Restarting life in Siheyuan

Chapter 66 Roasted meat
"Why don't I take you to a meat-and-eat dinner to satisfy your cravings?"

"Okay, okay." Everyone said in unison.

"Elder brother, I want to go too!"

Little Zhu Fu, who is just over 1.4 meters tall, also shouted. Zhu Xuefeng is the oldest in the team, and now that they are familiar with each other, they all like to call him senior brother. Fortunately, he is not second senior brother.

Although little Zhu Fu is young, his skills are not bad. He started to develop basic skills at the age of four, and now he is the student with the most solid basic skills. He came to the school when it opened here.

He is considered a veteran of the sports school. He is really young and senior. In a few years, there may be some students who are not much younger or older than him and call him uncle. It is interesting to think about it.

"Let's pool money to have a meal." Several people expressed their opinions. It is common for brothers and sisters to pool money for a meal. There is nothing to say.

Although these years are very hard, there are still many joint-venture restaurants. After all, money still needs to be circulated. How can we develop if every household is holding on to money tightly.

Those who can come to practice martial arts are basically guaranteed to have enough to eat. If you are poor in literature and rich in martial arts, you can’t practice without having enough to eat, so you still have a few dollars in your pocket. It’s old and young, and with the tickets you can Have a big meal.

"That's not necessary. I'm the one to blame today. I've made everyone greedy. It's my fault."

Everyone roared with laughter.

Zhu Xuefeng didn't care about this small amount of money. Besides, where could Zhu Fu collect money? He was only ten years old, so it was weird to have money in his pocket.

"I know there is a small shop in Houhai. Let's go have barbecue."

Gao Bo made a suggestion, but Xie Minghui hesitated and didn't say anything.

Zhu Xuefeng guessed it was a matter of money. Meat was expensive, so how could barbecue be cheap?It is estimated that Xie Minghui was worried that Zhu Xuefeng spent too much money and seemed to be taking advantage of others.

Zhu Xuefeng looked at his watch, "Time is a bit tight, everyone, hurry up and pack up and set off."

Gao Bo lived nearby and knew it best. Everyone stood up one after another. Xie Minghui pulled Gao Bo and muttered a few words.

After a while, seven and a half heroes swarmed out and rushed towards Houhai.

The back seaside is full of small square tables, most of which are tea stalls. You can sit with a pot of tea for a whole day, and some also sell breakfast. After receiving the breakfast, they continue to sell tea.

Zhu Xuefeng couldn't figure out whether it was state-owned, jointly owned, street-owned or purely private. There were too many, so it was probably all possible.

Gao Bo gradually fell behind. Zhu Xuefeng also looked at the tea stall and fell behind.

"Brother Feng, I didn't think about this carefully. Senior Brother Xie reminded me just now. We will settle the bill with you later."

"Okay, don't ruin everyone's interest. This small amount of money is fine. I have a lot of subsidies for my several business trips. Don't worry, I have already made my own money. You are still living off your parents. It's different."

Gao Bo didn't speak any more.

The group of people had a good time. It wasn't too far away, and they arrived in ten minutes. The store was not big, and it was probably a joint venture. It was not crowded at this point, so there was no need to fight for a seat.

This can only be regarded as a small shop. There are several well-known barbecue restaurants in the capital. For example, during the barbecue season not far from here, the business is said to be very popular, and you have to queue up to wait for your order.

They found a round table, and everyone asked Zhu Xuefeng to take the main seat, with Xie Minghui on the right. Everyone took their seats one by one. Gao Bo wanted to take care of him, so he took a seat near the exit. Instead, he asked little Zhu Fu to sit on Zhu Xuefeng's right hand.

This seat has to be followed the rules in the capital. The oldest person in age and seniority should sit in the main seat, and then the others should sit next to each other in order.

The shop is small, with only seven or eight square tables and two round tables. As meal time approaches, people slowly start to fill up.

Barbecue at this time is not cheap. At this time, no one who doesn’t know how to eat at home will not eat. It is normal to eat up a month’s salary in this meal. Anyone who can come here must have something in his pocket.

This capital city is unique in this way. No matter how hard the days are, there is no shortage of powerful officials and there is never a shortage of rich people, so various joint venture restaurants have no worries about business.

