“I took a big bite, and my mouth was filled with a fishy taste. From that time on, I have had a phobia of blood duck.”
“That’s right!” Yang Junjie smiled. “Later, when you went to my house, my mother specially cooked this dish, and you even ate several pieces to leave a good impression on her.”
"Thinking about it this way, I realize how fast time flies; eight years have passed in the blink of an eye."
“Yes, in my mind, you are still that naive eighteen-year-old boy. I never thought you would be twenty-six in the blink of an eye…” Xu Fang sighed.
Their journey has been extremely difficult.
I have gone through many stages, including studying, working, unemployment, low points, and stable employment.
Fortunately, they made it through everything, and they're getting married in the second half of the year.
"Don't think about it too much, come and eat." Yang Junjie said, handing chopsticks to Xu Fang. Just as he was about to open them, he heard Xu Fang say:
"JunJun, do you not like me anymore?"
"Why do you say that?" Yang Junjie looked at Xu Fang blankly, and stopped what he was doing.
"You know I hate food with a fishy smell, so why did you order this again!"
Girls are naturally sensitive and prone to overthinking, and they often like to ask strange questions.
At this point, most guys would impatiently reply, "You're overthinking it. Why are you being dramatic again?"
At this point, the girl's mood will worsen.
The correct approach is to soothe emotions and explain the reasons.
Yang Junjie provided a good example.
"Baby, that's not true. How could I not like you?"
"I just thought the owner was a great cook, and I thought his blood duck would be delicious, so I bought a portion to try."
After hesitating for a moment, Xu Fang questioned, "He's not from your hometown. Even if he makes something decent, it's not authentic!"
"How do we know if it's authentic or not if we don't try it? Let's eat first, I'm starving!"
Yang Junjie came here for the first time with a friend. They were hungry at the time, so they bought a boxed lunch.
Who knew?
Once it started, it was out of control.
From then on, Yang Junjie fell in love with Yu Hui's boxed lunches, and whenever he had time, he would come over to buy one.
I came here with my girlfriend last time.
I originally came here for the boxed lunches and braised dishes, but on a whim, I bought a serving of Yongzhou blood duck.
There's no going back now, and Yang Junjie just hopes that this Yongzhou blood duck won't disappoint him.
He opened the lid, first picked up a piece of lean duck meat and put it in his girlfriend's bowl, then casually picked up another piece and put it in his own bowl.
"Eat it while it's hot, it won't taste good when it gets cold."
After saying that, Yang Junjie picked up a piece of duck meat and took a bite.
The duck meat is incredibly fresh and has a crispy texture, while the duck blood is exceptionally smooth. The two together are a perfect match!
This immediately added a lot of highlights to the dish.
The spiciness of the green and red peppers and the bitterness of the bitter melon were balanced, resulting in a perfectly balanced flavor.
After Yang Junjie started working, he ate this dish at many Hunan restaurants.
Those Hunan restaurants all have very obvious characteristics: they have a strong ginger flavor, the duck is cut into small pieces, and they also have a slightly fishy smell.
Even some restaurants in my hometown don't serve this dish very well; at best, it's just a nostalgic experience.
But the dish that Yu Hui made was different!
Spicy and fragrant, with tender duck meat, no fishy smell, and not too strong ginger flavor, it is a very authentic Yongzhou blood duck.
Yang Junjie nodded, and couldn't help but sigh, "This is the taste of my childhood!"
Xu Fang smelled the delicious aroma of the blood duck and hesitated.
Then I saw the kids at the next table drooling with envy.
The child kept insisting on buying ducks, but the mother next door didn't agree, so the child started crying, and the crying was truly heart-wrenching!
She came to her senses and realized that Yang Junjie had picked up several more pieces of duck meat and was now engrossed in eating rice.
Is it really that delicious?
Driven by curiosity, Xu Fang picked up the piece of duck meat from her bowl.
She usually enjoys eating duck meat, and she eats all the braised duck parts with great relish.
only.
She is very afraid of food that is fishy; she feels like vomiting after just one bite of anything that is very fishy.
Not to mention after they've finished eating.
......
She looked at the duck meat covered in blood from every angle, then mustered up her courage and took a small bite.
The first taste is spicy and fragrant, followed by the fresh taste of duck meat. The layer of duck blood on top is also perfectly integrated, completely permeating the duck meat itself.
It tastes incredibly delicious!
Xu Fang's eyes lit up immediately, and she stared wide-eyed in disbelief.
"Could this be the authentic taste of blood duck?"
"So this is what authentic blood duck tastes like?"
She nodded in satisfaction and ate a large piece of duck meat in one bite.
Just then, a gentle breeze blew by, bringing a refreshing coolness.
Xu Fang closed her eyes, enjoying the cool breeze as she chewed.
Eating a whole piece of duck meat is very satisfying.
She felt as if she had entered a fairyland.
"This...this is so delicious!!!"
After tasting Yu Hui's Yongzhou blood duck, Xu Fang finally realized how delicious it was!
If this was the taste I had during my freshman year of college, I probably wouldn't be only 90-odd pounds now!
Yang Junjie and Xu Fang ate their meal in silence, but they seemed to get along very well.
Whether communicating or doing their own thing, everyone felt very comfortable.
This is probably the power of love!
......
On the other side.
"Boss, I heard you have a new spicy braised bullfrog dish. It's my favorite! Give me two, please!"
"Oh my god, they even have sausages now!"
"My family members don't understand, the food at this stall is just too delicious."
"......"
After Yang Junjie left, more and more people started ordering the special dishes and the newly introduced braised dishes.
Yu Hui, Pan Tiezhu, and Ye Yiqiu were extremely busy.
Especially during the evening, she was constantly tossing the wok, stir-frying the vegetables, adding seasonings, and so on.
He was very skilled and enjoyed the process, not feeling tired at all.
Time passed little by little.
As the midday rush ended and fewer tourists came to buy things, the afterglow finally had time to rest.
He had just sat down when he faintly heard a small sound.
"Boss... wipe your sweat, you've worked hard!"
Looking up, he realized it was Ye Yiqiu who had seen him covered in sweat and handed him a wet wipe.
"Thanks!"
Yu Hui felt a warmth in his heart, thinking: Girls still care about people!
If it were that kid Pan Tiezhu, he probably wouldn't even offer a word of concern, let alone hand over a wet wipe.
really.
Just as he expected.
Pan Tiezhu was sitting on a wooden stool, staring blankly into the distance.
Because of his extreme obesity, every step he takes during exercise is much more strenuous than for an average person.
After the lunch rush, Yu Hui and Ye Yiqiu were barely managing, but he was practically exhausted...
