spn Everton currently only has two competitions left, the UEFA Cup and the Premier League. The intensity of the second half of the game is much smaller. After the first leg of the UEFA Cup knockout round, it will be the national team match day. Everton's last
There are almost no national team members in the team, so Everton can easily give the players a few days off before training for the second leg of the UEFA Cup at home next week.
Li Yu was not idle at all during the holidays. The Spring Festival coincided with his return to competition. Now that he had some free time, he decided to make up for the Spring Festival in the UK. Early in the morning, he went to Chinatown to buy all kinds of Chinese food.
Traditional delicacies, of course, include the noodles and various vegetables needed to make dumplings. He planned to make the dumplings himself.
However, he did not celebrate alone. All Everton players and even head coach Moyes received an invitation from Li Yu. No matter who arrived first, they had to join in making dumplings.
The first one to come is none other than Moyes!
The traditional Christmas for Westerners has just passed, and everyone in Everton wants to experience a mysterious Eastern festival. Almost everyone is preparing to attend Li Yu’s preparation party.[
"Happy New Year!"
Li Yu opened the door and saw Johnson wearing a Santa hat speaking a nondescript congratulatory message.
"Haha, bald man, happy New Year, okay? Besides, why are you wearing a Christmas hat?"
Li Yu smiled and led the guest in.
"Almost, almost like a ghost!"
As soon as Johnson entered the door and put down the large bottle of champagne in his hand, he saw a figure and immediately exclaimed.
Moyes was rolling out dumpling wrappers with a rolling pin. The Scotsman noticed that he was at home and had never been in the kitchen. At this moment, Li Yu grabbed the strong man and made flour all over his face. No wonder Johnson was shocked.
Johnson, who originally wanted to be lazy, was warned by a look from Moyes and reluctantly joined the dumpling-making army. As the three of them chatted, they thought about who would arrive next.
Bald men are still an old problem. If you open a bet, of course the one with the lowest odds is Arteta. Everyone would have thought that the Spaniard usually has the best relationship with Li Yu, so it should be almost time.
Moyes's one hundred pounds will be Arteta's, but Li Yu has a different view. He thinks it will be someone else, so the bet is very simple. Arteta comes to Moyes to win money, and others come to Li Yu to win money.
Johnson didn't have to pay any money inside and outside, and he just acted as the banker.
As soon as the three of them finished their agreement, the doorbell rang. Li Yu hurried to open the door. Before the door opened, he heard the greeting "Happy New Year!" outside the door. It wasn't Captain Neville or someone else, and he lost one hundred pounds!
Li Yu was also surprised. How come these people all said Happy New Year, and the gifts were surprisingly similar. It was still wine, but it was replaced by two dozen beers. It is very common to give wine to parties in the UK!
The making of dumplings continues, and now there are four people. Most of the Westerners have eaten dumplings before. Of course it was in Chinatown, but when it comes to making dumplings, it is the first time for the older girls, including Li Yu, to get on the sedan chair, especially
It was Moyes who was in charge of rolling the pizza. He completely followed the pizza making method. He would shake it in the air from time to time. His posture was quite handsome. However, the fact that flour kept falling in the air made him lose his cool moves.
After a few moments, he was stopped by others.
The dumpling fillings that Li Yu prepared in advance were basically a hodgepodge. Some and all were put together and mixed together to form dumpling fillings. Anyway, a bunch of Everton gringos, no one had ever seen it before, so they couldn't tell what it was.
inappropriate.
Moyes and Li Yu were responsible for rolling out the dumplings, and the remaining two were making dumplings. The dumplings that came out could not be regarded as dumplings. They were filled with fillings wrapped in two skins. This is what Neville did from the beginning. Johnson was even more funny and directly picked up Moyes to imitate.
The pizza dumpling wrappers were put with dumpling fillings on top. Li Yu finally knew what it was like to instruct a group of foreigners to make dumplings. He was already prepared to order takeout.
You can't eat it, but a few people are very happy with it. Of course, the gambling has not stopped. This time the waiting time was a bit long. It was only when everyone recalled that they discovered the problem. Li Yu was so careless that the specific time was not written on the invitation.
The first few people who arrived were all free to play, so the bet had to change. Arteta's odds increased a lot. Three people placed bets. Neville bought the German Osman. His reason was very simple.
, Germans are always rigorous, and they should arrive earlier than others when there is no time for invitations.
Li Yu is more optimistic about Lescott. His home is only 2 streets away from here and should be there soon.
The Scotsman, who has always been serious in the club, rarely put down his arrogance as the head coach today. He had already lost once and didn't want to bet again. He was coaxed by others and bought someone at random, Albeche!
