Restarting life in Siheyuan

Chapter 17 Round belly and crooked mouth
The cook or clerk at the back tidied up for a while and finally came out. You can't blame them for this. It's because you came early, don't you accept it?Take a look at the tips.

A young man who looked very smart, not like a waiter but more like an apprentice, took the order and pen and walked over.

"Hey, you three are quite early. We have just finished our work. Please forgive me." Before anyone arrives, I would like to say good luck.

"What do you three want to eat today? It's a coincidence that you're here. We have all the dishes on the brand today. You can choose from them."

Zhu Xuefeng had already finished reading. The seafood here was good, but it was a pity that there were no ingredients and there were not many choices. He ordered sea cucumber, but everything else had to be meat.

"One sea cucumber stir-fried with green onion, one braised pork, one fried meatball, one sweet and sour pork loin, and some peanuts, three small stewed pork noodles, six mutton skewers, that's it. If it's not enough, I'll add more."

The waiter filled out the form and glanced at Zhu Xuefeng.

"You three, you really can't eat so much, it won't be enough. Chenghui's total is three yuan and ninety-four cents, three taels of food stamps, and eight taels of meat stamps.

This is a big meal. Adults only get [-] taels of meat coupons per month. The three of them can eat up more than a month's worth of planning in this meal. It's a luxury, an extraordinary luxury.

"It's okay. Don't worry. If you can't eat it, take it home for your next meal. I heard your braised chicken is good. When you leave, you can pack me another braised chicken and we can pay the bill together."

"Dear, two more dollars and eighty cents, please wait a moment, please listen to orders, you have to get your own food."

After taking the receipt, Zhu Xuefeng nodded, indicating that he understood.

After thinking about it for a while, I decided to forget it. I definitely couldn’t finish these, and left the other special dishes for next time.

Zhu Xuefeng took the order to the counter to pay, took a number one, and returned to the dining table to wait patiently with his brothers and sisters.

After only a few minutes of waiting, I heard a shout from the chef: "Get the food on the [-]st."

Zhu Xuefeng greeted them, and the three of them came to the food pick-up window and served the food one by one.

Looking at the meat and vegetables, the two little ones couldn't move their eyes away. Although they ate bone bones a few days ago, they were basically bones and not much meat. Today, they were all meat and no bones.

They all held chopsticks and looked at Zhu Xuefeng eagerly. Zhu Xuefeng said with a smile.

"Why bother? Eat slowly, no one will grab it."

The two of them shook off their cheeks and started moving directly. No one was trying to grab anything and they had already forgotten about it. No one was talking and they were asking questions.

Zhu Xuefeng moved slowly and gracefully. There was so much, it was impossible to finish it. It would be embarrassing to compete with his younger brothers and sisters.

While savoring it slowly, not to mention, these were often eaten in later generations, and the seasonings were much richer than now. It seems that it really doesn't have the same taste. I don't know if the materials have changed or the technique has not been passed down.

Stir-fried sea cucumbers with green onions is a traditional method of Shandong cuisine. There are only a few sea cucumbers in a plate, and they are divided into sections. It seems that later generations will not be divided into sections. I can’t remember.Pour on the juice, mixed with slightly yellowed green onions, and it smells fragrant.

This thing nourishes people, and a certain team in later generations eats it every day. It makes sense, and it is just enough to supplement the two little ones.

Everyone is told to eat one sea cucumber before they are allowed to eat anything else. The taste of sea cucumbers is incredible, so I have to find an opportunity to stock up on sea cucumbers.

I ate some green onions again. The green onions were cooked in a weird way and were just fragrant. Zhu Xuefeng barely managed to cook at Level [-], but he didn’t know the secret.

The sweet and sour pork is cooked using the old-fashioned method of sweet and sour, not tomato-based. It is sweet and sour, crispy on the outside and tender and charred on the inside, which is very delicious.

Jiao Liu meatballs, the shell of the meatballs is crispy, and the dry fried meatballs are coated in sweet and sour sauce, which is different from dry fried meatballs.

Small stewed pork noodles, the stewed meat tastes soft and fat, and the stewed meat soup makes the noodles extremely chewy.

After eating for a while, Zhu Xuefeng took out the grilled mutton skewers.

"Eat this first, two skewers per person. It won't taste good when it's cold. You have to finish the stewed pork noodles and you can't take them away."

