Volume 1 The Rain of Jianyi Chapter 72 Dreams

Our little fat man Li Qiwu is still resting at home, his face is swollen into a pig's head, of course it is impossible to come to participate in the Luming Festival.

There is still a distance from Tuchuan Street, except for Xu Lai, several people can't run, Ah Xiao scratched his head and asked Fan Yan: "Why are you tired?"

"I didn't have dinner either!" Fan Yan drooped her little head, and replied weakly, her two balls were scattered, and she didn't bother to tie them up again, so she simply dressed up as a boy.

At this time, Su Jie proposed: "Why don't we eat something and then go home?"

Seeing that several people were hesitant, he said tentatively: "I'm in for a treat?"

"Good!" Several replied very simply.

Su Jie was a little speechless.

A few people looked around, and there was no food sold around, but unfortunately at this time, several shops on this side of Tuifan Street would not open, and at this time of the night, only Granny Chai at that time would continue to guard the small stall.

"It's a pity that it shouldn't be open now. Ah Xiao sighed.

"Yes, the last time I saw a woman in her forties or fifties selling wontons there, but it should only be sold at night," Xu Lai said.

Su Jie, Fan Yan, and even Ah Xiao all looked at Xu Lai in surprise, not knowing why he knew about this kind of very remote news, in fact, since Granny Chai left, they hadn't been to the north of the city for three nights.

Xu Lai looked at the eyes of several of them, so he had to wave his hand, and said helplessly: "Okay, a few weeks ago, I was chased and beaten by my father at night with a bamboo stick, and I happened to run over there and saw it." ”

"That's right. The three of them nodded in unison.

In the wine street in the north of the city, A Xiao and a few people crossed half of the city and came to this place they hadn't been to for a long time.

The symbol of the wine street is the Chen Family Distillery, and now the half-old flag of the Chen Family Distillery is honestly hung on the bamboo poles, and the gate of the wine shop has long been closed, but even at night, you can still smell the faint smell of sake lees in the air.

Xu Lai pointed to a small shop behind the winery and said proudly: "Look, I said that it hasn't been closed yet!"

The small shop has not closed at this moment, and the candlelight can still be seen in the store, still maintaining the same habit as when Granny Chai was alive, and the small wonton stall wooden cart is still at the door, and the white gas that comes out from time to time seems to be a sign that it is still open.

"If it's open, I'm afraid that today's wontons will be sold out!" Su Jie said worriedly.

"What are you afraid of, just go over and take a look?" Fan Yan glanced at him.

"Let's go, no matter how much, let's talk about it in the past!" At this time, Ah Xiao felt that the white gas coming out of the car had turned into big wontons full of soup, and when he took a bite of it, the juice and the meat filling blended together, melting in his taste buds!

A few people approached, and a woman about forty years old came out of the room, and when the woman saw these four "scattered teenagers", she was stunned at first, and then reacted: "It's so late, you still come to eat wontons?"

"You must have just come back from the big show, didn't you? ”

"Uh-huh, what else?" Su Jie spoke first: "If you have one, bring us three large bowls and one small bowl!"

Xu Lai looked at Su Jie with some resentment, and the small bowl was naturally ordered for him.

"Actually, I can still eat a big bowl. He whispered.

The woman also laughed when she saw this scene, she lifted the bamboo basket, glanced at the remaining wontons inside, and counted them with her hands, and then beckoned: "Four people, just about the same, come in first and sit down, I'll serve it to you later." ”

The four of them also entered the house, this room Ah Xiao had been here many times, but he had not been here at night.

Ah Xiao looked at the back of the busy woman next to the stall, as if he remembered the old man from before, and he asked, "Auntie, why don't I know that your stall is still open these days? ”

"Yes, I didn't think it would be opened, I haven't seen you doing business here on weekdays, and I'm still thinking that I wontons from this stall will never be able to eat this stall again!" Su Jie asked.

"Uh-huh!" Fan Yan lay on the table, also expressing his opinion.

"Ah, Shicai hasn't looked carefully yet, are you Ah Xiao?" The woman smiled and put the wontons in the pot, stared at Ah Xiao carefully for a while, and then looked at Fan Yan with interest, and then asked, "Then you are Fan Yan?"

Ah Xiao and Fan Yan nodded, and the woman nodded when she saw them, then looked at Su Jie and said, "Then you must be the son of the Su family." ”

"As for your ......" The woman looked at Xu Lai on the side and said with a smile: "Aren't you the child of the Xu family who was chased by your father!"

Xu Lai scratched his head and laughed a few times.

"I'm a married person, I don't come back much on weekdays, I stay in Rong Town, you don't see much, naturally you don't recognize me, and now that my mother is gone, I will move back. ”

"So, how do you know a few of us?" asked Fan Yan curiously.

The woman recalled: "My mother once told me that there are several dolls who often come to her to eat wontons, and they have told me their names I don't know how many times, but as long as you know one, the most beautiful one must be Ah Xiao." ”

"There is only one girl among the few people, that is Fan Yan, and there is a very strong child, which must be the son of the Su family. ”

"Hey, people say you're the prettiest ever!" Fan Yan poked Ah Xiao with his finger in a low voice, and his face bulged like a small bun.