No one else noticed that Johnson, the banker of the gambling game, could get money without paying any money at all, and the more people there were, the more he got.[
The doorbell finally rang again, and he stopped making dumplings. He waited for Li Yu to open the door to see who was coming. When the door opened, the most depressing suspicion was Johnson.
Albeche and Lescott stood together in front of the door, planning a good bet, and Johnson put money in.
No one was stupid, and the three people who placed bets all laughed out loud when they saw Johnson's expression.
Albertche and Lescott, who were still confused about the situation, looked at each other and said that there was nothing unusual. What happened to these people's faces? They forgot to say the opening remarks they originally wanted to say.
After the dumpling makers divided the money, they realized that there was another gambling game.
"Lee, this is a gift from him and me to you!"
Lescott finally spoke, but with empty hands, he hummed a beat. Next it was Albertche's turn.
"Happy New Year!"
"Lee, happy new year!"
These two people are so talented. Even if they didn’t mention the foreign double act as a gift, they still sang Happy New Year.
Except for Li Yu, everyone else couldn't stop laughing. The two performers sang several times before stopping.
Johnson is worthy of being a banker. He found a better way to bet on what greetings people will say after a while. According to the current situation, no one has said other greetings except Happy New Year. Of course, the two performers are also included.
The next rules were even simpler. When someone came to say Happy New Year, each person gave Johnson 50 pounds. He didn't say anything else. Johnson gave each person 100 pounds. It felt like the bald man had lost money, but he thought about it as long as it was
, he couldn’t say anything else anyway, Happy New Year is more reliable.
There were no more dumplings to make, and everyone looked at the gate. With Johnson here, there was really no need to worry about no program.
Around 3 pm, it was the peak time for guests, and three people came in a row, Osman, Cahir, and Pienaar!
All three of them said the opening words of "Happy New Year", which made Johnson smile from ear to ear and couldn't help but touch his bald head. He didn't even know he had white noodles on his hands, but all of them were white.
Li Yu then remembered that she had prepared Spring Festival songs a long time ago and immediately played them. She found that this trick still didn't work. No one could understand the Chinese songs. Later, Hibbert made everyone lose money.
I simply sang Christmas songs in English, listened to the sound of jingle bells as soon as I entered the door, and said Happy New Year, and everyone agreed to give me 100 pounds.
Arteta finally rang the doorbell at the critical moment. After opening the door, Li Yu pointed to his ear without saying a word, which meant that you should listen carefully before speaking.
There was a drama, and after the hint, the Spaniard really didn't say anything after entering the door, but when he looked inside, everyone pointed to their ears nervously, and Arteta felt a little scared in his heart, "What happened to falling to the ground!"
Giving Li Yu a questioning look, Li Yu glanced at the speaker that was playing the song.
Arteta nodded in understanding and smiled knowingly.
"Happy New Year!"[
"Damn it! This even says Happy New Year!"
"You're a big idiot. It's so obvious and you still say that!"
"The 100 pounds is gone again. Do you have something wrong with your ears?"
Everyone criticized Arteta for causing them to lose more money.
The smart-alecked Arteta was extremely depressed, "Can you make it difficult on the hour? You say Happy New Year and I say Merry Christmas. It's been mysterious for a long time and it's not so straightforward!"
Johnson smiled so sweetly that Li Yu immediately flew over the dumplings he had made.
But there was something wrong with the accuracy. Johnson didn't fly, but Lescott was caught. After a while, the dumpling-making activity turned into a dumpling-throwing battle. Dough and dumpling fillings were everywhere. It seemed that the party could not go on.
At the critical moment, Moyes can only take charge of the overall situation.
Fortunately, everyone at the party unanimously did not bring their family members, so the apartment, which was not large in the first place, was already overcrowded. After a lot of trouble, when everyone arrived, Moyes decisively suggested that everyone go to the nearest hotel to gather.
The rest of the expenses will be paid by Everton Club, and it will be used to benefit everyone.
Before going to the hotel, everyone first arrived at Everton's training base. There was no way Li Yu's home was not far from the base. They had to clean up before going to the hotel. Otherwise, the hotel might not let these players in at all.
The reporters staying downstairs from Li Yu were finally here this time. The Everton players, who had only done some simple cleaning, just came downstairs. The flashing lights didn’t stop. It was a rare breaking news. Johnson was originally there with the reporters.
To say something, Moyes noticed a stern look from the reporter present and immediately asked the bald man to get in the car and go to the base obediently.
Li Yu's party to celebrate the Spring Festival was more like an Everton party. If there were no reporters taking pictures, overall everyone had a good time, including Moyes, who was throwing dumplings.
