After waiting for a while, the stir-fried three fresh dishes were served first.
The weather was cold, and Chen Weiguo was afraid that the dishes would get cold soon. He quickly called out to Old Man Fang," Eat it while it's hot. Nowadays, the dishes get cold very quickly."”
The state-owned restaurant had a large portion of food, but the two men took a bite each and soon ate half of it.
After all, it had been almost half an hour since they had eaten. They were really hungry.
The stir-fried three fresh vegetables were easy to digest and did not occupy their stomachs. The two of them ate a few more mouthfuls and also reduced the burden on their stomachs. It was quite comfortable.
As soon as they had their fill, the Beijing Sauce Shredded Pork and Sauce Beef were served.
The Beijing Sauce Shredded Pork was different from many flatbread in the future. Here, thousands of pieces were used. The handmade thousands of pieces were very tough. When bitten, they were filled with the sweetness of soy products. Chen Weiguo could eat three pieces in one go.
The spiced beef was cut into square slices and neatly arranged on the plate. It was accompanied by a small plate of soy sauce and a few cloves of garlic.
He took a bite of the garlic, ate a bite of the beef, clinked glasses, and drank half a glass of white wine. His limbs and bones were warm and harmonious. This blissful taste made Old Man Fang squint his eyes.
When the two bowls of full, snow-white dumplings were served, Old Man Fang's stomach, which had already been appeased, squirmed again. He was about to drool.
The dumplings made by the rich and strong fans were really different. They were so white! The light yellow dumpling soup was sprinkled with green onions, making the dumplings even more delicious.
Old Man Fang scooped one up and took a bite. The meat filling in the dumplings was very tough. The fat was stored in the dumpling skin. Once he bit it, it flowed into his mouth along the opening. The thick meat fragrance mixed with the onion fragrance made people feel relaxed all over their bodies.
His family was talkative and usually had to eat sparingly. The meat dumplings were only good food during the holidays, so he wolfed down three of them in one go.
"Station Chief Fang, there's no rush to eat the staple food. Let's eat the vegetables first!”
The pork knuckle in soy sauce was served, and Chen Weiguo gave Old Man Fang a big piece of meat with his chopsticks.
The pork knuckle was first fried and then steamed in a steamer. Then, it was stewed in water. The meat was stewed until it was very mushy. With a gentle flick of the chopsticks, the meat was easily separated from the bone. The piece of meat that was medium-sized in fat and lean was shining with an alluring oily luster.
Before Chen Weiguo came here, he didn't like to eat greasy food. He felt that it was too fat and greasy.
Only in this era did they know the fragrance of soy sauce pork knuckles!
Especially that layer of elastic skin!
Sometimes, when Chen Weiguo was craving for food, he would buy a steamed bun with white flour, cut it in the middle, and add a large piece of sauce pork knuckle with skin to eat. This was what it meant to eat to his heart's content! It was much more delicious than the roujiamos in the future!
Old Man Fang took a big bite of the pork leg, and his mouth was full of oil. It was beautiful.
The two of them ate and drank until their stomachs were about to burst. Only then did they reluctantly put down their chopsticks.
"Look at you, Chief Fang. You haven't even eaten half of the dumplings!”
Chen Weiguo saw that there were still ten dumplings at the bottom of Old Man Fang's bowl!
There were at least fifteen dumplings in a bowl, and he had finished them all. Why did Old Man Fang only eat so little?
Old Man Fang smiled embarrassedly." I just wanted to bring it back for my grandchildren to have extra meals.”
The dishes on the table were for the two of them to eat together, so he was too embarrassed to take them away. The dumplings were his own. If he ate less, he could give his grandchildren two more.
Chen Weiguo was stunned when he heard that. He suddenly thought of his grandfather.
In his later life, Chen Weiguo lived with his grandparents for a long time. His grandfather would leave a portion of any delicious food for him, just like Station Chief Fang.
At that time, he did not understand why his grandfather was always so thrifty. Now that he was really living in his grandfather's era, he finally understood how difficult it was for his grandfather.
What a strong man he was to be able to support an entire family with a large population.
Chen Weiguo walked to the counter and whispered to the waiter. Then, he returned to the dining table and put the leftovers and dumplings into two large lunch boxes with Station Chief Fang.
Just as he was about to leave, the waiter caught up with him with a metal box."The dumplings you ordered are ready. Why are you in such a hurry to leave? Don't forget to wash the lunchboxes and send them back! Otherwise, I won't refund your deposit!”
Chen Weiguo took the lunch box with a smile and said to the waiter," Okay, thank you, Sis! I'll get it back for you tomorrow!"
"Kid, you're so sweet!" The waitress, who was over 50 years old, smiled gorgeously. She was very satisfied with the title of big sister.
Chen Weiguo turned around and handed the lunch box to Old Man Fang.
That's right, he had just left his seat to order another serving of dumplings for Old Man Fang.
"Take it and eat it yourself. I've already packed it!”
Old Man Fang was unwilling to accept it.
The leftovers that he had just packed were all good things. Xiao Chen had already let him hold them. Now, he definitely could not take this dumpling anymore.
" Station Chief Fang, this isn't for you," Chen Weiguo said seriously." This is for your grandchildren."”
Commander Fang hesitated.
Chen Weiguo continued," My grandfather used to like to bring me food too. Station Chief Fang, you remind me of my grandfather.”
Old Man Fang knew about Chen Weiguo's family situation. Other than his uncle, this child had no other relatives! She was missing someone else through him!
Old Man Fang's heart softened. He really felt sorry for this child. Usually, he spent money extravagantly. Wasn't it a way to vent his emotions?
If Chen Weiguo knew what Station Chief Fang was thinking, he would probably laugh out loud.
He usually only wanted to eat well and use well, but he had never thought about anything else.
After all, he had a house and a bicycle. He didn't lack anything. He didn't need to save money at all. Why would he keep the money if he didn't spend it?
Moreover, his golden finger had already fished up gold bars and precious space rings for him. In the future, as long as he had food in his hands, he could run to Pigeon City to exchange for money. He did not have to worry about not having money to use.
There was no need for him to control his spending! Whatever he wanted, he could just buy it!
In the end, Old Man Fang took the dumplings. Before he left, he patted Chen Weiguo's shoulder." Just treat me as your family. If anything happens, come and find me. I can help you!"”
Old Man Fang said this with confidence. The words of a grain station chief carried some weight in this era.
Chen Weiguo knew that Station Chief Fang had completely taken him as one of his own. He smiled brightly and nodded vigorously." Yes!”
