Xia Mingxing is very familiar with Shanghai. After all, he lived here for several years during college, and he is familiar with those time-honored restaurants with extraordinary craftsmanship. He wandered around and found a small Cantonese restaurant.

It was originally a private restaurant, but now it is a public-private partnership. When they arrived, the indoor seats were [-]% full.

Xia Xingxing parked his bicycle, and sat down with Li Xingxing at an empty table in the corner, "Xingxing, you sit and wait for me, and I'll order at the counter. What can we eat today, is that okay?"

"OK, no problem.

When Li Xingxing eats in state-run restaurants, he always orders according to the existing menu, and the supply is different every day.

Xia Mingxing approached the counter, looked at the small blackboard hanging by the window, and said to the middle-aged waitress behind the window: "One serving of brine platter, one serving of stuffed tofu, one serving of steamed pork ribs and boiled shrimp in black bean sauce, and eight taels of rice."

The price is marked on the small blackboard, and the money and food coupons are offered.

The waiter lowered his head to register the dishes he ordered, but did not look up, "There are no ribs, can I replace it with pickled pork with dried plums? There is only the last one, and the supply of pork today is very limited."

"Just replace it with dried plums and vegetables." Xia Mingxing handed in the money and food stamps.

When he raised his head to collect the money and the ticket, the waiter’s eyes suddenly flashed with suspicion, and after about half a minute, his fair and round face was full of surprise and surprise, "Xiao Xia? Are you Xiao Xia? I haven’t seen you for many years since you graduated. I almost didn't recognize you, I remember you used to come here when I was in school."

Xia Xingxing nodded and said, "Aunt Liu, why don't you come and take care of me?"

"Very good!" Aunt Liu smiled all over her face and looked her up and down, "Xiao Xia, when did you come to Shanghai? I can tell by your appearance, attire and energy, that your work is good, right?"

"It's okay." Xia Mingxing didn't mention his current position. He looked back at Li Xingxing who was looking around. He turned his head and smiled at Aunt Liu, "Just passing by, bring my wife to taste Uncle Liu's craftsmanship , Is the restaurant still run by Uncle Liu? Or Uncle Liu's two apprentices?"

When mentioning her husband's apprentice, Aunt Liu's smile faded, and she soon cheered up again: "It's Lao Liu who cooks. The daily supply is limited, and he is enough for one person. Who is your wife? Let me meet .”

Xia Xingxing beckons Li Xingxing to come over.

Aunt Liu was amazed, "Xiao Xia, your daughter-in-law looks so beautiful!"

Before the words finished, Li Xingxing had arrived.

After all, the restaurant is small, and the distance from the corner to the counter is only about ten steps.

"Brother Xia, did you call me? Didn't you agree to order?" After finishing speaking, Li Xingxing looked at Aunt Liu curiously, with a mischievous expression on his face, "This looks like the proprietress, is it the proprietress?"

Aunt Liu smiled and said, "It used to be the proprietress, but now it's a waiter."

Li Xingxing expressed his understanding: "Yes, yes, now it is a public-private partnership, and you should belong to the glorious working class. What delicious food does your family have?"

"Xiao Xia has ordered food, you sit back, I will send the menu to the kitchen for you to cook."

Aunt Liu sent the menu to the kitchen, and said to the middle-aged tall and thin chef: "Xiao Xia brought her daughter-in-law to dinner, Lao Liu, you have to show real skills, don't be perfunctory like usual, Xiao Xia has a very picky tongue. very."

"Xiao Xia? That kid is here?" Lao Liu was very happy, "First serve them two bowls of oxtail soup, I'll treat them."

Aunt Liu responded, took out a soup bowl and filled it with oxtail soup, and took the tray outside.

Seeing her coming to his couple's table, Xia Mingxing quickly took over, "Aunt Liu, I didn't order any soup."

"We'll cook for ourselves, and I'll serve you two bowls to see whether Lao Liu's craftsmanship has improved or regressed." Aunt Liu flicked her wrist after he took over, "Xiao Xia's daughter-in-law, hurry up and try it. "

"Okay!" Li Xingxing took a spoonful and blew it into his mouth. "There are sealwort, goji berries, and the taste of beef bones."

Aunt Liu clapped her palms: "It's amazing! Huangjing Wolfberry Oxtail Soup."

Li Xingxing said casually: "Nourish the kidneys, nourish the yin, benefit the essence and strengthen the bones."
