Or search on Baidu: Sanlian Literature Network] Adriana's injury was originally caused by Fan Wuxi, so when Fan Wuxian used the same source true qi for her to recuperate, the turbulent true qi was immediately guided to the right track, and the qi and blood movement of the whole body also returned to normal, and after ten minutes, Adriana turned over and sat up, just like an ordinary person.
However, Adriana's reaction was very intense, and she raised a hand naked and fanned Fan Wuxian.
Fan Wuxian grabbed Adriana's arm, and then said to Giselle,
"It's not good, it's not polite. There should be a little reverence for your unknown territory. Giselle looked at Fan Wuxian's gaze at this time, and he was indeed a little in awe, so he used a piece of clothing to cover his sister Adriana's body, and then said,
"Alright, sister. This gentleman saved you, and he promised not to pursue our entry into his hotel room. ”
"Isn't that why we should still invite him to dinner as a token of gratitude?" Adriana asked a little harshly, her eyes looking at Fan Wuxi were very unfriendly, after all, she was the one who Fan Wuxi slapped with a palm, and if she was asked to say anything grateful at this time, wouldn't it be cheap?
Despite this, Giselle still asked the servants in the house to prepare lunch and invite Fan Wuxian to eat together. 5.2.0 The first release of their restaurant is very good, it seems that it has a history of more than 100 years, the crystal chandelier is not made of glass, but a real crystal chandelier, as for the table is not an ordinary material, but a whole piece of beech wood, as for those bright silver tableware and a variety of delicate patterns and patterns of porcelain, they are all family heirloom treasures.
When Fan Wuxian picked up a blue and white porcelain and studied it with interest, Adriana carefully reminded,
"That porcelain bowl was obtained from your Manchu Imperial Palace, and it is worth at least ten thousand pounds."
"Burn down the Old Summer Palace. Or the Eight-Nation Alliance? Fan Wuxian thought to himself that if this kind of thing flowed out of the palace, it must be the time when the British and French forces burned the Old Summer Palace or the Eight-Nation Alliance entered Beijing, this thing is considered a thief!
They just took it for themselves and put it on the table for a feast.
"No, our ancestors were real nobles. This thing was purchased from your last emperor. There are many more things of the same kind. Giselle replied.
"Your family is a nobleman?" Fan Wuxi asked with some curiosity. Although he knew that ordinary people might not have such a large piece of land and house as their ancestral property, it was difficult for Fan Wuxian to associate the two female thieves with the word noble.
\\\\\ who knew that Adriana raised her face and looked at Fan Wuxian with a condescending attitude,
"To this day, my sister and I still hold the title of hereditary count."
"Really?" Fan Wuxian turned his head and asked Giselle. Giselle nodded.
"Really." Fan Wuxi patted the arm of the chair he was sitting on, and said in his heart that today is really interesting, the two female thieves are actually counts, it seems that if they encounter a robber in Paris in the future.
Maybe it's a duke, it's hard to understand. The French way of thinking really makes it clear that, in the case of these things in Giselle's house, they can be sold for two at any time in exchange for a large amount of money, so that they can live a very rich life, without having to live in embarrassment and risk of dishonor.
It's really a beautiful woman who can't help but be a thief. But think about it. Fan Wuxian can also understand them a little, just like Laura in Tomb Raider.
Isn't there also the title of Countess? It seems that Westerners have a completely different understanding of the word aristocracy than Easterners, and they cannot be equated with each other.
This is the result of different national conditions and cultural differences. The first novel 520 French people are more particular about eating, so the preparation time for this meal is not short, and when it was time to serve the dishes, Fan Wuxian found that the cooks of Giselle and her family were full of pride.
Although French cuisine is the first in Western cuisine, and the French have always been famous for being good at eating and being good at eating, but in Fan Wuji's personal vision, this is just a big gathering of life, and there is really no food art to speak of.
French cuisine is characterized by a wide selection of ingredients, such as what Chinese do not eat much snails, foie gras and other things are delicious in their French cuisine, as for the characteristics of fine processing, exquisite cooking, strong and light taste, and many varieties of colors, it is nothing more than simple cooking compared to the British.
Fan Wuxian can say very responsibly that the process and technical content of making a home-cooked braised pork by himself are much more difficult than the so-called French meal.
Of course, although Fan Wuxian felt a little disdainful of French dinner, the two sisters of the earl had the heart to invite themselves to dinner, and they made such a solemn arrangement, Fan Wuxian was embarrassed to refuse, otherwise, it would make them feel unkind.
