Chapter 14: The Pig and the Cabbage
Yunxiao casually found a place to park the car, the two got out of the car, and the cool breeze in front of them was blowing, Yunxiao couldn't help but be surprised, I really didn't expect that there was a cave here.
The willows by the lake, the cicadas chirp constantly, the breeze blowing from the center of the lake is refreshing, and there is a street around the lake, small stalls are everywhere, and restaurants and supermarkets are also available.
The crowd around is slightly crowded, mostly some migrant workers in dirty clothes, with sleeves and bare shoulders, with traces of time on their faces, after a hard morning, a bottle or two of cold beer, just a home-cooked side dish, and then sleep comfortably, is undoubtedly a good way to rest.
The streets are noisy but not hot, and the two of them are particularly conspicuous in the crowd in their formal clothes, and they are frequently eye-catching, Li Wanqiu seems to be very familiar with this place, pulling Yunxiao around and around, and finally entered a store called 'Hujia Malatang'.
The business is excellent, the waiters in the original white but blackened aprons wander back and forth, and on the trays are bowls of spicy hot soup, white steam wafting into the air, and the room is full of tempting aromas.
Li Wanqiu took the lead, just walked in, the original hustle and bustle in the house was quiet, looking at the beautiful woman in front of her, both men and women became a little sluggish, the guy also found out that something was wrong with the good food, turned his head to the door to look, saw that it was Li Wanqiu, suddenly laughed in surprise, and shouted to the house without thinking: "Boss! Madame! Sister Qiu is here! ”
Li Wanqiu raised her hand, she couldn't stop it for a while, and couldn't help but sigh helplessly.
There was a noise in the kitchen, and a woman ran out of it, forty or fifty years old, who was already dyed frost white, and asked happily, "Wanqiu?" Wanqiu is here? ”
A friendly smile appeared on the corner of Li Wanqiu's mouth, and she shouted: "Sister-in-law Hu!" ”
"Hey! Hehehe! You stinky girl, you haven't come back for so long, don't you hate that the food I cook is not delicious? ”
The woman was wearing a very simple coarse cloth shirt with a flower apron around her waist, which was half wet, and she stepped forward and grabbed Li Wanqiu's little hand, her face was full of the most joyful smile, but her mouth began to complain.
"Where? I can't get tired of cooking cooked by Sister-in-law Hu for the rest of my life! It's just that the company has been busy lately, and I don't have much time, and now I'm just free, isn't this coming? Li Wanqiu clenched her palms and said a little coquettishly.
Sister-in-law Hu twisted her head and looked at it, and said in a somewhat reproachful tone: "No matter how busy you are, you have to eat a good meal?" Look at you, the whole person has lost a circle, or else! I'll go to your house tomorrow to cook, okay? Make sure to raise you to be chubby for nothing! ”
Li Wanqiu smiled bitterly: "Then my Uncle Hu is not angry with me?" ”
"How dare he?!"
Sister-in-law Hu was talking, and a forty or fifty-year-old uncle came out of the kitchen, with an old face, and when he saw Li Wanqiu, he also grinned, and smiled honestly and generously, presumably it was Uncle Hu that Li Wanqiu said.
Li Wanqiu said hello with a smile, but Sister-in-law Hu shifted her attention to Yunxiao behind her, and asked in surprise, "Who is this young man?" ”
Yunxiao was put aside early in the morning, and at this time he also saw that the relationship between Li Wanqiu and this noodle restaurant was not ordinary, and when he heard her ask, he hurriedly greeted: "Sister-in-law Hu, my name is Yunxiao, and I am a colleague of Minister Li." ”
"Oops! Hello boys! Look at this young man, how energetic he looks! ”
Yunxiao smiled, he didn't look bad, although he was not too handsome, but his eyebrows and eyes were very positive, especially when he laughed, he was as gentle as the boy next door, his eyes were shining, he had practiced martial arts for many years, and he was fit and strong, so that his whole person was full of spirit!
