“...... The grilled lamb chops here taste good, and my wife and I have bad teeth, so I have to order that from time to time when I come to his shop. ”

The restaurateur was talking about the dishes in the store, holding chopsticks on the side, picking up a bone on the plate, and the old lady Aunt Zhu, who was gnawing, raised her head and interjected,

The face with age spots is smiling, and there are some meat residues in the exposed mouth and between the teeth.

Glancing at the old lady, Lian Ge turned his gaze back,

"Let's have a grilled lamb chop. ”

In a calm tone, Lian Ge said,

“...... Okay, a grilled lamb chop...... You're going to have something else, boy. ”

The restaurateur had a smile on his face, and his face was in the incandescent light, contrasting with the oil,

"What else. ”

"And stick bone broth ......"

The restaurateur smiled and read again,

"Again, stick bone soup, braised pork ribs, roast lamb scorpion. Lian Ge glanced at the restaurateur and said in a calm tone,

"This ......"

The restaurateur showed hesitation on his face, followed by a smile on his face, and said,

“...... Young man, just the two of you, I'm afraid you won't be able to eat so much, so you need a little more,"

“...... Yes, young man, the amount of this dish in their house is really large, the two of you, just order a roast lamb chop, and a soup is enough. ”

The old lady on the side also smiled and said loudly,

"Just as I said. Lian Ge looked at the restaurant owner again and said loudly,

“...... Okay, that young man, you wait a minute, and I'll bring it to you when it's ready. ”

The restaurateur responded with a smile on his face, turned around again, and walked to the back kitchen.

“...... Young man, you have ordered too much of this dish. ”

On the side, the old lady was still shaking her head, talking, and while talking, she picked up the bone in her hand and gnawed it.

......

“...... Lian Ge, isn't it ......"

On the side, Gu Xiaoying sat beside Lian Ge, looked at the restaurant, turned her head to look at Lian Ge, and stopped talking a little.

Turning his gaze and looking at Gu Xiaoying, Lian Ge didn't answer, just shook Gu Xiaoying's hand, then turned his gaze and looked at the restaurant,

Seeing this, Gu Xiaoying didn't ask any more questions, just followed Lian Ge's gaze and looked at the restaurant,

On Lian Ge's shoulder, the mouse also turned his head and looked,

......

In the restaurant, it is lively, and there are tables of customers sitting around round tables, who are feasting, or holding bones, eating and talking.

Or holding a beer glass, shouting, in front of the dish, holding the bones that have been gnawed and still have some flesh left, or a few alone, sitting in the corners, holding the bones, tearing, tearing off pieces of roasted or stewed meat, and stuffing them into their stomachs,

“...... I've eaten so many times, but it's still the right taste for Lao An's bones here...... Come on, let's go again. ”

“...... I said it tastes good......"

Inside the restaurant, it seems to be a little closed, only the door is open, and the wooden windows covered with newspaper paste on all sides do not let in the light, and there seems to be no sound.

The noisy, lively voices echoed in the incandescent light.

Inside, there is a door to the back kitchen, which is covered with a grease-stained sheet, obscuring the view and the incandescent lights from the ceiling of the lobby.

......

Looking at the door leading to the back kitchen again, Lian Ge turned his gaze back,

looked at the table, the old lady Aunt Zhu, who was gnawing on the bones,

It seems that the teeth are not good, and the old lady holds the bone and tears it with some effort, and her wrinkled face is more and more squeezed out of the ravines.

"Old ladies often come to this shop?"

Looking at the old lady, Lian Ge asked calmly,

Hearing the voice, the old lady paused, then put down the bone, took it in her hand, and raised her head,

“...... My wife lives near here, and when the family doesn't want to cook, I come here for a meal. I used to be Lao An, and when his father was driving, I often came.

Now that he has changed to open it, his craftsmanship is better than his father's, so he comes more often...... It's in his shop, now it's all meat, bones, old woman, I'm old, my stomach is not good, it's greasy and indigestible to eat, every time I come back, I can only ...... a little."

The old lady smiled and responded, and as she spoke, she picked up the bone in her hand again, stuffed it into her mouth, and tore off some of the remaining flesh on the bone.

“...... But ah, the dishes in his store are real, I'll just order one dish, you see there are so many, I can't finish the old woman's food...... Young man, you have ordered too many dishes,"

As she spoke, the old lady tore off the bones in her hand and put them on the plate next to her.

“...... Speaking of which, he's also a miserable man......"

......

“...... Lao An, Lao An, someone is here again, why don't you come out and say hello quickly......"

While the old lady was talking, outside the restaurant, a few middle-aged men walked in,

A few people at the table on the side, laughing, helped shout into the kitchen,

“...... Lao An, my brothers are here to take care of your business again, why don't you come out yet?

One of the several middle-aged men who came in also laughed and shouted,

"Coming, coming......"

In the back kitchen, the voice of the restaurateur sounded, and then the oil-stained sheets hanging on the door were lifted.

Through the door of the sheets, the back kitchen was even darker, only a dim incandescent lamp hung on the top of the back kitchen, emitting some light.

The restaurateur wiped his sweat and hurried out of the back kitchen again, and the sheets that had been lifted up fell again, blocking the view and the light that came in from the lobby.

“...... Brother Ai, Brother Ai is sitting here, ......."

The restaurant owner smiled on his face, ran to the door of the restaurant, and greeted several middle-aged men who entered the restaurant.

“...... Lao An, this business is so good today. ”

Several middle-aged men laughed, and one of them looked at the restaurant and said,

“...... What were you rubbing in the kitchen just now, aren't you stealing food, ah, Lao An,"

As he spoke, the middle-aged man smiled and reached out to pat the restaurateur's stomach,

“...... Look at your belly, this face, but it's getting more and more meaty, it's much more blessed than when you just took your father's class, so you can't eat less. ”

The restaurant owner also smiled on his face, looked at these middle-aged men, and then looked at the stomachs of these middle-aged men.

“...... Hey, look at this Lao An, his eyes are just saying that our belly is bigger than him...... Lao An, the meat on our belly is not something you can raise. ”

The middle-aged man smiled and said,

“...... Lao An, I ate that roasted tendon last time. ”

"Also, keep it for you...... Sit here, sit here, and I'll bring it to you later. ”

The restaurant owner smiled, stretched out his hand, grabbed the middle-aged man's arm, and walked towards a round table next to him.

“...... You say this old An,"

The middle-aged man was dragged and walked along, with a smile on his face,

......

“...... When he was young, his mother ran away with a wild man. ”

The old lady at the round table raised her head and looked at the door of the restaurant, and when a few people walked into the restaurant, she continued what she had just said.

"He and his father are left, the two of them depend on each other, and his father is also working hard, he runs this restaurant alone, provides him with food, clothing and reading, and is a father and a mother......"

With the old lady's words, on the other side of the restaurant, the restaurant owner took the middle-aged men to a round table and sat down, smiled again, turned around, lifted the sheets in front of the back kitchen, and walked in.

The sheets fell, blocking the view and the incandescent light in the lobby.
