Chapter 247: Enthusiasm in the Western Regions
Mu Rong and Liu Yifei had no intention of returning to the company at all, so they transferred directly at the airport and went to the Western Regions Province.
Fang Long has already helped him find a good director and prepare the crew, and in the next few months, Mu Rong and Liu Yifei will be filming the ancient scenes of "Myth" in the Western Regions Province.
The Western Regions Province is the largest province in the country, covering one-sixth of the country's land area.
Because it is the core of the ancient Silk Road and close to Central Asia, the Western Regions Province has been the center of cultural exchanges between the East and the West since ancient times.
The plot of "Mythology" took place here, so Mu Rong also chose this place for filming.
This is Jiang Xin's birthplace, so Mu Rong specially invited her to play a cameo role.
Knowing that she was going back to the Western Regions Province to film, her father suddenly offered to accompany her on a trip, and by the way, to meet those old comrades-in-arms.
Jiang Xin's father worked as a literary soldier in the Western Regions Province for a few years, and her mother was also a worker here at that time, so Jiang Xin was born here.
When Mu Rong and Liu Yifei hadn't returned to China, Jiang Xin and her father went to the Western Regions Province and met many old comrades-in-arms.
And when Mu Rong and Liu Yifei arrived in Bird City, it was Jiang Xin's father's comrades-in-arms who drove to pick them up.
The comrade-in-arms uncle was very enthusiastic, and first sent Mu Rong and Liu Yifei back to the hotel, and then took them to a barbecue restaurant.
Jiang Xin's father and daughter were already waiting for them in the store.
"Sissi!"
As soon as Mu Rong and Liu Yifei got out of the car, they saw Jiang Xin running in stride, she had been looking at the door, and when she saw the car stop, she couldn't wait to run out.
"Hah! It's so cold! ”
Liu Yifei wrapped her clothes and shuddered.
"There is a big temperature difference between day and night in the Western Regions Province."
Jiang Xin hugged her and smiled: "Haven't you heard that sentence?" Tell me to wear a leather jacket in the morning and a yarn in the afternoon, and eat watermelon around the stove, haha! I've got you covered with watermelons! ”
The iron stove of the barbecue restaurant was placed outside the door, and the barbecue Balang skillfully turned the meat skewers, sprinkling salt and chili noodles on the meat skewers, while shouting in unskilled Mandarin: "So and that! Roast Leak Roast Drain Roast Drain! The cow leaks no fragrance, the sheep leaks the incense, his does not smell my incense! The unmarried sheep baby, you are so fragrant! ”
The iron furnace burned with red charcoals, and the grease on the meat skewers dripped, and the charcoal fire burned them, and large smoky smoke evaporated.
Liu Yifei sniffed the smell in the air, and her eyes suddenly brightened a little: "It's really fragrant!" ”
"Oops! Welcome, welcome! ”
Jiang Xin's father also came out, followed by several comrades-in-arms.
"Seize the opportunity! Shake hands, this is our country's first world boxing champion! ”
Jiang Xin's father was joking, and those comrades-in-arms also really smiled and stepped forward to shake Mu Rong's hand, saying that it was stained.
It was cold outside, and after a few laughs, everyone entered the store first.
The store was crowded and there was no private room, so Jiang Xin's father found a big table in the middle, where there was a lot of space and could sit openly.
There are already several plates of fruit on the table, grapes with water droplets, red watermelons, and dark yellow cantaloupe, which are very beautiful.
"Let's eat some melons first!"
Jiang Xin greeted warmly, took a piece of watermelon and handed it to Liu Yifei.
took the melon and took a bite, Liu Yifei's eyes suddenly widened.
"What? Isn't it tasty? ”
Jiang Xin was a little surprised.
"It's so sweet!"
Liu Yifei looked at the watermelon in surprise: "It's like drinking a sip of sugar water." ”
"Watermelon is the least sugary, you try cantaloupe."
Jiang Xin brought her another piece of dark yellow cantaloupe.
