The restaurant is small and the decoration style is very old.
However, it seems that the whole town has this old-fashioned style, which does not seem out of place.
Wang Qing opened the door of the restaurant and walked in. There were only a few customers inside.
This restaurant is clearly a mom-and-pop restaurant.
The shop owner is an older man, with a dark face full of wrinkles and gray hair neatly combed back with hair wax.
He wears a dark blue apron. She had sleeves on her hands and her whole body was neatly groomed.
As soon as a guest comes in, he greets him warmly.
"Welcome." The boss's eyes glanced around Wang Qing and the housekeeper, and he smiled knowingly, "Are you two visiting the town?"
"Yes." Wang Qing nodded slightly and was led by the boss to sit down in a seat.
The boss carefully wiped the other people's tables with a rag, and then poured a glass of water for the two of them.
"What do you two want to eat? Our store has crab roe noodles and fish roe noodles that are special to this town. Everyone who has eaten them praises them." The boss said with a smile.
Unlike his old appearance, his voice sounded very young and full of energy.
"Let's take one each." Wang Qing glanced at the butler and asked his opinion, "I'll have crab roe noodles and you can have caviar noodles, okay?"
Seeing this, the boss smiled even more and said cheerfully: "What's the big deal? You two young lovers don't dislike each other. If you eat each other's noodles, won't you both be able to taste it?"
When Wang Qing heard this, he quickly waved his hands to deny it: "Ah, no, no, no... you misunderstood, we are not lovers."
"Huh? Isn't it?" The boss was stunned.
He looked at Wang Qing, then at the housekeeper, and finally raised his hand to scratch his head in confusion.
"Sorry, I made a mistake and thought you two were a couple." The boss said apologetically.
Wang Qing waved his hand magnanimously and did not pursue further.
Anyway, this is not the first time I have been mistakenly admitted. The proprietress of the hotel has asked me this before.
The boss said hello to the kitchen: "One portion of crab roe noodles, one portion of fish roe noodles."
Then he turned to look at Wang Qing and said with a stunned expression, "I accidentally admitted my mistake. I'll give you two a free meal this time."
Wang Qing didn't expect that there was such a discount, so he shied away for a few words. Seeing that the boss persisted, he didn't refuse.
The boss still stopped at their table and did not leave.
He lowered his head and looked at Wang Qing with a bit of regret in his expression: "Why doesn't such a beautiful girl have a partner?"
Before Wang Qing could say anything, he immediately comforted her: "It's okay, it's okay, little girl, you are young and beautiful, you will find a partner soon."
Wang Qing was a little confused. He held the water glass in his hands and looked up at the boss without taking a sip.
There was unabashed concern and thoughtfulness on that old face.
There is quite a kind of kindness that elders treat juniors.
I always feel like something is weird.
But Wang Qing couldn't say why it was strange.
Maybe older people are like this. When they see young people not starting a family, they like to urge marriage and childbirth.
I often see on the Internet that young people will be asked about their marital status by their seven aunts and eight aunts when they go home for the holidays.
Wang Qing has never encountered such a thing before.
I don’t know why, but the memory of the past is always a little blurry in my mind.
She only vaguely remembered that she had been alone since her mother passed away, and her relationship with all her relatives on her father's side was not good.
Usually when he goes home on vacation, he always stays alone in the house, with no one taking the initiative to talk to him.
Kinship is very weak.
However, in Wang Qing's heart, she always longed for the warmth of home.
Therefore, after inheriting her grandfather's farm, she pinned her expectations for her family on this farm.
Wang Qing hopes that the farm can run better and better.
We also sincerely hope that every employee working on the farm can have a sense of belonging to the farm.
As for the housekeeper, she was specially left by her grandfather, and she bore the burden of her grandfather's care for her as his granddaughter.
This is one of the reasons why Wang Qing is willing to trust the housekeeper.
At this time, I heard what the old version said.
Instead of feeling offended, Wang Qing felt an indescribable warmth welling up from deep in his heart.
That was something she had never experienced in many years, the nagging from her elders.
Although the boss was a stranger, he showed her concern without falsehood.
"Don't be anxious about this kind of thing." Wang Qing smiled at the boss and said, "I'd like to lend you some kind words."
"You can't be anxious, you can't be anxious." The boss nodded in agreement, and added, "The key is to choose the person you like. The most important thing is for a young couple to live a sweet life. If you choose someone you don't like, your life will be difficult. If there is no harmony, then it will be bad.”
Several customers who were sitting in the restaurant eating also raised their heads.
The aunt closest to Wang Qing's table was the first to speak: "It's okay, little girl, you can visit our town more. There are many young people in the town, maybe there will be someone who is right for you?"
The uncle at the table next to you also laughed and said, "Don't worry, little girl. Our town has always advocated free love. As long as you like each other, your elders will never stop you."
Everyone was talking about it.
"Yes, yes, we are right. It would be better if we get married as soon as possible and have a fat boy again."
"Children are the favorite people in our town. Every household is looking forward to raising more children. It doesn't matter if you don't have time to take care of them after they are born, we can all help."
"Yes, yes, one or two is never too little, three or four is never too many, and five, six, seven or eight would be even better. More children means more blessings."
Listening to everyone's lively conversation, even Wang Qing felt that the enthusiasm was a little too much.
The folk customs of this small town are really simple, and it seems that all the residents in the town warmly welcome tourists like them.
Even though they were just strangers meeting for the first time, they were all vying to introduce someone to Wang Qing.
At this time, there was a noise from the direction of the kitchen, interrupting everyone's busy discussion.
"Crab roe noodles and fish roe noodles, ready."
With a loud shout, the curtain in the kitchen was opened, and an elderly woman walked out holding two bowls of noodles.
When the boss who was talking saw her, he quickly stepped forward and took a piece of noodles from the woman's hand.
"I'll serve it, I'll serve it," the boss said with a hint of familiar complaint, and his brows and eyes were filled with tender concern, "I'll serve the two bowls of noodles at the same time. What should I do if they get burned?"
Wang Qing looked at this heartwarming scene with emotion in his heart.
Although the boss and his wife are both middle-aged and elderly people over fifty with gray hair, this love full of fireworks has not faded at all due to their age.
The boss took both bowls of noodles and put them on the table.
The landlady picked up her apron and wiped the handle. Her old face was full of happiness and she walked to Wang Qing's table.
"Try it, you two. Our store has been open for many years. My mother-in-law taught me this skill of making noodles."
As soon as the proprietress finished speaking, the door of the restaurant was pushed open.
Two children, seven or eight years old, ran in with schoolbags on their backs.
He shouted to the boss and his wife: "Dad, Mom, I'm hungry and want some noodles!"
