Chapter 1006 Journey Notes French Homestay

If one day you come to France,
If you want to have a wonderful travel time, your choice is not limited to Paris, Marseille or Lyon. Leave aside the urban scenery gathered by those ancient Gothic buildings, forget the worldly glitz of those crowds,
You also have a very different path to choose from.

Because most of the population of the young class flocks to more developed cities, fewer and fewer people stay in remote villages, and the extremely low population results in extremely slow or even stagnant development.
But in contrast, it is also closer to the natural environment and lower housing prices.
Under the government's policies, more foreigners are attracted to settle here and start homestays, injecting vitality into these pastoral villages so that they will not slowly die out.

A village in southeast France, near Geneva,
Maybe it's because it's close to the road to Switzerland, and the population of several thousand is neither too big nor too small.

Many of the small houses with triangular roofs are painted bright golden yellow. There are flower pots at the door. There are not many traces of modernization, and the roads are simple and clear. Standing on the hillside, you can overlook the neat farmland and flower beds.

It took about half an hour to find this village where they had booked a one-night B&B with a special dinner. They jumped off the Humvee and stretched their bodies in the car for a whole day.

In the gorgeous sunset glow, Fangran took a deep breath of the fresh and pleasant-smelling air, and looked at the warm village in front of him in the afterglow of sunset, which had a beauty that was completely opposite to that of Paris.

"Hey~~ Calabash, you chose a good place."

"Hmph, that goes without saying."

I was a little surprised, and had to admit that my school girl is capable in this area, and I just raised my eyebrows and praised,
Fangran immediately saw Tang Bing humming triumphantly as if his little tail was up.

"In this kind of place, it's too easy for the four of us to go in together. I leave it to you to contact and register. We will park the car and meet you later."

He didn't get out of the car with the two of them. Osphia in the driver's seat didn't speak casually. He was also still in the car. Kerim also looked at them and chuckled:

"Then Fangran, Tang Bing, please forgive me."

"Don't worry, leave it to me!"

Knowing that in this small village, Osfia and Kerim would be more eye-catching with their appearance, Fangran took the task very confidently,

Just looking at him patting his chest, Tang Bing on the side silently complained:
"Senior, you, a foreigner who doesn't know a word of French, where did you get your confidence?"

"Ruluse (expressionless)."

There were no twists and turns at all. In the countryside where it took less than an hour to walk from one end to the other, Fangran and Tang Bing found the homestay they had booked directly on the hillside.
This is probably the best location in the whole village, two large houses connected together, with well-tended gardens around the yard,
The owner of the house is a very kind old couple. They came here from Germany to settle down for the elderly. They obviously don’t care about the success of the business. They just find something to do in their spare time, so they run another idle house into a small family. Small homestay.

Standing on the hillside and looking at the sunset in the village, the breeze blows the tips of the hair, the task is about to be completed, and the mood is unbelievably relaxed and happy at this moment,

"Have you confirmed everything?"

Seeing Tang Bing's appearance that was very attractive to the elderly, and his high social skills, he negotiated the accommodation matters. Fangran saw her happily waving with him at the end and asked curiously:
"And gourd, what are you talking about with others, you are as happy as a flower."

"Senior, let me tell you, that old couple are super nice! Not only will we prepare special dishes here for dinner, but the ingredients in the kitchen are also free to use!"

Hearing Fangran's question, Tang Bing spoke to him excitedly and happily, then put his hands on his face and smiled embarrassedly:

"And just now people said 'what a beautiful and cheerful foreign girl', hehehe~"

"No, I think that should just be a polite remark."

"Senior, shut up (with a blank face)."

Facing the spacious garden, the slightly renovated living room has a whole row of glass doors, allowing people to look into the distance from the room with a wide view.
In the center of the yard surrounded by flower pots, there is a large wooden table that looks like a tree trunk cut in half.
Although it is not as good as the business hotel they stayed in the [-]th district of Paris before, the small homestay reveals it everywhere,

- Love life.

"It's a beautiful place. It seems that there is a very good owner here."

Following Osfiya from an unobtrusive direction, Kerim took a look at the B&B and the scene of the river flowing in the distance under the hillside and smiled lightly.
"There are still more than three hours, what to do next?"

"what"

Asked by Osfiya's blue eyes, Fangran didn't know how to arrange the elongated voice for a while, but Tang Bing on the side happily proposed:

"Cook! Cook! Let's make something ourselves!"

prepare dinner
Seeing her refreshed appearance, the three of them remembered that according to the normal situation, it was already time for dinner.