Ah Xiao knew that Fanyan was deliberately angry with him, but he felt that Fanyan was very cute at this moment, and couldn't help pinching Fanyan's little face.

After adding the last few sticks of firewood to the stove, the woman fanned it with a rotten fan, and when she saw that the fire had already risen, she turned around and smiled: "My stall is not open during the day, so you naturally don't know." ”

"Don't open it?" Ah Xiao was puzzled.

"Do I have to do things on weekdays, my mother is guarding her own little stall, but she is very comfortable, and she has nothing to worry about when she leaves, but I still have to make money, I still have to do things during the day, after all, how much money can I make by selling wontons?" the woman clapped her hands and sat outside looking at the stove while smiling.

"Then you're selling it at night?" asked Su Jie.

"That's for sure, I have two children in my family, they are older than you, and I see that I am about to get married, and I have to ask for a lot of money to marry my daughter-in-law, on the other hand, my mother left such a small shop, and I am reluctant to lose it. ”

Ah Xiao nodded, and was about to say something, but Xu Lai was still worried about Su Jie's fact that he only gave him a small bowl, and said in pieces: "I'm still shrewd, otherwise we wouldn't have come here, Su Jie, you treat me like this?"

"That's it?"

When the woman saw him like this, she was immediately happy: "There is no business today, everyone has gone to the dock to listen to the big show, I will give you all the rest of the wontons, enough for four large bowls, maybe more." ”

"Hehe, thank you, auntie!" Xu Laixiao's eyes narrowed, like an old fox who had succeeded in his conspiracy.

After a while, the woman lifted the lid of the old pot and let out a long shout, "The wontons are ripeβ€”"

The woman brought out a big bowl of broth from the house, skillfully added nearly twenty wontons to it, sprinkled with a dozen green onions, and the green onions alone were a little monotonous, and the wonton shops elsewhere did only have green onions, but this stall was different, and some dried sea vegetables would be added here, so a bowl of good wontons was served.

The same action again, the woman brought four bowls of wontons, the bowl was a large bowl with blue and white background, and the wonton was a meat-filled shallot soup wonton, Ah Xiao looked at the bowl, the wontons were floating up and down in the soup, the green onions were floating on the soup, and the sea vegetables were dancing in this small space.

Carefully scoop up a wonton, blow it slightly with your mouth, and when you take a bite, the soup and meat filling crack and splash in your mouth, and your taste buds are fully occupied by the flavor of the food, and the cravings in your stomach are greatly satisfied.

"Delicious!" Ah Xiao said with emotion.

"Uh-huh. Fan Yan stretched out a thumbs up, with a green onion on the corner of his mouth, and agreed.

Ah Xiao laughed while eating, Fan Yan's appearance, Ah Xiao really wanted to laugh, the green onions at the corners of her mouth were like matchmakers' moles, which greatly damaged her image, but Fan Yan didn't seem to care much about the image, she ate and screamed, as a girl, there were no etiquette taught by Mr. in the school at all.

"What are you laughing at?" Fan Yan looked up from the bowl and looked at Ah Xiao in confusion.

"Nothing, nothing. Ah Xiao hurriedly lowered his head and pulled a wonton into his mouth.

"Humph!" Although Fan Yan didn't know what Ah Xiao was laughing at, he always felt like he was laughing at himself, so he directly stretched out his hand and twisted Ah Xiao's thigh.

"Ouch!" Ah Xiao still couldn't stop shouting out.

"Xu Cai, what are you staring at my bowl for?" On the other side, Su Jie looked at Xu Lai vigilantly on the side.

Xu Lai licked his chopsticks and said pitifully, "I want to see how the wontons in your bowl are different from mine." ”

"!" Su Jie pushed him away.

"Hahahahaha......" The voices of the young man and the girl rippled like water waves under the moonlit night, through the shadow of the stall car, through the reflection of the cypress bamboo on the window lattice, through the figure of the corner on the stage, and spread far away.

The moonlit night was shining, and the figures of the four people were connected in a string.

"It's delicious, ...... away" Su Jie burped.

.........

Indeed, after that day, Ah Xiao has never eaten such delicious wontons, and has never seen such a good drama again.

Until the boy left Jianyi City and started his long journey, he had never eaten this taste of wonton again.

Maybe it was the hunger at the time, or maybe it was some other factor.

Many years later, in the largest pear orchard in the imperial capital, the black-clothed guards slowly leaned forward and reported the recent situation to the big man in front of them, the beautiful young man who was lazily leaning on the Taishi's chair.

"It's strange and individualistic that this person is sleeping here. The black-clothed guard stepped forward, but he was very curious about this adult in his heart.

The only one who can sleep and fall asleep in the Jinghong Pavilion in the dignified imperial capital may be the young man in front of them.

The beautiful young man opened his eyes and raised his waist slightly, but his eyes looked at the bewitching woman dancing the sword on the stage, and asked, "Where is the performance now?"

"Lord Hui, this is the most famous Murong Lady in the imperial capital, known as the first sword dance. The black-clad guard replied respectfully.

"Ha......" The pretty young man yawned and gradually closed his eyes again.

"It's not interesting. ”

"It's not interesting. His voice was soft, like a dream.
