Chapter 25: Happy Birthday
Night.
Beijing Exhibition Hall, Moscow Restaurant.
Many people have a soft spot for this place, just because it is a lingering memory of childhood, and people who grew up in that red era have deep memories of it, and affectionately call it "Lao Mo!"
Today it has become a special cultural symbol, bearing the imprint of that era.
At that time, most of the people who went to Lao Mo to eat were the children of high-ranking cadres in the army compound, senior intellectuals, overseas Chinese, etc., for the children who grew up at the foot of the imperial city, especially the children of the courtyard, Lao Mo left more green memories of calling friends and chatting with Haikan.
Buddy, Fa Xiao, classmates, comrades-in-arms, a group of friends spent their minds together to learn how to get together and "pinch" Lao Mo.
If there is any big thing, difficult matter, and asking others to do something, the most classic Beijing mantra is, "After the matter is completed, please go to Lao Mo to make a meal".
At that time, it was quite face-saving to eat at Lao Mo.
Many years later, these scenes of "just classmates and teenagers, scolding Fang Xuan" have repeatedly appeared in film and television dramas.
For example, in "Sunny Days", Wang Shuo played the role of the stubborn protagonist Ma Xiaojun, and he picked up a glass of wine very proudly, said to everyone, "All brothers in the four seas" and then drank it all. Lao Mo also appeared in "Blood Romance".
Lao Mo is the first Western restaurant in Beijing, inviting Soviet master chefs, not only the architectural style is Russian, but the interior decoration is also Russian.
Walking into Lao Mo, there is a feeling of stepping into the WYN concert hall, with marble walls and floors, gold is the main color.
On both sides of the front wall, the sculptures of hunters with guns and fawns are reminiscent of the hunting life of the steppes of South Russia, and even the chandeliers on the ceiling are authentic Russian-style lamps purchased during the Soviet era.
Under the eight-meter-high dome, in the banquet hall of more than 1,000 square meters, Lao Mo's waiters served the diners politely.
And one of them is Wang Hao and the little fox.
"Pinch me!" the little fox unleashed his Crocs sandals and stretched his feet from under the table to the other side. The Russian style made her very novel, and she kept looking at it, looking at the splendor, and couldn't help but say, "It's not expensive, right?"
"It's not expensive!"
"Are you telling the truth?"
Wang Hao laughed a few times, lowered his head and pinched his feet, although it was out of place, but Wang Hao doted on her, and it was her birthday, so she was up.
Today, he has taken the little fox as a hobby of shopping, and walked one shopping mall after another.
Maybe she was down by an old man, and she was unwilling, and on the way to the restaurant, this girl was tossing in a different way...
Oops my feet hurt, and then my legs hurt...
How can your small breasts not hurt!
My "basketball skills, the best in the world"!
It wasn't until Wang Hao opened the storage box and offered the Nokia 3300, the birthday gift prepared in advance, that the girl settled down.
Xu is gift is very much in line with the little fox's heart, he didn't dislike it, the glutinous soft lips were sticking to his face, and he said "Thank you, I like it so much!"
The difference is too big, and the price of clothes and mobile phones is about the same.
I've never seen you like this.
... He finally understood that it was difficult to buy a good heart, this girl loved to be armed more than the red suit!
He didn't really feel tired or troubled, but enjoyed it. The two of them went shopping and talked about love, what a good thing. And he's going to start school right away, and then he's going to have to be busy for a while, so there's a lot less time to be leisurely like this.
How can you be tired!
Tired or not, don't mention it, it is said that the huge Beiqian City is now a place for the two of them to go around, Wang Hao's house is in Chaoyang, according to the direction of the northeast corner, the little fox lives in Xuanwu, in the southwest corner, the playground is in the southeast corner, and the exhibition hall is in the northwest corner.
If it weren't for the hurry, Wang Hao would have had good driving skills, and he would definitely have missed the scheduled table time.
"Hey, what are you thinking?"
The little fox suddenly stretched his feet forward and stabbed Wang Hao.
"Uh... It's nothing, why hasn't the food come yet?" Wang Hao touched the non-existent sweat, but fortunately, he reacted quickly, or he would have stabbed him between the roots of his thighs.
"Okay, this girl wants to bloom, the flowers have already been spent, and they will not be allowed in the future. The little fox didn't raise his head, fiddling with his new phone, and couldn't put it down.
Wang Hao now looks at Xiao You's assets, in fact, he has a few children in his pocket, she is very clear, and she looks not old or young, but according to the flower method some time ago, how long can she toss?
Today alone, she counted with her green jade fingers in her heart, and it cost more than 10,000 yuan.
However, thinking that it is her birthday, this product has worked hard to manage, this posture, she is super satisfied, just have a blood.
"Yo, then I'm naked, and I'll have a good meal with you. Wang Hao looked around and teased.
There are a lot of people eating in the hall, family dinners, couples, talking about things... or happy, or happy, or sweet, all have the same good mood on their faces.
There is no WIFI Internet, and there is no camera phone, which is slow and comfortable. A family banquet is a family banquet, falling in love is falling in love, and even the gathering between colleagues is so harmonious, there is no bowing family.
When two people are together, they are in..."Huh?"
Wang Hao suddenly found that this girl had a tendency to become the first generation of low-headed people, put down the little feet in her hand, cleaned her hands, knocked on the table, and said: "Hey, put down the phone, the rules in the future are not allowed to fiddle with the phone at the dinner table." ”
"Hmph, don't let people play, you buy someone such a game console-style mobile phone!" The little fox put down the phone obediently, but his mouth did not give up.
