Xizhou North Railway Station.
Ye Chui looked around with a backpack in his hand. There were people coming and going in the train station. He searched hard and soon saw the target he was looking for - Lin Wei.
Half an hour ago, Lin Wei called Ye Chui using the landline at the train station, and without saying a word, she told Ye Chui, "Let's elope..." Then she explained clearly that she had a quarrel with Wu Haimei today, and Lin Zhengdao was in Yanjing recently. Lin Wei was concerned about her father and wanted to go to Yanjing, but Wu Haimei refused. The mother and daughter had a quarrel about this, so Lin Wei prepared to run away from home, and took Ye Chui with her to visit her father in Yanjing.
That's what she called elopement...
When Ye Chui knew what Lin Wei wanted to do, he was speechless. However, Lin Wei reminded Ye Chui solemnly on the phone: "Don't tell mom. I'm calling you because I trust you!"
"Okay..." Ye Cui felt that Lin Wei's behavior was a bit childish, but he finally agreed.
So, half an hour later, Ye Chui packed his luggage and went to the train station to meet Lin Wei.
Lin Wei jumped up to Ye Chui and said, "Ye Chui, you're here. Here's your train ticket. It's going to start in a dozen minutes. Let's get on the train quickly."
"Are you really planning to go to Yanjing like this?" Ye Chui was ready to make a final effort. Lin Zhengdao was dealing with people in Yanjing, and Lin Wei would not be able to help much if she went there at this time. Instead, it would cause more trouble.
Lin Wei puffed her lips: "Of course it's true, Ye Chui, will you accompany me?"
"Okay, I'll go with you." Ye Chui sighed. Since his girlfriend has made up her mind, Ye Chui has no reason to refuse, right
"Hehe, Ye Chui is the best." Lin Wei leaned close to Ye Chui's face and kissed him gently, then pulled Ye Chui to squeeze through the ticket gate of the train station.
It was the first time for Lin Wei to take a train. She usually took a plane for long trips. She felt very excited at the moment. Ye Chui, on the contrary, was much calmer. There were all kinds of people on the train. He held Lin Wei's hand while carefully looking around to avoid meeting anyone with bad intentions. It takes more than five hours to take a train from Xizhou to Yanjing.
The two found their seats according to their tickets. The train started slowly and Lin Wei's excitement soon calmed down. She leaned on Ye Chui's shoulder, not knowing what she was thinking. She was probably worried about Lin Zhengdao.
Ye Chui whispered a word of comfort, but didn't know what to say more in this regard.
At around three o'clock in the afternoon, Ye Chui watched Lin Wei and kept an eye on their packages, then went to the toilet on the train, where he made a phone call to Wu Haimei.
"This little girl actually came with me to run away from home!" Wu Haimei heard that Lin Wei was on the train to Yanjing with Ye Chui, and she was immediately furious, "Just wait and see how I deal with her when I get back... By the way, wasn't it you, Ye Chui, who instigated her?"
"Aunt, am I that kind of person?" Ye Cui said with a wry smile.
"It's hard to say." Wu Haimei asked doubtfully.
“…It was Weiwei who brought me to Yanjing because she was worried about my uncle, really.” Ye Chui said sincerely.
"I believe you first, but I warn you not to do anything to our Weiwei!" Wu Haimei warned Ye Chui solemnly, "Come back to me immediately after you arrive in Yanjing."
"I will try my best to persuade her to come back early." Ye Chui continued with some sweat.
Wu Haimei was a mother after all, and she kept on telling Ye Chu a bunch of things to be careful of. From a mother's perspective, she warned Ye Chu not to do anything to Lin Wei, and then asked Ye Chu to take good care of Lin Wei before hanging up the phone.
When returning to his seat, Ye Cui suddenly noticed that Lin Wei looked a little unwell. He was moved. Could it be that Lin Wei was not used to riding a train for the first time and got sick
So he hurriedly asked, "Weiwei, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell?"
"No..." Lin Wei shook her head with a pale face, "I didn't eat lunch, I'm hungry."
Ye Chui: “…”
"Ye Chui, I heard that meals are provided on the train. I want to eat." Lin Wei looked at Ye Chui pitifully. This girl ran away from home at noon and didn't even have time to eat.
But Ye Chui looked around and said, "It's three o'clock in the afternoon now. There are lunch shops there... But."
Ye Chui's eyes suddenly lit up. He saw a train salesman pushing a small train not far away, which was full of various snacks. Ye Chui suddenly thought of something and said to Lin Wei with a smile: "I'll make instant noodles for you."
"Instant noodles?" Lin Wei said with little interest, "I like it very much... But there is nothing I can do now."
"Haha, don't underestimate instant noodles. Wait and see how I make you a bowl of instant noodles. I guarantee that you will be satisfied." Ye Chui said with a confident smile.
Instant noodles are also called instant noodles, fast food noodles, cup noodles, and instant noodles. In Hong Kong and other places, they are also called doll noodles (ps: everyone must know this...). They can be seen in major supermarkets and retail stores on the streets. They are a kind of food product that is popular all over the world in the fast-paced life. Of course, most people don’t have any special love for eating instant noodles. Most people only eat instant noodles when they are in a hurry. No one would want to eat this convenient food when they have nothing to do.
