Seaside Inn

The old man Jiang saw, "Why don't you use well water, tap water costs money."

"It's convenient, come here!"

There is a water well next to the laundry pool. Mrs. Jiang always asks old man Jiang to fetch water in order to save some water bills. Old man Jiang is not too young. Letting him go to sea is the biggest concession. He has to do hard work when he returns home. Of course, he was not very willing. In the past two years, there was an old man who accidentally fell into the water when he fetched water. His son came back in the afternoon and found out that he had already been crazy.

"You prodigal son!"

Jiang Ran flushed the mud in the bucket almost, then poured the razor clams into the basin and continued to wash, then sprinkled some salt and spit out the sand for two hours, the old man Jiang brought an iron basin from the kitchen, stacked the razor clams vertically to fill the basin full Put it in a full pot and steam it. Don’t steam it for too long. When the shell is opened, take it up and change it to another pot to continue steaming.

The steamed razor clams were poured out, and the Jiang family, old and young, sat on a small bench in the yard peeling the razor clams.

These razor clams were not dug up for sale, but because Mrs. Jiang was going to dry the razor clams.

The peeled razor clam meat was washed again and then put on the dustpan and dried in the sun. It was already evening after finishing these. Never afraid of breaking it again.

Back in the house, Jiang Ran was looking up information with his notebook in his arms. Siwen’s words gave him the idea of ​​opening a homestay. He didn’t talk about it with Mrs. Jiang for the time being. Do a lot, not something that can be said and done in a short time.

Their small island is now a defined development zone, and there are quite a lot of tourist attractions, although Jiang Ran, as a local, doesn't feel much about the attractions that the travel company promotes.

But it is undeniable that there have been a lot of tourists in the past two years, and several large travel companies have opened one after another.Hotels and hotels also sell scenic spot rooms online, and there are also a few homestays. Jiang Ran put his hands on his cheeks and made gestures in his heart, thinking about the possibility of building his own homestay.

First, his house is on the coast, the kind where you can see the sea when you open the door.

Second, his house has just been refurbished, and it is new inside and out. Every room has a bed, wardrobe, and desk.There is also a small bathroom. It is possible to wash and shower in the rain, but there is no bathtub.And the windows of the rooms are located near the sea, so you can see the sea when you open the window.

The place is so big that the front yard and the back yard can be combined to build another building. When the house was renovated and they had a banquet and wine, they put eight big round tables in the front yard!

Thirdly, his family environment is also good. Grandpa and grandma are both clean people. They raise chickens and grow vegetables in the backyard, and the flowers and plants that Mrs. Jiang likes are planted in the corners of the front yard. There is also a grapefruit tree at the gate.

The environment of the homestay is similar to that seen on the Internet, as long as it is adjusted again.

Fourth, his family has a chef!Eating is not a problem.

All of the above made Jiang Ran feel that his home is very suitable for a homestay, but no matter how good the conditions are, someone needs to know that someone will come. He checked the Weibo posted by Siwen and said that there are quite a lot of people who want to come to see Blue Tears. How many more came, Jiang Ran was not sure.

It's eleven o'clock.

Jiang Ran yawned and lifted the quilt to go to bed.

If he comes, he will be safe, his house is there, and if anyone comes, he will come.

Every two days, someone actually knocked on the door.

Still an acquaintance.

The group of college students who came to stay here before.

He Tiantian saw Jiang Ran's eyes brighten up, "Brother Jiang, do you still remember me?"

Jiang Ran smiled, "Remember, have you finished the kimchi that the superior will give you?"

"I'm done eating, I've finished eating a long time ago, I can't forget it, isn't this here to ask for kimchi again!"

It's business after the joke.

"We saw on the Internet that there were blue tears recently, so we wanted to take a look..."

"It does happen recently, but it depends on luck. Don't you read?"

He Tiantian said, "We don't have to sit in the classroom every day. If we have a project, we can ask for leave. Brother Jiang, can you lend us another two nights, can we pay it at the hotel price?"

Jiang Ran said, "Where is a hotel in my country house worth the money, just give half of it!"

When He Tiantian heard this, she was so happy that she almost jumped up, calling a few students who were standing not far away to come over quickly, "Brother Jiang, you are really a good person!"

This time, there are two more people in He Tiantian's group, three men and three women, and one of them is a couple. This way the room is easy to arrange, and the three rooms on the third floor and the first floor are just right.

Old man Jiang and Mrs. Jiang are all hospitable people, and there is money for people to borrow, and there is nothing to refuse.When people get old, they want to have more fun at home.

They were exhausted after a day's driving, and the room was tidied up when Jiang Ran planned it before, all they needed to do was open the windows for ventilation.

Six people nestled in the room for an afternoon nap, and at night you pushed me, and I pushed you down.

Jiang Ran had already prepared the meal.

Considering that there are guests, the rice is steamed at night, with a thin layer of sesame seeds sprinkled on top, and the steamed rice has a faint sesame fragrance.

The eggplants at home are ripe, and they are just used for cooking.

Wash and cut the eggplant into pieces without peeling and put it in the pot to steam for ten minutes. While mincing the meat, put the minced garlic in the pot to burst out the aroma of garlic, then add the minced meat and stir-fry, while adding soy sauce, oyster sauce and a little sugar. Stir-fry until the color is even, then put the steamed eggplant in and continue to stir-fry, add a little water and simmer slowly for a while to make the eggplant pulpy, and finally sprinkle a handful of green and red peppers on a plate, return the eggplant to the pot, it is delicious and eye-catching .