Speaking of which, this phone has just been on the market for a short time, and it is a music entertainment phone full of personality. It has a peculiar appearance, like a handheld game console, and the case can be replaced.
Functionally, it uses a 24-chord ringtone, with the ability to select MP3 songs, recorded broadcasts, or other sounds recorded through an audio cable as the ringtone for calls or text messages. You can use your imagination as you like, and even the sounds of your friends can be used as ringtones.
Moreover, the storage function is powerful, and it supports expansion, which can well accommodate various WAP and JAVA games.
64M too!!
Wang Hao's attitude towards the little fox is like a parent to his own child, urging him to study, but he is unconsciously spoiled.
At that time, I just thought that the mobile phone should be very suitable for the little fox's appetite.
The effect is very good, and I really like it! But how can I think of the old sorrow and not add the new sorrow.
"Excuse me!" Before Wang Hao could speak, the waiter brought a bottle of kvass and snowman ice cream.
When the waiter retired, Wang Hao didn't care about what she just said, and said with a smile: "Come and try it, see if you can get used to this Russian drink." ”
The little fox glanced at the slightly red liquid in the cup that was similar to beer, took a sip, and smashed it, "Well, it's okay, it's moderately sweet and sour, like..." Resemble.. That's right, like sour plum soup with bubbles!"
"Yo, you're good at drinking! This thing is made from fermented leba bread, which is a non-alcoholic sweet beer. ”
"Well, this girl is smart!" the little fox raised his head, "by the way, why didn't you order an aperitif." She asked casually, but there was a hint of inexplicable urgency on her face.
"You have to drive, and you're in the car, so you have to be safe. Wang Hao said very naturally. Drunk driving, although no one cares about it at the moment, he still maintains the habit of driving without drinking.
"Oh!~" The little fox was very moved, but there was also a little disappointment in it, and he was secretly worried about whether his X plan could be implemented smoothly.
The appetizers are also hearty one by one: beetroot soup, creamy mushroom soup, capital salad with foie gras, roasted sea bass with Moscow cream, leba basket, canned stewed beef, pickled cucumber.
First up are the beetroot soup and the creamy mushroom soup, both of which are the signature dishes here.
The beetroot soup is oily and shiny, thick but not greasy, with a moderate amount of sweet and sour, with a moderate amount of vegetables and a small amount of beef slices, while the mushroom soup is smooth and delicious with the crushed mushrooms and thick cream.
The two of them tasted it separately, but the little fox still preferred the sweet and sour red soup, saying that it was very appetizing.
The beef stewed in a can with rice is a small jar with soup and a pure taste, and the beef is rotten.
Moscow Grilled Sea Bass with Milk Sauce: Fillet sea bass and mushrooms are baked with cheese for a creamy taste.
...
It's not the first time that the two of them have eaten Western food, and the little fox adapts quickly, and the original crampedness is yesterday's yellow flower, and he laughs freely.
Wang Hao stared through the glass, the little fox was like a budding rose, and a bright smile bloomed on his crystal cheeks.
He's a little drunk!
"Mi Mi, do you know, meeting you is the greatest luck in my life. Wang Hao gently shook the red kvass, not wine is better than wine.
"You're poor. The little fox pouted at Wang Hao, it was rare for Wang Hao to say a meaty word for so long, she felt goosebumps all over her body, and in an instant, she was more beautiful.
Wang Hao smiled back at the little fox, "Wait, I'll send you a song." Wang Hao stood up, walked to the piano on the side of the restaurant, sat slowly, and stroked the black and white keys in front of him, as if he was in a different world...
The living environment and mentality of his previous life created Wang Hao's miscellaneous studies, which also caused him to be loose in everything, like a black bear breaking buds.
The piano teacher said to Wang Hao after the course and before leaving, you have no shortage of talent, but the piano is the king, and your state of mind is too casual and difficult to master.
He has learned a lot, most of them, if you pick the big one among the short, the guitar is good, after all, this thing is a sharp weapon for the gunner, and it can take a lot of advantage and take the lead.
However, if you say a thousand things and ten thousand, you have to look at your face first, and you look like a flower who can't soak in anything!
Having said that, although he is not good at the piano, he still has no problem playing a few tunes.
After trying a few notes, Wang Hao put his hands on the keys and said into the microphone, "I'm sorry for taking up everyone's time." ”
The whole restaurant suddenly fell silent, and the diners nearby had already watched a handsome guy go up, all curious about what he was going to do.
"A song for the ladies here, and the most beautiful princess in my heart, Da Mi Mi!" Wang Haoyi stretched out his hand to indicate the direction of the little fox.
I saw that the little fox's face was red, and the watery eyes were about to overflow, Xu felt the gaze around him, and instantly like a quail, clamping his legs, his head drooping slightly, and he was as delicate as a flower.
Originally, the meaning of this gesture was that if the lady was willing, she should get up and signal now, but the little fox obviously didn't understand, of course, even if she understood, it was estimated that the girl was embarrassed at the moment.
The applause suddenly rang out, especially a few foreigners, who snapped very warmly. In the Great Celestial Empire, a country that advocates moderation, it is rare to see such a generous and gentlemanly man, well, boy.
The beautiful melody sounded, Wang Hao stared at the little fox, and gently sang the song that he had always wanted to sing to the little fox:
Without the slightest precaution, without a trace of concern, you just appeared, in my world.
I was pleasantly surprised, and I couldn't help myself.
But you are like this, and before I know it, you have quietly disappeared
There is no news from my world, all that remains is memories!
..
A look, a heartbeat, an unexpected happiness, as if it was a dream fate
