"Hello, we would like to ask you a few questions, is that okay?"
"Yes, we just ask you a few simple questions."
"We just want to ask you what you think of Father Feng's restaurant."
…
The people queuing outside Su Ji were soon questioned by three soft voices, and most of them looked in the direction of the voices.
You will see three little girls, Feng Ruoruo, Yang Xiaoxi and Chen Yaofei. They are not distributing snacks today, but are helping with some interviews.
Usually the three little girls would come forward first and help Li Feier ask the people in the queue whether they were willing to be interviewed.
If the other party nodded in agreement, the three little girls would immediately wave and call Li Feier and the others over.
At the beginning, because the three little girls were too enthusiastic, they greeted a lot of people in the queue for Li Feier and her friends, which resulted in Li Feier being unable to interview them all at once. She could only apologize to everyone one by one.
Then, Chen Yaofei’s grandparents came out and held the three little girls.
Li Xiuchun smiled and said, "You three little guys are too enthusiastic. You asked people one by one if they were willing to be interviewed. How could Xixi's mother interview all of them if you asked so many people at once?"
Chen Shoulin said, "You should wait a while before asking. Wait until Xixi's mother finishes interviewing one person, then you can go and help ask the next person. Do you understand?"
After listening to what Chen Shoulin and Li Xiuchun said, the three little girls nodded to show that they understood.
Chen Shoulin and Li Xiuchun also apologized to some of the people who were questioned by the little girl.
"I'm sorry, the child is a little naughty and doesn't know the situation. Please don't be angry. Please continue to line up and you will be able to go in and eat soon."
Most of the passers-by queuing just laughed it off and showed no sign of being angry at all.
Besides, how could I be angry when these three cute little girls were asking questions
"It's okay, kid."
"Hahaha, actually I quite like being asked by little girls."
"Yeah, we have nothing to do while waiting in line anyway, so it's nice to chat with the little girl."
"I think Chef Feng's three daughters are really cute."
"I think so, too."
When everyone was praising them, Feng Ruoruo, Yang Xiaoxi and Chen Yaofei felt a little embarrassed by the praise.
However, because they were in front of Su Ji's door and in an ancient street that they were familiar with, the three little girls would not hide even though they were embarrassed.
After hesitating for a while, the three little girls held hands and thanked the people in the queue.
"Thank you, everyone."
"Thank you."
"Thanks."
After being thanked by the three little girls, the people in line all responded with a smile: "You're welcome."
Then, Feng Ruoruo, Yang Xiaoxi and Chen Yaofei had nothing to do, so they quietly slipped over to Li Feier and watched her conduct street interviews.
"Have you read the slander about Chef Feng and his two restaurants on the Internet?"
"Oh, I saw that. I think that's just nonsense. Those who slandered us have definitely never been to Huaicheng, let alone eaten Chef Feng's dishes. Those who have only eaten the noodles at noon would not say those things."
"So if you were to ask Chef Feng to be the culinary representative of our Jiangsu Province Chinese cuisine menu, do you think Chef Feng is suitable?"
"Of course it's suitable. Chef Feng's cooking skills are beyond reproach."
Although the people next to her were not interviewed, they couldn't help but interject a few words after hearing what Li Feier said.
"I have eaten them in many places in Jiangsu Province, especially the most representative dishes, such as 'squirrel mandarin fish' and 'fried eel paste'. These are very representative dishes of our Jiangsu Province. It can be said that many restaurants have them, but I don't think they are as authentic as Su Ji's."
Once someone interrupted, the others naturally couldn't hold back and started talking too.
Everyone was talking at once, which made Li Feier a little confused.
And with everyone speaking at the same time, it also caused some noise.
At this time, Yang Xiaoxi suddenly said, "Everyone, stop arguing. Speak one by one, otherwise my mother won't be able to interview you."
Yang Xiaoxi's words suddenly made everyone quiet down.
Chen Yaofei also stood up and said, "Everyone, stop arguing. You can't let Aunt Li interview you properly like this. You need to speak one by one."
Finally Feng Ruoruo said, "Yes, we can't say it together, we have to say it one by one."
The three little girls made corrections together, which stunned everyone for a moment, and then everyone couldn't help laughing.
