Xue Yuantong was like a robot receiving instructions. He kicked his legs and immediately lay down on the desk.
"Jiang Ning, you know."
She said shamelessly that although the two of them had a small conflict in the morning, the conflict between them never involved eating.
Conflicts are conflicts, and eating is another matter.
Xue Yuantong would still cook vegetables for Jiang Ning, and of course, Jiang Ning had to buy dinner for her outside the school.
"I brought whatever I wanted for you today," Jiang Ning said.
"Ang, I believe in your taste." Xue Yuantong held her cell phone and buried her head on the desk. She placed the cell phone outside the desk hole and rested her forehead on her arm while playing with the cell phone, feeling a secret sense of security.
"Pay attention to your eyes, be careful of myopia." Jiang Ning reminded that he had not yet started research on elixirs related to vision.
"Don't worry, my eyesight is very good and our genes are very strong."
Xue Yuantong waved his little hand nonchalantly, signaling Jiang Ning to leave quickly and not to disturb her playing with her mobile phone.
Jiang Ning saw Xue Yuantong starting the game "Happy Landlords" and preparing to kill everyone.
She has quite a lot of happy beans, a long string.
Xue Yuantong held the mobile phone very close to his eyes, only a slap away, and ignored Jiang Ning's previous instructions.
Jiang Ning thought for a moment and felt that Xue Yuantong was getting more and more arrogant and was deliberately teasing her.
His fingertips touched the table, and a trace of the power of thunder and lightning leaked out, bouncing along the table to Xue Yuantong's arm.
"Bah!" the white electric light flashed.
Xue Yuantong was like a little rabbit, shaking all over and his pigtails jumping up.
Xue Yuantong folded his arms and shouted in panic: "Jiang Ning Jiang Ning, I got an electric shock, please protect me!"
She crossed her arms, shocked and angry.
Jiang Ning sneered in her heart: 'I am the assassin.'
In fact, Jiang Ning knew better than she did that the electric current he applied just now was very small and would only numb her a little.
In order to warn Xue Yuantong, Jiang Ning said nonsense seriously:
"It's normal. When a smartphone is running normally, there will be electric current. When a cotton-padded jacket is rubbed in winter, static electricity will be generated. The superimposed effect of the two types of electricity is not just one plus one, but a terrifying one multiplied by one!
"
"If you put your face too close to your arm, you'll get shocked."
"Can you understand what I want to express?" Jiang Ning asked her.
Xue Yuantong didn't believe it at all. She said firmly: "You must be lying to me."
Jiang Ning said: "If you don't believe me, why don't you try playing with your phone on your arm?"
He is ready to discharge again.
"Hmph, do you think I don't dare?" Xue Yuantong said, and continued to pick up her phone to play games, but this time, she honestly put her phone away.
Jiang Ning was very satisfied.
He clapped his hands and said to Geng Lu behind him: "Let's go out to eat."
The two made an appointment to go to a newly opened noodle shop outside the school.
"Okay." Geng Lu followed Jiang Ning out of the classroom.
After arriving outside, the field was open. She quickly caught up and lined up with Jiang Ning.
She subconsciously stayed very close to Jiang Ning, unlike ordinary male and female classmates who maintained a safe distance.
It was the time when school was over, and the students on campus were like waves, rolling towards the school gate.
Jiang Ning did not take the main road, but took a detour through the small garden.
When you step on the cobblestone road with the soles of your shoes, you can feel the hard touch of the cobblestones. In the small garden in winter, the green plants are a bit wilted, and next to it stands a solar street light that was newly installed by the school.
Geng Lu walked in the small garden and kept talking. She had a cheerful personality and could always find a topic no matter where she went.
Passing through the small garden, the two of them walked out along the street. The noodle shop was located a little far away from the gate of No. 4 Middle School.
Approaching the intersection, Geng Lu pointed to the shop with the signboard ‘Xinxin Noodle House’ and said to Jiang Ning:
"This store, before school started, I took my junior high school classmates to visit No. 4 Middle School, and we had a meal at his house afterward."
The two of them entered the shop together. The owners of the noodle shop were a couple with simple looks.
At this time, there were already two tables of customers sitting in the store, and the landlady shouted enthusiastically:
"There is a menu above. Take a look at what you want to eat. Our noodles are delicious, and we also have fried skewers. You can choose whatever you want."
It seems that many mom-and-pop shops are like this. The male boss is always silent, and the wife is usually responsible for entertaining the guests.
Geng Lu directly ordered rice: "Two bowls of fried noodles."
"Would you like coriander and green onions?" asked the landlady.
"Anything is fine," Geng Lu said. She had consulted Jiang Ning's opinion and found that there was nothing Jiang Ning was taboo about.
After ordering the noodles, Geng Lu went to the crisper to pick out some fried food. She took a few meat skewers and a few vegetarian chicken skewers. Originally, she wanted to get drinks, but it was cold and the drinks were too cold.
The boss has soup at his house. It will be just right for you to drink later.
The two were sitting here chatting, and Geng Lu said:
"They also have sesame cakes, which are quite crispy. I'm afraid I'll order too much and not be able to finish them. We'll come back next time."
"Speaking of which, if you really want to eat sesame cakes, I know a sesame cake restaurant in Guyang County." She remembered that Jiang Ning's hometown was in Guyang County.
"The special sesame cakes are super delicious. I ate them once when I went to Guyang County last time. I ate five of them at one time, but I forgot what they were called." Geng Lu said regretfully.
"Hugou Shaobing," Jiang Ning added.
"Yes, yes, that's it." Geng Lu nodded as if pecking rice, "I heard that the cake is made of donkey fat."
