Chapter 250: Lao Guo talks about the taste of the old days
The four of them got into the car and set off to Hongqiao District to send Zhao Yunyi back to where she lived.
Guo Degang sat in the car, looking out the window on the road, looking at the changes in the city with emotion.
After all, I grew up in Jincheng, and my family lived in Hongqiao Beizhuli, so many years have passed, and the streets on the road are both familiar and unfamiliar, and I can't help but recall my childhood.
Crossing a small road, I saw an old man selling cakes on the side of the street.
Guo Degang pointed out the car window and recalled with a smile: "I don't know if you like to eat or not, I love sticky food, I like to cut cakes, rice cakes, pot cakes, zongzi and so on. ”
"Including my son also loves to eat, this thing is also genetic, I eat these things, the cut cake that sells very well is almost there, I beat the child is the old man pedaling a broken bicycle, the cut cake he sells is my favorite, because it has to be dirty, you know?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone in the car laughed.
Guo Degang said and compared: "There may not be this kind of now, when I was a child, the cake seller pedaled a bicycle, there was a board behind the bicycle, and there was a piece of the cut cake on the board, regardless of the jujube filling, covered with a white drawer cloth, and there was a bucket behind his car, a broken iron bucket, there was water in it, and a knife was inserted in the water, this is the best, because it is not clean!" ”
"Anyway, it's not clean at most, it's mud and soil, it can't be bad, now it's additives or something, it may be mixed with glue, and I don't dare to eat it."
"Master, you should eat less blood sugar!" Qu Xiaoyun persuaded with a smile.
"Wow, I'm eating less now!"
Guo Degang waved his hand and continued: "When we were children, we stopped him when we saw a bicycle selling cake cuts, and then bought a five-cent price, and the children didn't have money at that time, and the cake sellers took a knife, and now I think about it, dip it in the broken tin bucket and cut a piece of water, and put some sugar for you, it's not a serious white sugar, saccharin is not saccharin, anyway, it can be sweet, it's delicious!" ”
"I have the impression that once when I was a child, a few and a half children at the door, I was young, there was that sixteen or seventeen-year-old, we bought cut cakes with there to eat, one person held a piece, his cut cake dates are not good, this cut cake dates are very important, his dates are big and sour, as a result, we have a kid who is very stunned, I am particularly impressed, he turned his face, a meal is not delicious, he put the cut cake in his hand, click, stick to the telephone pole next to it, and the seller of cut cakes was shocked!"
"Hey, this is a ruthless man!" Qin Xiaoxian said in surprise.
Guo Degang turned his head and asked Zhao Yunyi, who was sitting in the co-pilot: "Xiao Zhao, the university you studied in Jincheng, have you eaten the three uniques in Jincheng?" ”
"I've eaten them all." Zhao Yunyi turned around and replied with a smile.
"What are the three uniques of Jincheng?" Qin Xiaoxian, who was driving, asked curiously.
Zhao Yunyi explained: "The dog ignores the buns, the ears and eyes are fried cakes, and the eighteenth street twists!" ”
"Is it delicious?"
Zhao Yunyi frowned lightly, and said honestly: "To be honest, I personally think it's very ordinary, the buns are too expensive, and six buns sell for more than eighty!" The twist flavor is OK, the ear eye fried cake is very similar to the fried cake, but the price is one of four or five fried cakes. ”
Guo Degang nodded: "The real people of Jincheng don't eat that, they are all outsiders who come to eat, come here to eat noodles, pancakes and fruits, this kind of characteristics are delicious and not expensive!" ”
Qu Xiaoyun's eyes lit up and said: "The pancakes are delicious, my hometown is made of white flour, and here they are colorful, and you can also add spicy strips and fried skewers to it!" ”
"It's still pancake fruit!"
Guo Degang pursed his lips after listening to it, and explained: "Jincheng's authentic pancakes and fruits don't add this mess, noodles, mung bean noodles, millet noodles, white noodles, stick noodles, after different proportions are put aside, mix well, don't take water and, boil mutton bones in water, and take that soup to make noodles after it is clean!" ”
"And generally the pancake fruit stall is next to the fried fritter stall, and the fritters that come out of the pot are crispy and crispy, and the fritters that have just come out of the pot on the sauce roll are spread out, and the green onion is sprinkled with fragrant!"
"Hey, that's too exquisite!" Qu Xiaoyun gave a thumbs up after listening.
Revisiting the old place, memories come flooding back to me.
Guo Degang chatted, the conversation box opened, and asked with a smile: "Do you all drink sweet soy milk or salty soy milk?" ”
"Sweet!" They said in unison.
"And salted soy milk? I've never heard of it! Qu Xiaoyun felt very fresh.
Guo Degang said with a smile: "There are more people who drink salty soy milk here in Jincheng, I went to elementary school when I was young, and I got up in the morning to get out of the house to get half a steamed bun, take an egg and take a penny, and go early!" ”
"Beat the eggs in the soy milk bowl, then pour it in with the boiling soy milk, put a spoonful of salt, and after it is even, break the cold steamed bun and soak it inside, and then have a fried dough stick, eat it, you are not hungry at noon, you must try it if you have the opportunity!"
Qu Xiaoyun smiled and nodded: "This sounds like anti-hunger!" It is worthy of the people of Jincheng who borrow money to eat seafood, and they are really particular about eating! ”
"What do you mean? Why do you want to borrow money to eat seafood? Qin Xiao asked curiously.
"Eat and wear all the Tianjin Wei!"
Guo Degang explained with a smile: "Borrowing money to eat seafood, not counting the impassing, what month and season to eat what fish, this month from the 15th to the 28th to eat yellow croaker, at the beginning of next month we will eat crabs, what to eat from the first to the second of what fish, Jincheng people know best!" ”
"Nine rivers under the tip of Tianjin, three pontoon bridges and two passes, Jincheng in the past is a very important place, because it is the capital one step forward, especially it is a dry wharf, very prosperous, it is through the train, and through the car, and through the ship, the geographical location is very special."
"In this situation, the people of Jincheng can be said to have a history of hundreds of years on eating, so when it comes to this day, this fish has come down, for example, in summer, we have to eat sole, that is, flounder, and there is no money to buy it on this day, what should we do? Just borrow money to buy it, go to Dangdang, because you don't eat it for a few days and it will pass, so the people of Jincheng are here in their mouths! ”
"Good guy, that's what it means, that's really exquisite!" Qin Xiao praised with a casual smile.
"Oh, I'm hungry when I talk about it, or let's eat, it's time for dinner!" Guo Degang touched his stomach and proposed.
Qu Xiaoyun agreed: "Cheng, I already made you say that you were hungry!" ”
As soon as she heard that she was going to eat, Zhao Yunyi was very sensible, turned her head and said with a smile: "Teacher Guo, it's almost time to where I live, find a place to stop, you don't need to send me home." ”
Guo Degang waved his hand: "Hey, you're welcome, what's there to eat, otherwise you have to cook it when you go home, how convenient it is to go back after eating!" ”
"Okay then, thank you Mr. Guo!" Zhao Yunyi was very embarrassed, but it was not easy to refuse, and thanked her with a smile.