Li Feier smiled and said, "I'm sorry, the kids didn't mean to be mean to you."
The people in the queue all smiled and said it was okay.
"It's okay, it's okay. These three kids are right. We did seem to be arguing just now. We should talk about it one by one."
"Yes, we just talked about it together, but we didn't explain it clearly."
"Anyway, I think that Chef Feng is the cook from our Su Province on the Chinese food menu, so there is absolutely no problem."
"That's right. If Chef Feng promotes it, more people will definitely understand those dishes."
Li Feier said: "Okay, thank you everyone."
Next, Li Feier interviewed some people randomly and asked them about their opinions on the various slanders against Feng Yifan recently on the Internet.
Judging from the people interviewed, everyone generally believes that the slander on the Internet is completely groundless.
It can be said that many of the slanders are intended to defame Feng Yifan.
Li Feier and the others also felt from the interview that everyone was very supportive of Feng Yifan, as well as Su Ji and Ruo restaurants.
As time passed, it was almost noon.
Su Ruoxi came out and invited Li Feier and the others to come in and eat together.
Li Feier originally wanted to refuse. After all, there were so many people from the TV station, and it would be a bit embarrassing to trouble Feng Yifan and the others to have lunch at Su Ji.
However, because Yang Xiaoxi was there, the little girl reached out and held her mother's hand tightly.
Seeing that her daughter was about to pull her in, Li Feier discussed it with the people she was traveling with, and finally everyone had no choice but to go into Su Ji to eat.
What surprised Li Feier and the others was that in order to receive them, Su Ji specially asked them to go to the second floor.
Of course, Zhuang Daozhong and Su Jinrong were also on the second floor.
The reason why they arranged it in a private room on the second floor was to allow Li Feier and the others to take pictures of Su Ji’s most distinctive noodles.
Knowing that they could take photos, the provincial TV station's photographers were very excited.
After waiting for a while upstairs, the first thing that came up was the most traditional chicken sauce Yi Fu noodles.
A seemingly ordinary bowl of noodles.
In front of the camera, Zhuang Daozhong and Su Jinrong began to talk about this bowl of noodles.
"This bowl of noodles may look ordinary, but in fact it is different from the beginning of the process of mixing the noodles. Moreover, this bowl of noodles can be said to be the ancestor of today's instant noodles."
The following is an explanation of the origins of this Chicken Soup E-Fan Noodles and instant noodles.
It wasn’t the first time that Li Feier heard it, but it was the first time for the people from the provincial TV station to hear it, and they were all very surprised.
"So, this is the prototype of instant noodles?"
"It's really amazing that this bowl of noodles actually has such a history behind it."
"Sure enough, our cuisine has deep cultural connotations."
Su Jinrong then talked about the production process of Chicken Sauce Yi Fu Noodles.
"When kneading the dough, in addition to using eggs, you also need to add the first-class chicken soup, so that the noodles can have the fresh taste of chicken soup. This ratio can be said to be our Su Ji's secret, so I can't tell you."
Zhuang Daozhong smiled and said, "Hahaha, maybe you think it's a bit exaggerated, so you need to try it. Come on, try this bowl of Yi Fu noodles with chicken sauce, where the noodles are more delicious than the soup."
Then, everyone started to taste it.
When you actually put it in your mouth and start chewing the seemingly ordinary noodles, you will soon feel a different taste.
After being fried, the noodles do feel a lot like instant noodles.
But when you chew and taste it, you will feel that the noodles have flavor. After tasting carefully, you will feel that the chewy noodles are really more delicious than the soup.
The flavor is very unique, and while chewing, you may even feel like you are not eating noodles.
Those who come to Su Ji for the first time have only heard that Su Ji’s noodles are excellent.
I finally understood today after actually eating it, that Su Ji’s noodles are truly unique.
Several people simply couldn't stop eating.
In the blink of an eye, the people from the provincial TV station "slurped" their bowls of noodles, and even after finishing they still felt a little unsatisfied.
Seeing everyone finish eating the noodles, Feng Ruoruo asked: "Uncle and aunt, do you think it tastes good?"
The photographer was the first to say, "It's delicious. It's really delicious."
Yang Xiaoxi said: "Of course they are delicious, because they are made by Father Feng."
