Chapter 794(1/2)
Identity is indeed a big issue. With three strong brothers, it is particularly difficult for Li Hao to make friends. When he was in the capital, he had to guard against those guys with ulterior motives every day.
Especially when drinking, be sure to keep some alcohol capacity. Otherwise, when you wake up, there may be a beautiful woman next to you. It doesn't matter whether you are responsible or not, as long as you can sleep with her.
As one of the few diamond kings in the capital, Li Hao is regarded as a Tang monk in the eyes of minister-level officials. When Zheng Sen sees Li Hao, he always mentions that he has a beautiful sister, hoping to have a beautiful sister.
It’s time to ask Li Hao to go home and sit down.
Shi Kefa was more direct, saying that he had a grandniece who admired Li Hao very much and would come to his house to take him away.
Li Hao's unwillingness to stay in the capital has something to do with a group of old foxes in the capital who are trying to make ends meet with him.
It was a rare occasion to socialize with a group of people of similar age today. Li Hao was very interested in today's dinner.
The dinner was held in a restaurant in an alley near Huimin Street. It looked small from the outside, but when you walked in, you found that it was really big inside. The peach blossoms in the yard were very gorgeous, and the whole yard was filled with fresh air.
.
Although spring starts relatively early in Xi'an, the temperature is also very low at night.
The heating has long since stopped, and a warm fireplace is burning in the hall. There are two rows of huge dining tables, covered with snow-white white cloth. They are filled with all kinds of delicious things, including one-inch square beef with sauce, sliced into pieces.
The roast leg of lamb…
The food has a strong Western style, and there is absolutely no stew in the barbecue. Even ham and other things are mostly served cold. There are a lot of canned fruits in the glass plate. Fruits are precious in spring, so you can only eat some canned fruits.
.However, canned fruits are not something that ordinary people can often eat.
People who came in first picked up their tweezers and forks and put things on their plates. Then they put them aside and ate and chatted with friends they could chat with.
Li Xiao once organized a buffet in the capital two years ago. Since then, this novel way of banquet has been greatly praised, especially young men and women, who are even more enthusiastic about this way of banquet. Buffet in Xi'an
, this was the first time I met Li Hao.
At the end of the dining table, there is a wine tower made of stacked goblets. The wine tower contains bright red wine, which is also the favorite of young people. Especially when young women gather, wine has almost become a must-have drink.
Of course, when Ao Ye and Man Ye were here, this kind of thing was called mouthwash. They liked the fierce and overbearing white wine instead of the mild grape wine. The violent blood has been poured into their
Every cell. After drinking a bottle of Wuliangye, it will definitely become a character that strangers should not approach.
Uh... or even acquaintances, don't get close!
Shi Chun took two glasses of wine, handed one to Li Hao, and pointed at the beautiful women in scantily clad clothes not far away: "These are here for fun tonight. If you like them, go over and strike up a conversation. Maybe we can kiss them!"
"
Li Hao has never been to a brothel, but he also knows the rules of this era. These women who are engaged in flesh and blood business are fundamentally different from the secret traps outside. They were bought when they were young, and then taught music, chess, calligraphy and painting, and were raised like rich families.
A thousand pieces of gold makes no difference.
When you become an adult, you don't accept everyone. You need to be good at poetry or have other talents to be favored by beauties. It's not like those women in the secret door who take off their pants without asking anything.
Or to put it another way, these women are called prostitutes, while those in the secret door are called prostitutes. There is an essential difference between the two. Prostitutes are really skilled women. But prostitutes can only be women plus two days.
Li Hao doesn't mind having some trouble with these women. People don't waste their youth in romance. As long as they don't marry back home, it's no big deal. When Li Hu got married, the Li family didn't have the reputation it has today. Otherwise, these two would
It is absolutely impossible for a woman to step into the Li family's house. It's amazing, it's just two outer rooms raised by Li Hu.
"And there's beer over there." Shi Chun pointed to the two huge wooden barrels on the table on the other side.
Beer is something new. It has only been two years since the Ming Dynasty drank beer. No one drank this kind of bitter wine before. Mr. Ao once thought of innovating the way of drinking. He heated the beer and drank it. As a result, the beer was hot and still...
Ao Ye threw it away without tasting it. In his words, it smelled like urine.
Of course, it was Li Xiao who took action to solve the problem. Put some ice cubes in a huge beer glass, and it is very refreshing to drink in the summer. For those who are brave, just drink from a basin.
You can also put this thing in the ice cellar for a period of time. After taking it out, a white wine glass filled with one or two five grains of liquid sinks into the draft beer glass. Li Xiao also gave this drinking method a name - depth bomb.
Although I don’t know what kind of bomb a depth charge is, drinking depth bombs is indeed very powerful. Mr. Ao was fucked twice. Although he vomited after drinking, he would always scream happily when he woke up the next morning.
This thing didn't exist in Xi'an before. I don't know where these two barrels of beer were obtained. I haven't heard of a brewery in Xi'an. Could it be that it was private goods carried on the airship?
Instead of taking the goblet Shi Chun handed him, he walked to the dining table and took out a huge glass beer mug. He skillfully used tweezers to pick up a few pieces of ice and threw them in, making a "ding" sound.
Go to the edge of the beer barrel and turn on the switch to let the beer slowly flow down the wall of the cup. This is the trick to beating beer. If you beat it too fast, most of the damn cup will be full of beer foam.
The yellow beer slowly poured into the draft beer glass, and the glass was quickly filled.
"Brother, can you help me get a drink?" Just as he was about to leave, a beer mug appeared in front of him, with a pair of hands like mutton-fat white jade on the handle.
Following the voice, he looked up and saw a slim woman standing next to Li Hao. The fragrance of orchids penetrated her nose faintly, and she looked at Li Hao's face with a pair of shy eyes. Her eyes were large, with standard almond-shaped eyes.
