Chapter 434 His Junior Uncle

The distance is a little more than 20 kilometers. According to what the coach just said, ordinary people can complete the distance in about an hour and a half, but Liu Wangxue and the others can complete the distance in about two hours. I came back half an hour later to return the car.

Just having fun and relaxing, we are not in a hurry anyway, so a few people ride at a relatively slow speed. Sometimes they stop to drink water, chat and take photos. It is considered late to come out, so it is better to wait. It was already 12 noon when we finished the car.

The two of them who hadn’t eaten much in the morning were already so hungry that their chests were touching their backs. Wenxi held Du Yunkai’s arm and was almost hanging on him, looking like he was about to faint from hunger: " Let’s go eat first.”

Liu Wangxue’s original schedule was to get up early to go cycling, come back after riding, have breakfast, then go for a walk to Yucun, and then have lunch there. For Wenxi, who has difficulty getting up, the departure time in the morning was postponed, and now we had to make some changes. The group of people took the sightseeing bus directly to Yucun, and agreed to have lunch there before going shopping.

According to records in the Yucun Chronicles written by the tribesmen, the Xie family of Yucun was a wealthy family in the north more than 200 years ago. In order to avoid trouble, the old patriarch took his tribe to a small town in the south to find a place at the foot of the mountain to rebuild their lives. settle down. The lintel of the main hall of the Xie family's mansion still hangs on the plaque mentioned by the old patriarch, which reads "A corner of peace" - which is where the name of Yu Village comes from.

The clan members keep in mind the teachings of this old patriarch, be low-key and behave in a low-key manner, so that the Xie family can last for hundreds of years. But the tide of the times cannot be avoided. During a certain movement, the Xie family members almost handed over everything, so that the entire village could be preserved. After the world was at peace, the descendants of the Xie family began to seek development outside the country, and then came back to support the family.

Ten years ago, the government planned to take the lead in tourism development in the Mid-Levels area, and the Xie family participated in it, contributing both money and effort. After the completion of the plan, the tourism economy gradually developed and the momentum was great. Many young people outside the country returned to their hometowns to start businesses.

The restaurant Liu Wangxue and the others went to was opened by a descendant of the Xie family. Strictly speaking, it was a branch of the Xie family, and they came here with the old patriarch. It is said that the person in this branch who is the same generation as the old patriarch once went to the palace to prepare a banquet for the emperor. All the skills of the old man have been passed down, but they fell apart during a certain turbulent era. It was only in the past ten or twenty years that the younger generations picked up again. Although it is not as good as the old man's skill back then, he has still managed to achieve eight or nine points.

Li Yu is most familiar with the history of Yucun. On the way to the hotel, he acted as a tour guide and told everyone about the village from its founding to the present, and finally settled on this hotel: "Xie Ji said it was three years ago It just reopened recently. As soon as the name was announced, many gourmets came here. I ate there when I came to sketch. The food is generally not expensive, but it’s really delicious.”

Tao Huayu also went there with his clients. He is also the kind of person who both loves and knows how to eat. He is full of praise for the food here. When Liu Wangxue talked about the itinerary yesterday, he praised her for being "discerning and tasteful." . Now, following Li Yu's words, he reported a list of dish names and suggested that everyone order them all soon.

Liu Wangxue exclaimed: "This is too much. There are more than ten dishes, and there are only six of us. We can't finish them."

Xu Qingsong just wanted to speak, Tao Huayu took the lead and gestured with his hand: "Don't worry, you can finish it. In addition to the exquisite taste, the dishes in this restaurant are also exquisitely presented. Each portion is not large. The six of us will probably eat a plate with one chopstick each."
< br>Xu Qingsong stopped talking.

Li Yumeng nodded in agreement: "Yes, yes, I can order four dishes and one soup by myself."

Wenxi laughed at him: "Aren't you male college students at the age where you can eat? What's so strange about four dishes and one soup?"

"It's true!" Li Yu was afraid that she wouldn't believe it, so he added, "I I had eaten a round of snacks on the street before going there, otherwise I would have eaten four dishes and one soup. I feel like I’m not full.”

Liu Wangxue also laughed. She had already discovered Li Yu’s ability to eat. We had a barbecue together before and everyone was full, but he was still holding the skewers. This morning too, the dinner plate was almost full, so I went to add another round after finishing the meal.

"Then I have a question," she asked Li Yu, "You usually eat so much little fish, where does all the meat go?" She looked thin and not tall.

“It’s growing on my face.” Wen Xi’s hand felt itchy again, so he stretched out to pinch Li Yu’s cheek, “Look at the chubby flesh, it feels so good!” Du Yunkai immediately pulled her hand away: "I told you to be careful, Ren Xiaoyu is an adult, not a child."

Wenxi pinched Du Yunkai's face with his backhand: "Okay, I'll pinch you then." Then he commented: "There is no feeling."

Du Yunkai was particularly helpless.

Li Yu has long been used to being pinched by Wenxi. He raised his hand and touched his face: "You are not fat."

Tao Huayu also pinched him: "You are not fat." .”

Liu Wangxue also reached out and pinched: "Eat more later, look at this thin one."

Xu Qingsong also pinched, and joked: "Don't be afraid, Xiaoyu, you have to be brave to defend your rights." , you can't let them harass you all the time."

Du Yunkai said in disgust: "Do you want to see what you were doing just now?"

Everyone laughed together.

While talking and laughing, we arrived at the entrance of Sumima Village. Everyone got out of the car and walked in together.

A food shopping street has been planned here, and Xie Ji's shop is located slightly further inside. As soon as he set foot on the commercial street, Li Yu was like a fish in water, recommending various snacks to everyone. So when they arrived at the door of the hotel, everyone had more or less something in their hands, and Li Yu had already finished a bowl of fermented rice with eggs.

There is a gold-lettered signboard hanging above the lintel of the hotel, with the words "Xie Ji" in running script, and a line of small characters below, "This is the only one, there is no other."

When you walk in, you can see that the lobby is almost full of people, and there are also many diners waiting for a table in the side hall at the entrance. Li Yu was holding a bunch of fried squid in his hand and had just taken a bite: "I forgot it was dinner time now. I always came here at the wrong time to eat."

You have to go to the front desk to get your order first, Xu Qingsong asked everyone to sit and wait in the side hall while he went over. Over at the front desk, a middle-aged man in Chinese-style clothes was talking to two young people in hotel uniforms. He turned around and saw Xu Qingsong, his eyes full of surprise, and he walked towards him in a few steps: "Qingsong. ! Why are you here? You didn’t even say hello in advance.”

Xu Qingsong greeted him immediately and called out with a smile: “Little Master”

This person is Xie Ji's boss, named Xie Zhuoyi, who is a close disciple of Xu Qingsong's grandfather. Xu Qingsong calls him "junior uncle" according to his seniority.

Xu Qingsong explained: "I heard from the master that you were going to attend an exchange meeting recently. I thought you were not here."
