Chapter 373: Taiyaki

This time, the venue was different from the previous venues such as the debut night.

For a concert like that, the venue needs to be large enough and accommodate enough people, so the location is relatively remote.

The Masked Singer's small performance venue is in the city, and a few streets further on, is a high school.

It was already eleven o'clock, but the street was just beginning to live.

The campus was brightly lit, and the bell rang several times for the end of the evening self-study class, and finally some students came out of it one after another with their schoolbags on their backs.

It should have been a very familiar scene, but the students were wearing unfamiliar red school uniforms, and the campus buildings were not orange and white.

Su Chengyi paused, took off the baseball cap, and framed it on Chen Jinzhi's head.

She already has a small face, and the brim of her hat is covered like this, and she can almost only see her chin.

Su Chengyi was quite satisfied with this, and led her to continue walking.

"I can't see the road."

"I'm pulling you."

Outside the campus, as always, is a snack street, which seems to be the traditional setting of all campuses in the country.

Vendors set up stalls in rows, mostly using tricycles to build simple shops.

The variety is so vast that it's dizzying.

The sweet aroma of oden, the sizzling of squid whiskers on the iron plate, the round octopus balls are turned over, and the fat of the lamb skewers on the charcoal fire mixes with the aroma of cumin.

The students were obviously familiar with the road, so they stopped in front of their favorite shop in twos and threes to buy a few skewers of their favorite to satisfy their hunger.

Time has passed, and the subway has been suspended.

Most students choose to walk home, and these small snacks full of fireworks can make the journey home less lonely.

At this point, only the students who are in the third year of high school are left, and when I think about it, there are about 80 days left, and they are going to take the college entrance examination.

While thinking about it, Su Chengyi lowered his head and leaned into Chen Jinzhi's ear and asked:

"Would you like something to eat?"

I thought she would definitely refuse, after all, she had never heard the word "hungry" from her mouth, as if she had evolved the most basic survival need of human beings to eat.

Unexpectedly, Chen Jinzhi thought about it and nodded.

"Okay."

This is a bit of a surprise.

Su Chengyi stopped at the corner of the street and observed these shops again.

When you're in an unfamiliar food street and you're wondering which one to eat, the easiest and most infallible way is to see where there are the most people in line.

The end result: the most popular among the students of this school is a shop that sells small wontons.

Su Chengyi led Chen Jinzhi and walked over, and saw that the small shed that had been temporarily erected next to him was already occupied by the students, and there was not a single remaining seat.

It was an old couple who sold wontons, and the eldest lady was busy cooking wontons, so the uncle had his hands free to greet the two.

"Hey, young man, come here to eat!"

Su Chengyi was stunned for a moment, and saw him open the door of the tricycle.

Unexpectedly, although the sparrow is small, it has all kinds of organs, and there is something else inside it - in fact, there is also a table.

Su Chengyi wanted to laugh a little, and glanced sideways at Chen Jinzhi.

The corners of her mouth lifted, and she spoke:

"Thank you."

So the two of them really got into the tricycle.

"What are you two eating?"

The uncle asked, opening the door.

Su Chengyi had already glanced at the signboard in advance, so he ordered directly:

"Two bowls of fresh meat wontons, one bowl without chili peppers, and one bowl with more chili peppers."

"Okay, come right away, don't worry, I'll cook the students first."

The uncle wiped his hands, and the smile on his face was very kind.

Su Chengyi nodded and replied, "Okay."

The inside of the tricycle was very clean, and everything was neatly organized.

Even if you sit in the car, you can smell the aroma of the small wontons in the pot, and occasionally you can hear the angry voice of the eldest lady:

"Is it enough for a child? I'll give you two more scoops! ”

Business doesn't seem to be for nothing.

Su Chengyi habitually wiped the table with paper, and it was also very clean, without the greasy and greasy feeling that is common in roadside food stalls.

Another advantage of sitting in the car is that it is very hidden and does not need to be hidden.

Deluxe private room treatment.

Su Chengyi reached out and took off Chen Jinzhi's hat and helped her fan the wind.

"Is it hot or not?"

"It's fine."

Chen Jinzhi twisted his hair behind his ears and looked at the students who were distracting from school outside the car window.

Su Chengyi followed her gaze and said with a smile:

"Isn't it kind?"

"Well, but there doesn't seem to be one at the door?"

Chen Jinzhi spoke very slowly, as if he was thinking about something.

Su Chengyi recalled for a moment and replied:

"There have always been. It seems that when I was a sophomore in high school, I was still at the school gate.

Until I heard that a student had gastroenteritis, although the specific cause was not clear, but in short, it was rectified.

After that, the filthy soil was reincarnated in the next street, and in fact nothing changed, and the hawkers were still those hawkers. ”

"That's it."

Chen Jinzhi propped his chin and smiled.

"Bang dang!"

The door of the tricycle was opened, and the uncle brought up two bowls of wontons.

"Come on~ The vinegar bottle is on the table, I want to add my own!"

"Okay, thanks."

Su Chengyi bent down and got up and brought the bowl over.

The bowl and spoon are disposable, and it is also for convenience and cleanliness.