But hearing her mention this, Osphia's blue eyes flickered slightly, and Kerim showed a somewhat helpless wry smile and said:

"It's embarrassing to say that, but if it's just a sandwich, I'll make it."

And perfectly using his extra observation skills in extra places, he instantly discovered the fact that the former noble lady who lived a high life, and the super genius who estimated that all his time was spent on scientific research and experiments can't cook,

Fangran raised the corners of his mouth and thrust his chest out fiercely. When Tang Bing seemed to realize that Osfiya and Kerim couldn't cook and looked at him,
Let out a cry of finally winning, a confident smile belonging to the strong:

"I can fry ham sausage."

"(╬°Д°) Shut up! Senpai, you idiot!"

In just a few days of getting along, Fangran has already discovered that while Fangran is hopelessly useless in some places, he also has a mysterious self-confidence.

Tang Bing felt that he was a fool for looking at him with hope.

In view of the fact that there are four people in the team, two of them live in the upper class who do not need to cook by themselves at all, so the division of labor arrangement for preparing dinner in the end,

Tang Bing (and a basically useless Fangran) were also in charge of cooking, and Osfia and Kerim were in charge of shopping.

"Gourd! What shall we do first!?"

In the kitchen, looking at the many vegetables and ingredients in the refrigerator, Fangran's eyes lit up with the light of a big meal.
Fasten the apron, tie up the ponytail again, the movements are skillful and simple, the figure of the young girl standing in the kitchen is a little brighter for some reason, hearing him say this, she can't help but roll her eyes speechlessly:

"Senior, you are a guy who only knows how to fry ham sausages, so don't ask about such critical decisions, just wash the vegetables first."

"Hmph, washing vegetables, someone like me who used to manipulate water elements to set off the entire ocean"

"Don't be a second grader, wash it quickly."

"Oh."

Lettuce, cucumbers, tomatoes, small tomatoes, and a few cherries, strictly following the instructions of his junior, holding a pile of ingredients in a metal bowl, humming the old melody and earnestly doing the big business of washing vegetables.

While holding a kitchen knife on the other side, he chopped all kinds of meat and vegetables on the cutting board with a clear and continuous sound, showing quite good cooking skills with light movements.
In the gap between skillfully lighting the fire and pouring oil, Tang Bing couldn't help sneaking a sneak peek at Fangran beside him, and found that he was working hard on him, always feeling like living together, his face flushed slightly.

"Hey senior, I didn't expect you to be working hard."

I don't know why the social skills failed at this time. Tang Bing glanced at it constantly, and finally changed to this kind of ridicule topic for some reason.
Instead of paying too much attention to it, Fangran just rolled his eyes as usual:
"Otherwise, Hulu, do you think I should be lazy?"

"No, I just thought you were a senior. You must be disappointed that you didn't go shopping with Osfia."

After pouring the chopped ingredients into the pot, Tang Bing murmured and turned his head away, whispering secretly while stirring:
"After all, a little boy like you, senior, must want to be alone with that kind of foreign beauty, and then in a beautiful village in France, when no one is paying attention, something will happen like dribbling with a ball."

Fangran silently took out the paper fan.

"Hey! Senior, what do you want to do with that thing!"

The moment Tang Bing took out the pair of gourd treasures, Tang Bing, who was still muttering quietly a second ago, immediately jumped aside vigilantly, holding his head,
Speechlessly looking at a gourd who was not paying attention and wanted to drive secretly, Fangran silently stared at her for three seconds.

Then he sighed vicissitudes of life, as if lamenting that life is just like looking at the sky at first sight:

"Hulu, you know, I feel more and more now that you are simply a prickly person."

Hearing Fangran describe himself like this, Tang Bing, who still held his head and did not relax his vigilance, took his words and blinked happily guessing:
"Rose?"

"No, cucumber."

(_╬) Tang Bing: "."

Silently picking up a cucumber from his washed dishes, Tang Bing stared expressionlessly at Fangran's expressionless words:
"Senior, I'll give you three seconds to give you an explanation so that I don't beat you to death."

"It looks like a water spirit, but it's actually dirty."

"Yellow-melon-broken-skull-kill!"

　This adventure in a foreign country has too many waves and urgency, and there is no rest and relaxation, so now I want to write about these plain, event-free trips to make up for what he lacks in this adventure. These characters are pure and simple. Playing around, having fun,
