"Wow - there are enough of them today. On a stone step in CITIC Square, Li Yu looked at the crowd surging in front of him and couldn't help but bared his teeth.

In front of him, the square of tens of thousands of square meters is full of all kinds of food stalls, the stalls are divided into 'rows', there are about dozens of stalls in each row of queues, and the interval between the two rows of stalls is about seven or eight meters for visitors to pass.

The interval of seven or eight meters is almost enough to catch up with the general county lane, under normal circumstances, not to mention pedestrians, even driving is no problem.

But at today's food exhibition, these seven or eight meters wide intervals are crowded with tourists who come to watch and taste the food, although it is not as easy as the level of shoulder to shoulder, but it is not easy to squeeze into the stalls.

"Tut-tut, the income of these stall owners in the past two days is estimated to be half a year smaller than that of normal days. Lei Qilian looked at the stalls and said with a sigh.

Li Yu nodded, the cost of the booth of this food exhibition was completely borne by the magic capital, and the turnover of the booth deducted the labor expenses of the ingredients and one or two helpers, and the rest was all real net profits.

Then, Lei Qilian pointed in a direction and said: "There are few people here, let's take this road, turn left at the top and just see the exhibition samples, basically from the Magic City Hotel, I have seen the exhibits of our Xingyue Hotel, which is not bad." ”

With that, he took Li Yu down the stone steps and walked into the crowd.

"Baked cold noodles, baked cold noodles——, thirty-year-old brand, you will applaud after eating!"

"Rock sugar gourd——, authentic imperial capital rock sugar gourd——"

"Inner Mongolia roasted whole sheep, fat and tender lamb meat, roasted and sold!"

A burst of shouting came into the ears of the two, these voices are not beautiful, and even a little rough and irritable, but with this scene of crowds, it has a special taste, and almost every tourist has an inexplicable smile on their faces.

Lei Qilian took Li Yu to watch while walking, and after walking for about seven or eight minutes, he stopped in front of a stall.

He took out his mobile phone and looked at the time, turned his head to Li Yu and said, "Xiaoyu, it's almost twelve o'clock now, let's put something on the line?"

"No problem, it's good that you decide. Li Yu nodded briskly, and then he touched his stomach: "Coincidentally, I'm also a little hungry." ”

Lei Qilian smiled when he heard this, and then he pointed to the stall in front of him and said, "Then let's eat this, let's say okay, I'll have a treat, don't rob me." ”

With that, he turned around and walked into the stall, and Li Yu hurriedly followed.

The area of the stall is not small, there are four or five temporary tables in the back, just at this time a table of guests has eaten and left, and a waiter of the stall stepped forward to clean up the dishes and chopsticks, and politely invited Lei Qilian and Li Yu to sit down.

He was about to ask the two of them what they wanted to eat, but Lei Qilian spoke first: "Little brother, please come to two bowls of Shuangqing noodles, two bowls of ice powder, and three or two noodles in one bowl of mine, Xiaoyu, you..."

Li Yu took over: "I'll also have three or two sides, put more capers." ”

The waiter said yes, wrote down the name of the dish and went to the front to find the stall owner.

That's right, Lei Qi and Li Yujin's stall sells Shuangqing's famous snack - Shuangqing noodles.

Shuangqing small noodles are one of the four characteristics of Shuangqing City, the price is low but the materials are exquisite, and the noodles must be made of local alkaline water, which is very tasteful.

Shuangqing people's love for Shuangqing noodles is no less than hot pot, Li Yu once stayed in Shuangqing City for a period of time, got up early in the morning, the street noodle stalls are particularly prosperous, although the hall is not well decorated, and there is not even a hall - the beauty at this time never takes into account her ladylike image, eating it is a fragrant oh, the gentleman in a suit and leather shoes, also put down the briefcase, huh-huh-huh, three times five divided by two to eat a bowl of Shuangqing noodles.

In front of the noodle stall, men, women and children - there are white-collar workers, peasant brothers, primary school students, etc., all kinds of people gather together, regardless of life experience, regardless of status, for a bowl of Shuangqing noodles.

Seeing that Li Yu said sour beans, Lei Qilian understood that Li Yu was by no means a stranger, and he asked a little strangely: "Xiaoyu, have you eaten Shuangqing noodles before?"

Li Yu nodded and said, "I went to Shuangqing a few times during the university holidays, so I was very impressed by Shuangqing. ”

In the four years of college career, whether it is the Golden Week of May 11, or the summer and winter vacation, the original body has almost never relaxed, and all of them are used to work to make money - sometimes in the magic capital, sometimes when he works well, he will run to other places, and after four years, almost no one knows his specific whereabouts during the holiday.

In this way, it gave Li Yu a good cover-up, at least on some ordinary questions, a sentence of 'I went to XX place to work in the summer, so I also ate XXX' can perfectly round the words.

For example, this time, after learning that Li Yu had been to Shuangqing City, Lei Qilian didn't ask anything more.

He is the heir of the 'sect' traditional culinary skills, and he knows the various rules and regulations of the master-apprentice model or the inheritance of the family model, so he will not ask Li Yu where his cooking skills come from, after all, without considering the outrageous brain hole of rebirth, it is nothing more than the possibility of having a master master or getting a certain recipe inheritance.

Either way, it belongs to the category that cannot be said lightly - to put it bluntly, it is a vain question to ask. Lei Qilian, an old man who has lived for more than seventy years, will not fail to understand this truth, so for a long time, he has tried to avoid touching Li Yu's line.

Anyway, as long as you know that Li Yu is not a traitor, this is enough. Lei Qilian could see that Li Yu, like him, had a big heart and good conduct, suitable for being his grandson-in-law... Oh, thinking far away.

Soon, the waiter walked over briskly with a dinner plate, there were two large two large and two small four bowls on the plate, the big two bowls were Shuangqing small noodles, the red ones were all chili oil, which was extremely appetizing at a glance, and the small two bowls were one of the special snacks of Sichuan Province - ice powder.

Ice powder, also known as cold powder, is made of false sour pulp (a kind of herbaceous plant), cold and sweet, tender and refreshing, shengjin relieves the heat, cools and reduces the fire, in the end of this hot summer, eat a bowl of cold powder, it is a word, cool!

After the noodle bowl was served, Li Yu waited for Lei Qilian to get off the chopsticks first, and then he also picked up a small noodle with chopsticks and stuffed it into his mouth, there was no air conditioning around the temporary dining table, plus the red chili oil in the small noodles, and soon a lot of sweat broke out in front of Li Yu and Lei Qilian's foreheads.

Just as the two of them were feasting, a shout suddenly came from not far away.

"Don't bully people!"

PS: CQ City was changed to Shuangqing, no way, I was warned, the reason should be understood.....
