Chapter 114: Traveling Together in the Hometown
"Knock knock, knock knock." I was woken up by a knock on the door, and I got out of bed, and saw Xiao Fang standing outside the door.
I hurriedly put on my clothes and opened the door, and she came in with a smile and asked, "Why do you sleep like a pig, what time is it?"
I opened the curtains, there was no snow outside today, the sun was good, and the reflection of the snow was already very harsh.
"Hurry up and wash up, I won't have anything to eat if I don't go out for breakfast."
"Well, look at it!" With that, I hurriedly went into the bathroom to wash my face and brush my teeth, and soon we packed up and went out together.
Xiao Fang took me to a shop that looked very old, and the door panel was very old, even if the lid was closed, it could leak, but it was full of people. We greeted an elderly couple and shared a table to find a place to sit.
Xiao Fang pointed to a wall and asked, "Look, what are you eating?"
As a result, I looked at it, what are you doing, it is all dialect vocabulary written in Mandarin, I still can't understand it after studying it for a long time, and I looked at Xiao Fang innocently.
Then she smiled: "Why, not hungry."
"Otherwise, what you eat, you order first, I just want one."
She laughed twice, then turned around and said a few words to her boss, and then turned around again.
I saw that one of the old couples next to me was eating something like rice cakes, and the other was eating some kind of soup made of meat, which looked like beef, and the two flavors should be one sweet and one salty.
Xiao Fang asked me, "Where do you want to play?"
"Of course, it's all up to you, you're more familiar with it."
"Then let's go to the Temple of Literature first, and go climbing the mountain in the afternoon? You can still see a reservoir on the mountain, and that's all there is to it. ”
"Okay, as long as I go with you, I can go anywhere."
After a while, the boss brought us two plates, one plate was similar to the old lady's cake, and the other plate was a kind of meat.
Xiao Fang said: "These two are the most distinctive breakfast we have here, try it."
I picked up a piece of meat and put it in my mouth, and I picked up a piece of cake and put it in my mouth, but I really didn't eat it. Xiao Fang just sat there and watched me eat, and didn't move her chopsticks.
"You eat too, I can't make you hungry when I'm full."
Then she picked up the chopsticks: "How is it, is it delicious?"
"It's okay, I've never eaten this kind of meat before."
"Of course, it's not everywhere."
"And what kind of meat is this?"
"Venison."
"Huh? Is that a crime? I asked in a whisper.
Xiao Fang smiled: "Why are you so timid now, don't worry, this is raised by a family."
As I ate, I said, "Don't say it, it's really delicious."
"That must be, people have been here for many years, and my grandfather used to eat here."
"I've heard people say that venison, like leeks, is an aphrodisiac." Before I finished speaking, the old man next to me spoke: "Hey, that's right, you little couples should eat more supplements."
The old lady next to me couldn't help laughing when he said this, and I looked at Xiao Fang embarrassedly, and now she just lowered her head to eat.
After settling the bill, we left the store, and Xiao Fang pretended to be angry and asked me, "You men, why are your minds full of that kind of dirty thoughts?"
"I don't, don't talk nonsense. And didn't you bring me to eat venison? I took her hand and slipped it in my pocket.
"I just think you haven't eaten it, you already know...... I wouldn't have brought you here if I had known. ”
"Don't, what's delicious, you can come, I won't pick strong or aphrodisiac."
Xiao Fang smashed my head with her other hand: "You still say!"
After a few steps, we reached the entrance of the Temple of Literature.
The Temple of Literature is not unusual, it is found everywhere in the country, and it is generally to commemorate Confucius, and this one is no exception. However, the building volume of this Confucian Temple is very large, and it is very rich in the characteristics of the architecture of the previous dynasties.
We walked around in the snow because the weather was good today, and the snow on the ground and on the roof began to melt, and we could get a lot of water on our feet if we were not careful. Xiao Fang stomped her feet while walking, wiping the water on her body, looking so cute.
We went out through the back door of the Temple of Literature, where the antiquities vendors were sold. In fact, it is said that it is a dealer of cultural relics, but in fact, everyone knows how much real and fake goods account for. Although I am not a connoisseur, I can tell at a glance what a fake is by the eyes of the cultural relics I have seen in Jinshi, for example, there is no such type, or it is deliberately old.
Xiao Fang said: "The cultural relics stalls here are usually set up on Saturday and Sunday mornings."
"Then it's here today, and it's specially opened for us."
"Nonsense, can't people make more money on vacation?"
"But will anyone really come here to buy it?"
