In the late Qing Dynasty, there was a "Yiheju" snack bar in Shahe, located in the northern suburb of Guangzhou. The shopkeepers are Fan and his wife. They are kind and hardworking. They get up early every day, sell rice porridge and fried dough sticks in the morning, and sell dinner in the middle and evening. Their lives are quite stable. One morning, an old man in rags appeared at the door of the shop and fell weakly on the bluestone in front of the door.
A Xiang couldn't help feeling pity, and quickly asked his wife to bring a bowl of hot porridge to the old man. The old man said he couldn't eat for free. A Xiang said: "Although our store is small, this rice porridge is free for the elderly. You can rest assured to eat it!" Unexpectedly, since then, the old man has come to the store to eat rice porridge almost every day. Mr. and Mrs. A Xiang didn't abandon him. They always treated the old people warmly.
One day not long after, A Xiang was ill in bed. At noon that day, the old man appeared in the store again. When he learned of A Xiang's illness, he said, "It is difficult to buy rice in A Xiang, so it is difficult to recover. He is a kind man. Let me make a bowl of delicious food to give him an appetizer today! " When the old man finished, he soaked the rice in the clear spring water of Baiyun Mountain, then skillfully ground the rice slurry to boil water, then ladled it into a bamboo board and spread it thinly before steaming.
After a while, the rice paste turned into vermicelli. The old man peeled the skin, cut it into strips, added onion, salt and sesame oil, fried it and sent it to A Xiang's bed. A Xiang smelled this special fragrance, and his appetite increased greatly. After a few bowls, his condition really improved. He thanked the old man again and again and finally knew the origin of the old man.
It turned out that the old man was a royal chef in the palace. Because of his character, he was loyal and honest, offended Empress Dowager Cixi, and escaped from Beijing by luck. Since then, he has been hiding and looking around. The old man said, "This powder is from Shahe. Let's call it Shahe powder! I've been here for so long, and I'm afraid I'll bring trouble to my host's family if I don't leave! " Say that finish and left. Since then, Yiheju began to sell Shahe powder, and soon became famous and prosperous.
