Xin Wenfang didn't come back at noon, so she fried snails with fragrant fragrance, and her grandmother cooked a bowl of green vegetable soup with only a little salt, and the four members of the Xin family ate breakfast and lunch with satisfaction.

At the dinner table, Xin Andong's stir-fried snails were very popular, and the sea bowl was filled with one bowl after another, if it weren't for grandma who stopped her and said that she couldn't eat more of this thing, grandpa and stupid dad could kill another bowl.

After eating, Xin Andong helped wash the dishes, and grandparents dried beans in the yard.

After washing the dishes, Xin Andong found a basin printed with red peonies from home, put all the remaining screws in the pot into it, and then found a piece of white gauze to cover it, tied it in a circle with a rope, and then came out with the basin.

He called Silly Dad and said to his grandparents who were drying beans, "Grandma, I'll go out with Dad." ”

Grandma raised her head, "What are you doing, still holding a basin?

Xin Andong was worried that he couldn't find an excuse, but after listening to his grandmother's words, he immediately nodded, "Yes, grandma, my snail roast is delicious, and the crayfish roast is also good. ”

"Where are you going, it's so far, your body is not good yet, can't you go out to play when you're ready?" Grandma was a little worried.

"It's okay, I'm bored at home every day, you just let me go out for a walk, I promise to go out and come back." ”

The grandson talked about this, how could Grandma Xin disagree, she took him a small coat from the house, and instructed, "Don't go too far, look at your father, if there are women coming up, just drive them away, you know?" The son-in-law is too handsome, and it is also a trouble.

Xin Andong smiled and nodded, "Don't worry, my dad can't lose it." ”

The stupid father took the basin in his hand relentlessly, and wanted Xin Andong to ride on his shoulder, Xin Andong refused with a sweat, and the stupid father showed a pity on his face, and finally retreated and took his son's soft little hand and left.

From the village to the county seat, Xin Andong was weak, and the two stopped while walking, afraid that they would not be able to catch up with the meals of the people in the county, so he took the initiative to ask his stupid father to hold him for a ride.

The stupid father was very happy, holding his son in one hand and the basin dyed with red peonies in the other, two similar and good-looking faces, one large and one small, attracted pedestrians on the same road to the county town to point from time to time.

Xin Andong pursed his lips and his little face was cold all the way, and the stupid father followed his son without smiling, but those little daughters-in-law blushed.

Finally, about half an hour later, the two walked to the county seat.

This is the first time that Xin Andong has not seen Qingshui County from the memory of the original owner, but really seen Qingshui County with his eyes, to be honest, the current county seat is like a gray curtain, mottled walls, not spacious and smooth streets, scattered shops on the side of the road, and the appearance of the prosperous county town in his imagination is 108,000 miles away.

"Dad, it's here, you put me down. ”

I don't have a watch, so I don't know the specific time, but Xin Andong was lucky, and when he saw a group of people walking or flamboyantly riding bicycles and wearing navy blue overalls not far away, he knew that it was probably the time when the workers got off work at noon.

It's a good time to catch up!

Found a clean roadside against the corner, he asked his father to hurriedly put down the basin in his hand, the stupid father did so, Xin Andong opened the white gauze blocking the basin, and suddenly, the spicy smell of stir-fried screws filled the air, and the spicy smell that made people saliva gushing was too tempting.

As soon as the gauze was uncovered, Xin Andong stirred a few times in the basin with a spoon to make the taste more open, and someone stepped forward to ask.

"Kid, are you here to sell this screw?"

Standing in front of Xin Andong and asking, it was a young man in navy blue overalls, he was carrying a white porcelain jar in his hand, his eyes were burning at the basin in front of Xin Andong that contained fried screws, and he swallowed his saliva and asked.

The customer is God, treat God, Xin Andong threw the so-called cold to the sky early, he looked good, grinning was particularly pleasing, he replied to the youth, "Brother, do you want to buy my screws? These are all fished by my father in the river three days ago, the river water in our village is very clear, and the snails are fresh and delicious." ”

"It's all screws, who hasn't eaten it yet. The young man replied unconcernedly, but his nose couldn't help but move.

