Chapter 216 Snot gourd

Director Wei, who came with the license plate, had already changed into civilian clothes.

Seeing that the time was already four o'clock in the afternoon, Director Wei told Chen Weizheng that the following work was both public and private, and the official business was to send Chen Weizheng home, this place was very remote, and even taxis could not be taken. The private matter is to go home, tomorrow is Chinese New Year's Eve, and the annual leave officially begins.

Director Wei's family lives in Fengtai, and when he asked Chen Weizheng where he lived, Chen Weizheng himself didn't know what district or road he was in, so he knew that it was probably in the southern suburbs, so let Director Wei ignore him so much and find a place with a taxi to drop him off.

After walking for about an hour, the car entered a large taxi port, and Director Wei said that this place was a fork in the southern suburbs and Fengtai, and he could only send Chen Weizheng here, and the next road was for Chen Weizheng to explore by himself. Chen Weizheng thanked Director Wei, got out of the car with a few license plates wrapped in newspapers, and threw the license plates into the finger as soon as he got out of the car.

Called Ren Sui, said where he went, how to return to Cuizhuyuan, Ren Sui said that he was eating roast duck in Quanjude, in a parking lot called Lujiaying in the southern district, and asked Chen Weizheng to take a taxi to the Lujiaying parking lot.

Chen Weizheng found a taxi and said to go to the Lujiaying parking lot, and the taxi driver looked at him like a ghost and said, "Brother Bing." You play with me! This place is the Lujiaying parking lot, where do you let me go? ”

"This is the place! Where is the Quanjude roast duck? Chen Weizheng asked.

"That's the right question!" The taxi driver said, "You have to walk, if you take a car, you can't get there, it's not enough for the starting fee." But it's also a lot of work to walk, do you see the overpass in front of you? Gotta get over there, and then ...... It's hard to say, you give ten dollars, I'll send you there. ”

Chen Weizheng was happy, took out ten yuan and handed it over. Sure enough, it's close, but it's a detour, and it's even more unclear.

Ren Sui waited under the building, saw Chen Weizheng, greeted him, and walked into the restaurant. This is a very traditional cultural decoration of the shop, it looks very cultured, and the family asked for a small box, the size is appropriate. On the twenty-ninth day of the new year, there are not many people, but if you want to sit here at this time tomorrow, you must book a seat three months in advance.

The cuisine is very basic, with duck as the main food. After studying the recipes for a long time, I ordered 1 Quanjude high-quality roast duck, 2 drawers of homemade lotus leaf cakes, 8 sweet noodle sauces with green onions, old Yanjing tofu, Laojie stewed, iron plate fish fragrant miscellaneous mushrooms, steamed scallops with garlic vermicelli, peanuts mixed with fungus, miscellaneous grains and wowotou, and old fire soup.

To continue ordering, the waiter told me that the dishes in the north are large and filling, unlike the southern dishes that look good and are not clamped, and three times and two times are a plate. Chen Weizheng asked if he could bring his own drinks, and the waiter said that if the hotel had some categories, it would be best to consume them in this hotel, and if not, let the guests bring their own. Chen Weizheng felt that the waiter was very reasonable, so he ordered two bottles of Feitian Moutai in the store, and the waiter told the guests that each bottle was 2,500 yuan, which Chen Weizheng thought was not expensive and acceptable.

Chen Weizheng asked where he was going to play today, and Liu Yi said that he went to the Summer Palace to see the snow and the throne of the legendary Concubine Yi. Chen Weizheng asked, how do you feel? Liu Yi said that the snow in the Summer Palace is really beautiful, and she has a strong sense of belonging to the Summer Palace, and she feels comfortable staying in it. Chen Weizheng asked Ren Sui with a smile if there was a hotel in the Summer Palace, and if so, let Liu Yi stay for a few days. Ren Sui said that there should be none, and no one dares to live there, there, after the sun goes down, it is a cloud of yin energy, except for the evil spirit of the old queen mother, who lives in it, and if you don't get it right, you will let these things be violated.

Lu Wei said that if you let the chaos scare people, how can there be such a thing.

Chen Weizheng said to Liu Yi that it was too cold now, when would summer come, take her to the Summer Palace to camp, and see if she could meet the fierce spirit of the Queen Mother or meet the beautiful concubine. Liu Yi expressed deep regret that Chen Weizheng couldn't go to the Summer Palace to see the snow today, and said: Husband, what meeting are you going to have today, I haven't seen such good snow in the Summer Palace.

Chen Weizheng told her that today's harvest was not small, she was promoted to a first-level official, and she was also selected as an advanced worker.

Liu Yi said: There are still people who believe in promotion, and it is absolutely impossible to be selected as an advanced worker! Wandering around Qingshan every day, you can also walk out an advanced worker, unless you ......

Before Liu Yi finished speaking, Chen Weizheng took out a red and glamorous certificate from his arms, and he was really an advanced worker.

"Brother, you've really been promoted." Ask as you like.

"Really." Chen Weizheng said: "I didn't expect that after being promoted to colonel, the unit is still in Qingshan and the capital, where I love to stay on which side, no one beats me for attendance." ”

"Oh my!" Ren Sui sighed: "There is such a good thing, how can I not meet it." ”

The family happily finished eating a slice of duck, Chen Weizheng and Ren Guoan Ren Sui finished solving two bottles of Moutai, went home, and Lu Wei drove.

When I wake up, it's Chinese New Year's Eve.

The evil capitalist has to work half a day on Chinese New Year's Eve, and after work, Ren Sui and Lu Wei went to the supermarket to buy some local dishes, mainly because Lu Wei considered that there were four male classmates who came together for the New Year, afraid that the prepared dishes would not be enough, so Qin Juan and the four male classmates went over first, so as to help Li Jing do something.

