Chapter 172: Old John
After eating the hot pot for an hour and a half, Flor, who couldn't sit still and couldn't eat it anymore, proposed to leave
I laughed at the same time as Chengyi, because until now, Flower hadn't eaten even a quarter of it.
"Laugh at the fart."
Flower glanced at me and Chengyi angrily, snapped his fingers and called the waiter over.
The waiter walked up to the table, "Is there anything I can do to help your sir?" β
Flor pointed to the uneaten food on the table and in the dining car, and made a request that made the waiter look confused and black-faced - he asked the waiter to pack all the uneaten so-called seasonal vegetables, which were actually mostly potato chips.
When I finished packing and walked to the front desk to check out, the restaurant owner took the money in one hand and looked at Flauer who was holding a bag of vegetables, and complained helplessly to me and Chengyi in Chinese: "Don't eat spicy don't order spicy pot, is this old man here to buy vegetables?" β
Chengyi and I glanced at each other, and I could see an uncontrollable smile on the girl's face. The boss probably thought that Flor, like most British people, could not understand Chinese, so he complained so brazenly.
Turning his head to look at Flower, the old man's face turned dark, but then he returned to normal. He stepped forward and walked up to me with a smile and asked me and Chengyi in English, "What is he talking about?" β
The boss is a clever man, and before I could talk to Chengyi, he smiled and said, "It's nothing." We're saying you look refreshed and healthy. β
Flower glanced at the boss lightly, oh and said lightly in Chinese: "Oh yes?" Thank you, I think it's a blessing that I have bought so many good vegetables. β
With that, Flower turned around and walked out of the restaurant, leaving the boss behind the cabinet with a confused expression.
Cheng Yi and I laughed and followed Flower out of the hot pot restaurant, and the moment he stepped out of the door, Flower raised his head and looked at the sky and said slowly with a melancholy face: "I think I understand the most important thing in my next life." β
I laughed and teased, "What's the matter?" Is it okay to take it easy in the future? β
Flower shook his head, "No. For the next week or more, I just can't. Otherwise, damn it, I bet that Lao Tzu's chrysanthemum will definitely sing with me for half a month, God witness, I will absolutely absolutely never come to this store again in the future! β
Cheng Yi and I suddenly laughed even more happily.
Flower looked at me and Chengyi with a look of indignation, "You guys can still laugh?" What about your compassion? Eaten by a dog? Especially since you become one! I always thought you were a good girl, but what happened? You're blacker than Richard! You won't be able to get married like this! β
Cheng Yi wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, and finally stopped laughing, "Okay, I admit that it was my fault for letting you eat an unpleasant dinner, and I am willing to make amends." β
Flower snorted, "For the sake of your sincerity, I will accept your apology, let's go, and find a place to have supper." β
Cheng Yi and I immediately looked at Flower with the eyes of a certain creature.
Flower went crazy all of a sudden, "Don't look at me like that, look at this big bag of vegetables!" These should have been in my stomach, but now they are in my hands! What do you think is the difference between me and never having dinner! β
I sighed helplessly, "Okay, what to eat?" β
Flower smiled mysteriously, "Just come with me, and I swear you'll never forget the next meal." β
As he spoke, Flower walked deeper into Chinatown with a large bag of vegetables.
Chinatown came to an end, and a few more streets were crossed, and Flower led me and Chengyi into an alley. After walking down the alley for more than ten minutes, Flower stopped in front of a shop that was so remote that he couldn't be more remote, smiled at me and Chengyi, "Okay, here we are." β
I glanced up at the signboard and immediately felt a pain in my eyes, "Old John... Skewer it. β
I can still accept you to name an old man skewers, I can also accept you to name old John barbecue bar, old John skewers, this ** to the Chinese people and the British people feel that the awkward name is for the combination of Chinese and Western?
I spat out the name of the egg, and suddenly became suspicious of the next meal in Flower's mouth, I swear you will never forget. Damn, this old man isn't going to take revenge on me and Chengyi, is he?
Turning my head to look at Cheng Yi, I could see a trace of uneasiness in this girl's eyes, this girl probably thought of being with me.
Flower walked to the door and pushed open the door, walked into Old John's bar with a smile and said loudly: "John! β
The dΓ©cor of Old John's Bun Bar is simple, and although it looks small, there is only one storefront. However, the store is very deep, with two long wooden tables with a total of four on one side against the walls on both sides, and the kitchen in the deepest part.
A hearty laugh came from the kitchen, "Flower? How did you come here? Or at this time. β
The next moment the kitchen door opened, and a one-meter-nine man who looked to be wearing a chef's hat and a white apron walked out of the kitchen. The big man looked about the same age as Flower, and his beard was almost completely white. This also made him a little less fierce and a little more kind.
The moment I saw John, I immediately remembered a picture of a great man hanging in the corridor of high school - Engels, the good engine oil of Marx. If this guy is a little younger and has a more lush beard, then he will be the reincarnation of Engels!
Flower lifted the bag of vegetables in his hand and said with a smile: "Don't mention it, I went to Chinatown." As a result, I didn't have enough for dinner, so I came to you. Look, I brought fresh ingredients. β
I rolled my eyes suddenly, I really underestimated this old man's shameless Cheng dΓΉ, the hot pot restaurant packed it was just a fresh ingredient that he said was specially brought, and this nonsense ability is also unique in heaven and earth.
Flower handed the vegetables to Engels, oh no, John handed them in his hand and turned around and introduced me and Chengyi with a smile: "This is John, my old friend." He's an exceptional chef, and I'm sure he's better than any chef you've ever met! β
John smiled and said, "It's just an old cook." You're friends with Flor, you're friends with me, so stay and have a bite to eat if you don't mind. β
With that, John walked into the kitchen with the vegetables. After a moment, John poked his head out again, "Flower, if you're hungry, there's a cake in the fridge that my son just brought tonight." β
Flower's eyes lit up suddenly, and the body that had just sat down suddenly stood up again, "Little John?" I haven't seen him in a long time. β
John smiled and shook his head, "No, it's Big John." β
