Chapter 17 Sour Plum Soup


Chapter 17 Sour Plum Soup

At meal time, more and more people entered the store. Some like Qiu Chen got the news early and came to support Jiang Feng, while others like the young couple came into the store out of pure curiosity.

Those who are familiar with Jiang Feng, no matter how ugly their faces are after reading the menu, will sit down and drink the refreshing cup of sour plum soup to relieve the dissatisfaction and heat in their hearts.

Those who entered by mistake, like young lovers, were only a few who chose to stay. Most of them looked at the customers in the store in surprise, muttered "black store" in a low voice, and slipped away as quickly as oiling the soles of their feet.

"How many people have left?" Qiu Chen, the four of them, even after having a good meal and a drink, still did not forget their responsibilities as actors. It was obvious that they felt uncomfortable even sitting down, but they still stayed in their seats and pretended to wait for the food.

The four plates on the table were as clean as if they had been licked, and even the soup was all used to mix the rice with no waste at all.

"It's the sixth one." Li Jian from the Chinese Department counted carefully, "It's so pitiful that he left without even drinking the sour plum soup."

Qiu Chen rubbed his belly and looked at the guests on the first floor. It was just twelve o'clock and not yet dinner time. Most of the guests on the first floor were already full. He couldn't help but feel a little worried in his heart.

"School hasn't started yet, and Brother Feng's restaurant is almost full because the food prices are so high. When school starts, if we want to come and eat, why don't we have to grab a seat?"

The other three people also felt threatened.

"How about we come to eat at night?" Liu Zixuan, a wealthy man, suggested.

"Okay, okay." This great proposal was unanimously approved.

At this time, a group of people appeared at the door of the store.

Liu Zixuan and Qiu Chen's seats faced the door, and they stood up immediately when they saw the person at the door.

"Hello, Professor Wang!"

"Hello, Teacher Li!"

"Hello, Professor Chen!"

"Department...Hello, Head of Department!"

The nine people in the group are all teachers from the physics department, and four of them have met Liu Zixuan and Qiu Chen alone.

"Professor Wang?" Jiang Feng heard the commotion, put the sour plum soup in his hand on the guests' table and ran to the door, "Hello, teachers."

"We are here for dinner. You, Professor Wang, want to treat us. We didn't expect to meet so many students. Jiang Feng, are you working here during the summer?" Professor Chen, the youngest, said with a smile.

"I'm just helping in the store." Jiang Feng said.

As soon as I walked in, I found that most of them were students from the physics department. The professors were stunned. Almost everyone could find a student they had taught.

"Here, where are our physics department classmates gathering for dinner today?" Professor Wang, who was always serious, couldn't help but joke when he saw this situation.

"This is a store opened by my family. Come and support me on the first day of opening. Teachers, please come upstairs. There are private rooms and round tables upstairs. Teachers, do you want to go to the private rooms?" Jiang Feng walked in front and led the way.

"You don't need a box, so we are here to cheer you up." Professor Chen said with a smile.

There is a menu on the second floor. Jiang Feng went downstairs to get some sour plum soup for the teachers and let them look at the menu and order.

As soon as he opened the menu, Professor Li smiled and said: "It's not easy to find a restaurant with such a complete range of Shandong cuisine near University A!"

The prices of the dishes in the healthy stir-fry restaurant are a bit expensive for students, but the teachers at University A are well paid, so the price is very reasonable with such a thick menu.

Generally speaking, if you don't have diamonds, you don't dare to stop the porcelain work.

Several professors were not polite and ordered some vegetables and several main dishes, including sweet and sour carp and Dongpo pork elbow.

Jiang Feng and Wang Hao brought the sour plum soup. Jiang Feng took a look at the menu and saw that there was nothing wrong with it, so he went to the kitchen to inform Comrade Jiang Jiankang.

Jiang Jiankang stewed two elbows. He originally planned to eat them by himself, one for lunch and one for dinner. Now that the professors ordered them, he had to feel sorry for Comrade Jiang Jiankang and eat less. The carp was even more coincidental. Yesterday, Jiang Jiankang went to the small vegetable market behind the wholesale market based on what Jiang Feng said. He met two very fresh live carps from a vendor who bought aquatic products, so he bought them back and kept them.

I didn't expect to get one of them in the pot today.

Professor Chen picked up the cup and took a sip of the sour plum soup and praised: "This sour plum soup is delicious!"

"Everything you drink tastes delicious." Professor Li is a native of Yanjing and is the most authoritative spokesman for sour plum soup among the teachers. "Today's sour plum soup is all bought in supermarkets and mixed with additives. It’s not like when we were young, we used rock sugar to cook it. This palace drink must be smoked..."