There is a bag of water inside, which seems to be pouring out at any time.
Seeing Li Hao looking at her, the woman blushed for a moment.
God! This was the first time Li Hao saw such a woman. The moment he blushed, even his neck turned pink. The light green floral skirt on his body made the blush on his face even more accentuated. It seemed like...a hibiscus flower emerging from the water.
!
"Brother!" Standard Beijing accent. If you don't live in Beijing for ten or twenty years, you will never have such a fluent and pure Beijing accent.
"You're from the capital?" Li Hao took the beer cup from the woman's hand and handed over the beer cup in his own hand.
"Well! I'm from Beijing. I escaped from the war-torn Guanzhong when I was a child. From my accent, are you from Liaodong?" The woman blinked her big eyes and had to admit that women are sometimes very lethal. Li Hao now felt that
The little heart is beating wildly.
"Yes! You have a very good ear." Li Hao drank a beer and the two of them chatted.
Shi Chun saw this scene from a distance, raised his goblet to Li Hao, and then left with a woman in red in his arms.
After drinking another cold beer, Li Hao picked it up and took a sip. Not to mention that the taste was very authentic. The authentic Yanjing beer must have been a private product carried by the airship.
"Brother, what are you going to eat? I'll help you get it. You can get me some wine and I'll help you get the food." The woman smiled, revealing two sweet dimples on her face.
"Bring some beef as you like, it's chewy!" Li Hao did not refuse the woman's kindness.
The woman gave Li Hao some beef and two lamb chops. Her bowl and plate were all filled with canned fruits. After thinking about it, she went to give Li Hao a small plate of cucumbers.
"I feel tired of eating these alone, so I might as well add some cucumber."
Naturally, the two of them chose a table in the corner and started eating.
"How did you...!?"
"How did you...!?"
They both spoke at the same time and were stunned for a moment.
"you say……!"
"you say……!"
They spoke at the same time again, and this time they both covered their mouths and laughed.
"You can call me Brother Hao. What's your name? I can't always call you... or someone else!" Li Hao felt that as a man, he should speak first.
Although he is one of the top dandies in the capital, over the years, Li Hao has obviously spent more time in the deep mountains and old forests than in the romantic world. Regarding picking up girls, this basic dandy skill, Li Hao has not mastered it very well.
.
Maybe! This is also related to the fact that Li Hu is fighting outside all year round. Otherwise, with Li Hu's style, it would be too easy to lead this fourth brother astray.
"I am Xiaorong from Qingya Building!" The woman blinked at Li Hao.
Qingya Building! As you can tell from the name, this is not a quiet and elegant place.
However, Li Hao still nodded. Shi Chun said that the women who came today are all outstanding elites in the industry in Xi'an.
"Only eat canned fruit?" Li Hao started to find something to say. He really didn't know what to say to the girl at this time. He couldn't be like Scar, who just slapped a pile of silver coins on the table: "Sing ten verses for me."
Eight touch...!" It seems that the atmosphere in front of me is not suitable for singing such a song.
"I loved eating it when I was a kid, so I ate some when I saw it today. When I was a kid, these things were rare. They were all trafficked from Liaodong, and the most common ones were canned apples and yellow peaches."
"There were a lot of yellow peaches! There wasn't much to eat in the winter at that time, and apples were very durable. Everyone would save some apples in the winter. Peaches were different. Jinzhou produced peaches in the summer, but they would go bad if they were left out for a long time in the hot weather. There was no way.
, can only be canned and stored.
At that time, you could make a lot of money by selling it to the capital in winter. But at that time, it was not a glass bottle like this, but a porcelain bottle with a seal on it." Li Hao treasured the original peach cans very much.
At that time, there was a cannery in Jinzhou, and its main product was canned peaches. When he and Xiaoyu had nothing to do, they often took a boat to the peach cannery.
When Li Xiao first became influential in Liaodong, the canned food industry was also an important source of income. Especially the ladies in the harem, they often accepted the canned fruits from Li Xiao's tribute. Of course, these women also helped Li Xiao say good things in front of the emperor.
"Yes! Yes! Yes! The peach cans at that time were like that. The more expensive ones were made of fine porcelain, and the cheaper ones were made of coarse porcelain. In fact, they were all filled with the same things. Daddy bought the fine porcelain ones once and came back
I said I was fooled." When talking about this topic, Xiaorong was obviously very interested and immediately hit the snake with a stick.
"Of course it's the same, but the fine porcelain one looks better. In addition to selling it to wealthy families, it also has to be given to the palaces for empresses. I heard that sometimes, Long Live will also try it."
"The happiest thing when I was a child was the day when my father gave out money. At that time, he would always come back with a can of canned food. At that time, there were many people in the family. My sisters and brothers and I shared the food. When it came to my bowl, there were only two or three left.
Petal." Speaking of her family, Xiaorong's eyes clearly flashed with sadness.
"My family has a large population, but I have three brothers above me, all of whom are older than me. The eldest brother is very busy and is away from home all year round. The second brother is also very busy and sometimes comes back to see us. The third brother likes to drink but doesn't like to eat canned food.
Every time I eat canned food, he would say it is for women." Thinking of those days, Li Hao fell into memories.
During the days on Changxing Island, although I couldn't be with my brothers, it was really casual. I could play as I wanted every day. Due to the power of my brothers, the hired gentleman didn't dare to really do anything between him and Xiaoyu.
Sample.
As soon as school is over, the two of them do a lot of fishing, fishing and shrimping, climbing trees and picking peaches. The only good thing is that under the stick of the eldest brother, they are still good at mathematics. At least addition, subtraction, multiplication and division are no problem. Later, they learn mathematics with the eldest brother.
