"Hey, why are you here?" Gao Shaoyu responded and quickly got out of the car and found that he had arrived at the big night market on the outskirts of the city. It was a sight to see in Dongyang at night, but it was a bit chaotic.
"Didn't you treat me to dinner? We ate here." Lan Xiaoran pointed to the snacks on the street in front and said with excitement on his face.
"Lan Xiaoran, this is not very good. How can I treat you to a night market? It's better to find a higher-end restaurant." Gao Shaoyu shook his head and directly pulled Lan Xiaoran to leave here.
"No, I haven't eaten here yet, and I just want to eat here. You said you wanted to treat me to dinner, so you won't keep your promise, right?" Lan Xiaoran said with an unhappy look on his face.
"Do you really want to eat here?" Gao Shaoyu scratched his head. "Don't worry, I have money, and one meal is still enough."
"Let's go, my belly is almost starving, I have to eat here." Lan Xiaoran touched his belly and said pitifully.
Gao Shaoyu also glanced at the flat abdomen, looked at Lan Xiaoran's face suddenly turned red, and quickly turned his head to look elsewhere, but he felt moved in his heart. Lan Xiaoran was afraid that he would spend too much money.
Forget it, just eat here and treat her to a nice meal later when I have the opportunity.
"Let's go." Lan Xiaoran had already pulled Gao Shaoyu and ran into the snack street. Looking at the dazzling array of stalls and the various delicious aromas floating around, she was already greedy.
Gao Shaoyu also began to introduce them, including Anhui's Bai Ji Steamed Bun, Taipei's Mandarin Duck Hot Pot, Wuxi's meat bones, Kaohsiung's oyster omelet, Hong Kong's barbecued meat, Harbin's Demoli Stewed Live Fish, Dalian's Salted Fish Pancakes,
Guangzhou’s Laohuo Soup, Yanji’s Dog Meat Hot Pot, Hohhot’s Mongolian Barbecue, etc. make people drool just looking at them and wish they could eat them all.
But just halfway through, Lan Xiaoran felt a little full, but she still endured and continued eating.
"By the way, why did you suddenly go home yesterday? It couldn't be because of me, right?" Gao Shaoyu suddenly asked.
"It's not because of you, but it has something to do with you." Lan Xiaoran rolled his eyes, his face suddenly turned red, and he glared at him.
"Then what happened?" Gao Shaoyu was even more confused.
Lan Xiaoran suddenly pointed at a couple of men and women walking over with the golden things. Their good-looking appearance immediately attracted her, and she couldn't help but hurried over, but she squeezed to the front.
Gao Shaoyu had no choice but to follow.
"What is this? Why are there so many people?" Lan Xiaoran asked anxiously and puzzled.
"Oh, this is Meizhou's Hakka Yong Tofu." Gao Shaoyu only took one look and said with a smile.
"Is this tofu? Isn't it white? They look so strange and cute, like matchboxes." Lan Xiaoran wondered.
"This is water tofu. It is processed into the size of a matchbox. Once it is fried in oil, it will naturally turn golden brown. But everyone can do this, and there is a secret in it. They will make it with some fine pork and fish.
The stuffing is "stuffed" according to special seasonings, then chopped green onion and sesame oil are added, then simmered in a clay pot with chicken soup until the aroma overflows." Gao Shaoyu explained with a smile.
"How do you know?" Lan Xiaoran asked puzzled.
"I often eat, and I have eaten most of the snacks here." Gao Shaoyu was stunned for a moment and finally said with a smile: "You rich people all go to big hotels, but we can only go to street stalls and night markets."
"The ones made here are not as delicious as in big hotels." Lan Xiaoran wrinkled her cute little nose, pointed to the Meizhou Hakka Yong Tofu in front of where many people were gathered, and said with a hopeful look on her face: "I want to try it too, you
Buy it for me, and I'll tell you why I left yesterday."
"Okay, just wait, I'll buy it for you." Gao Shaoyu smiled and walked over, but he went directly to the back where the tofu was made, and murmured a few words to a young man guarding the stall.
Two boxes of steaming tofu were brought over.
"Ah, how come you got it without queuing up?" Lan Xiaoran said in surprise.
"This stall is opened by my classmate's parents, so naturally I don't have to queue." Gao Shaoyu said with a smile.
"You're cheating." Lan Xiaoran said dissatisfied.
"But you took the initiative to bet for me, and I didn't cheat." Gao Shaoyu laughed.
"Okay, let me tell you, my mother missed me yesterday." Lan Xiaoran said with a smile and a wink.
"Um, that's the reason?" Gao Shaoyu was startled and said with disbelief on his face.
"Originally I didn't go to grandpa's house in the afternoon. I wasn't worried about your exam situation, so I was just waiting for you to have dinner with me. Fortunately, you not only came back late, but also beat me up. Of course I left angrily.
." When Lan Xiaoran said this, he pinched his arm angrily.
"It hurts, it hurts." Gao Shaoyu shouted in unison, but he was deeply moved that Lan Xiaoran did not go home to be with his parents for his own sake.
"Tch, I didn't even try hard." Lan Xiaoran snorted.
"Eat it quickly, it won't taste good when it's cold." Gao Shaoyu urged with a smile.
"Shaoyu, my mother asked me to give this to you." After a while, a young man wearing a white kitchen uniform came over and handed over a box of old soup ingredients with a happy face.
"Wow, this is good. Most people don't give this old soup stock." Gao Shaoyu said with a happy face.
"Shaoyu, your girlfriend is so beautiful, even more beautiful than the school belle of our school back then." The young man smiled naively. He was a bit fat and shy, but he looked a little dazed when he looked at Lan Xiaoran.
.
"Because she is also the school beauty." Gao Shaoyu wanted to say that she was not his girlfriend, but suddenly he noticed Lan Xiaoran's threatening eyes, so he swallowed it immediately and responded vaguely.
"Then you play, I won't disturb you." The young man smiled and waved his hand and left.
"Fat man, don't leave, I'll give you some money." Gao Shaoyu quickly took out a fifty and stuffed it into the young man's hand, but the young man didn't want it and ran away in a hurry.
"This guy is still as poor and generous as before." Gao Shaoyu cursed with a smile, but there was still a sense of brotherhood in his eyes.
"The best thing you can do to repay your classmate is to finish the meal he invited you." Lan Xiaoran said with a smile.
"Let's go, find a place to sit down and eat. This old soup is very good. They usually don't sell it for money. It's best for eating Hakka Yong Tofu." Gao Shaoyu led Lan Xiaoran towards the middle of the street.
Just around the corner, there was a small river. There were many couples sitting next to it, eating snacks and chatting affectionately. It was very pleasant.
"You're so bad." Lan Xiaoran rolled his eyes. Although he was still young, his youthful charm still made people startled. With his charming appearance and fair and lovely face, Gao Shaoyu was a little stunned.
Already.
"Then... how about changing to another place? I know a place that's quite good." Gao Shaoyu touched his nose and said sheepishly.