Professor Li picked up the cup and was stunned as soon as he put the sour plum soup into his mouth.

The light smoky smell was the same as the old stores that specialized in sour plum soup that he drank when he was a child.

No, maybe better.

"What's smoked?" Professor Chen asked.

"Wumei." Professor Li swallowed the sour plum soup in his mouth, "Is this shop opened by the student you teach?"

"Jiang Feng, that guy was not good at his professional courses. He almost failed last semester." Professor Chen picked up the cup again and took a sip. "I think this cup of sour plum soup is already delicious."

"This is an authentic palace recipe, cooked slowly with rock sugar." Professor Li was a little dazed, as if he remembered something, "Since those old shops closed, I haven't had such an authentic sour plum soup for a long time."

"Then we are in for a treat today." Everyone laughed and drank the sour plum soup in their hands.

In the kitchen, Jiang Jiankang offered his elbow in tears.

Jiang Jiankang visited all the vegetable markets and supermarkets near University A and carefully selected these two elbows from hundreds of elbows. I soaked it in ice water for twelve hours just to remove the smell of blood. Even the elbow from last night's meal didn't get this treatment.

Jiang Jiankang loves to eat elbows and pays special attention to every elbow he wants to eat.

In order to make the elbow well, he asked people to go everywhere to find good Huadiao wine, just to use it as an ingredient for the elbow.

Jiang Jiankang was in the kitchen, sadly taking out his treasured Huadiao wine and pouring it into the pot, while muttering: "Xiao Feng, if it weren't for you, my father wouldn't have come up with such a good Huadiao wine."


Jiang Feng:...

Comrade Jiang Jiankang always looked like he was about to die every time a customer ordered elbows. It was obvious that he had hundreds of bottles of Huadiao wine hidden away.

The Huadiao wine he used for his guests was always the worst.

Finally, Jiang Jiankang poured a spoonful of broth on his elbow.

This is Jiang Jiankang's cooking habit. He likes to pour a spoonful of broth on everything. There is a pot of simmering broth in his kitchen at all times.

The broth diluted the sauce on the elbow, but it also enhanced the umami and aroma. When Jiang Feng walked out with the elbow, almost all the guests on the first floor looked at him.

"It smells so good." Some people couldn't help but sigh.

Although my heart was moved, no one touched my elbow.

We are all students, and few of us are willing to spend hundreds of dollars to order a portion of pork elbow.

The fragrance floated all the way up to the second floor.

"What does it smell like?" Professor Chen felt his index finger move as he smelled it.

"Dongpo's elbow, teachers, please use it with caution." Jiang Feng brought the elbow to the table.

"Teacher Chen, this Dongpo pork elbow is a famous dish in your family, and you still can't smell it?" Another young teacher joked.

"This is not Dongpo elbow. That's not how the Dongpo elbow here is made." Professor Chen shook his head and stretched out his chopsticks to pick up a piece of elbow with the skin and flesh on it. "Maybe it's their own way of making it in the store. It's just called Dongpo elbow." The pork elbow, this plate of pork elbow is much more fragrant than the ordinary Dongpo pork elbow.”

The elbow is in your mouth and it melts in your mouth.

"It tastes much better too!" Professor Chen added.

Everyone stretched out their chopsticks.

The guests on the first floor were gradually filling up. Jiang Feng and Wang Hao were a little busy. Qiu Chen and the other four were ready to pay and help out.

"You can get a 10% discount by sending the CD to Moments." Jiang Feng reminded.

"Can you get a 10% discount on CDs?" The girl in the young couple sitting not far from Qiu Chen heard it with sharp ears. The plates on her table were as clean as if they had been licked, except for a little water spinach left on one plate. The vegetable juice, even the syrupy sauce of the sweet and sour pork was gone.

She couldn't control it just now and ordered another stir-fried water spinach.

Not only did she reveal her appetite, but she also ate several days' worth of food in one meal. She was sitting in her seat feeling distressed.

"Yes, college student A can get a 10% discount by sending a CD to Moments." Jiang Feng nodded.

"I'm from University A, majoring in Chinese. If you don't believe me, I brought my student ID card!" the girl said quickly, taking a look at the four clean plates on Qiu Chen's table, and cruelly picked up the empty plate with vegetable juice. Just drink it all.

Jiang Feng:...

This girl really has a personality.

Putting down the plate, the girl took out her mobile phone and started taking photos to post on her friends circle.
