Chapter 403 Night Market
Chen Mufeng stopped what was in his hand and suddenly turned around and smiled slightly at Xiaojing.
He smiled very well, and he could not see any discomfort. It seemed that after these 2 or 3 minutes, he had become Mu Feng who had loved her before. He was really powerful, or his many years of special operations career had allowed him to learn to calm his emotions, leaving the good side to her, and the bad and depressed side to himself.
Seeing the dullness between her expression, he stood up and took a step forward. He stretched out a big slap and pulled her into the door with the back of her head. Xiaojing was very close to him, so close that he could feel his breathing and heartbeat. He looked normal, but this made her feel ashamed and nervous.
"Mu Feng..."
He pressed his fingers on her lips, looking at her deep eyes with her. He sighed slightly and said softly: "I'm sorry, Xiaojing, I've scared you."
"No. It's because I'm not good, I didn't consider your feelings." She apologized sincerely.
He shook his head: "You are very good, Xiaojing, you have done your best. It's me, not ready yet, there are some ideas." He scratched his head and showed a bitter smile: "It's time to change."
He held up her face, and his bright and charming eyes were locked in his eyes like black grapes soaked in water. "I am a man, I want to give you a warm home with my ability. It may not be spacious, nor luxurious, but it is a gift I want to give you, a harbor for us to rest in the future. Xiaojing, you believe I can do it."
She was deeply moved: "Well, I believe in you." She wrapped her waist tightly around him.
The two of them snuggled up quietly for a while. Chen Mufeng rubbed her intentions and asked with a smile: "What do you want to eat, my husband will make it for you."
Yao Xiaojing thought about it seriously, raised her face and said, "Don't be bored at home, let's go to the night market in old Beijing."
Mu Feng said okay. After the two got married, they almost never went out to visit Beijing at night except for supermarkets and shopping malls.
"Go to Donghuamen?" The food night market street in Donghuamen is a holy place in the hearts of old Beijingers. It is a snack street that has existed in the 1980s. At that time, it was a good place for everyone to taste Beijing snacks. A few dollars can satisfy people's food. What are the fried stomachs, braised and boiled, fried livers, enemas, and authentic lamb skewers, which can really make people's appetites rise. However, with the development of the times and the improvement of people's living standards, the things here gradually become unrecognizable and the tastes are very different. Old Beijing snacks are getting fewer and fewer in Donghuamen, and more and more unkind things are being misplaced.
"If you don't go to Donghuamen, we will go to Guijie in Dongzhimen." Yao Xiaojing's eyes became bright in an instant.
"Guijie?" Chen Mufeng had heard of it, but never went there. The magazine introduced that Guijie is said to be a "ghost market" from old Beijing. Dongzhimen was mainly selling groceries, vegetables and fruits in the early years. It opened in the middle of the night and dispersed at dawn. The stall owner used kerosene lamps to brighten it, and it looked full of ghosts in the distance. After the market tide began, many restaurants slowly appeared on both sides of the street in Dongzhimen. There were few restaurants here during the day, but at night, there were crowds of people and traffic, and most of the doors were open until three or four in the morning or even all night. Therefore, this place was called "ghost street". Later, because the word "ghost" was indecent, people used the homophone "gui" instead, which was named "guijie".
"Well, where is the authentic Beijing-style delicacies I want to eat?" Yao Xiaojing was familiar with it, and said spicy crayfish, stewed hoofs, and mutton. She especially yearned for Guijie Street on a midsummer night, where it was still crowded even at four o'clock in the morning. At first glance, the street was filled with red signs and lanterns. The dazzling red light, combined with the spicy dish fragrance in the air, can really make people feel more energetic the later they are.
Chen Mufeng looked at her mouth-watering look and said funny: "Only the two of us can eat so much?"
"Yes, we two, even if you give me three servings, we can't finish it." There are fewer people in the night market and there is no mood. Yao Xiaojing also understands this. She racked her brains and thought for a long time, and simply patted her thighs: "I have it... look at me!"
After a call, she actually called two people who were dizzy in the hospital - Kang Wei and Gu Mengmeng.
Kang Wei's body recovered very quickly and was allowed to be discharged from the hospital. When Yao Xiaojing mentioned Guijie, Kang Wei later said that Gu Mengmeng's eyes were green at that time. Because she was shopping at night markets, the "bad things" that their sisters did the most.
Especially when I went to Guijie to "shop night", everyone ate crayfish.
The scene of singing until the early morning was revered by them as the paradise of the world, which was their favorite in life. I remember that in addition to Gu Xiaoxi, there were several other tall and large people in the courtyard, including men and women. A group of people sat around the roadside stalls on midsummer nights, with several large pots of lobsters, hoofs, and boiled fish. Each of them slaps a large Yanjing beer and started chatting with each other. From the great principles of governing the country and pacifying the world to their personal emotional life, they often "fight" until the early morning. Don't worry about safety, because there were military-licensed vehicles waiting to pick them up to be waiting across the street. They drank until four or five in the morning, and were really sleepy. Each person ate a little light bun and tofu brain, and went back to their own cars, and rushed far away. Basically, they completed the task of "sweeping the night" on Guijie Street.
Today, Guijie has also changed its appearance.
In the past, the stalls on the street were replaced with various small shops, and the summer food that I remembered was almost extinct. Only diners who came and went to create a lively atmosphere in the past slightly.
"They are here!" Chen Mufeng had excellent eyesight. In the bustling crowd, he first discovered Kang Wei and Gu Mengmeng who were supporting each other.
When Yao Xiaojing saw Kang Wei wearing a hoodie, she completely lost her former arrogant look and couldn't help but smile at Gu Mengmeng so happily...
Sitting down at a famous restaurant that runs crayfish, Yao Xiaojing ordered a variety of features and suddenly said to the waiter: "Please give that gentleman more empty bowls." She pointed to a hood officer who was drooling as the lobster...
Gu Mengmeng quickly said, "Conway can't eat spicy food!"
Yao Xiaojing said with a smile: "I'm not trying to let him eat meat, I'm giving him a bowl to pick up his saliva!"
“………”
