Early the next morning, because he came back too late last night, Ye Xi naturally lay down in the warm quilt and fell asleep. In my dream, I was scalding a spicy hot pot, and I suddenly heard the manic barking of Tiantian in my ears.

Ye Xi opened his eyes in a daze: "Tiantian, what's wrong with you?"

Every day is still screaming, and his voice reveals an unprecedented anxiety.

Ye Xi reluctantly sat up from the bed, but in the next second, Ye Xi clearly felt the vibration from the ground, and then the bed she was sitting on also began to shake from side to side.

"Eh, eh!"

Ye Xi, who was half-asleep, was directly shaken out of bed.

When he was still touching his sore buttocks, Ye Xi heard the frightened screams of the proprietress downstairs: "Xiaodao Chief! Xiaodao Chief! Come out soon! There is an earthquake!"

"What?!"

Ye Xi suddenly came to his senses, and rushed out of the room without saying anything.

At this time, the earth seemed to be angry, and the strong vibration from the center of the earth to the ground shook the wooden house of the proprietress to a creak, and the dust in the wooden planks flew everywhere.

The proprietress took Ye Xi and ran to the street outside.

When they ran out, they saw a large group of people standing outside the street, all of whom had just run out of the house for refuge.

Some people are calling other relatives on the phone, some are holding crying children to comfort them, and some people are holding some elderly people who are unsteady with a heavy face, and the noise is endless.

"Don't worry, our city C is not in the earthquake zone, it's okay. ”

The proprietress comforted Ye Xidao, and at the same time, she was comforting herself.

Ye Xi nodded, hugged Tiantian in his arms tightly, and looked at the chaotic crowd in front of him, his mood was a little heavy, and his eyes became distant.

She suddenly remembered some of the past, some of the past of her hometown.

At this moment, the sky was gray, and the ground could faintly feel the turbulence of aftershocks.

Ye Xi took out his mobile phone and called the master, and the master said that they were all right, but they had fallen a few tiles and needed to be repaired.

As soon as he put down the phone, Bai Yitian's phone called.

"Hey Ye Xi, there was an earthquake just now, are you okay?"

"It's fine. ”

"I read on the news that there are still aftershocks, so why don't you and the proprietress come to live with me. The proprietress is easy to get into trouble with her broken shop. ”

Ye Xi smiled: "The proprietress will definitely be angry when she hears you say this." Forget it, it's not a big earthquake, it's nothing. ”

After Bai Yitian, Yi Yang, Xue Ning, Liu Tianyu and others all called one after another to ask for safety. Ye Xi reported safety one by one, reassuring them.

After a few hours, the ground was finally calm, the street security alarm was lifted, and people were able to go back to their homes.

Ye Xi looked at the proprietress: "Boss, I'm not coming back today, I'm going to go far away." ”

The proprietress was stunned for a moment: "Where to go?"

"Clearwater Town. I haven't been back for a long time, and I suddenly want to go and see it. ”

Ye Xi actually wanted to go back and have a look, but he always felt that there was no hurry, and it was still a long time. But today's earthquake gave her a sudden urge to go back and see.

Natural disasters and man-made disasters, no one knows whether they can still exist in this world in the next second, so what you want to do is better to do it quickly.

……

There is no direct train from City C to Qingshui Town, so you can only take a bus to a nearby town and then find an opportunity to take the car of the villager who happens to go back to the town.

After a bumpy ride for most of the day, Ye Xi finally set foot on the land she was familiar with again, and it was also her hometown of birth: Qingshui Town.

At this time, the sun was already setting, and the afterglow of the setting sun sprinkled on the bluestone street at the feet, sprinkled on the old wooden houses on both sides of the street, all of which were plated with a layer of nostalgic color, like yellowed old photos.

The old man who was sitting at the door smoking slowly lifted the wooden stool and walked into the house, an orange light overflowed from the window, and the aroma of cooking from every house also wafted into Ye Xi's nose.

Ye Xi then remembered that because he was in a hurry, he hadn't eaten a good meal.

She found a small restaurant with her mutilated memories.

The restaurant was run by the grandmother of a childhood friend of hers, and it only sold stone-ground bean curd. The bean curd made with fresh soybeans and mountain spring water is particularly fragrant and sweet, and then drizzled with a spoonful of grandma's special green onion chili oil......

Ye Xi felt even hungrier.

She couldn't wait to walk into the store, and a tall and thin boy wearing a pair of black-rimmed glasses greeted her: "I'm sorry, the bean curd is sold out today." ”

This sentence is like a lightning bolt on Ye Xi's head on a sunny day, and the degree of disappointment is no less than the degree of winning the lottery number.

She sighed and had to accept this fact, and then looked at the kitchen again: "I want to ask, is Grandma Dou here?"

The boy was stunned for a moment: "Do you know my grandmother?"

Ye Xi was stunned for a moment when he heard this: "Your grandmother, are you Xiaodouzi Dou Chuyi?"

The boy was stunned: "Ye Xi?

After the boy recognized Ye Xi, he looked at her excitedly: "Little Yezi, I haven't seen you for a long time! Where have you been?!

Ye Xi smiled: "I am now a Taoist priest in the Pure Heart Temple. ”

Dou Chuyi: "......"

Ye Xi knew that he must have regarded himself as the kind of god stick who sang and danced for the dead, so he didn't correct him much, and continued to ask, "Where is Grandma Dou?"

At the mention of grandma, Dou Chuyi's expression became gloomy: "Grandma, she left last year." ”

Ye Xi was stunned.

When I was a child, as long as I went to play with Xiaodouzi, Grandma Dou would always smile and give her her own hand-made dried tofu and tofu brain, because it was so delicious, she didn't want to eat when she went back at night, and as a result, she was always beaten by her parents with a mixed double.

When he saw Ye Xi's expression, he comforted her and said, "Grandma walked in a dream and didn't suffer anything." ”

Ye Xi nodded: "It's just...... I can't eat my grandmother's bean curd anymore. ”

Dou Chu smiled: "You can eat what I made." ”

It turned out that Dou Chuyi was deeply influenced by his grandmother since he was a child, liked to cook and cook, and was determined to carry forward his grandmother's shop.

This time I reunited with Ye Xi again, and I said that I would cook for Ye Xi in the first year, and Ye Xi was not polite to him, and sat and waited for delicious food.

"This is stir-fried pork with sharp peppers, this is spicy clear water fish, if it is not enough, I will cook it. ”

"Enough is enough, then I'm welcome, I've been hungry for a day today. ”

Ye Xi happily picked up a piece of fish meat and put it in his mouth.

Ye Xi: "......"

She swallowed hard. Xiaodouzi's cooking skills are a long way to go......

Because he was so hungry, Ye Xi still ate all the dishes with tears.

Dou Chuyi was very moved when he saw Ye Xi eat all the dishes, and felt that he had met a soulmate of cooking for the first time.

Ye Xi: "......"

It's good if you're happy.
