As the village chief, I only raise bugs

Chapter 247 247. Ink=Ma Sui?

After chatting for a while, when a customer checked out, the fat woman complained.

He came here to find a place, and he couldn't help much, so he was embarrassed to ask about the tea, and asked Xiao Zhao later to see if she knew.

After a while, the dishes came.

In addition to the waiter who served the food, there was also a spirited old man who followed.

Jiang Chongshan estimated that the old man should be the "Cui Qiang" written on the wall who has won many awards.

Sure enough, when the waiter was serving the dishes, the old man said: "Several, thank you very much for ordering our special dishes. My name is Cui Qiang. This is my special butter chili. I hope you like it."

"Today is a blessing, Cui Bo cooks himself!" Zhao Lei said happily, "Mr. Jiang, you don't know, Cui Bo is very famous in our Shannan. He was a chef in the city at that time. Foreigner learned how to make stew pots, and combined with his experience, the stew pots he made are very delicious, you have to try them.”

"Before eating, please drink some soup to moisten your throat, and then eat the vegetables. The taste of the dishes can be improved a lot." For such compliments, Cui Qiang has heard too much, and he is already a little numb, so he doesn't say too much. He cared, but told Jiang Chongshan and the others directly.

Jiang Chongshan didn't have much interest in eating, because the more news he got, the less chance he would find. Seeing his mother's depression after a tiring day, how could he eat?
However, the most basic manners of being a man are still necessary. He picked up a spoon and put some venison and venison soup in front of his mother, then filled some himself, and took a sip of the soup.

"Very fresh!" Jiang Chongshan praised, and then asked, "Chef Cui, are you familiar with Shannan?"

"How can I not be familiar with it?" Cui Qiang smiled heartily, "I am already seventy, and I have hardly been out of Shannan in my life."

Jiang Chongshan gave Jin Hongjun a look, and she got up and went out to get wine in the car. When she came back, she heard Cui Qiang sitting there and said: "I haven't heard of Mo Mo, but if it sounds similar to this But there is a place, I wonder if it is what you are looking for?"

"Where?" Jiang Chongshan sat up straight instantly, and even Meng Pinghui and Wang Yongle listened attentively.

Jin Hongjun turned on the lantern and poured a cup for Cui Qiang.

The rich aroma of wine wafted out, causing Cui Qiang to sniff his nose fiercely: "Good wine! My old man has no other hobbies, but likes to eat and drink. Your tea is good, and wine is also good!"

Jiang Chongshan motioned for him to taste it, and then said: "We don't bring much of this wine. I'll send you two boxes when I go back. You can try it first today and talk to us carefully. I'll pour you some tea later." , because I only brought one box with me."

Cui Qiang picked up his wine glass, took a sip, and said, "I know a place called Masui, I wonder if it's the place you're looking for."

"Ma Sui?" Not to mention Jiang Chongshan and the others, even Zhao Lei was stunned. She worked there and traveled almost all over Shannan, but she had never heard of this place.

Cui Qiang explained: "The 'ink' you are talking about is 'Moshui' in our Shannan dialect, and 'Ma' is also the same sound, so I guess what you are looking for is 'Masui'."

Zhao Lei blurted out and asked, "Where is that?"

"Does Ma Fanzhen know?" Cui Qiang looked at Zhao Lei and asked.

"I know." Zhao Lei nodded, "Now there are several factories where electric bicycles are assembled."

"Yes, that's right there!" Cui Qiang nodded, "Actually, it used to be called 'Trouble' because the terrain there was complicated and there were many bandits since ancient times. They would run away when the government came, and they would come out to rob houses after the government left. It was very troublesome to manage. , so it was called 'trouble', which means that there is too much trouble."

"When I first decided on the name of the place, it was called Trouble Brigade. There are more than a dozen villages below, and one of them is in a ravine. It looks like wheat ears from the top of the mountain, so it is called Masui."

Cui Qiang also said: "When Trouble Township was established later, the leaders thought Trouble was not good, so they changed it to Ma Fan, and everyone who used this name there changed their characters. 'Ma Sui' is now called 'Ma Sui'. This name has been used for more than 60 years, and few people know the original name, except for the elderly."

"My family has a relative who lives there. When I was a child, I passed by Masui when I went to visit relatives." Cui Qiang took a sip of tea, "That's all I know, I hope it will be useful to you."

After speaking, Cui Qiang stood up: "There is still work in the back kitchen, please take it easy!"

"Uncle Cui, please take this wine and send you some when we get back." Jiang Chongshan picked up the remaining half bottle of Mingdeng Brew on the table and handed it to Cui Qiang.

"Then you're welcome, old man." Cui Qiang smiled, "I'll ask my son to prepare two dishes for you later!"

Jiang Chongshan hurriedly said: "No need, we can't finish eating these!"

Several people who got the news had no intention of eating, especially Cui Shuangying. She now wanted to fly to that place to see if it was her hometown.

In fact, she already believed Cui Qiang's words, because in her memory, she had lived in a ravine since she was a child, and that ravine was narrow and long like the Grape Valley.

Later, her mother said to take her to see relatives, and she followed her mother out in a daze. After a long train ride, they came to a very lively place, and then went around many places by car, and finally started to walk. When there was no other way, we arrived at Guzhai.

Since she was a child, she knew that she was not from Guzhai, and she asked many times later, but her mother never said where she was from. In addition, it was okay to live in Guzhai, and the people here took good care of them. Slowly , she regarded herself as a lonely person, especially after marrying Jiang Baixiang and having Jiang Chongshan.

Mother has been dead for so many years, it's not that she never thought about looking for her hometown, but at first Jiang Chongshan was a small child, and the conditions at home were not good. Later, with the improvement of conditions, Jiang Chongshan also went to college, but she didn't have any clues. I don't even know how to find it.

Until this year’s New Year!

Seeing his mother's excitement and hesitation, Jiang Chongshan gave her a piece of pig's trotters: "Mom, eat first. After we are full, we will go to the 'Ma Sui' that Cui Bo mentioned."

Jiang Chongshan understands her mother, if she doesn't go tonight, she won't sleep well all night, although she won't say it.

"Is it too late?" Cui Shuangying hesitated when his son said this.

"It's not too late!" Meng Pinghui also advised, "It's not even eight o'clock yet. Let's eat quickly and set off at eight o'clock. People are sleeping late now. Let's go directly to the village director. If you are really from there, The village director should know something about it."

Zhao Lei also persuaded: "Auntie, we are a small town in Shannan. I know where Ma Sui is. We can drive on the Ring Road and get there in half an hour at most."

Cui Shuangying looked at these young people, and then said, "Then? Shall we go after dinner?"
