Love is like a dream

Xiao Zhen: "I want to sleep..."

I simply lifted the quilt: "The sun is drying my ass!"

Xiao Zhen: "Well, let's dry it, it's so warm..."

Me: "If you don't get up again, I'm going to use a trick!"

She opened her eyes and sat up with a swipe: "What are you doing?"

Me: "Hey, you know what my trick is."

She turned over and pressed me down: "I also have a unique skill, do you want me to use it now!"

Me: "No, do you still want to eat fish head with double pepper?"

Xiao Zhen: "Oh, that's right, fish head with double pepper, I want to eat it!"

Me: "Then hurry up!"

Xiao Zhen: "That's it... ah - I slept so comfortably! My little daughter-in-law, come and help me dress this fairy!"

I am coming!"

Life in Taiwan is very convenient. Supermarkets, convenience stores, and vegetable markets are very convenient. We went directly to the supermarket to buy the ingredients and then returned to the hotel. This hotel also has a simple kitchen. The double-pepper fish head is actually not too expensive to make. In time, I cleaned the fish and put it aside, and then I watched Xiao Zhen make sesame oil chicken. I have heard of this dish before, but I have never tried it. The method is not complicated. Saute ginger slices with sesame oil, then put Stir-fry chicken nuggets, then add some rice wine, then stew the soaked shiitake mushrooms together, and season with salt after stewing.

After Xiaozhen stewed the sesame oil chicken, I started to make the fish head with double pepper. First, I cut the fish head from the middle with a knife, then spread it on the plate, and then put a layer of cooking wine and a little salt on the fish. Spread the green and red chopped pepper sauce on the left and right sides of the fish, spread a few pieces of ginger on the fish and the bottom of the plate, and then steam in a pan. After the water boils, steam for about 15 minutes. Pour some hot oil over it, and finally pour over the steamed fish soy sauce, and this fish head with double peppers is ready.

When eating this dish in a Hunan restaurant, noodles are usually spread on the bottom of the plate. We didn’t buy noodles. We bought Taiwan’s specialty rice noodles. They said they were rice noodles, but they were actually vermicelli. Will it work better than noodles.

After making these two dishes, Xiao Zhen made a vegetable salad. Because there is no rice cooker in the hotel, we bought the cooked rice directly in the staple food section of the supermarket. After more than an hour, all the meals were ready. The fish head with double pepper is bright red and green, and the color is bright, and the sesame oil chicken is bright red and fragrant.

Xiao Zhen gave me a piece of chicken: "Taste my cooking!"

I took a bite, the thick sesame oil mixed with the aroma of Xianggu, and the light sweetness of rice wine, the chicken was soft and glutinous, I couldn't help shouting: "It's so delicious! Come and taste my double pepper Fish head!"

Xiao Zhen: "Ah, it looks so tempting! Which side should I eat first!"

She picked up the red side first: "Wow, it's spicy and refreshing!"

I picked up the blue side again: "Wow, this side is more refreshing. It turned out that the red chopped peppers are more mellow, and the green chopped peppers are fresher, but they are both delicious, love it!"

I picked up a wisp of pre-soaked vermicelli from the bottom of the plate: "Come on, can you taste the rice noodles from your hometown?"

Xiao Zhen raised her neck and took the long rice noodles into her mouth: "Ummmmmmmmmmmmmmmm...the taste is different from the noodles. The noodles are chewy, while the rice noodles are soft and elastic. They are also delicious, like the rice noodle soup with double pepper flavor. !"

Me: "If you like it, I will cook more for you in the future, okay?"

Xiao Zhen: "Okay, my daughter-in-law is as virtuous as I am! I am so blessed!"

Me: "Have you noticed anything missing?"

Xiao Zhen: "Small wine."

I took out Erguotou: "Dangdangdang, wine is also available!"

Xiao Zhen: "Oh, I can't do it anymore. I have to drive out in the afternoon. If I get caught, I will be fined."

Me: "Oh yes, almost forgot."

Xiao Zhen: "Stupid Jasmine, eat quickly, it will be cold in a while."

Half an hour later, we had enough to eat and drink, and we sat on the sofa to rest while patting our chubby bellies.

Xiao Zhen: "Little daughter-in-law, what should I do if I feel sleepy after eating?"

Me: "I'm sleepy too, it's such a good day to get sleepy in the afternoon!"

Xiao Zhen: "Come on, come here, let's rest for a while before we start."

Me: "Okay, I have to set a time, otherwise I'm afraid of oversleeping."

I set the alarm clock to 2 o'clock, and then I got into her warm and soft embrace, and fell asleep after a while, and didn't get up together until the alarm rang, changed my clothes, and were ready to go.

The former residence of Zhang Xueliang is in Yangmingshan, Beitou, which is a suburb of Taipei City. It takes about an hour to start from the hotel where we live. Drive up along the winding road of Yangmingshan. The mountains and rivers on both sides are beautiful and the scenery is beautiful. Taiwan’s The leaves will not wither in winter, so the mountain is still green. The former residence of Zhang Xueliang is halfway up the mountain.

I thought it would be a particularly luxurious scenic spot, but when I arrived, I found it was unexpectedly quiet and low-key. An inconspicuous small door was hidden among the green hills and forests. The word "Zen Garden" was written on the door. The listing also marked: the former residence of Marshal Zhang Xueliang.

After entering the door, there are steep wooden steps that wind down. This small courtyard is also built on the mountain, with uneven up and down. Expensive, about a few tens of RMB, continue down the wooden steps, and you will see a small building hidden among lush flowers and trees, which is where Zhang Xueliang was imprisoned. The original bedroom and guest room of the couple have been destroyed. It has been transformed into a restaurant, as well as Xiaoliu Tea Shop and Double Happiness Hot Spring, which have become part of commercial tourist attractions.

The buildings in the small courtyard are mainly made of wood, and the overall architectural style is Japanese. On the outer wall of the restaurant, there are photos of Zhang Xueliang and Jiang Jingguo, as well as a lot of historical materials and pictures. There are also statues in the middle of the courtyard, behind which are It has been transformed into a public restroom. There is a row of old osmanthus trees planted in front of the statue. The courtyard is not big, with green plants and flowers planted in every corner. There is also a small waterfall and pool with fish in it. Swim around.

I wanted to sit and have a cup of tea at Xiaoliu Tea Shop for a while, but the boss told me to make an appointment in advance to get a seat. It feels a little cold without the sun. After all, this is the coldest winter in Taiwan that Xiao Zhen said.

I happened to walk to the hot spring in the courtyard. This hot spring is open to tourists free of charge, but it is just a few narrow canals that have been built. You can only soak your feet, but you can’t soak your body. Tourists in twos and threes took off their shoes Socks, wash your feet by the faucet on the side, and then sit on the wooden chairs on both sides and stretch into the hot spring channel to soak.

Xiao Zhen and I wore hats and masks, and were already armed, so we cleaned our feet, rolled up our trouser legs, sat down next to each other and started soaking. Only after listening to the people who soaked together did we know that the temperatures of these different hot spring channels are different. , from the inside to the outside, the temperature is from low to high, we start soaking from the low temperature, until we change to the outermost canal with the highest temperature, the feet will become red after a while, and the warm heat will spread from the soles of the feet The whole body feels uncomfortable.