At this time, a few more people came, and some workers were also pedestrians passing by to see the excitement or smell the fragrance, and everyone was surprised that a middle-aged man and a white and clean young man came out to sell screws.

The stupid dad is handsome, but the stupidity in his eyes makes people guess that he is mentally incompetent at a glance.

Xin Andong was not stage frightened at all, his voice was neither high nor low, and he replied seriously, "Anyone can do fried screws, but you should smell my screws, the fragrance is different from what other people generally do. ”

"No money, such a good thing?"

"Kid, you're not lying, are you?"

"Since you don't need money, it's okay to try it. ”

Xin Andong smiled, "I really don't need money, but if you think it's delicious and willing to buy it, of course you will collect money, after all, doing business, this screw is time-consuming and laborious, my father and I walked half an hour from the village to the county seat, the screw doesn't cost money, we will make a fortune." ”

scooped a spoonful of screws for people to taste for free, and Xin Andong did not have a reluctant look on his face.

Everyone, you and I pinch the screws one by one and put them in your mouth to suck, and as soon as the thing is in your mouth, you will taste it if it is delicious or not, and everyone's expressions are the most intuitive.

"Don't say it, this screw tastes really good, and there is a lot of oil, but it's better than the one my mother fried!"

"The taste of this juice is fresh, numb and spicy, and it tastes good, I don't know how this kid grows it!"

"Little brother, I like this screw, it's good to buy it home and eat it at home, you can give me a spoonful, hey, by the way, how much is a spoonful?"

As long as they have tasted the screws, most people are ready to pay for it, and they have handed the white porcelain jar, aluminum and basin to Xin Andong, the first person to stretch out the white porcelain jar is the first person to get out of the car and ask, he just asked how much, everyone found out that they were ready to buy without asking the price.

If it's expensive, no matter how delicious this screw is, it's reluctant.

How could Xin Andong not understand everyone's thoughts, and replied with a smile, "It's not expensive, six cents a spoonful, two spoonfuls and a dime, who will come first?"

He scooped a sharp screw, and the shiny and fragrant screw drew a sharp index finger.

Five cents, a vegetable cake is still five cents, besides, this screw is so delicious, people have to swallow their tongues, looking at the oily layer on it, you know that the seller is not less willing to put oil, five cents is really not expensive, and buying it home is also a meal, isn't it?

"I'm coming!" The young man who was the first to ask handed over a 1 dime paper ticket, and couldn't wait to stretch out the white porcelain jar to Xin Andong, "Give me two spoonfuls and more soup!"

Xin Andong pursed his lips and smiled, put a large spoon into his white porcelain jar, and asked his stupid father to collect the money.

The others also hurriedly spoke, and there were many screws in the basin, but there were so many people in a circle, and it would be gone when it was not guaranteed, so of course they had to grab it as soon as possible.

"Kid, I also want two spoonfuls of chili peppers!"

"I'll have a little more, four spoons, under the pot, to taste!"

The fragrance of the screws spread far away, and the people passing by saw a group crowded in front of them, some of them wanted to see the excitement, and some of them were hooked out of the gluttony, and they flocked to Xin Andong's humble stall.

The stupid father collected the money with an ignorant face, and Xin Andong quickly served it, around a pot of fried screws, and the two were busy.

A black big-headed sedan passed by, Zhao Chongming saw that there was a congestion in front of him, and many people were crowded to get out of the way, he stepped on the brakes and turned around, "Secretary, the front is blocked, I'll go down and take a look." ”

"Yes. Sitting in the back of the car was a man in a gray tunic with an orange folder on his lap and his head unraised on official business, making it difficult to see his appearance.

The young man in the coffee-colored striped suspenders next to him was playing football boredly, and when he heard the driver's words, he immediately became interested, "Uncle Zhao wait for me, I'll get out of the car with you!"

He pushed the door open and jumped off with a sharp slight.

I was bored to death in the car, and my cousin didn't say three words to him along the way, either yes or hum, he was obviously twenty-nine years old, and he lived like an old man who was about to die.

