Dali Temple Small Dining Room 2

Near noon, Wen Mingtang and Zhao You walked into a noodle restaurant at the end of the alley of Shengyefang and asked for a bowl of noodles and two side dishes.

It's not that he is reluctant to spend money, although he is still far from being able to afford a house in Chang'an, Wen Mingtang still has enough money to go to a restaurant on weekdays.In particular, Ji Caimai checked the account in advance, and Wen Mingtang received the money he earned from the takeaway stall two days ago, and now he has a small savings.

There are many shops of all kinds in the Keshengyefang area, and the buying and selling transactions are the most frequent. Noon is the time when there are the most people.

Although it was not too late when the two came to Shengyefang, no matter whether it was a restaurant or a famous restaurant, it was already full of people.

Seeing this situation, Wen Mingtang didn't say much, but took Zhao You through the most prosperous street in Shengyefang and then detoured to the alley behind the street.

The noodle restaurant at the back of the alley is remote and narrow, and it is difficult for carriages to pass through, but there are not many people.

Wen Mingtang took Zhao You to sit down by the window facing the street, opened the window and looked towards the back door of the shop not far ahead.

The front door of this shop is directly facing the busiest street in Shengyefang. Naturally, the shops on this street are not small. Several shops have been opened up, and the upper and lower floors are the same jewelry shop.

It is not an ordinary person who can open such a jewelry shop on this street. The owner behind this jewelry shop is none other than Princess Liyang.

Looking from a distance, apart from the shops on the whole street that need to transport ingredients in and out, only Princess Liyang's jewelry shop specially opened the back door.

A jewelry store deliberately opened the back door?This may be a coincidence, or it may be used for other purposes, who knows?
As the buddy said "Come on", Yangchun noodles were brought over.

Yangchun noodles are quite popular in Jiangnan and other places. Get up early and go to a noodle shop on the street, and order a bowl of Yangchun noodles. Although a bowl of clear soup, smooth noodles are simple but delicious, it can be said to be a daily meal for many people. up.

Looking at the noodles with two or three dots of green onions and the thin noodles in the bowl, Zhao You said "Oh", and said: "So the Yangchun noodles are smooth noodles in clear soup. The name is so elegant, what should I call it?" face!"

Wen Mingtang said with a smile: "The name of this noodle is as elegant as Yangchun Baixue, but the origin is very simple. Because at first this kind of clear soup smooth noodles were sold for ten cents a bowl in Jiangnan and other places. October is Xiaoyangchun, so the lingo in the market is Yangchun. It represents ten, so it is called Yangchun noodles."

A spoonful of lard, a spoonful of soy sauce, and a spoonful of clear soup are used as the base, put into the noodles, and finally garnished with chopped green onions to form a bowl of Yangchun noodles.Although it looks simple, it is also simple to make, but the noodles and the cooking time are quite particular. The soup is salty and fresh with the aroma of lard, and the aroma of chopped green onion is integrated into the soup. The ingredients are simple and well made. Yangchun noodles are extremely delicious.

The bowl in front of me was quite authentic. I drank the soup first after eating the noodles. I drank two sips of the Yangchun noodle soup, and then poured the selected toppings into the bowl.

The side dishes made of pickled vegetables, shredded pork, and shredded bamboo shoots are salty and delicious. The fried poached eggs are on top, whether they are eaten empty or pressed into the noodle soup, they are quite attractive.

Zhao You, who was on the side, took a sip of it, then sank his head and began to groan.Hearing the loud noodle sloshing sound in his ears, Wen Mingtang glanced at the slightly swaying egg core in the middle of the poached egg, and saw that it was a runny one. When he lowered his chopsticks, he took a little effort and carefully picked up the poached egg soaked in soup. , just took a bite, and the hearty egg yolk gushed out of it.

Although this noodle restaurant is a bit remote and there are not many people, the noodles here are delicious.Looking at the small noodle shop with only a few tables, it is simple, but it is very clean.

The owner of the noodle shop is a middle-aged couple, busy in and out, making authentic Yangchun noodles, but because the location is too remote, the business is mediocre.

While the two couples were busy with their work, they whispered about trivial matters such as "dishes" and "noodles". Wen Mingtang bit the poached egg on his lips and couldn't help but smile: Wu Nong's familiar soft words, no wonder he did it so authentically.

Just as he was smiling, he heard the middle-aged woman suddenly say "It's almost time, it's time" in Wu dialect.

Wen Mingtang was in a daze saying "it's time", when he heard a "squeaky" sound coming from not far away.

When I looked up instinctively following the source of the sound, I saw the back door of the jewelry shop, which was closed at first, suddenly opened, and two women dressed as maids came out from the back door of the jewelry shop, and then turned around and locked it from the outside Live at the back door of the jewelry store.

After that, he instinctively looked left and right at the alley before turning around and leaving.

When Wen Mingtang was staring at it in a daze, Zhao You's voice rang in his ear: "One more bowl of Yangchun noodles, it's so delicious, this time I want that... three delicacies topping."

The woman who was speaking in Wu dialect immediately said "Hey", and then said "Guest officer, wait a minute" in authentic Chang'an official dialect, and immediately the voice under the bowl rang out.

Wen Mingtang picked up a chopsticks of noodles and put them into his mouth. While chewing, he thought about the situation just now: Although the two women dressed as maidservants seemed to be doing nothing, their hands were empty, and they didn't take anything, but they looked around. His reaction really looked like a guilty conscience.

Just as she was eating noodles and thinking about the scene she saw just now, the woman came over with the Yangchun noodles that Zhao You wanted with toppings, and when she put down the noodles, she still joked with Zhao You, "Guest officer has a good appetite."

Zhao You said "Hey" before saying "That's it!" The woman looked at Wen Mingtang who was eating noodles with a smile, and said, "What were you looking at just now? It was in the Liji jewelry shop in front of you." The two who came out?"

Wen Mingtang didn't raise his head immediately, but he paused while eating the noodles, and gave a vague "um" with the noodles in his mouth.

The woman didn't seem to understand her intention of avoiding the taboo, she still smiled and said: "Every day at this time will come out, maybe I took a shortcut back to the palace!"

The name of this Liji Jewelry Shop has the word "睡" in it, and it can be regarded as clearly showing its behind-the-scenes owner.

Although there were not many people in the noodle shop, the woman's words did not avoid the crowd, so all the guests who were eating noodles heard it.

When you think about some things, you know something is wrong.

"Wangfu took a shortcut and didn't go this way!" A customer who was eating noodles said "Hey", wondering, "Why do you go through the back door on purpose?"

The woman smiled, brushed the hair hanging on both sides of her face, and said casually: "I don't know about it. I only know that it has been more than three months, and it will come out every day!"

As soon as these words came out, I don't know if it was Wen Mingtang's illusion. I just felt that the atmosphere in the noodle shop suddenly became quiet, and the diners who were making noodles subconsciously slowed down. Zhao You was still cheerful and sullen.
