I really don't want to be her world

Chapter 187 185. Potato Tower
"Haha, hey, have you ever eaten this?"

Tang Yimeng picked up a small transparent plastic box and shook it at Yuan Shu.

"I've eaten it! As for figs, I remember there was something called Monkey King Pill at that time, but it wasn't delicious anyway..."

Yuanshu immediately recognized the thing in the former's hand. When he was in elementary school and junior high school, he always saw his classmates buying and eating it. He was curious and tasted it. He thought it would be sweet, like candy. It felt like it, but I didn't expect it to taste like salty plum but more palatable than plum. Not only did it have a thick salty taste, but it also had a disgusting smell of Chinese medicine.

"No, this is fig, this is Monkey King Pill, they are different."

With that said, Tang Yimeng picked up a plastic box with a cartoon Sun Wukong painted on it, shook it in front of Yuan Shu, and compared it.

"Anyway, I've eaten both of them, and they don't taste good..."

Yuan Shu recognized the Monkey King Pill. Of course, he also recognized the purple and white packaging of the fig, and shook his head.

"Hey, Tataer, look, there are shredded shiitake mushrooms, have you ever eaten this?"

The young man noticed a red package that was pressed underneath, and then he took it out and asked with a smile.

"No, but I've seen it."

Tang Yimeng said.

"I remember this was the most popular thing when I was in elementary school. It cost [-] cents a bag, and one yuan was a bigger package. We bought it and went to the toilet to eat it. Each of us grabbed a big handful and then stuffed it into our mouths. Shit, it’s very fragrant.”

Yuanshu said with a smile.

"Eat it in the toilet? Doesn't it taste good?"

Tang Yimeng was a little taken aback.

"It was very clean back then. It was even cleaner than it is now. Moreover, the toilets at that time were full of the smell of disinfectant. Anyway, the toilets were particularly suitable for eating snacks or for students to play in them and not allow them to take them away. Best place to get toys for school.”

Yuan Shu showed a very nostalgic expression.

"But when you eat snacks, why do you have to go to the toilet to eat them?"

Tang Yimeng expressed her understanding, but she still didn't understand that there were so many places to choose from.

"Because shredded shiitake mushrooms have a strong smell, we can only hide in the toilet to eat them. Once we eat them in class, the teacher will search the pockets of everyone to find who hid the snacks."

Yuanshu said.

"Oh, that···"

Tang Yimeng suddenly understood.

"We had evening self-study at that time, but it was an elective interest-based evening class, between five and six o'clock. Before that, we would go out of school and go to the canteen across the road to eat and drink. After they are full, they go back to class. Then students who are not full or want to eat more will buy some shredded shiitake mushrooms, beef and sheep mix, malice, and fat beef with shiitake mushrooms when they go back and hide them in class. Eat at the table during class.”

Yuanshu recalled.

"Can you go out of school casually when you are in school?!"

Tang Yimeng was a little surprised.

"Yes, when we were in elementary school, we actually couldn't just go out of school at will. The teacher would still catch people. It's just that we could go out casually after school in the evening, but we definitely couldn't at other times. We casually went out, and I remember the teacher seemed to have caught us, but I didn’t catch up, because I usually bought it back to eat, or asked others to help carry it.”

Yuan Shu nodded, then thought about it with some hesitation, and said.

"I remember that I didn't know how to buy at that time, so I just bought and ate blindly, and I didn't know what to eat. It was the whole Mai Lisu, and there were some small raccoon crispy noodles, but when I ate it, my classmates from other classes After sharing the snacks for myself, I have a lot of things I like to eat, such as shredded shiitake mushrooms, crispy noodles with spicy crab, beef and mutton, and... beef gluten and all kinds of messes."

Yuan Shu smiled and had to say that things were really fun when he was a child.

"Can't you eat spicy food?"

Tang Yimeng asked.

“When I was a kid, I didn’t seem to be that afraid of spicy food. I would still find it very spicy, but I found it very fragrant, so I liked eating it very much. It was a gradual process. Now I don’t like spicy food, and I can’t eat anything spicy. ”

Yuan Shu was startled and said.

Tang Yimeng nodded tightly and then asked: "Do you want to buy anything else? We can also go shopping in front. There are a lot of delicious and fun things there."

"Okay, let me take a look again."

Nodding, Yuan Shu looked around, and then walked over quickly.

"this is···?"

Tang Yimeng asked as she watched Yuan Shu pick up a bottle of black drink.

