Wishing Restaurant didn't want to explode

It was past five o'clock in the evening when I returned to Qingjiang City where I settled down.

The scorching sun gradually sank to the west, spraying a strong purple-red in the sky, covering the sky and covering the sky, as if trying to use up the last bit of strength to ignite the sky.

Dealing with funeral affairs and going through various formalities for several days made Liao Chu tense, coupled with hours of driving...he hadn't been so physically and mentally exhausted for a long time.

Looking up at the sunset above the horizon, I somehow felt a bit like myself struggling not to fall asleep.

But after turning his head and seeing Zai Zai who was sleeping in the dark, the exhaustion and sleepiness were miraculously relieved:

The little girl twisted her body into an unimaginable shape, her head was tilted to one side, her fleshy cheeks were squeezed together, and there was a suspicious water mark at the corner of her mouth.

He pulled the corner of his lower lip lightly.

Raising a cub seems to be not as bad as imagined.

"Oh, Xiao Liao is back?" Aunt Zhao, the landlady who was enjoying the shade outside the store, came up with a cattail fan, "I'll sell your vegetables..."

She accidentally caught a glimpse of Guo Guo in the back seat, "This is?"

Liao Chu said in a low voice, "My sister's child."

Aunt Zhao yelled.

She remembered that when Xiao Liao came to her, she said that her sister from other places had an accident, and now the children have been brought back...

Aunt Zhao sighed, and comforted softly: "People have misfortunes and fortunes, so don't be too sad. If you need help, just say it."

Liao Chu thanked him earnestly.

Aunt Zhao subconsciously lowered the volume when a child was sleeping:

"I've almost sold those dishes for you. Do you want to take back the rest of the dishes, or discount them?"

Aunt Zhao has devoted all her life to speculating in real estate without getting married, and now she has made great achievements:

The real estate on this half street is hers.

Because there are no ordinary life troubles and no shortage of money, the whole person is very enthusiastic.

It is adjacent to the well-known Experimental No. [-] Middle School, and not far away is the subway station connected to the business district. The traffic flow is huge and stable, so she opened a supermarket, and Liao Chu rented the second-floor facade room next door as a restaurant.

The pre-ordered vegetables were all from the source of the vegetable farmers, and it was not convenient to cancel the order temporarily, so Liao Chu forwarded it to Aunt Zhao.

In this city, he only knew such a person.

However, Aunt Zhao took care of him, which was considered a courtesy.

Unexpectedly, they sold the money for themselves.

Liao Chu resolutely refused to accept.

Aunt Zhao was determined not to want it: "It's not easy for you to come out and work hard at such a young age, and you have added another child. It costs a lot of money to raise a child now!"

As he said that, he transferred the money back directly from WeChat.

Liao Chu was not good at words, but couldn't resist Aunt Zhao's enthusiasm, so he had to send a sincere invitation:

"You must come to eat later."

"That's a good relationship!" Aunt Zhao said with a smile.

This young man is mature, prudent and capable. A few days ago, he changed the light bulbs and twisted the water pipes for his supermarket. He is a very good young man!

After being busy for a few days, Liao Chu was tired and hungry, so he happened to bring back the leftover vegetables to eat.

"Mom~"

Guoguo woke up rubbing her eyes, and instinctively wanted to get up, but was pushed back by the safety seat belt.

She seemed to wake up a little bit, she lowered her head and picked the strap with her chubby fingers, the memory slowly came back, and the watery eyes quickly gathered in her big eyes.

"Woo~ Uncle!"

She remembered.

The police uncle said that my mother flew away, and she went home with her uncle.

"uncle……"

The front seat completely blocked the little girl's sight, and the dimly lit carriage looked like a huge monster, which terrified her.

When Liao Chu came over to look, the little guy was hugging the old bear doll, crying so hard.

"Uncle is here."

As soon as Liao Chu unbuckled his seat belt, the little girl threw herself into his arms and hugged his neck tightly.

Just for a moment, Liao Chu felt that he was being pressed into a vat of spicy bitter gourd.

He had to dispel these smells again and again.

Pure bitterness or hemp are good condiments, but mixed together... well, the vast universe is their best home.

