Beidiao Workplace Illustrated Book

Chapter 24 Summer 2015 (24)

"Mo, get off work at night, come with me to Xizhimen." Xiao Chen leaned over and looked at the statistics of the number of stores registered in Chen Mo's notebook: "Yes, so many stores opened today?"

Chen Mo chuckled: "47, by the way, why are you going to Xizhimen?"

"Take your luggage. My sister just went to Xizhimen today, and she is pulling your luggage in the car. Let's have dinner together tonight." Xiao Chen said, "After get off work, just follow me."

Chen Mo is helpless in BJ, the only one he can rely on now is Xiao Chen, but Xiao Chen is different, Xiao Chen has several brothers and sisters from the same family who are all in BJ, and they are all doing well, but Xiao Chen They are relatively independent, and they don’t rely on their brothers and sisters for everything. After work at night, the two of them took the subway line 10, then changed to line 13, and finally arrived at Xizhimen. Chen Mo was so dizzy in the subway that he couldn’t tell the difference That's right, Xiao Chen is like Li Kui, leading Chen Mo like a weak Song Jiang, rampaging in the subway and on the road, and after a while, he sat in a Nanjing food stall restaurant in Xizhimen CapitaLand Mall.

It was the first time that Chen Mo walked into Nanjing Da Pai stalls, and Chen Mo looked like Grandma Liu entering the Grand View Garden. The decoration of Nanjing Da Pai stalls is antique. The words "Nanjing Food Stall" are written in black ink on it. Under the orange light, the words appear vigorous and powerful. Standing at the door of the store is a young man, wearing a blue mandarin jacket and wearing a Tang dynasty coat. Wearing a hat from the era, wearing round-toed cloth shoes on his feet, and wearing a mic on his mouth, when he saw a guest coming, he quickly called out, "Guests, please come inside."

Walking into the store, there are rows of neatly arranged square tables and square stools exuding a retro fragrance. The male and female waiters who serve the food are also wearing green cloth jackets and round-toed cloth shoes. If these diners are not dressed in modern Chen Mo felt that this scene seemed to have traveled through a space-time tunnel and returned to the prosperous Tang Dynasty. He looked around and felt a novelty.

"Here, here." Chen Mo saw Chen Mo falling behind him, and hurriedly greeted him.

Chen Mo took small steps and quickly followed Xiao Chen.

My sister has been waiting in the restaurant for a long time. I guess Xiao Chen will be here soon, and I have already ordered dishes in advance. There are sweet and sour pork ribs. This is the main dish of Nanjing food stalls and one of the must-order dishes. A few small ribs wrapped in sugar oil Lying quietly on the plate, the browned and reddish look makes people full of appetite, and the price is reasonable, and the taste is sweet, but all the diners who come here will ask for a sweet and sour pork ribs, and order a plum For pork rice, a dark green fresh big bamboo leaf will be placed at the bottom of the plate, and then the steamed buckwheat rice will be placed in it. The aroma of meat and plum vegetables are mixed together, and it can be regarded as the treasure of Nanjing's famous stalls.

Seeing the younger brother leading the younger brother, the elder sister hurriedly greeted: "This is it, this is it."

Xiao Chen sat down naturally, and greeted his sister: "Sister." Then he looked at Chen Mo: "This is my classmate, Chen Mo."

Chen Mo sat down cautiously: "Sister."

The elder sister responded, and hurriedly greeted the two little brothers: "The food has just been served, you eat quickly, I have to leave quickly after eating, otherwise, there will be a traffic jam again." Then she picked up the chopsticks and started eating.

Seeing that her sister had moved her chopsticks, Xiao Chen took out two sets of chopsticks from the bamboo tube, handed one to Chen Mo, and started to eat with the chopsticks in his hand again: "Everywhere is blocked at this point, especially the Xizhimen side."

