Chapter 603 Active eating
"You are..."
Song Lao looked at the people in front of him who were acting in unison, and was a little confused.
"Go eat!" Zhang Bo greeted him, "Hurry up, dinner is ready!"
"Is everyone going to eat?"
He seemed to be back in a trance when he was in school. When he said dinner, everyone rushed out so actively.
However, these are old men and women in their fifties and sixties. As for being so active for a bite of food?
"That's right." Uncle Zhang nodded, "Hurry up, it won't taste good when it gets cold!"
Of course, this is just talk.
Even if it is cold, the taste is still very good.
However, the food is still delicious just out of the pan, after all, it is not a cold dish.
"I…"
"Okay, let's talk about it when we have something to say!" Zhang Bo came to pull him directly, very enthusiastic.
"That's right, let's talk about it after eating. If you don't eat actively, you have a problem with your thinking!"
Others also came to pull him along.
So, Mr. Song was dragged to the cafeteria by everyone in a daze.
Not to mention, everyone's legs and feet are really sharp, anyway, walking is called fast.
In just a few minutes, everyone arrived at the cafeteria.
It was also the first time Elder Song saw the cafeteria here.
This cafeteria is very simple, and the inside is a simple staff canteen style, not luxurious at all.
However, before entering inside, I could smell the fragrance.
The scent was so strong that he couldn't help sniffling more.
The rejection that came to my lips also disappeared.
"Here, here you are."
In the blink of an eye, there was a clean dinner plate in his hand.
Then, he was led to line up.
The team walked quickly, and everyone quickly got what they wanted to eat.
Song Lao arrived at the front of the food, and the taste became more fragrant, which made him want to drool.
"There is fish today, eat more!"
Zhang Bo warmly helped him pick up vegetables.
"No, I don't like fish..."
Zhang Bo was taken aback for a moment, "You don't like fish?"
Without waiting for an answer, he said, "It's okay, that's the most delicious fish you've ever eaten! Let me tell you, this fish is very delicious! You won't be disappointed!"
As he spoke, he put a piece of fish on Song Lao's dinner plate.
Others also enthusiastically introduced, "Yes, this fish is delicious!"
Song Lao couldn't laugh or cry, how delicious is this fish?
He only eats a few types of sea fish.
Those sea fish have only umami taste, no fishy smell.
But today’s fish look like freshwater fish. Freshwater fish is generally earthy and fishy, and the meat quality is also ordinary. Anyway, he doesn’t like to eat it.
However, he did not refuse everyone's kindness.
Anyway, just once or twice, bear with it.
It’s a pleasure to get along with everyone today, don’t spoil everyone’s happiness.
Then, he took some vegetables and some fruit, followed them to find a seat and sat down.
He looked around, and everyone in the villa should be here.
In addition to these elderly people, there are also some young men and women.
Sure enough, everyone does not cook.
Still, the meals do taste delicious.
Song Lao felt that he was also a little hungry. He was not very hungry at first, but now he feels a little bit.
"Come, eat!" Everyone greeted him, and then grabbed chopsticks and spoons.
"Drink the soup first, today's soup is delicious!"
Today's soup is a very simple corn and carrot ribs soup, which is bright in color and sweet in taste.
"These corns and carrots are all grown by us, they are very sweet!"
"It tastes better when used to stew soup, the soup is sweet!"
Song Lao looked down at the soup in the stew pot.
There are some pieces of sweet corn and carrots in it, and two bones.
In addition to this, it is water.
Smelling the sweet smell, he picked up a spoon and took a spoonful.
He blew carefully and put the soup into his mouth.
Then, his eyes widened, "It's delicious!"
The sweetness of corn and carrots, together with the meaty aroma of pork ribs, the soup is mellow and full of flavor!
Song Lao is also a person who has eaten all kinds of delicious food. What kind of soup hasn't been eaten?
However, it is such a simple soup, but it has a different taste!
"Is it delicious?"
Elder Song couldn't help but nodded in agreement, "Yes, it's really delicious! The chef's craftsmanship is very good."
"It's one thing for a chef to be good, but what's even better is the material we have here!"
Others laughed, "The water here is good and the ingredients are good, so the soup we cook is so good."
"This has to be placed outside. You can't buy such a good soup for hundreds of dollars!"
"Mountain spring water?"
"That's right, these are all soups made from mountain spring water, and the water here is also very delicious! If you have time, you can go get some and make tea. It tastes very good."
Amid the compliments from everyone, Elder Song picked up a piece of corn and swallowed it in one bite. The fresh and sweet corn juice burst, and he was amazed again.
"This corn is delicious too!"
"It's more than that, everything else is delicious!"
Hearing what everyone said, Mr. Song has no time to admire.
He drank a few sips of soup, ate all the corn and carrots, and turned his chopsticks to the ribs.
"The ribs... are okay."
"Oh, these pork ribs are native pork bought outside. The taste is good, but it is definitely not as good as the ones we raise here."
People aren't mad at his generic comments.
Because ribs are not their pork here.
"There are pigs raised here?" Elder Song was very curious.
"Yeah, running all over the mountain, haven't you seen it before?"
"I seem to have seen a few pigs." Song Lao remembered how many pigs he saw on the way here just now.
The pigs are not very big, they walk around and stop to eat.
At that time, he was still surprised that the pigs here ran around without locking them up.
"Yes, those are the pigs raised by Ah Jing."
"Ah Jing said to kill two pigs before the Chinese New Year."
"Well, it must be delicious!"
Listening to their discussion, Mr. Song was a little confused, "Then have you eaten these pork?"
"Not yet, didn't you say that pigs are slaughtered only after the New Year?"
"Then how do you know these pigs are delicious?" He was very curious.
"There's no need to think about it!" Everyone at the same table took it for granted, "What's not good here?"
Seeing everyone's righteous expressions, Elder Song couldn't help but be dumbfounded.
Are you so confident?
Seeing his doubts, Zhang Bo smiled, "Try the others first."
"Yes, you eat fish first."
Song Lao is a little confused, why did the topic change here?
However, he didn't ask too much, but took a piece of fish with his chopsticks.
Before the fish was put into his mouth, he thought to himself, anyway, this is the only time to let everyone down.
However, after the fish was eaten, he was completely dumbfounded.
"How can this meat be so delicious?! There is no earthy smell!"
Seeing that he had never seen the world, the others all laughed, "I told you, the meat, vegetables and fruits here are all delicious!"
"Although the pig hasn't been slaughtered yet, the pork must be delicious!"
If it was before, Elder Song would say they were lying.
But after eating this meal and touching his swollen belly, he had only one thought.
—"You don't need to cook for me in the future, I just go to the cafeteria to eat."
