"Qingyun, let's eat in front, we don't have to take the car." Yu Qi hurriedly stopped her and waved his hand at the stopped taxi, "I'm sorry, we won't go." ”

The driver looked at them strangely, and Su Qingyun also smiled and waved his hand, "I'm sorry." ”

The driver rolled his eyes speechlessly and walked away.

"Let's go, it's the restaurant in front, I ate there last time I came to Hong Kong City, and it tasted good." Yu Qi beckoned everyone to move forward.

Everyone raised their feet and walked forward, Su Qingyun walked last, suddenly turned around, a few meters away, and met the slightly panicked expression of the front desk lady, Su Qingyun's eyes were cold, and he slowly raised a finger against his lips, 'Shut up'.

The front desk lady lowered her head weakly, her heart was beating wildly, she thought that these mainlanders couldn't understand what they said, so she dared to discuss it with the people next to her in front of them, so unscrupulously, but she didn't expect to be caught red-handed.

The front desk lady was completely frightened by Su Qingyun's eyes, obviously she was just a young girl, how could her momentum be so scary?

Yu Qi took a few people to a restaurant not far from the front of the hotel, and after sitting down, he began to reminisce about the past, "The last time I came to Hong Kong City, it was three years ago, at that time, I went abroad with Feng Suo to communicate, and it was also here that Feng Suo took me to this hotel." ”

Thinking of the past, Yu Qi showed a nostalgic smile, "Don't look at this shop is not big, it can be regarded as a time-honored brand in Hong Kong City, their Hong Kong-style roast belly meat is a must, the grilled beef brisket meat with sauce, the taste is simple." ”

"The honey barbecued pork in this house is also good, soft and juicy, fat but not greasy, melts in the mouth, and I still remember the taste."

Yu Qi said that he was hungry, and when he looked at the other people next to him, his saliva was about to flow out.

"Team leader, let's order food first." Su Qingyun was stubbornly told by him that he was hungry.

The boss also walked over, took a pen and notebook, pointed to the handwritten menu on the wall and asked, "What are you eating?" (What do you eat?) ）”

"Roasted belly."

"Hong Kong-style char siu with honey sauce."

Everyone spoke almost in unison.

The boss was stunned for a moment, and then his expression was a little surprised, "Are you mainlanders?" "The language is spoken in Mandarin, albeit with a slight accent.

Yu Qi was also stunned for a moment, the last time he came, the owner of this shop didn't seem to be able to speak Mandarin, right?

"Yes." Yu Qi nodded.

"It's really rare to meet so many mainlanders in Hong Kong City." The boss smiled, turned around and beckoned to the back kitchen, "Ali, you come out for a moment." ”

A woman in an apron quickly came out of the back kitchen, she was supposed to be busy, she still had water in her hands, and as soon as she came out, she complained, "I'm busy inside, call me paws?" ”

As soon as the accent she spoke came out, the eyes of the people on the team lit up, and someone couldn't wait to ask: "Sister, are you from Sichuan Province?" "The accent in which the woman speaks is a typical Sichuan accent.

The one who spoke was the closest to Su Qingyun in the team, named Chen Ru, who was also in his early twenties and had a more lively temperament.

The eldest sister named Ali was stunned for a moment, and then her eyes widened, "My mother, you too?" ”

"That's right."

"I've been in Hong Kong City for more than ten years, and it's really rare to meet fellow villagers." Sister Ali was so happy that her face turned into a flower, and she looked at Chen Ru's expression as if she had seen a relative she hadn't seen for a long time.

The boss also smiled, "This is my wife, she is from Sichuan Province, she came to Hong Kong more than ten years ago, and then stayed here, and I have always missed my relatives on the mainland." ”

Yu Qi was a little strange and asked: "Boss, I came to your store three years ago, it seems that the boss at that time was not from you, was it a replacement?" ”

"Three years ago?" The boss smiled a little, "Three years ago, my dad was still running this shop, and later, he was gone...... I was the one who took over the shop. ”

"I'm sorry." Yu Qi was a little apologetic.

"It's okay." The boss looked still happy, his eyes swept around his shop, and began to tell the history of this shop, "This shop was first run by my grandfather, he came during the war years, and then stayed here, got married, had children, learned the craft and opened the shop, this is more than 40 years old." ”

"My dad escaped back then, cut off contact with the mainland, and in the past few decades, he has often thought about his relatives over there, and he wants to go back before he dies, but ......"

The boss stopped talking and sighed, "Although I was born here, my father has always educated me not to forget that my roots are in the mainland, so I still speak the words of the mainland, and later after marrying my wife, I yearn for the mainland even more, and I now often educate my children not to forget their roots." ”

The eldest sister Ali's eyes were a little red, "I also came here by accident, but fortunately I met him, otherwise I don't know how to survive here, my only thought now is to go back and see, I don't know if my mother is still there?" ”

She was a little distracted by this, apparently caught up in a long memory.

