Chapter 392: Buying Steamed Buns
“...... Dad, what are you doing eating steamed buns, there are so many dishes in this store. ”
Some grumbling voices sounded at the table next to them, and fell again,
The dining table next to it is a little quiet,
Looking out the window again, Lian Ge turned his gaze and looked at the dining table next to him, the two people who had just entered the restaurant,
The one holding the menu was a middle-aged man, and there seemed to be some complaints on his face.
Sitting beside him was an old man,
The old man's somewhat loose skin looked a little dark, his hair was gray, and his calloused hands were placed on the dining table, as if he was at a loss.
The cloudy eyes were a little trance-like, distracted, just looked at his son in a daze, with his mouth open,
"Manju ......"
Muttered, the old man repeated,
"Dad, let's not eat steamed buns, there are so many dishes in this restaurant, can you choose two dishes that you like to eat?"
The middle-aged man looked at his father, bent down, and put the menu on the table in front of his father.
"I'll read the names of these dishes to Dad, and if you see what you want to eat, Dad, you just nod, okay...... Lychee meat, this one is sweet and sour...... There is also this roasted tofu, Dad, you are old, your teeth are not good, and it is not bad to eat this...... And stewed chicken soup ......"
The middle-aged man bent down and held the menu, one dish at a time, and said,
The old man looked at his son, then at the menu, and slowly lowered his head,
“...... No, you have to eat steamed buns...... You can only eat steamed buns. ”
"Dad...... You have bad teeth. The doctor said that your stomach is not very good, let's eat something else. Can you just listen to me?"
The middle-aged man took the menu, shouted, and said,
The old man didn't answer again, but buried his head down, lower.
“...... Is there any soup suitable for the elderly?" the middle-aged man looked at his father again, turned his head, looked at the waiter and asked,
"Ball soup, stewed chicken soup, and hoof flower soup are all more suitable for the elderly. The waiter took the order menu and answered,
"Then let's have a hoof flower soup and a round soup. The middle-aged man said, turning his head back and looking at his father,
Seeing that his father was buried in his head, silent, and still a little confused in his hands, the middle-aged man hesitated on his face, turned his head again, and looked at the waiter,
"Do you have any steamed buns here?"
"I'm really sorry, sir, you came here earlier, but it's really gone now. ”
The waiter shook his head, said something to the middle-aged man, turned his head again, and looked at the old man with his head buried,
“...... Old man, there are no steamed buns in the store, you can listen to your son, can you eat something else?"
When the old man heard the sound, he slowly raised his head, his eyes were in a trance, he turned his head, looked at his son, and buried his head again.
On the side, the middle-aged man looked at his father, was silent, then turned his head and looked at the waiter,
“...... Then I bothered to ask, is there any place around where you can sell steamed buns?"
"From this street, there is a shop selling steamed buns at the corner of that street, but at this moment, I guess it's about to close. The waiter looked outside the restaurant, turned back to the middle-aged man and said,
"Thank you. The middle-aged man thanked him and stood up,
"I'm sorry you can take care of my father for me, and I'll go buy some steamed buns. ”
"Okay. Look, you just got two soups, do you want more?"
"Let's go up. ”
The middle-aged man nodded, lowered his head again, looked at his father who was buried in his head, and said,
“...... Dad, then you sit here for a while, and I'll buy you steamed buns. ”
As he spoke, the middle-aged man turned around and prepared to walk towards the outside of the restaurant.
The old man, on the other hand, raised his head, looked at his son in a daze, stretched out his hand, and grabbed his son's shirt.
"Dad......" The middle-aged man turned around again, "Dad, I'll buy you steamed buns, you just sit here for a while, and I'll be back soon." ”
The old man listened to the middle-aged man's words, looked at the middle-aged man in a daze, and slowly let go of the hand holding the middle-aged man's clothes.
“...... Dad, just sit here, I'll be right back. ”
The middle-aged man said again, raised his head again, and looked at the waiter,
"I'm tired. ”
"You're welcome. ”
The middle-aged man turned around and walked briskly towards the outside of the restaurant, the street entrance,
The old man sat on the seat, turned his head, his eyes were in a trance, and he watched his son walk away in a daze, until the middle-aged man disappeared from sight, and then slowly lowered his head.
......
"Old man, you drink saliva first and sit here for a while. ”
The waiter said to the old man, and then walked away again, busy.
The old man sat in his chair, his head buried in his head, and seemed a little uneasy, and from time to time he raised his head again and watched in a daze as his son disappeared from sight.
......
“...... Young man, this is your lychee meat. ”
The waiter walked out of the kitchen with a dish of dishes and a bowl of soup,
put the dish in front of Lian Ge, turned around again, and put the bowl of soup on the dining table next to him, in front of the old man,
“...... Old man, this is the soup your son ordered for you, why don't you drink a bowl of it first and start it with an appetizer? ”
The waiter put down the soup, looked at the old man, and greeted,
Hearing this, the old man slowly raised his head, his eyes were in a trance, he looked at the waiter, then slowly turned his head, and looked out of the restaurant in a daze.
Seeing this, the waiter couldn't help but turn his head and look outside the restaurant.
......
The old man's son, the middle-aged man panted, carried a bag of steamed buns, and ran back again,
Wiping the sweat from his forehead, the middle-aged man walked back to the dining table,
“...... Dad, this is the steamed bun you want. ”
Panting and wiping his sweat again, the middle-aged man put the bag containing steamed buns on the dining table,
"This steamed bun is a little cold, let's eat it with soup for a while. ”
As the middle-aged man spoke, he untied the bag containing the steamed buns,
The old man looked at his son in a daze, and then reached out to hold his son's clothes, but he didn't look at the steamed bun.
"Dad, it's okay, I'm here. ”
The middle-aged man said with a smile to his father, sat down at the table again,
The old man looked at his son in a daze, first slowly loosened the placket of his tightly held clothes, and then raised his hand a little bit, and wiped the sweat on his son's forehead with his cuffs.
"It's okay, the sweat will dry in a while. ”
The middle-aged man smiled and said to his father,
"Let's eat first. ”
Hearing the sound, the old man slowly put down his hand, turned his head again, looked at the bag of steamed buns, stretched out his hand, grabbed a steamed bun, put it in his mouth, and nibbled on it one by one.
“...... Dad, you eat slowly, drink soup, don't just eat steamed buns, don't choke for a while. ”
Stretching out his hand, the middle-aged man took the bowl in front of the old man, took the soup spoon, filled the bowl of soup, and put it in front of the old man.
When the old man heard the sound, he still lowered his head, was silent, took the steamed bun, and ate it in one bite.
“...... It's coming, it's coming, the dish is coming. ”
The waiter took the dishes again and walked out of the kitchen.
......
“...... Young man, you're ready, do you think I need to get you some food?" asked the waiter, putting the dish down.
"I'm tired. Nodding, Lian Ge responded.
"Then wait a minute, I'll get you some food. ”
The waiter said and walked away quickly.
Turning his gaze, Lian Ge looked at the table next to him again.
......
"Dad, you eat slowly, don't just eat steamed buns, eat something else, this dish is good, and the stew is relatively bad. ”
“...... Steamed bread, you have to eat steamed bread, you can only eat steamed bread......"
