Chapter 320 A warm dinner

Not long after pushing the bicycle back to the old lady's house, the old lady came and knocked on the door, insisting on taking him to have dinner.

Qin Yuan originally thought about refusing, but when he saw the old lady looking at him with hopeful eyes, he couldn't bear it in the end, so he obediently came to the old lady's kitchen.

I saw that the stove in the kitchen was steaming hot, and at the same time, the smell of fish filled the entire kitchen, and the fragrance was so fragrant that it made people move their index fingers.

"Young man, come and sit here. The conditions in the countryside are limited, so we can only eat around the stove. Don't mind." The old lady looked at Qin Yuan very politely and said.

Hearing this, Qin Yuan waved his hands repeatedly: "It's okay, it's okay. In this winter, you can stay warm by eating around the stove! And, old man, isn't what you are eating stewed fish? Fish stew should be eaten around the stove to make it delicious. !”

"It seems that you know a lot about life in the Northeast, young man?" After hearing Qin Yuan's words, the old lady laughed.

"I saw this on the Internet. Northeastern stews are quite famous across the country." Qin Yuan said truthfully.

With the rapid economic development in recent years, delicacies from various places have spread to other cities. This is nothing new.

For example, Chongqing's hot pot, Northeastern's iron pot stew, Hunan's fish head with chopped peppers, etc. These delicacies that were once only available locally have now blossomed across the country.

In addition, the Internet is so developed now, even if you have not eaten it in real life, you have definitely seen it on the Internet.

As a Northeastern person, when Qin Yuan said this, the old woman couldn't help but show a happy look on her face.

"My eyesight is too old, and I don't know if what I make will suit your taste, so just make do with it and eat some!" the old lady said very modestly.

"Old man, you are so humble. I don't even need to eat this stewed fish. Just by smelling it, I know it's very delicious."

As Qin Yuan spoke, he picked up a piece of fish meat with chopsticks and threw it into his mouth. He chewed it a few times. Suddenly, the rich smell of fish filled his entire mouth. He couldn't help but feel a sense of ecstasy, and his face couldn't bear it. The resident showed a look of enjoyment.

It didn't expect that the old woman's cooking skills in front of it were so superb. It asked itself that it had been traveling around for some time. It had tasted the skills of many chefs along the way, and many of them were delicious.

There is no doubt that the craftsmanship of the old lady in front of her is one of the top ones.

"How is it? Is it delicious?" Seeing Qin Yuan take a bite, the old lady looked at Qin Yuan expectantly and asked.

"It's delicious. It's really delicious. Old man, your cooking skills are really great. I've tasted the cooking skills of at least a hundred chefs along the way. Your cooking skills can definitely be ranked in the top ten."

"Young man, your mouth is so sweet. Since you think it's delicious, you should eat more! I'm an old man who can't usually eat a few mouthfuls. My grandson is coming back today, so I made this pot of fish stew. .

Little did we know that he had something to do and couldn't come, so I was the only old woman left. Just now I was worried about how to eat this pot of stewed fish.

I didn't expect you to come here, young man. It just so happens that you can help me eat all these, so that they won't be wasted. "

The old lady looked at Qin Yuan quietly and said, as if an amiable elder cared about the younger one.

"I see. I'm just asking you, an old man, how can you prepare such a big dish as fish stew when you are alone? You know, even a young man can't finish this fish stew." Qin Yuan looked suddenly enlightened.

"Yes! I'm old now, so I can only eat a little bit. I only cook such a meal when my relatives come back."

The old lady nodded, then took a tortilla from the side of the pot and ate it slowly.

The old lady in front of me is at least over 80 years old. She has lost all her teeth. Now the teeth in her mouth are all dentures, so she can only eat soft things.

Looking at the old grandma in front of him, Qin Yuan felt more and more that she was very similar to his own grandma, which made him feel even closer.

So he immediately put a piece of fish without bones into the bowl for the old lady: "Grandma, don't just watch me eat it alone. You should also eat some. This fish has no bones and the meat is very delicious. It is most suitable for you old people." have eaten."

"Well, I'll eat, I'll eat." Hearing Qin Yuan suddenly call herself grandma, the old man's face was full of smiles, and he looked very happy, as if he really regarded Qin Yuan as his own relative. .

An old man lives alone in this remote mountain village, rarely seeing anyone.

Under such circumstances, one can imagine how wonderful this warm feeling is now that a young man can have a meal with her.

For others, such a meal is just a commonplace event, but for the old man in front of me, it may be an event that has haunted him for countless days and nights.

As the aging population of Long Country continues to deepen, this situation will only become more and more serious, so the problem of empty nesters becomes more and more serious.

Of course, he is not a high-ranking government official, he is just an ordinary citizen, so naturally he cannot solve the problem of empty nesters.

But now that he has met him, he will do his best to care for every old man he meets, and he can still do this.

"By the way, grandma, where did you get this fish? In this world of ice and snow, you probably can't get this fresh fish, right?" Qin Yuan looked at the old grandma in front of him curiously and asked.

No one knows the current road conditions in this village better than him. Under these conditions, it is impossible for an old man to leave the village to get any fresh ingredients.

So, not to mention the plump fish meat, so he was really curious about where the fish he was eating now came from?

"This fish! I have to thank the staff of the township government. Now our country is really getting better and better. The comrades of the township government know that I am an old man living here alone, so they come to visit me every now and then. Then bring me a lot of food.

