The road conditions along the way are not bad, but the speed is not particularly fast, this is not Xiong Ziqiang considering Chen Kangjie's safety, but there is no high-speed to Deying County here, taking the national highway, the national highway at this time is completely the provincial road standard after 20 years, and the Mercedes-Benz car can not play a special xìn book mí group 2
It's not too boring along the way, the window view is good, especially after passing the jurisdiction of Guangzhou, although it is winter, but the early winter in the south is only a little cooler, and the mountains are still green, not like the north, and it is sallow yellow at the end of autumn, giving people a sense of desolation.

However, the farther north he went, the more nervous Chen Kangjie became, not because he had died on this road, but the closer he got to Deying, Chen Kangjie felt closer to Li Tingyan, his heart was beating rapidly, and he was suffering from gains and losses. On the one hand, he wanted to see her, and on the other hand, he was a little scared in his heart.
After Fogang County, the road conditions became worse. Before his rebirth, when Chen Kangjie came, he was at high speed all the way, and a first-class highway was also built from Fogang to Deying, which was fast and stable.
Chen Kangjie did not know that the first-class highway connecting Fogang and Germany and Britain - the Yingfo Highway was started in 99 years, and it was not repaired until 04 years, and it was stopped for a year in 01 because of lack of funds. It's the end of the 90s, and the road conditions are naturally not too good.
Xiong Ziqiang drove for more than four hours, bumpy all the way, before bringing Chen Kangjie and them to Deying County.
Northern Guangdong is a backward region in eastern Guangdong, and investment has always been concentrated in the delta region of southern Guangdong, resulting in a very strict polarization, which has not been resolved after 20 years. The reason for this is that because northern Guangdong is a mountainous area and it is inconvenient to get through Jiāo, most of the young people in northern Guangdong choose to work and start businesses in the delta region.
Chen Kangjie observed with great interest the county town of Deying at this time, which was almost unrecognizable compared to the Deying city in his memory. Most of the houses on the street are low-rise tiled houses, and even if there are some buildings, they are not tall and old. The whole county was dusty, and the roadside was not full of street trees as in later generations. Because he was driving, he didn't pass by the station where Chen Kangjie left last in his previous life.
"Sister Siying, do you want to eat something in the county seat?", Chen Kangjie saw a small restaurant on the side of the road, so he said.
In order to hurry, except for breakfast in Hong Kong in the morning, they did not rest and eat in Guangzhou, and everyone should be a little hungry now. Device: No advertising, full text, more lime shop is only 24 kilometers away from the county seat Chen Kangjie remembers, but he doesn't know if he has food when he goes back, so he still thinks it's good to add a little here first, so as not to go back in case there is nothing to eat, bringing unnecessary trouble.
Dong Siying should also be hungry, Chen Kangjie just mentioned yì, and she nodded a few times.
Pulling over to the side of the road, the five of them walked into the nameless diner. The boss may have seen Chen Kangjie in the window that they had parked, not only the car was good, but several people were also quite decently dressed, no matter how bad the boss's vision was, he also knew that it was a rich man who patronized the business, and hurriedly instructed the boss to come to receive him.
The proprietress smiled and looked very hospitable, and after beckoning Chen Kangjie to sit down, she poured tea for everyone first, "Bosses, what do you want to eat?"
It's all Hakka here, Chen Kangjie can't speak, but he can still understand a little, when he came to Deying with Li Tingyan before, he still exercised for a month several times. However, he has never spoken Hakka, and even if he does, he will only use Li Tingyan's usual mantra "What are you doing?", which is the only Hakka that Chen Kangjie can speak.
"Sister Siying, you can order it, you are the landlord, you are more familiar", Chen Kangjie said modestly.
In fact, Chen Kangjie really doesn't know what to eat, the most famous place in Deying is Jī, and their Jī is famous in the entire eastern Guangdong Province, but unfortunately Chen Kangjie is really not used to eating. In the past, when I came here with Li Tingyan, I ate jī almost every time, and it was very light jī, and once I ate more than 20 meals in a row during the Chinese New Year, and Chen Kangjie was scared when he saw jīròu for a whole month. Don't say it's jī, even if it's bird's nest abalone, such a way to eat it will be extremely counterproductive. In addition, Chen Kangjie really doesn't know what suitable local food there is.
"Then I'll order it, in fact, you don't know how to speak Hakka, right?" Dong Siying said with a sly laugh.
Not being able to speak Hakka was one of the reasons, but when it was pointed out, Chen Kangjie could only scratch his head and express embarrassment.
Seeing Chen Kangjie looking so cute, Dong Siying, as an adult, of course it is not good to continue to be sarcastic.
Dong Siying ordered a few things to eat, and no one was polite, so they rolled up their sleeves and started eating. Chen Kangjie didn't remember the others, and he didn't have any impression, but she ordered a Kowloon huā tofu and a tea porridge, Chen Kangjie thought it tasted good, and he basically only ate these two, he was very strange, why hadn't he eaten this thing when he came to Deying before.
After eating, the boss came to settle the bill, Chen Kangjie was going to give it, Dong Siying said that this is her land, and she must do her best to be a landlord, anyway, there is not much money, so Chen Kangjie will not rob her.
