On the dome is a picture of young boys and girls cheering and dancing. The candle flickers. Lena and others sit cross legged at the round table, while Jabbar, the boss of Shazhi house, is in the position of chairman.
It is said that sitting cross legged is the custom in Jabbar's hometown. This formal way of dining is only used when facing the most distinguished guests. Lena doesn't care much about it. However, a reserved girl with good noble education like alimia is not used to sitting cross legged.
She chose a compromise position, with her legs slightly close together and her legs apart on both sides. This position is somewhat like a duck, but it can't be seen from the robe outside.
Agnes sat down cross legged, most familiar with Jabbar, and naturally sat next to him.
"Ladies and gentlemen, this is the place where I receive important guests. I hope you don't make yourself at home."
Jabbar still said in the strong accented common language. With a big wave of his hand, he saw the waiters serving a big dinner.
Lena has been a little suspicious since then. When he saw the full table of food, he finally confirmed it.
It turns out that Jabbar is really from that desert country.
There is a plate of rice in front of everyone. Among the hot rice grains are red and yellow carrots. Large pieces of fresh mutton are dotted in the rice. In the middle of the table is a fat roast lamb. There are all kinds of thick yellow green vegetables and meat stews on the table. Of course, there is no lack of well baked cakes. These foods were not in the aristocratic's taste before I've seen it on the dining table. Obviously, it's not a common food on the mainland, but a special dish with exotic customs.
"What's this..."
aimiya asked hesitantly as she looked at the sticky stew in front of her.
"This is my hometown's delicacy. Curry is made of ginger, pepper, garlic, onion and other spices. It's delicious when stewed with vegetables and meat. You must try it."
Jabbar said with pride, and then he gave a brief introduction to each dish, but it was basically chicken yellow curry, beef yellow curry, mutton green curry and so on. It seemed that curry and meat of various animals were randomly matched.
Allimia has never heard of the word curry, but she still knows the spices of pepper. Judging from the formula, these dishes seem to have a strong taste.
Lena knows curry. Although the pronunciation of this word is quite different from that on earth, he can roughly guess from what he saw and Jabbar's explanation. He picked up a spoon, filled a small plate of curry and sent it to the mouth with rice.
The first thing I feel is the pungency of curry, but it's not the pungent taste that makes my throat hot. It's the key to stimulate my appetite. Vegetables and meat have been infected with the flavor of curry, and their own taste is mixed with it, becoming rich in layers. Soft rice plays a role in reconciliation, which makes me unable to stop eating.
After seeing Agnes and Lena eating the curry, other people also picked up the plate one after another. Only alimia, staring at Lena's expression, hesitated to start.
"Alimia, why don't you eat it?"
Jane sat next to alimia, enjoying this exotic food. Seeing that the food in front of alimia hardly moved, she asked curiously.
"Er....
aimiya stops talking. She looks at Lena, who is eating happily. Lena gently puts down her spoon and says to aimiya.
"It's delicious. Don't you try it?"
On the contrary, alimia had more resistance when she heard what Lena said.
Yes, even if she was starving, she would never eat such sticky food!
But on second thought, it seems that I don't respect Jabbar so much. No matter what, it's the food carefully prepared by others. Besides, other people don't have any different reaction to it. Should I try it?
After much thought, alimia finally picked up the spoon and mixed the curry and rice in her mouth like Lena.
How delicious!
This is the first reaction of alimia.
This kind of food looks sticky. I didn't expect it to be so delicious!
She did not have time to chew, throat on their own to swallow, at this moment, alimia heart only one idea.
Have another bite!
She couldn't wait to serve another spoonful of rice with curry sauce. Just as she was about to deliver it to her mouth, she saw Lena looking at herself with a mysterious smile.
"It's really delicious, isn't it?"
On the one hand, this curry is really delicious enough to entertain her hungry body. On the other hand, her previous boycott now seems so ridiculous. If she continues to eat it, she always feels beaten in the face.
After hesitating for a moment, alimia finally chose to give up thinking.
Whatever, it's delicious.
Emilia nodded silently and continued to eat the curry on her plate with an elegant but non-stop speed.Jabbar and Agnes and others are discussing various topics, from the recent situation of the magic world to the price of half a plane, and alimia, who can't get in a word and is not interested in speaking, can only fight with the delicious food on the table.
In addition to the special curry, roasted lamb and fried rice taste quite good. These spicy dishes have a special flavor, with stimulating but not abrupt food, which gives almiya a a different feeling of eating simple and light food on weekdays.
But after she was full, alimya was also a little tangled.
It seems that I have become the same as Lena unconsciously. I should be more principled.
In the meantime, the waiter served another ice cream dessert in front of everyone.
The snow-white ice cream ball is dotted with vanilla. It seems that Jabbar's motherland has penetrated spices into all aspects of life.
Whatever, it's over.
Alimia no longer tangled, picked up the ice cream, with a small spoon to eat.
The sweet ice cream is cool and delicious, and the dotted vanilla is not just decoration. You can feel that when making ice cream, vanilla has been mixed in as a material. Compared with the ice cream with strong sweet taste in the past, this one in alimia's hand has more diversified taste feeling.
"You seem to enjoy the dinner."
Lena whispered to Emilia, who was immersed in the delicious ice cream, which made the girl blush.
Aimiya subconsciously moved her body, which was stiff because of her sedentary. In the face of Lena's question, she did not have the high cold before, but replied honestly.
"It's all because it's delicious...
