yiping picked up a knife and cut a large piece for her, "Why do I feel that it always seems to be something short of it?"
"Our level is really good. We will definitely tell the child like this in the future," Huang Jingping counted all the credits on her. "I think it seems to be more delicious than the roast duck in the capital, because the taste is richer. You can eat it."
It's really good, similar to roast duck, it's not dry and has a rich taste.
Can it be not rich? It is filled with so many ingredients to bake.
"By the way, what did you say just now?" Huang Jingping was now thinking about Feng Yiping's question just now.
"It seems like a time like this is a matter of setting off firecrackers," Feng Yiping said seriously.
"Hate, don't make me laugh when you eat,"
"No, I not only want to make you happy, but also make you happy!"
"If you really think so, then we will go shopping tomorrow?" Huang Jingping said.
"No," Feng Yiping rejected her request.
The arrival of Thanksgiving means that the shopping season at the end of the United States is coming.
The first day after Thanksgiving, Friday, which is what everyone knows about, "Black Friday." Although this is the same as the later Singles' Day, to a certain extent, it is also a means for merchants to clear their inventory, within three or four days after that, major shopping malls and specialty stores will launch many amazing discounts.
So in the following days, disputes, fights, and even bloody incidents in major shopping malls have long been common. How dare Huang Jingping, who is so big that she dares to participate?
"What do you want to buy? Let's talk about it in the next few days."
"I don't want to buy anything, but I just want to feel that atmosphere,"
Feng Yiping was surprised, OK, this is probably the nature of a woman.
"I can't attend such a grand event, I'm really unhappy!"
Progress is so fast that I actually learned to threaten it.
"Then let's make a compromise, go to the mall entrance to watch the fun, emphasize it, only watch the fun, and not participate!"
Feng Yiping had to give in again.
There is no way. Many times, women are unreasonable creatures, let alone pregnant women?
"You are so nice!" Huang Jingping was in the upper hand again, and happily wanted to kiss Feng Yiping.
"No, the oil on your mouth!"
