Yesterday, Wu Xiaofan didn't go out to eat in the end, and got up early this morning, not woken up by the alarm clock, but was woken up by hunger, packed up his things indiscriminately, took his luggage and went out directly to find food, fortunately, the breakfast shops opened early, otherwise he would go home hungry, and walked to the store where he usually eats, and found that it was also open, so he started shouting before he went in.

"Lao Liu, hurry up and mix me with some powder, and then have a crockpot soup, remember to put the noodles spicy. ”

Mixed noodles and crockpot soup is one of the characteristics of Hongcheng, mixed noodles are rice noodles put in boiling water to heat and then put on a plate, and then according to their own taste, put in chopped pepper, peanuts, diced radish, edible oil, soy sauce, green onion and other condiments to mix. Crockpot soup has a long history, according to legend, originated from the end of the Song Dynasty, completely using the folk traditional simmering soup method, the crockpot is made of earthenware, according to the effect of the soup, refined with different foods, plus natural mineral water, and then put into a 1-meter radius of the giant vat, with a hard charcoal fire constant temperature traditional six-sided heating, simmering up to more than 7 hours, the process is 160 °C simmering for 2 to 3 hours, then cooling to 120 °C simmering for about 2 hours, and then slowly simmering with a simmer. After a day of slow simmering, it becomes a thick and fragrant tonic.

I've been hungry for more than a day, so I definitely need to make up for it.

Lao Liu, the owner of the breakfast shop, looked up.

"It's Xiao Wu, why is it so early today, you sit down first, and it'll be fine right away. ”

Lao Liu beckoned as he put the rice noodles in boiling water and soaked them, and then shouted to the inner room.

"Old woman, come out and bring Xiao Wu some soup. ”

After a while, a kind old lady walked out of the inner room, and when she saw that it was Wu Xiaofan.

"Xiaofan, it's a little early today, where are you going. And carrying a bag. ”

Wu Xiaofan usually eats breakfast in this shop, and he is familiar with these two old people when he comes and goes, and when he usually has nothing to do, he also comes to help, clean up the table, and fight or something, in fact, Lao Liu has always said that he is in the way, but he helps back, but he doesn't think so.

Mr. and Mrs. Liu have no son, he himself said that he has a daughter, but he works in the field, but he has never seen him, according to the old man Liu, his daughter is very powerful, in a multinational company listed in Shanghai to do management, but also married an executive.

His daughter also wants to take the second old man to care for the elderly, but Lao Liu feels that it is not as good as his own home, and now his health is not bad, and the two couples opened this breakfast shop in their hometown, only selling mixed noodles and crockpot soup, the soup is still limited, and I don't have to drink it when I go late.

Wu Xiaofan also asked why he didn't make more, so that he could sell more, and Old Man Liu replied in a deep voice, "Rare things are expensive." ”

However, Old Man Liu really has a hand in making crockpot soup, the soup is thick and fragrant, there is a hotel in Hongcheng that claims to be the most authentic crockpot soup, after drinking, I feel that there is still something missing. I also asked Lao Liu, and Old Man Liu said with disdain.

"They can compare with me, I am an authentic crockpot soup, the technology is passed down from ancestors, and it used to be a must in this city. ”

Wu Xiaofan once asked him why he didn't pass on this technique, even if your daughter didn't like it, she could pass it on to herself.

Liu Lao didn't answer him, just smiled wryly and shook his head, but the old lady interjected, "Xiaofan, you are good, smart, and very energetic, but unfortunately you were born a few years late." ”

"Why is that?" Wu Xiaofan asked puzzled.

"Your uncle's skills are ancestral, not women, inside but not outside, I have been with your uncle for so many years, he didn't teach me, if you were born a few years earlier, it is quite compatible with my daughter." ”

"Hehe......"

……

"Xiaofan, I don't think your complexion is very good, drink some Tianma black chicken soup and make up for it. Wu Xiaofan saw the old lady bring the soup over, and hurriedly got up and took it.

"Oh, old lady, be careful, I'll do it myself. ”

Looking at this thick and fragrant black chicken soup, it makes people appetite greater, and this stomach growls even more.

"Lao Liu, you can't just break the inheritance of this technique in your hands. Wu Xiaofan sighed while drinking the soup.

"Why, you kid wants to beat me up again. ”

"Look at what you said, I'm also thinking about you, if this technology is broken, it will be a sinner!"

Uncle Liu glared at Wu Xiaofan, but didn't say anything.

The old lady was working next to her, while watching where the two grandchildren were bickering, she enjoyed this atmosphere very much, at her age, she should have enjoyed the blessings of her children and grandchildren at home, but her only daughter worked in Shanghai, also settled there, and gave birth to a beautiful and lovely granddaughter, but the old man was really not used to living on his daughter's side, so he had to come back and open this small breakfast shop, so as not to make the two lonely at home, since Wu Xiaofan broke into their lives, she found that the smile on her old man's face was more.

"Haha, Xiaofan, your words poked your uncle's sore spot again, every time I called my daughter, I urged him to give birth to a grandson as soon as possible to inherit his craftsmanship. ”

"Boy, your mix is ready, come and serve it yourself, do you want me to send it to you personally?"

Wu Xiaofan saw it, quickly got up, and ran over to take the bowl in Lao Liu's hand, "Oh, don't do this, I'll do it myself." ”

Lao Liu was not polite to him, and sat next to him and smoked.

