Chapter 77: Satisfying Hunger
Chapter 77: Satisfy your cravings
After taking a group photo, everyone got into Li Kangdang's car.
Because everyone will be dispersed tomorrow, Helan Mountain has chartered a seat in the farmhouse of Mingyue Villa in advance, so that everyone can feel the local customs of Dunhuang.
When I heard that the whole sheep was roasting, the atmosphere on the car immediately became lively.
"Jie, you said that you grew up in Dunhuang when you were young, so did you eat roast whole sheep when you were a child?"
Zhou Qingyang was the most excited one in the car.
Ouyang Jie was a little embarrassed by Zhou Qingyang's question, "Our conditions were not so good at that time, it would be good to be able to eat a leg of mutton, how can there be any roast whole sheep." ”
Zhou Qingyang made an informative expression, and then asked, "I heard them say that there are also roasted camels, how to roast them, you said that this camel is not small, right?" ”
Ouyang Jie pointed to Cao Yanyan next to him, "I've been away from Dunhuang for many years, and a lot of things are really not clear, if you ask Yanzi, she must be more comprehensive than we know." ”
Cao Yanyan has been playing with her hand rope since she got into the car, thinking about what Li Qiu wrote in the letter, and tears from the corners of her eyes slid down her face.
When Zhou Qingyang was about to call Cao Yanyan, Cao Yanyan was watching, and he couldn't ask out loud.
"You said that when this girl met on the first day, she had a lively personality, and since Li Qiu came back, she has become sentimental......" Zhou Qingyang's sigh was not finished.
Ouyang Jie turned his arm beside him, "Shhh, be quiet, I'm afraid that others won't hear you, let her be quiet alone." ”
As a person who has come from the emotional side, Ouyang Jie understands Cao Yanyan's state of mind very well at this time.
Many years ago, when Ouyang Jie was going to immigrate abroad with his family, he also thought about people like this, and his mood was similar to this.
Due to the lack of Cao Yanyan's participation in the topic, the atmosphere was not as active as before.
Shan Xin'er usually doesn't like to talk, most of them are asked by others, and she answers. This form made Bai Yu laugh and call it an answering machine.
After a while, Li Hatdang drove the car to Mingyue Villa, a farmhouse near Mingsha and Crescent Spring.
As soon as the group got off the bus, the owner of the farmhouse greeted them cordially.
"I heard that Lao He said that he came from afar with a group of friends, what a blessing, everyone please come inside. I am the owner of this villa, my name is Bai Dongxin, and they all call me Bai Shopkeeper. If you have anything you need, just ask for it in a moment. ”
Helan Shan got out of the car from another car, and just happened to bump into him, he came over and took the initiative to introduce Bai Dongxin to everyone.
"This is also the inheritor of our intangible cultural heritage, and his nine bowls and three elements are famous."
Shen Qingcheng had seen the introduction of nine bowls and three elements from the magazines of Fengwuzhi, but he had only seen it, and he had never eaten it.
Zhou Qingyang is most interested in the topic that he didn't finish talking about in the car just now, and he took the initiative to ask Bai Dongxin, "Shopkeeper Bai, I want to ask if you have roast camels here?" ”
Zhou Qingyang's question made Helan Mountain's eyelids on the side jump, he swallowed his saliva, and when he was about to speak, Bai Dongxin took the first step to speak.
"This distinguished guest is really knowledgeable, and our roasted camel is also a major feature of our Dunhuang. But you didn't have an appointment before, so ...... We have to make a reservation to roast camels...... After all, this camel will be roasted, and a lot of time will be wasted. Also, if you have a small number of people, you will waste it if you can't finish it when you bake it. ”
Bai Dongxin is also a native of Dunhuang, who speaks honestly and has no heart.
Zhou Qingyang also felt that he seemed to have crossed his identity just now, and he must have been advocating a working meal, not eating and drinking......
"Director He, I didn't mean anything else when I asked just now, in fact, we are already very luxurious when we roast whole sheep." Zhou Qingyang found himself under the stairs.
Helan Mountain was a little embarrassed, he hadn't thought about roasting camels before, but when he asked the price, he really couldn't pay the money.
Dr. Stephen stayed in the tent for a long time, and when no one entered, he hurriedly came out to call for people, but when he saw the crowd in a circle, he thought something was wrong.
"What's wrong with all of you, why don't you go in, what are you doing at this door?" Unbeknownst to Dr. Stephen, Dr. Stephen approached and saw Helan Mountain coming.
Helan Mountain hugged Dr. Stephen, "Old man, it's been hard these days. ”
Dr. Stephen was a little unhappy, and counted to Helan Mountain, "You, the dragon didn't see the tail, so you accompanied us on the first day, but you disappeared later." ”
Helan Shan scratched his head embarrassedly, "Didn't I make up for the big guys?" This table tonight is one of you that I invited out of my own pocket, there is no job status here, we are just old buddies here, new friends. ”
Because Chen Yuliang couldn't drink alcohol, the original mare's milk wine was also changed to barley juice.
"I heard that there are roasted camels in this house, why didn't you call one for us in advance, and let me satisfy my hunger." Dr. Stephen turned into a chatter after he appeared on Helan Mountain.
All of a sudden, several people at the table split into two waves.
The younger wave gathered around Shen Qingcheng and Shan Xin'er to ask about the Dunhuang Grottoes, the older woman was like Dr. Stephen, and Professor Chen Yuliang and Helan Mountain chatted about the interesting things of the past.
When Bai Dongxin sent the nine bowls and three elements, he almost couldn't bear to disturb the lively atmosphere in front of him.
Cao Yanyan saw it sharp-eyed, and was busy reporting the name of the dish on the side, taking the initiative to introduce it to everyone. "Nine bowls and three elements are here!"
Everyone tasted it one bite at a time, while listening to Cao Yanyan's explanation.
"Nine means extreme and auspicious in Chinese, and nine bowls represent a collection of flavors. And this line of words in the dish must be pronounced four times to reflect its sense of language and charm! Nine bowls of three elements are based on green vegetables, mutton steamed and stewed, pay attention to the combination of meat and vegetables, and pay attention to nutritional balance.
Nine bowls and three rows pay attention to symmetrical placement, horn meat to corner meat, door to door, meatball to ball, therefore, the dish will be the same. Guests don't need to spin the plate to taste all the dishes.
Generally, chicken nuggets are fish nuggets, and there are chickens and fish. The yellow stewed beef is the lamb stew, and the pearl balls are the braised meatballs. The curtain wrapped in egg skin is a silk wrapper.
The mattresses are also slightly different for each dish, with some using dried cauliflower, some using dried cowpeas, and some using pickled cabbage...... Different side dishes are covered with different dishes, and the taste becomes a variety of flavors, and the aftertaste is endless. ”
Bai Dongxin gave Cao Yanyan a thumbs up on the side, "Your explanation is really amazing, I have to let you record this in a while, and when I turn around, there are guests from other places, and I will put this introduction to them." Our service staff is not as good as yours. ”
Cao Yanyan was praised by Bai Dongxin, she was a little embarrassed, because the commentary on the tourism image film of Dunhuang that she had just done before had this introduction, and the nine bowls and three elements were the highest etiquette for receiving guests.
