Chapter 1708: Eating Bran and Vegetables

The first to arrive in the afternoon were the male college students from the city.

Five men brought three girlfriends, totaling eight people.

As poor college students, everyone's dating was simple; the boys slept on a large floor mat, the three girls slept in a twin room, and no one was unhappy at all.

Just kidding!

Where else would a philanthropist not only let them come to play on the weekend but also provide food and lodging? If they asked for more, wouldn't they be too clueless?

As for the boyfriend who brought them to take advantage of this bargain, he naturally needed to be highly praised—

"You actually didn't exaggerate, and you didn't lie!"

She really is a fairy-level figure, so beautiful!!!

And this beauty isn't the kind of feeling that looks especially good on camera; instead, it has a charm of being particularly full of blood and energy and especially healthy!

Although they hadn't started working yet, the simple college girls who were already sub-healthy were deeply envious.

The boys puffed out their chests again, proudly saying: "Of course! I told you this boss is very good-looking, and her boyfriend is also very good-looking. You didn't believe me before..."

After some fussing, everyone put away their change of clothes and went out for a stroll, not minding the heat at all.

Coming here had an unexpected surprise, which was that the destination was the now-popular local attraction—Yunqiao Village!

Don't look at what Yunqiao Village is famous for now, like tofu and vegetables; in fact, the summer scenery is not bad at all!

Of course, the river beach can only be viewed from afar, but as long as you have the energy, there are fields of sunflowers on the stone slope further away!

By August or September, the pomegranates all over the mountain should be bright red.

By late autumn, there are wild chrysanthemums all over the mountains and plains.

In short, there is good scenery all year round, and the college students are not picky at all.

The young people who hadn't visited many attractions were extremely satisfied. If it weren't for the scorching sun right now, seeing the spacious, empty sports field in the village that didn't require advance booking, they would have wanted to drag Song Qiao Song Qiao over immediately.

Everyone walked until they were covered in sweat, but they didn't forget to ask the boss on WeChat:

"Where are we eating tonight?"

This is really...

Song Tan was also between laughter and tears: they took the bus at two o'clock in the scorching sun, and now, after wandering around until past three, they still hadn't forgotten about dinner!

In this weather and temperature, even Pearl, who loves exercise the most, and her dozen piglets don't like to go out and wander around now.

Even if she emphasized repeatedly that it was just an ordinary dinner, she couldn't stop the young people with good appetites!

Therefore, Song Tan sent the location directly: "This is the canteen, and dinner starts around eight o'clock. If you are hungry, you can buy something at the small shop to pad your stomachs first."

Everyone touched their stomachs: "Dinner is so late."

But this time was to ensure the people working in the fields, so they had no choice but to stroll to the small shop to take a look first—

It's really hot, let's buy a popsicle to cool down first!

Who knew that when they went to the small shop, the freezer was placed in the most convenient spot outside, but why were rows of super-large water bottles placed in the C-position on the counter inside?

"I know, I know!"

A girl suddenly felt annoyed: "I've seen it on the internet, saying that when you come here, you must bring your own super-large water bottle because the free tea on the mountain is really too delicious. It's just that it's also really refreshing, so if you drink it, you have to drink it in the morning; you can't touch it at night..."

"Not afraid!"

The boys who hadn't tasted good things were full of confidence:

"I'm naturally immune to these things. I won't be affected at all after drinking it, and I'll sleep fine at night!"

But this water bottle costs several tens of yuan, and they are so poor that they can't bear to spend money on this; they'll just go to the canteen at night and drink from a disposable cup!

When exercising, just drink iced mineral water; it's only one yuan a bottle, anyway, it's much more cost-effective than this large water bottle.

It's so big, they don't usually use it anyway!

The proprietress of the small shop raised her eyelids and glanced at them.

Everyone who just came here said that, and in the end, didn't they all come back to buy water bottles?

She is going to get goods now, and people don't understand why this thing sells so well in the town.

Even if there is an engineering team under construction, every worker bought one, and it should have been fully equipped for so long, right?

As a result, it's like a consumable; it won't be long before they come to stock up on a batch of goods...

The wholesaler was confused, while the proprietress let this group of poor students point at the freezer, and in the end, the most expensive thing the group bought was a 2.5 yuan Choc-Ice.

After finishing, they had to comment: "Why are there so many 'ice cream assassins' in this village's small shop?"