This fish was delivered by them two days ago. Otherwise, how could I, an old woman, get such a fish? "As soon as she mentioned this matter, the old lady's face showed a happy look, and she was obviously very satisfied with the staff of the township government she said. "I see, if you put it this way, the comrades of the township government have done a really good job. Well, it is worthy of praise. No wonder grandma, you still dare to live here alone at such an old age. With you saying that, I don’t worry about your life anymore. "

Qin Yuan suddenly realized that he couldn't help but have a good impression of the township government staff that his grandma mentioned.

This gave him an idea. He felt that it was necessary to publish this kind of act of kindness to attract people's attention.

After all, he will leave here tomorrow morning and go to the next destination. It is impossible for him to take care of this old man all the time, so if more people can pay attention to this old woman, then it will not be a big deal for this old woman. A good thing.

"Don't worry, I'm fine. I don't have any problems other than being a little boring. It's even better to meet a distinguished guest like you and chat with me like today."

And just when he was still thinking about how to make the old lady in front of him popular and get more people to pay attention to her, the old lady waved her hands repeatedly, telling Qin Yuan not to worry about him.

"Grandma, you're welcome. I just passed by you by chance. I didn't help you at all. I also ate your meal for nothing. What a good thing it is to meet me!" Qin Yuan said with an embarrassed look.

"Young man, please don't say that. You can chat with me and have dinner with me. This is the best thing in the world for me. Except for the staff of the township government who come here occasionally, Apart from that, there are very few people who usually come here, and these two little guys usually accompany me." As the old woman spoke, she pointed at the little white fox and the old yellow dog who were resting on the side.

As soon as the white fox was mentioned, Qin Yuan became interested, and then asked curiously: "Grandma, what's going on with your little white fox? Where did you get this gadget?"

"This white fox! It's a coincidence. A few months ago, I found it in the woods behind. At that time, it was injured for some reason, and then it lay in the snow and howled. I thought it was pitiful. I took it home to raise it, but I didn’t expect that it would stop leaving after it recovered well.

So he stayed here and became good friends with my old yellow dog. The two of them are now my close relatives. They can usually do a lot of things for me! "Speaking of the white fox and the old yellow dog, the old lady couldn't help but show a hint of pride on her face.

"Is that so?" After hearing the old lady's words, Qin Yuan immediately moved his eyes to Bai Hu, with a hint of scrutiny in his eyes.

Hearing Qin Yuan's question, the white fox nodded repeatedly, and then said in his heart: "Yes, grandma is right, that's what happened."

"Since your injuries have healed, why don't you go back to your own home? Aren't you worried about being taken away when you stay in a human home?" Qin Yuan looked at the white fox curiously and asked .

Hearing this, Bai Hu shook his head very firmly, and then continued to use his voice: "I can't leave. Grandma is old and in poor health. Since she took care of me and let me recover from my injuries, then I I must also help her, and I must repay this kindness."

Qin Yuan did not expect that the white fox in front of him knew how to repay kindness, which made him feel shocked. You must know that even humans may not possess this kind of character. Let alone repaying kindness, it is already ungrateful. Very rare.

But the white fox in front of him actually knew how to repay his kindness, so he was naturally shocked.

"I didn't expect you to have such a side. It's really good. Come on, I'll give you a piece of fish to eat!"

After listening to the white fox's words, Qin Yuan couldn't help but feel very fond of the white fox in front of him. It's hard not to love a fox who knows how to repay kindness!

So he immediately picked up a piece of fish meat and threw it in front of the white fox. Seeing this, the white fox's eyes narrowed into crescent shapes again, just like a smiling face, which looked very cute.

After eating with the old lady for about half an hour, he finally finished the meal. If Qin Yuan's appetite was enough, he could finish the whole pot of fish stew in just a few minutes.

However, he did not do this, because the fish stew was not made by him, but by the old man himself. He did not know how long the fish stew would be eaten by the old man in front of him.

If he rashly ate all the fish, it would not be a very polite behavior, so he deliberately did not finish it all, but only ordered it.

However, this resulted in him not having enough to eat until the last minute, so when he returned to his room, the first thing he did was use the gas stove to cook dumplings.

“I have to say that the old lady’s cooking skills are really great, and the fish stew is simply a masterpiece!

However, the portion was limited, so I didn’t dare to eat too much. After all, I didn’t know how long it would take to eat the pot of fish stew made by the old lady.

If it took a long time to eat and then I finished it quickly, it would be a sin. But because I didn’t eat enough, my stomach was not full, so now I had to cook some more dumplings to eat. "

Qin Yuan looked at the camera and said while tinkering with his gas stove.

When he spoke, he seemed to be worried about being heard by the old lady who lived next door, so he deliberately suppressed his voice. He sounded soft and looked a little funny.

Because after more than an hour of heating, the temperature of his room has already gone up, so the gas stove can be used in the room.

After more than ten minutes of hard work, he secretly ate 50 dumplings, which completely filled his stomach.

"The feeling of being full is good! But in terms of taste, it cannot be compared with that old lady's craftsmanship. This needs to be made clear.

After today's meal, I have completely fallen in love with the fish stew. When I have the opportunity, I will see if I can replicate grandma's fish stew and eat it to my heart's content. "

Qin Yuan checked the time on his phone. It was already after eight o'clock in the evening. For young people in the city, at this time, they might have just gotten off work, or they might not even get off work yet.

But in the countryside, especially in this deserted countryside, it feels very late at eight o'clock in the evening. It is quiet outside and there is no movement at all. The old lady has already gone to bed because of her old age.

Qin Yuan originally wanted to shoot some video material, but because he was worried about disturbing the sleep of the grandmother in the next room, he did not continue shooting. Instead, he took out his tablet and started editing today's riding video.