For the two sisters of the earl, Fan Wuxian feels that it is useful, after all, beauties should have the right way to use them, not to mention that the two sisters Giselle and Adriana are not only the legendary twin beauties, but also have the title of countess, which is very rare.
After \\\\\ wine and food came up, the two sisters still dutifully introduced their family's traditional dishes to Fan Wuxi, as well as the wine that had been cellared for many years, and even the complicated knives, forks and tableware.
French cuisine is also more particular about eating half-cooked or raw food, such as steak and lamb leg are characterized by half-cooked and fresh tenderness, seafood oysters can also be eaten raw, and roasted wild duck is generally six ripe and can be eaten.
Their chefs pay more attention to seasoning, there are many types of condiments, and they also use wine to flavor, and there are strict rules on what kind of dishes and what kind of wine, such as wine for clear soup, brandy for seafood, and all kinds of liqueur or brandy for dessert.
As for the cheese used in many dishes and soups, they prefer cheese, fruits and a variety of fresh vegetables.
In the end, Fan Wuxi looked at the table, and all the famous dishes in the French meal were basically complete, such as Marseille fish soup, foie gras steak, Paris lobster, red wine pheasant, chicken saffro, chicken liver steak, etc.
"Should I compliment the chef?" In the midst of the music, Fan Wuxian raised his knife and fork, and then asked Giselle.
\\\\\ French people are more romantic, and put on some relaxing music when eating, so that the mood is better and the food is comfortable.
In fact, many musicians in Europe before the nineteenth century were in the service of the princes and nobles, and their main job was to play the right music when they were eating or sleeping, so that they could have a good appetite or sleep more soundly.
"Why?" Giselle asked curiously. Fan Wuxian replied,
"I used to hear that the French liked to praise the chef when they ate, the British liked to pay attention to etiquette when eating, and the Germans liked to eat a big meal. I wonder if this tradition still exists? Adriana preemptively said,
"That's free, they can't understand what you say anyway, they only speak French." Then Adriana looked at Fan Wuxian and said to him again,
"Please, when eating Western food, you should hold a knife in your right hand and a fork in your left hand, you confuse this order." Fan Wuxian replied indifferently,
"It's normal, I'm left-handed, and I'm used to doing the opposite." It should be said that the nutrition of these things on the table is very sufficient, but the taste can be described by the words "difficult to swallow".
No wonder someone said before that Japanese people pay attention to form when eating, so their cuisine is very exquisite, Westerners pay attention to nutrition when eating, so their noses are very large, only Chinese eat to pay attention to taste, so the tongue is very sensitive and can speak the unique language of Chinese.
At this time, Fan Wuxian deeply realized what kind of life normal French people lived, it was simply Ru Mao drinking blood and slash and burn!
Although they have developed a certain degree of industrial civilization, when it comes to treating themselves well, the gap between them and the Chinese is too big.
"If I use your kitchen to cook a few Chinese dishes as a token of appreciation, I wonder if you and your chef would mind?" Fan Wuxian, who had eaten a few bites of half-cooked food, finally put forward his idea very tactfully.
"It's a bit inappropriate, but we're also interested in learning about Chinese food." The two sisters replied after studying it for a moment.
So Fan Wuxian went into the kitchen of Giselle's house, fortunately, there was everything he needed, there were pots, bowls, knives, gas stoves, and a lot of spices, and he even found soy sauce and vinegar made in China, but they were untouched, I really don't know what they bought them for?
Half an hour later, the Giselle sisters and her cooks and servants were like wolves that had been hungry for more than ten days, sweeping away the dozen or so dishes that Fan Wuxian had fried, and were licking the bottom of the empty plate with their tongues, obviously not going to let go of the soup at all.
"Oh God! Your Chinese dishes are even more difficult to resist than the temptation of the devil! A cook sighed with pain,
"From tomorrow onwards, I will learn how to make Chinese food!" Fan Wuxian confidently said to the two sisters,
"How? Follow me and eat well! At this time, he finally put forward his request, that is, to let the two sisters become his subordinates and do things for themselves.
The talents of the two sisters can be seen, and they are very suitable for some intelligence work, even if they don't plan to use them to enter the house, they can also use their aristocratic status to enter some high-level places that ordinary people can't enter, and get some sensitive information.
The French are the most incompetent nationals, and as long as there is enough temptation, national defense secrets can be sold, not to mention some information that is conducive to their own entry into the French business world?
What Fan Wuxian hopes for now is to spend two billion US dollars, how many planes can he get from Airbus?
If the French had a bottom line, he wanted to know where that line was.
