But the seven sisters never dreamed that the mortal before them was the real master.
The Riverside Park was particularly lively at night, with people everywhere. The bright lights and the nightlife looked very pleasing to the eyes. Zhang Fan decided to go out for a midnight snack, but before he left the house, he saw Hua Yueying following him.
"Where are you going, Mr. Zhang? Is it on the way?"
Ever since the Seventh Sisters came, Hua Yueying has been calling him Mr. Zhang in public.
This was also what Zhang Fan requested, because he didn't want everyone to know that he was the lord that they were so in awe of.
Because Zhang Fan had a feeling that if the seven sisters knew that he was the master.
He suspected that his small yard would be flattened by them. Maybe when he was sleeping at night, a beautiful woman would crawl out of his bed, maybe without even any clothes on.
In order to avoid this situation, Zhang Fan also wanted to keep a low profile, so he asked Hua Yueying to call him Mr. Zhang.
Since Hua Yueying wanted to follow him, Zhang Fan did not object. He took Hua Yueying out, but after taking a few steps, he saw Xu Zijun also running out.
"Brother Zhang, you guys are going out. I'll drive you. Take me with you. I'm familiar with the roads in Jiangcheng. Just shout if you want to go somewhere..."
Xu Zijun was very enthusiastic. In fact, he had been staying in Chen Garden for several days and wanted to go out for a walk. When he saw Zhang Fan moving, he hurriedly followed him.
Afraid of falling behind.
"Let's see if there are any delicious midnight snacks in Jiangcheng. Let's go and try something new!"
Zhang Fan was also hungry at this time, so he went out to get something delicious.
"Okay, I'm most familiar with Jiangcheng's restaurants. I'll take Brother Zhang to a great place, a place you'd never expect. It's just that the environment is a little shabby, but the taste is amazing. Their fried rice is the best in Jiangcheng and even in the whole country..."
Xu Zijun actually recommended a kind of egg fried rice to Zhang Fan?
However, the dishes cooked by Xu Zijun were all very delicious, and Zhang Fan was looking forward to all the good things he said.
They drove quickly to a small alley on the other side of the river beach. The location was not particularly good, as it was surrounded by old buildings that looked somewhat dilapidated. There were seven or eight simple tables on the dark ground.
The tables were packed and there were people standing in line.
After Xu Zijun parked the car, he greeted the busy boss, and actually moved a table and chairs from somewhere, and then found a slightly cleaner place to put them down.
He went to get three more stools. His actions made many diners waiting in line to eat stare with their eyes wide open, and some even called out "boss".
"Lao Shi, do you have any extra tables and chairs? We can add another table here..."
"It's gone, it's gone, Xiao Xu just moved the dining table out of my house!"
The boss who was frying flower rice was a fat man who looked to be in his fifties or sixties, with a shaved head and a big smile. He was none other than Lao Shi, the owner of this restaurant.
This unknown little restaurant without even a sign is called Lao Shi BBQ Restaurant. Its main dish is barbecued cold dishes, and it also serves some snacks such as fried rice and rice noodle soup.
Lao Shi has run his shop here for almost 30 years, and all his customers are repeat customers. Xu Zijun is very familiar with his house, so familiar with it that even if there is no table available, he just moves the dining table from his house to use.
"Lao Shi, I want three servings of fried rice with egg. You can take care of the rest. You can order a little of each..."
Xu Zijun shouted to the boss, and Lao Shi agreed. Zhang Fan was invited to the table by Xu Zijun, and he was busy serving water, pouring tea and wiping the table for Zhang Fan.
"Brother Zhang, please bear with me for a moment. Lao Shi's business is so good. Look, there are more than a dozen people waiting for a table over there. It would be great if we could at least have a place to sit..."
Xu Zijun smiled and wiped the table three or four times with toilet paper before it felt a little cleaner.
The group of people waiting in line over there were all looking at their table with envy. They didn't have to queue or wait for a table. It was really enviable!
The air was filled with the aroma of various spices and meat, mixed with the aroma of eggs, which made Zhang Fan, who was sitting there, feel hungry.
He saw Old Shitou making a plate of fried rice with egg. The rice was wrapped in golden eggs. The rice grains were rolling in the pan, being heated evenly, and each grain of rice was covered with egg liquid.
As the temperature of the flame rose, the eggs and rice were fried in the hot oil in the pot with a crackling sound. Old Shi shook the big pot of fried rice with his wrist, and it kept rolling.
Add pepper and other seasonings, and when taking the dish out of the heat, sprinkle a handful of chopped green onions. The chopped green onions will fall on the steaming egg fried rice, and it will instantly become fragrant!
By the time three large plates of egg fried rice were brought over, Zhang Fan could clearly hear a lot of swallowing sounds around him.
The steaming egg fried rice was golden in color and dotted with green chopped green onions. Each grain of rice was full of egg juice and exuded an enticing aroma. Xu Zijun also brought a bowl of pickled vegetables.
The thin golden pickles have a bit of chili in them.
"This is a pickled vegetable made by the Laoshi family. It tastes great. Brother Zhang, you guys should try it!"
Xu Zijun enthusiastically recommended Lao Shi's handmade pickled vegetables. Zhang Fan took a bite and found it sour and a little spicy. He then took a bite of the egg fried rice and found the taste just right, especially comfortable and satisfying.
tasty!
Zhang Fan smiled and gave Xu Zijun a thumbs up, which made Xu Zijun smile with joy.
"Even though their fried rice is simple, it's the best in Jiangcheng. Only regular customers and people who have eaten it know about it. Look, there are more people queuing over there..."
Lao Shi came over with some barbecue and a bowl of soup, and there were about 10 to 20 people waiting in line at first, but now there are already 40 to 50 people, and after these people arrived.
It seemed that they were accustomed to queuing, so they just waited there with their phones in hand until a table became available.
The restaurant here is not big, but it is very popular. Soon, many people gathered and waited for a table.
Zhang Fan and his friends could eat as soon as they arrived, which aroused the envy of many people. Some people even waited for them to finish their meal so that they could use the table and chairs to eat.
Because there were so many people gathered here, a woman carrying shoe-shining tools soon came over.
"Sir, would you like your shoes shined? Ten dollars a time!"
Some people shook their heads, some felt bored and just waited, it would be nice to wipe their shoes at the same time.
In this way, people who were eating, waiting and having their shoes shined all gathered outside this small shop. Xu Zijun looked at the woman who was shining shoes and couldn't help but speak.
"Aunt Zhang, your little treasure is already working, why are you still working so hard?"