The mutton skewers were fried very fragrant, charred on the outside and tender on the inside, just like the fried skewers in Daoxiang Village. It was very fragrant when eaten while hot. Zhu Xuefeng took a big bite and found the feeling of eating skewers at a roadside stall. It was not easy.

There was a gust of wind and clouds, and Zhu Xuefeng had only been six or seven full when he saw Zhu Xuemei raised her head nervously, looked at Zhu Xuefeng, and said embarrassedly. "Brother, I'm a little bit full, but I can't finish the noodles."

No matter how greedy she is, no matter how crazy she eats, she is only an 11-year-old girl after all, so she really can’t pretend much.

"Okay, why don't you go out for a walk and then come back." Zhu Xuefeng said with a smile.

"Brother is bullying." Zhu Xuemei pouted.

"Okay, if you can't finish it, give it to your second brother. You can watch him."

Zhu Xuesong's noodles have been solved, and he is now competing with the mutton skewers.

"Forget it, give it to me, your second brother's meat skewers are probably pretty good."

Zhu Xuefeng took the noodles and cleaned them up after a few mouthfuls.

The three of them ate a lot, and finally ended the fight with a round belly and a crooked mouth. Zhu Xuefeng took out two lunch boxes from his schoolbag, packed the rest, and removed the meat from the skewers.

Dinner is also served, which saves trouble today.

After walking out of the hotel, looking at the two children in a state of embarrassment, Zhu Xuefeng shook his head. He was well-endowed and knew etiquette. If he wanted to eat something good to fill his stomach, there was still a long way to go.

…………

We walked all the way back home. Fortunately, the journey was a bit long, otherwise it would be difficult to digest food and we would really feel sleepy after eating. The two children wanted to go to bed. Zhu Xuefeng had something else to do, so he coaxed the two of them to the middle room to squeeze in a rest, and then returned to Bei. house.

After making preparations, he opened the window, took off his clothes, took out the marrow-cleansing pill, and looked at the elixir flowing with a layer of dark light. He was amazed and took the pill without hesitation.

The scars on the body slowly became lighter and then disappeared, something like sludge oozed out from under the skin, and a sour and stinky smell began to fill the room.

Zhu Xuefeng quickly washed it with hot water.

"Brother, what are you doing? What does it smell like?" Zhu Xuemei had already started shouting, and Zhu Xuesong was even more direct, getting up and opening the window for fresh air.

The three wing rooms are basically connected above each other, so it is difficult to isolate them from sound, let alone smell.

"Brother is just changing the dressing, so I prescribed it." He quickly added, "No need for help, it's over now, you can go to sleep."

After barely getting clean, he quickly put on his clothes and rushed out of the hospital.

When Zhu Xuefeng came back refreshed, it was already half an hour later. He went home, picked up his clothes, and rode straight to the bathhouse.

There was almost no one in the bathhouse at noon. It was just after dinner, and it would take a while for anyone to come. I found a hidden corner and rubbed myself hard. My skin was almost broken, and I didn't dare to find anyone to bathe with.

I came out of the bathhouse and rode my bike home. As soon as I entered the courtyard, I heard the sound of banging and banging coming from the backyard, as well as Liu Haizhong's loud reprimands and curses.

It was probably Liu Haizhong who was disciplining his son again. Liu Haizhong's family was also a bit interesting. Usually, the couple always took care of the eldest son in every possible way, but beat and scolded the second and third eldest children.

Sure enough, after a while, the poor brothers were seen escaping from the backyard in embarrassment. The third brother, Liu Guangfu, even lost one of his shoes. Just as he stopped and was about to go back to pick it up, he saw a small square stool flying over his head. Come on, turn your head and run away in fear.

A sigh came to my ears, "Unkind parents and unfilial children." I didn't know who it was.

After watching the excitement, I turned around and went home. I washed away the dirt and felt refreshed. I changed the bandage on my head by myself. It will be removed after a few more days.

He looks thinner. He is estimated to be about 176cm tall at 110cm, which is almost like a bamboo pole. He doesn't know what Xia Yuhong sees in him.

It's just that the whole body is fairer. Zhu Xuefeng doesn't like this skin color, but the healthy color of later generations is more suitable. It's awkward to think about such a fair-skinned worker. Besides, the word "fairy-faced" in this era is really not a good word.
