No Worries about Food and Medicine

At the end of summer, the wind at night seemed to be soaked in the stream, with a refreshing coolness. The downpour of a day of heavy rain finally finally took hold in the evening, the whole sky was foggy, gloomy and depressed, and the person's chest was breathless.

It's getting darker and darker, but the diners are still flowing.

There is a small restaurant in the west of Xin'an County, Changdu Prefecture, which is the time for customers. This restaurant has been open for five or six years. Everyone in Xin'an County knows that there is only one out-of-town boss in the shop, whose surname is Xu. Everyone calls her "Xu Er Niang" and is accompanied by a little girl of six or seven years old. The proprietress was exquisite and slim, and she was always wearing plain clothes. I don't know how many bachelors were red. I wanted to hit a good luck with my fist.

But the proprietress had been seriously ill within a few years after opening the restaurant. Hearing that the doctor in the county said that the disease was not effective, but now it is just dragging the patient to death. It's a pity that the little girl she carried, named Sui Sui, was flexible and very cute, and she would become a childless mother.

Neighbors 'neighbors' poor mothers and daughters would sit in the restaurant and have a bite. This is strange to say, there is nothing else in this shop, only selling a bowl of miso noodles, so it is named "a bowl of noodle restaurant".

The "One Bowl Noodle House" noodles are freshly kneaded noodles every day, with eggs inside, which can be cut wide or rolled, smooth and soft when cooked, and chewy to chew; this halogen is not complicated, it is made of buttocks All kinds of vegetables are cut into the size of beans, then the onions and garlic are sautéed with hot oil. When the fragrance comes out, a spoonful of self-fermented bean paste and meat and vegetable grains are fried in, and a spoonful of cooking wine is scooped. , The oil rolled again, the dishes were cooked, and the soup was ready.

When the guests want it, they just pour the soup just out of the pot onto the egg noodles, and finally pour some sesame oil on top of the green onions. When they are served on the table, they are a big bowl full of heat. Although it is simple and homely, But the salty fragrance is overflowing, making the mouth wide open.

The small noodle restaurant also became lively with this bowl of steaming noodles. Many people sat in one after another, some ordered a bowl of noodles to eat first, and some just kept the bowl of noodle soup. I don't know what to wait for.

At this time, a teenager got out of the back hall and looked at 16 or 7 years old. He carried a round red lantern in his hand. He trot across the front hall and hung the lantern outside with his toes. Looking sideways for a long time, I was sure that there was no crook, and then I stepped back into the room.

No one knows where this young man came from. Asking Xu Erniang is also unclear. But fortunately, the teenager is clever and smart, and looks pretty and cute, which is very popular. The most important thing is that he will cook good dishes, solicit a lot of business for this "a bowl of noodle restaurant", and seems to be a doctor, often able to talk about ordinary dishes and talk to the folks in the village. Headache and brain fever.

Everyone couldn't figure out who the boy really was, so he followed Xu Erniang and called him "Little Brother".

"Brother Xiaonian, what else did you make today?" Some of the diners stopped him with a loud voice, "Don't you tell us to take a look?"

The teenager turned his head when he heard the sound, and was obsessed with recognizing the person who had spoken from a bunch of diners. Then he replied with a smile: "Uncle Zhang? It's a little sultry today, Sui Sui is going to eat sweet, I'm going to Give her a comb and try it. "

Some people are curious: "What is this comb mark?"

The teenager blinked, pretending to be mysterious and said: "I will know when I make it!"

After giving a bow, he passed under the curtains of the front and back halls.

The young man was no longer in the hall, and the diner named Zhang looked more expectant and shouted, "Okay, okay! You can hurry up, younger brother! My belly is empty enough to support the boat ! "

It caused a crowd of diners to laugh.

The front hall was lively and busy. Yu Jinnian had washed his hands and stepped into the kitchen. He looked up and saw a dull head rubbing his face in the house. He opened his mouth and was surprised. "Oh, Niang, how are you up?"

This figure is the proprietress of this "a bowl of noodle restaurant"-Xu Erniang. At first glance, it is indeed a pretty beauty, but from the thinness and paleness of her face, she can see her heavy illness.

Er Niang smiled and said, "I haven't been bothering you to do things inside and out for so long. I still get up and move and feel better."

"What's the matter here?" Yu Jinnian rolled up her sleeves and poured out the already ground mung bean powder from the side urn. Her eyes curved, "If it weren't for the second Niang Niang's stay, where would I still be? Would n’t it be right to help Er Niang do some work? By the way, Er Niang, I boiled some jujube soup, which is the best way to replenish qi and nourish the blood. Use it in your free time. "

Xu Erniang pursed her lips and warmed slightly.

She said she didn't know much about the teenager. She only knew her surname, Yu Jinnian, and she collapsed in front of her noodle shop a few months ago. When Xu Erniang got up early and opened the shop, she found out that she was busy dragging people in.