Zhao Chongming couldn't stop this wayward lord, and the person who could control him didn't speak, so he had to follow the young man who was blindly rushing forward and protect him tightly, "Zhenghao, slow down, don't fall." ”

"Uncle Zhao, you are so funny, I can't fall on so many step railings on the road abroad, just on the rocky land at home, I can still trip my right foot with my left foot...... Ahh

Sometimes, the words can't be too full, the young man's arrogant words haven't been finished, he really tripped his left foot and his right foot and fell a big heel, and the person pounced on the front, Zhao Chongming didn't hold him, so that there was a small puddle in front of him, and his whole person just pounced in front of the big peony basin with screws in Xin Andong's house.

A person rushed under his feet, Xin Andong was stunned, "...... How many spoonfuls do you want?"

"What spoonfuls, skew, hurt, hurt!"

Oh, it turned out that he didn't buy screws, Xin Andong didn't care about him anymore, and continued to serve screws to the guests, his portion was very good, the guests didn't say that there was a shortage of catties or two, but the screws tasted too good, and even some people who were standing just bought them and started eating, and the others who didn't buy them saw that there were fewer and fewer in the basin, and they were more anxious to move forward.

Tong Zhenghao stood up with grinning teeth, and his palms were rubbed with blood from stones.

Zhao Chongming squeezed into the crowd with a lot of energy, and saw that he had nothing to do except for two dirty knees and broken hands, so he put his mind at ease and said helplessly, "Let you be careful, the roads in the county are potholes, and children like you who don't look at the road are the most likely to fall." ”

"How did I know that China is so poor, I would not come back if I knew it, even if I ate hamburgers and steaks over there, it is better than just returning to China and falling on my heels, it hurts me to death, Uncle Zhao, grandpa promised to buy me braised pig's trotters from a state-run restaurant today, right?" Tong Zhenghao asked, if it weren't for the fact that the things abroad were too unpalatable, he wouldn't have returned to China to suffer.

Look at the clothes everyone wore along the way, it was really ugly, and he disliked the gray tunics on his cousin's body.

Hey, wait a minute, what a taste, so fragrant.

Before Zhao Chongming could speak, Tong Zhenghao had already followed the taste and broke into the crowd again.

As soon as he saw the oily and fragrant fried screws in the basin, his eyes immediately lit up, pointed to the screws in the basin, and asked Xin Andong loudly, "Hey, what are you doing, it looks delicious, how do you sell it?"

Tong Zhenghao grew up abroad since he can remember, and the only Chinese food he knows is the braised pig's trotters sent to him by his grandfather in the state-run restaurant, and he has never seen anything like a screw in a basin, not like a snail, but quite similar to a conch, but much smaller than a conch, but the taste is very fragrant, and the spicy smell drills into his nostrils, making him hungry.

Xin Andong's busy hands were so sore that he couldn't lift them, and suddenly someone asked him what he was selling, he turned his head, it was the person lying at his feet before, and replied casually, "It's screws, stir-fry screws, a spoonful of six cents, two spoons and a dime, how many spoonfuls do you want?"

Is it really called a screw?

Tong Zhenghao swallowed his saliva, looked at the few screws in the basin, and waved his big hand, "Just ask me a few spoonfuls, I want all of them in your basin, calculate how much!"

As soon as Zhao Chongming came in, he heard Tong Zhenghao say that he was not short of money, and he couldn't help but help his forehead.

The forehand was sour, and it was over quickly, since the young man in front of him had all the rest, Xin Andong was immediately overjoyed, "Then you bring the porcelain jar, and I will scoop it for you." ”

"What kind of porcelain jar? I don't have one. Tong Zhenghao frowned, looked around and found that everyone was holding a white porcelain deep-mouthed thing in their hands, or a rectangular aluminum box, scratched their heads, and said irritably, "You can just give me your basin directly, I'll give you money." ”

Xin Andong paused for a moment, "But I don't know how much this pot is worth." ”

Only then did he seriously look at the young man in front of him, with a small head, handsome facial features, very white skin, the kind of healthy white, unruly eyes, long hands and long feet, tall and tall, wearing suspenders, standing frowning, people who don't know think it was the arrogant young master who ran out.

It's not like the people of this era at all, he's a young master, and the rest of them are more like begging for food.

Xin Andong: "......"
