【Chapter 212】 Jiangnan Food (Ask for Subscription!) )

After lunch, Wei Tingting took Xiao Qiang out of the old mansion to see the scenery of Ancang Ancient Town, and secondly, to avoid the overly enthusiastic clansmen.

There is no way, Wei Tingting is the first clansman in her generation to find a foreign uncle, and the other cousins and sisters are all solved in Huiji, and several generations later, there are very few Wei family members who marry outsiders, and Xiao Qiang, as the first, naturally attracts much attention.

You must know that even Wei Tingting's mother is from Haizhou, but in fact, her ancestral home is also Huiji, and her hometown is in a town not far from Ancang, so she already knows the roots.

No, when Xiao Qiang was at home, there were always clansmen with various excuses who came in to see Xiao Qiang, chatted with him, and satisfied their curiosity. Fortunately, Xiao Qiang is a big man, if he is replaced by a new daughter-in-law, I am afraid he will not be able to resist it for a long time.

Even so, Xiao Qiang was a little struggling, without him, the Mandarin of the Wei family had a thick Ancang accent, Xiao Qiang could only listen attentively, and did not dare to relax at all.

"I'm tired!" Walking on the bluestone paved street, Xiao Qiang let out a sigh of relief.

Like Ginkgo Village, many of the buildings in Ancang Ancient Town were built decades or even hundreds of years ago, full of traces of time, which made Xiao Qiang feel a familiar atmosphere.

Compared with Ginkgo Village, Ancang's popularity seems to be much higher, after all, it has more than 30,000 permanent residents, and with the tourists coming from all over the world, the Sparsely populated Jinghu area is much more lively.

"Do you feel like I'm at your house for the first time?" Wei Tingting took Xiao Qiang's hand and said with a smile: "That time, the third aunt and six mothers-in-law of your family made me sweat!" ”

Aside from the first trip to Ginkgo Village, when Wei Tingting visited Xiao's house as Xiao Qiang's girlfriend for the first time, it caused a great sensation. After all, Wei Tingting and Xiao Qiang confirmed that their relationship was still before Xiao Feng and Xu Mengyao, and Wei Tingting was the first girlfriend from other provinces that the children of the Xiao family made.

In those two days, as long as Wei Tingting was at home, there were always people from the Xiao family who found all kinds of excuses to come to the old house to see the new daughter-in-law. Even when walking in the village, the villagers paid close attention to her.

This time, the roles fell one by one, and Xiao Qiang became the object of onlookers from the Wei family.

"Anyway, we have to go through this experience, so it doesn't matter if everyone is familiar with it!" Xiao Qiang waved his hand and said, "I see that there are a lot of delicious snacks in Ancang. You take me to eat! ”

At the dining table just now, Xiao Qiang, who was a little restrained, didn't eat enough at all, and it was a good idea to get some snacks while he was out for a walk.

"That's no problem, a lot of delicious things used to be my own private dishes. I can't eat it usually, but now that the number of tourists has increased, many people have made private dishes out to do business, and they can eat whatever they want! "Although Wei Tingting grew up, went to school and was a princess in Haizhou, she basically came back for a period of time every year, and she was also well aware of the changes in the town over the years, and it was naturally more than enough to act as Xiao Qiang's guide.

Ancang is built along the river. In front of many houses or in the backyard is a clear and winding river, and you can see various small bridges of different shapes everywhere, which is quite similar to the ancient town of Yaozhou. In the town, you can see old people lazily basking in the sun everywhere, and the relaxed and comfortable life atmosphere has not changed due to the influx of tourists, which is the same as Ginkgo Village.

Walking on the bluestone road of Ancang Ancient Town, Xiao Qiang felt that in addition to the different climate and architectural style, it was completely a complex of Yaozhou Ancient Town and Ginkgo Village.

What impressed Xiao Qiang the most was. Those sausages and bacon hanging under the eaves highlight the wealth of the Jiangnan region and also show a local characteristic!

Unlike the sausages made by the Xiao family, which are smoked with fruit trees and herbs, the sausages of Ancang use the principle of air drying, and the most characteristic soy sauce in the Huiji area is used in the process of making zuò, revealing a thick sauce.

Different from the slightly dry taste of Xiao's smoked sausage, Ancang's sausage is softer and glutinous. It's more flavorful, and it's a different style of food.

On top of the lunch just now, steamed sausages, plum dried button meat, clear soup Yue chicken, Huiji hemp duck and many other local specialties made Xiao Qiang full of praise.

Xiao Qiang, who grew up eating various delicacies made by Xiao Jinhao, actually has a strong appreciation for food, from his point of view. The food of Ancang is full of the delicacy of the south of the Yangtze River, and it is more exquisite in knife work and fire, full of strong water town flavor.

At a roadside stall, Wei Tingting made Xiao Qiang a heavy crispy baked cake, and she asked for a fennel bean, and the two of them enjoyed the scenery along the way while eating.

"This fennel bean is the fennel bean with four ways to write it?" Seeing Wei Tingting eating with relish, Xiao Qiang also threw two and chewed them in his mouth.

For Xiao Qiang, who has not yet known Wei Tingting and did not come to Ancang, the biggest understanding of Huiji is that he is the hometown of the great writer Mr. Zhou, and the background of many of his works is in the water town of Huiji. Fennel beans were originally a very common Jiangnan snack, but in Mr. Kong's mouth, fennel beans with 'four ways to write' have become the representative of Huiji snacks.