He specially asked for more chili peppers to be added to this bowl, and the red oil smelled very fragrant and the color was bright.

Chen Jinzhi's bowl was clear soup, and Su Chengyi guessed that she would definitely have activities tomorrow, so she didn't add chili peppers.

Unexpectedly, as soon as the bowl was put down, Chen Jinzhi scooped a spoonful of his red soup over.

"It looks a little spicy."

She studied the color of the peppers and commented.

Su Chengyi didn't care, how spicy can such a stall sold to students eat?

And this is the magic capital, Tang'an has a strong taste and is famous for its spicy food.

He is a native of Tang'an, how can he be spicy here!

Su Chengyi unsuspectingly scooped a spoonful of wontons and stuffed them into his mouth.

"It's not spicy."

Before he could finish his sentence, he felt that something was not right.

This chili pepper is the kind of sour and hot chopped pepper made by home, but the stamina is very strong, and the spiciness quickly makes the mouth tingle, and the tip of the nose sweats.

Chen Jinzhi laughed and pushed the bowl of clear soup in front of him.

"Okay, what's strong."

"It's not spicy, just the first bite is spicy, it's okay, I can eat it."

Su Chengyi picked up the vinegar bottle and poured a small half bowl into it.

Chen Jinzhi was helpless and funny, and couldn't help but reach out and pinch the root of his ear.

After adding vinegar, the spicy taste was relieved a lot, and Su Chengyi changed the topic while eating.

"Do schools in South Korea also have food streets like this?"

"Where I go to school, there are, but not so much."

Chen Jinyi recalled as he scooped up a wonton and lowered his head to blow it.

"After all. Well, the South Korean diet, you should understand. ”

"Ah, too."

Although Su Chengyi has never been there, he has heard of it.

Otherwise, it wouldn't be said to be a kimchi country.

"On the way home from school, I often pass by fried rice cakes, rice sausages, fried dumplings, and so on."

Chen Jinzhi seemed to think about it seriously.

Su Chengyi wanted to laugh a little when he heard it, it stands to reason that this kind of street food should be able to babble like announcing the name of the dish.

Just the alley outside the tricycle is too many to count.

"What's the best thing to eat?"

He asked, a little curious.

After all, none of the ones that are being said now sound appetizing.

Unexpectedly, Chen Jinzhi's answer was even more unexpected.

"I don't know, I haven't eaten it."

“?”

Su Chengyi was stunned, and the spoon in his hand almost slipped into the bowl.

"Don't you want to eat it?"

"Well, it's not counted, to be honest, it's actually quite curious sometimes."

Chen Jinzhi laughed, as if he was a little embarrassed by such a straightforward statement.

"I was very young."

She lowered her eyes, not knowing what she was thinking.

The incandescent light inside the tricycle is weak, and there are plenty of shadows outside the windows.

Su Chengyi felt for a while that the bowl of chili peppers and vinegar in front of him was a little excessive, and the wontons became tasteless.

If you're curious about the taste, but you've never eaten it, that's only one reason.

No money to buy.

In fact, Su Chengyi also had a very poor family when he was a child.

The situation is different from the poor three generations, or worse, because neither of the parents can actually get by, and they don't understand the truth that money has to be spent on the blade.

Su Zelang was born in the side line of that big family, and although he was not valued since he was a child, he did not suffer much.

The "painful experiences" that he often talked about after drinking were all eaten after he insisted on going out and engaging in rock 'n' roll.

Not to mention Yang Liu, a scholarly family, but he doesn't know people clearly and has embarked on a crooked path.

Since then, the daughter of the Yang family has lived a hard life with the yellow hair band boy with clear soup and little water, and for the first time lived a life where she needed to fill a shampoo bottle.

But despite this, on Su Chengyi, the two have never saved any money.

The study stationery is bought in sets, and the tuition and miscellaneous fees are never late.

Su Chengyi ate lunch in the cafeteria and went home in the evening. They cook a bowl of noodles for lunch, but dinner is always three dishes and one soup, and they never settle.

When Su Zelang came to pick him up from school, he always waited happily with a lot of snacks sold at the school gate.

Although Su Chengyi didn't like to eat these, the result was that most of the things he bought were solved by himself, and he had to repeatedly tell your mother not to let your mother know, otherwise he would have to scold him for eating junk food with his children.

"Although I don't really like this snack, my classmates always gather around to buy it when I get out of school."

Chen Jinzhi stirred the clear soup in the bowl and continued to remember.

"If you don't buy it, it will seem a little unsociable, after all, when others share food, they can only stand stupidly next to it.

But I didn't have much pocket money at the time, and I had to save up for days to buy an eraser, so I had to pretend I hated it. ”

At this, she raised her eyes and smiled.

"I pretended to be so calm that my classmates didn't even suspect anything.

If you want to ask what is the best to eat. According to what Mr. Su said just now, it is probably the one with the most people in line, right?

As I remember, it was a crucian carp cake. ”

"Crucian carp cake?"

Su Chengyi's first thought was the kind of food that was fried after the small yellow croaker was wrapped in starch, but Chen Jinzhi quickly denied this.

