"No," Grandpa Du shook his head.
With the idea of caring for the elderly who live alone in mind, and recalling Mo Qishen’s advice, Ni Yang continued, "Then let’s go have dinner together, I haven’t eaten either."
"Okay."
Grandpa Du originally thought Ni Yang would take him somewhere fancy, but instead, she took him to an unknown food street.
In the cold weather, the food street was bustling with people and the scents of various foods mingled together; it was quite fragrant, but for someone like Grandpa Du who was accustomed to high-end hotels, it was somewhat uncomfortable, mainly because such roadside stalls couldn’t possibly be very clean.
Grandpa Du glanced at Ni Yang and saw no sign of disgust in her eyes.
This person really isn’t picky...
In fact, Ni Yang wasn’t particular about food at all. She could be seen in high-end Western restaurants elegantly eating steak or sitting at a roadside stall eating spicy hot soup without any care for her image.
As long as it tastes good, what’s the fuss about? If you’re always worried about this and that in life, what’s the fun in that?
"Sit down," Ni Yang led Grandpa Du to a wonton stall and sat down, "Don’t be fooled by the simplicity of this stall; it’s actually quite tasty."
Technology is advancing, and the times are progressing. In the past, wontons were only available in Guangguan, but now, as more people start businesses, Beijing’s delicacies have also increased.
Grandpa Du leaned forward and sat opposite Ni Yang, placing the Buddha Beads on the table and taking out a handkerchief from his pocket, meticulously wiping the bowls and chopsticks.
Ni Yang raised her eyebrows slightly, this person is quite particular.
Eating at a roadside stall and still worrying about hygiene?
"Boss, give me a bowl of Chicken Soup Wontons," as she spoke, Ni Yang looked at Grandpa Du, "What would you like? They have rice noodle rolls here as well."
"The same as you," Grandpa Du glanced down.
"Okay." Ni Yang nodded and told the shopkeeper, "Then we’ll have two portions of Chicken Soup Wontons, and also one Spicy Duck Head and one gizzard, that’s all."
"Alright, just a moment."
Soon, the wontons and Braised Duck Head were served.
Ni Yang grabbed a duck head immediately, "I’m starting, don’t be shy."
First, she took a bite of the Spicy Duck Head, letting the spicy and fresh taste fill her mouth, then followed it with a sip of delicious chicken soup—it was incredibly satisfying!
Seeing Ni Yang’s satisfied expression, Grandpa Du also picked up a duck head and took a bite.