Jiang Ning said: "In the early years, it was indeed donkey oil. Later, donkey oil was not easy to buy, so lard was used instead."
"Actually, there is not much difference in taste between the two oils. It depends on the level of the boss." "Hugou Shaobing requires skill and is troublesome to make. Let me tell you about one of the steps. Have you seen the Hugou Shaobing stove?"
Jiang Ning looked at Geng Lu.
Geng Lu: "I've seen it before. It looks like a big iron bucket."
She opened her arms slightly to demonstrate, and tugged at the tight cotton-padded jacket on her chest, showing off her advanced body.
Jiang Ning's eyes moved and said: "Other cakes you eat on the market are baked directly in the oven, which is very convenient. Hugou Shaobing requires you to hold the dough, reach into the oven, and then press the dough into
Round cake shape, stuck to the furnace wall."
Halfway through, Jiang Ning looked at Geng Lu. She was very quiet, just listening quietly and not interrupting others.
Jiang Ning continued: "There is a charcoal fire at the bottom of the stove. You can put your hand into the stove where the dough can be cooked. After thinking about it for a moment, you will know how high the temperature is, and because you need to 'press' the dough, your hand must be in the stove."
Leave it in the stove for a while."
Geng Lu thought of that scene and couldn't help asking: "What if I burn my hand?"
Jiang Ning smiled: "If you get burned by the furnace wall, pull your hand out quickly. If you pull it too fast, the dough will be thrown into the sky.
"It's so difficult." Geng Lu blinked. If Jiang Ning hadn't explained it, she wouldn't have been able to imagine that a simple sesame seed cake actually had these steps.
"Yes, so there are relatively few authentic Hugou sesame biscuits now. Once one is really good, several surrounding counties will often come here because of its reputation." Jiang Ning said.
Geng Lu listened quietly to Jiang Ning's talk. She suddenly felt that Jiang Ning knew a lot. A small sesame seed cake could tell so many things. Sometimes she and Jiang Ning talked about other aspects, and Jiang Ning could always tell her.
Something I've never heard of.
"You know a lot, unlike me, who is stupid and doesn't know anything." Geng Lu praised him, but at the same time she felt so ignorant.
Jiang Ning tapped the edge of the table with her chopsticks and said with a smile:
"I just knew it a little earlier than you. Besides, don't you know it now too?"
Geng Lu's heart suddenly felt warm, and her eyes softened.
She opened her mouth to say something, and happened to catch a glimpse of a few familiar figures outside.
"Xia Xia, why don't you come here to eat? I'm tired of beef soup."
The cool girl was the first to enter the noodle shop. She had neat short hair. Different from ordinary short hair, her short hair seemed to have been cut with a knife, giving her a unique handsome charm.
"Ah, are you guys here, Geng Lu?" Yang Sheng greeted.
Bai Yuxia, who followed behind, glanced at the two of them a few more times. She wondered, wasn't Jiang Ning a good friend of Xue Yuantong? Why did she and Geng Lu come out alone?
In high school, if a boy and a girl go out to eat alone, it is easy for people to think that way.
Although she thought this in her heart, Bai Yuxia said nothing more and also said hello to Jiang Ning.
"Boss, I want a serving of three fresh noodles, but don't make it spicy!" Yang Sheng solemnly warned the boss.
Bai Yuxia said: "I want chicken wing noodles, more spicy."
They were followed by twins, two identical girls, which made the landlady stunned for a moment.
Jiang Ning and Geng Lu's noodles and fried skewers were quickly served.
Geng Lu mixed the noodles with chopsticks and tasted them: "It still tastes the same as that day, it's delicious."
"Jiang Ning, please try it quickly."
"Not bad." Jiang Ning said.
Bai Yuxia looked at this scene. She had always been smart. From Geng Lu's attitude, she could tell that Geng Lu treated Jiang Ning more than just a classmate.
The boss quickly made the noodles and served them bowl after bowl.
Halfway through, the boss lady came over and asked, "What do you think of the taste? Is there anything that needs improvement?"
Geng Lu said: "I think it tastes pretty good, delicious."
The landlady asked again: "What about the price? Is it expensive?"
In 2014, in a small city, a bowl of fried noodles cost 10 yuan, which was actually a bit expensive and would discourage some students.
It's just that Geng Lu is a student after all and has a thin skin, so it's hard to raise the issue. She always feels that it would be a bit embarrassing.
So she said: "It's okay."
The landlady agreed: "I think it's appropriate too. Our prices are more expensive than others, but the ingredients I buy are abundant, so it's definitely worth it."
"We used to be a franchise store, but now we have opened our own store, so we are ready to start over."
When the landlady spoke, her face was full of optimism for the future.
Jiang Ning said nothing.
The business of opening a restaurant is often a bit mysterious. Unless your taste is so good that it kills everything in an instant, whether you can win or not depends on luck.
Moreover, opening a restaurant is a test of your mentality.
The proprietress had a few words with Geng Lu at the table, and then went to other customers to ask for their opinions and collect feedback. She was very motivated.
Bai Yuxia's table was also asked by the landlady.
After Jiang Ning finished eating, Geng Lu went over to pay the bill. The two of them ate noodles and fried food, and happened to spend all the 30 yuan Geng Lu earned from drawing pictures online. Compared with ordinary dinners, it was still relatively expensive.
Jiang Ning and Huang Yuzhu went to eat shredded chicken soup together before, and they could eat enough for six yuan each.
The average student may not be willing to come to this noodle shop, and may think that the noodles are not worth the price.
The two of them greeted Bai Yuxia and the others and left first.
Geng Lu was walking on the road when she suddenly remembered something. She apologized:
"Jiang Ning, I have something to do, so I won't accompany you back to campus."