"Well, it's actually more like taiyaki. But it's not that thick, it's thin, and it's red bean paste inside.

I was really curious about this, so when I went to junior high school, I went to work odd jobs at a convenience store, and the first thing I did when I got my salary was to buy it.

The boss was already familiar with me, and when he saw me standing in front of the shop, he smiled and joked that the little girl had finally come to buy it.

However, "

When she said this, Su Chengyi roughly guessed that she definitely didn't eat it in the end.

"At that time, I had already decided to become a trainee, and I thought that the next living expenses and study expenses had not yet been settled, so I felt that I was not so curious.

I bowed and said excuse me, and ran away.

I vaguely heard the boss shouting in the back, please eat, please eat. ”

Chen Jinzhi sighed, and looked at him with a smile on his chin.

"Speaking of which, I really passed the selection of trainees later, and then I returned to China, but I rarely think about crucian carp cakes anymore."

She rarely talks about things in South Korea, and it's rare that she will talk about it tonight.

However, as the so-called seeing the subtleties knows, such a small thing in Chen Jinzhi's eyes can even be said in a joking tone as a good joke.

In fact, if you think about it carefully, it's already a bit cruel.

What kind of mood should she have in those moments when she never talked about it?

Su Chengyi poked the bottom of the bowl with a spoon, feeling a little uncomfortable inexplicably.

Compared with his previous situation, Chen Jinzhi's situation is much more difficult.

He's withdrawn, but it's not really isolated, but rather like he's isolating everyone.

But Chen Jinzhi is different, she has such a delicate mind, no matter where she goes, she will quickly make herself look gregarious.

Then, these unresolved and extremely unsociable moments will be remembered for a long, long time.

Fortunately, at this time, Su Chengyi suddenly remembered that on the signboard of the stall he had just passed by, it seemed that there was selling sea bream!

Thanks to my country's tolerant and tolerant night snack culture.

He immediately got up and pushed open the door of the tricycle.

"You wait for me here."

"Huh?"

Chen Jinzhi raised his head a little unexpectedly.

"I'll be right back."

Without waiting for her to answer, Su Chengyi walked briskly without looking back.

It was later in the day, and he was afraid that the vendor had already closed the stall.

But fortunately, no, the students of this school seem to be released in batches, and there are still a lot of red school uniforms on the street.

Su Chengyi followed his memory all the way and found the shop very smoothly.

Fortunately, I read it right, it is indeed the word taiyaki.

"Boss, do you still have taiyaki?"

He was even a little nervous when he asked the question.

Childhood scars need to take a lifetime to heal, and now Chen Jinzhi doesn't care about such a crucian carp cake, but she must have cared a lot when she was a child.

But when you are under the fence, you have to look at the eyes of others in everything you do, and naturally even such a small wish is a luxury.

In this way, even if you have the ability to buy it later, you will no longer want it.

"Yes."

The boss replied simply.

Su Chengyi's hanging heart relaxed.

"Okay, please give me two."

He doesn't like such sweets, but he must eat them with him at this time.

The boss skillfully lifted the mold, poured egg liquid into it, and asked:

"What do you want? Red beans, chocolate, yogurt. ”

Times have changed, and now it is so diverse!

But Su Chengyi still chose the red bean model, after all, this is the kind she wanted to eat at that time.

When the bottom layer of the fish skin turns brown, the boss adds a solid red bean filling to it, and finally covers the top layer of fish skin.

It looks pretty good.

Su Cheng imagined that the shape was quite cute.

Of course, it will be very attractive to little girls!

Chen Jinzhi is so uninterested in food now, maybe he was squeezed too hard when he was a child, and he couldn't eat anything he wanted, so it's strange that he can be interested when he grows up.

When Su Chengyi was thinking about how to save it, he suddenly heard a loud whistle from the street entrance.

Then, the boss, who was still leisurely just now, suddenly changed his complexion.

Before Su Chengyi could react, a symphony of pots and pans had already sounded around him.

? What the situation.

He looked at him with a confused expression.

Good guys, just a moment to turn around, the vendors who were still a long strip have disintegrated in an instant, and the trees have fallen and scattered.

Like the Autobots who had been knocked apart, they were already running away in all directions.

???

"Let's go! Come on! ”

And the taiyaki master in front of him cleaned up with ridiculously fast speed, he had already stepped into the driver's seat of the tricycle and started with a catapult.

Ha?

Su Chengyi soon found that he was the only one who was confused, and these students laughed as if they had long been used to it.

He soon learned the reason from them.

Good guy, the chengguan has come to drive people out.

What time is it, aren't you all off work?!

The students who had not yet received the order ran with the vendors' tricycles, smiling and shouting:

"My baked cold noodles!"

"My skewers!!"

"Yakiniku and egg fried rice!"

This scene is really funny, Su Chengyi originally wanted to laugh, but looking at the empty street, he felt that something was wrong.

12 points out of 10 is wrong.

People go to the alleys and alleys, and the place is in a mess.

Something seems to be missing.

Why did he come to buy taiyaki?

???

Going north, where's my girlfriend?!