"This is a fruit pop. I used to drink it when I was in elementary school. There was always a store above my neighborhood selling this. I didn't expect to see it again after so many years."

Said with some excitement, Yuan Shu quickly put four different flavors of fruit pops into the basket.

"I remembered that I drank a drink when I was a child. What was it called... I can't remember clearly."

Tang Yimeng frowned. The word was on her lips, but she couldn't remember it.

"A body drink?"

The appearance of green and blue drinks appeared in Yuanshu's mind.

"Yes, yes! That's it. I drank it once when I was a kid, but I can't find this kind of drink now. It doesn't seem to be sold here."

The words that Tang Yimeng had been unable to remember suddenly became clear to him, and he spoke them again and again.

"It was very early, the earliest sports drink. My family always bought it at that time. Later, there were some pulses, such as Pocari Sweat and Gatorade. But at first I felt it was very unpleasant to drink the sports drink. It tastes good after being chilled, so it’s a bit of a pity that I can’t drink it now.”

Yuanshu said softly.

"Yes."

Tang Yimeng nodded.

······
After leaving the childhood grocery store, Yuan Shu and the two walked north again. When they came to an intersection, the young man also noticed a car coming from the alley on the right.

Drip!

"I never thought you could drive here."

Yuan Shu said in astonishment.

"Yes, sometimes there are cars in this direction, but they are all tricycles or motorcycles. There are only cars in the horizontal direction."

Tang Yimeng stretched out her hand and gestured.

"Hey, isn't this Gaier Hutong? Why does it look so familiar to me? To the east, isn't it the place where we had our make-up lessons when we were first divided into classes?"

Yuan Shu's eyes lit up and he immediately pointed in the direction of his right hand.

"Yes, Gaier Hutong itself is on the central axis of Nanxuantian Lane. Do you want to take a look there?"

Tang Yimeng nodded slightly and asked.

"Haha, I won't go. It looks very narrow and messy. Let's go take a look at the front?"

Yuan Shu refused with a smile.

"Hey, potato tart?"

As he and Tang Yimeng continued to walk forward, Yuan Shu smelled the fragrant smell of fried potatoes, and then cast his eyes to the left.

"Well, this is delicious too."

Tang Yimeng nodded and said.

"Have you eaten?"

Yuan Shu looked at Tang Yimeng, as if he had already eaten.

"I have eaten it. I have eaten it before. It tastes good, but this potato tart shop in the alley is not as good as the ones outside."

Tang Yimeng said.

"Outside? Is there anyone selling potato tarts?"

Yuan Shu was stunned and asked.

"Go right after exiting Nanxuantian Alley. There is a potato tart shop over there. It's very delicious. It's fried very crispy. It's better than this one."

Tang Yimeng pointed forward, then turned to the right.

"Then why don't you try the one outside?"

Yuanshu said with a smile.

"Okay, but why don't you try this one today, I think they have freshly baked ones."

Tang Yimeng pointed to the small shop that makes potato tarts.

"Okay, okay, you see, this is all God's arrangement. Ta'er, Tuta'er, are you a good match for me?"

Yuan Shu naturally saw that this store had freshly baked potato tarts, and immediately walked over with Tang Yimeng with a smile.

"Haha, they really match each other, but they are potato tarts, not potato tarts."

Tang Yimeng followed with a smile.

"Oh, almost, it's all the same anyway."

Walking to the door of the small shop, Yuan Shu swallowed his saliva when he smelled the delicious and strong fried potato tart, "Master, here is a potato tart."

"Okay, fifteen."

The man wearing a transparent tight-fitting cap turned around and took out a potato tart. As soon as Yuan Shu opened the payment interface, he immediately stopped the man, "Hey, Master, I want one, I just fried that one."

"Oh."

Hearing this, the man put the potato tart in his hand aside, then turned around and picked up a freshly fried potato tart. After pouring tomato sauce on it, he wrapped it in a paper bag and handed it to Yuan Shu.

"Wow, this one is connected together. I thought it was cut off and put on piece by piece."

Holding a potato skewer that was dozens of centimeters long, Yuanshu said in surprise.

"Yes, they seem to have a machine with a special potato cutting tower. You put the potatoes on it and peel them out directly."

Tang Yimeng looked back and said.

"Take a bite and try it."

Yuan Shu couldn't wait any longer, so he immediately bit down on the top of the tower, and then smoothed it down.