"Of course, although it's not true, it's cheap, buy it back and use it as an ornament, you don't have business acumen at first glance."
"Then you follow me, but you will have a hard life."
Xiao Fang smiled and said, "It doesn't matter, I can support myself, you just don't starve to death."
As we walked, we soon arrived in front of a medium-sized school. Xiao Fang said, "Oh, this is my alma mater."
I looked inside, and there was nothing in particular, except for a patch of white snow on the playground, which was very dazzling in the sun.
"Hey, I remember a question." I told her.
"What?"
"You said you were so good-looking, and there were people chasing you when you were in school, right?"
She smiled and said, "Don't talk nonsense, how can there be such a thing, only you are blind and have to look at me."
"Then according to you, what do you think of me?"
"Hmm...... Count it as raising pigs, how about piglets, are you hungry? ”
She didn't say that I didn't think it was too small for breakfast, and I was indeed a little hungry after walking this part. She seemed to know my answer from the look in my eyes, and said happily, "Let's go, pig, let's go to lunch."
"Okay cabbage." By the time she had reacted, I had been far out of her range.
I followed her to a claypot restaurant, and as soon as I entered the door, the landlady greeted her warmly: "Fangfang is here?"
"It's been a long time since I've been here, do you remember me?"
"That's not it, they've all grown into big girls," the boss looked at me again: "Yo, you brought someone here today?"
Xiao Fang smiled softly, and I also said hello to the boss.
Xiao Fang said to me, "Come, all the recipes here are in Mandarin, look at what you eat."
I watched as the two of them chatted about their daily routines.
After we were seated, Xiao Fang said, "I used to go to boarding school, so I often came out to eat here, and this is my favorite one on this street." Over the years, I have come home when I have time, and I haven't been here for a long time, but there is almost no change here. ”
"Shouldn't claypot rice be Cantonese cuisine in Guangdong, and the boss doesn't have a Cantonese accent when he speaks, how delicious can it be?"
"Just wait, their family is absolutely good."
We sat in our seats and waited, and suddenly, someone patted Xiao Fang from behind, Xiao Fang was also startled, looked back suddenly, and almost cried out happily. That's what I just saw, a girl about the same age as us.
The girl said, "Miss Xiao, how can you be willing to come back today!"
"Come on, come on, sit down." Xiao Fang beckoned as she moved a place for her.
After the girl sat down, she said, "I passed by outside, and I saw a person sitting here who was very familiar, but I didn't expect it to be you." It's been a long time since I've seen each other. ”
"yes, I'll count, it's going to be five or six years."
"Yo, who's this handsome guy sitting next to you?"
"You stinky girl, do you knowingly ask?"
I also said hello to her, and Xiao Fang introduced me to me: "This is my high school roommate, called Liu Wen," and then she introduced Liu Wen: "This is my object, Zhou Hua, I met in college."
Liu Wen pretended to look at me carefully and said, "Tut-tut, sure enough, going to a good university is different, and the object is more energetic."
"What about you, you fell in love early when you went to school, and you can't be single now."
"Cut, who do you look down on," she said as she stretched out a hand to show Xiao Fang, and then showed me a diamond ring shining on it, "My progress is much faster than yours." You said that at that time, none of us left a contact information or anything, and we couldn't find you if we wanted to get married, so quickly leave the address to me. With that, the two of them left each other's contact information.
"What about your husband, is he still the one from high school?"
"No, I'll tell you," she stopped suddenly, then looked at me mysteriously, leaned over to Xiao Fang's ear and whispered something, Xiao Fang blushed and smiled, only I watched from the side.
"Hey, I said you, it's so unkind, you don't even tell me anything funny."
Liu Wen said half-jokingly: "This is a boudoir topic, you can't listen, sit well, otherwise she won't want you if I say a word, believe it or not."
I shook my head helplessly and continued to look at the two of them. After a while, the boss came with two large bowls of rice, and Xiao Fang wanted to give Liu Wen one too, but she said that she had eaten it. So we ate and chatted until her husband came and called her away, and then we reluctantly said goodbye to Xiao Fang.
After she left, I asked Xiao Fang, "What did she say, you listened so happily?"
"Don't ask, eat your food." She also laughed while talking, and I wanted to know more when I saw her like this, but she just didn't say it.
I could only be cheeky, took a piece of meat from her bowl, and asked her, "If you say it, I'll eat it if you don't say it."
"You eat, whatever you want, I'm not here for the meat, if you like it, you can eat more."
When you don't eat this kind of soft and hard, you really can't help it. I could only laugh and gently put the meat back into her bowl: "Come, it's more fragrant to eat."
