623. The tree wants to be quiet but the wind doesnt stop

Li Xiao gave this store a shot.

Not far from a noodle shop in Nanzhao, a big signboard appeared in front of you.

“Beard Snacks.”

There is even a picture of a bearded man under the sign.

Li Xiao gave him a shot.

"Big Beard Snack Bar? Does this shop owner have a big beard?"

"Thinking about it this way, what should I do if I actually think it's a little cute?"

"The person in this profile picture should be the store owner, right?"

"He really has a big beard."

"Wait, where's his hair?"

"Um... maybe it's the wrong shape?"

"You're going to laugh me to death from the front."

"This round head reminds me of Lao Ganma."

The Big Beard Snack Shop is less than 50 meters away from Zhu Kee Noodles. During breakfast time every morning, there will be a long queue in front of the door.

The local people's favorite breakfast before going out to work or going to work is "Yisi".

Weishan's raked meat bait silk is a special feature and one of the locals' favorite food.

The method of "raking meat" has been described before, so what is this "bait silk"?

"Bait silk" and "bait cubes" are Yunnan's specialty foods.

Yunnan's bait silk, the more famous ones are Weishan Rake meat bait silk, Tengchong Dajiujia bait silk, and Guojiang bait silk.

Speaking of Guojiang Baisi, we have to mention Yunnan’s Crossing Bridge Rice Noodles.

In Yunnan, "bait blocks" made from rice and cut into thin strips are called "bait silk".

Of course, the taste and texture of bait in various regions are slightly different.

Li Xiao went into the Big Beard Snack Shop and ordered a bowl of rake meat and bait.

This bowl of raked meat and bait is the memory of many Weishan people.

The method of making shredded bait is very simple, especially in such ubiquitous breakfast shops, a bowl of shredded bait can be prepared in just a few minutes.

After the Weishan shredded bait is made, it is in a cooked state. You only need to put it in boiling water and roll it out, then take it out. After the originally cold and hard bait shredded becomes soft, add broth and grill the meat, and it is ready to eat.

.

Similarly, in the breakfast shop in Weishan, there are "kimchi" and "pickled vegetables".

Both of these are available free of charge in the breakfast shop.

You can decide how much seasoning you want, and you can put whatever you want to eat, and you don’t have to worry about the shop owner putting something taboo in the bowl.

Li Xiao sat down in front of the table with a bowl of bait.

The clock-in reminder sounds.

[Ding dong! Check-in is successful, the food store you checked in is: [Big Beard Snacks]]

[Bait silk is made from local high-quality yellow rice and new rice, with a soft and refreshing taste]

[The rake meat is made from high-quality pork hind legs and is stewed for half a day. It has an excellent taste.]

[The soup stock is delicious and nutritious]

"Ding dong! System rating. [Big Beard Snack] has two stars."

"Ding dong! You have won a check-in reward from a two-star gourmet restaurant."

[Ability: Invulnerable]

[Ability introduction: This ability can be used to strengthen the host's body again, so that he will not be afraid of any physical damage from now on! (This is because the host's body enhancement has reached the full level and cannot be further strengthened)]

【Money: 10000】

【Famous: 20】

[Introduction to fame: 1 point of fame will allow 10 strangers to recognize you through different channels]

After all, it’s just a breakfast shop, and it doesn’t even have many products. Li Xiao doesn’t find it strange to get this star rating.

Although there are some other foods in the store, they are all soupy noodles, and Li Xiao has no interest in them.

Besides, I will try other snacks soon.

Although he had just eaten a bowl of noodles, Li Xiao's body has been strengthened and is no longer comparable to ordinary people.

How is it possible to feel full after just one bowl of noodles?

The steaming shredded bait is placed on the table, surrounded by people eating noodles.

There was a middle-aged woman who was eating and crying, not knowing what was going on.

Forget about crying, but there were no tissues at the place where she sat.

As if feeling embarrassed, the middle-aged woman buried her head very low.

Li Xiao hated seeing a woman cry the most, so he picked up the tissue on his desk and walked to the woman opposite.

"Auntie, here are tissues."

