As a traditional street food in northern China, roasted sweet potatoes are fragrant, sweet and soft in the mouth, and steaming after being broken, which is definitely a good product for heating and leisure in winter, and more importantly, sweet potatoes are very cheap in China, and Kitahara Shuji can afford it even if he lives quite embarrassed in his last life.

He was very fond of this kind of small street food, and he still remembers that there was an old man at the gate of the high school, and in late autumn and early winter, he would put an earthen oven roasted sweet potato there, a small five cents, and a large piece. The old man was also very good to him, and often picked a big one for him for five cents - the old man probably wanted to pass the time after retirement to sell roasted sweet potatoes, but Kitahara Shuji was still very affectionate at that time, and he also helped the old man pull the charcoal shovel and coal on Sundays.

He passed by and smelled the familiar aroma, but he didn't expect that there were also roasted sweet potatoes sold in Japan, so he couldn't help but smell the smell and went, ready to buy some and share them with everyone, so he left the road and turned into a small alley.

There is a trolley in the alley, with a black body and black wheels underneath, and a red carriage on top. In the corner of the car, there is a white paper lantern with the words "Imperial System" written in black letters, and a long piece is inserted next to the lantern, with the words "Stone Roasted Sweet Potato" written on it, and the main body of the carriage is a large rectangular stove.

Next to the car stood a girl wearing a private Daifuku School uniform.,Suspected that this seller of roasted sweet potatoes was going to go to a night stall somewhere.,As a result, I was stopped by this girl when I walked here.。

Kitahara Shuji didn't care about the girl, and when he got to the car, he looked at the Japanese-style roasted sweet potato with some curiosity, only to see that unlike the Chinese hearth-baked sweet potato, the Japanese roasted sweet potato is made of an iron box. The iron box is divided into two layers, the lower layer is burned with charcoal, the upper layer is black and shiny pebbles, and the purple-red sweet potatoes are buried in it and roasted, there is a kind of Chinese fried chestnuts and roasted sweet potatoes after the marriage of the wonderful feeling.

This was his first winter in Japan, and he hadn't noticed that there were still people selling them on the street.

Although it was a little different from the expected roasted sweet potato, Kitahara Shuji still planned to buy it, and took out his wallet and asked, "Boss, bring me fifteen, how much does it cost?"

The boss was trying to burn the fire, raised his head and smiled politely, and pointed to the price to indicate that Kitahara Shuji saw it himself, and Kitahara Shuji swept his eyes and counted in his heart, and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows - about 300 yen a catty, this is a robbery, right?

Fifteen pieces cost about 20 catties, which is 6,000 yen, or about 300 yuan?

300 yuan can buy half a carload of sweet potatoes in China, right? Buy half a bag here?

Prices in Japan are quite high, especially for agricultural products, probably because the land area is too small and the population is too large, but how can these sweet potatoes be sold so expensive?

Kitahara Shuji took out Zhang Wanyuan's big bill and put it there waiting for change. He is also ready to use fancy bento to slaughter customers, but he didn't expect to buy a roasted sweet potato to be slaughtered first, no wonder the little radish head always ran to buy discounted clearance goods, no matter what festival the first thing to run to the cheap shopping mall, and then big bags and small bags to fight at home, now look at it, it can't be said that she is born to pick a bear - by Chinese standards, in Japan is to make more money, but to spend more money, if not now he has a particularly strong ability to absorb gold, it is really the whole family can not even eat sweet potatoes to improve the taste, about can only make do with fast food bento to survive.

It took a while for the stall owner to raise the fire, and after baking the first one, he took the bag and handed it to the girl next to him: "Guest, your double stone-roasted sweet potato, thank you for your patronage, 650 yen." ”

The girl next to her was facing away from Kitahara Shuji, and at this time she still tried to turn sideways and took out the money and handed it over, and said softly: "Thank you!"

Kitahara Shuji tilted his head and glanced at it, and found that it was an acquaintance, and he had a good impression, so he nodded his head and said hello: "Hello, classmate An Yun." ”

An Yunai's face flushed, she tried to maintain her demeanor, and bowed slightly in return: "Hello, Beiyuan-san." ”

Japanese girls don't like acquaintances to see themselves buying sweet potatoes, which is an old problem left over from the Showa era - in many literary works and movies in the Showa era, people have the impression that eating sweet potatoes is a common behavior.

Of course, it's much better now, but the old tradition still has some influence. For example, Japanese girls don't like to eat hamburgers because their mouths are too open to affect their image, for example, they don't eat ramen much, because eating ramen is too loud, which is very unsightly for girls, and for example, girls rarely go to fast food restaurants alone, because it will leave people with a bad feeling that "this girl can't cook, she is lazy, and she can't eat".

This is even worse for An Yunai, she is doing everything possible to maintain her perfect image, and the goddess doesn't even pull the poop, how can she eat sweet potatoes......? Will it fart?

If a goddess wants to fart, what kind of goddess is it?

She just transferred to school, didn't join the club, left directly after school, met this roasted sweet potato stall and wanted to eat but was afraid of being seen by others, and asked the boss to push away from the road and roast in the alley, I never expected it to be like this, Kitahara Xiuji still smelled and found it, and she couldn't run if she wanted to, if she was stopped by the boss, it would be even more embarrassing - this little girl, you called me here to roast sweet potatoes, and you didn't buy it, what do you mean?

