Chapter 332 Chapter 332, cold cup
When it was time to get off work, An Yan was not in a hurry to leave. She planned to have dinner here before going back to school.
Because she didn't receive Yu Xiushi's message, it means that his work is not finished yet, and she doesn't know when he will leave work.
So, she was not in a hurry to go back to the apartment. Anyway, she was alone when she went back. Why not have dinner with Sister Qingqing and the others, and then she took a walk back, just to treat it as a post-meal digestion.
"Aren't you going back to eat with your family?"
Hearing that An Yan was going to finish the meal with them, Zhang Qingqing winked and joked.
An Yan smiled calmly, "He's been busy recently, and he's still in the lab. I don't know when he's finished eating together."
"Oh no wonder you have dinner with the two of us when you have time." Zhang Qingqing laughed.
Yan Tingting smiled, "Then why don't we go to the night market to eat? It's also close to the school, so I can go back to school after eating."
Anyanfang just moved to the next yard today, and the kitchen has not been tidied up yet, so they plan not to open fire today.
Fortunately, there was brother-in-law's loving chicken soup for lunch today. The three of them ate very well. Basically, a pot of chicken soup was not wasted. As for dinner, they had to rely on themselves to solve it.
"Night market? That's a good suggestion, let's just go and eat the 'cold cup'."
Zhang Qingqing didn't have much appetite at first, because the weather was too hot, and a lot of food was hot and dry, which made people have no appetite at all.
But the cold cup is different, simple and refreshing, and there are many types to choose from, which is very suitable for hot summer.
"Okay, I haven't had a 'cold cup' for a long time, and this weather is really suitable for eating a 'cold cup'."
An Yan also readily agreed to her cousin's proposal. It is already half past five in the afternoon, but the sun is still high, and the air is full of scorching heat.
General food is cooked by frying, frying and stewing. In the hot summer, it is easy to make people feel greasy and hot.
The cold cup is a name for cold food, and it is a common saying among the local people in Rongcheng.
Since the early 1990s, it has been used to refer to every year from early summer to late autumn, there are countless food shops and stalls in Chengdu that have expanded their business to street courtyards and riverside green shades.
Most of these food stalls sell some home-cooked side dishes such as boiled peanuts, fried beans, edamame, dried tofu, braised chicken wings, braised duck feet, soaked chicken feet, fried escargots, fried lobsters, etc., and serve some "soaked wine", beer, draft beer and other drinks. .
Every sunset and dusk, the "sitting area" of these food stalls is always full of people and extremely lively, and this kind of eating form of eating outdoors in the open courtyard or on the street of the shop is called by the citizens of Chengdu. It is called "cold cup".
The three of them soon came to the river on the other side of the night market. At this time, tables and chairs had been set up along the road, especially the position next to the stone railing by the river. stool.
Come here to eat the "cold cup", that is, no matter how tall you are, how elite you are in the workplace, you can still sit on a low table and stool, and eat with your body slightly hooked.
"What do you two want to eat? I'll pay the bill." After An Yan sat down, she pushed the menu on the table between the two of them.
"Really? Then we are welcome"
Hearing this, the two of them were extremely happy, and ordered their favorite food without mercy.
"Boiled peanuts, edamame, and marinated dried tofu." Yan Tingting immediately ordered three items, which are essential appetizers for eating cold cups.
Zhang Qingqing then ordered, "Sauce-flavored duck feet, rattan pepper chicken tips, braised pig's trotters, fried snails, and a spicy crayfish."
Finally, she passed the menu to An Yan again, "Yan Yan, can you see if there is anything else you want?"
An Yan waved her hand, "You all ordered my favorite food, so let's just order these for now, let's order more if it's not enough."
Don’t look at the appearance that they ordered a lot, but in fact, the portion of some dishes is not much, in order to facilitate diners to have a variety of choices.
While looking at the drink list, Zhang Qingqing asked the two of them, "Would you like some beer? This is a cold cup, and it will make you feel better with some beer. If you can't drink enough, you can try a can of beer. "
"Okay, okay"
Yan Tingting's eyes were full of eager light, she grew up so big, she hadn't had a serious drink yet, and she didn't dare to drink lightly even when she was out of the house as a girl.
But now with her two sisters, she can try it with confidence.
Seeing that the two of them looked at her in unison, An Yan said with a smile, "Okay, let's all have a drink."
Drinking some cold beer while eating delicious food in the hot summer is really refreshing.
"Boss! Three cans of frozen Snow Beer!" Zhang Qingqing raised her hand happily, signaling the boss not far away to place an order.
"The sun has finally set, and it's much cooler to sit by the river." Yan Tingting sighed while looking around.
"It's been a long time since I've eaten out like this, and the food at the roadside stall is the most delicious"
Zhang Qingqing is in a very good mood now, and the impetuous mood brought about by the sultry weather was instantly blown away by the breeze by the river.
An Yan said with a smile, "Well, let's relax tonight, new employees will be on duty starting tomorrow, and the two of you will each be responsible for bringing in a few newcomers.
It is estimated that in the next period of time, you two will have to work hard. Tonight, I will reward you first, and I will reward you when everyone has a group dinner at the end of the month. "
"Okay, just for your reward, boss, I have to roll up my sleeves and work hard!" Zhang Qingqing jokingly agreed.
"However, compared to the two newcomers I brought, Tingting may have to work harder. She has to bring four technicians."
Yan Tingting said with a little embarrassment, "It's not hard work, I think the current job is much better than the working mode I imagined.
In fact, the production of the product is not particularly difficult. As long as you put in more effort, you can get started quickly. When the four of them learn it, it will be easier for me. "
She is telling the truth. Although she has to make products every day, it seems that the workload is very heavy, but as long as she is proficient in the craft, it is actually not as tiring as imagined.
After mastering the entire production process proficiently, I can take time to rest my hands and feet during the process, not to the extent that I cannot do without people all the time.
The most important thing is that the working environment is very relaxing and reassuring. I don't know why, every time she enters the workshop, her mood and mentality are very peaceful.