"I said, boy, you're carrying a bag here, are you going to a far away?"

"No, I haven't been back for a long time, so let's go home. ”

"I like you kid this, your parents are not young, go home and see more, it's not far away. ”

"What you keep saying is ......"

……

Wu Xiaofan was eating and chatting with the second elder.

Chatting and chatting, my mood suddenly felt a little low, listening to the old man's accusation against his daughter, watching the old lady silently holding tears next to her, and her mouth kept defending her daughter.

"Isn't my daughter busy with work? My daughter wants you to go and live with her, but you dead old man says you can't get used to it. ”

"Can you live in the habit, every day to shut up in the house like a bird. ”

Wu Xiaofan thinks about his parents, it was good to have a job before, since the second elder left home last year, the phone call has also been diligent, and he said every time that he was busy with work and had no time to chat, so he hung up after a few words in a hurry, but the second elder said every time, "It's okay, your work is important, you usually pay attention to rest, don't be tired."

Now that I think about it, I am really busy at work and don't have the time to connect to the phone?

Wu Xiaofan likes to chat with the second elder, chatting with the second elder, and feels very warm. Unconsciously, there were more and more people eating breakfast, and they also got up to help the second elder do some work.

"Xiaofan, don't be busy, you should take the morning car, it's almost time, go and take the car." ”

Wu Xiaofan saw that the time was almost up, so he said goodbye to the second elder directly, took a taxi to the train station, Hongcheng Railway Station is not very big, plus it is not a holiday or anything, and there is no queue like a big city to get a ticket, and enter the station directly after getting the ticket, and the car that happened to be sitting by himself was queuing up to enter the station.

The train is still a green car, the train staggered for more than three hours, and finally arrived at the small county town where Wu Xiaofan is located - Luxi, Wu Xiaofan took a deep breath after getting off the train, and couldn't help but sigh.

"The air at the train station is the same everywhere. ”

As soon as I got out of the station, I saw all kinds of taxis, two-wheeled, three-wheeled, and four-wheeled, Wu Xiaofan picked one with two wheels, negotiated the price, and delivered it directly to the door.

Wu Xiaofan's house was built with funds raised by his parents' school ten years ago, it is relatively old, and the exterior wall has peeled off in many places, but in his opinion, this house is still very pleasing to the eye, because there are people closest to him living here.

"Mom, open the door, I'm back. ”

"Don't you have the key yourself?"

"Isn't this a desire to see you as soon as I open the door, wow, Mom, you're ready for lunch." ”

As soon as I entered the door, I saw the fragrant dishes on the table, all of which I loved to eat. Don't worry about it for now, just get started.

"Mom, your cooking skills are on the rise again. ”

"Wash your hands and go. Wu Xiaofan didn't dare to resist.

Seeing that my son likes to eat his own dishes, I am still very happy.

"My dad, haven't you come back from going out to play chess? By the way, Mom, why are you calling me back in such a hurry?"

Wu Xiaofan asked while washing his hands.

“……”

"Mom, did you quarrel with my dad?" Wu Xiaofan asked cautiously.

"Your dad watched TV well that day, and suddenly said that he was going to change to a new TV, saying that he wanted LCD, I didn't agree, saying that this TV can still be watched, and your dad was not happy, you said that your dad, since he retired, has always been against me, this is not, that is not, this old immortal. ”

Looking at his mother's angry appearance, Wu Xiaofan found that he was very happy, usually his mother has a weak temperament and rarely gets angry about something, in fact, he understands in his heart that after these two retire, you look at me and I look at you at home all day long, maybe I haven't seen each other so much in most of my life before. Alas, this is all retirement trouble!

"Mom, Dad wants to see the LCD, can you change it for him? You have to ask me to come back, okay, I'll buy you one tomorrow." ”

"What to buy, this TV has only been bought for a few years, do you have a lot of money and have nowhere to spend it? ”

Wu Xiaofan had mixed feelings in his heart, and his parents saved food and money all for themselves, but as soon as he heard the back, he felt that it was wrong, and he couldn't start a fire, so he immediately transferred and said.

"So where is my dad now?"

"Your dad ran away from home. ”

I heard my mother say something lightly, but Wu Xiaofan was a little confused when she heard it.

"Running away from home?"

"Well, I went out after a few quarrels the day before yesterday, and I didn't come back. ”

"No, Mom, what are you doing here? You didn't call, didn't you ask him where he went?"

"Your dad didn't have a phone, how can he call. ”

Wu Xiaofan was a little anxious now, he felt that his mother's heart was too big, a big living person was gone, and she was still so calm.

"No, Mom, you have to call and ask Dad's friends and relatives if he went to someone's house. ”

"Son, what kind of eyes do you have, do you think your mother is so ruthless? Don't worry, your uncle is calling, and your father is back in his hometown, at his house. ”

"Oh......"

Wu Xiaofan's brain was a little confused, the plot became a little too fast, and he felt that his brain couldn't turn around.

"What's the daze, hurry up and eat, and after eating, you go back to your hometown to see. ”

"What am I going back to my hometown for?"

"Go back to your hometown to see your dad and ask if your dad is still coming back, or what do I want you to do when you come back." ”

"Mom, is this what you called me back for this time?" Wu Xiaofan asked uncertainly.

"Or else?"
