Chapter 154: Braised Hoof

Dong Changying staggered on the street. It was almost noon, but the sky was still as dark as evening. Dark clouds covered the sky and sun in the air, heavy rain and howling west wind.

Judging from this situation, the heavy rain this time should be a rare heavy rain in a century, and may even last for ten days and a half months. Fortunately, Luoyun City is also a coastal city, and the underground drainage system is extremely perfect. Otherwise, once the heavy rain hit, the infrastructure of the entire Luoyun City would have to be submerged half.

At this time, Dong Changying was still wearing the straw raincoat he wore when he came out of the Ye family, but now there are wind and rain on the streets. Is this straw raincoat the same? It was only half an hour after Dong Changying came out of Miaoyinfang, and his body had already been poured into a cool heart by the heavy rain. The rain mixed with the blood that overflowed from his mouth and nose, making him look embarrassed.

However, although Dong Changying limped and staggered at this time, she was in a very refreshing mood. She even sang in the rain while walking. Although she sang some folk songs of vulgarity, after he sang intermittently in the rain, he had a different kind of passion.

Turning around and turning into an alley, Dong Changying wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth that had been diluted by the rain, took off the straw raincoat on her body and threw it out, then pushed open the two doors that had been covered and walked in.

Behind the door is a small food hall, with only five or six tables and more than ten benches in addition to the counter. This is a restaurant that has not been registered or registered. It can accommodate at most twenty or thirty people. This food hall is the characteristic of Dongling Road. It is generally a small restaurant that enters neighbors. Each restaurant has its own specialty dishes. The dishes they make are not very delicious, but the taste is authentic enough. They are never registered without registration. It has a taste of wine and not afraid of the deep alley.

As soon as Dong Changying opened the door, some storm blew in through the gaps between the two doors. There were not many diners in the restaurant, and only four or five people occupied two tables. There were no servants to run away, and only the fat shopkeeper behind the counter was taking care of the guests. After feeling the chill that was coming in from the crack of the door, he subconsciously looked up at the door.

Those who eat here are all acquaintances from neighbors. After seeing Dong Changying come in, they greeted him with a smile. Some people also asked about the blood and scars on his body with concern, but they were all over the topic with a smile.

After saying hello to the fat shopkeeper, after ordering a few plates of specialty dishes in the restaurant, he came to the table in the corner to prepare to sit down.

But as soon as he arrived at this table, Dong Changying was stunned.

Gu Changfeng, who was sitting in the corner of the table, looked up at Dong Changying, smiled and raised the wine cup, and said with a smile: "Where is no meeting in life? Brother Dong, I came here to eat some wine today. I didn't expect to meet Brother Dong here. If I don't dislike it, let's play a table?"

"I was quite surprised to meet Mr. Qi here. Although this restaurant has been open for a long time, the Ye family members have almost never come from such places. I didn't expect to meet Mr. Qi here today." Dong Changying's aura was a little weak at this time, but his speech was extremely calm. He lifted his robe opposite Gu Changfeng and sat down with a smile, "Since Mr. Qi doesn't dislike him anymore, how could Dong say that he is good or not? Today, I, Dong, have a high degree of success and have a drink and chat with Mr. Ye's guests."

Gu Changfeng came out to eat wine by himself, and he didn't have a good alcohol tolerance, so he didn't ask for much wine and food, two salted duck eggs, a plate of peanuts and a fat carp. According to the rules of drinking, carp is not suitable for serving, because what you need to eat is refreshing. Although the carp is fat, it is prickly, which makes it very troublesome to eat. However, Gu Changfeng has lived in Zhanying City on the coast for more than two years, and now he is gradually falling in love with the taste of sea fish. It is almost difficult to find fresh sea fish in Luoyun City, so Gu Changfeng didn't force it. When he was greedy, he would use the fat carp to make teeth sacrifice.

In addition to these three dishes, there are also three taels of yellow wine on the table. The yellow wine was brewed by the fat shopkeeper himself. Because he has the old secret recipe passed down in his hand, the yellow wine tastes very authentic after being scalded. In the rainy weather outside, find an inconspicuous table, pick a chopsticks of fresh fish, and take a small sip of yellow wine. Life is really satisfying.

After Dong Changying sat down, he glanced at the dishes on the table, coughed twice, and said with a smile: "Young Master Gu, you didn't know that you were a regular here, I'm a regular here, you are a specialty here... You don't order it!"

Gu Changfeng picked up an unused bowl, chopsticks, wine cup and placed it in front of Dong Changying: "Gu is a newcomer, and I would like to hear about this matter."

