One Piece of Food

Chapter 152 The Taste of Hometown

Qin Shuyu's hometown is in a village in a large mountain in the suburban county of Pu'er City in southern Yunnan Province. When he was a child, he often went up the mountain with his parents to cut firewood and farm.

Since the working place is far away from the village, my parents went up the mountain with a bag of rice and a small bag of salt.

When I was hungry at noon, my parents would cut a tender bamboo in the bamboo forest all over the mountains and plains, and start cooking rice in bamboo tubes.

At that time, the rice in bamboo tubes that Qin Shuyu ate was not as luxurious as Yipinju.Not to mention sausage and bacon, there is not even a single oil bead.At most, they are wild vegetables that can be eaten on the mountain. Pull a few plants, wash them, stuff them into bamboo tubes and cook them together.

With the development of society and the improvement of living standards, even if parents go to the mountains, they seldom make rice in bamboo tubes. They usually bring some dry food, and they can cope with it at noon.

After Qin Shuyu went out to work as an adult, he usually didn't return home until the end of the year, and he never had bamboo rice.

However, even after many years, Qin Shuyu will never forget the original aroma of the mountain barbecue rice in bamboo tubes.

Seeing the rice in bamboo tubes on the customer's table in the Yipinju restaurant, and the faint and unforgettable scent of bamboo in the air, Qin Shuyu couldn't move anymore.

After listening to Qin Shuyu's brief introduction about the rice in bamboo tubes, and watching Qin Shuyu swallowing his saliva secretly, Yang Zhijie knew that his girlfriend must have remembered her experience of eating bamboo tube rice made by her parents when she was a child.

Thinking of the fact that my girlfriend has been with me in the past few years, and has never enjoyed any blessings. I have been working hard and working together until now, and I have saved enough money to buy a house and get married.

Moreover, in the future, the girlfriend will become a wife, far away from his hometown in southern Yunnan, and live with him in Mae Tan.When the time comes, I will have to adapt to the living habits of my relatives and Mae Tan. Thinking about it, it will not be an easy process of adaptation.

It is also a kind of fate to be able to see a snack from my girlfriend's hometown in Mae Tan.

Although it seems that Yipinju's things are quite expensive, but letting his girlfriend taste the snacks from his hometown can be considered as compensation for his girlfriend's love for him.

So Yang Zhijie said: "Since this bamboo rice is your local snack, and you haven't eaten it since you went out to work, let's eat this bamboo rice!"

I just looked at the price list of Yipinju. Although I only saw the above few, I didn’t notice the bamboo rice.However, just based on the prices of the above meals, Qin Shuyu knew that the rice in bamboo tubes must not be cheap.

She wanted to say no, but couldn't.

If it's other delicacies, no matter what, it can't arouse her such a strong desire to taste the taste.

However, bamboo rice is an exception.

This is the memory of her youth, the taste of her hometown, and the loving lunch of her parents.

Therefore, she couldn't say no to it, even if she knew that the bamboo rice must be expensive, she couldn't open her mouth.

Seeing her expression that hesitated to speak, Yang Zhijie knew that his girlfriend must really want to eat.

So, without further hesitation, he pulled his coy girlfriend, turned around again, and asked the cashier, "Excuse me, how much is your bamboo rice?"

The cashier said: "Bamboo rice is 100 yuan a piece, if you want to go with soup, chicken soup is 50 yuan a piece, and the soy milk is free."

Although they had expected it, Yang Zhijie and Qin Shuyu were still taken aback.

If the 100 yuan of bamboo rice is still within their psychological preparation, the chicken soup that comes with it is also 50 yuan, which is really beyond their imagination.

In the past, when they ate fried rice, dry noodles, and dry noodles in other restaurants, the seaweed soup, egg drop soup, carrot soup, etc. served by the restaurant were all free.Have you ever seen that you have to charge even the soup, and the price is as high as 50 yuan a serving?
Qin Shuyu swallowed, pulled Yang Zhijie's arm, and said with difficulty: "It's too expensive, Zhijie, let's go!"

Yang Zhijie turned his head to look at the expression of reluctance in his girlfriend's eyes, shook his head resolutely and said, "No, Shu Yu! For so many years, you have followed me without complaint or regret. I am very grateful to you. Today we will For a luxury, try this bamboo rice to see if it is the taste of your childhood. Not only the bamboo rice, but also the soup. Let’s see if the chicken soup in their restaurant is really worth 50 yuan. !"

Qin Shuyu looked at Yang Zhijie and nodded, his eyes were full of love.

Then, Yang Zhijie took out 300 yuan and ordered two bamboo rice and two soups.

In the end, I was told by the cashier that the rice in bamboo tubes was not available and had to be ordered.Even if you just wait in the restaurant, it will take about 1 hour to get it.

Despite this, Yang Zhijie decided to invite his girlfriend to eat bamboo rice, so he didn't mind waiting a little longer.

So, after discussing with Qin Shuyu, the two decided to order two rice in bamboo tubes, and waited in the restaurant for Rao Mingfa to be ready and delivered.

After collecting the money and issuing the meal ticket, remember Yang Zhijie's name and phone number, so that the rice in bamboo tubes made by Rao Mingfa will be delivered later. In case Yang Zhijie and Yang Zhijie are not around, they can call.

Then, the cashier called Rao Mingfa and told him that there were two customers waiting to eat bamboo rice in the restaurant.

Rao Mingfa was very excited when he received the call, and started cooking happily again.

Although the time for grilling cannot be shortened, after many operations, practice makes perfect for other steps and save a lot of time.

Therefore, less than an hour later, Rao Mingfa's wife Wu Camellia delivered the two bamboo tube rice ordered by Yang Zhijie to the restaurant.

After several demonstrations, the chefs in the kitchen already know how to break bamboo tubes, and there is no need for Rao Mingyang to do it again.

One-third of the bamboo tube that Wu Camellia had washed at home was uncovered and put on the dinner plate, together with two bowls of chicken soup, the waiter delivered it to Yang Zhijie and the others.

During the time when Rao Mingfa was cooking bamboo rice, Yang Zhijie and Qin Shuyu had carefully browsed the history of the restaurant, the selection of ingredients, the records of awards, and the media reports on the wall of Yipinju, and only then did they know why the products of Yipinju were so expensive. .

Moreover, during this period of time, people kept coming in to eat other breakfasts. From the endless stream of customers, it can be seen that although Yipinju's food is expensive, the taste is absolutely delicious.

Otherwise, such an expensive item would not attract so many customers.

Therefore, when their bamboo rice was delivered and placed on the table in front of them, both Yang Zhijie and Qin Shuyu felt a little impatient, picked up a spoon, scooped a spoonful from the bamboo tube, put it in their mouths, and began to taste it.
