Chapter 40: Happy New Year
Jing Xi stood at the door and pondered Mei Shuying's thoughts, Liya didn't notice that she was distracted, and was still happy that Jing Xi pushed Mei Shuying back, took Jing Xi's hand, and followed everyone's butts into the gate. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Liya was very dissatisfied with Mei Shuying's indiscriminate accusations, although Jing Xi didn't see it, but Liya kept looking ahead, she also found the door that hit her, but it was not as fast as Jing Xi's reaction, if Jing Xi hadn't pulled her, she would have fallen today, and it was about to be time for the performance, at this juncture, if she was injured, the performance would definitely be affected.
Jing Xi's regret is in her eyes, she wants to dance with Jing Xi's share, and there must be no accidents.
Mei Shuying walked by herself and didn't look at the road, and she was hit and messed with people, Liya said that she looked down on this person.
Quanjude is very popular, there are almost no empty seats, it seems that on the first day of the Lunar New Year, many people are like Wang's father, choose to entertain guests in the hotel.
Dad Wang booked a total of three tables, one table for the children, one table for the men, and one table for the women.
The men's table, drinking liquor, is very lively.
The woman and the children drank sweet juice drinks and soft drinks.
In the 80s, with the impact of reform and opening up, people's living standards have been greatly improved, but the drinks are still not as diverse as they are now, and the taste is not very good.
Fruit juice drinks are the same as Asian sodas, in transparent glass bottles, and the color of the juice is mixed with pigments at first glance, which is bright and abnormal.
Jing Xi only needs a bottle of soda, he doesn't even look at the juice, holds the lotus leaf cake in his hand, picks a little sweet noodle sauce with chopsticks, spreads it on the lotus leaf cake, clips a few slices of roast duck and covers it, puts a few green onion strips, cucumber strips or radish strips, rolls up the lotus leaf cake, the small mouth is wide open, and the one eaten is fragrant.
"It's not going to work. It's not a good thing, it's ugly to eat like this. ”
Jing Xi's hand paused, and continued to eat herself, facing the food, Jing Xi's mood was very good, and occasionally a clown with no eyes popped up, which didn't affect her appetite for enjoying food at all.
Jing Xi's ignorance did not stop those people, but became more and more inch-in, more and more sour words, and more people agreed, and in the end, there were only Jing Xi and Liya at the table, and another girl was still eating, and everyone else stopped their chopsticks and pointed at Jing Xi's eating.
In her previous life, when Jing Xi was still young, there were often people whispering behind her back, saying bad things about her, and someone asked Jing Xi, aren't you angry?
Jing Xi will ask rhetorically, "If you talk on the road, will you take care of the interjection of the squatting manure pit man?" ”
Although these words have a strong local flavor, they are the most detrimental.
The girls talked to themselves for a long time, but they didn't even get a roll of their eyes as a topic character, and they felt bored, and slowly fewer and fewer people talked, and more and more people ate.
However, they eat very Sven, basically do not move the roast duck, only eat duck blood vermicelli soup, fire duck heart, red yeast duck liver and other light taste, even if they eat roast duck, they will never touch the shredded green onions, they are worried that if they eat in their mouths, there will be a bad taste.
Jing Xi is very happy to sandwich shredded green onions, she originally likes to eat green onions, plus the shredded green onions here are Shandong green onions, which are tender and tender with a hint of sweetness, completely removing the greasy and fishy smell of roast duck.
"Jing Xi, Happy New Year!" Jing Xi was immersed in hard work, and a hand was on her shoulder.
Jing Xi's mouth was stuffed to the brim, and he tilted his head, it turned out to be Benjamin, "Hum New Year!" ”
"Happy New Year!" Leah happily greeted Benjamin.
Benjamin smiled slightly, "Happy New Year." ”
He looked down and saw Jing Xi's bulging cheeks, the corners of his mouth were still stained with sweet noodle sauce, and he replied vaguely, and couldn't help but smile at the corners of his mouth.
He took out his handkerchief and gently wiped the sweet noodle sauce from the corner of Jing Xi's mouth.
As the blue plaid handkerchief with a faint scent of lemongrass left the corner of Jing Xi's mouth, she saw a striking coffee-colored stain on the handkerchief.
Jing Xi, who has been laughed at by everyone for a long time, has not changed a trace of color on his face, which is a feeling of shyness.
People were eating well, why did they suddenly run out of such a person, and make such a Qiong Yao-style move, Jing Xi looked at Benjamin, and secretly complained about him in his heart.
Forgive Jing Xi for being old, and she has never been cared for as a little girl.
Benjamin didn't know about his kindness, but he didn't get to be liked at all.
Jing Xi swallowed what was in his mouth and asked curiously, "Benjamin, are you also here to eat?" ”
She looked around, there were too many people in the dining room, there were black heads everywhere, and Jing Xi couldn't see anyone she knew.
"I'm here with Grandpa Yang and the others, in the box over there." Benjamin gestured to the right behind him.
Jing Xi nodded, "Have you gone to see Benoit?" Is he clamoring that the hospital is too deserted and wants to go home! ”
Benjamin remembered Benoit lying in the hospital, complaining like a resentful woman, how bored he was with no one in the hospital to talk to him.
Benjamin's brown eyes were dyed with a little smile, "You guessed right, Benoit heard that he was going to eat roast duck today, and he was so anxious in the hospital that he screamed, but unfortunately, the doctor did not agree to let him go home for the New Year." ”
Jing Xi's mind automatically appeared in Benoit with bandages wrapped around his legs, waving his arms, like a fried cat, a pitiful look that wanted to move but couldn't move, and laughed unkindly, should! Who made Benoit so capable?
Benjamin obviously understood why Jing Xi was smiling so happily, and then laughed softly.
Liya, who also knew what had happened, also covered her mouth and laughed loudly.
"Excuse me! Are you a friend of Leah? He Yan, who was sitting opposite Jing Xi, didn't know when she rubbed over, with a red shyness on her face, and spoke to Benjamin quietly and politely.
Jing Xi and Liya were a little surprised, they glanced at each other, and there were question marks in their eyes, which play did she play?
Chinese New Year, adults and children will change into new clothes, Benjamin is obviously following the customs, wearing a set of royal blue tartan suit, white shirt tied with a bow tie of the same color, fitting calf trousers, so that Benjamin's long legs appear more slender, the little boy has begun to show the demeanor of a British gentleman.
Seeing the peach blossoms flashing in He Yan's eyes, Jing Xi understood, it turned out that he had taken a fancy to Benjamin.
