Shang Qingyun and Leng Jiayue embraced each other warmly. Later, I heard from Shang Qingyun's chat that Shang Qingyun knew that Leng Jiayue was coming.

"Sister, I'm sorry, I've been in a daze these past two days. I went to bed without waiting for you last night, and I didn't know when you left in the morning. The dumplings will be ready soon. Eat some later, and I'll make some vegetarian ones for you.

"

"It's good. This state is the best. It shows that you completely treat me as one of your own. Jiayue said before that she was too tired from work, so I asked her to come over to relax. She is really big-hearted and comes as she says.

Yes. But I like it and welcome it very much." Shang Qingyun said.

When Shang Qingyun said this, I thought that depressed people might do things a little differently, and the feeling of anger would disappear immediately. Instead, I was a little depressed. Not only did I not take good care of Hua Wen, but I also didn't take good care of Shang Qingyun and Leng Jiayue.

Although I have no obligation to take care of these two people.

"I'm sorry, as a friend, I didn't contact you often and couldn't make you feel the warmth of friendship." I said.

"Brother, you are getting thicker and thicker now. You don't even blush when you tell lies." Leng Jiayue finally laughed. When she saw her at the airport, she smiled, and then kept a grimace.

"Did you feel aggrieved just now? I'm sorry, I actually cared about what you said, but then I thought about it, if I have money but I don't make it, that's all. No matter what, anyone who can make me money is my god." I said.

I have adapted what Chen Yan said. Chen Yan is right. You can’t live with anything, but you can’t live with money.

"Jiayue, you are so busy. Just say hello and I will go to Beijing to see you." I guessed that Leng Jiayue was actually on a business trip in China this time, and it was not a special apology.

"Sister Qingyun is right, sometimes you have to be willing to let go. She said that she was taking photos in southern Xinjiang, so I thought of arranging time to come over to rest and see you. It's boring for you to go to Beijing. I was still thinking about Kashgar. Here I am.

I didn’t take a good look at the ancient city twice. You take me to the ancient city tomorrow." Leng Jiayue finally told the truth.

Neither Leng Jiayue nor Shang Qingyun knew how to make dumplings, so they sat on the kang and watched me work. The beef filling had been mixed, and twenty or thirty pieces were made. They boiled the dumplings first, and blanch the ones that were not used up.

I cut some alfalfa, scrambled eggs, and mixed it with alfalfa egg filling.

"Sister, vegetarians think eggs are meat? But I have nothing to mix with stuffing here? Can you eat it?"

"Yes, as I said, I am not a vegetarian? I just travel a lot in Xinjiang and eat very little meat. Those people in the mountains actually don't eat much meat."

What Shang Qingyun said is true. Whether herdsmen or farmers, those with good conditions often eat meat, while those with poor conditions mostly eat naan and ramen? Pilaf is also vegetarian rice with raisins, not

People misunderstand that people eat meat every day and only eat some meat on major holidays.

"Brother, my phone shows that you called me last night?"

"Is everything okay now? I wanted to ask about the United Nations." Suddenly I didn't want to tell them about Hua Wen? This is now considered a family matter.

"Ah? Brother, are you so high-end now? Are you involved in the affairs of the United Nations?"

"A friend? He really wants to work at the United Nations, and he wants to help with recruitment matters." I lied.

"Okay? Stop lying. You can't go. At least a few foreign languages ​​are required? Fluency in English and French is best? You also need to have international work experience, that is, you have worked in relevant United Nations agencies before. When Tong Huawen and I were both in college

I have worked part-time. Brother, if you want to go to the United States, I can help you do it." Leng Jiayue said.

"Forget it, I really won't tell lies. Hua Wen originally said she would take care of her father, but she found a job at the United Nations. After she got in, she was recommended for a project position. I don't know what she does specifically. In the past two days,

I went to Africa. The place was a mess and I was a little worried. I just wanted to know the situation beforehand."

"I'm still a little worried. I think I'm very worried. Look at you, I'm not even happy when I come, and I've even forgotten about Sister Qingyun staying at your house." Leng Jiayue said.

"Jiayue, stop talking. I have the key here. I leave early and come home late. It's normal for my brother not to see me." Shang Qingyun said.

The atmosphere was a bit awkward. I cooked the dumplings, making them with vegetarian fillings. I gave Leng Jiayue the meat fillings first, and finally I made dozens more for myself. After finishing the dumplings, I didn’t want to move anymore. It was too tiring to make dumplings.

.

To avoid an awkward atmosphere, I asked a question.

"Jiayue, I heard some foreigners say a long time ago that Chinese people are wasting their time making dumplings. Is it true?"

"There is no such thing, but they rarely eat dumplings. I know that East Asian countries like Japan and South Korea also like dumplings, but we really just eat them as a kind of Chinese food. So there are all kinds of Chinese food in the United States, but only

There are not many dumplings for sale. There are quick-frozen dumplings in Asian supermarkets, and we rarely buy and eat them. It’s not that we don’t like them, but we’re just not used to them. Those new overseas students or immigrants prefer them,” Leng Jiayue explained to me.

I successfully brought the topic to the difference in eating.

"Brother, go to the United States and open a dumpling restaurant. That way you can live in the United States without asking for my help."

"I'm not that good. Are American dumplings profitable? I haven't seen a dumpling restaurant, at least you haven't seen one in Kansas."

"I don't know. Anyway, it's very expensive. It's sold by the piece or portion. Many people probably can't afford it, so my mother talked about the dumplings you made for me for a long time. How should I say it? Qianli sent me a goose feather as a gift.

The affection is heavy.”

"The story of sending goose feathers thousands of miles away has something to do with Xinjiang. During the Tang Dynasty, the Western Regions brought many gifts to the emperor, including a white swan. Because it was alive, the people who paid tribute were particularly careful, fearing that this

The swan had a problem. It happened to reach a place called Mianyang River. The swan seemed to be dying. The tribute man was afraid, so he put the swan on the river and let the swan drink water by itself. The swan was indeed dying, so it collapsed on the river.

Recovering physical strength. So the man didn't worry about the swan running away. As a result, the swan took a second thought, recovered a little strength and flew away. The tribute man didn't catch it, but only plucked off a snow-white feather. He bit the bullet and took it.

The feathers were presented to the emperor, euphemistically known as the gift of goose feathers from a thousand miles away. The emperor was open-minded, not angry but very happy, probably similar to pardoning turkeys on Thanksgiving, so this story became a good story." I told it.

a story.

"Brother, are you saying that I didn't bring you a gift? I helped you buy a European company, but the company is indeed a bit small." Leng Jiayue said this unexpectedly after hearing this. I thought she was joking,

Just didn't take it seriously.

"Actually, there is another version of this story. It is said that the person who paid tribute was greedy, so he ate the swan on the road because everyone said that the toad wanted to eat swan meat, so the swan meat must be delicious.

Afraid that it would be difficult to explain, he kept the feathers of the swan to lie to the emperor, saying that the swan flew away while drinking water, leaving only the feathers. Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty had also seen a lot of things, so he didn't say anything. He praised him and said that sending goose feathers as a gift from thousands of miles away was not a sign of affection.

Thank you very much." I said.

"Brother, you say you are a toad?"
