Chapter 50: Salt and Pepper Snake Segment

Watching my grandmother swallow the brown snake gall bladder raw, I thought it was amazing.

After my grandmother left, my dad said to me: "The kind of perfume sprayed in Dong Ling's room has snake gall in it, and this smell is not very good for ordinary people." ”

As he spoke, he washed the bowl containing the snake gall and put it in the cupboard: "The snake in the circus team smelled the snake gall, and it must have thought that there was a similar kind here, so it crawled over." ”

I don't understand: "Why is there snake gall in perfume?" ”

"Snake gall bladder, like the bezoar, has the effect of repelling mosquitoes, and snake gall bladder also has the effect of nourishing the skin, which can play a certain role in resisting the aging of the face, so some cosmetics companies will add a little snake gall to the product."

I paused, I see.

What my dad told me at the time was just a few simple words.

Later, in "Autumn Moon Eclipse List", I saw a detailed introduction to snake gallbladder:

Snake gallbladder has been a valuable medicinal material since ancient times, widely used in clinical and folk applications.

It was first recorded in the Han Dynasty's "Famous Doctors' Records", snake gallbladder cool, bitter and slightly sweet, has the effect of expelling phlegm, searching for wind and dampness, and brightening the eyes and benefiting the liver.

My grandmother's eyelids are hot, which belongs to the liver and gallbladder fire, and the snake gallbladder can clear the liver fire, which is just the symptom of my grandmother.

As for the snake meat, it tastes really good, but it's too nourishing.

I ate snake meat that day because of its delicate texture and the excellent taste of my dad's cooking, so I ate a lot.

When I woke up early the next morning, I was shocked when I washed my face.

I saw me in the mirror, my whole face was swollen like a loaf, and I was already squinted into a slit, looking like an ugly monster.

My grandmother said I was eating too much and couldn't make up for it.

Later, I drank white porridge for a week, and my face recovered.

Now that I think about it, there are some things, although delicious, but they really can't be excessive.

Liang Yuan heard me say that he was going to eat snake meat, he thought for a while: "I have a friend who has opened a farmhouse, snake meat is their main specialty, Tang Xiaofan, you really want to take us to eat, I will call to book a table." ”

As soon as I heard it, the electrogram said yes.

So I cleaned up the shop, went upstairs to call Meimei, and we took a taxi to Liang Yuan's friend's farmhouse.

This farmhouse is in the suburbs, and when we went, it happened to be a meal.

Business is good, and there are a lot of cars that look good in front of the door.

This farmhouse is located in the suburbs of the northern part of the city, with its back against a small hillside behind it, and on top of it are large grapefruit trees, which are in full bloom at this time, take a deep breath, and suddenly feel refreshed.

Liang Yuan's friend's name is Li Jiale, and he is busy receiving guests.

Seeing that Liang Yuan brought us over, he came up to say hello and asked a little girl to take us to the private room.

We plus Mei Mei, only four people, went to the private room to eat, I wonder if this is a bit too grand.

Liang Yuan winked at me: "Li Jiale is my old iron, his father and I did business with my father before, and then he made money, so he opened such a farmhouse, and the business is very good." ”

I sighed, thinking to myself that the owner of this farmhouse was the horse boy of Liang Yuan's family before.

Look at the people, this store is bright, and the diners are full of customers, and now it is mixed up. Looking at Liang Yuan again, his father doesn't know where to run to hide from debts now.

This person, his life has really been up and down, and until the day when the coffin is closed, there is no certainty.

While thinking, we followed the little girl into the private room.

The little girl served us some tartary buckwheat tea, put down the menu and let us order, and then stood aside and waited.

Liang Yuan took the pen and began to sketch the dishes, while I looked around.

The decoration of this farmhouse is simple and elegant, full of Chinese style.

I have to say that the environment in which you eat is really important.

Spending in such a place is indeed a pleasure, even if it is a little expensive, and the diners are willing.

Thinking about my small noodle restaurant again, the environment is indeed too ordinary.

A bowl of chicken noodles costs only three yuan, not to mention the rent, water and electricity, six yuan a bowl, and the price has not increased for three years.

In this way, many people are too expensive.

My agreement with Chen San is to earn 100,000 yuan a day within two years, I really have to plan it well, the business of this grapefruit orchard farmhouse is so good, I need to learn from it.

At that end, Liang Yuan had already ordered a few dishes, and he handed me the menu and asked me if I had anything to add.

The blind man laughed on the side:

"Liang Yuan, you are a regular customer, you can arrange it, let's sit and wait to eat." As he spoke, he pointed to the little waiter girl next to him: "My little sister has been waiting for a long time, let her serve the food." ”

As he spoke, he swallowed.

Even in the private room, the fragrance still came in from the outside, not only did the blind man want to eat it, but even the gluttonous worms in my stomach were about to be hooked out.

Liang Yuan glared at the blind man: "I didn't let you see it, no matter how you want to let the payer pass by!" ”

The blind man's mouth crooked: "What are you making a fuss about, since you are not paying, just like me, you have to behave, Tang Xiaofan is the boss, and the boss can ...... whatever he says."

The two of them started arguing, and I had a bit of a headache.

So I took the menu and didn't look at it, so I handed it directly to a fat little girl: "Excuse me, press this one." ”

When the little girl left, I asked her where she had a bathroom.

Leaving the private room, I followed the waiter to the bathroom and saw that the hall was overcrowded, and every table was full of delicious food.

Subconsciously looking towards the table, I found that there was the same dish on every table.

It was a white disc with unskinned snake segments cut into sections, jet-black in color, sprinkled with some seasoning powder.

Diners pick it up and nibble on it, taking a bite of meat and wine, and it looks like it tastes good.

I asked the waitress next to me what the dish was.

She glanced at it and said, "This is the salt and pepper snake section, our must-order dish here, it tastes good." As she spoke, she glanced at the menu in her hand: "Sister, you also ordered this dish, you can try it later, it's really good." ”

With that, she turned a corner and went into the kitchen next to her.

I didn't go any further, I stood at the door of the kitchen for a while, staring at the words "the kitchen is heavy, idlers are not allowed to enter", stood for a while, and then walked to the toilet.

After going to the toilet, I was washing my hands by the sink.

Next to her, wearing a floral silk dress, she was touching up her makeup in front of the mirror.

I also looked at myself in the mirror and realized that I was not yet twenty-five years old, and I was not particular at all, so I tried to fix my hair, but it still didn't feel right.

When my life is saved, I really have to take care of it, otherwise I really won't be able to get married.

I wiped my hands and was about to leave when I heard the woman next to me scream. Turning around, she jumped up behind me and pointed to the pool for me to see.

I saw a small snake, coiled on an antique faucet, lazily raising its head, staring at us......