He patted the little girl's thin back lightly, "Uncle is here."

The little girl choked and hummed, but her little arms hugged her even tighter.

"Guoguo will never see her mother again, will she?"

The child who is only three years old has a soft milky fragrance in his voice.

She seemed to have finally glimpsed a corner of the cruel reality.

Liao Chu lowered his eyes slightly, "Uncle won't see me either."

A lie needs countless lies to complete, and children are the most sensitive. Adults' self-righteous deception is not as perfect as imagined.

He wasn't sure that he could hide it forever.

"I, I'm very good," the little girl's body was showing tension, "I'm really good, uncle, don't want me..."

She slept all the way, and now the two little braids are a little loose, one high and one low hanging crookedly on her head.

A few locks of disobedient hair were wet from the sweat from crying, and they were tightly attached to the cheeks, which was particularly distressing to watch.

"Yes," Liao Chu raised his hand to straighten the little girl's messy hair, "Let's live together in the future, okay?"

"...Okay." The little girl nodded.

Aunt Zhao, who witnessed everything, took out a lollipop from the checkout counter of her supermarket, "Do you want to eat candy?"

The little girl shrank into Liao Chu's arms subconsciously, like a frightened little quail.

Liao Chu said: "This is Aunt Zhao."

This title has nothing to do with age or object, it seems to be a customary habit of people in this area.

The little girl looked at him, then at Aunt Zhao, and whispered, "Aunt Zhao."

Aunt Zhao responded with a smile, and passed the lollipop forward again.

The little girl watched Candy and swallowed her saliva, but she still shook her head.

Liao Chu took the initiative to take the lollipop, "It's the first time we meet, let's take it."

The little girl took it hesitantly, "Thank you uncle."

Liao Chu smiled, "What about Aunt Zhao?"

The little girl blinked, and said in a childish voice, "Thank you, Aunt Zhao."

Like a qualified question-answering machine.

Aunt Zhao encouraged with a smile, "Awesome!"

She is unmarried and DINK, but it does not mean that she hates children, on the contrary, how cute and cute a well-behaved and sensible child is!

Encouraged, Guoguo pursed her lips, a little happy, "Auntie is beautiful."

Aunt Zhao was taken aback for a moment, and then she was overjoyed, "Oh, what a cute little girl!"

Guoguo habitually looked at Liao Chu, with joy in her big eyes:

Some people say that Guoguo is cute!

Uncle won't leave the lovely Guoguo behind!

After Guoguo calmed down, Liao Chu put her down and opened the door.

The rented facade house is nearly [-] square meters on one floor. It is spacious for business downstairs and living upstairs.

The moment the light was turned on, the completely unfamiliar world showed Guoguo the whole picture for the first time.

She raised her head and wowed, "A lot of tables!"

The wooden tables and chairs inside are clean and tidy, and the ground is spotless, as if the first wave of guests could be welcomed at any time.

Liao Chu pulled out a chair, "Uncle is going to get vegetables for dinner, Guoguo wait here, okay?"

The little girl volunteered, "I can help!"

Liao Chu looked down at this diced bean, which was not as tall as a spring onion, and raised his eyebrows.

Sensing the suspicion in his eyes, the little girl was a little anxious, and jumped up and said: "I really can!"

"……All right."

Being allowed to participate in adult activities is equivalent to a great sense of trust and accomplishment in the hearts of cubs, which is of great significance.

The little girl began to exude a sweet and sour aura of happiness again, bouncing around and going out.

After walking two steps, she ran back again, put the little bear on the chair carefully, patted its chest lightly and said, "Xiongxiong, Xiongxiong, I'm going to help my uncle, can you wait here for me?" ?”

She was bouncing in front, and Liao Chu followed beside her harvesting the fruits of love, like an old farmer with a good harvest.

One big and one small came to the supermarket next door, where several high school students were buying ice cream.

It was dinner time, and the students who had been trapped for a day struggled to escape from the cage called "school" and rushed to the nearby shopping street to seek comfort.

Seeing Liao Chu coming in, Aunt Zhao greeted him first, then her eyes dropped suddenly, "Hey, there is a little helper."

