Luting Canteen

Chapter 10 The Vegetable Market in the Morning

When Li Hui woke up, the genius was slightly bright, and the habit of getting up early probably recovered slowly after getting settled.Little by little, he took out the warm quilt from Yan Ting's arms and got off the bed barefoot. The light in the room was still dim, and Li Hui only saw the vague silhouette of a human figure on the bed, so he tiptoed around with the clothes he needed to put on out the door.

After washing, Li Hui rolled up his sleeves and carefully dried the water in the sink. The sweater was not very absorbent, but he didn't want to use toilet paper to wipe it. When he knew what it was for, he already felt distressed. , where are you willing to use it to absorb water.

"use this,"

Li Hui's eyes lit up, it turned out that the light was turned on, Li Hui looked back, Yan Ting narrowed his eyes and handed a cotton wipe from behind with a sleepy face, he yawned and asked again:

"Why don't you turn on the lights?"

Li Hui lowered his head:

"Young master said that you need money to buy electricity..."

Yan Ting thought that he was probably worried about his salary, so he patted the little head and said:

"Don't worry, there is no charge for this."

In fact, Li Hui wanted to save Yan Ting a little, but he was too embarrassed to say so, so he just nodded, and suddenly felt wrong:

"Young master, are you because I didn't sleep well?"

I just woke up from sleep and didn't even have a dream.Li Hui looked at Yan Ting who started brushing his teeth in embarrassment, clenched his fists and said:

"Either, or, I'd better use my wages to buy a... bed."

If you borrow money from the son first, how long will it take to pay it back?Yan Ting glanced in the mirror at the distressed little man who hadn't hidden it, and laughed in his heart, coughed with toothpaste foam and nodded seriously:

"Well, I'll think about it."

After receiving an affirmative answer, Li Hui felt distressed at first, but immediately told himself with a grateful heart that as long as the young master slept well, he was taken in and taken in, so he should not have any extravagant expectations.I don't know how to read that thing called a mobile phone, and I probably don't know how to use it, so let's not think about it for now.

"Come here to drink milk, eat a poached egg first, and eat some later when you come back."

Yan Ting guessed that Li Hui must be thinking about something again, so he went to the kitchen first, and called Li Hui to come over quickly.I warmed up a full glass of milk for Li Hui, then cracked two more eggs into the frying pan, and almost turned to low heat to fry them, and when the edges turned golden brown, I covered the lid, listening to the prickling sound, Li Hui drank the milk in peace.After a while, the two bottoms were fried until golden yellow and the surface was white and tender. The poached eggs with light pink yolks were spread out on the plate and placed in front of them.

"Soy sauce and salt, which one do you want?"

Yan Ting held up two small bottles, seeing that Li Hui was uncertain, he sprinkled the seasoning one by one.

"Tell me what you like to eat in the future."

Li Hui nodded, at this time there was a knock on the kitchen door, the two turned their heads and saw that it was Tang Meng who had come.

"It's just right, let's have some food to pad our stomachs first."

"Okay. Li Hui, good morning, how did you sleep last night?"

Pulling back the chair, Tang Meng asked Li Hui while thanking Yan Ting who handed over the eggs.

"I, I slept well, but my son..."

Glancing at Yan Ting who was serving him a plate, Li Hui whispered.

"It's okay, don't worry, he woke up so early, which means he slept well. Otherwise, unless you pinch his nose, you can't wake him up."

Seeing Li Hui's somewhat surprised expression, Tang Meng thought that this person must have not explained to Li Hui, so he couldn't help laughing at Yan Ting.

"What are you laughing at?"

"It's naive to laugh at someone."

"Eating can't stop you from talking, it's really more and more like Ye Qi."

Yan Ting glanced at Tang Meng and asked again:

"Did he come home last night?"

"It should be, but I was not allowed to send it later."

"Oh."

Li Hui's attention was all on the egg, and when he poked it with his chopsticks, the warm egg yolk flowed down the thin egg white, so he didn't notice that the two of them were worried when they talked about Ye Qi.When he looked up, the two were talking and laughing in the same way as usual.

After everyone finished eating, Li Hui went to wash the dishes, and Yan Ting tied a ball head for him before going out. Li Hui thought it would be good if he came by himself, but Yan Ting seemed to be enjoying it so he didn't say anything.

"Li Hui's hair is very smooth."

Tang Meng picked up a bunch and rubbed it with his fingers, Yan Ting patted his hand unceremoniously:

"Put the paws away."

Tang Meng was not angry, but Li Hui was a little uneasy:

"I, should I cut my hair?"

"It doesn't matter, there are many men with long hair nowadays,"

"If you really want to cut it, cut it to the shoulder."

Yan Ting wanted to say that the length should be quite suitable for Li Hui, but unexpectedly Li Hui agreed immediately.

Among the guests who came last night, some whispered about how the child's hair is so long, and Li Hui overheard it when delivering the food. They were worried that their appearance would cause trouble for Yan Ting and the others, so they thought about cutting their hair , I had an ideological struggle, and wanted to cut it to the same length as Yan Ting, but I didn't expect that Yan Ting said to keep it to the shoulder, and Li Hui himself felt that it was acceptable, so he agreed without hesitation.

"Young master, I think, I want to cut it right away."

Yan Ting glanced at Li Hui who was very active:

"Go to the market first, I'll call Ye Qi over later."

"Ye Qi...?"

