Chapter 65: I was so hungry that I forgot to take care of my handsome image
Taozhi Fugong was diverted to another topic and shook her head: "She hasn't woken up yet. The doctor said she might have to wait until night time. She tossed and turned for too long and finally fell asleep."
So she just sat next to him and didn't disturb others.
Xie Yan nodded and looked at the time: "It's time to eat."
Taozhi touched her belly and said, "Indeed."
It's already around noon.
"Let's go eat something." Xie Yan walked side by side with her, resisting the urge to hold her hand.
㱗In a crowded place, men and women holding hands will always attract a lot of attention.
It doesn't matter if he is thick-skinned, but his young wife is shy.
The two walked on the street, and Xie Yan took her into a small alley.
Some old ladies make pancakes in the alleys, wrapping the pancakes with vegetable leaves and shredded potatoes, and they taste really good.
Taozhi has been following him. This is her first time here.
There are too many places in the county town that she is not familiar with.
Xie Yan explained to her, "This place is called Yangjiaba. It's the place with the most food in our county, but everyone sells it secretly. You can usually eat as much as you want with a few tickets, but if you have money, you can pay."
㱗In this day and age, even if you have money, you don’t know how to spend it.
Rich people generally invest in state-owned enterprises, or cooperate with the state to fund schools, etc.
These old folks can only exchange things secretly even if they have money.
Xie Yan took Taozhi to a small place where many people were sitting.
He looked at the old lady and said, "Give me thirty wraps. Fry the potatoes and shredded radish until they're cooked through."
"Okay." The old lady spread the pancake dough skillfully.
Others don't mind, but my wife doesn't like eating potatoes that are a little raw.
Several times, the fried potatoes in the cafeteria were not cooked enough, so she threw them into her own bowl.
He insisted, otherwise she would feed the geese.
Taozhi sat next to the small table. It was her first time to eat this.
Xie Yan picked up some pickled vegetables, pickled radish, and secret chili peppers with ease.
He smiled and said, "It's free."
He picked through the chopsticks in the chopstick cage, selected a pair of very white ones for her, and then took a pair for himself at random: "This radish is delicious. Every time I come here, I almost eat a whole bucket."
Taozhi looked at Xie Yan with a smile and tasted a small piece of radish: "It's really good."
It's sour, pickled and very appetizing.
Xie Yan's face showed a bit of pampering: "Isn't it."
He knew she would like it too.
"Here they are." The old lady put all the burritos on the table and said, "Young man, is this your girlfriend?"
The old lady looked at Taozhi with a smile.
Xie Yan said proudly: "Yes, my boyfriend, we are getting married tomorrow."
Taozhi nodded slightly at her: "Hello, mother-in-law."
The old lady smiled and said, "Hello! This young man usually comes here alone before, so I was a little surprised. You two are really a perfect match."
Taozhi smiled back at her: "Thank you, mother-in-law."
After she finished speaking, she went downstairs. Xie Yan smiled and told Taozhi how to eat the burrito.
"Put the dough in the palm of your hand, then wrap the vegetables in the dough and roll it up, like this—"
He stuffed the cake into his mouth in one gulp, and only after finishing it did he say, "I seem to have forgotten to add some hot soup."
Taozhi couldn't help laughing. Looking at Xie Yan's silly look, she felt warm in her heart.
Xie Yan smiled and moved the soup in front of him. It was brought by the old lady just now.
Taozhi tried to imitate his way of eating, and then she found that... she had taken quite a big bite.
I glanced at Xie Yan and found that he also took a big bite and ate it very happily.
She suddenly thought that this one seemed delicious too.
