C36 The Priest of the Fanissaries Had Gone Through a Calamity

Time went back to a summer in the late 1920s.

On this day, on the west street of Baiou City, "Hua Dahu Restaurant" was decorated with lanterns and ribbons, and it was filled with joy.

Everyone in Baiyou City knew that the dishes of "Hua Dali" were more delicious than the dishes in the Imperial Kitchen, but they also knew that "Hua Dali" Boss Hua was thick-skinned. He was as thick as the chopping board in their kitchen. In Baiyou City, whoever was shameless and thick-skinned would definitely say, A certain person's skin is like Hua Dali's chopping board! For some reason, This sentence actually became a well-known slang in Baiu City.

Although Boss Hua was often ridiculed because of his thick skin, he was a well-known filial son. Boss Hua had no father since he was young. It was his mother who helped him grow up by helping others.

There was a custom in Seagull City along the banks of the Wu River: A girl married into a new wife. After the daughter who came out of the pavilion got pregnant, They will have to go to Nanxi River to order good plain noodles, because the plain noodle soup was a necessary delicacy to entertain guests who came to visit their mothers and newborns. "Yue Zi Mu" not only had to take care of the child to serve the pregnant woman, but also had to take care of the child. More importantly, he had to know how to cook the plain noodle soup. Which "Yue Zi Mu" made the best vegetable noodle soup? It was the most popular "Yue Zi Mu. " The price offered by the owner was also the highest. Hua Dali's mother was the best "Yue Zi Mu" made in Seagull City. Naturally, she was worth a lot. So after being the Yue Zi Mu for so many years. . . She accumulated a fortune on the West Street in Baiu City. He opened a small noodle shop called "Hua Dali Su Broth. "

The Hua family's Su Su Su Broth was not an ordinary one. Usually, people made Su Su Broth with a small spoonful of cooking wine in order to make the noodles taste better. However, the plain noodle soup of the Hua family had a secret. In the soup of the plain noodle soup of the Hua family, the proportion of the water was very small. It was almost as if the soup was made of wine and filled up a bowl of soup. Actually, it was just a bowl of glutinous rice wine stewed with shrimp, eggs, and mushrooms! As long as one ate a bowl of the Hua Family's Vegetable Noodle Soup, it was equivalent to eating noodles. He also drank a bowl of glutinous rice wine. Once a bowl of the Hua family's vegetarian soup entered the stomach, people who did not know how to drink would have a heavy head and light feet. He was so dizzy that he didn't know where to go. Therefore, it was like an alcoholic who was addicted to drinking. When the customers in Bai Wu City didn't eat the dog soup for a few days, they would never forget it. They were addicted to it. Just like that, "the dog soup of the Great Floral Li" was filled with customers every day.

Slowly, the small noodle shop called "Flower Delicacy Broth" changed into "Flower Delicacy. " Although the signature dish was still the bowl of "Flower Delicacy Broth," it had taken over its mother's cooking and had already introduced new dishes.

In fact, before Hua Dali, there was no "Wu Cuisine" in the local cuisines of China. Just because Hua Dali did not hesitate to use his strength and Copper Jade, he went to Nanxi River, Yantao Mountain, and Dongtian Island to collect all kinds of delicacies. These most delicious and fresh ingredients made "Hua Dali'u Cuisine Restaurant" famous. In next to no time, the "Ou Cuisine" dish of his self-created sect obtained the recognition of the customers.

In 1876, after the Yantai Treaty, Baiu City became one of the trade ports opened by the western countries on the southeast coast of China. The Wujiang outside of Baiu City was directly connected to the East China Sea. Ships and merchants traveled in and out of the city. As a result, Baiu City became an important port and trade hub for the Silk Road in the southeast of China. The Hundred Craftsmen of the four villages and eight regions of Baiu City gathered their products in Baiu City to do all kinds of business. The most famous one among them was the "Five Craftsmen of Ouyue" who later gathered in the independent Lotus Rui Village of Nanxi River.

Due to the huge variety of business, the restaurant of Ouyue, which was extremely profitable, became a place that businessmen and craftsmen often visited. Gradually, it became the "News Publishing Hall" in Baiwu City. When Hua Lianshi came to Bai Wu City to preach, the news was that Hua Dali's restaurant was the first to be "reported" out. Because Hua Lianshi's first meal in Bai Wu City was at "Hua Dali's Vegetable Broth" Little Noodle House. When Hua Lianshi ate a bowl of Vegetable Broth with noodles that was rich in alcohol, Everyone knew that there was a "Fan" with yellow cat eyes in Baiu City. Even now, people in Baiu City still called foreigners "Fan. At that time, They heard that "Fans" did not bend their knees when walking, but they did not know. This "Fans" did not only bring the doctrine of the West, he also brought a lot of new things that they had never heard of before. For example, the women's school, the deaf and mute school, and the Western Medicine Hospital. All of this. . . Makes them very surprised and curious.

