The sesame naan pancakes were well received by diners, and all of the fifty or so people who came out at noon were completely wiped out. As a last resort, Xiaoxi started to fight in the back kitchen again...
The proprietress grabbed a handful of melon seeds and stood at the door. While eating, she looked at the unusually gray sky and murmured to herself: "It seems like it's going to snow." Then she raised her voice and shouted toward the inside, "Xiaoxi,...
Make more and send some to the neighbors later.”
"I know." A dull reply came from the kitchen.
In this location, the old hotel has witnessed the development of major buildings around it. For example, the No. 1 Middle School in the county next to it was originally a few simple rammed earth houses. As more and more people pay attention to remote places
Due to raising funds and donating money, more and more teaching buildings were built in No. 1 Middle School, and now it is the best middle school in the county.
And the teachers at the school... Thinking of this, the landlady showed a hint of admiration in her eyes. Many of the teachers standing at the school gate not far away are her regular customers, and some of them decided to come here from developed cities to teach.
.Unexpectedly, once I started working, I couldn’t bear to go back, and over time I settled here.
There is also a museum next door. The proprietress went there once or twice when she was a child. It was dark and dirty, and the unearthed things were so ordinary that it was almost out of business. In the past few years, the county seat
A group of Tang Dynasty tombs were suddenly discovered in the west, which immediately attracted archaeologists from all over the place. People's attention then turned to the appreciation of cultural relics. The museum received special funding from superiors, and completely changed its appearance, with a steady stream of
Archaeological relics have appeared in it, and now it has become a place for family outings and children to gather.
The landlady has a close relationship with the old director of the museum, but the old director retired and returned to his hometown last year. After leaving, I don’t know when we will see each other again.
Thinking of her old friend for a moment, the landlady's mood also dropped.
"Uh..." At some point, Xiaoxi quietly appeared behind her, hesitating as she didn't know how to speak.
The landlady steeled herself, tilted her head and glanced at her: "What are you doing?"
Xiaoxi took a serious look at her, and a trace of doubt flashed through the moist eyes behind the mask: "Are you... unhappy?"
The landlady shook her hair and waved her hand: "No, I just feel that time flies by so fast, and it's going to snow again in a blink of an eye." Looking at her appearance, she probably had something to ask of herself, so she said with a smile,
"If you have something to say, just say it!"
Xiaoxi: "I want to... buy a fish..." Although he was deceived by two little liars, Xiaoxi still felt sorry for Xiaoju. The stray cat had a hard time surviving on his own, and he had to nurse his children. Xiaoju's naked eyes
It was obvious that she had lost a lot of weight, and the way she wolfed down cat food yesterday made her feel distressed.
"What are you buying fish for? We don't like to eat fish here."
Xiaoxi replied nonchalantly: "Xiaoju... needs to be fed." This fish soup is made for cats... which is quite surprising to say.
The landlady stared at her dumbfounded for a long time. Xiaoxi's face turned red little by little. If it weren't for the mask that made it difficult to see clearly, the landlady would have laughed at her again.
"Hahaha," the landlady held her stomach and laughed for a long time, then waved her hand, "Go ahead, go ahead. I just said you are a kind-hearted little girl -"
…
There were not many stalls selling fish in the market, but Xiaoxi knew of one. The owner had set up a small fishery, and the fish was very fresh.
"Boss, I want two crucian carp." Xiaoxi said, pointing to the fish jumping happily in the basin.
"Okay! Little girl, I'm not bragging. As long as you eat my fish once, you will never forget it!" The boss fished it out with a fishing net quickly, weighed it, slaughtered it and handed it to her. "Take it."
Come on, come back next time!"
"Thank you boss, I wish you a prosperous business!" Xiaoxi took the red plastic bag and said something auspicious, which made the boss couldn't help but praise her as a good child.
Xiaoxi was still thinking about the naan cakes in the stove, so she turned around and left without stopping. At the door of the fish shop, a figure passed her by.
Yu Yinyin paused and turned her head in confusion. She always felt that the girl who passed by her just now had an inexplicable sense of familiarity.
"Director Yu, why is it you?" The owner of the fish shop poked his head out and hurriedly welcomed him out with surprise, "Didn't you say you would retire and go back to your hometown?"
Yu Yinyin smiled: "What? You don't welcome me?"
"It's impossible - you are the biggest customer in my store! How can any business push big customers away!" The boss welcomed her into the store and pointed at the fish tanks proudly, "I have the biggest fish here in the county.
It’s a store.”
Yu Yinyin looked at him trying to laugh or not, then thought of the figure just now and asked: "The little girl who bought the fish just now is also a regular customer?"
The boss recalled it for a while and then said: "I'm not familiar with it. I've been here twice. He seems to be the new chef from the restaurant near the museum. As you know, there are very few restaurants here that serve fish dishes."
Yu Yinyin said "Yeah", her eyes deepened a bit.
If she guessed correctly, the figure just now should be Yu Jian, who turned everyone in the capital upside down. They have been looking for her for so long, but they just didn't expect her to come here...
"By the way, Director Yu, are you here this time..." the boss looked at her face and asked.
Yu Yinyin looked at him angrily, "I've been re-employed! In the future, you will have many opportunities to meet me - by the way, it's going to snow today, hurry up and pick out some fresh fish
Send it to the museum cafeteria, maybe we will celebrate the Snow Festival in two days!"
"Hey!" The boss's eyes lit up, and he was a little more attentive to her. Since Director Yu became the director of the museum, he has personally experienced everything in the museum. Seeing that everyone is not eating well, he is even more self-conscious.
She uses her own money to buy from the market. The boss admires her and always gets more fish.
"Transfer money to you?" Yu Yinyin took out her mobile phone. The old lady kept up with the trends of the times and used modern tools quite well.
"Sure, you can figure it out!" The boss's smile became even bigger.
When Yu Yinyin came out of the market, the sky was a bit gray again, very dry, and there was a hint of coolness all over her body. She sighed, but a smile appeared on her face: "There is no way out after mountains and rivers, and there is a bright willow and a bright flower.
Village!”
Xiao Xi in the hotel was fascinated by the steaming fish soup in the pot.
"These two guys are much heavier than before!" the proprietress shouted as she came in from outside, carrying a huge cardboard box in her hand. Xiaoxi quickly turned off the fire and came out from the back.
"Uh-huh-huh..." The sound of scratching paws came from the box, with a hint of reluctance in the tone.
"Xiao Hei, Xiao Ju!" Xiao Xi comforted her, and sure enough, she heard her voice, and the two in the box became quiet instantly. After the box was placed on the ground for a while, a big black head poked its head out from inside.
Xiao Hei and his wife and children were sleeping soundly in the owner's house where they just had sex yesterday. Who knew that a female bully suddenly came out and grabbed them tightly at the carton after saying something against them? Before they could recover, they heard
The sound of the door closing.
My life is over. Xiao Hei sighed and silently mourned his cat's birth.
Unexpectedly, only a few minutes later, he heard the heavenly voice again, and when he saw the face of his new owner, Xiao Hei was so excited that he whined and rushed to stick it.
"No -" Xiaoxi stopped it sternly, "Follow the boss lady and I will bring you fish soup."
