Chapter 35: A Chance Encounter
After a group of people shopping all morning, they were already sleepy and tired, and Zhou Jinglin proposed to go to drink mutton soup together, which was unanimously approved by everyone. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info to say that the sheep soup in Shiqiao Town, it should be regarded as a must, at least after the two ends grow up, the sheep soup provincial town of Shiqiao Town is famous. And the owner of this sheep soup restaurant has also been replaced by his son.
At this time, the sheep soup restaurant does not even have a signboard, relying on the big black pot above the big firewood stove at the door, the milky white sheep soup is churning in the cauldron, this is the mutton soup that has been boiled since the early hours of the morning, the aroma is compelling, and the people who pass by are all salivating.
The soup has been boiled for hours with lamb bones, and the fragrance wafts with oil flowers, and the fragrance drills straight into your nostrils. Then cut the boiled lamb haggis into small cubes and put them in a large blue-edged white bowl, pour the boiling lamb soup, sprinkle with coriander, fine salt, pepper, and a bowl of refreshing and tempting mutton soup is ready to serve.
It doesn't seem complicated, but only the mutton soup in this house is exceptionally delicious, and the two ends guess that they must have some unique secret recipe, otherwise it would not be possible to open for more than 30 years and still have a prosperous business.
I found a table and sat down, and the mutton soup ordered by the head is not like what ordinary mutton soup and fine mutton soup were later distributed, all of which were at a uniform price, eight cents for a bowl of mutton soup, and no money was charged for adding soup.
When the second end sat and waited, she wondered in her heart, drinking mutton soup at this time was really affordable enough, and she had to taste whether there was any difference between it and thirty years later. After all, she had never drunk this mutton soup at this time in her previous life, and the conditions of her family at that time were average, and her father would not be so generous.
Of course, just drinking mutton soup doesn't matter if you're full, the owner of the mutton soup restaurant will naturally do business, and the flower rolls the size of an adult's fist are five cents a piece. One adult eats four full.
The two ends are compared to the flower scroll the size of his own half-pulled head, and he can't help but admire, or at this time, people are real. When she grew up, she drank his mutton soup, and the flower rolls were made into long, and the two strands of noodles were twisted together, and she felt full after eating eight bowls of mutton soup. If it weren't for the good taste of the mutton soup, she really couldn't help but complain.
"Do children eat mutton skewers?" Kim Xie looked around, this mutton soup restaurant also has a stove to grill mutton skewers, and there are not as many people who eat mutton soup as they drink. After all, mutton skewers are expensive, only four skewers for one dollar, which is as long as an adult's little finger.
The type and the two ends didn't say anything, Qi Dacheng wanted to eat, but his grandfather could educate him, he couldn't ask for everything when he went out, and he didn't squeak when he looked at the type, and he didn't speak.
Jin Xie raised his eyebrows, this kid is determined enough. He didn't ask anymore, he stood up and prepared to buy five dollars for the children.
Zhou Jinglin didn't stop him, in fact, he also wanted to buy it for the children, but Jin Xie took the lead.
Grandma naturally has no opinion, she has never been distressed when she eats what is in the child's mouth.
"Aunt Zhou, your comrade-in-arms Jingran is really enthusiastic and kind to children. "Aunt Qi is naturally appreciative, she is Zhou Jingran's comrade-in-arms, and she is the two children of the Zhou family, but her own adults are also treated the same, so you can see that her character is not bad.
"Xiao Jin's character is really nothing, otherwise my family Jingran would not have brought him to the house as a guest. Grandma is naturally full of praise for Jin Xie, although she has only stayed at home for a few days, but she treats people and things generously, and her personality is gentle and meticulous, although her home is a provincial city, but she is not uncomfortable staying in the countryside, but she is like a fish in water.
There are not a few people in the city who dislike the countryside, but it is not necessarily that they look down on the rural people, but they are used to enjoying it, and they are not suitable for the environment of the gap when they get to the countryside. It's like the little daughter-in-law of the old man Naqi, because she is from the city, every time she goes back to her mother-in-law's house, she looks like she is going to faint. So since marrying into the Qi family, he has shown his face three times in Lishutun. For this reason, the old man Qi was very dissatisfied with this little daughter-in-law, but for the sake of his son's future, he turned a blind eye.
Kim Xie waited for the grilled lamb skewers and told him not to put chili peppers, not to put too salty, this kind of carefulness is really not to mention. Child's tastes are taken into account everywhere. But if the second end knows that Uncle Jin didn't let him put chili noodles, he will not be happy, is the mutton skewer without chili noodles called mutton skewers?
After waiting like this for a short while, Kim Xie glanced to the side casually, and as soon as he withdrew his gaze, he immediately turned back again. Look straight ahead, what are you looking at? Chu Ruiqin.
It turned out that Aunt Chu Ruiqin was on duty for half a day today, and when she came back from the unit, she came directly to Daji, ready to buy some things for the New Year, after all, on the 30th, my brother and sister-in-law and sister-in-law will come to eat and celebrate the New Year, and the New Year's goods must be prepared.
With two net pockets in his hand, both of which were full, Chu Ruiyun thought about buying some braised pig's head beef with meat sauce or something at the braised meat shop next to the mutton soup restaurant. As a result, Kim Seop, who was waiting outside for the mutton skewers, took a look.
At this moment, Jin Xie's heart was pounding, and in the cold weather, his palms were sweating with excitement. He felt that this was an opportunity created by God for him, and he was thinking of finding a reason to go to Chu's house after eating, but he didn't expect to meet him in the bazaar.