Fennel beans are actually a saying that broad beans are planted by many farmers in Yaozhou and Nanzhao, and there are still some villagers in Ginkgo Village who grow broad beans and sell them to tourists after being made into snacks. It's just that there are no celebrities like Mr. Zhou in these places, who have made humble snacks famous and become household names.

"When I was a child, I didn't have any money, and I could eat fennel beans for a dime for a long time, and they were the most popular with children!" Wei Tingting threw a fennel bean into her mouth and said: "The grandma who set up the stall just now had already set up a stall at that time, and 2o years have passed, and the taste has not changed at all!" ”

For Wei Tingting now, the snacks in her hometown are more of a memory, which carries her childhood and many of her happy times.

Every time she returns to Ancang, she likes to wander on these bluestone paved roads, stop on various stone bridges, and enjoy the tranquility of her hometown.

This time, with Xiao Qiang by his side, a sweet feeling lingered in my heart, and it felt great!

The two of them were eating a variety of snacks while shuttling between the bacon, and the stories behind the various old buildings along the way were also displayed in front of Xiao Qiang's eyes in Wei Tingting's explanation.

It is well known that the 'Huiji Master' was a special group in the late Chinese feudal society, and it played a very important role in the political system of the former Qing Dynasty. However, few people know that most of the 'Master Huiji' is from Ancang!

In history, there have been more than 20,000 'Huiji masters' whose original home is Ancang, and dozens of ancestors on Wei Tingting's ancestors have gone out to serve as masters. Her great-grandfather was one of the representatives of the last generation of 'Master Huiji'.

Walking in the 'Master Huiji' Museum, Xiao Qiang felt the heavy historical heritage, compared with the villages full of established Ginkgo Village, the Jiangnan area undoubtedly has more historical and cultural heritage.

When he met with Old Man Wei and other Wei family elders just now, Xiao Qiang had an obvious feeling, if it weren't for the fact that Xiao Qiang was forced to read a lot of ancient poems by the old lady when he was a child, he would have an understanding of Chinese culture. The first time I see Old Man Wei, I will make a fool of myself.

After eating the heavy crispy baked cake, Xiao Qiang came to another piece of osmanthus fragrant cake, the fragrant and soft glutinous osmanthus fragrant cake selected the snacks made of high-quality glutinous rice and osmanthus powder, which is one of the representative works in the Jiangnan region.

The best osmanthus cake has the characteristics of crisp and delicate, melts in the mouth, and the rich aroma of fried rice and osmanthus makes people want to stop. Compared with the heavy oil and spicy snacks in northwest Yunnan. This kind of glutinous snack is more suitable for the elderly, and Xiao Qiang plans to bring some back to the elderly at home.

In this way, the young couple held hands and wandered in Ancang Ancient Town, all kinds of food, beautiful scenery and good mood were intertwined, and the two of them almost forgot about time.

It wasn't until the sun set that the family called to urge them to eat, and the two of them had been shopping for several hours now. couldn't help but smile at each other and hurried home.

That night, the Wei family used the ginkgo ingredients brought by Xiao Feng from Haizhou to make several large tables of delicacies, and the delicacies from northwest Yunnan immediately conquered the Wei family, and even brought them a better sense of Xiao Qiang.

Hearing that Xiao Qiang's farm produces this kind of high-end ingredients, and the products are mainly supplied to five-star hotels and high-end restaurants in southern Yunnan and Haizhou, the Wei family looks at Xiao Feng differently.

At the beginning, most of the Wei family thought that Xiao Qiang was just a handsome reputation, but now it seems. His family background and his personal abilities are not bad.

Jiangnan has always been the region with the most developed and active private economy, and people are more accustomed to using economic strength to measure the ability of a person or a family. Xiao Qiang, as the executive vice president of a large farm with an annual output value of more than 300 million, whether he is in this position because of his family background or ability, has proved his strength.

With strong economic strength, it is naturally easy to gain the respect of Jiangnan people, which is also human nature.

It's not, at the dinner table. There are more and more peers toasting to Xiao Qiang, and Xiao Qiang's bold 'drink it all' drinking style has suppressed these Jiangnan students at once.

On the first day of arriving in Ancang, Xiao Qiang, the black charcoal head, easily won the favor and recognition of the Wei family, which cleared all the obstacles between him and Wei Tingting. Although the feelings of two people are not interfered with. But wouldn't it be better if you could be blessed by all the tribesmen?

Therefore, before coming to Ancang, Xiao Qiang had been mentally prepared to be embarrassed and embarrassed, but things went so smoothly that Xiao Qiang was even a little stunned.

Actually, this is also a very normal thing.

Xiao Qiangren is not bad-looking, and his aura is sufficient, coupled with the fact that his economic strength is strong enough, the clansmen of the Wei family will naturally not jump out to be bad guys. If Xiao Qiang is just a working boy, no matter how handsome he is, he will probably write sour words, but that kind of situation Xiao Qiang will never encounter.

After meeting the old man and the old lady, Xiao Qiang and Wei Tingting's engagement ceremony was about to be put on the agenda, and the two young people had no say in these issues, so they just waited to attend the ceremony.

Although they are a little unhappy in their hearts, but with the elders in charge, they can only be obedient!
