If you don't see a visitor from another state, I will go to Chang'an Road. Once you come back, you will feel old again.
——"Chang'an Road" Bai Juyi
After all, the West Market has two different looks from Chang'an, one is gorgeous and the other is modern. Standing in the high-rise building in the center, overlooking the busy traffic below, Chang'an City is only the prosperous and prosperous city in the memory, and the life is full of dreams and dreams.
"Huh..." There was an unpleasant sound of eating vegetables and slurping soup in her ears. Yu Jian felt funny in her heart and turned to look at Huang Nuan who was eating with gusto.
"Can't you be more reserved?" Seeing Chen Xinyi chewing her food carefully, every time I see her eating, I find it pleasing to the eye. On the other hand, Huang Nuan and Lin Feng Xu Sheng are like brothers and sisters.
Huang Nuan grinned, with coriander leaves that he had not swallowed stuck to his teeth. "You and I grew up together, and we have been friends since we were naked. Why should I pretend to be in front of you?"
Chen Xinyi smiled calmly, tapped her packing box with chopsticks, and a cold light flashed in her eyes: "Explain what the word 'pretend' means."
"No, no, no - I'm not talking about you, oh, that's just how I am. I can't help but eat something delicious!" Huang Nuan immediately surrendered. When he was sick, he thought his pigtails were quite weak. Why is he like this?
Just in time, she returned to her true nature, how annoying! She pouted, leaned on Chen Xinyi's shoulder fawningly, fluttered her eyelashes, and pretended to be cute.
Chen Xinyi pushed her head, but didn't push it, so she let her act like a monster. Seeing Yu Jian standing in front of the window with her arms folded, her eyebrows filled with sadness, she asked: "Jian, what's wrong?"
"It's nothing." Yu Jian shook his head, glanced at the scenery outside the window, and smiled, "I just think the West City is quite cold."
Chen Xinyi agreed: "The day I came, it was still snowing. It's not much warmer here than the capital, and I don't know..." Realizing something, she swallowed the words in her throat, and bowed her head again in silence.
Yu Jian's eyes darkened, she sighed inwardly, and sat next to her, "What are your plans?"
"What are your plans? Go back to the capital and prepare to take the make-up exam!" Chen Xinyi grinned at herself and flicked her nails.
Yu Jian held her hand instead: "You know that's not what I'm talking about."
Chen Xinyi suppressed her smile, her face turned cold, she was disdainful, and her expression was full of teasing. She said word by word: "From now on, I will only have one mother."
Who said that kinship cannot be separated? It is never a matter of ability or inability, but a matter of willingness or unwillingness.
Only Huang Nuan looked at the two of them in confusion, as if he understood, but also seemed not to understand, no matter what, these two people have always been mysterious, not as real as the steamed buns in this bowl.
…
Lin Fengxu arrived on time and drove a semi-old jeep. When he saw Yu Jian coming out of the hotel, he quickly unlocked the door.
"Tsk tsk - little boss, do you think you guys make a lot of money when you open a restaurant?" You stay in this five-star hotel for several days, and that's all wasted RMB!
Guan Shanyue sat in the back and kicked him: "Drive quickly! Those old guys are still waiting!"
It obviously saved her.
However, Yu Jian first smiled at Guan Shanyue, and then explained to Lin Fengxu: "My best friend's father arranged it. If it were me, I would not be willing to stay in such a good hotel."
Lin Fengxu smiled, stepped on the accelerator and drove away.
Xishi has built a replica of Chang'an Avenue in recent years, and some old-name restaurants have responded to the government's call to settle in. Among them, the four time-honored restaurants of Xishi Restaurant, Tongshenglou, Changdefa and Chunfasheng are the most famous.
Yu Jian never expected that the source of the quarrel between a group of old scholars mentioned by Lin Fengxu was actually a dish. Strictly speaking, it was an ancient Tang Dynasty dish - gourd chicken.
When the three of them walked into the venue, the conflict had already reached a fever pitch. They were divided into four factions, each representing different restaurant diners, and each spoke for the restaurant they supported.
Yu Jian stopped at the door and smiled as she listened to the hoarse noise inside.
"I am an authentic Xishi person. After eating gourd chicken for so many years, I still don't know which one is the best? It must be Tongshenglou's!"
"You fart! It belongs to the Western City Hotel. Until now, it is a state-owned hotel, and the chefs are all old-timers."
"Chang Defa! That's Chang Defa! That bite makes me want to die..."
"You are so old, you are so ecstatic! I would say that Chun Fasheng is the really good cook. I heard that my ancestor was the imperial chef..."
You said something to me, and I wanted to compete on the spot. Even the organizer knocked on the microphone to ask for silence, but it was not affected at all.
Guan Shanyue walked around the door with her hands behind her back. She really couldn't listen anymore. She strode forward, pushed away the organizer, took the microphone herself, and yelled: "Shut up!"
Being frightened by him, the old scholars stopped their movements, stopped talking, and looked at him eagerly.
Guan Shanyue pointed at a group of people and was so angry! She finally brought the students she liked, but she showed her this. All of them are now grandparents. Why are they so ignorant at the critical moment?
"Hey! Lao Guan is here!" Someone slapped his head and came to his senses, "He is famous for being picky. Let him choose which one is better!"
At this moment, everyone reacted and crowded with each other and rushed towards Guan Shanyue.
At this juncture, I stumbled and lost my balance, and was sprayed with saliva all over my face...
"Look, it will definitely not be easy for the old man to escape." Lin Fengxu huddled aside to watch the show, with no intention of rescuing Guan Shanyue.
Yu Jian glanced at him, holding her chin and lost in thought. Gourd chicken... there is such a dish in the Tang Dynasty recipe.
Wei Shilang of the Ministry of Rites was born in a bureaucratic family, with the support of his father and brother, and he rose up in the officialdom. He was a well-educated man, well-dressed and well-fed, and he was extravagant and lustful.
The gourd chicken was created by his family's cook. The chicken is made in three steps: boiling, steaming, and frying, which takes a full twelve hours. When it is served, the skin of the chicken is golden and crispy, and it will break when you poke it with chopsticks.
At the same time, I feel that the skin is crispy, the meat is tender, and the flavor is mellow.
At this moment, Guan Shan Yueniu's temper was also aroused. He stamped his foot and climbed onto the table, avoiding the hands extended to him. When he saw Lin Fengxu leading Yu Jian, his eyes flashed.
Bright.
It is true that there is no way out of mountains and rivers, but there is a bright future in another village! He picked up the microphone, pointed at Yu Jian and shouted: "Girl, come here!"
Yu Jian looked around for a long time, confirming that he was calling her, helplessly shrugging her shoulders and walking into the crowd...
I heard Old Man Guan show off proudly and proudly: "I have a ready-made judge here that I can lend to you. This is the closed disciple that I like. He is very capable..."