The proprietress finally laughed—don't look at her selling them, but when she stocked these ice creams, her heart was also trembling:

What kind of ice cream costs eight or nine yuan for one wholesale! There are even more expensive ones, she just couldn't bear to stock them.

Simply outrageous.

"Many people come from the city every weekend. Young people are more willing to spend money on this, so I stocked some. In the village, what people eat the most is still those old-fashioned popsicles, red bean bars, and the like."

Sigh.

Luxury is for others.

The college students bit into the old popsicles and asked: "Auntie, is the food in Boss Song's mountain canteen delicious?"

"That must be delicious!"

The proprietress didn't hesitate.

"Master Jiang on the mountain used to be a chef with an annual salary of one million in a hotel! Now that he's cooking in this canteen, how could his skills not be good?"

"And those fresh vegetables and meat are all delivered fresh from the town every day, not wilted at all."

There is no such thing as a stranger in the town.

No matter who it is, they can pull up some kind of relative relationship. The vegetable and meat deliverers rode their tricycles back and forth, and within two days, they had been figured out by everyone.

After chatting a few words with relatives, everyone knew how well the Song family ate.

However, even if they didn't ask, they could taste whether the things were fresh or not.

In short, the proprietress was very certain: "It's delicious, it's just not open to the public! If it were open, I would rather pay to eat there."

Otherwise, in this summer, you have to cook by yourself, covered in sweat, and not only do you have no appetite after cooking, but most of what you cook is perfunctory.

Unlike that mountain canteen, the air conditioning is on all day long, not caring at all that the hot stove and range hood are sucking away the cold air, how luxurious!

The college students didn't know the inside story, but just hearing her be so certain, their hearts were put at ease!

At this moment, biting into the popsicle *crunch*, they opened their phones again to check the location: "Why don't we go to the canteen and take a look?"

Let's go, anyway, we're all covered in sweat, it doesn't matter.

The girls even held umbrellas, while the boys were embarrassed, and now they were already tanned black.

From Zhang Zhang Yanping's homestay to the mountain canteen, there is indeed a long uphill road.

In the hot weather, it takes quite a while to walk. But the young people have plenty of energy, and they don't feel anything at this moment; instead, they chat lively—

"Did you see the homestay boss? He looks so gentle! And quite handsome, I wonder if he has a girlfriend."

The girls discussed it, but the boys were unhappy.

"Hey, hey, hey, your boyfriend is still here, why are you worrying about others?"

"What's wrong with chatting? Besides, my roommate doesn't have a boyfriend yet! If I see someone who looks good, shouldn't I keep an eye out for her?"

"Then my brother is still single, why don't you say you'll introduce him?"

The other party rolled her eyes:

"What are you dreaming about? I'm willing to eat bran and vegetables because I can endure hardship; why should I let my roommate suffer like this? Can't I find her someone who is fair and handsome?"

Once this was said, the whole place was silent.

A moment later, the boyfriend looked at her suspiciously: "Why do I feel like you're scolding me?"

The girlfriend looked righteous:

"Who's scolding you? I'm so gentle, I don't even use dirty words."

"Is that so?"

"Yeah."

The boys:... They were just scolded, right!

And the girls discussed enthusiastically:

"Yeah, the boss is really handsome, that scholarly air is also very rare, it's just that I don't know why he's in the village..."

"No matter where he is, our city is also a small city..."

"He doesn't look much older than us, I feel like he's younger than my boyfriend. Hey, let's ask when we go down later, if he really doesn't have a girlfriend, I'll take a photo and show it to XX!"

Everyone was enthusiastic and lively, with a very positive attitude.

The boys wanted to say something, but remembering the appearance of the homestay boss, they were also silent at this moment.

They were just a bit dark because they exercised too much in the summer; when winter comes—well, when winter comes, they'll still be tanned, and they won't be able to get fair again.

Damn pretty boy!

Teacher Xin didn't know at all that he had been scolded. He just finished organizing the homestay that was fully booked again, and seeing Zhang Zhang Yanping sneak over like a thief, he couldn't help but smile: "The shop is fully booked now, your appearance actually doesn't have much impact, you don't have to be so careful."

"That still requires caution."

Zhang Zhang Yanping was quite smart: "If my identity as the homestay boss is known to everyone, the next time they quarrel and I show up again, I won't have such a strong deterrent."

