The noodle shop in Brother Nan’s house is very large, and the layout of the house is also very different from that of ordinary noodle shops.

As soon as I entered the door, I was an ordering table and a cashier. Now I paid first and then had a meal. There was also a stainless steel table here, which usually had braised eggs, kimchi, and pot-kit, and fast food was sold at noon.

Walking further inside, there is an aisle, which is a very large dining place.

Next to the aisle is the kitchen.

The kitchen is much larger than that of ordinary noodle restaurants. I remember that when Zhou Li was still in junior high school, Brother Nan sold side dishes, which refers to the kind of dishes that can be eaten with noodles, such as rotten cowpeas, steamed pork, roasted beef, etc. Now Brother Nan’s family also makes fast food for lunch in addition to side dishes, and can also order home-cooked dishes.

Usually when Zhou Li comes to eat noodles, he will get a license plate when ordering a meal, go in and find an empty seat to sit down, put the license plate on the table, and soon a young apprentice will bring the noodles to you.

Although this pattern is common, in Yancheng City, only Brother Nan’s family does this.

Today is destined to be different.

Zhou Li stood at the kitchen door and looked at Brother Nan busy inside, feeling a novel feeling.

"What are you looking at?" Brother Nan took the time to look back at him.

"You can cook noodles."

"It's not difficult, just a seasoning. I'll see it after a few times. The hardest thing is the sauerkra, and it's not easy for an apprentice to learn it." Brother Nan talked to Zhou Li while operating. She tied a bun, "I have to wash the pot when I finish it. Oh, it's annoying..."

"I'll wash it for you."

"sensible!"

Brother Nan quickly took out the noodles.

Two bowls of sauce were filled with a big bowl next to it. One bowl was the mixed sauce used for Zhou Li chopped pepper sauce noodles, and the other bowl was beef.

There are five braised eggs, one for each Zhou Li and Brother Nan.

Brother Nan used a large bowl of noodles for Zhou Li.

I used a bowl for myself.

I used a super big big sea bowl for Huaixu. I usually don’t see such a big bowl at home. Some restaurants use such a large bowl for seasonings or other purposes. If it is converted into a noodle restaurant unit... can it be filled with three or three taels?

One pound?

Zhou Li was amazed at the sight.

Then Brother Nan held a large spoon in his hand and scooped the mixed sauce. One spoon was heavy, spreading the noodles full of them, and said to Zhou Li: "When I put the seasonings, I deliberately put less salt and soy sauce, hehehe..."

She also ate chopped pepper sauce noodles.

Only Huai Xu ate beef alone, so Brother Nan directly picked up the bowl of beef and poured it on the noodles. His simple and direct actions inadvertently evoke Zhou Li's childhood memories, when Mr. Zhou raised a pig.

"Dangdang Dangdang! Brother Nan's customized version!"

"Come on your own!"

Huai Xu was so happy that he squeezed Zhou Li away and rushed forward.

It is a bowl that is not frustrating to wash your face. It may not be possible for ordinary people to take it.

After Huai Xu walked out with a bowl, Zhou Li quickly moved aside, leaned against the wall, and still stared at him intently. Suddenly, he noticed Brother Nan's gaze again. Zhou Li turned his head to look at her, and both of them smiled.

Understand it.

Then Brother Nan glared at him again: "I won't come yet!"

Zhou Li walked in.

One minute later.

"How is it?"

“Slightly harder than usual.”

"Oh!" Brother Nan looked at Zhou Li a little higher, "Can you taste all this? It's OK."

“I like to eat hard ones.”

“The noodles I usually sell are very good.”

"Um."

A big orange with an extra strong body came out from somewhere. It looked at Zhou Li and Huai Xu and walked over. It didn't jump onto the table like a dumpling. It just sat on the ground at the foot of the table, sitting upright, looking at the people on the table.

Brother Nan threw the yolk of the braised egg to it and asked Zhou Li casually: "Where is your dumpling?"

"When she is at home, she is afraid of the cold."

