Chapter 1594 Food
In the evening, at dusk, with smoke from the cooking pots, there are two special delicacies in the southern part of the desert, one is the charming snail meat in fragrant soup, and the other is the charcoal-grilled golden crispy scorpion, fuzi and hemp spots. They were enjoying both delicacies.
“It’s delicious. The snails in the fragrant soup are cooked just right. It’s delicious.” Hemp Spot was so spicy that he burst into tears. He still sucked the soup and fat from the snail shell one by one. Juicy snail meat.
The same is true for Toast Bear and others. Although the spicy food made their eyes and nose runny, they still wanted to eat it. It was the first time for some of them to eat the snail meat in fragrant soup, and they were full of praise when they ate it. Some people don't like spicy food and will eat them even if they die. Especially when you roll fresh meat and vegetables with dry pancakes and eat them with soup, your mouth is full of happiness.
Fuzi rolled up a piece of cake, dipped it in the soup and was eating a big piece of it. He noticed that Ruola next to him didn't move much, and said strangely: "Hey, sister Ruola, why don't you eat it? Here The snail meat is so delicious. I don’t know what the secret recipe is. It’s better than what my chef makes.”
Ruola said 'hmm' but ate absentmindedly.
Fuzi tilted his head and blinked, thinking about something thoughtfully.
"Hey, shop owner, business is here"
At this time, a man wearing luxurious clothes and a group of people came to the outside of the small shop. The shop owner and his clerk saw this Don't dare to neglect anyone who comes, and rush forward to entertain them.
"Hey, isn't this Chief Jon? How come you have time to come to the shop in person? Send someone to tell you what you want to eat, and I'll just ask the guy to deliver it to your home. Why bother running there yourself? It’s just a trip.” The shop owner came out to entertain the guests in person, saying that he didn’t need to come in person, but was already preparing to invite the guests into the shop.
In a small town on the edge of the desert, the houses are not very tall, usually only two or three floors in a boxy shape. Half of the shops and restaurants are outdoors and half are indoors. The better-furnished rooms are all on the second floor.
Butler Jon waved his hand and said: "No, I'm here to order, not to eat here."
"Then what do you and everyone else want to eat? I'll give it to you right now. "I'll do it for you."
Qiaoen said: "Come on." What else is there to eat? Of course it’s your secret fragrant snail soup and golden crispy scorpion.”
The shop owner counted the number of people and said with a smile: “Okay, we have these. Ready-made, I’ll pack it up and deliver it right away.”
"Wait a minute." Chief Jon stopped him: "I want the golden crispy scorpion for fifty people, the fragrant soup charm snail... Well, let's get it for seventy people."
The shop owner was shocked: "So many?"
"Wouldn't it be better for you to do more business?"
The shop owner was puzzled: "Seventy portions of fragrant soup with snails. The shop didn't prepare so much. If I cook them all for you, what will happen to the other customers? Butler, I'm not the one to refuse. Why don't you go to other shops to order them?" A little bit, share the burden for the small store.”
General Manager Jon didn’t pay attention to the store owner’s difficulties. , said coldly: "I came to order from you because the fragrant snails in your store are delicious. Otherwise, why would I come to your store? Let me tell you, today's meal is specially for you. The princess of the Demon Moon Kingdom and the officials of the country have prepared it. No portion of these seventy people should be missing. As for the other guests..." He He glanced coldly at the guests dining at the tables around him and said: "They want to eat the snail meat in your store. When can't they eat it? It has to be today? Do it quickly. If there is not enough snail meat in the store, go somewhere else." If you take it from a restaurant, just do what I say. If anyone refuses, I will demolish his shop!”
"Yes." The store owner had no choice but to agree, and said: "There are some ready-made ones in the store. There are about twenty copies. Can I send them to you first?"
"No. " Jon said: "I forgot to tell you, all the food must be cooked again, I I will ask my people to watch, especially if the food of Princess Moyue is not clean, if the food is not clean, the stomach is broken, or there is an accident, do you still need your head?"
< br>"This, this, this..."