Sister-in-law Hu is the first time to see Li Wanqiu bring someone over, and she is a man, she can't help but look at these two people with strange eyes, this look, it really has a bit of a golden boy and jade girl, this can make her happy, she has no intimate person in her life, she regards Li Wanqiu as her own daughter in her heart, she is almost thirty years old and does not have a boyfriend, can you not be in a hurry?
At that moment, Sister-in-law Hu pulled Li Wanqiu over and laughed softly: "This young man is good!" It's pleasing to the eye! ”
That tone, with saying that this pig is good! Fat! As if he almost said, 'You cabbage should loosen the soil too!' Li Wanqiu's white face instantly turned red, and she explained anxiously: "Sister-in-law Hu, what are you talking about?" He's just my colleague! ”
Sister-in-law Hu laughed when she heard this, and said with a smile: "En! Colleague! I know! Aren't they colleagues? Ha ha...! ”
This kind of thing is just more and more chaotic the more it is explained, if it were someone else, Li Wanqiu could have pretended not to hear it, but in the face of the clouds, all kinds of feelings suddenly appeared in her heart, and she was speechless for a while.
Sister-in-law Hu looked at the sky again, and her eyes couldn't help but reveal a hint of a mother-in-law looking at her son-in-law, and said diligently: "Quick! Come in! Come in! The private room in the back room is reserved for you! Dad! Slippery! Two bowls of noodles and remember to beat five eggs! ”
The big man behind him responded happily, turned around and went into the kitchen to get busy, Sister-in-law Hu dragged one in one hand, hugged Li Wanqiu and Yunxiao like a small couple, turned the counter, lifted the curtain, and entered a small private room, with a separate air conditioner, cleaned up very clean.
"You guys wait for a while! It's still busy outside, Wanqiu, I'll talk to you later! ”
Li Wanqiu was not polite, nodded and smiled: "Sister-in-law Hu, go get busy first!" Leave us alone! ”
Sister-in-law Hu agreed with a smile, and didn't forget to greet Yunxiao when she left: "Young man, don't be polite, Wanqiu girl here is familiar, look for her if you have anything, or call me, I'll be outside!" ”
Yunxiao hurriedly agreed, Sister-in-law Hu looked at him with a grin, the more she looked at it, the more she liked it, and she was a little reluctant to leave, and finally was pushed out by Li Wanqiu with a red face, so she gave up.
For a while, there were only two of them left in the room, Yunxiao was nothing, looking east and west, a little curious, but Li Wanqiu, somehow suddenly felt a little weak, grabbed the kettle on the table and poured two cups of tea, and drank it in one gulp, only to find that the cup was not very clean, like this kind of rural restaurant, dust is inevitable, raised his head and saw Yunxiao pick up the cup, and couldn't help but feel embarrassed.
"People in the city love to be clean! This is common sense, not to mention that he is still an international student from a prestigious university, how can he drink this water? Li Wanqiu secretly said in her heart, suddenly a little uncomfortable, in order to avoid embarrassment, she just wanted to stop it, but she didn't expect that Yunxiao would pour it directly, and there was nothing left!
Yunxiao was a little thirsty, poured another glass, and saw that Li Wanqiu had some certificates, and couldn't help asking, "What's wrong with you?" ”
"Ahh Not... It's okay! Hehe! ”
Li Wanqiu came back to her senses, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but show a smile, with the purity and nature unique to the mountain village.
"Are you curious about why I know about this place? If you want to drink, you can go to one of the high-end five-star hotels in town, so why should you come here? And you are so familiar with this hostess? Li Wanqiu asked with a smile.
Yunxiao shrugged: "A little! ”
A trace of memory flashed in Li Wanqiu's eyes, a little sad, but more of it was a sweet coming after the bitterness: "In fact, in my heart, even if it is the most luxurious hotel in the world, it can't compare to the simple and simple restaurant in front of me, really!" ”
Li Wanqiu brushed the cracked desktop, the black and oil-stained corner of the table, and said with a smile: "In my life, the most difficult time was spent here, this place is full of my memories, I cherish it!" ”>