When I was a child, Chen Mo’s father told me that at the dinner table, you have to wait until the elders move the chopsticks before you can eat with the chopsticks. Respect others, otherwise it is impolite. Chen Mo was young at that time, how could he understand this principle? It was just one time when his relatives had a big gathering at home. When he saw the delicious food being served, he rushed to eat it. Stars were shining in his eyes, but he didn't eat well and cried all day. After that, Chen Mo had a long memory. No matter who he was eating with, he was the last one to move his chopsticks.That's why Chen Mo saw his sister and Xiao Chen moving their chopsticks, picked up the chopsticks, and put a small piece of the sweet and sour pork ribs in front of him into his mouth. The ribs seemed to melt in the mouth, sweet and delicious, and the meat was soft. , This is simply delicious in the world.

Thinking about these years, I have eaten some delicious food, but most of them are common meals. Even if I followed the relatives at home, the food I ate was quite satisfactory. He was born in the countryside and had never seen anything in the world. The dishes made by restaurant chefs in the county town are nothing more than street dishes, and they all taste the same. He has never eaten ribs in his memory, let alone sweet and sour pork ribs as delicious as today. Sweet and sour pork ribs are still in his memory. In a composition book he read when he was a child, an elementary school student wrote that the lunch he brought included sweet and sour pork ribs made by his mother.

But my own mother, when did she make sweet and sour pork ribs for herself?My mother never made pork ribs for herself, let alone sweet and sour pork ribs.

A serving of sweet and sour pork ribs, and the old-fashioned decoration of Nanjing's big-name stalls made Chen Mo, who has just arrived, gain insight again.

The short ribs on the plate were only five pieces in total. After Chen Mo finished eating one piece, he saw that there were still two pieces on the plate, so he was embarrassed to pick it up again. But Xiao Chen's sister had no intention to pick up the ribs again after eating a few other dishes. Finally, Xiao Chen and Chen Mo shared the remaining two ribs.

After eating two pieces of sweet and sour spareribs, looking at the empty plate, Chen Mo couldn't get enough of it. At the dinner table, Xiao Chen and his sister were chatting about work, but Chen Mo didn't say a word. After trying the plum meat rice bowl, I still feel very delicious. It is obviously rice, but because the plum vegetables and marinated pork are put in, the rice is sweet and delicious.

Seeing that my sister and Xiao Chen finished eating quickly, Chen Mo also put away his chopsticks. After the sister paid the bill: "You wait for me on the side of the road, I will go to the underground garage and drive the car out."

Xiao Chen took Chen Mo and waited by the side of the road: "I see, let's take a taxi back later, otherwise it will be too inconvenient to take the subway with your big luggage."

"Is there no traffic jam?" Chen Mo asked.

"Traffic, how can there be no traffic jams in BJ, and traffic jams are more convenient than taking the subway."

"Okay." Chen Mo is used to it. Xiao Chen is the young master, and he will never waste any energy if he can solve it with money. If Chen Mo is asked to pay for a taxi by himself, he will be reluctant. He would rather be tired and sweat profusely , but also to take the subway home with luggage.

At this time, Chen Mo was still recalling the sweet and sour pork ribs and the dishes on the table just now. The taste of this famous Nanjing stall can be summed up in one word: sweet, the dishes are sweet, the rice is sweet, and everything is sweet. And he happens to be a person who loves sweets, and it is said that people who love sweets will get fat, but at this time Chen Mo is not very fat. Two or three months ago, he was starving every day, and the fat and water on his body had already I was squeezed dry, where did the fat come from?But thinking about going to work with Xiao Chen every day these few days, cooking and eating after get off work, he feels that he has gained a lot of weight.

If he also came to BJ after the big blow, and the three of them lived together, then he would definitely gain weight slowly.

My sister drove the car to the side of the road, the trunk of the car opened automatically, Xiao Chen took out Chen Mo's luggage from the trunk, and greeted my sister, and my sister's car drove along the side road to the East Third Ring Road.

In the dark night, Chen Mo is full of endless aftertaste for today's Nanjing big-name stalls.