"Do your family like cats?"

"I like it, Aunt Jiang and Xiaoshuang like it very much, especially Xiaoshuang, who like it very much." Zhou Li said, "He was fascinated by Tuanzi after just a long time after I came back."

"What about your dad?"

"He pretended not to like it, but I went out to the bathroom last night and he was watching TV, and the dumpling was huddled in his arms."

"That fairy has a few tricks." Brother Nan nodded.

"Um."

That's not as simple as a few.

After eating the noodles, he cleaned the pot and bowls and hung them. When he went out, he locked the door again. Seeing that the closing notice on the door was blown away by the wind, Brother Nan pressed the corner back and pressed it flat, and then took the initiative to help Zhou Li lift heavier milk.

"Yo, I brought two bottles of wine."

"Aunt Jiang said he wanted to bring it."

"oh!!"

Brother Nan grinned. She remembered the tobacco and alcohol brought by Zhou Li on her birthday last year, and she laughed to death. It was not long after, but when she recalled, she felt that it was already a long time ago.

At this time, Zhou Li said again: "Aunt Jiang probably thought I was going to your house for the New Year."

Brother Nan raised his head and laughed, laughing so stupidly.

There is also an aisle in the yard, which is very narrow, so Zhou Li could not even drive it out, but Brother Nan's skills seemed to be natural. After going out, he passed through a somewhat crowded city area, and the speed increased after crossing the river.

She laughed and got on the highway.

Zhou Li didn't say anything.

After more than an hour, I arrived in Xiaoping Town and a little further ahead was Mingjiu Mountain.

Brother Nan continued to move forward, but suddenly said, "Are these people idle and have nothing to do?"

"What's wrong?" Zhou Li asked.

"nothing."

"oh."

Zhou Li looked around.

At least a dozen people walked slowly along the roadside. The leading young man was holding a pack of chicken essence in his hands. Brother Nan’s mother was listed. Zhou Li guessed that these dozen people should have come out to buy chicken essence.

The engine sounded muffled, and Brother Nan quickly overwhelmed the group of people. Only one young man turned his head and found them.

"Isn't that the cousin of the fourth aunt's family?" the young man exclaimed, "Why is there a man sitting in the car!"

"It seems to be this car." Brother Nan's mother said.

"It must be, it's not picked up."

Zhou Li silently conveyed his words to Brother Nan.

Brother Nan waved his hand casually: "Don't be nervous, then I will tell them that I took a ride-sharing order to subsidize the gas money."

Zhou Li thought for a while: "It seems that not only your Li family members are prosperous, but your grandmother's family is also lush."

"Are you scared?"

"Afraid."

...

Arrive at Mingjiu Mountain.

Zhou Li got out of the car, took out the wine and milk, and there was an extra backpack in the carriage, which was an ancient book that his name Huai Xu had just taken. He went to Yinyang Temple from Mingjiu Mountain and passed by Zhihong Temple.

Brother Nan poked his neck out of the window: "If I am convenient, come to you in the afternoon. Tell me how to go, and pick me up halfway. If not, I will come back tomorrow morning. I can't say that my brothers and sisters may not let me go."

Zhou Li nodded.

Huai Xu had already shown signs of appearance, so he took the initiative to carry the bag and carry the milk, and Zhou Li only brought two bottles of wine.

Lightly packed.

There are quite a lot of people coming to climb the mountain during the Chinese New Year. Even if the epidemic broke out a few days later and there were no tourists, there would still be some nearby villagers coming to climb the mountain.

Going up the road, the steps are light.

Zhou Li has improved a lot in the past six months. He ran up the steps and successfully arrived at Zhihongguan at noon.

The houses that make up the Taoist temple seem to have undergone some renovations, which look better than half a year ago, but they are limited innocence. However, the small temple in front of the yard has been well repaired. During the Chinese New Year, there is a lot of incense in front of the small temple, and a new layer of red cloth is also built on the top.

It was the meal time, and there was no one in front of the view, only green smoke rose.