"Boss, how do you make this tea porridge and Kowloon yellow tofu?, why does it taste so good?", after Dong Siying paid the money, Chen Kangjie asked curiously.
You don't have to listen to the accent boss to know that they are out-of-towners, so they sit down on a stool and proudly introduce them slowly.
It turns out that the workmanship of the tea porridge is quite complicated, it is to use chūn to divide the mountain tea leaves picked before and after the Qingming Dynasty, first wash the tea leaves with water and put them into the tooth basin, clamp the tooth basin with a large tuǐ, hold the tea stick in the hand, turn it around, reverse it, wipe it on the side, rub it at the bottom, and after the tea leaves are rotten, then add an appropriate amount of water and huā raw oil to make a tea pulp. Depending on your taste, you can add sesame seeds, fried huā, mint, tangerine peel and other condiments. Chen Kangjie added these kinds of things to his diet. Then it is to cook porridge, when the rice is seven or eight ripe, use a wooden spoon to scoop up two-thirds of the rice dregs, the porridge water should be thin, and it is best to shine a human figure. After the white porridge is cooked, pour it into the tooth basin containing the tea syrup, then add the rice residue just scooped up, add salt and stir evenly, and a meal of tea porridge with a unique flavor is complete.
It is said that there is also a tea song: "The Hakka people enjoy happiness, two meals a day to make tea porridge, two tuǐ clamp the tea basin, both hands to the body 'Yuyu'" (swing, shake the meaning).
The practice of Kowloon yellow tofu is not simple, on the one hand, it has a lot to do with the geographical environment of Kowloon, the mountains and rivers are beautiful here, the water used to make tofu is not polluted by a trace of mountain spring water, and the alkali xìng is larger, the taste is sweet, plus jīng is processed from high-quality soybeans, yellow leaves and other raw materials; on the other hand, it has been passed down from generation to generation for thousands of years, and has reached the perfect craftsmanship.
The Kowloon that the boss is talking about here is not Kowloon in Hong Kong, but Kowloon Town in Deying County, the craftsmanship of making zuò, the boss did not say it in detail, and Chen Kangjie is not very clear. Anyway, the Kowloon yellow tofu made is light yellow on the outside and white on the inside, which can't help but make people salivate.
After the tofu is done, it can be paired with different methods, such as steaming, frying, frying, stewing, etc., Chen Kangjie eats it with frying, and the yellow tofu is fried slightly for a while over slow fire, and the skin is browned, the skin is crisp and refreshing, and the inside is smooth and fragrant.
After listening to the boss for almost half an hour, the sky had already darkened, and Chen Kangjie and the others got up to say goodbye.
"I didn't think that there was also food in Germany and England," Chen Kangjie said with emotion.
"What do you mean by "also"? There is, but you don't know", Dong Siying was a little disdainful of Chen Kangjie's loneliness.
"Yes, yes, there is, but it's a pity that it's the first time I've eaten it", when he said 'the first time I ate it', Chen Kangjie's voice was low, and he had a sense of loneliness.
After another hour of bumpy driving, Xiong Ziqiang drove the car to a bridge in Lipu Town and stopped under the guidance of Dong Siying, and Dong Siying said "It's here".
At this time, it was already dark, and everyone got out of the car and followed her relatives' house, only to know that the grandfather he was talking about was not his own grandfather, but her grandfather's younger brother, and her own grandfather had died. The old man lives alone in the town, and I heard Dong Siying say that her grandfather has a son who has not come back from serving as a soldier for many years, and he doesn't know his life or death and whereabouts.
Dong Siying brought a lot of gifts to the elderly in Hong Kong, with food and clothing, and the old people didn't know that Dong Siying was coming, so they didn't prepare their meals. At this time, unlike in later generations, you can still make a phone call or something, now only the town government and the post office have telephones, fortunately Chen Kangjie had the foresight, otherwise he would have to cook freshly, that is not more hungry.
"Sister Siying, were you here when you were a child?", seeing that Dong Siying was very familiar with this place, Chen Kangjie asked with interest.
"Yes, I have lived here for ten years, and I only went to Hong Kong with my mother when I was ten years old", after speaking, Dong Siying added a naughty sentence "smuggling".
Chen Kangjie gave her a thumbs up, "It's amazing, you can be a smuggler at such a young age"
"No way, there was no reform and opening up at that time, and the normal way couldn't go at all, my father had been there for a few years in advance, and our family couldn't be separated like this all the time", Dong Siying's tone was also sad, maybe she had suffered a lot because of her long-term separation from her father when she was a child, and she was smuggled to Hong Kong.
"It can't be swimming, right?" said Chen Kangjie with a luxurious smile.
Chen Kangjie knew that many stowaways swam through Pengcheng Bay to Hong Kong in the seventies and eighties, so he asked naughtily.
"Swimming, you can figure it out, I'm only ten years old, how can I swim? What's more, I didn't know how to swim at that time, we came by boat from South Australia, and there were snakeheads over there who did this," Dong Siying could only scoff at Chen Kangjie's idiotic question.
"Hehe, I think it's okay, anyway, you have a home return permit now, and it's legal to visit relatives."
"It's up to you to say, huh."
(Recently, there have been a lot of good books in the Otherworldly Continent type, and I found another one, "Xuanjie", I've been reading it, and if you like it, you can raise it first, and you stew it in a pot.)
