Chapter 0499: Fanwai: You're good
Locals generally don't eat the so-called well-known brands.
It's all fooling outsiders, and it's expensive.
Naturally, they can find that kind of good place to eat on their own. I went to a place that is not very large, but it is very clean and confidential.
The boss knew Zhuang Jiaojiao, and smiled: "I'm here, I'll book a private room for you?" β
"Okay, I'll go up and sit down by myself." Zhuang Jiaojiao said.
Upstairs there are large and small private rooms, the big one is that there are four tables inside, but they are separated, and if you don't look at it deliberately, you don't know who is next door.
But it's not completely sealed, and you can hear it.
The small private room is two tables and is also separated.
The upstairs is twice as large as the downstairs.
They found a table for four, exactly two tables. It's still early, and there are not as many people at noon as there are at night.
Soon the waiter brought the stove up. The lamb is scalded and snow-white.
There are ginger and green onions in it, and a few peppercorns.
Zhuang Jiaojiao called Zhao Tuodian.
Zhao Tuo was not too polite, just looked at the signboard and ordered a few things, and estimated that he ordered vegetables for Zhuang Jiaojiao.
The seasoning is simple, sesame paste, leek paste, fermented bean curd, minced green onion and coriander, sesame oil.
This is the standard for northern mutton shabu.
in multiple chili oils.
Let's work.
The boss also carried a pot of barley tea, and the teapot was the same kind of teapot, which looked particularly old.
"I'll call someone to go next door and ask for two old yogurts?" The boss asked Zhuang Jiaojiao.
"Okay, thank you boss." Zhuang Jiaojiao said.
"You're welcome, you pay the bill yourself hahaha. Call your parents next time. The boss said and went downstairs.
Zhao Tuote looked at Zhuang Jiaojiao in surprise: "You guys are so familiar?" β
Mainly, he had the impression that a goddess like Zhuang Jiaojiao should only eat Michelin or Japanese French food or something like that?
How can you have a good relationship with such a small shop owner? Do you know your parents?
"It's been a few years since this shop was opened, and my grandmother loves it. The first time I ate it, it was she who took me, and the previous owner of this shop was this boss, and his father was sent to a relatively remote place. It just so happened that my grandmother wasn't archaeology, so they went there. At that time, ten years was actually over, and his father couldn't come back because he offended people. It just so happened that there was a person in my grandmother's team who had acute appendicitis, and the place was out of place, and there would be no car for a while. The boss's father carried the man all the way to the county seat to save his life. β
Later, when everyone heard what happened to him, they helped him out and transferred him back. Later, a few years after the man came back, he opened this shabu mutton, which was not here at first, it was a smaller faΓ§ade. But the taste is ok. My grandma is old. β
Later, when the man was old, his son took over. My grandmother later had high blood pressure and didn't eat much of this. But my parents like it too, and I like it too, so I come often. β
"That's right, I think you're amazing." Zhao Tuo praised sincerely: "I knew you at the beginning, I admit that I was shallow, and I thought you might be a star or something." Later, I thought that you must be the kind of person who only wears high-end luxury, and then eats only in high-end restaurants. Anyway, it's hard to think that this shabu mutton or something like that has anything to do with you. But the more I came into contact with it, I found that I was still shallow. β
"I didn't expect me to be so smoky?" Zhuang Jiaojiao laughed: "Actually...... This is where the disagreements between me and Carey began. His family was a Swedish aristocracy. It's the kind of ancestor who may have produced a duke and earl. Although his family is also in business now, it still has that kind of tradition. You know, England, there are a lot of children of the so-called nobility in those schools. At that time, he and I were just classmates. β
"Then he came to China and we were together. He just can't understand that I like to eat these. Or, he thinks, as an elegant lady, I don't need to fight for a so-called career at all. He thought that if I married him, I could be a noble lady who only bought jewelry or had afternoon tea and took two breed dogs shopping. β
"Even, my family is well-off, and it shouldn't be like this. I went to act out of interest, and I really didn't want to be a star. But for him, it is incomprehensible. He really didn't understand why I had chosen so many strange things. You know, I studied architecture and finance. Even what I'm doing now, he can't understand. β
"He doesn't deserve it! He just wants a vase, right? Zhao Tuo frowned.
"Maybe, I don't deny that when we were together, we did have a very happy time. I don't want to deny him. It's just that we're really not suitable. β
"You certainly deserve better! Don't be sad about him...... He's not good. Zhao Tuo wanted to scold a few words, but he still held back.
"I'm not sad, I really just suddenly found out that we have no feelings...... Actually, I'm kind of cold. Zhuang Jiaojiao said.
"Actually...... You know my stepmother, right? She was a college student of that era, and the college students at that time knew that it was not easy. When she first married my father, she lost her job because of something at home. Some people say that she has a sugar daddy or something, after all, my dad was divorced twice at that time and had two children. β
But she was firm and didn't care what people said. Later, she divorced my father, and divorce was ...... for women at that time She's pretty resolute anyway. Then she will do a lot of things, drawing, embroidery. There was also a time when she wanted to grow vegetables, so she planted them right in front of our house. My second brother said her, and she didn't pay attention to it. Then she didn't like it again. She also learned Latin dance. My dad always talked about her, but he also supported her. Recently, she has become obsessed with making desserts, and she said that she will make desserts live in the next step. β
"I don't know if I'm right, but I don't think it's fun to live the same life as a man or a woman. You know how many times my dad got divorced and ended up being with my stepmom again. Among them, I think my stepmother's personal charm is a big reason. After all, the divorce back then was also because my second brother was troublesome. β
Zhuang Jiaojiao smiled: "It's good." β
This stupid man, is this a metaphor for his stepmother?
"Don't laugh, really, I just think it's good that you're like this. Outstanding. Well...... I think you're so down-to-earth and only thinks you're ...... It's cute, not like you are vulgar or something. That Kerry...... Well, I won't speak ill of him, probably because he is a nobleman. So the idea is different. My family is nouveau riche anyway, so I think you're good. β
Zhuang Jiaojiao smiled, and with chopsticks, he sandwiched a piece of mutton and put it in the bowl: "Taste it, it's delicious." β
