I became an internet celebrity by running a grocery store
Chapter 022 The Sad Little Barbecue
After Tao Guang came, Zhang Xiaobei closed the canteen for a day and showed him around.It should be said that although the countryside does not have as many modern attractions and entertainment measures as in the city, there are many natural landscapes and fresh air that the city does not have. It can be called a natural oxygen bar.There are also authentic and cheap food in the town, which also made Tao Guang have a good time.
This evening, the two of them took out the small oven that Zhang Xiaobei bought, and set it up in the courtyard to prepare a small barbecue for the whole hour.But only two of them felt that they didn't feel much after eating, so Zhang Xiaobei went to call Liu Bing.When he was still hesitating whether to go to Xia Songfeng, Tao Guang took the initiative to mention it.
"Hey, let's call your new village chief over here."
After Tao Guang heard that Zhang Xiaobei had known him since childhood, he wanted to meet this man.
We knew each other when we were young, and we met again when we grew up. It's a proper idol drama plot.
Calling the village head, Liu Bing naturally has no objection.He looked at Zhang Xiaobei, seeing that he didn't object, he set off to the village branch, and brought Xia Songfeng over after a while.
As soon as Xia Songfeng entered the yard, Shumen Shulu washed his hands, sat down and began to wear meat, and soon chatted with Tao Guang, very enthusiastic.
Liu Bing brought a few pieces of black charcoal and lit the stove.Zhang Xiaobei threaded the pre-marinated chicken wings into iron skewers and put them on the stove, ready to be roasted.
Zhang Xiaobei's marinated grilled wings look very beautiful in color, and they are covered with bright red chili flakes, which whets the appetite.The chicken wings have also been oiled in advance, and when they were placed on the stove, a few drops of oil fell into the fire, and the flames rose suddenly, which changed the color of the cold chicken wings and made the skin firmer.Zhang Xiaobei hastily turned it over, and repeated this about a dozen times before the chicken wings were considered cooked.
Finally, grab some barbecue sauce and sprinkle it evenly on top to add a different flavor to it.
As soon as Zhang Xiaobei's grilled wings were on the table, they were sold out by everyone.
The grilled chicken wings are charred on the outside and tender on the inside, and the marinade is also delicious, until it is crispy to the bone, which makes people want to stop.Especially the barbecue sauce on top is simply the finishing touch.
"Xiaobei, how do you make your barbecue ingredients? It's so delicious." Liu Bing asked him vaguely while eating. It's not an exaggeration to say that he has never eaten such delicious barbecue when he grows up. Woolen cloth.
Zhang Xiaobei smiled, he learned the barbecue ingredients on the Internet, after several experiments, and improved it according to his own taste, he got the current taste.It looks like a simple handful of ingredients, but there are a lot of good things in it.Not to mention all kinds of spices, there are also peach crisps, crushed peanuts, melon seeds, spicy fresh, thirteen spices, etc., all of which waste his old nose money.
"I learned it online. If you think it's delicious, I'll pass it on to you."
Liu Bing laughed loudly after hearing this, "Okay, I'll set up a barbecue stall at the entrance of the village, and drive across from you, and I'll kill you every day."
Zhang Xiaobei couldn't laugh or cry, Tao Guang stood up, grabbed the beef skewers beside him, and was about to show everyone.
"Xiaobei, take a break, I'll bake."
After eating, Liu Bing and Xia Songfeng wiped their hands and stood up to help. These big men really have a lot of appetite, and the speed of grilling the meat skewers is too slow, and they really can't keep up.
Tao Guang kebabs, Zhang Xiaobei took out the dressed vegetables and set them on the side of the stove to let them roast slowly.The vegetables are cooked quickly, and the low heat is just right, so it is not easy to burn.
The two of them occupied the small oven to the brim, and Liu Bing and Xia Songfeng had no place to help.
"Brother Xiaobing, go to the store and get some beer."
After eating for a while, Zhang Xiaobei realized that he didn't have all the drinks ready, no wonder he always felt that something was missing.
"Okay. What do you all drink, some cold beer?"