Chen Yaofei said: "Yes, everything Father Feng cooks is delicious."
The three little girls' words made Li Fei'er feel helpless and said, "You three should eat well. If you keep bragging like this, won't it be difficult for the uncles and aunts to evaluate your father Feng's cooking skills objectively?"
Yang Xiaoxi asked curiously: "Mom, why do we have to be objective? What is objectivity?"
Li Feier had no choice but to explain to the little girls again.
After the explanation, Yang Xiaoxi said confidently: "Then what Mr. Feng cooks is delicious, it's very objective."
Feng Ruoruo and Chen Yaofei also shouted: "Yes, yes, very objective."
Li Feier was also completely helpless. She was really made to laugh and cry by the three little girls.
Finally, the people from the provincial TV station also laughed happily.
"Sister Fei'er, you don't have to say so much. In fact, what the three little darlings said is right. Chef Feng's cooking skills are really amazing."
“Yes, this bowl of noodles may look plain, but it tastes really different.”
"Oh, I feel like I haven't even eaten a bowl of noodles properly before."
"Yes, there are so many things to pay attention to for a bowl of noodles."
At this time, Zhuang Daozhong said: "In fact, our own dishes are all very particular. Just looking at noodles, you may not know that we have many different kinds of noodles in our country."
Su Jinrong said: "Yes, the most common ones are dried noodles and homemade hand-rolled noodles, and the hand-rolled noodles in the north and the south are different."
The two old men started talking again, describing the various types of noodles.
It really opened the eyes of everyone including Li Fei'er.
The two old men even mentioned a type of noodles that were hollow in the middle.
Zhuang Daozhong said: "If you have seen those hollow noodles, you will understand that macaroni is nothing compared to them."
Su Jinrong also said: "Indeed, hollow noodles are really different."
Then the two old men also talked about hollow noodles.
Hollow noodles are very resistant to cooking, and are smooth and chewy after cooking. In addition, the noodles are hollow in the middle, so it is easy to absorb various flavors into it, so they taste really unique.
Before the two old men spoke, it could be said that no one present had ever eaten it, or even heard of, the existence of hollow noodles like macaroni in China.
Zhuang Daozhong smiled and said, "Hahaha, it's not surprising that you haven't heard of it, because that kind of noodles is indeed not common in the market. If you really want to eat it, you still have to go to the place where the noodles are produced to eat the most authentic ones."
As they were chatting, Feng Yifan personally brought over another batch of noodles.
Looking at the noodles that were being served, especially the various toppings, the people from the provincial TV station quickly started filming.
Feng Yifan looked at his father-in-law and uncle, smiled and said, "Dad, you and uncle are talking about hollow noodles? The ones from Zhangjiashan, right? Oh, and the hollow noodles from Shanyang are also a specialty."
Hearing Feng Yifan's words, Zhuang Daozhong immediately asked: "Oh? Yifan, you know about this too? You even know about Shanyang's hollow noodles."
Feng Yifan nodded: "Yes, I have. In fact, I have come across these before when I participated in some competitions in China, but I have never been able to see them in person and taste their craftsmanship."
Zhuang Daozhong smiled and said, "Hahaha, if you have the chance, you must go and try it."
Feng Yifan nodded: "Of course, I'll try it if I get a chance."
When Feng Ruoruo heard what her father said, she immediately raised her hand and said, "Dad, you have to take Ruoruo with you."
Feng Yifan smiled and responded to his daughter: "Okay, Dad will definitely bring Ruoruo with him when the time comes."
Yang Xiaoxi and Chen Yaofei naturally said together: "Dad Feng, we want to go too."
Feng Yifan smiled and said, "Okay, take them all with you."
At this time, Su Jinrong saw several people from the provincial TV station, all of them were looking at the separate portions of toppings and noodles, and they seemed to be a little curious.
He smiled and explained: "You must be wondering why these noodle toppings are placed separately
In fact, this is called "Guoqiao", and the reason for this is that in the past, many people who came to eat noodles were used to drinking a little wine before eating noodles. Because money was tight, it was often difficult to order other dishes, so they took out the toppings of the noodles and used them to drink first. "
Listening to Su Jinrong's explanation, everyone seemed to be able to see a picture of ordinary people's life.