Today's supermarket has become a semi-finished product market, if you are not particular, if you are not picky, you can buy a complete set of Chinese New Year's Eve banquet in the supermarket, even if you go home to process it will not be too troublesome. When he came to the supermarket, Lu Wei first selected a large piece of donkey meat in sauce, as the saying goes, dragon meat in the sky and donkey meat in the ground, there are not many things in the south, and there is a representative surname as a northern dish. I chose another four-joy ball. Sixi meatballs are a dish often eaten in China during the New Year's holidays, also known as braised lion's head, which is taken from its auspicious meaning. This is a famous dish of Huaiyang, there are fat and lean meat ruddy and oily, with green vegetables to cover, bright color and tangy fragrance, just look at it to arouse the appetite, mellow and fragrant meat pieces and juice, is irresistible top delicacy. The supermarket's Sixi meatballs are mostly semi-finished products, and when you get home, you only need to add an appropriate amount of water to the casserole, put in the fried meatballs, green onion and ginger slices and Sichuan peppercorns, add the dark soy sauce, cook thoroughly, and remove it. Then continue to boil the remaining soup in the casserole, add water starch to thicken, drizzle sesame oil, and pour it on the balls.

Vegetarian dumplings are the custom of northerners, although southerners also eat dumplings during the New Year, they are definitely big meat dumplings. Northerners eat vegetarian dumplings, what they want is the word "vegetarian", ordinary people's families, hope that there will be no big ups and downs in the new year, peace and security, "vegetarian quietly for a year".

At this time, Lu Wei saw a special dish, assorted vegetables, also called ten kinds of dishes, which is a special dish of Jinling, which means that no less than 10 kinds of vegetables are fried, and more than ten kinds of vegetables also have their own sayings. The sound of shepherd's cabbage is like "gathering wealth", which means attracting wealth; The pronunciation of celery is similar to "diligent", taking the meaning of "hard work and getting rich"; Daylily means in the mood for flowers and a bright future; Shiitake mushroom means "harmony and beauty"; Even the thousand pieces of soy products have the saying that "thousands of generations and generations are prosperous". Although the assorted dishes in the supermarket are far from those in Lu Wei's hometown, the taste of her hometown still makes her can't help but buy a big bag.

"Enough!" Ren Sui said: "Enough! As long as my brother is here, don't worry about not having good food. ”

Chen Weizheng did not purchase at this time, but enjoyed the snow in the old alley of Houhai.

Chen Weizheng came to Houhai to enjoy the snow completely because of Liu Yi's bewitchment, early in the morning, Liu Yi opened the tablet, looking for the most worthy place to enjoy the snow in Yanjing, and wanted to accompany Chen Weizheng to enjoy it, there is such a passage on the Internet, which mentioned Liu Yi's interest. "It is said that the Hutong is the most Yanjing characteristic, and when it snows, the Hutong is also to be visited. The snowy alley has the atmosphere of old Yanjing, and you can hear the cry of an old man sharpening knives around a corner, or meet a young man pushing a cart of red sugar gourds walking by. Yanjing Hutong is relatively well-preserved in the Houhai area, the most typical area is Nanluoguxiang, there are eight symmetrical alleys in the east and west, shaped like centipedes, so it is also called 'centipede street'. When it snows, you can feel the life of ordinary people in Yanjing the most, and you are the most down-to-earth! ”

When I arrived in Houhai, I found that the reality was far from the case. The snow on the ground has long been trampled into mud, the last remaining snow has been filled with cars, and only the thick snow on the roofs of the alleys still tells people that it once snowed here. I can't hear the cry of the old man who sharpens the knife, the old man who sharpens the knife has gone home for the New Year, and it is not a young man who walks by pushing a cart of red sugar gourds, but a sloppy old man, because of the cold, dragging the snot under the nose, occasionally wiping it with the back of his hand, pulling up a bright one, and almost not reflecting the rainbow.

Chen Weizheng said: "If this snot is smeared on the sugar gourd, is it more translucent!" Liu Yi smashed Chen Weizheng with hatred and said, "I will never eat sugar gourd again!" Chen Weizheng laughed, Liu Yi didn't eat sugar gourds, it was not his own loss.

Houhai is Houhai after all, which is full of hundreds of years of cultural precipitation, has a cultural atmosphere of nearly 1,000 years, and embodies the customs of old Yanjing everywhere. walked around Houhai Snack Street, and finally Chen Weizheng and Liu Yi bought two meat rolls and rice balls, laughed while eating, and went to the capital to eat some of the flavor of the capital, but they did it for a long time and ate a devil's rice bag, it seems that this cultural invasion is everywhere.

The city began to hear the sound of firecrackers, the roadside stalls began to clean up, the shops began to close, people are ready to celebrate the New Year, after all, the New Year is the most important festival in the hearts of the Chinese, no matter whether there is money or not, whether there is food or not, get together, it is reunion, go home!

Chen Weizheng found a few catties of shrimp in the space, a piece of mackerel, and a few big crabs, which were all harvested at the beach half a year ago, and they have not moved in the fingers, the freshness in the space is first-class, the shrimp are boiled, the mackerel is fried, and the crab is steamed, but the ginger and shallots should be fried. Take out another case of Moutai, which is the main drink of the evening.

Chen Weizheng gave the taxi 200 yuan, and the other party agreed to send them to Cuizhuyuan, there were no repeat customers, and the empty car also cost fuel.

Pushing open the door, I was surprised to find that there was one more person in the house.