The middle-aged woman was stunned for a moment, then quickly took the tissue as if embarrassed, turned her head and wiped away her tears and nose.

The bowl of bait in front of her has reached the bottom, and there is not much soup left in the bowl.

The woman's eyes were red and her eyelashes were filled with tears.

Li Xiao was afraid that she would be embarrassed, so he returned to his seat and began to taste his food.

The bait silk tastes soft and strong, the broth is delicious, and the rake meat is soft and glutinous. It is a very ordinary breakfast.

For Li Xiao, who has eaten countless delicacies, this is nothing more than ordinary.

Since the methods of making bait cubes and raking meat have already been explained, Li Xiao casually commented on the taste of this store this time.

It's also delicious, but not as delicious as Nanzhao Noodles.

Li Xiao lowered his head and ate the shredded bait. After finishing the meal, he took another sip of soup with satisfaction.

In the morning, I have a bowl of hot pasta and a sip of noodle soup. Sure enough, my whole body will be warmed up!

My stomach also feels warm.

The woman wiped away her tears, finished eating the noodles, and sat in the shop for a while.

Seeing that Li Xiao had finished eating her own food, she took the paper towel she had just taken from Li Xiao's table and sat down.

"That... young man, thank you."

The middle-aged woman's eyes were still a little red and swollen. Li Xiao took the tissue and asked with concern, "What happened? You look very sad."

Li Xiao originally thought that this woman had some grievance or something happened at home. She looked a little pitiful, so she wanted to comfort her.

"Sorry, it's nothing serious."

As the woman spoke, her eyes began to turn red again.

"Young man, it seems that you are from out of town. This store has been open for a long time. It has been open since I was a child."

"When it first started, this store opened there."

The woman pointed to the other side of the road, "Going down ahead, it's his previous shop."

"When I was young, my parents were not at home, so I was raised by my grandfather."

"At that time, my grandfather took me to the market and often had lunch in this shop."

"Usually lunch is just a bowl of bait."

“When I was young, my family was poor and it took a long time to eat meat, so I loved going to the market with my grandfather, mainly eating shredded fish.”

"But my grandfather has passed away a long time ago. Now when I come to the market, I will still come to this shop to have a bowl of baitsi. But we used to come together with two people, but now it's just me..."

The former store manager also had a big beard, but now the bearded store manager's beard has changed from black to white now.

This is the memory that many people have from childhood.

But now, the store is here and so is the bearded boss.

The former little girl has grown into a mother of a child.

The granddaughter who was ignorant in the past has now learned to respect the elderly, love the young, and be humble and polite.

However, things have already changed.

The store is there, but the people are already there.

Things change and people change, what a sad idiom.

An ancient saying goes: "The tree wants to be quiet but the wind does not stop; the child wants to be raised but cannot be kissed."

The little girl back then finally had the ability to honor her grandfather.

In the past, even going to the market and buying a piece of pork was a luxury in my family.

In the past, elderly people always liked to put more oil in their meals.

In the past, the old man always wanted to leave the best food to his precious granddaughter. But later, the granddaughter grew up and could afford to buy a lot of meat.

Later, when my granddaughter grew up, the family had a car, and roads were built in the village, so she could go to the town to go to the market anytime and anywhere.

Later, a bowl of bait silk that once required gritting your teeth to eat now only costs eight yuan a bowl.

But grandpa, where are you?

“??o·(????????????)?o·?I miss my grandparents so much.”

"I miss my grandpa so much too."

"When I was little, I was naughty and my grandpa was the only one who protected me."

"When I was young, my grandma always left delicious food for me. She would never part with the pastries and milk for festivals."

"My grandma wrapped the snacks in a handkerchief. When I came home during the New Year, grandma took out a moon cake from the handkerchief."

"But the mooncakes are already hard and broken."

"My grandpa sometimes puts things aside and is reluctant to eat them."

"They don't know when we will go home, so they always want to leave delicious food for us..."

"My parents were not at home when I was young. I grew up with my grandparents. My grandparents sewed clothes for me and cooked for me..."

"But I was too naughty when I was little. I always made my clothes dirty, and I was always picky about eating."

