Chapter 1484: Be Good Friends 1
Chinese people have always been hospitable, and facing a foreign friend like Christine, the Lu Family meticulously prepared breakfast.
However, given the current limited conditions, it wasn’t possible to add ’delicacy’ to the abundance.
Feng Qingxue had asked Christine about her dietary preferences and taboos the day before, so the dining table at home featured Eight-Treasure Porridge, scallion pancakes, boiled eggs, two types of meat and vegetarian buns, as well as four dishes: scrambled eggs with garlic shoots, spicy and sour shredded potatoes, stir-fried cabbage with vinegar, and fried wood ear mushrooms with onions, offering a breakfast much more sumptuous than what most other households, including many old leaders, would have.
Christine liked onions, so the meat buns were specially made with pork and onion filling.
"No no no, Feng, I think this scallion pancake is my favorite!" Christine held up the scallion pancake in her hand, her mouth shiny with oil, savoring the crispy texture and the intermingling fragrances of wheat, scallion, and oil – it was so delicious that she snubbed the onions, even though she had always been fond of them.
"My Brother Tianzhi made them," Xibao said proudly; he also liked scallion pancakes, as well as chive pockets and dumplings.
Christine looked towards Lu Tianzhi with admiration, "You’re amazing!"
Christine was too enthusiastic, making Lu Tianzhi feel somewhat uneasy, "If you like them, eat more, eat more."
"Thank you! They are delicious, I’ll keep eating!" Christine took a big bite without caring much about her appearance.
She loved photography and outdoor activities, often traveling far and wide, using up a lot of energy, which meant she ate a lot of food, naturally leading to a big appetite. Moreover, there was no planned economy in France, her family lived comfortably without the need to scrape by, and since coming to China, her status as a foreign guest allowed her to buy things as she desired without understanding the pain of material shortages, so she had the appetite of two people when eating.
