1983 Small Island, Starting From a Large Farmer

Chapter 459 Buddha jumps over the wall

　　After Li Duoyu changed back to the original set of clothes, his temperament returned instantly.

 Looking at Li Duoyu in front of him, Zhou Xiaoying felt that spending so much money to buy him clothes was 100% the right choice.

She herself didn’t expect that Li Duoyu would be so suitable for wearing a suit. Once he put it on, he really looked like a small leader.

Li Duoyu checked his watch and saw that it was almost time for dinner, but the big things he bought would not be packed until the afternoon.

 Li Duoyu asked: "Auntie, do you have any other arrangements next?"

 Xu Xiaoqing replied: "There are no arrangements for the time being."

“If not, why don’t we have a simple meal together nearby? My uncle has taken care of me a lot in the past two years. I will treat you to today’s meal.”

Uncle Chen Dongqing clicked his tongue and said, "I've been shopping with you for so long, and finally I'm waiting for you to say this. Please don't treat us to laohua anymore."

Auntie rolled her eyes at him: "You are already a section chief, so you can't learn how to fish, so be careful."

However, just like Wenwen said, this kind of quarrel between my uncle and his wife is just a daily occurrence.

The uncle responded directly: "Anyway, he is a fake section chief who is not popular, and he is not a real section chief. How can he be stable?"

Wenwen on the side shook her head helplessly.

The eldest brother Li Jinchuan and his sister-in-law Jiang Yuqin came out. The eldest brother was still wearing work clothes for repairing machinery, and his hands and clothes were covered with engine oil.

 Because her personality is really similar to that of his daughter-in-law in her previous life. They both like to elevate others and belittle their own husbands.

The uncle replied: "That's what you just said, I'm just repeating what you said."

I was obviously very tired, but when I got home, I suddenly said to me: So and so, I’m tired again, and it’s uncomfortable to put it on anyone.

At this time, my uncle suddenly said: "Duoyu, does Jinchuan work nearby? Do you want to invite them to have dinner together? I haven't seen Jinchuan for a long time. I just want to have a drink with him."

Not to mention, in his previous life, my uncle was a member of the provincial party committee. If he works steadily in this life, he might even climb higher.

Xiaoying also quickly advised: "Auntie, Wenwen must be hungry. Duoyu is right. Let's go eat first."

 In this era, my brother-in-law is already considered to be very outstanding, and he became a deputy subject at such a young age.

My uncle once said that my aunt always likes to compare others. This is why my uncle is very tired and doesn’t like to go home.

Li Duoyu hurriedly said: "I know there is a store nearby. It's very delicious. Let's go and have a look."

Li Duoyu was slightly startled. He did give his sister-in-law more than fifty eels last time.

With their persuasion, my uncle and aunt finally softened up and were no longer so quarrelsome, but they still felt unhappy with each other.

 In short, to get along with this type of woman, you must have a strong heart.

The uncle quickly waved his hands and said: "This can't be done. After we finished eating that day and found out the price, we were all shocked. How dare we ask for such expensive things."

Li Duoyu and Zhou Xiaoying looked at each other and smiled helplessly, seeing that they were still getting angry.

Li Duoyu looked puzzled: "Uncle, you still remember me."

 Having not walked for a few minutes.

Li Duoyu smiled awkwardly. You two are quarreling with each other. Can you please leave me alone? I don’t want to be compared.

Li Duoyu really wanted to say, if you want to quarrel, go home and quarrel. Don't quarrel in front of us. This puts a lot of pressure on me.

"here we go again."

 After only being in contact with her aunt for about half a day, Li Duoyu roughly understood what kind of person she was.

I thought she would give it all away, but I didn’t expect that my sister-in-law would actually share the expensive eels with the people in the factory.

Everyone arrived at a nearby machinery factory. Before Li Duoyu even said hello to the guard, the guard smiled and said, "Are you here to see Li Jinchuan and Jiang Yuqin?"

As long as things go smoothly, the level will definitely not be too low in the future.

Li Duoyu was also helpless. It was his suggestion to visit the Friendship Store this time. If there was a quarrel while shopping, he was somewhat responsible.

When a group of people left the Friendship Store, the waiter who had previously given him a hard time saw them coming out and trotted over quickly, nodding and bowing.

Having a wife who is such a good person, it’s no wonder that the eldest brother has been getting better and better in the factory in the past two years, and Li Duoyu is also a person who likes to provide help in times of need.

"You guys wait a moment, I'll go in and call Jinchuan and the others."

Li Duoyu said disgustedly: "He is not afraid of me. He is afraid that I will complain to him and ruin his job."

The sister-in-law was wearing loose clothes, and her belly was visibly swollen. It looked like she had been there for many months.

“Remember, how could I not remember? Many people in our factory ate the eel you gave to Accountant Jiang last time. It was really delicious.”

Hearing that there was a big brother and sister-in-law invited, Zhou Xiaoying quickly went to a nearby counter to buy a scarf that was not too expensive.

“If you like it, I’ll send you some more next year.”

