The hotel we stayed in was well decorated, and there were some farmhouses nearby where we could eat. This might be because there is a hot spring tourist area nearby, and these consumption places were created for the convenience of tourists.
Nie Qing didn't check in with the other two because he didn't have an ID card. So he could only sit in the hotel lobby and wait, feeling wronged.
There were men and women in swimsuits walking in and out of the hotel. Seeing them chatting and laughing, looking normal, Nie Qing couldn't help but blush and wonder: Has the world become so corrupt now? Men can come out in just their underwear, and the women are wearing only tops, their bellies showing...
The hotel front desk staff couldn't help but give Lu Hao and Su Jin a second look, noticing they were clearly together and had booked two rooms. "Hmm, a handsome man and a beautiful woman, a match made in heaven. They didn't even share a room, which is really rare these days."
The two took the room card and went to the lounge area to find Nie Qing. They saw Nie Qing, with a red face, chatting with a beautiful woman in a swimsuit wrapped in a bath towel.
"You are a good master," Su Jin said to Lu Hao with a smile.
Lu Hao: “…”
The beautiful woman in swimsuit was also sitting here waiting for someone. When she saw an older man who was also sitting in the rest area looking at her with a red face, she found it interesting and started chatting with him casually.
When Nie Qing saw that his apprentice and Su Jin had finally come back to look for him, he quickly stood up and ran over. At the end, he said "Sorry" to the beautiful woman in the swimsuit.
Beauty in swimsuit: What does that mean? Did I offend him?
"Uncle Nie, this is your room card." Su Jin handed the room card to Nie Qing.
"What is a room card?" Nie Qing asked with his head tilted, holding the thin card in his hand.
"It's equivalent to the key of an ancient inn?" Lu Hao explained.
"Oh, I see. Shall we go to the guest room first?" Nie Qing asked.
"Let's go out and eat something first. We haven't eaten anything all day." Su Jin touched his flat belly.
"Okay, okay. I haven't tasted tea and food outside the mountain for a long time. Let's go now." Nie Qing's eyes lit up immediately when he heard about eating.
Su Jin covered her mouth and laughed secretly. Nie Qing's personality was really to their liking.
The three of them came to a farm house called "Yunlaike". Because he didn't know whether the food in this restaurant was delicious or not, Su Jin directly ordered a few special dishes on the menu: bamboo tube meatballs, galangal chicken, stuffed tofu, carp soup, and a plate of stir-fried vegetables.
"Uncle, are there any dishes that you are allergic to?" Su Jin asked.
"No, I eat everything," Nie Qing replied as he studied the dishes sealed with disposable plastic wrap on the table. Lu Hao took the trouble to explain, and told him that they also had the custom of washing dishes with tea before meals.
Nie Qing, who was about to drink the tea in the cup, said: "So this is the water used for washing dishes. What a close call, what a close call..."
The four dishes and one soup were served quickly. The one that smelled the most fragrant was the ginger chicken. Lu Hao took apart two chicken legs, put one in front of Su Jin first, and gave the other to Nie Qing.
The chicken thighs were tender and flavorful, with a hint of ginger that perfectly masked the fishy smell. Su Jin sampled several other dishes and, undeniably, the food was truly delicious. The bamboo tube meatballs looked incredibly appetizing, made from chopped meat rolled into balls and steamed, garnished with sauce and chopped green onions. The stuffed tofu was crispy on the outside, tender on the inside, and brimming with meat. The carp soup was white, yet not greasy. Su Jin took a sip and was filled with a lingering aftertaste. Even the stir-fried vegetables were incredibly crisp.
Nie Qing's cheeks were bulging from eating. What a divine delicacy this was, he had never tasted it before in the mountains.
"Uncle Nie, do you usually cook for yourself in the mountains?" Su Jin asked curiously.
"My Xiaofen helps me cook, but one time Xiaofen burned both of her legs while cooking, and since then I have mostly eaten fruits." Xiaofen is the wooden puppet in pink clothes that Su Jin and the others saw.
What a miserable wooden puppet!
Lu Hao suddenly felt that this master was too pitiful, as he could hardly even have a decent meal. He couldn't help but pick up two more meatballs for Nie Qing. Su Jin also took Nie Qing's soup bowl and poured him a bowl of fish soup.
Seeing Nie Qing eating with great satisfaction, the two smiled at each other, thinking that they had really found a living treasure.
The three of them returned to the hotel. Both rooms were on the 8th floor, so they had to take the elevator up.
Nie Qing, riding an elevator for the first time: "I felt like I was about to ascend to heaven..."
After getting out of the elevator, they found the two rooms they had booked. Lu Hao first taught Nie Qing how to use the room card to open the door and get electricity, as well as how to use the TV, telephone, shower and toiletries in the room.
Nie Qing was amazed. Is life for modern people so convenient?
After teaching Nie Qing, Lu Hao told him that if he had any problems, he could call them on the landline. Then he helped Nie Qing close the door and returned to his and Su Jin's room.
Su Jin was lying on the head of the bed answering the phone. It was his uncle Lin Cheng calling.
It turned out that my uncle and aunt had also made a great purchase today. They went to the grain and oil wholesale market together to buy some supplies, and Su's parents went to the clothing store to wholesale a lot of clothes. The first floor of their rented warehouse was almost full, and they planned to rent a forklift tomorrow to move some of the goods from the first floor to the second floor.
After Su Jin finished chatting with his uncle, he hung up the phone. It seemed that they also had to hurry up.
After expressing her feelings, Su Jin looked at Lu Hao sitting in the recliner and looking at her, and suddenly had a bad feeling.
"Lu Hao, go take a shower first."
"Wash together"
"No, you wash first, I'll go to the space to take a look." Su Jin, who was determined not to be fooled, disappeared in front of Lu Hao in an instant.
