Chapter 339 Returning to the Friendship of the Past
On October 10, the revised dignity preservation order was made public. The order was made public at 28 a.m., and at a.m., Zhao Yuxi sent a message to Xu Yingze, telling her the content of the new law and inviting her and Mu Zhengguang to her home for lunch at noon.
Xu Ying didn't really want to go. She had asked for leave on the day the old law was made public, and she had to ask for leave again on the day the new law was made public. Her classmates might think that the dignity order had something to do with her.
However, on the day the old law was made public, she and Zhao Yuxi had a disagreement. On the day the new law was made public, she thought it was necessary for her to resolve the disagreement with Zhao Yuxi. She told her classmates about this, and her classmates also supported her to meet Zhao Yuxi today.
At 8 o'clock, the press conference was held on time. After watching the live broadcast, Zhao Yuxi and Gu Tingzhou immediately rushed to the supermarket and bought fresh beef, mutton, chicken, fish, shrimp, ribs and a variety of fruits and vegetables. After that, the two were busy in the kitchen.
Zhao Yuxi washed the fruits and vegetables. She saw Gu Tingzhu using a very sharp kitchen knife to cut the fish into fillets. This kitchen knife was made by the way when he was making the long sword. The materials used were the materials that he wanted to use to make a sharp sword at the beginning. Later, these materials were not used to make swords, but were made into kitchen utensils.
Zhao Yuxi cut the pineapple into pieces, poked a piece of pineapple with chopsticks, and fed it to Gu Tingzhou who was cutting fish.
Gu Tingzhu saw her holding out the chopsticks and immediately stopped what he was doing. The pineapple blocked his vision, and eating pineapple would distract him. In this case, cutting fish would not only be too inefficient, but it would also cut his hand. He did not deploy the asymptotic domain, and if he was cut by the knife, he would definitely bleed. Bleeding is a small matter. After deploying the asymptotic domain, this small injury will heal in no time, but Zhao Yuxi will be worried, this is a big deal.
After eating the pineapple, they were busy preparing the food. Zhao Yuxi cut some red dragon fruit and threw it into the juicer. Gu Tingzhuo cut the beef into thin slices that were transparent.
Midway through, Zhao Yuxi received a voice call from the dean.
"You go ahead and do your work. Zhou Xutong called. I'll go answer his call."
"it is good."
Zhao Yuxi left the kitchen, walked into the living room, and clicked to answer the call.
"President Zhao Yuxi, you have revised the dignity maintenance order." Zhou Xutong did not expect that Zhao Yuxi would make such a big adjustment to the dignity maintenance order in such a short time: she did not implement the decree for one month as originally planned, but only implemented it for twelve days and then canceled the immediate execution.
Judging from Zhao Yunxi's style of doing things, Zhou Xutong had reason to guess that no one would be executed for violating the Dignity Order. If there was such a person, she would definitely make a big fuss and announce it to the world. He admired Zhao Yunxi very much, admired her courage to try and make mistakes, and even more admired her courage to correct her mistakes.
"Yes, I revised it. The original decree was too strict and not suitable for this era. The new decree is much better. Dean, you called me, is there anything else?"
"No, I just came to ask about the law. It's a good thing that you can change the law."
"Yeah, I think so too."
Zhao Yuxi hung up the phone, threw the phone in the living room, and returned to the kitchen.
"Did the dean call to ask about the dean?" Gu Tingzhou had a good impression of the dean. After receiving the two blue diamonds, his evaluation of the dean was raised to a higher level. He tied the blue diamonds with a black cowhide rope to make a pendant and hung it around his neck. However, the pendant was too big and too heavy, so it was best to take it off before going to bed, otherwise it might affect sleep.
"Yes. He was concerned about the law I wrote. He said it was a good thing that I changed it."
"Of course it's a good thing. After the law is amended, no one will be executed for this."