When everyone was filled with curiosity and didn't dare to get close to this "foreigner" who didn't know how to bend his knees while walking, Hua Dali's mother actually became good friends with this Hua Lianshi. Because Hua Lian Shi, who had just arrived at Bai Wu City, was captivated by a bowl of wine with a thick bowl of plain noodle soup. From then on, he would go to Hua Dali's restaurant to drink vegetable broth from time to time. Hua Lian Shi took out the perfume and pollen brought by England as a gift, and it did not take long. He miraculously learned from Old Madam Hua the Wu River dialect that was hailed as the greatest difficulty in the world by later generations!

Although this Hua Dali was thick-skinned, he listened to his mother's every word. Old Granny Hua had a headache and a headache. He was scared half to death first. There was once when old lady Hua was stained with something unclean and suddenly had diarrhea. The situation was critical. The doctor in the local TCM clinic said that she might have been infected with malarial disease. Just as Hua Dali was getting anxious, Lian Huashi sent him the rare western medicine at that time - Quining. Not long after, Old Madam Hua recovered. From then on. Hua Dali had treated Lian Huashi as his mother's saviour. He respected him even more. Today was Hua Dali's mother's 80th birthday. On this joyous day, Hua Dali held a feast and invited everyone. Of course, Cleric Lian Huashi was the guest of honor at the 80th birthday banquet.

On that day, LinHuashi received a letter of invitation. He wanted to change his clothes and go to the banquet, but his young wife stopped him and said, China is a country of etiquette. They invited you to the birthday banquet, so you should give them some gifts to celebrate their birthday. Even Huashi was right when he heard that. He took a few silver coins and went to the row upon row of shops in Washi Lane to learn the manners of the people in Baiou City when giving gifts. After buying a "paper bag" filled with round eyes (osmanthus) and with a red paper pasted on it, he carried it in his hand and walked towards Hua Daliao's restaurant. When he walked to an alley called "Xingwen Li," he did it. He saw a small peddler peddling, "Lantern Cake, we're eating Lantern Cake!" This was the first time Lian Huashi had seen "Lamp Cake. " He didn't know what it was. He only felt the fragrance of oil seeping into his nose. When the peddler saw a yellow-haired, cat-eyed "foreigner" staring at the "Lamp Cake," he handed one to him in a friendly manner. Lian Huashi hurriedly took out the money and handed it over. The peddler said, "This money is too big. You eat first. Buy two more before paying. "

Lian Huashi bit open the flat and shiny golden pancake and saw the shredded radish mixed with shredded meat. One bite would bring out one or two shredded radish. Like the core of an oil lamp, Lian Huashi asked the peddler, "So this is the origin of the 'Lamp Cake', right?"

When the hawker heard that this foreigner actually knew how to speak, he began to chat with him, Winter Melon and Radish. Lian Huashi felt that the Lamp Cake was really delicious. He did not hesitate to ask the peddler for half a dozen in one go, saying that he would bring it back for his family to taste. But. . . When he reached into his pocket and touched it, it was broken. The two new silver coins that he had just brought out were gone! It was only now that Lian Huashi felt that his attention had not been focused when he was chatting with the hawker. His shirt had been moved by someone. He must have been robbed! Just as he helplessly shook his head and put down the half-dozen 'Lamp Cake' and returned it to the hawker, A brawny man came in front of him. This man was holding the back of a lackey's shirt. He threw him in front of Lian Huashi and said, "Hurry up and return the money you stole to this gentleman!"

The henchman said, "But, he is a foreigner. . . " The brawny man glared and shouted at the henchman, "Can a foreigner's silver be stolen? You are a disgrace to our White House! " The lackey took out two snow-white silver coins with trembling hands and handed them back to Lian Huashi. Then, he turned around and ran away.

Lian Huashi hurriedly thanked the brawny man. He did not expect that the brawny man would turn around and leave in a hurry in the direction of the Ma Xing Pier without saying a word.

After Lian Huashi saw the brawny man's figure disappear, he took the half-filled lantern cake and money from the peddler's hands. He also hurried his steps and stepped into the Hua Da'liu Restaurant.

Today, Hua Daliao's restaurant was decorated with lanterns and streamers, and it was filled with distinguished guests. It was very festive. Very soon, Even Huashi put the matter from earlier to the back of his mind. Old Granny Flowery the Celebrity Flower kept introducing her "guest" disciple to the guests who had come to congratulate her. From time to time, Lian Huashi would let Lian Huashi speak a few words of what she had taught him. Lian Huashi's strange pronunciation kept making the guests laugh. Just as everyone was immersed in this incomparably joyous and joyous atmosphere, someone suddenly rushed over. He shouted at Lenovo: "Priest, hurry up and leave! Your youngest son, Aiwa, just fell into the river and was rescued. He was sent from the Marquess Pier to your Redsey Hospital. I don't know if he's still alive or not! "

When Lian Huashi heard that, he stood up from the dinner table and rushed out of the door. The half-dozen "lamp cakes" behind him fell to the ground with a bang. He didn't know at all. . .
