Ignoring the smiling man, Gu Manman raised his hand to push him away. I opened the door and got out of the car.

It's a distinctly remote neighborhood because it's still early and there's not a lot of foot traffic. Off the street are some small but clean breakfast shops. There is rising steam in the boiler.

"What is this?" Ask the person walking behind you.

"Let's go! Go for breakfast! Wrapping Gu Manman's hand in the palm of his hand, he led her to a small shop on the side of the street.

"How did you find these places?" Gu Manman was only surprised, it seemed that Xiao Beihan knew the pattern of City A better than herself.

Every restaurant, every street, he knows.

"I've always eaten in the restaurant in a regular manner, and it's good to come to this small place once in a while to relax." Xiao Beihan smiled, but his footsteps did not stop.

Similar to this kind of small place, Gu Manman also went to it when he was in France. Later, I went to other places with Anne to learn about the local clothing culture and experienced a relatively simple life.

The two stepped into a small shop hand in hand. When the chubby proprietress saw the visitor, she wiped her hands and took out a small notebook and a pencil that had been used for a long time and was almost a pen from the wide apron bag in front of her.

"The two of you look at each other, it's the first time you've come?" It's not that it's not an eye, it's just her polite words.

She knew by looking at the temperament of the two of them that they were not ordinary office workers. I don't usually come to this kind of place.

"First time here, try the breakfast here!" Xiao Beihan's face was not as cold as in front of outsiders, with a smile, without a little arrogance.

"Okay!" The woman turned around and quickly took out an order order.

"Everything you want to eat is here, and although our store is small, we have something! Noodles, buns, soy milk and porridge. We have it as long as you want to eat. The woman was very happy, and the two seemingly noble guests of the previous year spoke kindly.

"Good! Thank you! Xiao Beihan nodded and took the order.

It was handed to Gu Manman, who had been watching from the side. "Here you go!"

didn't shirk it, took the list and looked at it. Indeed, as the woman said, there is everything above.

In addition to breakfast, there is lunch and dinner.

"Then let's have two bowls of porridge and two steamed buns!" After looking at it, Gu Manman ordered.

"Okay!" The woman replied happily as she wrote it down.

"Hurry up and serve two steamed buns!" The woman turned to a middle-aged man who was topping the noodles. He used two large porcelain bowls to multiply two bowls of porridge.

"Eat slowly! These are freshly baked! The buns were already served on the table, and as soon as they were opened, the hot air of the xiaolongbao gushed out. A scent poured into Gu Manman's sense of smell.

I feel a little hungry. Just as she was about to take the chopsticks, the woman suddenly said, "Alas, wait a minute! ”

"What's wrong?" Gu Manman was a little puzzled.

But I saw that the woman quickly took two pairs of chopsticks and put them in boiling water to scald them for a while, and then wiped them clean with a paper towel.

"You are here for the first time, and you are noble people by your dress and bearing. I don't know what you are particular about, but the small store is honored to be patronized by you, come and try it! As he spoke, he handed the chopsticks to Gu Manman and Xiao Beihan.

With a smile, Gu Manman took the chopsticks and glanced at Xiao Beihan, "We don't have anything to pay attention to, seeing that the store is so clean, it is estimated that you are also a particular person!" ”

"Ouch, we are coarse people, we just think that we are making food for others. Be responsible for these, it's too messy, who still has the heart to eat? Eat fast, eat fast! Then another man came to the shop, and the woman turned and went to receive him.

Gu Manman took a sip of porridge, and a natural sweet breath spread in his mouth. It doesn't feel like what I usually drink.

I deliberately took two more sips, scooped a spoon and looked at it carefully.

"What are you looking at?" Xiao Beihan was a little strange about her movements.

"Why do I feel that this porridge doesn't look like what I usually drink?" Gu Manman muttered quietly.

"What? Not to your liking? Xiao Beihan looked at her for a long time, looking at her face with doubts.

Shaking his head, Gu Manman replied softly, "No, I feel much better than the ones I drank before." ”

Over the years, Gu Manman has drunk a lot of porridge. There are fast food restaurants, high-end banquets, homes, and other breakfast restaurants. But there are very few such natural fragrances.

"Hostess!" Putting down the spoon in his hand, Gu Manman's eyes fell on the woman who was tidying up the table outside.

"Hey! What's wrong? Not to your liking? Putting down the rag in her hand, the proprietress wiped her hands on her apron.

Gu Manman only smiled, "No, it's delicious!" I just want to ask how this porridge is different from others? ”

This made the proprietress stunned, different? Isn't the porridge all the same?

"Boss, how do you make porridge? Why does it taste different from others? It's delicious! Xiao Beihan, who was on the side, saw that the woman didn't know why, and opened his mouth again to explain Gu Manman's question.

Only then did the woman react and smiled, "The way to cook porridge is the same, where is the reason for how to do it?" ”

"Then how can there be a sense of fragrance?" Gu Manman asked again.

The woman thought for a moment, "I guess it's a different rice!" It's grown at home. I have been farming for many years, and then I stopped making money, so I made breakfast at this shop. They are all home-grown rice. ”

She didn't speak, but she heard the woman speak again, "You must have eaten carefully processed rice, not as coarse as we have here. It's just that sometimes the rougher the part, the more primitive it is. ”

The woman's words seemed to be with a literary atmosphere, but Gu Manman smiled and said nothing.

The woman didn't stop, as if she was stuck in some kind of memory, "A pot of porridge must be cooked viscous to have a taste, and there is a need to pay attention to what kind of rice and what heat, and when to serve it." It's the same with people, which step is wrong. The results that follow will be affected. ”

Gu Manman glanced at Xiao Beihan, but saw that he was looking at himself with a smile, lowered his head and ate slowly without speaking.

As the time progressed, the number of people in the store gradually increased. Because it's the weekend, everyone doesn't have to go to work, and they sleep until they wake up naturally and eat breakfast, and people have slowly come out.

After the meal was ready, it was almost over, but the proprietress insisted on not charging the money.

The reason for giving it turned out to be because she and Xiao Beihan were the first customers to open today, so they didn't have to give.

It's just that Gu Manman, where is he willing? They are all small businesses, how can they take advantage of them in vain?

In the end, the proprietress still couldn't bear Gu Manman's insistence, and only symbolically said a price and charged a little.

When leaving, she and Xiao Beihan remembered to come back next time.
