Chapter 623: Malatang

"Hey, Qingyun, aren't you, don't you know the most famous 'Ju Ying' Malatang in Shahe County?"

On the other end of the phone, Miao Kexin's voice had a hint of ridicule.

"By the way, why do you have the leisure to eat Malatang today? This is not like you!"

Li Qingyun's expression froze, and then he smiled and said: "I said Kexin, didn't I just come back from the food festival in Lianhua Township? I want to see if our Shahe County has its own special food......

Li Qingyun's explanation obviously passed, and Miao Kexin explained with a smile: "This reason is valid, then I'll show you the way." ”

"This 'Ju Ying' Malatang, just at the corner of Yingchun Road and Jichuan Road, a small red house, you can find it when you look at it!"

As soon as Miao Kexin said this, Li Qingyun naturally understood.

In the entire county seat of Shahe County, there are only three roads in total, and Yingchun Road and Jichuan Road are the busiest two, how could Li Qingyun not know them?

After putting down the phone, Li Qingyun twisted his neck at Xia Bingqing with a smile, and signaled, "Please, Miss Xia, let's take the children to eat Malatang!"

Xia Bingqing smiled, then took the hands of the two little girls and got into the car.

Li Qingyun drove the car, and after crossing two streets, he soon saw the "red house" at the corner.

After parking the car, Li Qingyun took a group of four women of all sizes to the "red house".

Due to the relatively good business, the small store of "Juying" Malatang can't accommodate so many people at all.

As a result, a large area at the entrance of the store is also occupied by plastic chairs and tables that have been brought out of the store.

Looking at the men, women and children who were eating skewers in these stalls, Li Qingyun felt for the first time that he seemed to have really integrated into the small county town of Shahe County.

Seeing the special temperament and outstanding appearance of Li Qingyun and Xia Bingqing, the proprietress of "Ju Ying" Malatang hurriedly greeted them warmly.

"A few guests, come on, sit here!" The proprietress personally picked up a clean place for Li Qingyun and invited them to sit down.

A small round table with only four small stools.

The proprietress saw that the opportunity was tight, and quickly evened out from the stall next door.

After Li Qingyun sat down, he smiled at Ma Lingling, who was cowering, and said, "Sister Ma, you sit down, you're welcome." ”

Turning his head to look at Xia Bingqing, Li Qingyun thought that the eldest lady would take out the tissue paper and carefully wipe the stool that looked a little dirty.

Who knows, this Miss Xia is not pretentious at all, and directly pulled the little sisters to sit beside her.

Looking at her demeanor, Li Qingyun nodded secretly in his heart.

After everyone sat down, the proprietress had already quickly brought over the menu.

At this time, the guests have already placed orders, and the proprietress has nothing to do, so naturally their attention is on Li Qingyun and their table.

From her point of view, Li Qingyun and Xia Bingqing are undoubtedly rare characters in the county. If you can't get it, it's still from Thuan An City.

If her small shop can receive such a character once, the proprietress feels that her face has more face.

Ordering such a thing, of course Li Qingyun would not embarrass Ma Lingling or the two little girls.

He took the menu, looked at it roughly, and said with a smile: "Boss, we don't come often, or you recommend it." If there is a special one, there will be a few copies of each. Uh, two more sweet corns for the kids!"

After Li Qingyun said this, the boss's face showed a rare brilliance.

"Cheng Chengcheng, sir, please wait, I'll go and let the back kitchen prepare!" the proprietress agreed, twisted her waist and left quickly.

When Li Qingyun ordered, Xia Bingqing on the side had already gone to the red house to bring a large bottle of Coke.

After filling Ma Lingling, the eldest girl and the little girl respectively, she tilted her head and looked at Li Qingyun and said, "How about it, you also come here? Anyway, if you drive, you can't drink!"

Li Qingyun waved his hand and said, "No, this thing hurts my teeth, I'd better drink tea!"

Xia Bingqing muttered and poured himself a glass of Coke.

When the group was waiting for the pot to come up, Xia Bingqing motioned to Sister Ma and the eldest girl to drink first.

Noticing the appearance of the two little girls taking small sips of Coke, Li Qingyun's heart was a little melancholy.

Yes, although I took these two children to see the world once, but what about the future?

If nothing else, the cute big girl and the little girl will continue to live a hard life for a long time, right?

If you want to really change the face of poverty in these villages below the Shahe County Economic and Technological Development Zone, it is obviously not enough to rely on such "occasional kindness" actions.

After thinking about this, Li Qingyun turned his head to look at Ma Lingling and said, "Sister Ma, near your Dafeng Village, there is no farmland to plant, what do the big guys usually rely on to support their families?"

Hearing this, Ma Lingling couldn't help but sigh and said: "What else can I rely on, except for going up the mountain to pick some wild mushrooms and herbs to sell for some money, or raising some goats and chickens, there is no other source of income......

Li Qingyun nodded with a heavy face, and then asked, "I walked around the village a little yesterday and saw that there were almost no young and middle-aged laborers. Isn't it that the big guys are all going out to work?"

Ma Lingling said "um", and said, "Yes, on the mountain, you can only barely make a living by raising sheep and chickens." Go up the mountain to pick mushrooms, and not every harvest is made. Those young and strong laborers who eat a lot of food are even more difficult to live. Going out to work is just to have enough to eat......"

"My family is now working in Nanyue Province, and it is rare to return home once in many years. The last time I came back, it was three years ago......"

Listening to Ma Lingling's somewhat distracted words, Li Qingyun fell silent.

Indeed, it is not uncommon for villagers in poor areas to go out to work in other parts of the country.

Sometimes, a family lives in two places, and there is no way to do it.

After all, only by going to economically developed areas such as Nanyue Province and Jiangnan Province can the family have a relatively stable source of income.

"Sister Ma, eldest brother sends money home every month, right?" Xia Bingqing on the side saw that the atmosphere was a little solemn, so he asked with a smile.

"Well, send. However, it is not every month, but about once every three or four months! Although it is not much, it is enough to maintain the basic life of our family......" Sister Ma said with some relief.
