Chapter 15 The City of Liverpool

Chapter 15 The City of Liverpool

The next day the weather was good, and although the sun did not come out, it was not as gray as yesterday.

Because I drank some alcohol last night and took a day's flight, I went back to the hotel to wash up, and I slept until 9 o'clock this morning before waking up.

After the two of them washed up, they went downstairs to the restaurant for an English breakfast, first a glass of fresh orange juice, then a large plate full of dishes, with an egg (usually poached eggs, but you can also substitute boiled or scrambled eggs), a few slices of fattened lean bacon (bacon is a type of bacon, or cured meat). It's made by natural drying of pork belly coated with spices and sea salt), some sautéed mushrooms, boiled cauliflower, a juicy belly, a slice of lightly seasoned and lightly grilled tomatoes, and a slice of black pudding and a large portion of fluffy bean stew.

Black pudding (BlackPudding) is a pig blood mixed with cereals, pork liver and offal minced to make a filling, and then poured into the pig sausage casing, made into a sausage, because the taste is similar to a British dessert - rice pudding, so it is called black pudding, it can also be said that it is the British pig blood cake! The British often eat with Li Pelin sauce with black pudding.

BakedBeans are to British food what rice is to Chinese or potatoes to Germans, and bread plays a major role in filling the stomach. BakedBeans literally translates to "baked beans" or "baked beans," but this dish is made by simmering soybeans in a tomato sauce.

It's not just breakfast, bean stew can be found at any time of the year in the UK. Due to the time-consuming labor and labor consumption of boiling beans, in the UK, it is mainly used to buy ready-made canned stewed beans, especially the oldest brand of Heinz.

Slices of golden toast are served at the end of the day, served with jam, cream and jelly to complete a rich breakfast.

Li Shenxing gave Xiaoli a brief summary of the full English breakfast - bacon, sausages, corn chips, hash browns, poached eggs, black pudding, stewed beans, mushrooms, all kinds of bread, all kinds of jams, all kinds of fruits, juices, black tea, coffee.

After the meal, Li Shenxing consulted the waiter and learned that there was a traditional market nearby, so the two walked hand in hand towards the market. The scale of this traditional market is quite large, anyway, there is still a lot of time, and the two are not in a hurry to leave, and slowly visit the exotic traditional market.

Vegetables and fruits are dazzling, they are all placed very neatly, each stall is very distinctive, very beautiful, not as messy as the vegetable market we generally see, the appearance of sewage flowing, but I want to be a beautiful pastry shop.

When passing by a stall, Xiaoli would point to the food she was interested in from time to time and ask Li Shenxing, Li Shenxing would tell her if he knew, and then tell her if he didn't know, and then tell her after learning from the stall owner, and the two would also taste some desserts that looked good.

In the end, I picked out some fruits that Hyo-ri likes to eat, and snacks to eat on the road.

After shopping, I returned to the hotel and checked out, pulled my luggage and boarded the train to Liverpool City.

Because it wasn't a weekend, there weren't many people on board, and as the train sped along the way, the scenery outside the window kept coming into view, with trees on both sides of the railway, and occasionally passing by a meadow with flocks of sheep grazing on it. Hyo-ri was excited to take pictures with her camera, which are rare sights in Korea.

After a little over an hour of travel, Liverpool is a little warmer than Manchester, with an average temperature of around 6°. Walking out of the station, Li Shenxing felt like home.

Take Hyo-ri on the bus at the entrance of the station, turn a few streets, get off, pull the luggage and walk a short distance, and you will arrive at the grandparents' house.

Pushing open the door of the wooden guardrail at the door, I walked in, and there were a lot of plants planted in the open space in the front yard inside the guardrail, and the grass was neatly trimmed, which showed that the owner was very serious.

Li Shenxing pressed the electric bell on the side of the door and waited for the door to open.

"Oba, what to do, I'm a little nervous. Standing at the door, Hyori said uneasily.

"It's okay, grandparents are very kind people, easy to communicate, don't be nervous, you are Lee Hyori! Seeing her uneasiness, Li Shenxing said jokingly.

"Lee Hyo-ri doesn't work when he gets outside. Hyo-ri muttered.

"Click. As the door opened, an old man in his sixties walked out.

"Grandpa, I'm here to see you, are you happy!" Li Shenxing said with his hand outstretched.

