Entering July, people have also entered midsummer.
In the evening, just as the sun was about to sink, it shot out more brilliant colors. The colors in the sky changed rapidly. Sometimes they were red, sometimes light blue mixed with purple, and sometimes red with blue and gold. The sun
It has completely sunk, but the afterglow in the sky has not dissipated, and it does not gradually fade until the moon rises.
Pujiang City, which had been noisy all day, did not remain silent for a moment. Instead, it pushed the human drama to a hustle and bustle. In this metropolis with a population of tens of millions, joys and sorrows are staged every day. Some people are together because of love, and some are because they are gone.
When love breaks up, some people lock themselves in the car and remain silent, some people run on the street and yell to vent their anger, some people are happy, some people are discouraged, some people have a taste of love for the first time, and some people feel lost...
The crew of "The Silent Truth" has finished filming, and the wrapping party is scheduled to be held tomorrow. Let's go back and have a good rest today. We need to rest after being busy for several months.
"Come to my place and let's chat." Zhang Tan found Su Lan and extended an invitation.
The negative news about Zhang Tan has been suppressed. No one on the Internet cares about him anymore. There are new big names in the entertainment industry every day. Who would always worry about a screenwriter?
However, Zhang Tan knew that this matter was far from over. For him and Su Lan, this matter had always been a sticking point in their throats, causing a rift between them.
Su Lan has been neither cold nor indifferent to him for a long time, neither far nor close.
Zhang Tan knew that she was very concerned about it.
For Su Lan, of course she minded. If her boyfriend said such things, and she was indifferent, that meant she didn't love him at all.
It is precisely because I love him that I care about his past.
During this period, she took a cold approach and was so upset that she didn't know how to deal with it.
Now that the filming of the TV series is over, it is time to put an end to this matter and give a result to the relationship between the two.
"Okay." Su Lanyan said concisely.
"Let's go together and take my car." Zhang Tan said.
Su Lan glanced at Yang Zhu who was waiting for her not far away and the crowd leaving the venue. Many people looked at them and said, "No, Zhuzhu and I will go there together later. You can go first."
"Okay then, I'll cook tonight. Do you have anything you want to eat?" Zhang Tan asked.
"Actually, it doesn't have to be that troublesome."
"Su Lan~~ You will stay in Pujiang for a few days after filming is completed. There is a brand event that I want to invite you to. I told you about it yesterday and I hope I can help introduce you to it. Do you think you will be free when?"
The person speaking was Wang Han’s agent.
Upon seeing this, Zhang Tan said goodbye and left first.
After driving back to Huangjia Village, Zhang Tan walked to the village's vegetable market to buy vegetables. Thinking that Su Lan liked to eat fish, he selected a few, and finally picked a large grass carp.
"These are all fresh, just caught today," said the fish vendor.
"Are there any from the past two days?" Zhang Tan asked. These grass carps are indeed lively and full of energy. What the boss said must be true.
"Two days ago? What? Isn't fresh fish better?" the boss said.
"Have you?"
"...Yes, there is, but compared to these fresh fish, the energy level is much lower."
"That doesn't matter, as long as it's alive."
"I'll look for it for you."
Zhang Tan bought a one-and-a-half-pound grass carp and left. The grass carp had been kept in the water tank for almost three days without feeding and had no strength.
This was a fish that slipped through the net because it was too "small" and never sold.
The grass carp on the market now is about 3 kilograms. There are indeed very few grass carp like this one and a half kilograms.
But Zhang Tan particularly likes this one. On the one hand, many grass carp now grow up eating feed. The ones fished out and sold on the market are basically big fish, about three kilograms, one and a half kilograms like this, or
Wild fish, or those that eat less feed, no matter which one, are better than those big fish, with fresh and tender meat.
On the other hand, this grass carp has not been sold for three days, and it has not been fed. In this way, the grass carp will spit out everything it eats, thus reducing the fishy smell of earth.
Back home, Zhang Tan started cooking. The grass carp had been killed at the market, which saved him a lot of effort. He took out his kitchen knife and cut the grass carp into two halves, half with bones and half without bones.
The ones with bones are male slices, and the ones without bones are female slices. After washing, put them aside and wait for the water to boil.
Zhang Tan poured water into the pot, added green onion and ginger slices, cooking wine, and cooked over high heat. When the water boiled but not boiling, he added the male slices first, and after cooking for a minute, he added the female slices.
At this time, the fire needs to be reduced to a low heat to prevent the water in the pot from boiling, so you need to add cold water several times during this period to ensure that the water is boiling but not boiling.
After cooking like this for 10 minutes, take out the fish and set it aside.
The fish soup in the pot fills a bowl, and the rest can be thrown away.
Pour the fish soup in the bowl into the pot, add sugar, rice vinegar, soy sauce, cooking wine, bring to a boil over low heat, then add starch to thicken and turn off the heat.
Pour the gravy over the piled fish fillets, and finally sprinkle with minced ginger, and a West Lake vinegar fish is ready.
Zhang Tan took a small piece of fish and tasted it. The juice was thick, the fish was delicate, and it tasted great.
However, I didn't taste the legendary crab flavor.
A dish had just been prepared when there was a knock on the door. It was Su Lan.
"Where's Zhuzhu?" Zhang Tan asked, not seeing Yang Zhu appear.
"She said she had a date with friends, so I asked her to leave first." Su Lan said, "What are you doing? It smells so good."
"Come in, I've just made a dish."
"What kind of dish is it?"
"Come and see for yourself."
"It's West Lake Vinegar Fish! Can you cook this dish?"
“I’ve never done it before, so I’m learning now.”
Su Lan's eyes were bright and she asked, "What else do you want to do? I'll help you."
"Well, let's make two more dishes."
"Let's work hard together."
The two of them were busy in the kitchen, but they didn't feel it was troublesome. Instead, they felt that time flew by.
Su Lan really liked eating West Lake vinegar fish, and she ate most of it.
After dinner, Su Lan took the initiative to wash the dishes this time. Zhang Tan leaned against the kitchen door and said, "Why are you so active this time?"
Last time she cheated and didn't wash the dishes.
"Humph, you go sit in the living room, you'll be fine soon."
Zhang Tan did not go to the living room to sit, but stood at the door of the kitchen and looked at her as she was busy. Who had seen Su Lan cooking and washing dishes in the kitchen?!
"What are you looking at? Go back." Su Lan felt embarrassed and closed the kitchen door. When she heard Zhang Tan smiled and left outside the door, she felt relieved, and the smile on her face disappeared immediately.
By the sink, his brows were knitted together, his face full of confusion.
Zhang Tan turned off the chandelier in the living room and turned on the wall lamp and table lamp, making the room instantly feel much warmer.
After a while, the kitchen door opened and Su Lan came out. She sat on the sofa, hugged the pillow, and watched TV silently.
Neither of them spoke. One was sitting on this end of the sofa and the other was sitting on the other end of the sofa. They were far less close than the last time.
After who knows how long, Zhang Tan took the lead to break the silence, "Let's talk, open-heartedly."
