Chapter 45 Life is like a dream
"Oh? Where are we going? What to eat?" Lin Yue asked curiously.

In the world, every fat person is a foodie, and Lin Yue is no exception.

"Haha, let's go to Miyun Reservoir and have a fish head feast." Zhang Jie laughed.

"Oh? I've heard that the fish heads there are extremely tender, but I just didn't have the chance to go. Today, I must have had a good time."

Lin Yue was delighted to be interested in the unique flavor, and sailed all the way to Miyun.

Miyun Reservoir is located in the north of Miyun County, surrounded by Yanshan Mountains.Miyun Reservoir is the largest artificial lake in Asia, known as the "Pearl of Yanshan Mountain".It is the largest and only source of drinking water in the capital BJ.

He is not only an excellent summer resort, but also a famous fishing town in BJ.

Because of the high-quality water source here, the fish here is very delicious and tender.

The special fish feast made of reservoir fish has become a beautiful scenery in Miyun tourism, which has fascinated countless diners in the capital.

It was already 4 o'clock in the afternoon, and Zhang Jie drove to a mountain village surrounded by green trees and overlapping mountains.

The two walked into a restaurant of 'Lao Li's farm food' at the entrance of the village.

The decoration of the restaurant is simple, but it is very clean and tidy, with wooden tables and chairs, and even a wooden dish plate hanging on the west wall of the store, showing a unique local flavor.

At this time, although it was not time for dinner, four or five of the ten tables in the store were already seated. As the saying goes, "the aroma of wine is not afraid of the depth of the alley." I did not expect that this remote country shop could attract so many diners.

A young man in his 30s came over, wearing a nostalgic Chinese tunic suit, and asked the two of them what to eat with a smile.

Lin Yue looked at Zhang Jie, which meant: You can figure it out, this is my first time here.

Zhang Jie is familiar with the way, pointing to the menu on the wall and said, "Come here, of course, you must eat this stewed fish head in sauce, just order a two catties or more."

"Okay" The guy nodded and said yes, obviously this dish is the signature dish in their store, and every table of guests will naturally order it.

"Don't waste other fish scales, fish skins, and fish tails. You can let the master handle it. There is also a river prawn with leeks and cold pepper sprouts. By the way, get Chinese toon sprouts and spread firewood eggs. Yes, it's all done."

This guy named five or six dishes in one breath, all of which are the most distinctive flavors in this restaurant. Not only Lin Yue was stunned, but even the guy couldn't help but praised: "You are really an expert, these few days This dish, you can taste it at my house, don’t talk big, there is no other place in a hundred miles around.”

Then the waiter asked the two of them what to drink. Originally, this kind of delicacy would go best with white wine, but unfortunately Zhang Jie had to drive, so only Lin Yue ordered a cup, and Zhang Jie reluctantly chose a cup of black tea.

The two chatted while waiting, and Zhang Jie introduced the magic of this store to Lin Yue.

"Brother Lin, guess what the owner of this store used to do? I'll give you five choices: retired village cadre, chef, farmer, professor, and soldier." Zhang Jie looked at him with a smile.

Lin Yue didn't activate the soul guessing, he felt that he couldn't rely on this mysterious power.

Otherwise, I will not think, and sooner or later I will be disgusted by my soul.

He has to constantly improve his wisdom in order to form the ability to match the soul and bring out the highest level.

Village cadres?Most of the people who are active at the township level are used to intrigues. They are either depraved and complicit, or they are persistent and straightforward. They don't want to show off in their later years, they just want to be content with the status quo.

chef?It is possible, given their persistent pursuit of food, they may choose to open a unique restaurant by themselves, and continue to pass on their craftsmanship to people.

But this problem is definitely not so obvious, and most of it has a certain contrast with the real identity.

farmer?Now there are farmers in all walks of life. It is not surprising that a farmer with a dream will carry forward the food culture in his hometown.

professor?Today's education is declining. Professors and experts are no longer superior. They have also begun to face up to their own future. It is not impossible for some people to step into the society, put down their appearance, and do some ordinary careers.

But if it is a professor who chooses to carry forward the farm food, his courage is quite admirable.

As for the soldiers, they used to be god-like figures who were awed by a generation of Chinese people. With the disarmament, many people left the army to start their own businesses and achieved good results.

He didn't answer in a hurry, while observing Zhang Jie's expression, he observed the layout of the store and the actions of the service staff.

"Hehe, if I'm not mistaken, the owner of this store must have been a soldier before."