Jon added: "Also, the princess's food must be cooked separately and cannot be mixed with other people's food. The snails used must be the largest and freshest. I will personally go through all the ingredients you use. Once it's done, Your benefit is indispensable. If the princess is satisfied with her meal, I will The uncle will reward you heavily and propose to the mayor that you be exempted from tax for three years.”
The store owner couldn’t afford to offend Jon, so he had to accept the business and quickly called the store’s employees. Go and get busy so that you don't have to take care of other customers' business.
Fuzzy looked at the arrogant butler behind him directing the shop owner to do things, and thought, has Sister Alice left yet? After dinner, Ruola was resting in the hotel room when there was a knock on the door. When she opened the door, it turned out to be Fuzzy.
Fuzi walked into the room without waiting for anyone to invite him, sat down on a chair and said, "Sister Ruola, I see that you didn't seem to be in the mood during dinner. What were you thinking about?" What?"
"Ah, it's nothing."
"Come on, I know you have something on your mind, and it will make you feel better if you tell Fuzzy about it."
Ruola sighed and said: "I'm thinking about where to go in the future? Although I have a goal in my heart, I still feel at a loss. It has been two years since I left my hometown. In these two years, I feel like I have no roots. The duckweeds are wandering around. Now I finally feel that home is precious, but ..."
Fuzi didn't understand Ruola's sadness, but he had the opposite view: "What fun is there in staying at home? On the contrary, I envy Ruola's sister who can go wherever she wants. . ”
“There are some things you don’t understand, you are still young, and you don’t Have you ever experienced the feeling of not having a home?" Ruo lowered his eyelashes and said quietly: "Home is a distant concern. It is not a house or a hut, but a relative who can be remembered and will always be in my heart. No matter how far I go, there is always that concern in my heart. Now, without this care, I am like a heart that has been hollowed out, feeling empty and helpless."
Fuzi blinked his eyes and suddenly smiled: "I can be yours. My dear.”
“You?” Ruola looked at Fuzi and smiled.
Fuz was unhappy and puffed up his cheeks: "Sister Ruola, do you look down on me?"
Ruola said: "No, that's not what I meant. Some things cannot be replaced just by saying they can be replaced. "
Fuzi scratched his head: "I don't understand, oh, forget it, I don't want to understand either. I saw it before. Sister Ruola didn’t eat much, and she thought you were sad about Alice.”
“Sad?” Ruola smiled: “Why should I feel sorry for her? It’s too late for me to envy her. Well, no matter whether she is willing to get married or not, at least she has family members to arrange the marriage for her, parents and relatives who care about her, and A... a master that she always talks about and remembers in her heart. Like me, she travels in the world, but she knows where and who she should return to in the end. "
"What you said is so profound, Sister Ruola, but don't you think Sister Alice is pitiful? She was forced to marry For a person who doesn't want to marry, it's like in a fairy tale, the evil bad guy wants to capture the innocent and kind princess, and the warrior who transforms into justice will lead his friends to defeat the bad guy and save the princess. Sister Alice is. A real princess, so we should save her." Fuz became more and more excited as he spoke, his eyes shining brightly.
“…” Ruola didn’t know how to answer the question.
Seeing that she was silent, Fuz said: "Sister Ruola, don't you agree to save Her Royal Highness the Princess? Sister Alice is our friend, can you bear to see her unhappy?"
"Friend." Ruola's heartstrings were touched. She originally didn't agree with the innocent and cute Fuzi's idea, but now she was a little hesitant. After a while, she said: "Even if we want to help her, what can we do?"
"Well..." Fuz touched his chin and smiled: "I don't know what to do. How to do it.”
Ruola sighed, completely speechless.
Fuz added: "But Her Royal Highness Princess Alice's sister is still here. Cannabis Spot has already gone to inquire about the news. When he comes back, we will know where Her Royal Highness Princess Alice's sister is, and then we can discuss ideas."< br>
The two stayed in the room for a while. Before they finished playing a game of checkers, Cannabis Spot had already returned. They made an appointment to meet in Ruola's room, so the three of them met here.