There are quick-frozen chicken feet bought in the supermarket in the refrigerator. I originally wanted to keep them for making soaked feet, but today I took out half of them to make drunkard chicken feet.

The method of Jiugui chicken feet is actually very simple. After adding cooking wine to the chicken feet, quickly supercool the water to make the chicken feet elastic. Stir-fry rock sugar to make the sugar color. Add chicken feet and add fragrant leaves and star anise tangerine peel, pour a can of beer, and use light soy sauce After the dark soy sauce is toned, cover the pot and cook for a while, wait for the soup to thicken and then put it on a plate.

Beer can not only remove the earthy smell of chicken feet, but also sublimate the taste. If you like spicy food, you can add a little millet pepper. The two old men especially like to use this as an appetizer.

Remove the heads and skins of the prawns and leave only the tails for beauty. Coat them with a layer of cornstarch, put them in a hot pan and deep-fry them, then take them out and drain the oil. In another pan, stir-fry the shredded ginger and add the fried shrimps with a little salt to taste, a little chili powder and Stir-fry a lot of pepper powder to make the pepper powder evenly distributed, sprinkle a little chopped green onion, and the shrimp in the typhoon shelter will be fine.

After the domestic clams spit out the sand, blanch them in water again, put the egg liquid on the plate, steam in the pot for ten minutes, take it out, and drizzle with a layer of soy sauce and sesame oil.Jiang Ran thought for a while and sprinkled a handful of scallions to garnish this plate of steamed eggs with clams.

The vegetarian dishes are cold cucumber and lettuce in oyster sauce.

The soup is pork ribs soup. It is stewed with dried razor clams just before drying. Even if it is not fresh razor clams, it tastes the same delicious. Jiang Ran likes to drink dried razor clams and ribs soup.

Six dishes and one soup, at He Tiantian's strong request, Jiang Ran cut another plate of kimchi, including radish, beans and shredded bamboo shoots.

Except for the couple who came here for the first time, the others were not polite at all. They naturally knew that the Jiang family had a good temper when they came last time.

"This eggplant with minced meat is delicious. I don't eat eggplant at home."

"I like this chicken foot, it seems to smell like...beer?"

"It's the first time I've seen razor clams can be made into dry goods. This soup is delicious!"

"It's delicious! Brother Jiang, you are really good at cooking!"

"You bastards! I still stick to kimchi, my favorite!"

The old man Jiang hummed, "It's not that exaggerated, it's so-so!"

"Grandpa Jiang, you are too demanding!" A boy with dyed yellow hair said, he is also a man, he only knows how to make instant noodles, okay?

Jiang Ran smiled and said, "I can't do it well, but my grandfather is very good. He has been a cook for 40 years, so naturally he doesn't like me."

40 years!

The people present exclaimed, "It's true!"

The old man Jiang thought they didn’t believe it, and vented his anger, “I was thrown into an apprenticeship by my father when I was ten years old. I’m over 60 now, and 40 years is not too much! The chef in the Regal Hotel saw me and called me master. Leh!"

The boy with yellow hair gave a thumbs up, "Grandpa, this is you!"

"That is required!"

Mrs. Jiang drank the soup and listened quietly to her wife bragging.

Although what old man Jiang said was mostly correct, but the head chef of Regal Hotel, who has worshiped several masters, old man Jiang can be considered as the little finger.

After eating, they sat on the pile of rocks outside the door while waiting for Blue Tears, while digesting.

Jiang Ran saw that it was not dark yet, but where did the blue tears come from?

It happened that the group of children in Datou were going to the beach to pick up shells after dinner. A few students looked eager to try it. Jiang Ran could only prepare them with a basket and a few pairs of slippers, just the sneakers and sandals they wore. , high-heeled shoes, it is one thing to go into the sand and not get out, but the shoes are almost useless after soaking in water.

The low-tide coast leaves behind treasures, shells, seaweed kelp, and mussels that grow on the bottom of the reef, oysters, or crabs that hide inside.

A few urbanites, or young people who have never been in close contact with the sea, yelled for a while when they picked up jellyfish, and yelled for a while when they caught crabs. Write your name on it, draw a love heart, and then hug and kiss me. It doesn't hurt the eyes, but it is very sour.

If you want to say that young people are still open and don't pay attention to the occasion at all, it reminded Jiang Ran of a commercial slogan, as long as you love, say it loudly...

When it was dark, they went back to Jiang's house and waited for Lan Lei. Jiang Ran moved a few stools from the house for them to sit on.

Young people talk a lot, Jiang Ran has a good temper, what to ask and what to say, this night, Hu Tianhai chatted nonsense, they sat at the door until eleven o'clock, there was still no light on the dark beach, and in the end they could only return disappointed .

In the daytime of the next day, Jiang Ran and the old man Jiang went to the muddy field and came back. They woke up and talked about what they were going to do today while eating breakfast.

At noon, some of the group went to the rocks by the sea with their sketchpads and some with their cameras, and came back at night to wait for Lan Lei.

Mrs. Jiang liked this group of college students and insisted that Jiang Ran wait with them, saying that she was a guest anyway, so she had to entertain them well.

Jiang Ran could only sigh and let go of his warm blanket.

This time they didn't wait long. At about 08:30, a boy suddenly said excitedly, "Blue...blue tears!"

The listless few were shocked when they heard this, and quickly stood up and looked towards the sea.

"God..."