"Just bring me a bottle of drink." Zhang Xiaobei said.
"Xiaobei never drinks alcohol," Tao Guang explained.
Liu Bing didn't ask any further questions, and agreed, turned around and entered the commissary.
The fire in the oven was getting bigger and bigger, and the thick black smoke was blown by the wind straight to the person's face, Zhang Xiaobei was so choked that he couldn't help coughing.Xia Songfeng picked up the small cardboard on the side, walked up to the two of them, fanned it up and down with one hand, causing the black smoke to move in the same direction, took the skewer in Zhang Xiaobei's hand with the other, and said softly.
"I'm coming, you take a break."
Zhang Xiaobei didn't show any politeness to him, he just threw it to him, and ran to the side to hide.
Tao Guang's roguish eyes flicked between the two of them, and there was a meaningful smile on the corner of his mouth.He first looked at Zhang Xiaobei, then at Xia Songfeng, coughed lightly, and pretended to ask casually: "Well, Village Chief Xia, I heard from Xiaobei that you are quite young."
Xia Songfeng nodded with a smile, glanced at Zhang Xiaobei and said, "Two years older than Xiaobei."
"Two years older," Tao Guang pondered for a while, "Then he's 25, and he's not too young. Have you talked to anyone yet?"
Zhang Xiaobei was still wondering why Tao Guang suddenly asked Xia Songfeng these things, until he heard this sentence, the water he just drank almost spewed out.I just wanted to cover Tao Guang's mouth quickly and let him stop asking, for fear that he would say something like "Do you like men or women" in the next moment.
Although he thought so in his heart, Zhang Xiaobei didn't actually act. He was actually quite curious about whether Xia Songfeng had a relationship, but he never dared to ask, always feeling too strange.In fact, it's not unusual for friends to ask this kind of topic casually, but Zhang Xiaobei has other thoughts, so he can't help being suspicious.
Zhang Xiaobei pricked up his ears, and unconsciously tilted his body in the direction of Xia Songfeng, his nervous little heart was beating wildly, and the hand holding the cup began to sweat slightly.
"No."
"No talk."
Zhang Xiaobei's eyes widened instantly, surprised and puzzled.He looked at Xia Songfeng, looking forward to his next sentence, but he met Tao Guang, whose eyes were shining brightly.Tao Guang had clearly engraved the words "Quick Charge" on his face, Zhang Xiaobei stared at him speechlessly.
"Why...why haven't we talked about it?" Zhang Xiaobei's subordinates pretended to be fiddling with the meat skewers, and heard his own voice trembling slightly.
"Too busy, no time."
Xia Songfeng said lightly, bringing the topic away with a simple sentence.Zhang Xiaobei blinked, feeling a little disappointed that he didn't hear the answer he wanted.
At this time, Liu Bing said again: "Then when will Village Chief Xia plan to look for it?"
Ding.
The alarm bell in Zhang Xiaobei's heart rang, and he pricked up his ears again.
"Well, I don't know. It depends on fate. You can't force this kind of thing. Besides, with my current conditions, I'm not in a hurry, and I can't wrong other girls."
Liu Bing nodded in understanding, shut his mouth and stopped asking.
The movements of Zhang Xiaobei's subordinates gradually slowed down, their minds were full of the girl Xia Songfeng blurted out just now, they felt their hearts were sore and swollen, as if hundreds of iron sticks had been pierced through them, and they couldn't breathe.
He took two deep breaths, and finally his breathing became more unobstructed, and the uncomfortable feeling faded a little.It's just that the hand wearing the stick still trembled uncontrollably, which made him feel powerless.
Tao Guang walked behind him at some point, patted his back, took the meat skewers in his hand and sighed.
How Xiao Bei felt about Xia Songfeng, how could he not be able to see it, so he asked a lot this time, thinking to help his brother, or else with his sullen temper, I don't know how long it will be delayed.But he didn't expect the ending to be like this, and he immediately regretted it. If he had known earlier, he might as well not have said this.
Zhang Xiaobei looked back at him and smiled indifferently.He had already been mentally prepared for this kind of outcome, and thanks to Tao Guang, it was better to know sooner than later, so as to stop the loss in time.
