Chapter 80 The Night Market in the Old City

As soon as it got dark, the family of three set off. Guoguo was so excited that he insisted on Jing Junsheng talking about the past.

"Father used to live here, and you can see the night market when you open the window, but it's a bit out of the way, so there aren't many people, and they are basically regular customers." Jing Junsheng didn't think of this place at first, but it was Sun Hong who thought it was the last time he watched a movie. Being disturbed, he proposed to take his son out for a stroll on weekends, and he disliked the crowds in places like the aquarium, so he suddenly remembered that there was such a hidden night market.

Moreover, both Guoguo and him like food, and Sun Hong also likes desserts, so it is the most suitable place to come here.

There are many small alleys in the old city. Jing Junsheng dragged his father and son through the winding streets and alleys by memory. There were two or three pedestrians on the road, and occasionally backpackers passing by, probably because of the fame.

As soon as you exit the narrow alley, you will see a bright light in front of your eyes. The dim street lamps illuminate the small stalls on both sides of the street. In the smoke and fire, the boss and the diners are noisy, and the human voice and the aroma of the food are intertwined. Only here so lively.From the entrance of the alley to the other side, there are dazzling stalls of different types, some with red lanterns, some with a large wooden board as a sign, and some with menus hung on a rope, swaying in the wind.

"This one is still there." Jing Junsheng pointed nostalgicly to the left. The stall specializes in skewers, and the taste has been improved to be milder.The signboard said tripe, meatballs, ham, duck intestines, chicken hearts, etc. Guoguo immediately fell in love with meatballs, and his mouth watered.Sun Hong was sitting at a small table by the street with Guoguo in his arms. After a while, Jing Junsheng came back with a bowl of skewers and the dipping sauce he personally made: "Try it, their soup and sauce are all secret sauces. Made here, it is much more fragrant than others."

Sun Hong picked up a bunch of meatballs, took a bite, and the slightly hot meat juice overflowed from it, followed by a rich meaty aroma, which could be tasted as hand-made, with a springy texture.Knowing that it would not burn his mouth, Sun Hong passed it to Guoguo and let the little guy eat it slowly. Guoguo's little mouth soon became greasy.Jing Junsheng prefers chicken hearts, which are thick and meaty, one bite at a time.

Guoguo ate meatballs, ham and duck intestines, and couldn't get enough of it.Jing Junsheng coaxed him: "There are still a lot of delicious food, so keep your stomach."

Leaving the Chuan Chuan stall, he saw pastries not far away. Jing Junsheng bought a copy and asked the boss to sprinkle more bean noodles before bringing it to the father and son.The name of the pastry is very vulgar. It is called golden roll, which is golden yellow. The outer layer is coated with very fine bean noodles, and the inside is bean filling. It is soft in the mouth, sweet and not greasy.Guoguo took a bite of Sun Hong's hand, so sweet that her eyebrows and eyes were curved, she was very cute. "Big Daddy eats too!" The little guy remembered that Sun Hong liked sweets, so he picked one up and stuffed it into his mouth.

"Delicious." Sun Hong chewed slowly, watching Jing Junsheng shuttling between the stalls, the corners of his mouth could not help but curl up.

As the night darkened, more and more people were on the street. Jing Junsheng stood on tiptoe, saw the cauldron in front of the shop at the corner, and waved to the father and son.Sun Hong and Guoguo followed, and there happened to be an empty table in the store. The boss enthusiastically recommended his own mutton soup: "It's boiling hot in the pot, and the child will be healthy after eating it."

Jing Junsheng glanced at the menu, and replied: "Then let me have a signature lamb soup, in a big bowl, and a plate of fried haggis." Drilling into people's noses, I also bought a copy.You don’t shy away from these things in the night market. After ordering food at a restaurant, you can buy food from other places. Only when a table is full can you feel happy.

The mutton soup of this restaurant is really amazing, the soup is milky white, full of fragrance, smooth and not choking in the throat, although a lot of spices are added, it will not steal the umami taste of mutton and haggis.The fried haggis is also very good, full of garlic, and the smell of the haggis itself has become so weak that it can hardly be eaten.The skin of the roasted pig's trotter next door is slightly crispy, the meat is roasted very soft, and the tendons are slightly chewy. The taste is rich and layered, and one bite is not enough.

Guoguo has completely turned into a little dirty cat, with oil on her mouth and sauce on her face.Not to mention the hands, happily gnawing on the pig's trotters, it was dirty.Fortunately, Jing Junsheng had expected it, put a lot of tissues in his backpack, took them out and wiped the little guy carefully.

The boss smiled when he saw it: "Oh, it's so cute!"

Knowing that she was praised, Guoguo shyly hid in Sun Hong's arms.

Jing Junsheng rubbed Guoguo's stomach, and asked the boss, "What else is delicious here? I don't think I've seen the wonton shop..."

"His family quit. I heard that he was taken in by his son to take care of the elderly." The boss replied.

After hearing this, Jing Junsheng showed a regretful expression: "Their family's crispy wontons are delicious, it's a pity." But after careful calculation, the couple is quite old now, and it's normal that they don't have the energy to manage.

"Eat something else if you don't have one! Go ahead and there is a stall selling meatloaf, which is my brother-in-law's business." The boss laughed.

Guoguo clapped her hands: "Dad! I want to eat!"

Jing Junsheng thanked the boss with a smile: "Okay, let's go and have a look later."

That one is said to be the most famous meatloaf stall not far away, and there was a long queue in front of it, and Jing Junsheng and the others also found a seat and waited.It took about 10 minutes, and finally got two meat patties packed in a plastic bag, one is pure meat, with a thin layer of egg on the surface, it is crispy and fragrant after one bite, and the gravy oozes out and soaks the patties The skin adds more flavor; the other adds cheese, which is an innovative technique and the effect is not bad. The milk flavor and meat filling go well together.Guoguo licked her lips desperately, but she still couldn't lick off the shredded cheese sticking to it.

Walking to the end of the street without knowing it, there are many desserts here, such as mango pancakes with honey, crystal clear red bean sago dew, soft and smooth almond stewed milk... There is a young man pushing a wooden cart , Uncover the lids of the two large buckets in the car, which contain jelly with ice slag. The sweetness is just right, with the smoothness of jelly and the fragrance of sweet-scented osmanthus. "My jelly is filled with sweet-scented osmanthus seed water, the original taste." The young boss yelled.

If you continue walking, there are gradually no food stalls. Instead, there are some shops selling antiques of unknown authenticity, and some people are telling fortunes by the roadside, holding a thick book of "Book of Changes".Guoguo hiccupped a few times, looked back at the brightly lit night market, and asked softly, "Big Daddy, shall we come again next time?"

Sun Hong and Jing Junsheng looked at each other: "Yes, I will bring Guoguo to play when I have time."

Jing Junsheng suddenly smiled, and stepped on the shadow of the street lamp: "I used to think about setting up a stall here, opening a shop, selling stir-fried vegetables and so on. But when I was eating supper, I met some gangsters who came to collect protection money and falsely accused the owner of the shop. The food in the store was not clean, I helped drive people away, and I never thought about selling food here again.”

"Well, it's quite chaotic here." Sun Hong took it seriously.

Guoguo tilted her head to look at her father: "It's fun too... Well, now my father also sells delicious food."

Jing Junsheng pinched his face: "Yes, so I have no regrets..."