After waking up, the teenager said that he was alone and helpless, and wanted to stay and work as a handyman. She only looked at the young boy with a thin figure and a pale complexion. It didn't look like a hard-working young man. Maybe he was a little arrogant young man who might run away. Maybe there would be family members looking for it soon, so it was just a matter of having more mouths at home. But I didn't expect that the boy was young, but the craft was good. A strange snack recipe, and a dish she had never seen before in three days.

At first, I just ate with her and Sui Sui, which really tasted good. Later, I asked the teenager to set up another stall at the entrance of the noodle shop. Selling some snacks sooner or later was a good deal. This cold noodle restaurant was gradually warmed up, and even some people came to taste the young people's snacks.

What's more, the young man's temperament is gentle and kind, his eyes are unexpectedly bright, he is already handsome, and he smiles more like a crescent moon, which is very clever. Xu Erniang had a premature son in her early years. If she was still alive, she was almost as old as Yu Jinnian. This even involved her deeply hidden motherhood. In the past few months, she has already hurt Jin Nian as a half son. Too.

Thinking of his prematurely dead son, and thinking about his own illness, Xu Erniang couldn't help turning her back, secretly wiped her tears, and later recovered, seeing Yu Jinnian was putting a handful of dried leaves in the washed garlic mortar In the middle, he crushed the sad thing again and asked, "What is this for food?"

Yu Jinnian patiently pounded: "This is dried mint leaves, mashed good dough, make a comb mark for Sui Sui." He said, he pushed Xu Er Niang out of the kitchen, "Nian Niang go back and rest , After a while, let Sui Sui bring you a copy. "

"Good ..." Er Niang walked out of the kitchen with a smile. "Don't disturb you, don't be too tired. If the greedy people outside make trouble, even if you rush out!"

"Got it!" Yu Jinnian waved his hand.

After sending away Xu Erniang, Yu Jinnian was relieved and returned to the kitchen, sifting the minced mint leaves through a fine sieve, and taking the fallen fines to use. Also called flour and soy flour, half, together with mint, add water and rise up.

Seeing the loose flour congealing into a fluffy dough a little bit, he was always tense and loose, and the whole person froze.

He has been here for more than a few months ... When he opened his eyes wetly a few months ago, he was on a mass grave, surrounded by dead bones and stinky deciduous stems, There is also a red-eyed crow hovering over his head, waiting to peck his eyes at any time.

He was not the precious and unbearable person. Apart from the initial surprise, he didn't have much other thoughts about this situation when he woke up. He just calmed down and thought carefully. Because of his soreness and weakness in his hands and feet, he had to sleep overnight in a mass grave and recuperate, but he was lucky to dream of some of the original memory of this body and slowly figured out his current situation.

The body is also called Yu Jinnian. He was originally a young master of a family of Yu in the nearby Sifang Village, but his parents went early, and he was petted like a little girl, soft and tender. When he was entrusted to the family of Uncle Yuantang in the same village to look after him, he was only four years old. At that time, the little doll could not be separated from the good and evil or the smell and smell. After that, he was occupied by his own fields and houses, not to mention, he was still being treated harshly, but he could grow up after all.

Before Yu Jinnian wore it, it was his pair of cheap uncles who owed debts abroad and wanted to sell him to the bully creditor as a pet. He never got along. He was beaten again one night and he bit his teeth and became hungry. Escaped. Unfortunately, his foot strength was weak, and he was found not far after running. This slippery foot slipped into the river on the side of the village, and when it was caught again, it was cold and cold.

Uncle aunt hated his failure, broke his Feng Shui, and did not even send the funeral, so he wrapped him in a straw mat and threw it to the mass grave.

——

In fact, Yu Jinnian, who had just put on this body, couldn't figure it out. He knew that he must have died, but who expected this awakening, how could he get a healthy body in vain and live again?

However, there are still many unfinished things in his mind. At that time, even if there was a little hope, he wanted to live well, so he did not want to lie in this wild mountain and wait for death, and he did not want to go back to the inhumane. " "Yu".

After a night at the mass grave, Yu Jinnian endured pain and climbed up, walked aimlessly along the mountain road, picked wild vegetables and grass on the roadside when he was hungry, and drank water along the river when he was thirsty. , I just felt that I was in the city, and there were lights in front of me.

Later, it was really sleepy and hungry, and fell down in front of Xu Erniang's shop.

But in any case, the materialistic Yu Jinnian suffered the most ideal thing in his 28 years of life, this is when he woke up again from the heavy sleep, and heard that he was lying on the head of his bed and looking at his spike When Shi Potian yelled "Mama ---" in shock, it really felt--

He was indeed dead and resurrected, and he was resurrected in a great Xia dynasty that he had never heard of, and was resurrected in the 28th year.