"Oh, my dear grandson, I am glad to see you. Grandpa opened his hand and hugged him. Patting him on the shoulder and letting go of his hand, "Why don't you introduce me to this beautiful girl?"

"Of course, this pretty girl is your granddaughter-in-law. Li Shenxing introduced with a hippie smile.

But Xiaoli bowed to his grandfather very respectfully: "Hello, grandpa, I am Xiaoli." "Introduce yourself in awkward Chinese.

Grandpa stepped forward and hugged her very warmly, "Good boy, welcome to you, come in!" After speaking, he turned around and walked in, and shouted: "Anna, Anna, come out and see, who is coming to see you." ”

Closing the door, the two of them walked inside, and Hyo-ri looked at everything in the house as he walked, obviously attracted by the traditional style of decoration. Walking into the living room and putting down the salute, the door in the backyard opened, and an old lady with silver hair walked in.

"Hey, grandma, are you happy to see me?" Li Shenxing walked towards her with his open hand.

"Oh, God, it's my dear little trickster who is here, and I'm so glad to see you. Grandma hugged him in surprise.

Li Shenxing introduced Xiaoli to his grandmother, grandpa brought out refreshments from the kitchen, everyone sat in the living room and chatted, during which Xiaoli also sent the specialties brought from Korea to grandparents, after a short understanding, they were still very satisfied with this granddaughter-in-law, with a good personality and a good chat.

After that, the grandmother took the grandfather to the vegetable market, saying that it was to welcome them and give them a taste of local dishes for dinner.

Li Shenxing took Xiaoli to his fixed bedroom, the bedroom was very clean and there was no dust, it could be seen that people often cleaned, put down the salute and sat on the bed and asked Xiaoli, "How do you feel now?"

"My grandparents are so easy to get along with, we don't have the same sense of restraint as we used to see our elders, and we feel like friends when we get along. Hyo-ri said happily as she fell on the bed.

"I'm really happy to see how well you get along. He said, lying next to her and hugging her.

"Me too, Oba. He rolled over and lay down in his arms.

The two hugged each other like this, didn't speak, and just enjoyed the warmth of the moment. It wasn't until the sound of grandparents coming back that the two got up, cleaned up, and went downstairs to help grandma make dinner.

Li Shenxing and his grandmother were busy in the kitchen, while his grandfather took Xiaoli to visit the room and explain the story of the photos on the wall, as well as how to pursue his grandmother back then, which made Xiaoli listen to it with relish.

The old man was bragging about his old days again. Grandma muttered.

"Who made my grandmother a big beauty, if I was born in that era, I would definitely still be a glove to my grandfather. Li Shenxing complimented.

Li Shenxing's compliment made grandma laugh happily: "Hehe, what a sweet-mouthed little guy, that's how you pursued your wife, right?"

Li Shenxing recalled the past acquaintance with Xiaoli in an instant, and the corners of his mouth hooked up the arc of happiness.

"Uh-huh!" Grandma raised an eyebrow, "Looks like this is a romantic story!"

"My encounter with her was guided by God and destined to be together. Turning his head, he winked at Grandma, "Just like you and Grandpa." ”

Grandma touched his face and said: "Marriage is a lifelong learning, and it is more difficult to run a marriage than a business, I hope you can tolerate each other, be considerate, respect, cherish, and don't hurt each other, a life is very long and short." ”

Li Shenxing put down the work in his hand and hugged his grandmother, "We will, thank you." He knew it was his grandmother's marriage experience.

"Hey, man, how long are you going to hold my girl, do you want me to throw your gloves?" said Grandpa as he stood at the kitchen door with his hands folded and laughed, standing behind him.

"I've been troubled, come and help, dinner hasn't been ready yet!" said to grandpa when she let go of her grandson.

Grandpa saluted and said, "Yes, my queen." With a smile, he walked up to his grandmother, kissed her on the cheek first, and then helped with the vegetables.

Hyori stood in the doorway, looking at him tenderly, apparently she had heard the conversation just now.

Li Shen walked forward and gave her a gentle kiss. "Let's help out. He dragged her into the kitchen.

Everyone worked together to help, and dinner was quickly prepared.

Dinner was plentiful, with roast lamb and pudwurst [pudwurst is a traditional British dish. The main ingredients are sausages and batter for Yorkshire pudding, which are usually served with vegetables and gravy. ], Irish stew, apple pie, etc.