She didn't know what to do for a while, and she wanted to explain a few more words with the roasted sweet potato, but Kitahara Shuji didn't care about her anymore. For ordinary classmates, just say hello politely, no need to chat. He picked sweet potatoes there, and prepared himself, Dongmei, Haruna, and Xia Weaving Xia Sha to have a big one - the amount of food for the girls in the Fukuzawa family is actually not small, but there is a snow there to compare, and it looks like a normal girl - Akitaro comes to a small one, Suzuki comes to a small one, and the remaining eight can eat another one if they like to eat, and if they don't like to eat, they will all feed it to the snow, and it won't be wasted anyway.

Soon Kitahara Shuji paid 5,600 yen and carried a large bag of stone-roasted sweet potatoes to take the bus back, and the stall owner was also very happy, this is a good start, a small profit.

But as soon as Kitahara Shuji turned the corner, he saw An Yunai still standing there, and greeted him elegantly: "Kitahara-san, are you going home directly?"

She didn't think it was right, and she felt that she should explain it again, otherwise she would say "Oh, I saw An Yun's girl buying roasted sweet potatoes, or eating double portions, haha", which is more or less a stain on a pure white angel like her.

She's the perfect girl, she can't allow herself a little bit of black, it has to be pure white!

Kitahara Shuji doesn't know why, although he has been studying in Japan for more than eight months, it is impossible to really understand all aspects of Japan thoroughly, and many small customs, especially those related to girls, are still in a state of semi-incomprehension. If he knew that there were some girls who didn't like others to know that she ate sweet potatoes, then he wouldn't have been able to see it according to his personality just now, and he wouldn't say hello at all, and now he didn't understand why An Yunai asked like this - we don't know each other so well, what does it matter to you where I go?

But his impression of An Yunai is okay, I feel that she is at least not the kind of brainless little girl, who wants to replace the relationship between classmates and boyfriend and girlfriend at every turn - he is not against love, but against hasty love, everyone doesn't understand each other, the future is unpredictable, there is no material basis, you have a hammer, it's a waste of time - he also smiled and responded: "It's home." ”

An Yunai had already put the sweet potato into her schoolbag, followed him with her schoolbag in both hands, smiled and asked, "Didn't Beiyuan-san go to the club activities today?"

Didn't this cold-faced man hear that he joined the kendo club and the baseball club? Why don't you go to training and come here to block me? This cold-faced man was sent by the gods to disgust me?

"Nope. ”

"I heard that Kitahara has won the Jade Dragon Banner championship, it's amazing!"

"It's a prize, it's just luck. ”

"Kitahara-san's personality is really low-key!"

"It's alright!"

Kitahara Shuji is not very good at chatting, but he just maintains politeness and asks and answers, and An Yunai patiently complimented him a few words, and finally got the topic on the right track: "Why did Kitahara-san buy so many roasted sweet potatoes?"

Kitahara Shuji looked down at the bag in his hand and couldn't help but smile softly. He is considered to be emotionally dull, after breaking through a certain boundary with the little radish head, he suddenly found that the little radish head is really good to himself, in addition to being noisy and noisy, he has also cared a lot about himself, such as handkerchiefs, sweaters, etc., and he also cares about diet every day, washes his own clothes, cleans his room or something, but he has never given her anything...... It seems that apart from hitting her in the head and telling her a little truth about life, he didn't care much about her personally.

He felt that it was not right, considering that the relationship was unusual, and he felt that he should be kind to the little radish head in the future. This time, I bought a roasted sweet potato and planned to share the warmth of my memory with my two pre-girlfriends - when I was cold and hungry, I ate a steaming, sweet and glutinous roasted sweet potato, which really can't compare to any delicacies from the mountains and seas.

It was one of the good memories of his previous life, and he really wanted to share it with his own people, and said with a smile: "The family has a large population, so there are many purchases." ”

He had already said that he didn't want to eat the little radish head in his brain, but after he insisted on a few words, he obediently knelt there and sat there to chirp the scene, and his heart was quite warm - before, the dead radish head loved to eat or not, and you just watched me eat it if it was awkward, but now I feel that she is a little cute, and if she wants to talk in her mouth again, she will peel the skin and stuff it directly into her mouth, and forcibly feed it to her.

And An Yunai didn't care about the few people in Kitahara Shuji's family, and hurriedly said: "Me too! I bought it for my younger brother, but in fact, I don't eat sweet potatoes." ”

Kitahara Shuji also didn't care who she bought it for, the two of them were chatting about each other, and said casually: "Yes, in fact, roasted sweet potatoes are still good to eat in winter, rich in fiber, and moisturizing the intestines." ”

An Yun breathed a sigh of relief in her love, feeling that this level was passed, and Kitahara Shuji would not be able to discredit herself even if she chatted inadvertently, and said easily: "Kitahara-san is right, my brother loves to eat very much, but I am not used to eating this kind of thing." ”

She felt that her goal had been achieved, and she didn't plan to share a car with Kitahara Shuji, and was going to get rid of him in front of the station, so as not to encounter a scandal from the same school student of the "Homecoming Department" who ruined her perfect personality, but when she looked up, she saw a short girl walking out from under the bus stop sign, with horizontal eyebrows and a black face, and her eyes wandered between herself and Kitahara Shuji.