“Okay, I’ll go to their factory to find them later, and then go have dinner.”

 In less than a few minutes.

Auntie glared and said, "Chen Dongqing, you're celebrating the New Year, are you deliberately trying to quarrel with me?"

 “Walk slowly, welcome to visit next time.”

 Zhou Xiaoying smiled and said, "Why does this person suddenly become so afraid of you?"

“Duoyu, why did you come to us all of a sudden?”

Li Duoyu smiled: "It's Comrade Dongqing, I miss you."

After seeing Chen Dongqing, Li Jinchuan greeted him directly: "Uncle, aunt, long time no see."

Hearing Li Jinchuan calling him uncle, Chen Dongqing instantly smiled and glanced at Li Duoyu: "Jinchuan is still sensible, unlike a certain person who is obviously a generation younger than me and knows all day long whether he is older or younger."

Li Duoyu said with disdain: "Auntie is right, her mind is not mature enough and she is not stable enough."

After hearing this, my aunt smiled: "That's right, you are already so old, and you are still just like a child."

 Chen Dongqing:

After seeing her sister-in-law, Zhou Xiaoying hurriedly handed the scarf she just bought into her hand: "Sister-in-law, a little thought."

Jiang Yuqin quickly waved his hand: "It would be great if you came to see us and give us such a valuable thing."

 “It’s not expensive, just a little bit of care.”

Li Duoyu asked: "Brother, sister-in-law, have you eaten? Why don't we have a meal together?"

Li Jinchuan nodded and said: "We haven't eaten yet. If you come, you can just have a light meal together in the canteen of our machinery factory."

Li Duoyu smiled and said, "I promised my uncle today that I would treat him to a nice meal. Let's go together."

 Li Jinchuan thought for a while and then said: "Okay, you guys wait for me, I will go back to the office to change clothes and wash my hands by the way, otherwise the restaurant owner will probably blast me because I smell like machine oil."

Li Duoyu led a group of people and after walking for about five minutes, they saw an authentic Rongcheng snack bar.

The name is also very interesting.

The eldest brother said: "There are many fish, so this store is good. The fish balls, taro paste, eight-treasure rice, tripod paste and so on are all very delicious. Your sister-in-law and I used to eat here often."

　　“This restaurant is really good.”

 As a person from Rongcheng, I have long been tired of eating these things.

 The place he wants to go today is not far from here, only two to three hundred meters away.

 Ju Chunyuan Restaurant!

Jiang Yuqin’s eyes widened when he saw Li Duoyu bringing them to this restaurant: “Duoyu, you don’t want to treat us to this restaurant, do you?”

 Li Duoyu nodded: "Sister-in-law, don't you like it?"

Jiang Yuqin quickly shook her head. She had seen the world. She had eaten here several times when she was following the former factory director.

 She wanted to say that this store was very expensive and not something ordinary people could afford.

Thinking about Li Duoyu's current net worth, it seems that there are no restaurants in Rongcheng that he can't afford. Although my aunt was a little angry, she still asked her uncle: "Dongqing, what do you eat in this store? It doesn't look cheap."

Chen Dongqing frowned and said: "He who eats Buddha and jumps over the wall."

When my aunt heard about this dish, she immediately became excited: "Is it the Buddha that jumped over the wall at the state banquet?"

 Chen Dongqing nodded.

In fact, Li Duoyu was really good at making Buddha Jump Over the Wall. In later generations, the recipe for Buddha Jumping over the Wall is no longer a secret.

 It's just such a big dish. It's not interesting to cook it yourself. It's more interesting to spend money to eat it.

Juchunyuan was originally called Sanyouzhai, and the founder was Zheng Chunfa. Later it was changed to Juchunyuan. It seems that it was acquired and became a state-owned enterprise more than 20 years ago.

The signature dish of this restaurant is Buddha Jumping Over the Wall. As for why it is called Buddha Jumping Over the Wall, it seems to be because at that time, a poet immediately praised this dish after eating it:

ˆ “

 The altar is opened and the fragrance of meat is floating around,

 The Buddha heard that he abandoned Zen and jumped over the wall.

“

From then on, this dish was also called Buddha Jumping Over the Wall.

 The process of making this dish is really complex and delicate.

 The selection of ingredients in the early stage requires a long time of preparation. Next, there are steps such as making soup, soaking dry food, preliminary processing of raw materials, and simmering.

 An authentic Buddha Jumps Over the Wall has more than twenty kinds of raw materials, including abalone, sea cucumber, shark fin, cuttlefish, scallops, isinglass, tendons, flower mushrooms, pigeon eggs, etc.

Since most of them are dry goods, it takes at least two or three days to soak them. Including cooking, it takes at least five or six days to make a Buddha jump over the wall.

It can be said that the Buddha Jumps Over the Wall that we eat today can usually be prepared a week ago.

 When ordering food.

Li Duoyu directly asked her sister-in-law to help. She is a local and she is really familiar with this place.

In addition to the Buddha Jumping Over the Wall, several of the dishes ordered are also the signature dishes here.

