Chapter 481 Breakfast is important


Chapter 481 Breakfast is important

Early in the morning of the second day, Jiang Feng had just gotten up and started brushing his teeth. Ji Xia took the soy milk, fried dough sticks and steamed buns that she had just bought at the gate of the community and started knocking on Jiang Feng's door.

It was obviously a rare holiday, but Jiang Feng had to get up early as usual when he went to work. When he heard the knock on the door, he even had a rebellious heart: Forget it, I don't want this apprentice anymore, and go back to sleep.

Of course, this rebellious heart was instantly crushed when he saw the soy milk, fried dough sticks and steamed buns in Ji Xia's hands.

I bought the soy milk from a noodle shop in the alley after turning right when I left the community. The cuttlefish powder in this shop is particularly delicious, and the soy milk tastes very mellow. If Jiang Feng got up early, he would go to this shop with Wu Minqi, and each would order a bowl of cuttlefish powder, coupled with a hot cup of soy milk with half a spoon of sugar, and a happy day would begin.

However, since Jiang Feng had very limited times to get up early, the opportunities to kick things off were also few and far between.

Compared with the soy milk, which is very particular, the fried dough sticks and steamed buns are much inferior. They were bought at the only steamed bun shop still open in front of the community, and the taste is generally not outstanding.

This was the first time that Ji Xia helped Jiang Feng and Wu Minqi buy breakfast. It was not because Ji Xia got up late, but because she had no money. Ji Xia usually asks Jiang Feng for money to buy whatever he wants to eat. Occasionally, he has some private money that he has secretly saved and is reluctant to spend it. He doesn't even look for the right opportunity to sneak out to buy roasted sweet potatoes or fried chicken tenders. Jiang Feng refused to let her eat.

Ji Xia just received a red envelope of 666 yuan yesterday, and this morning he spent a huge amount of money (16.6 yuan) to buy breakfast for Jiang Feng and Wu Minqi, which greatly moved Jiang Feng.

"Master, please brush your teeth quickly and then go change clothes. Sister Wu has already packed up. Why are you still brushing your teeth?" Ji Xia put the breakfast on the dining table and urged Jiang Feng to brush his teeth, wash his face and change clothes quickly.

Jiang Feng was urged by Ji Xia to move faster, and five minutes later he walked out of the bedroom radiantly. Jiang Feng put on a turtleneck sweater that best highlighted his figure and handsomeness. He was also holding a coat that he just bought last month. It didn't have much effect on cold protection and warmth, but it could create a concave shape.

There was a red envelope prepared for Ji Xia in the coat pocket.

The last time he went shopping with his apprentice before the year before, Jiang Feng naturally had to make a shining appearance in his most handsome appearance.

Jiang Feng felt that if Ji Xia hadn't pressed him too hard, he could have gone to the bathroom to fix his hair in front of the mirror.

Ji Xia didn't notice the difference in Jiang Feng's appearance. All she could think about now was donkey meat: "Master, last night Master Wang told me that there was a shop selling donkey meat in the alley on the street where I was going to buy it. The roasted ones are particularly delicious.”

"Master Wang said that today is the last day of the new year for the store to open. The boss will go back to his hometown tomorrow. There must be a lot of people. We have to go early or we won't be able to eat if we get there late."

Jiang Feng looked at the breakfast on the table and silently raised a question mark in his mind.

"Let's go out." Jiang Feng said and walked towards the door.

"Master, breakfast is on the dining table. I just went to the door to buy it for you and it's still hot." Ji Xia reminded.

How could Jiang Feng eat steamed buns and fried dough sticks when donkey meat was on fire? Jiang Feng picked up the two cups of soy milk on the table and handed one of them to Wu Minqi: "Just drink the soy milk to warm yourself up. It's too troublesome to eat steamed buns and fried dough sticks with your hands, isn't it? Xia Xia, are you in a hurry to buy donkey meat and burn it? Master won’t waste your time. It’s the same thing if you leave breakfast for midnight snack.”

Wu Minqi took the soy milk without exposing Jiang Feng's little thoughts. Who told her that she also wanted to eat donkey meat on fire instead of eating steamed buns and fried dough sticks.

"Fengfeng, aren't you wearing a down jacket? This coat shouldn't keep you warm. I saw the weather forecast yesterday and today's temperature is quite low. It's probably already below zero outside now." Wu Minqi reminded.

Wu Minqi is afraid of the cold, and all concave shapes are like paper tigers in front of her. Even though she was still in the house, she was already fully equipped with a hat, a mask, a scarf, and a military coat and a lot of down jackets of the same style, wrapping herself even more tightly than Ji Xia who had just come in from outside.

"It's just below freezing, not too cold. When I was in junior high school, all the boys in our class wore short-sleeved shirts in the winter." Jiang Feng silently pretended to be cool and opened the door coolly.

The north wind was howling, and the biting cold wind rushed into the house when the door opened. Jiang Feng had only half stepped out of the house and was already shivering from the cold.

"I'll get the down jacket." Jiang forced Wang to flee.

A minute later, Jiang Feng came out wearing a down jacket of the same style as Wu Minqi's, holding the red envelope he had stuffed in his coat pocket.

"Xia Xia, take it." Jiang Feng stuffed the red envelope into Ji Xia's hand, "This is the New Year's red envelope that master gave you. If you can't see it during the Chinese New Year, give it to you before. Part of it is your original salary, and the rest is It’s all the New Year’s money given to you by Master.”

