Night 26: Braised pork with honey sauce
"I can smell meat from afar...... What did Lao Huo do today?" Lao Zhou walked over with a coat that could no longer be seen to be gray.
One step behind him, followed by Mingwa, who looked tired, and Hei Dan, who lowered his head and couldn't see his expression at all.
"Braised pork. Huo Bai opened the pressure cooker and came out with half a pot of meat.
"Black Egg, there is braised pork today, are you happy?" The fat man who walked not far behind Black Egg patted him on the shoulder.
Hei Dan didn't care about the fat man's hand on his shoulder, he buried his head in the food stall, took the rice bowl in Duan Ping's hand and walked into the tent and sat down.
Duan Ping looked at his empty hands and was stunned.
"What's the fuss, it's served. Huo Bai walked to the tent with half a pot of braised pork, and passed by Duan Ping and gave him an elbow.
Duan Ping came to his senses, turned around and put the fried vegetables and soup in a tray and brought them in.
The atmosphere among the crowd today was a bit strange, and everyone sat honestly in their seats to eat.
It stands to reason that there is always a bit of a noise when there are black eggs, but today's black eggs are too quiet.
The fat man sat in his seat and felt a little uncomfortable watching Hei Dan so quiet, so he deliberately went to grab the same piece of braised pork with Hei Dan.
After the fat man grabbed the meat, he took the piece of braised pork and stuffed it into his mouth in front of him, chewed it deliberately with relish, and said exaggeratedly while chewing: "Well~ It's so fragrant!" The usual black egg jumped up and made trouble with the fat man, this time he just glanced up at the fat man, and then re-clamped a piece of meat for himself and lowered his head to continue eating.
I didn't say a word the whole time.
The fat man scratched his head a little irritably, and he put down the dishes and chopsticks in his hand heavily, "There are so many girls in the world, what about you!"
"Dumb, speak!"
The black egg ignored him, and just sped up the action of eating.
"Eh, why are you going?" the fat man stood up and grabbed the black egg who put down the empty bowl and walked out.
The black egg shook off his hand, lifted the curtain and walked out, "Go back and dream!"
The fat man was stupid, he sat down and turned his head to look at Lao Zhou, "What's wrong?"
The girl said that her father said that she was too young to talk about it in a few years. Lao Zhou took a bite of sweet rice mixed with broth in his mouth.
"Then talk about falling in love for a few more years and then get married. ”
"Black egg said the same thing......" Lao Zhou suddenly lost interest in eating, he put down the bowl and took out a cigarette. "The girl and her mother came to him and told him to let him go home and dream, thinking that he was poor and the conditions were not good, and that he was not worthy of her girl at all. ”
"Isn't this a trick! The black egg spent 10,000 yuan on that girl, to say the least!" The fat man looked down and counted his fingers.
"If you really don't want to talk about it, why didn't you say it earlier?!"
Lao Zhou sneered, "Oh, what's the matter, he told me a while ago that he bought a gold bracelet for that girl as a birthday gift." ”
"This ...... He...... Hey!" The fat man opened his mouth and stammered, the black egg was ruthless this time.
"It's obvious that the girl's family hates the poor and loves the rich!" Dajun, who was eating silently on the side, couldn't help but say.
Lao Zhou shook the ashes of his cigarette, "What that girl did is really not authentic, but who would be willing to marry a good girl to a migrant worker and follow us to eat chaff." ”
"The girls in the city are demanding and have high vision, how can they really take a fancy to us people?"
"If you want me to say that it's better to be a girl from our hometown, bear hardships and stand hard work. ”
Lao Zhou glanced at the person who had just spoken, and spit out a puff of cigarette, "Who said it wasn't?"
"Alright, let's go when we're done. Lao Zhou knocked on the table, and then he raised his head and shouted: "Lao Huo, bring me a box, and I'll decorate some food and rice." Black Egg didn't eat well today, half of his sleep was about to wake up hungry. ”
"Old Zhou, you you, ha~ Old Mother Zhou!" the fat man smiled.
"But no, I'm an old mother to lead you to a group of debt collectors!" Lao Zhou stood up with a cigarette in his mouth and took the packing box that Huo Bai brought.
After sending Lao Zhou and them away, Huo Bai and Duan Ping cleaned up together.
"Brother Huo, where is my sister-in-law?" Duan Ping suddenly asked halfway through the cleaning.
Huo Bai stopped cleaning up in his hand, "Your sister-in-law went back to her hometown to get married." ”
"Oh......"
Duan Ping regretted that he had asked this question.
"Brother Huo, what are we selling in the morning?" Seeing that the atmosphere was a little dull, he hurriedly casually talked about a topic.
"Let's sell noodles. Ramen. ”
Then both of them began to be silent, silently finishing the cleaning, and the silent one made noodles and the other stewed soup base.
"Gollum~Gollum~Gollum~"
"Da-!-da-, da-da!" came the sound of crisp high heels hitting the ground and the sound of wheels rolling on the ground.
"Two bottles of wine, a bowl of rice, and a meal. Sister Hua stepped on high heels and dragged a huge suitcase into the food stall.
Duan Ping wiped his hands and walked over and asked, "What do you want for snacks and meals?"
Sister Hua stopped, turned around and stared at Duan Ping's face, "Oh...... New here?"
"The young man is good~" After speaking, she didn't answer what she wanted, and dragged her suitcase into the tent.
