The lonely foodie

After returning to the store and settling down for Xiao Huihui, the two of them remembered that they hadn't eaten dinner yet, but they were too tired to talk or move. Fortunately, breathing didn't require effort, or they could have saved their breathing.

"From tomorrow onwards, at most 12 tables will be served every day." Mo Bai struggled to stand up, kicking his sore legs.

In the kitchen, there are meat swallow skins that have been made before. The salted duck eggs are boiled and fried in a pan until the skin is crispy. Cook them with fish balls and meat swallows. Sprinkle with chopped green onion and serve.

This simple and delicious food, Mobai read it from Zhang Yan's blog.

After eating a bowl of hot soup and meat, Ivan finally regained some strength, got up and found a pen and paper and handed it to Mo Bai.

Mo Bai understood what he meant, the two had discussed this matter before.

Dear distinguished guests: Thanks to everyone's love, Heping Hot Pot Restaurant has been full of customers since its opening. However, in view of the limited reception capacity of the restaurant and in order to ensure the quality of the food, from today onwards, the restaurant only accepts reservations, and no reservations are made every day. More than 12 tables, while supplies last.

At the end of the A4 paper, I left the reservation phone number, and Mo Bai handed the written notice to Ivan, "Let's stick it on the door first."

Ivan took it over, "The next step is to create a customer profile. In the future, it is convenient and efficient to notify such things directly by text message. You can also talk to Zhang Yan, and the effect of asking her to post a blog will be much better than this. "

"We have to sell the empty store next to it as soon as possible and recruit employees." After Ivan instructed, he took a glue stick out of the counter and went to the door to post a notice.

"How about calling the empty shop next door?" Mo Bai put the cap back on the pen, and carefully put it into the small drawer of the bar.

After Ivan posted the notice, he took two steps back to make sure that the posting was quite upright, not crooked, and then he replied to Mobai, "The landlord said that he didn't consider renting out. After talking for a long time, the other party's asking price is too high, so please try again. .”

Mo Bai nodded, Xu was used to it since he was a child, and Ivan did these things very reassuringly.

Unexpectedly, as soon as I was relieved, something happened the next day.

Mo Bai received a call from Zhang Yan early in the morning, asking what happened to the photo on the Internet, and why the notice posted on the door was different from the one sent to her.

Ivan was also at a loss, but his reaction was much faster than Mo Bai, a person who was derailed by technology, and immediately took out his mobile phone to check Zhang Yan's Weibo.

There is no problem with Weibo, they sent Zhang Yan yesterday a notice to book 12 tables a day, but many people are scolding under the comments.

Ivan was a little confused when someone scolded their store for bullying customers. They are a small dilapidated store that can only accommodate 5 tables.

But the vast majority of netizens are not so polite. Many voices shouted that they should not be allowed to be so arrogant, and they must be killed. Among them, the word "poor" appeared most frequently.

Ivan followed the vine and found a Weibo called "Ostrich is not a bird". This is also a very influential local Weibo, which became popular mainly by exposing all kinds of weird social news.

For example, the elder sister who made finger cakes in a certain vegetable market seamlessly started kneading the dough after digging her nostrils without washing her hands.

Three men in a certain place spent 20 RMB to make 17 fake coins.

A certain man spent 20 yuan to decorate his new house, only to find out that it was someone else's home.

A couple in a community "fantasized" to win 500 million prizes, but they fought because of the uneven distribution.

Wait, etc. It's a mess of news with no way to verify its authenticity, but some people like to watch these, so they have a large number of idle/painful fans.

Ivan really didn't expect that such a righteous person like himself would be able to join this wonderful account one day.

One of the pictures on Weibo is a picture of Ivan posting a notification, and the other is the content of the notification after the camera is zoomed in.

If you are poor, please do not disturb. We will not accept the reception. Please make reservations by phone. We only accept reservations for 12 tables per day.

The booking number has not been changed.

This notice is more difficult than spending 20 to make 17 fake coins. Who the hell would post such a nonsensical thing on his door with a normal IQ?However, some people believed it, or some people just watched the excitement, so it was not a big deal. Following this Weibo, it started to fan the flames, and there was a lot of scolding on the Internet.

Ivan knows how cyber violence comes about. There are always people who act more than they think, or don’t think at all, and use the fig leaf of freedom of speech to take pleasure in attacking others without a bottom line.

The reservation phone was reserved for the landline in the store, which was ringing crazily in the store at this time, and there were a lot of people gathered in front of the store. It seemed that they were not there for dinner, and they probably came to ask for an explanation.

Ivan also found it strange, what's the point of meddling in this kind of thing, whoever meddles will admit that he is poor?

The store couldn't be opened today, so the two decided to accept Zhang Yan's suggestion, deal with it coldly, and open the store after the investigation is clear.

Account owners like ostrich usually post some eye-catching news to attract popularity, but there must be someone behind this matter, and ostrich is not stupid, and will not take the initiative to do such things that offend people without money.

I thought things would pass in a day or two, but boring people are even more boring than they imagined. Some netizens even dug out Ivan's background, and even received protection fees from elementary school students in high school.

There is also a chubby primary school student who appears in the video with a mosaic, and sues Ivan's "unbearable history" with snot and tears, which looks very poignant.

Although this is an absurd thing, people who are deeply involved in it will inevitably feel weak and confused.

The store that was finally put together, Bao Buqi will really return to before liberation because of this incident.

Ivan was so irritable that he wanted to kill.

Mo Bai is applying medicine to Xiao Huihui, the wound on his head has already healed, but the big head that has been shaved off a circle of hair has become very funny, the cat is in the Mediterranean, and the hairstyle is exactly the same as Qin Heping.

