Chapter 329

Gu Lu's job today is to accompany Su Xi shopping.

Since you have come to the United States from so far, it is natural to have a good stroll.

During the period of studying abroad for graduate school, Gu Lu stayed in the United States for two years.

But in those two years, Gu Lu spent most of his time in Princeton, where Princeton University is located.

As for New York......

Gu Lu has been here a few times once in a while.

But Su Xi is different.

Su Xi has been staying in the city from birth to graduating from junior high school.

It wasn't until he started high school that Su Xi returned to China with his parents.

Su Xi is half a 'New York pass'.

And Su Xi is temporarily serving as Gu Lu's tour guide in New York today.

"There's the Manhattan Bridge right in front of us, so let's go to Chinatown first. ”

Su Xi chose the first stop in Chinatown, which was very close to the hotel where Gu Lu settled.

Chinatowns can be found in many cities around the world.

It's just that Gu Lu hasn't been there in person.

New York's Chinatown is located right next to Goblon Park.

As soon as you enter Chinatown, the road is crowded with food shops, restaurants, coffee houses, Buddhist temples and haberdashery stores.

And most of the people walking on the road are Chinese with Asian faces.

The voices of the vendors on the roadside and in the nearby shops were all in Chinese, with occasional local dialects interspersed.

made Gu Lu feel like he was in a trance in China for a moment.

The two sides of Chinatown are not the rows of buildings like tubes as Gu Lu imagined, but small buildings next to each other.

The shop is open downstairs, and the people live upstairs.

Perhaps because the National Day is approaching, the entire Chinatown is very lively.

Gu Lu could even see the existence of dragon and lion dances.

Let Gu Lu have a strong sense of intimacy.

"This place is good, isn't it?" Su Xi asked with a smile while holding the steering wheel with both hands.

Gu Lu looked at the familiar buildings on both sides and nodded thoughtfully, "For some wanderers who have been wandering abroad all year round and cannot return to the country, this is indeed a good place to go." ”

Su Xi drove and stopped in front of a cold drink shop.

At the entrance of the cold drink shop, an old man on a three-wheeled bicycle set up a stall with keys.

The sun in New York is somewhat poisonous.

Gu Lu got out of the car and went to the door of the cold drink shop to buy two ice creams, and then hid under the shade of the tree with Su Xi and licked them in small sips.

Well, you buy ice cream in US dollars.

In fact, except for the fact that you can only use US dollars instead of RMB to buy things here, which makes Gu Lu feel a little sudden change in the style of painting, the rest really have the illusion of letting Gu Lu return to China.

For example, Gu Lu heard a conversation between a young man and a key master while eating ice cream.

The master with the key: "With the key, three yuan a handful, ten yuan and three handfuls, young man, are you worthy?"

Guy: "I, I'm ......"

Key Master: "You're not worthy?"

Guy: "I'm worthy, master, I'm worthy!"

The master with the key is not very good at ear, "What, you deserve it? How many do you deserve!"

Guy: "......"

Chinese culture is broad and profound.

Gu Lu shook his head and smiled unkindly, then took the leftover ice cream cone from Su Xi's hand, and prepared to throw away the garbage.

Next to the trash can, Gu Lu happened to meet a cleaning aunt.

Seeing Gu Lu coming, the cleaning aunt asked Gu Lu directly, "What kind of garbage are you?"

This question directly confused Gu Lu.

True-soul torture!

Gu Lu didn't know what to answer for a while.

"Hazardous garbage?" replied tentatively.

"Wrong! You're recyclable!" the cleaning aunt pulled out the ice cream cone from Gu Lu's hand and threw it neatly into the trash can marked with the word recyclable.

"Remember it next time!"

"Definitely, definitely!"

Gu Lu scratched his head and smiled awkwardly but politely.

"What's going on?" Seeing Gu Lu come back with a sneering face, Su Xi asked in a puzzled tone.

Gu Lu waved his hand, "It's nothing, let's go to the Chinese Museum you said." ”

The Chinese History Museum of the United States, located in Building 70 at the corner of Bayard Street, is also known as the History Museum of Chinatown.

In this history museum, the stories of the Chinese people who struggled to survive and took root here in the United States are recorded.

According to Su Xi.

Their Su family was one of the first major families to migrate to the United States.

And now.

Of the original families, only one of them still maintained most of their Chinese blood.

The rest of the families, in the process of constantly marrying with the local chaebols of the United States, have become authentic Chinese people.

Gu Lu was not very interested in this history.

But as a famous attraction in Chinatown, since the Chinese Museum of the United States is here, it is natural to go and see it.

Gu Lu took a brief walk around the museum.

No surprises, no disappointments.

"Find a place to settle for an afternoon meal, right?" Gu Lu said to Su Xi, who was standing beside him.

"If you go to eat Western food, or Chinese food? If you want Chinese food, I have a good place to recommend. Su Xi gave Gu Lu two choices.

"Chinese food. Gu Lu quickly made a choice.

Compared with Western food that he is tired of, Gu Lu is more inclined to try foreign Chinese food.

Su Xi drove Gu Lu to a small alley in Chinatown.

Far away, Gu Lu saw a 'beef ramen' sign hanging at the end of the alley.

Su Xi parked the car not far away, and then came to this small restaurant with Gu Lu.

This bistro is really a bistro.

The area is not large, only more than 20 square meters.

If you put it in China, it is commonly known as the fly restaurant.

The staff in the store, or rather the boss, are only two people, a husband and wife.

The men were somewhat chubby, wearing chef hats and mustaches.

The woman has short hair, and her appearance is simple and capable.

"Boss, two bowls of beef ramen, I want a large portion!" Su Xi greeted the boss as soon as he came in.

"Okay, two large bowls, I'm pulling, it's going to be good right away!" the proprietress responded.

Since it is not a hotel yet, there are not many people in the restaurant.

Su Xi saw that the proprietress went to the back kitchen to prepare ramen, so Su Xi leaned over to Gu Lu's side, and said in a low voice, "This is a couple from Lanzhou, who came here to accompany their children to school, and the Lanzhou beef ramen made tastes very authentic!"

Gu Lu nodded and shouted to the back kitchen, "Boss, my share doesn't want coriander!"

"Okay, then I'll give you more noodles!"

Two bowls of beef ramen were served quickly.

Gu Lu took a bite while it was hot, put it in his mouth and chewed it full.

"Yes, it's really authentic!"

Gu Lu gave a thumbs up.

Most of the authentic Lanzhou beef ramen can only be eaten in Lanzhou, and Gu Lu ate it once when he traveled to Lanzhou, and it is the taste of today.

In addition, the beef ramen at this small shop is not only authentic, but also the ingredients.

Look at this beef......

How thin, how transparent!

The key is...... It's as little as Shinmune's beef ramen.

It belongs to the kind that has been used for a year, and the cow has only suffered a little skin trauma.