Duan Ping stood in place and coughed uncomfortably, "Cough, Huo, Brother Huo, what's on the appetizer and the next meal?"
Huo Bai skimmed off the foam in the soup pot, "Just serve it, just pick up one of edamame, peanuts, pig ears or something and put it on a plate." The braised pork in the pressure cooker is served as the next meal. ”
"Oh. Duan Ping touched his nose and went to prepare the wine and food she wanted for Sister Hua.
Sister Hua dresses exquisitely, pays attention to makeup, pays attention to everything, but she is not particular about eating and drinking, every time she comes, she is never picky about the brand of wine and the taste of snacks.
As long as it's on, she eats it, and there won't be any left. It can be said that she is both the best and the worst to serve, because you never know what she likes to eat and drink.
Duan Ping put down the food in the tray and prepared to leave.
"Wait, little brother. ”
He looked back at her.
"Look...... Am I pretty?" Sister Hua asked Duan Ping with a lit cigarette between the tips of her right fingers, curling the ends of her hair with her left hand, and sitting on Erlang's side with her legs crossed.
"Beautiful. Duan Ping told the truth, Sister Hua is really good-looking, and she can be called gorgeous and extraordinary.
She couldn't help but smile when she heard him say that she was pretty, and she pursed her lips with bright red lipstick and continued, "Hmm...... How old do you think I am, little brother?"
Duan Ping glanced at her twice and estimated it, "Twenty years old?" He was very unsure, as soon as the woman put on makeup, God knows how old she was.
"Poof~Little brother's mouth is so sweet~" Sister Hua's smile was like a flower, like a brilliant red rose, and her face turned cold for a moment after laughing, "Give me another bottle of wine." ”
Duan Ping walked out of the tent in a daze to get the wine, this woman was so strange, he thought so.
Carrying a bottle of wine again into the tent, he washed his hands after coming out, and returned to the stove to continue to meet without much care, Sister Hua's words did not leave any trace in his heart.
Sister Hua in the tent held a bowl and pinched chopsticks to pick up a piece of meat with a hint of sweetness and brown and red color.
The meat is fat and thin, the fat is a little Q and a little glutinous, you can separate it from the lean meat with a light clip with chopsticks, and take a bite of fat but not greasy, full of sweet and salty.
It feels like it tastes like meat jelly, but it tastes better than meat jelly, although Sister Hua doesn't have any obvious preferences, she still doesn't like to eat fatty meat very much.
Lean meat can't be said to be soft or hard, it's a feeling in the middle, neither wood nor rotten, which she likes very much.
The braised pork tastes sweet and salty, and it is not greasy at all, even if it is eaten empty, it tastes even better with rice.
A bite of meat and a bite of rice, Sister Hua ate with relish, and the more she ate, the more hungry she felt. After eating a bowl of rice, she called Huo Bai to refill a bowl for her.
After eating three bowls of rice, Sister Hua put down her chopsticks after eating all the meat and soup.
She touched her slightly swollen belly and smiled, it turned out that she was also greedy, and there were times when she couldn't control herself.
Pushing the empty plate and bowl aside, she opened a bottle of wine with the corner of her mouth and poured herself a glass and slowly sipped it one by one, occasionally eating two mouthfuls of boiled edamame.
Sister Hua's mobile phone on the table vibrated a few times, but this time she didn't look at the caller ID, but connected it directly.
"Hey~?"
"Well, in a good mood. ”
She spat the skin of the edamame aside, "There's no reason. ”
"To be happy is to be happy, what is the reason?"
"Ha~" I don't know what the person on the other side of the phone said, and Sister Hua let out a short laugh.
"I wouldn't agree. Her voice froze.
"Oh......"
"So what?"
"I'm not going to get married. Sister Hua looked down at the manicure she had only done for a short time, and admired it alone for a while.
Somehow, she suddenly felt that the color on her hands was a little old-fashioned, so let's go and change the style and color tomorrow, she thought to herself.
"I never promised you that I would marry you. She pulled the edamame on the plate with her chopsticks, a little irritably.
"I said it when you dreamed. ”
"Heh~" Sister Hua changed her hand and continued to listen to the phone.
"I've seen it, we're just going to split up. It turned out that the gift box at her feet was because she had met the man and returned.
"If you continue to be so entangled, it will make me look down on you. ”
"Too lazy to talk nonsense with you, so be it. After Sister Hua finished speaking, she turned off her mobile phone and threw it into the patent leather bag on the side.
Hanging up the phone, she drank the rest of the wine in her glass in a few sips and walked out with her suitcase.
"Pay. As soon as Sister Hua stepped out of the tent, she smelled a strong aroma of broth.
Obviously she had already eaten a lot, but she felt that she was suddenly hungry again.
"Boss, your braised pork tastes good. Before leaving, Sister Hua smiled and left such a sentence.
This is the first time she has commented on the dishes in Huo Bai's food stall.
The sound of high heels and wheels moving on the ground gradually drowned out in the darkness.
"Smack!" Huo Bai looked up at the tent that was recessed overhead.
"What hit it? Shall I go up and take a look?"
Huo Bai shook his head, stretched out his hand to stop Duan Ping, who was wiping his hands and wanted to move the ladder, "No, the cat boss is back." ”
"It's still there?"
"Hmm. ”
"Didn't you say someone was going to adopt it?"
"Adopted, it ran back on its own. ”