Ji Xia happily took the red envelope, thought about it and stuffed it into his pocket, then suddenly knelt down towards Jiang Feng, as if he wanted to kowtow to Jiang Feng.

Jiang Feng, who had never kowtowed to or been kowtowed to by anyone since he was a child, was startled. He knelt down and faced Ji Xia on the spot, and then pulled Ji Xia up from the ground.

Ji Xia was a little unhappy when Jiang Feng pulled her up: "Master, my mother-in-law said that during the Chinese New Year, the master has to kowtow when he gives red envelopes to his apprentices."

Although Jiang Feng has always longed to be a capitalist who deprives working people, it does not mean that he longs to be kowtowed to by working people. He quickly told Ji Xia Kepu to change his past: "What your mother-in-law knows is from the old almanac decades ago. Now The practice of kowtowing has long ceased to be popular. Just make a New Year greeting call during the Chinese New Year. ”

Ji Xia, who had gained new knowledge, nodded thoughtfully.

After a lot of fussing, the three of them finally went downstairs and headed towards the donkey meat barbecue restaurant that Ji Xia knew.

After leaving the main entrance of the community, the three of them walked towards the subway station. Jiang Feng suddenly remembered that the day when he went to Wu Minqi's house to attend Wu Minqi's third cousin's engagement party was after the Little New Year, which in a sense was considered to be during the Chinese New Year.

"Qiqi, does your family have any special etiquette during the Chinese New Year? For example, when the junior gives new year's money to the junior, the junior has to kowtow?" Jiang Feng asked.

"Specially particular?" Wu Minqi thought for a while, then pulled the scarf down to reveal her mouth, "Does it count that the juniors are competing to test their cooking skills?"

Jiang Feng was shocked that the Wu family was so hard-core during the Chinese New Year and could actually turn a lively and festive day into a year-end assessment meeting.

"Is this a competition between juniors like us?" Jiang Feng asked.

Wu Minqi shook her head: "For all the younger generations, including my father and uncle's generation, my grandfather is the judge of the competition among peers. The winner can eat the boiled cabbage and shredded radish cakes made by my grandfather."

"Shredded radish cake?" Jiang Feng has some differences. Although the name of the dish sounds very equal, and radish and cabbage belong to the same family, the difference between boiled cabbage and shredded radish cake is not a little bit different. It can't be described as one in the sky and one on the earth. Pass.

The former is a famous dish at state banquets, while the latter is a street snack. Although there is no distinction between high and low in food and high in craftsmanship, when these two dishes are put together, I always feel that boiled cabbage is much nobler than shredded radish cake.

At least boiled cabbage is not just cabbage in addition to boiling water, and shredded radish cake is really only pancake except shredded radish.

"My grandpa's shredded radish pancakes are particularly delicious. Regular diners at Wu's Restaurant know that they are one of the best white snacks made by my grandpa." Wu Minqi explained, "It turns out that grandpa's physical strength is not bad. When he was a child, he dedicated an acre of land in my yard to growing radishes. He always felt that the radishes bought from outside were not as juicy as those grown by himself.”

Jiang Feng:...

I didn’t expect Mr. Wu to have this hobby secretly.

Jiang Feng and Wu Minqi walked and chatted all the way, and before they knew it, they arrived at the subway station.

Ji Xia reported the address of the store to Jiang Feng. Jiang Feng opened the mobile app and uninstalled it several times. However, because he couldn't find a more convenient one, he had to uninstall and download the navigation app again and start looking for routes.

"Oh, this store is good. No need to transfer, it's direct to Line 4." Jiang Feng highly praised all routes that don't require transfer.

"Master, what time is it now?" Ji Xia asked.

"8:03."

"Then we have to hurry up. This store opens at 8:30. If you go there late, you will have to queue for a long time." Ji Xia pulled Jiang Feng and Wu Minqi towards Line 4.

Jiang Feng didn't realize until he got on the subway that something was wrong. Today's plot was wrong from the beginning.

The original plot was that Xia Xia finally made a small amount of money after studying hard and working hard, and decided to repay her mother-in-law before the year before, so she went out to buy the things she thought her mother-in-law would like so that she could bring them to her mother-in-law when she returned. Show filial piety.

This is a touching and educational drama about returning home and repaying family affection.

No matter how bad it is, it should be that the rebellious girl Ji Xia ran away from home and found her way back, working hard and finally making a little money. On the occasion of returning to her hometown during the Chinese New Year, she brought her big and small bags home to show the villagers that she was no longer the ignorant girl who was ignored by her parents, had no education and achieved nothing, and had a slim future. She was inspirational and full of hope. A reversal of the annual drama of pretending to be slapped in the face.

But now, the original plot has changed beyond recognition, and it has become a food drama in which three people go to an old donkey meat barbecue restaurant that will not be open tomorrow to eat donkey meat barbecue.

"Xia Xia, aren't we going to go to the street with you today to buy the things you will bring to your mother-in-law when you get home tomorrow?" Jiang Feng asked.

"Yes, Master, haven't you had breakfast yet? I haven't had breakfast either. Let's go to that shop to eat donkey meat and burn it, and then buy donkey meat for my mother-in-law to roll around in." Ji Xia's words were reasonable and well-founded. Convincing.

Jiang Feng was convinced on the spot.

"Yes, breakfast is important, eat breakfast first." (End of Chapter)