Xiao Huihui was quite depressed because of this, she didn't like to go out, she would sleep after eating, she became depressed and fat.

"If you have nothing to do, go out and look for a house." Mo Bai rubbed Xiao Huihui's stomach with his hands, and the cat purred comfortably.

The house I live in now is not exposed to the sun. Not to mention it is cold and damp after winter, and there is always a musty smell in the room. I have been talking about changing houses for a long time, and I have never had time to find a house.

There is no air conditioner in the room. Ivan was lying on the dark white bed in his pajamas, wrapped in a thick quilt, and buried his head in it like a silkworm chrysalis for a long time, and said in a low voice, "I'm not in the mood! All I have now is a hot pot restaurant I’m not in the mood to do anything.”

The cell phone thrown next to the sloth computer rang. Ivan leaned over to the bed and rested his chin on the small table. After seeing the name of the caller, he suddenly got out of bed and cleared his throat before answering the call.

"Officer Huang."

When Mo Bai heard that it was the police/police who called the police to receive them last time, he couldn't help pricking up his ears and looking this way.

The movement of the hands stopped, the cat was unwilling, and muttered dissatisfiedly for a long time.

After hanging up the phone, Silkworm Chrysalis jumped up like a dead body, put on the slippers and rushed towards his room, yelling at Mobai while running, "Change your clothes, hurry up, things are progressing over there in Kadakes .”

Apart from the hot pot restaurant, are you not in the mood for anything else?

The police/police station is resolving a neighborhood dispute case. It seems that neighbor A’s family raised a chicken on the balcony. In the morning, the rooster crows so loudly that neighbor B, who works the night shift, can’t sleep well. Neighbor B criticizes and scolds Huai Di on the balcony. Scolding neighbor A and his chicken, for a few days, he successfully scolded the chicken for being depressed, and it has not crowed for a week. The two neighbors fought about it, and now they are holding a chicken to accept mediation.

A chicken came to the police station, and the most excited one was the police dog Rhubarb, who tried every means to rush up to get /chicken.

Police officer Huang held down Da Huang who was about to move with one hand, and waved at them with the other hand, "This way, this way." After speaking, he patted Da Huang's head again, "Calm down, calm down, and be professional."

Mo Bai shook his head, lamenting that it is not easy for the people's police, life is so difficult, how can they find time to investigate the case of beautiful/yan young/women being imprisoned?

As soon as the glass door of the reception room was closed, the frenzy outside finally stopped.

Officer Huang smiled embarrassedly, picked up the landline and dialed a number, and asked the officer to bring in two cups of tea.

"I don't want to drink tea. How is the situation in Kadakes now?" Ivan just dropped his ass, eager to know the progress of the case.

"Well, I called you here today to find out more about the situation. Apart from the note you provided last time, is there any new situation after that?"

Police officer Huang avoided talking about the progress of the case. During the investigation stage of the case, these things are kept confidential.

Ivan shook his head, "That blue cat got into a fight with the wild cat, and was beaten badly, okay?"

"The blue cat is in love/fighting with the wild cat?" Officer Huang frowned, "When did it happen?"

"A week ago."

Police officer Huang pondered for a while, "Maybe it wasn't a fight with a wild cat. We had received a report from a resident of the Cadaques community before, saying that someone suspected someone was abusing the cat."

No wonder Xiao Huihui refused to go out after returning from the pet hospital. Ivan also laughed at it because it was too ugly and depressed. Now that I think about it, judging by the state of the cat, it might really be abused.

Ivan also wanted to inquire whether the Porsche man and the woman were in the same family, and whether the woman was under house arrest, but Officer Huang shook his head and said he had no comment.

It was dinner time when I came out of the police station. It was getting dark early, and the street was already filled with lights from thousands of houses. White or yellow light came out from large and small windows, warm and distant.

Ivan sighed, feeling a sense of melancholy that the world is so big, where is my home.He didn't even call for a car, and walked back along the road, Mo Bai followed behind neither far nor near.

You can't cook in the rented room, and after the store closed, the two of them ate outside, and walked to the gate of the vocational high school unknowingly.

Ivan pointed to the small alley in front of him, suddenly a little excited, "Let's eat spicy chicken and glutinous rice."

This glutinous rice restaurant next to the vocational high school is made in the southwest region. Half of the glutinous rice and half of the japonica rice are soaked overnight, and steamed with wood yam to make soft, glutinous and fragrant glutinous rice.

The topping is spicy chicken nuggets fried with glutinous rice cake chili, sprinkled with shallots and kidney beans.

When eating, mix the spicy chicken and rice well, the soft and glutinous rice soaked in the spicy chicken oil, it tastes extra spicy and enjoyable.

The store will send another bowl of chicken soup sprinkled with white pepper and green onion. After eating the glutinous rice, drink another bowl of hot chicken soup to warm you up.

The seller of spicy chicken and glutinous rice is a 40-year-old elder sister. Ivan has outstanding looks. She remembered it when she was studying in vocational high school. When she saw Ivan coming, she greeted him warmly, but the smile was superficial. On the surface, it makes people feel a little powerless.

"You came at a good time." The proprietress took two bowls of steaming glutinous rice from Mu Zhenzi, skillfully poured two tablespoons of spicy chicken on top, added kidney beans and chopped green onion to the bowls, and served them in front of them.

"Pick up the side dishes yourself." The proprietress pointed to the sour radish running in a small glass jar, and then turned back to the kitchen to make chicken soup.

The chicken soup was served, but the proprietress stood by the table and did not leave, as if she had something to say.

The author has something to say:

Muzhenzi is a traditional kitchen utensil used for steaming rice in Southwest China. People from Yunnan, Sichuan, Chongqing, and Guizhou should be familiar with it.