Liu Yifei took a bite, suddenly sighed, and covered the juice flowing from the corner of her mouth with her hand.
After chewing a few bites, she said with a lake: "It's a bit like the taste of mango, and it's very sweet!" It's so sweet! My throat is itching. ”
"Then you shouldn't be able to eat this old mangua, this one is sweeter."
Jiang Xin pushed a melon cut into slices, the color was green, a bit like it was broken, in front of Mu Rong, and motioned: "You can taste this!" This is only available in the Western Regions Province, and it can't be shipped out at all. ”
Looking at the color of the melon flesh that had collapsed a little, Mu Rong hesitated.
This melon meat really looks a bit like it's broken.
But Jiang Xin shouldn't be able to fix him, so he still picked up a piece and took a bite.
The fragrance in his mouth immediately dispelled his doubts.
The ripe melon flesh was a bit like jelly, and a bit like cream ice cream, there was no need to chew it at all, it melted with a sip of the tongue, turning into a rich sweet juice that poured into Mu Rong's throat.
"Ahem!"
Mu Rong couldn't help but cough.
Jiang Xin is right, this melon is indeed so sweet that it is already a little unscrupulous.
"This is a ripe old Chinese melon, with a sugar content of more than 25."
Jiang Xin explained: "After it is fully ripe, its melon flesh is very soft, and it can be eaten by an old man without teeth, so it is called an old man melon." ”
"It's delicious, but it's a little greasy, and I don't eat much."
Mu Rong took two bites, but he couldn't eat anymore.
Liu Yifei took it curiously, took a bite next to the bite he had bitten, and was immediately bitterly sweet.
"No, no, it's too sweet, I can't eat it."
She shook her head and handed the melon back to Mu Rong.
Jiang Xin's father smiled: "It's okay, the melon is appetizing, pad your stomach, and meat is the protagonist today." ”
As he was talking, a barangzi came over with an iron plate full of meat skewers, and put it on the table with a sound of winter.
Looking at Roshan in front of her, Liu Yifei was dumbfounded.
"Eat, eat, eat!"
Jiang Xin's father's comrades-in-arms greeted: "There are still behind!" ”
"What kind of meat is this?"
Liu Yifei was a little frightened by this weight.
"Lamb, and beef."
Jiang Xin said with a smile: "There are many ethnic minorities here, and they basically eat beef and mutton. ”
"I can't eat mutton."
Liu Yifei waved her hand.
She rarely eats mutton and is very afraid of the smell of mutton.
Jiang Xin knew, but she still persuaded: "You can taste it!" The sheep here are not fat. ”
Jiang Xin's father also said: "This is the sheep that our comrades-in-arms bought from the herdsmen in the mountains, and they were brought over in the afternoon. ”
When Liu Yifei heard this, it was difficult to excuse herself, so she picked up a string.
There are two or two meat skewers on the skewers made of red willow, and the portions are full.
She didn't grasp it with one hand, and then she used the other hand to hold it firmly.
lowered his head and sniffed the meat skewers, a strange aroma wafted away, and Liu Yifei suddenly became a little tongue-in-cheek.
She followed Jiang Xin's example, wiped the top of the meat skewer with a napkin, and then bit the meat piece and ripped it off the red willow skewer.
As soon as the mutton was chewed, Liu Yifei suddenly raised her eyebrows and said in surprise: "It's really not bad!" A little creamy scent! ”
"Right? I'll just say it! ”
Jiang Xin said with a smile: "This kind of sheep that grow up eating wild grass is not fat!" ”
"You taste it!"
Liu Yifei handed the meat skewer to Mu Rong's mouth, Mu Rong lowered his head and took a bite, and sure enough, the fat was fragrant.
Mu Rong nodded and smiled: "This kind of meat can only be eaten when you come to the Western Regions Province." ”
Jiang Xin's father's comrades-in-arms were very enthusiastic: "Haha! If you like, I'll bring you a few when you go back! ”
