There were a bunch of bottles and cans in the kitchen, and the fridge was filled with all kinds of ingredients. Judging from the packaging, most of them were produced in Xinglong Food Processing Plant. Ayesha recognized the brand. It was a food processing plant 100% owned by Celestial Trade. It was directly connected to Xin Ocean Agriculture's submarine farm. Most of the processed food was transported to Coconut Island in the name of military supplies.
"This is?"
Ayesha picked up a jar she had never seen before and shook it curiously.
The jar was filled with crystal clear waxy yellow crystals that looked like honey, but also a bit like jelly.
"Ah, that's the crab sauce for Mud Crabs. It was shipped from North America."
North America?
It should be North America in this world.
Ayesha nodded, curiously unscrewed the jar, and sniffed it.
It smells so good!
Ayesha closed the lid and placed the jar on the shelf.
"Right, are you Yao Yao?"
"Mhmm, are you Ayesha?"
"Mhmm … are you going to make curry today?"
"Let's eat hot pot. It's more lively."
"Then, then I'll go cut the meat."
Yao Yao hurried to the refrigerator, and her small hand that opened the refrigerator door trembled slightly because of nervousness. Ayesha skillfully took out the kitchen knife and cut the washed carrots into thin slices. For a while, except for the rhythmic sound of cutting vegetables, no one spoke.
The conversation seemed to have been interrupted, and the atmosphere was a bit awkward.
At this time, the kitchen door was suddenly opened, and Lin Lin slipped into the kitchen.
"Lin Lin? Why are you here? " Yao Yao's eyes widened, and she glanced at Lin Lin in surprise. Because Lin Lin rarely sneaked into the kitchen to steal food when she just started cooking. She often came over when she was carrying the plates.
"The aura in the living room is too powerful!"
"Can digitalized humans feel the aura?" Halfway through her sentence, Yao Yao probably recalled the feeling in the living room at that time, so she added in a low voice. "Well … although I feel the same way."
Ayesha's mouth curved up. She put the sliced carrots into a plastic bowl and tore open the packaging. She looked at the dilapidated skyscrapers outside the window and asked nonchalantly, "Is this Wanghai?"
"That's right … Although it's Wanghai more than a century later." Looking out the window, Yao Yao's voice was filled with emotion.
Like Lin Lin, she came from the era before the war and had witnessed how prosperous the city was and how great the Pan-Asia Cooperation was.
"Do you like him?"
"Eh?" Yao Yao looked at Ayesha blankly, not understanding why she suddenly asked this question.
Ayesha blinked, her eyes looking at her with sincerity.
"Of course …" Yao Yao nervously lowered her head and finally plucked up her courage. She smiled weakly and said, "No, to be precise … it's love."
She had never been a courageous girl. Otherwise, she wouldn't have hesitated until now.
"Okay, I got it."
That's it?
Question marks floated above Yaoyao's head. She tilted her head and looked at Ayesha in confusion.
After that, the three of them never talked about this issue again.
…
"Cheers!"
"Cheers ~!"
The sound of glasses clinking announced the beginning of the lunch.
The fiery red oil was bubbling with pink bubbles. With the addition of ingredients, the table began to be filled with the intoxicating aroma of meat. In addition to the large pot of hot pot in the middle of the table, Yao Yao and Ayesha also made a few of their best dishes. Lin Lin, who was waiting on the side with chopsticks, gulped as she eagerly waited for the opportunity to feast.
Natasha took out Jiang Chen's treasured vodka and looked at Sun Jiao with sparks of challenge in her eyes.
Only Xia Shiyu and Sun Xiaorou's table manners were considered elegant.
As for Jiang Chen, his attention was not on the food from the beginning. He had been secretly observing the expressions on Xia Shiyu and Sun Jiao's faces. In his expectation, the meeting between the two would be the "minefield" he was most worried about because the two's personalities were completely opposite, and even their values were quite different.
But what surprised him was that the feeling the two gave him … was not bad?
The family finished their lunch in a lively manner.
Just as Jiang Chen gently coughed and was about to announce the start of the "family meeting", Xia Shiyu and Sun Jiao looked at each other and stood up at the same time.
"We have something to discuss, please go out for a while," Sun Jiao said with a smirk.
"Mhmm, that's right." Xia Shiyu pushed up her glasses and agreed.
"Eh? Can I go over there? "Jiang Chen asked in a quiet voice.
"No." Sun Jiao stared at Jiang Chen with a blushing face and said firmly, "Who knows if you will sneak back."
"I agree with sister's point of view. As the only male member of the family, it's better to avoid the girls' meeting." Sun Xiaorou also stood up and smiled. "So, brother-in-law, please go out for a while."
Jiang Chen looked at Ayesha for help, but he didn't expect even Ayesha to "betray" him. He subtly looked away and pretended he didn't see anything.
Being excluded from the family meeting made Jiang Chen very hurt.
With no choice, he walked out of the mansion. With nothing to do, he wandered in the direction of the General Mansion.
On the way to the Marshal's Mansion, he happened to bump into Han Junhua who was walking in the direction of the Marshal's Mansion, so he went up to greet her.
"Hey."
Han Junhua turned around and looked at Jiang Chen with surprise.
"Your expression tells me that you seem surprised to see me here," Jiang Chen said helplessly.
Okay, Jiang Chen admitted that he hadn't been to the General Mansion for a long time …
[But you can't look at me like that.]
"Mhmm, I'm a bit surprised." Han Junhua nodded expressionlessly and handed the document to Jiang Chen. "Perfect, you're here. This document was supposed to be given to Mrs. Sun, so it's the same to give it to you now."
Jiang Chen took the document and flipped through two pages. An interested expression appeared on his face.
"This is …"
"The United Arab Emirates sent an envoy to us and brought a gift. They hope to develop diplomatic relations with us … We have very little information about them. We only know that they may be the only continent that survived the nuclear war other than the North and South Poles. "
"Why?"
"Because he brought a box of corn."
"…"
Jiang Chen gave the document back to Han Junhua, coughed, and said.
"In short, put this document on my table first, then let the envoy wait for me at the Sixth Street. I … have more important problems to solve. "
"Is there anything more important than this?" Han Junhua asked.
"Mhmm." Jiang Chen sighed. "And it's more difficult."