"I haven't seen my grandparents for a long time."

Li Xiao also suddenly remembered something he had heard before.

When a person had a toothache when he was young, his grandfather would take him to eat Mushu pork rice at a certain restaurant.

But then he got a toothache and his grandfather was no longer there.

He had a toothache and couldn't eat, but he was really hungry, so he ordered a takeaway from a certain restaurant, and the dish he ordered was also Mushu Rice Bowl.

I didn’t expect that the food in that family actually tasted like when I was a kid.

His teeth still hurt, but he finished all the food.

"It turns out that in the adult world, you can't even express your thoughts."

On the barrage.

"(っ╥╯﹏╰╥c) I suddenly remembered that I asked my grandpa if he would miss his grandparents."

"Then grandpa told me, think about it, think about it every day."

"But at that time I didn't know what it meant to think about it every day."

"I miss my grandparents so much now."

"Go home and see them often. They are getting old and you may not have much time to spend with them."

"Be more gentle to them. There is a generation gap between the elderly and young people, and they don't understand many things."

"When you don't understand, just teach me patiently."

"When we were young, they taught us how to dress and eat. When they grow old, we can also help them dress and eat."

"They don't know how to use smartphones, but they study for a long time so that they can have topics to talk to you about."

"With a smartphone, you can make calls, start videos, and see what you look like."

"So they started learning..."

"Maybe they don't understand why this small mobile phone can hear the voices and see the faces of their sons and grandsons."

"They haven't seen you for a long, long time."

"They miss you."

"Come home often and visit."

"(?﹏?) As for the previous one, if you can speak, just say more."

"For those of you who are so good at talking, it would be better to write a book."

"Same, I went to the bookstore to buy your book, but they said they didn't have it, so I smashed the bookstore."

"It's true that I haven't been home for a long, long time, and I haven't seen my grandparents for a long, long time..."

"I just called my grandpa."

"I just bought a ticket to go home. I miss my grandparents!"

"I will definitely not work overtime during the Mid-Autumn Festival this year. I will definitely go home and take a look."

Li Xiao looked at the barrage and couldn't help but sigh.

"Go home and visit more often."

The middle-aged woman calmed down and finally left the bearded snack bar.

Everyone has their own things to be busy with and their own lives to live.

However, while you are busy running for life, don’t forget to go home often.



After checking in two shops with local characteristics, the little fan took Li Xiao for a stroll around the area.

Since we are here to play, how can we ask Li Xiaobai to come?

The closest attractions to the two stores are only a few minutes' walk away.

After a while, the little fan took Li Xiao and stood at the entrance of the Confucian Temple.

There is a huge statue of Confucius enshrined in the Confucian Temple. In the side hall, there are also portraits of other Confucius disciples and life stories hung.

The red palace wall surrounds the entire temple, and the plaque on the door simply reads "Confucian Temple".

As soon as you enter the door, there is a wall with the words "Wanren Palace Wall" written on it.

Bypassing this wall, there is also a Zhuangyuan Bridge and a pool inside. The Zhuangyuan Bridge and the edge of the pool, and even outside the main hall where the statue of Confucius is enshrined, are all covered with prayer signs.

Some of these signs are made by parents, praying that their children can be admitted to a good school, and some are made by candidates who are approaching major exams, praying that they can be admitted to a certain school.

Of course, there are also some weird people who hang up wishing signs in Confucius temples to pray for wealth and marriage.

Li Xiao's camera scanned these brands one by one, and when he saw "so-and-so and so-and-so will always be together."

"So-and-so and so-and-so made a fortune."

When the words "So-and-so and so-and-so are going to get married in the future" were posted, the people on the barrage laughed like crazy.

"Confucius: 'Can you clearly see who is worshiping in this temple before you enter?'"

"Confucius: 'Can't your wish come true? If it can't come true, that's right. Your sign is hanging in the wrong place.'"

"Confucius: 'I never thought that after so many years, I would still be stuffed with nonsense by this group of uncultured lovers.'"

"Hahaha, you guys are trying to laugh me to death so you can inherit my forest energy."
