Punch: From third-rate anchor to top chef

Chapter 634
Li Xiao gave the store a shot.

Not far from a noodle shop in Nanzhao, a big signboard appeared in front of us.

“Bearded Snacks.”

Under the signboard, there was even a head portrait of a bearded man.

Li Xiao gave him a shot.

"Bearded snack bar? Does the owner have a big beard?"

"Thinking about it this way, I actually think it's so cute, what should I do?"

"The one on the profile picture should be the owner of the store, right?"

"He really has a big beard."

"Wait, where's his hair?"

"Uh... Maybe it's reversed?"

"You in front will laugh at me to death."

"This round head reminds me of Laoganma."

The Big Beard Snack Bar is less than 50 meters away from Zhu Jiyi Noodles. During the breakfast time every morning, there will be a long queue in front of the door.

The local people go out to work, or before they go to work, their favorite breakfast is "bait silk".

Weishan's raked meat and shredded bait is a major feature and one of the favorite foods of the local people.

The practice of "ragging meat" has been described before, so what is this "bait silk"?

"Yuisi" and "bait cubes" are special foods in Yunnan.

Yunnan's bait, the more famous ones are Weishan rake meat bait, Tengchong Dajiujia, and Guojiang bait.

Speaking of Guojiang bait silk, I have to mention the Guoqiao rice noodle in Yunnan.

In Yunnan, the "bait block" made of rice is cut into thin shreds, which is called "bait silk".

Of course, the bait shreds, taste and texture of each region are slightly different.

Li Xiao went into the Big Beard Snack Bar and ordered a bowl of shredded pork bait.

This bowl of rake meat and bait shreds is a memory of many Weishan people.

The method of making bait silk is very simple, especially in this kind of breakfast shop that can be seen everywhere, a bowl of bait silk is ready in just a few minutes.

After the Weishan bait silk is made, it is already cooked. Just put it in boiling water and roll it out, so that the cold and hard bait silk becomes soft, add broth and grilled meat, and it is ready to eat. .

Similarly, there are "kimchi" and "pickled vegetables" in the breakfast shops in Weishan.

Both of these are free and unlimited in the breakfast shop.

The amount of seasoning is up to you, you can put whatever you want, and you don’t have to worry about the shop owner putting something that the guests should not eat in the bowl.

Li Xiao sat down in front of the table with a bowl of bait.

The clock-in prompt sounded.

[Fame introduction: 1 point of fame will allow 10 strangers to know you through different channels]

After all, it's just an early morning shop, and there aren't even many products. Li Xiao doesn't think it's strange to get this star.

Although there are some other foods in the store, they are all soupy pasta, and Li Xiao is not interested.

Besides, I have to try other snacks in a while.

Although he ate a bowl of noodles just now, Li Xiao's body has been strengthened, and it is no longer comparable to ordinary people.

How could you be full after eating just one bowl of noodles?
The steaming bait was placed on the table, surrounded by people who were buried in eating noodles.

A middle-aged woman cried while eating, not knowing what happened.

It's okay to cry, but there is no tissue in the seat where she is sitting.

As if feeling embarrassed, the middle-aged woman buried her head very low.

Li Xiao hated seeing women cry the most, so he picked up the tissue on his table and walked to the woman opposite.

"Auntie, here are tissues."

The middle-aged woman froze for a moment, then, as if embarrassed, she quickly took the tissue and turned her head to wipe away her tears and snot.

The bowl of bait in front of her had already run out, and there was not much soup left in the bowl.

The woman's eyes were red, and her eyelashes were filled with tears.

Afraid of her embarrassment, Li Xiao returned to his seat first and began to taste his own food.

The shredded bait tastes soft and strong, the broth is delicious, and the meat is soft and glutinous. It is a very common breakfast.

For Li Xiao who has eaten countless delicacies, this is nothing more than ordinary.

Since the method of bait and raking meat has already been explained, Li Xiao casually commented on the taste of this restaurant this time.

It's also delicious, but not as delicious as Nanzhao Yiyi Noodles.

Li Xiao ate the shredded bait with his head down. After eating, he took another sip of the soup in satisfaction.

Have a bowl of hot noodles in the morning, and drink a sip of noodle soup, and your whole body will be warmed up!

The stomach is also warm.

The woman wiped away her tears, finished eating noodles, and sat in the shop for a while.

Seeing that Li Xiao had finished eating her own food, she sat down with the tissue she had just brought from Li Xiao's table.

"That...boy, thank you."

The eyes of the middle-aged woman were still red and swollen. Li Xiao took the tissue and asked with concern, "What happened? You look very sad."

Li Xiao originally thought that this woman had some grievances, or something happened at home, she looked a little pitiful, so she wanted to comfort her.

"Sorry, nothing serious."

As the woman spoke, her eye sockets began to turn red again.

"Young man, it seems that you are from another place. This store has been open for a long time, and it has been open since I was young."

"In the beginning, the store opened there."

The woman pointed to the opposite side of the road, "Go down ahead, it's his shop before."

"When I was young, my parents were not at home, and they were brought up by my grandpa."

"At that time, my grandfather took me to the market, and I often had lunch in this shop."

"Usually lunch is a bowl of bait."

"When I was young, my family was poor, and it took me a long time to eat a meal of meat, so I really liked going to the market with my grandfather, mainly because I liked to eat shredded bait."

"But my grandfather has passed away for a long time. When I go to the market now, I still come to this shop to eat a bowl of bait. But in the past, two people came together, but now it's just me..."

The former store manager also had a big beard, but the beard of the current bearded store manager has changed from black to white now.

This is the memory of many people from childhood to adulthood.

But now, the store is here, and the bearded boss is also there.

