Chapter 439: An unexpected reunion
"The street eateries here are still very good, especially the beef noodle shop. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć Zhang Chao pointed to a humble shop next door, where he had eaten their signature beef noodles with Irelia.
It was wartime, but the stubborn restaurant owner was reluctant to give up his ancestral beef noodle soup, which was said to be constantly simmered and never stopped.
And if they brought it to the road, they couldn't do it with their family's financial resources, so they stayed.
However, his children and wives packed up their belongings and went to the north, not ruthlessly, but to keep their roots.
Speaking of the customs of the Ionians and the Chinese, they are actually very similar, but many Ionian names are still biased towards Western and Japanese, and there are still relatively few Chinese names.
"It smells good, but the beef noodles are ...... Well, noodle soup is still quite rare in Noxus. Nanyin sniffed with interest, feeling like her saliva was about to come out.
Because it wasn't wartime, the city of Preschidian still had a lot of foot traffic, and this nameless restaurant attracted many regular customers for decades thanks to its good reputation and affordable prices.
Zhang Chao feels that for these residents living around the restaurant, the so-called noodle eating is not necessarily noodles, and there are memories hidden deep in his heart.
The vicissitudes of the sea, the world is unpredictable, and a few decades can be regarded as a long time for many people, except for the Star Spirits, Dark Spawns, Ice Veins, Ascendants, and gods and other otherworldly beings.
When everything has changed, only the taste of the beef noodles remains the same, and even the price has not changed.
Dozens of simplely dressed peasant men squatted or sit, holding large enamel bowls, sucking and eating sweetly.
During the banquet, they chewed garlic or talked loudly, this kind of behavior may be quite unqualified in the eyes of many so-called superior people, but it is better than lively, and the four of them are not the kind of hypocritical people, and they walked in carelessly.
As soon as the four of them sat down, the proprietress came over enthusiastically: "What are the four guest officers doing?"
She rubbed her greasy hands on her apron, and then laid out a somewhat rudimentary menu with bamboo engravings.
The proprietress was not good-looking, but the smile on her face was particularly warm, Zhang Chao had never seen the proprietress before, but she was quite impressed by her simple husband who was a little wooden.
"Four bowls of beef noodles are fine. Zhang Chao smiled and said emphatically, "To be full, add a handful of coriander, sprinkle with chopped green onions, and put aside some sesame oil that my brother squeezed himself." ā
The proprietress smiled: "I thought that the little brother came to our house for the first time, but I didn't expect that ordering food was a professional." ā
Nan Yinqi said: "Sister, you have so many guests every day, can you still remember who is a fresh face and who is a familiar face?"
The proprietress smiled heartily: "How can any fresh face come to a stall like ours, how many years have been such a person, no matter how bad my memory is, I won't even remember this." ā
Nanyin's eyes lit up when she heard this, she crossed Erlang's legs very familiarly, took out a cigarette and took two puffs, and then gave her a few moves, which was a bit of a scolding artistic conception.
But seeing that although the proprietress listened, she just smiled and did not say anything, and with the arrival of the guests at the other table, she greeted and left.
Zhang Chao said: "You don't need to give them advice, if you really want to become bigger, how can they save a lot of savings over the years, and it is still easy to open a store in the business district in the east of the city." ā
Rui Wenqi said: "Why is that?
Zhang Chao said with a smile: "What they make is not noodles, but feelings, this boss was unwilling to manipulate this business anymore, but their noodle soup ...... For many years, I have been used to boiling, adding fire, and charcoal. ā
"He can't stop. ā
At this moment, there was a sound of horses' hooves, and there was an exclamation in his ears, Zhang Chao unconsciously raised his head slightly, and saw that familiar face.
"It's Miss Irelia. ā
"Good day, Miss Irelia!"
"Miss Irelia......"
People didn't seem surprised, but greeted her with smiles on their faces, and she had always been very popular in Prestian.
It was a very beautiful girl, wearing bright red armor, with a face like a peach blossom, with two points of warm red, the corners of her eyes slightly upturned, and her straight eyebrows were like sharp swords, and she slashed diagonally - what a heroic Valkyrie!
He had thought of this face for countless days and nights over the years, but at this time, he had actually thought about coming to see him these days, but finally gave up this somewhat unrealistic idea.
Because Irelia had clearly never seen herself at this time, if he met her, wouldn't it change the historical trajectory of his own acquaintance with her in later generations?
It's just that now, in this nameless beef noodle stall, he met her unexpectedly.
"Damn! what a beautiful woman!" Nanyin gasped.
The crow's face was slightly red, and he hurriedly lowered his head and muttered: "Women are as fierce as tigers, women are as fierce as tigers, don't look, don't look at ......"
Rui Wen frowned and looked at Zhang Chao with a complicated face: "What's the matter?"
Zhang Chao smiled and lowered his head: "She's one of my ...... Very good, very good...... Friend. ā
Rui Wen's face changed slightly, she felt that Zhang Chao's mood was very wrong, so she asked, "How is it good?"
Zhang Chao's face was a little bitter, and he said in a deep voice: "She said she wanted to marry me, and I agreed......"
Snap - the chopsticks fell to the ground.
Rui Wen lowered her head, her short snow-white hair covered her eyebrows, she let out an "oh" and bent down to pick up the pair of chopsticks.
But at this moment, the heroic woman had already come to her and picked up the chopsticks for her.
"Do you mind if I sit here?"
She asked, but saw that at this time, Zhang Chao lowered his head and buried his head deeply, and Rui Wen had almost the same expression, as for the crow, she was completely blushing and had a thick neck, and she didn't say why.
Nanyin, who still vaguely felt that the atmosphere had become very delicate, hurriedly replaced the other three who were silent: "Of course." ā
"Hello, Miss Irelia. Zhang Chao suddenly raised his head and greeted politely and distantly.
Nanyin was a little surprised, because he felt that Zhang Chao's voice had become a little hoarse, and it could even be said that it was like two people in the past, and then took a closer look, good guy, his current appearance is completely different from the past, except for the familiar colors in those eyes, it is clearly another person.
"Boss, it's still the same. Irelia waved to the busy hostess.
She asked tentatively, "Where are you from, I don't think I've seen you here before?"
Nanyin was about to speak, when Zhang Chao replied: "We are from the southern jungle, we used to be hunters for a while, lived in the mountains for a while, and then began to travel in Ionia. ā