Guoguo proudly puffed out her chest, "Yes! Guoguo is a little helper!"

Aunt Zhao and the few high school students laughed without questioning her delivery ability.

Liao Chu asked where the dish was, and the little helper took the initiative to pick up a cauliflower.

That cauliflower was not small, but it was even bigger by her comparison.

But the little girl was very excited, yelling and walking outside, and almost tripped over with her left foot and right foot when she passed the pastry area.

"Hey," after regaining her footing, the little girl who had just recovered from the shock giggled, "It's so dangerous!"

A group of people were amused by her.

Those high school students covered their chests one after another.

"Fuck, I also want such a cute little sister!"

"Wake up, your brother will be able to fight with you in two years."

"...It hurts my heart!"

******

How about something quick and easy to digest?

Liao Chu put the vegetables he brought back into the freezer, took a look at the short-legged Douding on the table, and decided to make a home-made noodle with fried sauce.

The noodles can be eaten with a spoon, and it doesn't matter if the little guy can't use chopsticks skillfully.

Well, stir fry a salt and pepper cauliflower, not bad.

Even the same dish tastes different from different cooks.

"Appropriate amount", "appropriate" and "approximately" are the biggest characteristics of Chinese food.

Liao Chu kneaded the dough first, covered it with plastic wrap to wake it up, and then went to process the ingredients.

One of the souls of zhajiang is the fat of pork belly, so the raw material can be six parts fat and four parts lean.

Cut the meat into small cubes and stir-fry over low heat to release the fat. The original white fat part is also dyed with beautiful golden edges, and the slightly amber skin explodes into oily flowers in the fat. Every time a flower blooms, The fragrance in the air is richer.

Stir-fried pork cubes in this way will have a little bit of burnt fragrance and crispy, even people who don’t like fatty meat will love it, and it’s very good with rice.

Dice the washed carrots and shiitake mushrooms and stir-fry quickly. The color is particularly bright after being stained with oil.

Liao Chu took out a clay pot, carefully dug a large spoon out of it, and when he lowered his head, he saw a little girl running over at some point, and she was looking at the stove with her feet on her feet.

"It's not fun to splash hot oil on your face," Liao Chu reminded.

Guoguo stepped back obediently, swallowed her saliva and asked, "What is this?"

It smells so good!

"Soybean paste." Liao Chu added soybean paste and some sweet noodle sauce, so that the combined taste would be more layered.

He likes to think about things. For example, these two kinds of sauces are dried by himself, and the authentic Northeast soybeans are specially selected. The finished products are far more mellow than the common ones on the market.

The big soybeans are soft, glutinous and sweet, and they are also delicious when dipped in vegetables.

When the sauce was almost boiled, the water on the other stove also boiled.

There is also a small bowl of water on the upper layer of the water pot, and a soft-boiled egg is just cooked in a few minutes.

Liao Chu first turned off the heat in the sauce pot for standby, took out the soft-boiled eggs and let them cool down, then picked up the dough that was initially fermented, and picked it up quickly.

To be honest, pulling dough pieces is really not an elegant sport, but his movements are smooth and light, and the flying dough pieces draw a beautiful parabola in the air, just like flying white butterflies, unexpectedly brewing a special sense of beauty .

Guoguo is still young, so she can't think of any words of praise, but she still instinctively thinks she looks good.

Uncle is amazing!

The noodles floated up quickly, and Liao Chu fished them out with a catch fence and quickly passed them through the cold water.

In this way, it will not burn the mouth, but also maintain the strength, and the heat inside the noodles will slowly leak out, which is most suitable for eating in summer.

He scooped up half a bowl of noodles, poured two spoonfuls of fried sauce into it, and placed two small green cabbages along the side of the bowl, with half a soft-boiled egg circled inside.

After thinking about it, I washed another cucumber, cut it into filaments and piled it into a sharp point:

In the hot summer, eating meat sauce alone may be a bit greasy. It is best to use shredded cucumber to clear your mouth.

The moment it was placed in front of Guoguo, Liao Chu clearly heard the prompt:

"Satisfaction value 10".

Liao Chu was stunned for a moment:

I haven't eaten yet!
