Ring ring ring~
As Zhou Yi walked into the main room, the phone rang.
She was a little confused and didn't know who was calling. When she picked up the phone, it was Qin Qin and He Zhan on the other end. Zhou Yi smiled. That's right, she had just arrived in Beijing. Who else knew the phone number of this courtyard except He Zhan?
After chatting for a while, I learned that Zhou Yi and the others had arrived safely in Beijing. I reminded her to be careful and get some rest early, then hung up the phone.
Zhou Yi packed his luggage, washed up and lay down on the bed. He felt a little dazed that he was already in the capital.
It was already winter. Thinking back, it had been almost a year since she traveled through time. So many things had happened in this year that it felt like a lifetime. As she thought about it, she fell asleep.
The night passed in silence, and the first ray of sunlight shone on the courtyard.
Zhou Yi and the others had already gotten up, and Yun Gaofei had already gone out to buy breakfast, which included meat buns, bean juice with fried dough sticks, a plate of pickles, and four bowls of fried liver.
Several people came to the living room at the entrance of the courtyard and gathered around the table to prepare breakfast. Zhou Yi and Yun Feng looked at the plate of pickles and sticky stuff with a strange expression, not knowing whether it should be served with meat buns or soy milk.
"Meat buns with fried liver, fried dough sticks, soy milk and spicy pickles are a unique breakfast in Beijing. You should try them too." Xu Xiaoxiu had obviously tasted them, but her expression made Zhou Yi and the others dare not eat them.
"Gao Fei, is what Xiao Xiu said true? This pickle goes with soy milk? This sticky stuff goes with meat buns?" Yun Feng pointed at the breakfast on the table and looked at Yun Gaofei in disbelief.
Yun Gaofei nodded and said, "It is indeed a classic breakfast in Beijing. The breakfast here tastes very authentic. You should try it."
Zhou Yi glared at Yun Gaofei. She knew that these were two of the best breakfast delicacies in Beijing, but she could never stand the taste. She always thought that only old Beijing people could appreciate this taste. She never expected that Yun Gaofei would bring back these two delicacies for them so early in the morning.
She could still accept the soy milk with fried dough sticks, but adding spicy pickles to it was really unbearable, and the sticky fried liver was even more unacceptable to her.
The table was full, but only the meat buns were edible.
"Gao Fei, don't fool me, I really tasted it." Yun Feng was eager to try it after hearing what Yun Gaofei said, but he really couldn't accept it.
"Brother Feng, just try it. Now that you're in Beijing, how can you not try an authentic breakfast?" Xu Xiaoxiu picked up a bowl of soy milk and started drinking it, but did not eat the fried dough sticks and pickles.
"Gao Fei, Xiao Xiu, I'm going to be a father in the spring of next year, so don't lie to me." Yun Feng looked like he was about to be executed.
"Man, do you have to make such a fuss about a mere breakfast?" Xu Xiaoxiu continued. Yunfeng originally wanted to try the authentic flavor of the old capital, but Xu Xiaoxiu's expression and words really scared him.
"Cousin, Gao Fei, are you there?" Just when Yunfeng was hesitating whether to eat, a shout came from outside the door.
"Qin Bei? Why is he also in the capital?" Zhou Yi asked Yun Gaofei with some surprise.
"I don't know either. I'll go meet him first." Yun Gaofei also looked confused. He stood up and walked out the door. Zhou Yi followed him out.
"Qin Bei, you are also in the capital?" Zhou Yi looked at Qin Bei outside the gate in surprise.
"Hey, what a coincidence, I was arranged by the army to come here to study some time ago, and you guys came just after I finished my work." Qin Bei greeted Yun Gaofei, and while answering Zhou Yi, he walked into the yard and went directly to the living room of the back house.
"How did you know we were in the capital? And how did you find us here?" Zhou Yi followed Qin Bei inside and continued to ask.
Besides, judging from Qin Bei’s familiarity with this courtyard, it doesn’t seem like this is his first time here.
"I bought the things in your yard. How come you asked me how I knew you were coming here?" Qin Bei walked to the door of the living room, looked back at Zhou Yi and replied.
After saying that, he walked into the living room, greeted Yunfeng and Xu Xiaoxiu, and sat down at the table. It was obvious that he knew early on that they would come to the capital together.
Zhou Yi also sat down again and asked, "Did you buy it? Why didn't my mother and senior brother mention it to me?"
"Cousin, please ask me later. Since there is such an authentic breakfast, let me have a bite first, okay?" Qin Bei said as he picked up a meat bun, dipped it in the fried liver and started eating.
Looking at Qin Bei like this, Zhou Yi couldn't help but sigh that he was really a big foodie who would accept anything!
Yunfeng, who was standing by, saw Qin Bei eating with big mouthfuls, and it looked really good, so he picked up a doughnut and prepared to take a bite.
But before he could take a bite, Qin Bei stopped him and said, "This fried dough ring must be eaten with pickles, otherwise it won't taste right."
As he said that, he put a piece of pickled vegetables on the fried dough ring with chopsticks, then looked at Yunfeng and said, "Okay, Brother Feng, you must take a big bite to taste the flavor of the fried dough ring and the pickled vegetables."
Yunfeng took a look, hesitated a little but still took a big bite. As soon as he finished biting it, he showed an indescribable expression. After chewing it for a while, he quickly picked up the soy milk beside him and drank it in big gulps.
As a result, he couldn't help but turned around and spit it out as soon as he drank the soy milk.
With a look of despair, he said, "Why is it rotten?"
Everyone in the room except Qin Bei laughed at Yunfeng's reaction, especially Xu Xiaoxiu, whose laughter was exaggerated.
"What are you laughing at? This is the taste of soy milk. Brother Feng, why did you spit it out? What a waste." Qin Bei, a big foodie, looked at the bowl of soy milk with some regret, then looked at Yun Feng with a shameful look of wasting food in his eyes, then picked up the bowl of soy milk and started drinking it.
Yunfeng looked at Qin Bei in disbelief. This thing was supposed to taste like this? And Qin Bei was drinking it with such relish?
"Brother Qin Bei, can you drink the rotten soy milk? And Xiao Xiu, you seemed to have drunk it just now?" Yun Feng was really speechless. He even suspected that the people in the capital had nothing to eat, so they drank the rotten soy milk.
"Brother Feng, this is what soy milk tastes like. Don't be fooled by its sour and smelly taste. It is actually very nutritious." Xu Xiaoxiu said as he took another sip.
"Brother Feng, did you hear that? Xiaoxiu is the one who appreciates it." Qin Bei glared at Yunfeng, then turned and looked at Xu Xiaoxiu with a smile. His expression was as if he had found a soulmate.
"Xiaoyi, try it and tell me if this soy milk is rotten." Yunfeng said to Zhou Yi.
Zhou Yi didn't like the taste of soy milk to begin with, and Yunfeng actually asked her to try it? Wasn't that just pushing her into a trap?
"I won't try it, okay?" She twitched her lips, a little embarrassed, and then changed the subject, "Why is Ma Peipei still missing?"
Yun Gaofei even said to himself, "Soy milk is nutritious. I bought it especially for you to try."
"Xiaoyi, did you hear that? Deputy Battalion Commander Yun bought this specially for you. It would be unreasonable if you didn't try it." Xu Xiaoxiu added without hesitation.
