Volume 4 A bowl of ramen

The ramen shop is not far from Xuyang's rental house. It takes about three or four minutes to arrive. There is a sign on the store. The sign is a bit old and mottled. I don't know if it is dirty or smoky. I wrote the five big characters "Henan Ramen Shop" written on it, which is full of courage and majesticity. It is said that it was written by famous artists. Xu Yang doesn't believe it anyway.

The owner and chef of the ramen shop are not from Henan. He and his wife may not have any relationship with Henan for eight lives. Xu Yang asked him before, why he gave this name, and the boss smiled but didn't say anything. The boss's wife revealed the essence: "What's the point? It's either Lanzhou ramen or Henan ramen outside. We don't look like Hui brothers, so we can only pretend to be Henan people."

Xu Yang deeply agrees that the common people have great wisdom...

The system exclaims face again.

After entering the store, Xu Yang wanted to shout proudly: "Boss, come a bowl of ramen and add another portion of meat!" (System: "Is this called charity?")

However, considering the current shriveled pocket, um, whispered: "Boss, add an egg to a small portion of ramen." (System: "I was wrong...")

The owner of the ramen shop has a figure that he must be at least a second-rate master in the martial arts world. He is six feet tall, has a waistline of at least six feet, has a wide shoulders and a thick back, and is wearing a white chef's work clothes. He suddenly looks like a white board with a mahjong plaque...

How could the boss look so "magnificent" when he works so hard every day? This is something Xu Yang has never figured out.

People are very enthusiastic and have a sense of humor. I remember that when Xu Yang first moved here, he came to a ramen restaurant for the first time to eat noodles. He met a second-rate man who grew shriveled and thin. He obviously had nothing to do that day, so he rushed to the store in a hurry, and kept asking the boss to hurry up, as if he was going to welcome Trump after eating...

The boss said at the time: "Okay, I'll pull it quickly, and you can eat it quickly."

There was nothing at that time, but after that, the second-rate guy felt something was wrong. I wanted to get up and confront the boss and compete. The boss could make four second-rate guys in this outfit, and then... it became quiet.

So Xu Yang always feels very good to the owner of the ramen shop, and the boss’s wife is also good. Seeing that Xu Yang has only eaten small bowls of noodles, he often adds more meat to him every time. Sometimes the boss deliberately doesn’t count the ramen, which makes Xu Yang’s small bowls sometimes bigger than others, making him embarrassed.

It’s not that Xu Yangcheng wants to take advantage of the boss’s wife (how does this sentence feel like it’s wrong?), it’s really a shortage of money.

I have a monthly internship salary of 4,000 or 5,000 yuan. In addition to renting 2,000 yuan, the remaining meals, car fares, and mobile phone fees occasionally have to buy shoes and clothes. During the holidays, I have to buy some small gifts for my girlfriend to have some surprises. It is basically not enough every month. If my parents didn’t help me with each other, I would probably not be able to stick to it.

Small bowls of noodles save 2 yuan than large bowls. One meal a day can save about 60 yuan a month, and the mobile phone fee will come back. If you save a little in other aspects, you don’t have to talk to your parents often.

So, I have to worry about it.

At this time, the boss was smiling as usual. To be honest, the noodles at his house were not very delicious, but Xu Yang often came here for the kind boss and the boss's wife. Well, of course, it was the premise that he had some money in his pocket. At other times, to be honest, ordering takeout would be more cost-effective...

Not long after, a bowl of steaming beef ramen was placed in front of Xu Yang. The noodle soup was not clear. It is said that it was made from big bones. In fact, the noodle soup with more MSG and some more noodles tasted average, but the noodles were really good and very chewy. In the words of some food hosts of Magic City TV stations, it was chewy. After eating it in one bite, the satisfaction came to the face. The beef was sliced ​​very thin. The boss put his hand knife skills in the martial arts world. When others saw that he was definitely a martial arts master, he picked up a piece of beef. Against the light, it was a little light. The noodles were covered with a layer of beef and coriander, which looked a lot, which greatly increased the appetite. In fact, it was only less than one or two beef, but Xu Yang had no intention of complaining at all. He was not an unknown person. In other ramen shops, beef could be half as good as this bowl, so he dared to eat the bowl.

I was already hungry, and I couldn't eat my boss's beef noodles for a month, so eating voraciously was the only way out. When the boss's wife brought the poached egg to Xu Yang, she had already eaten a bowl of noodles. At this level, Zhu Bajie in the mythology and legendary was nothing more than that.

Xu Yang looked at the boss's wife awkwardly and said shyly: "I forgot to eat lunch, so... I'm a little anxious."

"Wuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwujiu, you can't eat it in a hurry. I'm happy. Do you want to add some noodles?" I don't know where the boss lady is from. It sounds like a little Shaanxi accent. She put the poached egg into Xu Yang's bowl while saying that.

"No, no, I'm almost full, I'm really full after eating this egg." Xu Yang then picked up the poached egg and bit it down with one bite. The yolks dripped out. Not bad, it's still a soft-boiled egg, and the taste is quite fragrant. With the eggs mixed with it, I ate the remaining noodles and noodle soup in one breath. Xu Yang sighed deeply, it's comfortable, it's really full.

After eating, I drank the free barley tea in the store and looked around. At 5:30 and 6:00, it was the meal. Today, there were a few people in the store...

"Boss, the business is not very good." They are all acquaintances, so there is no need to hide their words. Xu Yang asked casually.

The boss had nothing to say, but the boss's wife was anxious and said: "Who said no, it's all wrong..."

Halfway through the words, the boss gave a look, and the boss's wife swallowed the second half of the sentence in anger. The boss called him: "Who said it was not? Business is not easy to do these days, and no one can blame him. Every family has a difficult sutra, right?"

There is a situation here. Xu Yang thought to himself that no matter how difficult the business is, the traffic will not be reduced by half in just a few days. Moreover, when the other customers in the store are mostly raw, they are obviously passing customers. What about those old customers in the past?

The matter is not up to you, let alone since they are unwilling to mention it, they don’t have to ask too much. After paying the noodle money, Xu Yang walked out of the noodle restaurant.

I called Liu Qian again, but this time I turned off the phone.

Where are you going now?

I don’t want to go back to the rental house for the time being. All the guys who shared the rent in the evening have to come back. I was so whispered that I couldn’t have a good rest. I couldn’t calm down until at least 12 o’clock.
Chapter completed!