"Oh? How did you see it? Brother Lin, tell me." Zhang Jie asked.

At this time, a plate of Chinese toon sprouts and fried eggs and cold pepper sprouts had been served. Lin Yue took a bite of the egg, and immediately filled her mouth with the tenderness of Chinese toon and the smoothness of fried eggs, and her whole body was filled with the mellow air .

This is the real charm of gourmet food. After taking a sip of wine, the aftertaste is endless.

He took another bite of pepper buds, um, it was so refreshing, it immediately whetted his appetite.

It was a long time before he returned to the subject.

"Look, let's talk about the decoration style first. Although it focuses on nostalgia, it is not outdated. This shows that this person is not too old, and he has profound thoughts, dares to make breakthroughs, and does not stick to the status quo. This is not what a retired cadre can do. Yes, there are also chefs who will spend time on the dishes. They will not think too much about these things, and they may not be able to think of them. If a professor changes his career, he will show his talent everywhere. For example, the name of this restaurant will not simply be called ' Lao Li's farm food'. He may even inscribe it with his own hands."

Lin Yue shared his observations, Zhang Jie nodded frequently, and said again: "Then why can't it be a farmer?"

"Farmers now also have a lot of ideas and insights, and they also have a back-to-basics character, but look at these guys, their movements are neat and their eyes are calm, which is obviously the result of long-term training. They stand seemingly casually, with irregular steps, Straight and powerful, there is no one who did not have this effect during five years of professional training."

Lin Yue took another sip of wine and said with a smile, "This is the difference between a militia and a real soldier."

"Here comes the fish head." The guy just now came over with a large plate of sauced fish head.

After he put the fish head on the table smoothly, he smiled and cupped his hands to Lin Yue: "Mr.'s analysis just now is very correct. Our boss was a soldier back then, and some of us also had military status. You are really observant, Great insight."

After Lin Yue said some polite words, the guy turned around to greet the others, and the two began to taste the famous fish head.

As soon as a piece of fish was in the mouth, Lin Yue immediately tasted the multiple flavors all blended into it.

A unique aroma of sauce, smooth taste buds, a little spicy taste and the elasticity of the fish itself make this dish fat but not greasy, salty but not fishy.

"The surface of the fish head is rich in collagen, and the meat is tender and delicate. People who like to eat fish heads first look at the nutrition of the fish head, secondly, the taste of the fish head, and thirdly, the fish head. The momentum of the head, the fish head is more nutritious than the fish meat, because there is brain gold in the fish head."

Lin Yue read it slowly, and it turned out that it was the description of fish head in a food column "A Bite of China" that was popular all over the country a few years ago.

The alluring voice, combined with the delicious taste, is simply irresistible.

Not long after, there was a large plate of fish heads, only a pile of fish bones left.

The chefs of this restaurant not only have high skills, but also integrate creativity into it, turning other materials on the fish into treasures.

After the fish scales are deep-fried, they are sprinkled with pepper and shallots, making them crispy and spicy.

Shred the fish skin, blanch it, and mix it with coriander, pepper oil, and sesame oil. It is a good beauty product for women.

Boil fish tail and white radish to make soup, which not only invigorates Qi but also nourishes the skin, what a fresh word!

The two of them ate the fish head banquet like wind and clouds, belching so much, and seeing the night outside the window getting darker, they paid the bill and left contentedly.

Walking on the road, Zhang Jie suddenly asked Lin Yue a question, "Brother Lin, tell me, why did we come out of the countryside and go to BJ?"

Lin Yue was taken aback for a moment, and then said: "To make money, honor your ancestors."

"But are you happy?" Zhang Jie asked again.

yeah am i happyThere may have been happiness, but most of the time, I was tortured by the pressure of life and didn't know what happiness was.

"Is that the life you want?" Zhang Jie continued to ask.

"Not at all, I want to live a free life, but it's too difficult to achieve." Lin Yue sighed.

"Actually, I am very envious of the life here. I am very envious of this retired veteran boss. He can look down on fame and fortune, pursue his dreams, and live happily. How wonderful." Zhang Jie said with emotion.

Lin Yue didn't answer, but he agreed with Zhang Jie's thoughts in his heart.

Many people have pursued for a lifetime, but in the end, they are trapped by fame and fortune, unable to live an ordinary life.

Life is like this fish head, the real taste can only be seen in the ordinary.In the ordinary, great wisdom is revealed.

The night wind is cold and the night is dark. On the road leading to BJ and life, a car is moving forward.
