Beef vermicelli stew
"Baby, you didn't buy anything, you were busy shopping with me and helping me carry things. Are you hungry? Are you tired?"
The two came out of a nearby grocery store again, and Mianmian asked the niece Luo Baobao next to her very embarrassedly.
Baby Luo has a bigger appetite than Mianmian, her aunt, and is stronger and a little taller than her. 70% of what Mianmian bought was grabbed by Baby Luo.
Mianmian tried to grab some several times along the way, but she couldn't grab the baby.
"Aunt Mianmian, I'm not tired at all, but I'm really hungry."
Mianmian smiled softly, "Then shall we go back to your Aunt Ju'er's house for lunch, or shall we eat outside and then go back?"
Luo Baobao hesitated and his nose suddenly moved.
"Aunt Mianmian, do you smell anything? Fragrant and spicy?"
Mianmian also smelled it carefully, "I smell the smell of coriander..."
"It floated out over there!" Luo Baobao suddenly shouted excitedly, "There is a duck blood vermicelli shop over there, let's go and eat it?"
"Okay, we have agreed in advance, Aunt Mianmian will treat you."
"Aunt Mianmian, I have a big appetite. One bowl may not be enough. If you want to treat us, you have to think carefully." Luo Baobao joked with a smile.
Mianmian pretended to give Luo Baobao a look, "Don't worry, I have enough money to take care of you."
Soon, the two found the duck blood vermicelli store. The store was not very big, and the owners were a middle-aged couple. The man was tall and thin, and looked simple and honest.
The woman is petite, probably half a head shorter than Xiu Xiu. She wears an apron around her waist and smiles when she sees people. She is serving tea and cleaning tables, and is very enthusiastic.
"You two girls are sitting here. The tables and chairs have been freshly cleaned."
"Yeah, I bought so many things, come on, come on, I'll get you two more stools to put your things on..."
"Thank you so much, boss lady." Mianmian bowed and thanked her softly.
Luo Baobao looked at the small shop with his big eyes open, then turned his attention to the price list hanging on the wall.
The so-called price list was written with a calligraphy pen on a large wooden board, surrounded by vermicelli, with all kinds of meat, vegetarian, spicy and delicacies, which made Baby Luo's stomach growl.
"Baby, you can call me whatever you want, I'll take care of it."
With a smile in her eyes, Mianmian spoke to Baby Luo softly.
The corners of Luo Baobao's lips raised, "Aunt Mianmian, I would like a bowl of beef vermicelli stew, with more coriander and spicy pepper."
"Is one bowl not enough? Order more." Mianmian said.
Luo Baobao glanced at the menu, "Then let's have two more tiger eggs, a plate of spicy snails, and a plate of sugared peanuts."
After Luo Baobao finished ordering, he asked Mianmian to order. Mianmian had a small appetite and asked for a bowl of three-fresh vermicelli.
The boss and his wife worked quickly, and soon the hot and fragrant vermicelli pot was brought to the table: "You two girls, please use it slowly."
"Thank you."
Mianmian thanked her, raised her chopsticks, scalded them with the hot tea in front of her, and handed them to Luo Baobao opposite: "Use these pairs."
"Um!"
The two of them ate face to face. Although Luo Baobao is usually carefree and like a tomboy, his dining table culture has been taught by Yang Ruoqing since he was a child.
She hardly talks when eating, she is gentle and quiet, like a real girl.
As for Mianmian, let alone that. Even the chewing and swallowing are very gentle, and she really lives up to her name - "Mianmian, soft, moist."
When the two of them came in, there were not many people in the shop. After serving them food, the proprietress sat on a stool near the door, peeling peanut shells while soliciting customers who passed by the door, and took the time to chat with the two of them.
"You two girls, it sounds like your accents are from the Changping Village area, right?"
Mianmian was stunned for a moment, then turned to the landlady politely and smiled, "Yeah."
"Mrs. Boss, does your accent sound like someone from Qingshui Town? How did you know that we are from Mianniu Mountain?" Luo Baobao raised his head and asked curiously.
The landlady smiled and said, "You have really sharp ears. My family and I are from Fenglin Town. I have a sister who lives over there in Mianniu Mountain. My nieces and nephews speak with similar accents to you."
"Oh? There are several villages over Mianniu Mountain. Which village did your sister marry in? Maybe we will recognize it if you tell me!" Luo Baobao asked again with a smile.
Mianmian turned her back to the proprietress, secretly winked at Luo Baobao, and tried to talk to others as little as possible outside, as there were all kinds of people.
In particular, you should not reveal your identity easily to avoid giving others a chance to take advantage of you.
But Luo Baobao quietly gave Mianmian a reassuring look.
She is talented and bold, and she has some finesse even though she is rough!
The landlady is a chatterbox and likes to chat with these young girls.
"My sister got married in a village called Lijiacun at the foot of Mianniu Mountain. I heard that the village is quite big among the ten miles and eight villages. Do you know?"
Luo Baobao smiled, "Lijia Village? It's not far from our village. It's just a few fields."
"Oh?" The landlady's eyes brightened a little, and she glanced around Luo Baobao and Mianmian, "Then which village are you from?"
Mianmian felt nervous and a little embarrassed, so much so that her back became a little stiff.
Luo Baobao took a sip of beef soup and said with a smile: "We are from Yujiacun."
If it weren't for the fact that another customer came in from outside and the landlady put down the peanuts and stood up to say hello, I'm afraid this topic would have to be discussed further.
"Please come in, guest officer!"
"My lord, what do you want to eat?... What? Is this beef from the right place? Oh my lord, you asked, the beef in our store is all prepared by the Yamen. It is the meat of good beef. It's old.
Don’t worry, sir, if the cow can’t work, it’s definitely not a sick cow. The town’s security chief has even come to our house to eat beef vermicelli pot…”
Luo Baobao originally wanted to finish the beef soup in the bowl, because more and more people came in the store. There were two rough guys at a table with sly eyebrows, sitting there and looking straight at Mianmian.
.
Although Baby Luo is a little taller than Mianmian, he is still young after all. Apart from his size, he has no obvious developmental characteristics in other aspects, and his childish look has not faded from his face.
On the other hand, Mianmian is different.
At the age of sixteen, she bloomed like a flower. She inherited Bao Suyun's softness and charm, and was almost as equal as the current village beauty of Changping Village.
The third girl trained very well in such a family environment and gained a bit of heroism in her body.
Mianmian has always been protected by Yang Huazhou and Bao Suyun. She is like a flower in the greenhouse, pure and flawless, delicate and kind. When most men see her, they have an inexplicable urge to either pity her or bully her.
So after the two strange men sat down at the table next to them, they never took their eyes away from Mianmian.