Unlike now, whenever someone wants to make trouble, he stands there with a straight face, and the other party speaks much more politely.

He didn't come over to joke around now, but to ask Xin Jun:

"Have the college students Song Tan invited checked in? I'll come to replace you after dinner tonight, and you can go exercise with them too."

"Sure." Xin Jun wasn't completely without strength, so he nodded: "I'll make an appointment with Song Qiao Song Qiao and Chen Chi then, it's only lively when there are many people."

"What about you? Don't you want to exercise?"

Zhang Zhang Yanping:... He didn't want to exercise, and he didn't want to be a referee.

"I have to guard the shop, so you can play without worries! Go ahead!"

Xin Jun:...

Actually, it's not like they haven't been partners for so long, some truths don't need to be covered up like this.

After walking a long stretch of road, the college students finally saw the large factory buildings on the hillside.

On the hillside further away, there was also a row of brand-new buildings.

The girls compared it with the guide on the software, and while envious, said: "I heard that those are also employee dormitories, but they are all single rooms and family rooms, and the conditions are especially good."

For ordinary students from ordinary universities in their 18th-tier small city, if they could get these conditions after graduation, they would wake up laughing in their dreams.

And now, everyone stood at the factory gate following the boys, and saw a man in olive-green training clothes coming out of the guard room, with a majestic big dog by his side.

So, so tough!

Are the guards in rural enterprises now of this standard? The college students' eyes went dark, and they felt that their graduation season would be miserable.

Everyone was instantly stuck.

"That, that..." the college student stammered: "We were invited by Boss Song to play, we want to see the canteen..."

Chen Yuan had already mentioned this matter, the other party glanced at them and turned slightly:

"Go in. You can wander around the courtyard, you can't enter the dormitory, you can't enter the back kitchen of the canteen, and you can wander around other places."

As for the menu, it should be written on the small blackboard right now, they'll know after one look.

Because the weather was too hot, sunshade nets were pulled over the courtyard inside the factory, and the temperature was actually lower than outside.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, first rubbed their faces with the water faucet outside, and then entered the canteen on the side.

This canteen was wide and flat, cleaned very cleanly, there was no greasy smell in the air, and even the glass was shiny and bright, especially fresh.

There were very few windows, only one or two, but the disinfection cabinet on the side was huge!

The various tableware inside was layered, which showed that there were definitely not a few people eating.

There were also two large tea buckets in the corner.

The girl exclaimed: "This, this! This is the tea water that must be drunk as mentioned in the guide, right!"

"What about the other one?"

The boys looked at the one next to it.

"This one seems to have tremella soup sometimes, it's limited. If there is no tremella soup, it's ordinary soup, like sweet fermented rice balls, pork rib and kelp, or clear stewed mutton soup..."

The more they read, the more silent they became.

Everyone looked at each other, looking at each other in dismay.

How is this ordinary, is this also called ordinary?

Or is their clear stewed mutton soup also a big bone, stewing a bucket of water?

Instead, the tea water in front, which was noted to be boiled with old tea leaves and tea dregs, seemed ordinary!

"Maybe the ingredients are good?"

The boys still remembered the meal that was unforgettable that night, and couldn't help but guess at this moment.

But how good it was, they couldn't imagine.

The girls hadn't eaten it, only heard them describe it, so it was even harder to imagine.

But after searching around, they couldn't find disposable cups, so they couldn't help but feel very depressed.

"The water cup is in the backpack, I forgot to bring it."

After all, it's so hot, coming out to look around at the environment, why would you bring a water cup?

Even among their group of eight, only two brought water cups, and the rest drank mineral water.

Just chatting, they saw a young man take a towel and a pen, while nimbly wiping away the blurry handwriting on the small blackboard next to him, while replenishing the menu—

【Stewed Beef Brisket with Potatoes】

【Stir-fried Preserved Meat with Green Peppers】

【Cold Pig Ears with Pickled Peppers】

【Hand-torn Cabbage】

【Luffa Egg Soup】

College students:...

So is it only their university canteen that eats the worst in the world? Why can the food in the rural canteen be so good? Is it real ingredients?

Everyone swallowed their saliva together.

And the other party finished writing the menu, only then noticed them: "Hey, there are tourists here on Friday? The tea water is freshly boiled, go get it yourself—you know you can't use a water bottle, right?"

?? I'm here! ===== CHAPTER 1713 =====