Jin Xie strode over, approached Chu Ruiqin, and coughed twice behind her. Well, he didn't know what to call Chu Ruiqin for a while, in fact, he wanted to call her Xiaoqin, but he felt that it was too presumptuous.
Chu Ruiqin naturally glanced back when she heard the cough, Jin Xie's military uniform was still very eye-catching, Chu Ruiqin looked a little familiar, and this person kept smiling at himself, that is, knowing himself?
"Are you my second sister's brother-in-arms?" Chu Ruiqin is worthy of being a financial officer, and her head is a good one, and after thinking about it for a while, she remembered that she was Zhou Jingran's comrade-in-arms who went to see her sister that day.
The two of them didn't speak, but Chu Ruiqin still had an impression of this white, clean and smiling soldier, the soldier in her impression should be black and strong like Zhou Jingran, but this person is more like a scholar.
Jin Xie almost cried when he heard Chu Ruiqin say himself, this crutche, and the comrade-in-arms of the second sister and brother-in-law, the girl who dared to love didn't remember what his name was.
"My surname is Kim, and my name is Kim Seop. Hello!" But Kim Seop will not be defeated so easily, he quickly adjusts his mood and takes the initiative to introduce himself.
"Hello. Chu Ruiqin felt that this person's teeth were really white when he smiled, but was it necessary to grin so big?
Jin Xie's expression management system was a little out of control because he saw Chu Ruiqin, he just wanted to laugh, and he couldn't help but be happy.
"You're also here to buy something, right? Aunt Zhou and they are also here, drinking sheep soup in the sheep soup restaurant. "Jin Xie is not a fool, although he was a little excited to see Chu Ruiqin, but he still has the wisdom he should have, so he didn't believe me and said that Aunt Zhou and they are here, you don't go and take a look.
"Oh, is it? Chu Ruiqin wanted to go to the sheep soup restaurant when he heard this, and he didn't care about buying lo-mei.
"Here, I'll help you carry your things. Jin Xie followed behind Chu Ruiqin, and diligently took the net bag in Chu Ruiqin's hand, this net bag is convenient, but it is too much to strangle, seeing Chu Ruiqin's white fingers are red, Jin Xie felt distressed for a while.
Chu Ruiqin was thinking about the children, so she naturally gave her pocket to Jin Xie, thinking that this person was quite discerning.
As soon as Chu Ruiqin came up, he saw it at the second end, and waved in surprise and shouted: "Auntie, aunt!"
"Auntie, I don't know that you came to town today, why don't you go home for dinner?" Chu Ruiqin walked over and picked up the two ends, and touched the little face of the shape.
Grandma smiled and said, "What a coincidence, I met here." Aren't we a big family, it's too troublesome to go to your house for dinner, just gluttonous mutton soup, it's good to drink some mutton soup. Ruiqin sit down and eat together?"
"That's it, auntie, drink mutton soup with us. "The type also plays Chu Ruiqin.
"Okay, I'll eat with you too, I'll come straight to the market after work. "Chu Ruiqin has never been a hypocritical person, and besides, he is a brother-in-law's family, and the relationship is also very harmonious.
Holding the two ends and sitting down, Chu Ruiqin thought about feeding the end first. If you want to pet the second end, Chu Ruiqin is much more powerful than her second sister, and the second end will make chopsticks at the age of three, but Chu Ruiqin will pick it up and feed it when she sees it, which is called a doting.
Jin Xie, who had the foresight, didn't understand Chu Ruiqin's intentions this time, and thought that there was not enough stool, so he took a handful from the table next to him and put it next to Chu Ruiqin.
"Come, put the end on this stool. Jin Xie thinks that his tone and attitude are very in place, and he seems to be a considerate gentleman.
Before he could get complacent, he exchanged for Chu Ruiqin's fluttering eyes, and just felt that this person had the ability to see, and it was going to be a lot of things at this time.
The two ends saw it clearly, and snickered in their hearts. Uncle Kim didn't shoot the horse's ass well, and patted the horse's hooves. But I have to help him, and I can't let my aunt bother him.
"Uncle Kim, you sit here, you hold me and sit, I can't reach the table. The second end stretched out his little hand to Jin Xie and begged for a hug, and said in his heart that I am fighting hard to fulfill you.
Jin Xie is naturally a hundred willing, sitting next to Xiaoqin, that is simply wonderful! Duan Duan is really his Cupid!
But before Jin Xie took over the end, Chu Ruiqin was not happy, and shook the two ends and asked, "What's the matter?"
Yes, this aunt is still jealous, and it seems that my mother also has a jealous aunt.
The two ends shook their heads, and the pigtails on their heads swayed. "No, my aunt works hard and hasn't eaten lunch yet, so you can't eat well if you hold me. I want Uncle Kim to hug. ”
After speaking, the second end took advantage of the aunt's emotion and threw himself into Jin Xie's arms. Xiaozui secretly hooked a smile, and his assistant team member can be regarded as exerting strength.
Kim Xie sat down with the two ends in his arms, and at this time, the lamb skewers were also delivered, and the children cheered and began to eat. The second end held a string in his hand and gnawed vigorously, ignoring Jin Xie's use of her cover, constantly peeking at Chu Ruiqin.
Chu Ruiqin drank the soup while tearing a small piece of flower roll from time to time and feeding it to the two ends, just eating meat can be full temporarily, and after a while, he will be hungry.
"Uncle Kim, don't be too obvious. The two ends felt that Jin Xie's neck was almost unbearable, and grandma had seen it and had to remind him in a whisper.
Jin Xie was shocked, yes, he didn't drink mutton soup and patronized Xiaoqin. His face flushed, and he hurriedly lowered his head to drink the soup to hide himself.