"It is indeed a good thing. It is precisely because of the good thing that I dare to invite Xu Yingze to the dinner. Last time she asked me for help, she wanted me to help her find someone who can see dreams, but after she read the decree, she no longer asked me for help. If I don't amend the decree, my friendship with her will end here."
"Yes, amending the law can not only help others, but also help ourselves." "You have already cut the meat, why don't you watch some TV and take a rest? I'll make some soup, pork rib soup and fish soup. These two soups are essential for the hot pot at noon."
"No, I want to watch you stew the soup here."
"it is good."
Zhao Yuxi blanched the ribs, poured them into a casserole, and added enough boiling water. Then she fried the chicken, poured it into the casserole, and stewed it with the ribs.
When Zhao Yuxi was shopping for groceries, she told him about her new idea, and he raised questions at that time because he had never seen ribs and chicken stewed together. This was also the first time Zhao Yuxi tried to stew such a soup.
Gu Tingzhu asked her why she did this, and her reason was, "Xu Yingze was not polite to me, so I just asked her to try the pork ribs and chicken soup. If it tastes good, that's great. If it doesn't taste good, just take it as a small punishment."
Gu Tingzhou knew that Zhao Yuxi had no intention of revenge, and the punishment she mentioned was just a joke. Not to mention that the soup was finished, and Xu Yingze was not the only one who wanted to drink the soup. There were two soups at the lunch party, one was pork ribs and chicken soup, and the other was fish soup. Xu Yingze didn't like pork ribs soup, so he could drink fish soup. The so-called punishment was not valid at all.
"The pork rib soup needs to be stewed for an hour. During this time, we can peel the shrimp. After peeling the shrimp, we can fry the fish and stew the fish soup."
"it is good."
It was almost noon when Zhao Yuxi heard a knock on the door. She thought the two men had come at just the right time, neither too early nor too late. The pork rib soup and fish soup had been cooked, the shrimps had been shelled, and the meat that needed to be marinated had also been marinated.
The door opened, and Xu Ying held the flower pot in her left hand and raised her right hand to greet Zhao Yuxi: "Sister Zhao Yuxi, this pot of flowers is for you."
In November, the gardenia has not yet bloomed. But if the pot of flowers can survive until next summer, it will probably bloom, at least that's what the florist said.
Xu Ying thought of sending flowers mainly because of Lu Xiangyu. Lu Xiangyu bought a lot of flower trees and planted them in the field. This behavior gave her some ideas. The last time she came to see Zhao Yuxi, the two parted unhappily. This time Zhao Yuxi invited her to dinner, and she wanted to give a gift. Giving this gift would help resolve the differences.
Zhao Yuxi took the flowerpot with both hands. Not long ago, Zhang Haochen gave her an orange tree. This orange tree has a lot of meaning, and the person who gave her the tree also has a lot of meaning. But many of these meanings do not include friendship, and she has not even seen the possibility of becoming friends with Zhang Haochen. The tree given by Xu Ying also has a lot of meaning. It is proof that their relationship has been reconciled and that the possibility of them becoming friends is not zero.
"Thank you."
"You're welcome. It's just an ordinary tree."
"You two, stop standing at the door and come in quickly. Lunch is ready. I'll take the flowers to the balcony and we can eat. Gu Tingzhou, go get the bowls and chopsticks."
Gu Tingzhou was sitting in the living room watching TV. When the two finished their work in the kitchen, Zhao Yuxi sat on the sofa, put on headphones, and checked the work report. He also sat on the sofa and watched TV.
Gu Tingzhou paused the TV immediately after hearing what Zhao Yuxi said. He went to the kitchen, took out the bowls and chopsticks, and brought two pots of soup to the dining table. The fish, shrimp, beef, mutton and various vegetables for the hot pot were placed next to the soup pot.
After Zhao Yuxi sent the flowers to the balcony, she returned to the living room and invited the two people to the dining room, where the four of them had lunch together.