"This restaurant is old, and it seems that it has been more than fifty years. The dishes are well cooked and the wine is good, and the reputation is better." Dong Changying nodded with a smile and thanked Gu Changfeng, and then slowly said, "The best specialty dish here is braised hoof trousers. The braised hoof trousers here is not a simple braised hoof trousers. Choose the best raw materials for the boar, simmer with yellow wine, and add fresh lotus seeds to enhance the flavor. The hoof trousers are crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. Take a bite and it will be endless aftertaste. You must taste it later."

At this time, the fat shopkeeper who was smiling had already walked over with half a pound of yellow wine and braised trotters ordered by Dong Changying, put the wine and food on the table, and said with a smile: "Mr. Dong, don't praise me, Lao Li's skills anymore. Lao Li will make this braised trotters. If you praise me again, Lao Li will fly to the end. Today's yellow wine and trotters are here. Do you want to taste it? "

Dong Changying smiled and took it, "I can't believe your old Li's skills. Who else can I trust? Please give me another trouser, cut it and add garlic paste soy sauce paste to send it together. I want to invite me, my little brother, to taste your old Li's specialty dishes. This one... is not enough to eat."

"You hold my skills, so you respect me Lao Li." After putting down the wine and food, the fat shopkeeper wiped his fat hands on his greasy apron, and turned around and left with a smile. "Wait, wait, Lao Li made this hoof trousers in the middle of the night last night, and kept simmering with a crock pot. You can wait for a while, and I will cut it for you and deliver it to you."

The fat shopkeeper turned around and left. Dong Changying and Gu Changfeng filled the wine glasses. After a light knock, they both drank them all in one go.

Dong Changying and Gu Changfeng have not met for a long time. Except for the family dinner hosted by Ye Yuanhai, Dong Changying has never spoken to Gu Changfeng. In other words, before this incident, the two basically had no contact with each other, but then again, the nature of these two people is basically under the throne of others. One is Ye Yuanhai's guest of honor and the other is the son-in-law of the three-household house of the Ye family. Their status is incomparable.

Gu Changfeng knew very well how to communicate with a depressed and unsuccessful person like Dong Changying. When he first started drinking, Gu Changfeng's attitude was very low, but behind this attitude, he was vaguely calm and calm, neither humble nor arrogant. This attitude was the most likely to communicate with a son-in-law like Dong Changying, who was unsuccessful. It would not only make Dong Changying treat him as his own person, but not make these poor scholars have the problem of complimenting high and slashing low.

As a great scholar, Mr. Yang Gong is a master of knowledge in the entire great causal world. His cultural talent and talent gather the strengths of hundreds of schools. The essence of his academic work he has worked hard for decades in the second half of his life is the "Study of Heart" that Gu Changfeng has carried with him. Gu Changfeng was just now in contact with this book "Study of Heart". When he first came into contact, he felt plain and tepid, but after reading it ten times, he smelled thunder from the ground. When he read it through it, he felt terrible and obscure. After reading it thirty times, he felt that every word was gem and he benefited a lot from it.

After three rounds of wine, five flavors of dishes.

After drinking six taels of yellow wine, neither of them was a good person. They were already a little dizzy at this time, but this wine was indeed a catalyst for the relationship between men. The two people who had never spoken before were now armed and called each other brothers.

Gu Changfeng picked up a bit of shredded thighs that were already slightly cold and threw them into his mouth, squinted his eyes and chewed them slowly, and sighed: "Brother Dong, what you said is really right. The braised shreds made here are really... really good, not only good, but it can even be said to be the chef in the entire Luoyun City. Eat a piece of shredded thighs and a sip of rice wine. On such a day, you won't change it to the emperor."

At this time, a hint of redness appeared on Dong Changying's pale cheeks, and the wine was gradually rising. He leaned against Gu Changfeng, and smiled with a little drunken smile: "Haha, Brother Gu, what you said... is really right. I have eaten the braised hoof trousers here for a hundred times, but I can't eat enough and I'm not tired of it. But then again... Although this hoof trousers are delicious, they also depend on different personal preferences. Some people just don't like to eat these things. No matter how delicious the hoof trousers are, they don't like to eat them. So, this... Birds of a birds gather together. If you want to eat wine together, you have to taste the same."

Gu Changfeng pursed his lips, "Haha, Brother Dong is really right. We taste the same, so we can sit together and have a drink. I didn't know if we didn't eat alcohol before, but it turns out that we... are so similar people."

Dong Changying picked up the remaining half glass of rice wine from the wine cup and drank it all, leaned on Gu Changfeng's shoulder, and said drunkenly: "Yes... I didn't even see it myself. It turns out that in this huge Ye Mansion, there are people who can talk to me, Dong Changying, and look at the person you like, Gu, we are really destined to be together. In the future, we have to... we often come out to have wine and share our hearts."

Gu Changfeng smiled like a flower: "Yes! Yes! I feel... extremely comfortable when I have a drink with Brother Dong."
