Chapter 31 Chinese Cuisine Trying and Diagon Alley Shopping
·
Chu Ni Fan Wan
When Sun Zhengxing returned home, he found that his daughter was not reading in the living room or in the room as before, but was tinkering with something in the kitchen.
"What, are you hungry, Azhu?" He was a little surprised, "I came back late recently..."
"Since this is the case, Dad, you can take a rest, I'll cook." Sun Zhutou didn't bother to continue working.
In terms of cooking skills, she is actually mediocre, but she still thought about it in her previous life in order not to always eat takeaway.
As for the food cooked by Sun Zhengxing, of course it cannot be said to be unpalatable, but most of the housework is done by magic, so it is not very delicious.
Since both father and daughter cook mediocre meals, it doesn't matter whoever cooks them.
Before Sun Zhengxing put down his things and came over to give his hand, Sun Zhu said excitedly, "You're done!"
Sun Zhengxing was taken aback and went over to have a look.
"Azhu, what are these?"
"Tomato and egg soup, green pepper and potato shreds, corn pancakes..." She has tried her best. Although they are all home-cooked dishes, it may not be easy to come up with these dishes in London.
"This is a common thing in China, and it's pretty good." Facing Sun Zhu's expectant gaze, Sun Zhengxing smiled, "Why did Ah Zhu think of doing this? I never taught you."
Seeing that he seemed to be eating with some reluctance, Sun Zhu tasted the chopsticks and found it was okay.
"I went to the Muggle bookstore and saw there were Huaxia cookbooks for sale, so I followed suit." She didn't forget to make it up casually, "Looking at how hard Dad has been working so hard recently, I just wanted to give it a try."
You can't tell him, because your recent overtime work is all because of me, so I have a guilty conscience and want to make up for it?
When Sun Zhengxing heard this, he was very pleased: "Ah Zhu is really the most obedient child in the world."
"It's useless to just talk about it, the most practical thing is to eat them all." Sun Zhu said with a smile.
"..." Sun Zhengxing accepted his fate and picked up the spoon.
"And this." She handed over a pair of chopsticks, "Dad, you don't have to treat death like this, I've tasted it, and it's not hard to swallow."
"No." Sun Zhengxing smiled dryly, "It's delicious, but Dad was thinking about something just now."
"Is it something about work?" She took a sip of the soup, which was a bit salty, but it was still far from unpalatable.
"No, I just met a very interesting friend recently, haha. He said that his family has a big family. Thinking about it, it's really lively. Ah Zhu, do you sometimes feel that being alone at home is boring?" Sun Zhengxing glanced at her cautiously as he spoke.
"No, why do I think so. Dad, don't think too much, I'm comfortable alone." Sun Zhu was a little surprised. Although she really didn't think there was anything wrong with being alone, she also felt that it might be a little bit Indifferently, "However, if Dad can finish his work earlier, it would be better to accompany me to choose some gifts. I will prepare gifts for many people this year, so I am really not sure."
"Father also wants to end it quickly." Sun Zhengxing sighed, "Although this time is not difficult, it is a bit cumbersome and may require more effort."
Obviously there is a more convenient method, but the leader is unwilling to use it, so they are the only ones who have worked hard.
"Well, I'm not in a hurry." Sun Zhu felt a little guilty, she didn't expect the Ministry of Magic to be so inefficient, but it was indeed because of her.
"Azhu, if you want to go earlier, you can." Sun Zhengxing saw that she was silent, afraid that she would be too disappointed, and suddenly said: "I heard from a friend that his wife is going to take the children to Diagon Alley to buy some things this weekend. You can Go with them."
"Will that be too troublesome?" Sun Zhu subconsciously refused.
"No, their family is very enthusiastic, and even invited us to his house for Christmas."
But this is still a bit too exaggerated. The other party knows that they are only father and daughter, so they want them to be more lively, but after all, they have not known each other for a long time, so how dare they really bother.
But he knew the invitation was sincere, so...
"Azhu, his house is very lively, the hostess is gentle and loving, and the children are also very interesting." Sun Zhengxing said: "You will also like them when you see them."
"Okay then." Seeing that his father was so excited, Sun Zhu was curious about what kind of family the other party was.
It would be good to let Dad have a rest if he can save Dad a little trouble.
"Since you are willing, I will talk to Arthur tomorrow. I will send you to Diagon Alley to meet them on the weekend, but Dad still has to continue working, but I think it's almost time to finish this weekend."
"That's great, Dad." Sun Zhu finally felt relieved, fearing that the work would never end.
but……
"Dad, what's the name of that friend you mentioned?"
"It's Mr Arthur Weasley. He works in the Misuse of Muggle Artifacts Office of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement. I've been working with him recently."
It's time to come, it's finally here.
Sun Zhu was a little dazed, how could dad be so good at making friends.
It seemed that I had promised something extraordinary just now.
"Hope I don't give Mrs Weasley any trouble."
I don't know if it's because of expectations, but the days to come pass extremely slowly.
When it finally came to the weekend, Sun Zhu got up early in the morning, fully dressed and followed his father out the door.
Until he came to the Leaky Cauldron on Charing Cross Road, Sun Zhushang still had a sense of unreality.
The bar was far more lively and crowded than she had imagined. It is said that a strong concealment spell and a Muggle expulsion spell have been placed here. Will leave when suddenly thinking of something else when trying to get close.
A little wizard like Sun Zhu who doesn't have a magic wand can't enter here alone, so despite her long-standing reputation, this is the first time she has come here with Sun Zhengxing.
When Tom, the owner of the bar, saw someone coming, he simply said hello, because there were really too many people here.
It is conceivable that there will be many wizards who need to come to Diagon Alley for shopping on the weekends approaching Christmas, and the Leaky Cauldron has become one of the busiest transit points.
"Azhu, have you brought all the money your father gave you?"
"Of course, how could I forget such an important thing." Sun Zhu patted his small satchel, which contained a lot of wizard and Muggle currency.
As for how much she could buy, she actually didn't have much idea of the prices in the wizarding world, but judging by Sun Zhengxing's generosity, she didn't think she would run out of money.
"Okay, then Dad is going to take you to your destination. You must listen to Mrs. Weasley when you get there."
"Don't worry, I promise to be obedient and not embarrass my father."
"How can you be ashamed, no matter what Ah Zhu does, you are the pride of your father." Sun Zhengxing laughed loudly, and pulled her to the wall at the back door of the bar. He tapped the wall brick next to the trash can with his magic wand, and the wall became A door opened, and the entrance to Diagon Alley appeared.
Sun Zhu looked at the magic wand in his father's hand. It had an ash wood body and a dragon's nerve as the core. It seemed that he had been with his father for many years.
"Azhu, why are you standing there, let's go."
She regained her senses, followed Sun Zhengxing through the door, and came to this bustling pebble avenue.
"What, are you hungry, Azhu?" He was a little surprised, "I came back late recently..."
"Since this is the case, Dad, you can take a rest, I'll cook." Sun Zhutou didn't bother to continue working.