What was once a little girl has grown into a mother of a child.

The granddaughter who used to be ignorant has now learned to respect the old and love the young, and be humble and polite.

However, things have already changed.

The shop is there, but the people are already there.

What a sad idiom.

The ancients said: "The tree wants to be quiet but the wind does not stop; the child wants to support but does not wait for the relatives."

The little girl back then finally had the ability to honor her grandfather.

In the past, it was a luxury for the family to go to the market once and buy a piece of pork.

In the past, the elderly always liked to put more oil in their meals.

In the past, the old man always wanted to leave the most delicious food to his precious granddaughter, but later the granddaughter grew up and was able to buy a lot of meat.

Later, when the granddaughter grew up, the family had a car, and roads were built in the village, so she could go to the town to go to the market anytime and anywhere.

Later, a bowl of shredded bait, which used to be eaten only after gnashing of teeth, now only costs eight yuan a bowl.

But grandpa, where are you?

"·()·I miss my grandparents so much."

"I miss my grandpa too."

"I was mischievous when I was young, and only my grandpa protected me."

"When I was young, my grandma always left me delicious food. She never gave up eating the pastries and milk for festivals."

"My grandma wrapped the dim sum in a handkerchief. When I came home during the Chinese New Year, my grandma took out a piece of mooncake from the handkerchief."

"But the mooncakes are already hard and broken."

"My grandpa sometimes does the same. Everything is spoiled and he just can't bear to eat it."

"They don't know when we will go home, so they always want to leave the delicious food for us to eat..."

"When I was young, my parents were not at home. I grew up with my grandparents. My grandparents sewed clothes for me and cooked for me..."

"But I was too naughty when I was young. I always made my clothes dirty, and I was always picky about food and didn't eat properly."

"I haven't seen my grandparents for a long time, too."

Li Xiao also suddenly remembered something he had heard before.

When a person had a toothache when he was young, his grandfather would take him to eat Mushu pork rice from a certain restaurant.

But then he had a toothache, and grandpa was gone.

He had a toothache and couldn't eat, but he was really hungry, so he ordered a takeaway from a certain restaurant, and the dish he ordered was also Mushu pork rice bowl.

I didn't expect that the food in that family actually tasted like my childhood.

His teeth still hurt, but he ate all the food.

"It turns out that in the world of adults, you can't even say what you miss."

on the screen.

"(っ╥╯﹏╰╥c) I suddenly remembered that I asked Grandpa if he would miss his grandparents."

"Then grandpa told me, think about it, think about it every day."

"But at that time, I didn't know what it means to think every day."

"I really miss my grandparents now."

"Go home often and have a look. They are old, maybe there is not much time to accompany them."

"Be gentle with them at ordinary times. There is a generation gap between the elderly and the young, and they don't understand many things."

"When you don't understand, just teach patiently."

"They taught us how to dress and eat when we were young, and we can also help them dress and eat when they are old."

"They don't know how to use smartphones, but they have studied for a long time in order to have a conversation with you."

"With a smart phone, you can make calls, play videos, and see what you look like."

"So they start learning..."

"They may not understand why this small mobile phone can hear the voice of the son and grandson, and can see the appearance of the son and grandson."

"They haven't seen you for a long, long time."

"They miss you."

"Go home and have a look."

"(﹏) In the front, if you can speak, say a few more words."

"In front, it's better to publish a book if you can speak so well."

"In front, I went to the bookstore to buy your book, but they said no, so I smashed the bookstore."

"It's true that I haven't been home for a long, long time, and I haven't seen my grandparents for a long, long time..."

"I just called my grandpa."

"I just bought a ticket to go home, I miss my grandparents!"

"After the Mid-Autumn Festival this year, I will definitely not work overtime. I must go home and have a look."

Li Xiao looked at the barrage and couldn't help but sighed.

"Go home and have a look."

The middle-aged woman calmed down and finally left the bearded snack bar.

Everyone has their own things to be busy, and their own lives to live.

It's just that when you are busy running around for your life, don't forget to go home and have a look.

……

After checking in two shops with local characteristics, the little fans took Li Xiao to stroll around.

Since they are here to play, how can they let Li Xiaobai come?

The nearest attractions to the two stores are just a few minutes' walk away.

A moment later, the little fan brought Li Xiao to the entrance of the Confucian Temple.

A huge statue of Confucius is enshrined in the Confucian Temple, and in the side hall, there are also portraits and life stories of other Confucius disciples.

The red palace wall surrounds the entire temple, and the word "Confucian Temple" is simply written on the plaque on the gate.

As soon as you enter the door, there is a wall with the words "Wanren Palace Wall" written on it.

Bypassing this wall, there is also Zhuangyuan Bridge and a pool inside. On the side of Zhuangyuan Bridge and the pool, and even outside the main hall where the statue of Confucius is enshrined, there are signs of prayers.

Some of these signs are made by parents wishing that their children can be admitted to a good school, and some are posted by candidates who are approaching major exams, praying that they can be admitted to a certain school.

Of course, there are also some strange flowers who hang wishing signs in Confucian temples, seeking wealth and marriage.

Li Xiao's camera scanned these signs one by one, when he saw "So and so and so and so will be together forever."

"So-and-so and so-and-so made a fortune."

When the words "So and so and so will get married in the future", the barrage laughed like crazy.

"Confucius: 'Can you see clearly who is worshiping in this temple before you enter the gate?'"

"Confucius: 'Can't your wish come true? It's right if you can't. Your sign is in the wrong place.'"

"Confucius: 'Never thought that after so many years, I would still be fooled by this group of uneducated lovers.'"

"Hahaha in front, I'm afraid you are going to laugh at me so that I can inherit my forest energy."