The two skewered the meat in silence, and the barbecue ended with regret.
The next day Zhang Xiaobei's canteen opened normally, Tao Guang got up early and came to the store to help, which made Zhang Xiaobei feel a lot easier.After finishing his work in the morning, Tao Guang moved a recliner and put it under the big sycamore tree at the entrance of the canteen.There is also a small square stool on the side, with various snacks on it, which looks like a holiday.
"Xiao Bei, these days are so leisurely, I don't even want to leave."
The sun shines through the layers of dense leaves on Tao Guang's face, leaving mottled light and shadows on Tao Guang's face. The small wind blows slowly, bringing a scent of unknown wild flowers, as if time has slowed down.
There are no annoying whistles and complicated work, only a few floating invisible white clouds in the blue sky and the working chant brought by the wind, everything is comfortable and drowsy.
"Xiaobei, is my family Lele with you?" Aunt Wang walked towards the canteen wearing an apron. Before the person arrived, the voice came out first.
"Not here, auntie."
Aunt Wang glanced at the canteen, seeing that there was no sign of her own child, she became anxious.
"Hey, I guess I went to the back mountain to play, this kid. Since those vines grew on the back mountain, the children in the village love to run there all day long, and it's not too far away."
Before Zhang Xiaobei could answer, Tao Guang opened his eyes, turned to look at the two of them and asked, "Vine? What vine?"
Only then did Aunt Wang realize that there was an extra person at the door, Zhang Xiaobei hurriedly said, "My friend, come to visit me in the countryside."
When she heard that it was Xiaobei's friend, Aunt Wang smiled warmly, and quickly explained: "On the back mountain, a few thick and long vines suddenly grew up, which is really spectacular."
Tao Guang's eyes lit up, and he stopped sitting on the reclining chair.Immediately ran to Zhang Xiaobei's side, insisting that he take him to have a look.
Zhang Xiaobei couldn't help it, so he asked Aunt Wang to help him look around the shop.
"Go, go, if you see the two of my family, call them back for me. It's time for dinner, and they run away without a trace." Aunt Wang smiled and agreed, and Zhang Xiaobei took Tao Guang back mountain to go.
It rained a few days ago, and the road behind the mountain was a bit muddy and slippery, making it difficult to walk.But looking at the messy footprints on the ground, there are quite a few people running to the back of the mountain these days, even if it rains, it can't resist people's curiosity.
He and Tao Guang arrived there in about 15 minutes. Even if he had seen it once, Zhang Xiaobei would still be amazed by this wonderful sight.I saw that those vines seemed to be more luxuriant than last time, intersecting and hanging down naturally. If there is another swamp, it seems to be back to the primitive century, because only then can we see such a prosperous natural wonder.
Tao Guang, who was on the side, had been staring blankly for a long time, took out his mobile phone and kept taking pictures, and said in a slightly reproachful tone.
"Xiaobei, you have such a beautiful place here, why didn't you bring me here?"
Zhang Xiaobei was speechless for a moment, he was guilty of guilt.
"Didn't I bring you here?" He whispered.
Tao Guang clicked his tongue twice, put down his phone, turned his head and walked back without saying a word.
"No, I have to go back and get my camera. It's too wasteful to take pictures with a mobile phone for such a beautiful scene."
Zhang Xiaobei called Lele and An An, held each hand and followed Tao Guang step by step and asked, "When did you buy the camera, and how did you become obsessed with it?"
Tao Guang looked back at him with a look of disgust, "You don't understand this, I am called the pursuit of art, literary youth."
Zhang Xiaobei groaned, how could he not understand Tao Guang, he probably took it to the auto show to take car models.
This evening, the two of them took out the small oven that Zhang Xiaobei bought, and set it up in the courtyard to prepare a small barbecue for the whole hour.But only two of them felt that they didn't feel much after eating, so Zhang Xiaobei went to call Liu Bing.When he was still hesitating whether to go to Xia Songfeng, Tao Guang took the initiative to mention it.
