()..om "Hee hee" Tong Xiaomeng pulled Huang Jun's arm without any thought and said in a nonchalant manner: "I won't tell you, I'll find out when I get there."
Huang Jun smiled and nodded. Only then did he notice that it was already five or six o'clock and the company was about to get off work.
"Should we call Yihui and the others?" Huang Jun looked at Tong Xiaomeng and asked.
Tong Xiaomeng shook her head and said, "I've already taken them to eat, but you haven't."
"Okay, let's go eat." Huang Jun was a little curious as to what kind of food Tong Xiaomeng was talking about.
After making a phone call to Dragon Slayer, Huang Jun waited at the door of the company and asked insinuatingly: "Xiaomeng, what on earth is this? I have grown up and eaten a lot of delicious food, you can't let me down.
."
Tong Xiaomeng stretched out her hand and gestured, and said: "It's so big, the whole restaurant can only sell one in one night."
Huang Jun looked at Tong Xiaomeng's gesture and was a little confused. What is the thing that is about the same size as a washbasin? Fish? Poultry? Or pumpkin?
It's already the end of August, and pumpkins are almost on the market? They don't seem to be delicacies. As for fish and poultry, it's hard to say, but who has never eaten them? They are just bigger.
Huang Jun couldn't guess it, so he simply asked: "I really can't figure out what it is."
"I can't tell you." Tong Xiaomeng's tone was very strict and she just wouldn't say anything.
Seeing this, Huang Jun stopped asking.
The dragon-slaying army quickly drove over in a car, and Huang Jun and Tong Xiaomeng got in the car immediately.
"Brother Tu, what are you busy with? I haven't seen you." Huang Jun asked.
"I'm sorry, boss." The dragon-slaying army apologized and said, "You came back, but I didn't give you a chance to cleanse yourself from the dust. Didn't I just open a martial arts studio and train two younger brothers?"
"Don't you want to develop armed forces?" Huang Jun said jokingly.
Tu Longjun shook his head and said: "Seeing that our company is getting bigger and bigger, and the security team has not yet been perfected, Yihui found a job like this for me. Two days ago, our front door in the city was broken into and stolen.
I bought two things, and when I think about it, I get angry."
"Oh, there's this other thing?" Huang Jun really hadn't heard of the situation the Dragon Slayer was talking about. He asked curiously: "Did our front door suffer a lot of damage?"
"Not big." Tong Xiaomeng conjured up a pack of melon seeds from nowhere, and said while eating: "The front room has just been renovated, and nothing has been put there yet. A desk and a chair inside were stolen.
I also sprinkled paint on the walls and doorways.”
Listening to this situation, Huang Junxin said speculatively: "This is not an ordinary thief, he is targeting us for sabotage."
"That's what I thought about as well." Dragon Slaying Army took over and said, "So, I'm going to train hard and try to nip it in the bud."
"Thanks for your hard work."
The Dragon Slayer Army sent Huang Jun and Tong Xiaomeng to the intersection of the snack street and drove away in a hurry.
"It's here again, haven't we been here before?" Huang Jun asked in confusion as he looked at the bustling crowd in the snack street.
"Let's go!" Tong Xiaomeng called Huang Jun and squeezed into the crowd.
Tong Xiaomeng pulled Huang Jun to the door of a restaurant and stopped, pointing to the signboard and saying: "This is the place with unique taste, exquisite workmanship, rich nutrition, and it's green and healthy."
Huang Jun looked at the 'fresh bite' sign and asked, "Is this a seafood restaurant or a home-cooked restaurant?"
Tong Xiaomeng kept silent, with a mysterious smile on her face, and walked in first, shouting as she walked: "Aunt Liu, I'm here."
"Little girl, come in quickly."
When Huang Jun followed closely and walked in, a middle-aged woman had already greeted him warmly.
There were a lot of people in the restaurant, and there was almost no room left. Huang Jun took a look at what they were eating, and shook his head with some disappointment. There was also delicious food, wasn't it just corn and peanuts?
"Huh?" Huang Jun finally discovered something different.
On every table, there is a large plate with a large purple disc, which looks a bit like a wooden stake.
Eating wood? Huang Jun walked towards Tong Xiaomeng in the corner in surprise. After sitting down, Huang Jun asked in a low voice: "What is that on each table? It feels like a piece of wood."
"That's taro, which is sweet potato." Tong Xiaomeng finally told the story.
"Taro? A taro with a diameter of twenty or thirty centimeters?" Huang Jun looked at her in surprise, a little confused. Can this thing still be called a taro? It is simply a mature taro. It seems that the taro is either white or white.
The one with yellow flesh, how come the one with purple flesh came out?