The boss patted her on the shoulder and reassured: "If there is a chance in the future, we will definitely go back, to visit your relatives, and also to my father's hometown, so that he can return to his roots." ”

The boss and his wife's narration made everyone silent, the distance between the port city and the mainland is not far, but for various reasons, I don't know how many relatives are blocked and it is difficult to get together, and it is difficult for wanderers to return to their hometowns, so they can only look at each other from a short distance.

"I don't know why I said so much, don't say it!" The boss had a smile on his face again, "What do you want to eat?" Roasted pork belly and honey char siu, right? What else? Feel free to order, today I please! ”

The boss waved his hand, and the atmosphere was hearty.

"No, no, no, it's not going to work." Yu Qi hurriedly waved his hand and refused, "We are going out on business, and these are reimbursed for meals, thank you for your kindness." ”

"That's fine." As soon as the boss heard that a few people were on business, he didn't force it anymore, "Then I'll give you enough to eat well." ”

"Thank you boss!" Everyone thanked each other in unison.

Yu Qi ordered two dishes and asked everyone to see what else they wanted to eat.

After reading the menu, Chen Ru turned his head, looked at Sister Ali with blank eyes, and asked, "Sister, do you still cook Sichuan food?" ”

Since entering the mathematics talent group, after arriving in the capital, he has never eaten hometown dishes, most of the dishes in the capital taste is light, for the heavy oil, heavy salt and spicy Sichuan Province people, it is really a bit bland, finally met a fellow countryman, or open a restaurant, so I couldn't help but ask.

Ali was stunned for a moment, then smiled, "Of course you will, what do you want to eat?" The eldest sister will do it for you. ”

"You can do anything, eldest sister, I won't pick if you see it." Chen Ru's eyes are shining, it's good to have food, what else to choose.

"Yes, you wait for me for a while." It is rare to meet a hometown person, Ali is also happy in her heart, and immediately decided to show her hands.

The people of the team sat around the round table, waiting for the food to be served, and after flying for so long, everyone on the plane did not eat much, and they were all a little hungry.

The boss and his wife moved quickly, and the dishes they ordered were served in three or two clicks, roast belly meat, honey sauce barbecued pork, fish ball powder, roast pigeon...... There are also a few Sichuan dishes made by the proprietress Ali, mapo tofu, garlic white meat, stir-fried kidney flowers......

So many dishes? Everyone looked at a large table of dishes and swallowed their saliva, but they still couldn't help asking, "Team leader, is our meal standard enough?" ”

"Enough!" Yu Qi waved his hand nonchalantly, "Let's come out to compete, relying on ourselves, others can't help anything, but the guarantee of food, clothing, housing and transportation along the way is still in place, everyone doesn't have to worry about this, just eat and drink well." ”

"But this night, let's not drink, lest we miss tomorrow's business, and everyone will replace wine with tea."

"Thank you, team leader!"

Everyone picked up the chopsticks and started, although the speed of eating was fast, but there was still the upbringing and etiquette that should be there.

The proprietor and his wife stood aside, looking at them with a smile, and the guests liked to eat their own dishes, which was the greatest praise and encouragement for a chef.

Seeing a big table of big men, there was only Su Qingyun and a little girl, and the proprietress Ali also took care of Su Qingyun for two more points, and she poured Su Qingyun a cup of sour plum soup alone.

"It's hot, drink this, relieve the heat."

"Thank you, sister." Su Qingyun picked up the cup and took a sip, sweet and sour, cold and silky, and the heat on his body was gone.

A sister's call made Ali's heart flutter, "It's still called sister, my son is about the same age as you." ”

"But looking young, Auntie really can't scream." Su Qingyun said with a smile.

She didn't compliment Ali, although Ali and the boss run this restaurant, busy every day, still soaking in the smoke, but she looks young, and a few wrinkles in the corners of her eyes do not damage her beauty, but add a bit of charm, at a glance, you can see that she is the kind of person who lives a more comfortable and happy life.

"You girl, you're really well-behaved." Ali liked the little girl in front of her more and more, "You are so young, don't your parents worry about going out to compete so far away?" ”

She already knew that they were a team that was going to play abroad.

"Of course I was worried, but they all supported my decision." Su Qingyun smiled, "Besides, no matter how far I go, I will still go back to them in the end." ”

"Go back." Ali was a little distracted when she heard this word, she glanced back at her husband who was chatting with Yu Qi, and her heart was a little sour.

Her family is not good, two years after the natural disaster, the harvest in the field is still not good, everything that can be eaten is gone, someone wants to exchange food for her to marry, their family is poor, but the parents are not the ones who torture their daughter, and they do not agree to anything.

She looked at her younger brother, who was only a few years old and was so hungry, that she made a decision, she took the man's food, and left the house in the middle of the night, but what was waiting for her was not to marry, but to be sold from Sichuan Province to Guangdong Province, she desperately escaped, and by mistake got on the ship to Hong Kong City, and since then, she has stayed here.

She often looks at the opposite continent, wondering if her parents are still alive, whether her younger brother has grown up healthy, and when she will return to that home?

The home that she resolutely left at the beginning has become a place where she has been dreaming of going back all these years.