There is no meat ticket here, the meat is rationed every day, and it will be gone when it is sold out. Of course, there is still a lot of meat, and it is collected at designated places. The quality is guaranteed, but it is expensive.

The store is not big, and there is only one waiter. I heard that there was another waiter, but he got into a dispute with someone and injured someone. Now he seems to have gone to live with relatives out of town.Think about the slogan about not hitting customers. The waiters everywhere are very good, so it’s better not to mess with them. This is probably where the dispute will occur.

The signature of the store is barbecue. In addition to the famous copper pot-shabu-shabu mutton in Beijing, another traditional way of eating is Zhizi barbecue. It is fragrant and attractive. It is also the best choice for many elderly people in Beijing.

It is said that this type of charcoal barbecue method began in the frontier fortress and was introduced to the capital by the Mongols. It is also said that it was the Huns earlier, but there is no test of this.

The method is to marinate the beef and mutton cut into small pieces with onions, ginger, and sauce. In some places, they are cut into slices. Then, pine wood and pine cones are used as fuel, and an iron plate is placed on top and grilled on the iron plate. The taste is very good.

Nowadays, countless improvements have been made in traditional craftsmanship and taste, making it more suitable for people's taste.

……

As for Zhu Xuefeng and the others, despite the crowd, they are still a bit young. After entering the restaurant and sitting down, they were still a little reserved. They probably haven't been out of restaurants very often.

Gao Bo must have been here, and Zhu Xuefeng left it to him to make arrangements, which was very orderly, and he was really a talent.

After a while, Gao Bo ordered several plates of beef, mutton, pork belly, beef tongue, etc., as well as some vegetables, peppers, cucumbers, steamed buns and so on.

"Today I want to open your eyes. Their restaurant, despite its small size, has a great job. The plum flavor of the barbecue is very prominent. The roast beef tastes super authentic. The fat and lean mutton tastes pure. Add a little cumin and chili. It's called One of them is amazing, let’s have a taste of it later.”

Under the big iron plate in the middle of the table, there is a copper hot pot with yellow and orange colors like a basin. The pine cones and pine wood have been lit on fire. The iron plate is brushed with a thin layer of oil, and colorless flames lick the bottom of the pot. , the oil will make a sizzling sound after a while.

"Every beef and mutton has its own story. The first is the place of origin, the second is the mouth of the country, and the third is the store's secret method and processing techniques..."

Gao Bo was completely in landlord mode. He talked endlessly and seemed to be well-informed.

"Gao Bo, who did you listen to these nonsense? You know it all by heart."

Zhu Xuefeng joked, this kid still has a problem with being too cute.

"Hey, this is my dad and uncle who brought me here. I listened, hehe."

It was true. Seeing that the temperature was rising, Gao Bo asked everyone to quickly place the small ones in a circle along the edge of the iron plate. Twenty small ones should be enough.

He looked down at Zhu Xuefeng and said with a smile.

"Brother Feng, if you eat meat but don't drink alcohol, you've come to this world in vain. Let's have some wine."

A bunch of half-grown men, if they drink some wine, they probably learned it from their father and uncle, and then throw punches, it will be a lot of trouble, forget it.

Zhu Xuefeng shook his head and did not agree.

"Drink some Arctic Ocean. There are cultural classes in the afternoon. If the teacher finds out that you have drunk, you probably won't get better."

Gao Bo thought about it and forgot that he had classes in the afternoon.

"Do it, the fire is coming,"

Xie Minghui also stood up. Seeing that the junior brothers didn't know what to do, he ordered.

"Little monkey, put the cow's tongue in front of you, Dongzi, put the fat sheep too.

Everyone put the marinated thin slices of beef tenderloin neatly in the middle, and placed some beef tongue and mutton on the outside, and sprinkled some onions and other vegetables on top.

"Let me just say a few words. Today, Brother Feng will treat you all to a barbecue. Don't go out to get drunk when you get back. There is a guard on your lips."

Everyone understands that there are only seven and a half people here, and there are still people who are not here, so it is best not to talk nonsense about some things.

"Thank you, Senior Brother Zhu...".