"Girl, or a set meal?" Aunt Liu, the landlady, asked.
"Oh, the amount doesn't need to be too big." Tong Xiaomeng reminded.
While Huang Jun was drinking a cup of tea, the landlady came to the table with a tray and put down a few dishes.
Boil peanuts in water? Boil edamame in water? Boil corn in water? And two bowls of corn leaf porridge.
Looking at these four things, Huang Jun scratched his brow again. Good guy, I switched to vegetarian food tonight. It is absolutely green food.
"Brother Huang Jun, try it quickly. It's delicious." Tong Xiaomeng saw Huang Jun staring blankly at the food and hurriedly reminded him.
Huang Jun nodded and reached out to grab a piece of corn cob. This was enough to fill his stomach. As for the remaining two items, eating more would be useless.
"Purple heart benefactor taro, shredded sweet potato, and braised sweet potato are here." Aunt Liu came forward with another plate.
Looking at the three kinds of sweet potatoes on the table, Huang Jun grinned. It's over, we really have a sweet potato feast tonight. But, why do these sweet potatoes grow like this?
Now that the dishes were all served, Huang Jun was not polite, picked up a little purple sweet potato with chopsticks, and gently put it into his mouth.
Before he could taste anything, a chill was already rippling in his mouth. Huang Jun covered his mouth, breathing in the cold air, and looked at Tong Xiaomeng with a grimace.
"Haha" Tong Xiaomeng looked at Huang Jun like that and said with a happy smile: "This is cooked and frozen in the refrigerator. Is it delicious?"
After listening to this explanation, Huang Jun exhaled a breath of cold air and started chewing slowly. As he tasted it, Huang Jun immediately discovered that the taro was quite delicious and sweet, just like eating sugar cane.
"It's delicious." Huang Jun affirmed after tasting it.
However, there is one thing that puzzles Huang Jun. Roasted sweet potatoes are also very delicious, and there is not much difference with this sweet potato.
"Xiaomeng, what do you think is different between this store and the sweet potatoes outside?" Huang Jun asked in confusion.
"It's strange." Tong Xiaomeng gave a simple summary, looked at Huang Jun and said: "Have you ever seen such a big sweet potato? This is the first time I have encountered such a big sweet potato. I have traveled all over the country."
"Just for this?" Tong Xiaomeng's explanation left Huang Jun speechless. Isn't it just a large sweet potato? Is it worth being so serious about it? No matter how big the sweet potato is, it still tastes like sweet potato.
Tong Xiaomeng nodded and said: "The big size is one of the reasons. The color is also special. Purple ones are really rare."
Huang Jun shook his head and said uninterestedly: "I really have no interest in sweet potatoes. Everyone has their own preferences."
Seeing that there was nothing new tonight, Huang Jun had no choice but to bite the bullet and start eating. The peanuts and edamame were very fresh, they must have just been harvested from the fields. The sweet potato was so sweet that it made people worry about diabetes.
The polenta is delicious, and there are actually sweet potatoes in it, which makes Huang Jun smile bitterly. It's really a sweet potato feast tonight.
It took Huang Jun a full hour and a half to finish it. There was no oil or water, and this vegetarian dish was really uninteresting.
When checking out, Huang Jun asked about the origin of this sweet potato: "Aunt Liu, how come this sweet potato has a purple heart and has such a weird name?"
Aunt Liu shook her head and said, "We didn't know either. This is a variety that grows on the mountain. We chose this name ourselves because it saved the lives of my whole family."
"Oh?" This sweet potato actually has such an origin. Huang Jun immediately became interested and asked curiously: "When did this happen? Why is it so magical?"
"During the most difficult years for our country, when our family had no food, we dug three taros from the mountains and sustained ourselves for more than half a year." Aunt Liu said sadly.
"Oh" Huang Jun nodded. Seeing that he mentioned someone's sad story, Huang Jun simply stopped asking.
After walking out of the small restaurant, Huang Jun curled his lips and shook his head. Three sweet potatoes can sustain a family for more than half a year. How big do they have to be?
"Brother Huang Jun?" Tong Xiaomeng touched Huang Jun and said, "Don't you think it tastes good?"
Huang Jun shook his head and said: "It's okay to eat one meal, but you can't digest it if you eat too much. Xiaomeng, how did you discover this wonderful thing?"
"On the forum." Tong Xiaomeng said: "There is a snack forum in Senmu City, which specifically mentioned this store. The sweet potatoes sold by this store are not aimed at young people, but are open to senior adults. It seems that the market
My old father often comes with a smile and leaves with a cry."
"What?"
Huang Jun was shocked that this small restaurant still had such magic power. He looked at Tong Xiaomeng and said, "Why did the mayor's father leave crying?"
