Chapter 199 Hot Pot Banquet in Progress
The friends looked in the direction of the sound... Wow! They saw many people coming outside the light curtain one after another, looking around for something. Because of Yang Tian's magic shield, the outside world could not see the shield and the details inside the shield.
Penelope took a look and said with a puzzled but embarrassed look on her face: "I called Angelina and Elena here. We get along very well in the Transfiguration Club, so I wanted to take this opportunity to talk to her more today. But what about the others?"
Neville also looked outside and said weakly, "Senior Cedric came to see me. He is always very nice to us in Hufflepuff. After the Quidditch game today, he chatted with me and expressed his desire to join our study group. Hannah and I don't dare to make the decision, so we wanted to take advantage of today's gathering to let him come and get along with everyone, and then ask for everyone's opinions. As for the others, I really don't know."
Yang Tian looked at the other friends with a questioning look.
Pansy jumped up like a frightened rabbit and explained in a low voice: "I called Draco here. Goyle and Crabbe should have followed Draco. After all, they are inseparable. Yang... Yang Tian, I have already reported to you that the Malfoy family clearly stated that they wanted the Parkinson family to help introduce Draco into the circle."
Yang Tian laughed when he heard this and said, "What are you doing? I'm not here to accuse you, I'm just asking casually!"
Then he started to tease, "Now that everyone else knows where they came from, has anyone claimed the Weasley twins?"
Seeing that no one responded, Yang Tian said jokingly: "Come with me to pick them up. See how I tease these two brothers."
But at this moment, Daphne suddenly said in disgust: "It doesn't matter to others, but what the hell are those two hiding in the distance? Haven't they apologized and reconciled? Why are they still sneaking around? I wonder if they have some conspiracy."
Everyone looked in the distance following the sound... Oh my goodness! Isn't that Ron and Harry?
"What is this? Surveillance?" The hot-tempered Parvati was the first to quit.
"Why not just go and ask them what they want to do?" Hermione frowned.
"Forget it, let them monitor us. Since we are not of the same kind, it is better not to force ourselves to get together." Penelope said casually.
The friends thought it made sense, so they stopped talking and quickly followed Yang Tian out.
"Hey, fellow seniors, why are you coming to me so late at night instead of enjoying your wonderful vacation? Do you miss me too much?" Yang Tian asked jokingly.
Angelina said with a look of disgust when she heard this: "Go away, go away. Senior Elena and I are not here to see you. We are here to see Penelope. As for the Weasley brothers, huh, they overheard our conversation and followed us here. It has nothing to do with us." After that, she dragged Elena, who was reluctant, towards Penelope.
Fred was immediately dissatisfied when he heard it: "What do you mean by eavesdropping? You guys are talking so loudly, do we still need to eavesdrop?"
George also replied with an indignant look on his face: "That's right, that's right. And I want to say that we have always been honest. I dare to tell Yang Tian frankly that we just want to experience oriental food. We are just greedy. Humph, unlike you!"
Everyone burst into laughter after hearing this. It must be said that where the Weasley brothers are, there is never a lack of laughter.
Among them, only one person did not laugh, and that was Elena. Originally, the personal feud between her and Yang Tian had been at a stalemate. For a while, she was determined to secretly follow Yang Tian every day, hoping to find an opportunity to give Yang Tian a hard time and take revenge. Who would have thought that Yang Tian was smarter than a monkey, and her schemes were no match for him, and he easily dodged them.
Later, Yang Tian was injured and taken back to the clan to recuperate, and the grudge could only be temporarily put aside. But when school started again, this inconspicuous junior brother was already like a star, and there was no chance for revenge! It must be said that this was almost becoming Elena's nightmare.
So, when Penelope and Angelina talked to her about Yang Tian's party, her reaction was cold. How could this lady miss that meal? But due to the two women's bombardment, she was forced to come.
But now! Are you greedy? Who are you talking about? Elena was ready to pull out her wand and beat someone. Fortunately, Penelope and Angelina reacted quickly and hugged the senior sister directly.
The two brothers felt aggrieved. George said aggrievedly: "What? If you have the guts, go find Yang Tian to settle the score. Why are you bullying us?"
Fred also whispered, "That's right, if you can beat him up, we will cheer for you."
Yang Tian put his arms around the brothers' necks with a dangerous look in his eyes and said, "I noticed that you two are not only here to enjoy the food, but also to ruin the pot! Now shut up immediately, otherwise, I won't give you any food for a while."
The two brothers just wanted to take the opportunity to step down, and they stopped talking after hearing this.
Yang Tian hurried to Elena and said flatteringly, "Senior sister, it is said that there is no friendship without fighting. Today's hot pot feast is also an apology to you! If you are not satisfied with the food later, you can throw me into the Black Lake to vent your anger, is that okay?"
After that, without giving Elena a chance to speak, he signaled everyone to surround the reluctant senior sister and walk into the protective cover...
Although they had been mentally prepared before coming, the newcomers were still shocked by the grand dinner scene before them. Such a scene was indeed unprecedented.
Under the guidance of their friends, everyone followed the local customs, got some drinks, and sat together to chat.
At this time, white mist rose from the dining table, obviously the soup base had boiled. Yang Tian pulled out his magic wand and waved and shook it, and the huge pot lid floated to the side.
"What the Weasley brothers have in front of them is Chaoshan beef hotpot. The soup base is made from the best beef vertebrae slaughtered that day, combined with red dates, wolfberries and other ingredients. You must remember, cook the neck for 8 seconds, the toes for 15 seconds, and the dragon head for 10 seconds... Of course, if you eat this kind of hotpot, you can try shacha sauce, chili sauce and Puning soybeans as dipping sauces." Yang Tian introduced to everyone how to eat the hotpot in front of them.
"Yang Tian, what's this pot of mine? It feels like just clear water! Why is yours so rich? Are you bullying me and senior Elena for not understanding?" Angelina's dissatisfied voice came.
"Don't be so unfair to me. This is the authentic Old Beijing mutton hotpot. It uses the finest spring water, and the taste is pure. Just add some scallions, ginger slices, and star anise. But the dipping sauce is particular. It needs sesame paste, chives, fermented tofu... and according to different tastes, it can be matched with old vinegar, shrimp oil, fish sauce and so on." Yang Tian gave another eloquent explanation, which stunned the two beautiful senior sisters.
"Zhang Qiu, you should know that what you have in front of you is Guangdong seafood hotpot, right? This is also called hotpot, and the food is all about freshness..."
......
Next, the Yunnan wild mushroom hotpot, Guangxi grouper hotpot, Hainan coconut chicken hotpot... Yang Tian's explanation one by one opened the eyes of everyone present; everyone also hurriedly prepared their own sauces according to Yang Tian's instructions.
But just when everything was ready, everyone discovered a fatal problem: they didn't know how to use chopsticks! Except for Yang Tian and Zhang Qiu, all the friends stared at the two small wooden sticks in front of them in a daze.
Yang Tian also slapped his forehead, completely convinced. How could he have forgotten such an important detail after all the planning?
But the friends also had their own tricks. Except for the Weasley brothers who insisted on using chopsticks, which caused a lot of laughter, the others drew their wands and used the levitation spell to the extreme. For a while, the scene was very lively.
Of course, playing is fun, but eating is even more fun! Chinese food is unimaginably delicious for Britain, which is known as a food desert.
"Wow, this beef is so delicious, spicy and sizzling, so delicious."
"Hermione, try my coconut chicken hotpot. The soup base is especially sweet."