However, this does not mean that instant noodles are not delicious. In fact, a simple bowl of instant noodles can still exude amazing charm with Ye Chui's god-of-food-level cooking skills.
The God of Cookery is amazing because he can transform simple ingredients into high-end and delicious dishes.
This also secretly fits with Ye Chui's gourmet realm of "big soup and inharmonious taste".
Seeing the truck approaching, Ye Chui hurriedly greeted the other party and then bought a bunch of things. In addition to instant noodles, there were also sausages, boiled eggs, beef jerky, dried bamboo shoots and other snacks.
The sausages are 100% vegetarian, made from starch, a food that has not been influenced by the vegetarian movement.
Snacks such as boiled eggs and beef jerky have only become popular in the past two years. Boiled eggs are eggs boiled in plain water. The tea eggs and braised eggs that were popular in the last life have not yet appeared. The taste of beef jerky is also much inferior. It is just a simple air-dried beef jerky with a very old texture and poor taste.
As for the other kinds of snacks such as dried bamboo shoots and spinach cakes, they are vegetarian snacks unique to this world. After all, the vegetarian food in this world is better than that in Ye Chui's previous life, and these vegetarian snacks taste even better.
I bought a bunch of snacks and the price was only about ten yuan.
The train provided boiling water. After Ye Chui tore open the packaging of the instant noodle cup, he took out the instant noodles and seasonings, went to get hot water, and soaked the beef jerky in it first. After waiting for five minutes, he poured out the hot water, got new hot water, and then put snacks such as dried bamboo shoots and spinach cakes into the instant noodle bucket and continued to wait.
This is mainly to allow the beef jerky to fully absorb hot water and become soft. Dried bamboo shoots and spinach cakes also need this soaking process, but because of their texture, beef jerky needs to be soaked in hot water twice, while soaking dried bamboo shoots and spinach cakes once is enough.
Another five minutes passed, and Ye Chui poured out the slightly cold hot water again, and poured half a bucket of hot water into the instant noodle bucket again. Only then did he officially start making instant noodles, and the boiled eggs were also put in at this time.
The passengers around had already noticed that Ye Chui was going back and forth to the train's water room to soak his noodles. It was extremely troublesome to pour the water from a bowl of instant noodles back and forth. Especially the young couple sitting opposite Ye Chui and Lin Wei, they couldn't help but burst into low laughter.
"It's just some instant noodles, is it necessary to go through so much trouble?"
"Could this person not know what instant noodles are?"
"You see him pouring out the hot water back and forth, I don't know why."
“That’s hilarious.”
Hearing these people's conversation, Lin Wei immediately puffed up her lips, and felt that she must make these people shut up when Ye Chui's instant noodles were ready. She had great faith in Ye Chui's cooking skills. Even if it was just an ordinary bowl of instant noodles, it would become a rare delicacy in Ye Chui's hands.
Ye Chui didn't care about the attention or mocking voices around him, and just prepared instant noodles by himself.
The boiling water on the train certainly couldn't be 100 degrees, it was about 80 degrees. Ye Chui estimated the time and felt that the noodles should have been softened, with the right hardness, chewy and delicious. Only then did he take out the sausages, cut them into pieces, opened the lid of the instant noodles and put them in.
The sauce packet and vegetable packet that came with the instant noodles were discarded, and only the seasoning packet was used, half of which was poured in. This was also adjusted according to Lin Wei's taste.
At this point, the instant noodles were light yellow in color, with just the right amount of soup. Ye Chui used disposable chopsticks to stir the noodles and picked up the beef jerky and bamboo shoots at the bottom of the bucket onto the noodles. Because they had been soaked in water, the beef jerky became plump and full of bright color, which was definitely more appetizing than the original beef jerky. The bamboo shoots and spinach cakes seemed to have completely regained their original vegetable texture, dotted in the middle of the noodles, and matched with the pink sausages sprinkled on the cakes, and the white, round eggs. In an instant, this simple bowl of instant noodles that could be seen everywhere actually exuded a certain high-end and atmospheric temperament.
This is not instant noodles at all; it is clearly a fine noodle dish that is only sold in high-end restaurants.
The aroma of the instant noodles seemed to have become different, mixed with the rich aroma of beef and the fresh fragrance of vegetables.
Ye Chui handed the chopsticks to Lin Wei and said with a smile, "Try it and see how it tastes."
"It turns out that instant noodles can be so delicious." Lin Wei couldn't help swallowing her saliva and quickly started to devour them.
The passengers sitting around him all showed envious expressions, and the young couple sitting opposite Ye Chui couldn't say anything -
"I didn't know you could eat instant noodles this way."
“It looks really delicious…”
"I want to eat instant noodles too!"
"Don't worry, I'll do the same with you later!"
The salesman on the train pushed the small truck through the carriages and soon came back. As soon as he entered Ye Chui's carriage, the passengers immediately became agitated.
"Give me some instant noodles."
"I want sausage and beef jerky, too."
"I want two."
Salesperson: “… When did instant noodles become so popular?” (~^~)