After everyone waited for about half an hour, a large yellow earthenware pot was brought up, and the waiter who served the food also shouted:

 “The Buddha jumped over the wall and is here.”

As the master opened the earthen pot, the rich aroma instantly hit his nostrils, and even the people eating in the restaurant could smell it.

As you can see, the ingredients inside are really real, including abalone, shark fin, quail eggs, and hoof flowers.

The waiter smiled and said, "Would you like to divide it into small portions for you?"

 Li Duoyu nodded and said, "Okay."

 Next, the waiter divided a large cup of Buddha Jumping over the Wall into seven small bowls fairly.

 After Zhou Xiaoying took a sip of the soup, she was completely stunned and her eyes widened.

 “This soup is too fragrant.”

Auntie kept nodding: "Since I was a child, I have never eaten such delicious food."

Li Duoyu, who works with seafood all day long, could not help but swallow his saliva when he smelled the fragrance of Buddha jumping over the wall.

Japanese food pursues more of the original taste, while Buddha Tiaoqiang is completely opposite. It brings together the deliciousness of more than 20 kinds of ingredients and pursues the ultimate fragrance.

Each bite is filled with concentrated essence. Perhaps because it is so delicious, my uncle and aunt no longer quarreled. They both ate and laughed.

In addition to this dish, the lychee meat, Tai Chi fragrant taro paste, fried liver with onions and black rice that my aunt ordered were also quite good.

Everyone enjoyed the meal quite happily. A group of people ate the entire table of food, trying not to waste any food.

My uncle was even more exaggerated. He just showed off three bowls of rice. Now he is sitting on the chair like a dead fish and keeps touching his belly.

 “It’s over, my stomach hurts a little.”

Auntie said speechlessly: "That's just the way you are. If it's delicious, you'll keep eating it. If you get diarrhea later, you'll eat in vain."

"Hahaha."

Hearing this, everyone couldn't help laughing. A group of people sat eating and chatting.

 Li Duoyu asked: "Brother, when will you, sister-in-law and Xiao Min return to the island?"

"There are still things in the factory these two days, and it may take another two days."

"That's just right. I'm moving on the 25th, and you can just come to my new home for dinner. By the way, you can set a time, and I'll ask Xiao Chao to wait for you at Qingkou Pier."

Eldest brother Li Jinchuan quickly waved his hand and said: "No, we can just take the passenger ship back."

"How can that be done? Dad specially told me to take good care of my sister-in-law. During the Chinese New Year, the passenger ship is full of people and it is very crowded. It is inconvenient for my sister-in-law to have a big belly. You decide the time and I can let Xiaochao be there. I’ll wait for you at the pier.”

 “Then let’s do it on the afternoon of the 24th lunar calendar.”

 Eldest brother Li Jinchuan suddenly asked: "By the way, when will Xiaorong come back?"

 “Little Rong arrived on the 26th.”

Li Jinchuan frowned and said, "How about I wait for Xiaorong to come back, and we go back together, so that you don't have to make a trip."

“No, I have always picked up Xiaorong. We have a specific contact point. If you go there, you may not be able to pick her up.”

"Fine."

 A group of people rested in the store for a while, and then the elder brother and sister-in-law went back to the machinery factory.

Li Duoyu also went to the warehouse behind the Friendship Store, and he took out several pick-up orders.

“Hello, we have packed the items you purchased. Where do you want them to be shipped?”

 “Just transport it to Rongcheng Wharf.”

 “Is it going to be shipped?”

 “That’s right.”

 “Okay, I have informed the master.”

Li Duoyu spent a small amount of money to stuff a pack of cigarettes for the master who transported the goods and the master who helped with loading and unloading.

Auntie frowned and whispered: "Duoyu, they are responsible for moving this thing, why are you stuffing cigarettes for them?"

Li Duoyu smiled.

"I'm used to it. When I see the master moving things, I can't help but want to stuff my cigarette."

Auntie was quite speechless: "What kind of habit do you have?"

The uncle on the side sighed with emotion: "I think the habit of Duoyu is very good. These working brothers who do hard work are actually very hard."

Auntie glared at him.

 “Are those cigarettes of yours given to you by Duoyu?”

 Li Duoyu shook his head instantly: "I didn't give my uncle a cigarette."

Auntie looked at Chen Dongqing: "If Duoyu didn't give you cigarettes, where did you get the money to buy cigarettes?"

The uncle opened his mouth wide, looked at Li Duoyu with resentment, and cursed in his heart: "My uncle, you want to kill me."

Although a pack of cigarettes is not worth much, these workers worked very hard after receiving the money. The master in charge of transportation helped direct the work on the spot.

 “Move carefully.”

"Don't get it. These things are very expensive. If you get it, your monthly salary won't be enough to compensate you."

 After a while, the things Li Duoyu bought were moved to the fishing boat by the workers.

People are like this. Many things are indeed their responsibility, but as long as you add a little sweetness to them.

 The overall service quality has been directly doubled. Many times, Li Duoyu feels that it is not that the domestic service industry is not good. More often, it is because the money is not provided.