Seeing that Li Hui was puzzled, Tang Meng explained with a smile:

"Xiaoqi can cut his hair. Although it's just some simple hairstyles, it's no problem to cut it short."

Yan Ting waved his hand:

"Okay, let's go, I'll take a nap for a while."

In the vegetable market after [-] o'clock, more than half of the stalls are preparing to arrange vegetables, and some are covered with plastic sheets. Basically, they will not come until after [-] o'clock.

Everyone neatly arranged the vegetables one by one with the lights on. In front of each stall, there were large plastic bags full of vegetables, and there were also foam boxes. Li Hui took a closer look and found that there were vegetables filled with vegetables plastic bottle.

"It's still very hot here in November. When it's summer, we'll put it in the refrigerator to freeze it and then put it in a foam box. Especially in this vegetable market, some vegetables are transported from the mountains, and some It is even more important to keep it fresh. This is the cheapest way.”

Tang Meng explained to Li Hui, and asked again:

"How do you buy vegetables at Hengle Building?"

Li Hui thought for a while, then seriously replied:

"Early in the morning, there will be a vegetable vendor bringing freshly picked vegetables. If there are any not-so-fresh ones at noon, they will be our meals. In summer, the well water is cold, and there is a well-ventilated and shaded place next to the stove. There is a large row of bamboo cabinets over there, we soaked vegetables with well water and put them in the bamboo cabinets.”

Tang Meng listened with relish, these details are not mentioned too much in the book, now he can listen to Li Hui's detailed explanation, he feels really happy.

"By the way, Li Hui, when you're free, you can tell Yan Ting about these things in Heng Le Lou,"

"Yes, sir?"

"Well, Yan Ting is very interested in Heng Le Lou, and he even went there by himself before."

Li Hui was taken aback.

"Young master, have you ever been to Hengle Tower?"

"Ah, I forgot that Li Hui didn't know yet," Tang Meng paused, and then said, "Now the Heng Le Building is still there."

Seeing Li Hui's eyes wide open, Tang Meng immediately explained:

"The building of Hengle Building is still there, but only a small part remains. After all, it has been through so many years, and—"

"Old Tang!"

Before he finished speaking, Tang Meng was slapped on the shoulder. Seeing him smile bitterly, Li Hui said before turning his head:

"Song Song, I've said it many times, can you stand a little farther away when you say hello and not be so sudden."

"Oh, I forgot, forgot."

The strong man named Song Song laughed and asked again:

"Where's the little flag?"

"he's resting today."

"You alone—" Song Song raised his eyebrows when he spotted the silent Li Hui next to Tang Meng, "Oh, it's really rare to bring a little girl with you."

Tang Meng put his hand on Li Hui's shoulder, pressed it twice indiscriminately, and said to Song Song:

"This is my cousin, who came to Yan Ting for an internship."

"Is it a man?" Song Song looked at Li Hui again, and laughed: "Sorry, sorry, it is indeed a man. Your hair is too long and you are short. I thought it was a little girl."

Hearing "the hair is too long and the person is short", Li Hui lowered his head.

"My cousin is going to be nineteen."

Tang Meng flirted with Song Song, but unfortunately the other party didn't realize it. Fortunately, Song Song's attention was immediately attracted by a man in a smock carrying half a pig.

"Hey, Old Tang, Boss Xiao has meat here, do you want to buy it?"

"I'll take Li Hui to have a look, he's in charge today."

When Li Hui came, he heard from Tang Meng that Lu Ting had always been the place where they would buy whatever fresh and good food they saw, and Yan Ting would decide what to do that day.So the menu is written with two meat and one vegetarian, and one meat and two vegetarian are similar to this note, and there are also some fixed dishes that regular customers know.If you happen to come across ingredients brought in from the mountains, Luting will also put a sign on it to mark it. This kind of food will be a little more expensive, but because the price is reasonable and the taste is good, everyone is willing to accept it.Before going out today, Yan Ting told Li Hui that if he saw the food he wanted, he could buy it.

"Don, cousin, let's go."

After changing the address in time, Li Hui offered to take a look, and the three of them went to the meat stand.Song Song and Tang Meng greeted Xiao Bo, the stall owner.The other party is a man in his 50s, he doesn't talk much, but he is very quick when handling meat.Song Song asked for a pig's foot, and Xiao Bo put a board on the marble table, chopped it off with a machete, shook it, and showed it to Song Song. Hairy.Li Hui was fascinated by watching, Song Song poked Tang Meng's waist with his elbow and asked in a low voice:

"Your cousin, are you working at Luting?"

"Well, it just started yesterday."

"Why haven't I heard you mention it before?

"It's a child from my hometown. I just came here recently, and there are still many places that I don't quite adapt to."

Song Song said "Oh" and nodded, remembering that Tang Meng's hometown seemed to be in a very remote mountain:

"My old cypress asked if you would go drinking this Thursday."

Tang Meng smiled:

"You old cypress, old cypress, if you talk too fast, others think you are talking about your wife."

This is about Lanze's boss Yang Shubai, a man in his 30s who looks very elegant with gold-rimmed glasses. After dating Song Song, both of them resigned and came to Laojie to open Lanze.

"Don't tell him that,"

Song Song knew that Yang Shubai didn't like being called that, so he quickly reminded him.Tang Meng nodded, but he thought that everyone in the vegetable market knew about it. Do you think Yang Shubai didn't know about it?

Of course, he would not tell Song Song this.
