Life is a Game

Chapter 17 Sour Plum Soup

When it was time for dinner, more and more people entered the store. Some, like Qiu Chen, got the news early to support Jiang Feng, and some, like the young couple, just entered the store out of curiosity.

Those who knew Jiang Feng well, no matter how ugly their faces were after reading the menu, they would sit down with dignity and finish the cup of refreshing sour plum soup to melt away the dissatisfaction and heat in their hearts.

Those who entered by mistake, those who chose to stay like young couples were only a few, and most of them looked at the customers in the store in surprise, whispered "black shop", and slipped away as quickly as if the soles of their feet were oiled.

"How many times have you left?" Qiu Chen and the four of them still did not forget their responsibilities as actors after they were full of wine and food. It was obviously uncomfortable to sit, but they still stuck to their seats and pretended to be waiting for food.

The four plates on the table were as clean as if they had been licked, and even the soup was used to bibimbap without any waste.

"It's the sixth one." Li Jian from the Chinese Department counted carefully, "It's so pitiful to leave 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 before dinner, most of the guests on the first floor were already full, and he couldn't help feeling a little worried.

"School has not started yet, and the price of the food at Brother Feng's restaurant is so high that it is almost full. When school starts, why don't we grab a seat if we want to come and eat?"

The other three also felt threatened.

"Why don't we come to eat at night?" the wealthy Liu Zixuan 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 were facing the door, and when they saw the person at the door, they stood up immediately.

"Hello, Professor Wang!"

"Hello, Teacher Li!"

"Hello, Professor Chen!"

"Department... Dean, hello!"

The 9 members of the group are all teachers from the physics department, and 4 of them have only met Liu Zixuan and Qiu Chen.

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

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

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

As soon as I walked in, I found that most of them were students from the Department of Physics. Several professors were stunned, and almost everyone could find the students they had taught.

"Well, where are the students from our physics department having dinner here today?" Professor Wang, who is always serious, couldn't help but joked when he saw this situation.

"This is a store opened by my family. On the first day of opening, everyone came to support me. Teachers, please go upstairs. There are boxes and round tables upstairs. Teachers, do you want to go to the box?" Jiang Feng walked in front to lead the way.

"If you don't need a box, then we are here to cheer you on." Professor Chen said with a smile.

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

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

For students only, the price of the dishes in the Healthy Stir-Fry Restaurant is a bit expensive, but the salaries and benefits of the teachers at University A are good. This kind of price is very reasonable when paired with such a thick menu.

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

The professors were also polite, and ordered some vegetables and several big dishes, including sweet and sour carp and Dongpo elbow.

Jiang Feng and Wang Hao brought up the sour plum soup. Jiang Feng glanced at the menu and saw that there was nothing wrong, so he went to the back kitchen to inform Comrade Jiang Jiankang.

Jiang Jiankang stewed two elbows. He originally planned to eat them himself, one for lunch and one for dinner. Now that the professors ordered it, he could only wrong Comrade Jiang Jiankang to eat one less. The carp was even more coincidental. Yesterday, Jiang Jiankang went to the small vegetable market behind the wholesale market according to what Jiang Feng said, and met two very fresh live carp from the seafood hawker, so he bought them first and raised them.

I didn't expect to let one of them go to the pot today.

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

"Whatever you drink is delicious." Professor Li is a native of Yanjing, and he is the most authoritative spokesperson for sour plum soup among all the teachers. "Nowadays, sour plum soup is bought in supermarkets and mixed with additives. Unlike when we were young, we all boiled it with rock sugar, but this court drink has to be smoked..."

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

The faint smoky taste is the same as those old shops that mainly sell sour plum soup that he drank when he was a child.

No, maybe better.

"What was smoked?" Professor Chen asked.

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

"Jiang Feng, that kid's professional class is not good, he almost failed last semester." Professor Chen took another sip from his cup, "I think this cup of sour plum soup is already delicious."

"This is the authentic way of the court. It is boiled slowly with rock sugar." Professor Li was a little dazed, as if thinking of something, "I haven't had such an authentic sour plum soup for a long time since those old shops closed."

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

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

These two elbows were carefully selected by Jiang Jiankang from all the vegetable markets and supermarkets near A University from hundreds of elbows. Soak it in ice water for twelve hours just to get rid of the smell of blood, even the elbows on the meal last night didn't have this treatment.

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

In order to make a good elbow, he asked people to find good Huadiao wine everywhere, just to use it as an auxiliary material for the elbow.

Jiang Jiankang was in the kitchen, while sadly taking out his treasured Huadiao wine and pouring it into the pot, while chanting: "Xiaofeng, if it wasn't for you, Dad wouldn't have brought out such a good Huadiao wine."

Jiang Feng: ...

Comrade Jiang Jiankang always looked like he was dying every time a guest ordered his elbow, obviously he had hidden hundreds of bottles of Huadiao wine himself.

The Huadiao wine he serves to his guests is always the worst.

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

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

The broth dilutes the sauce on the elbow, but it also enhances the umami and aroma. When Jiang Feng walked out with the elbow in his hand, almost all the guests on the first floor looked sideways at him.

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

Although heartbroken, no one nodded.

Everyone is a student, and few of them are willing to spend hundreds of yuan to order an elbow.

The scent wafted all the way up to the second floor.

"What's the smell?" Professor Chen felt his index finger twitch when he smelled it.

"Dongpo's elbow, teachers, use it slowly." Jiang Feng put the elbow on the table.

"Mr. Chen, this Dongpo elbow is a famous dish in your house, but you still can't smell it?" Another young teacher joked.

"This is not Dongpo's elbow. Our Dongpo's elbow is not made in this way." Professor Chen shook his head, and stretched out his chopsticks to pick up a piece of elbow with fleshy skin. "It may be their own method in their shop, just called Dongpo. Elbow, this plate of elbow is much more fragrant than ordinary Dongpo elbow."

The entrance of the elbow, the entrance is instant.

"It's much more delicious!" 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 bit too busy, and Qiu Chen and the others were ready to check out and help out.

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

"Can I get a 10% discount on the CD?" The girl among the young lovers sitting not far from Qiu Chen heard it sharply. The plates on her table were also as clean as if they had been licked, except that there was some water spinach left on one plate. The vegetable juice, even the syrup juice of the sweet and sour pork tenderloin is gone.

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

Not only did she expose her appetite, but she also ate up the food money for several days in one meal, and she was sitting in her seat feeling distressed.

"Yes, college student a can get a 10% discount for posting to Moments with the CD." Jiang Feng nodded.

"I'm from A University, from the Department of Chinese. Don't believe me, I brought my student ID card!" The girl said quickly, and glanced at the four clean plates on Qiu Chen's table. She was cruel and picked up the empty plate with vegetable juice on it. Just gulp it down.

Jiang Feng: ...

This girl has a real personality.

Putting down the plate, the girl took out her phone and started taking pictures and sending them to Moments.

"Ding, gain 1 point of popularity, mission progress (2/100)."
