Chapter 142: Idleness

Lu Xiancheng, who was sitting in his room, was enjoying breakfast while flipping through the newspaper, looking at the photo of himself and the stable staff of the first mate above, eating the fried egg on his plate. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

Today, Lu Xiancheng decided to move freely today, because he didn't have his own horse to participate in the race today, and when he went to the arena to watch other people's horse races, Lao Lu was not very interested now, even if he wanted to buy a horse, he wouldn't be at this time.

Originally, Lao Lu thought that he could go shopping with Zhu Zihua, but when he turned his head and thought about it, he saw him and the two British girls last night with the slimy and depraved energy, and he must have not gotten up yet, so Lao Lu decided to go out alone today at will, don't stay here, go farther.

After eating, Lao Lu called the waiter to collect the tableware, changed into a set of ordinary clothes, that is, a sportswear and left the hotel, and walked around so casually without calling a car.

Now if this scene is changed to China, Lu Xiancheng will not dare to wander around outside, because as long as there is a newsstand, almost all of them have their own big faces on the first page of the newspaper, and it will be a bit worthless if someone catches them for money at any time. Fortunately, it's in England now, and the British are a little faceblind to Asian faces, and they think that Asians all have the same face, let alone walk by in such a hurry.

Although he had just eaten breakfast, Lao Lu saw people selling burritos at a roadside stall, but he didn't expect that there were still people selling this thing here, and the fragrance was a little too tempting.

The casual feeling here makes Lu Xiancheng feel very comfortable and free, not like he is in Gushan, as long as he goes out for a walk, there will be a group of people around him for a while, either asking himself how to pick a horse or asking himself which horse he is optimistic about in the next competition, which makes Lao Lu annoyed. It's like walking around and munching on a hot dog leisurely.

After nibbling on the burritos, Lu Xiancheng suddenly decided to go to Windsor Castle to have a look, Lao Lu knew that although the queen is here, part of the castle has become the queen's palace, but other places can still be seen.

Lu Xiancheng, who was casual, did not take a taxi directly, but reached out to stop the car on the side of the road, wanting to take a ride, not that Lao Lu was reluctant to spend the money for a taxi, but Lao Lu felt that this was in line with his leisurely temperament today, and no one stopped even stopping the car, and now everyone is here to see the Jockey Club, who has nothing to do to leave the Jockey Club, spent more than half an hour on the side of the road, and finally a British old man with an old car in the seventies and eighties saw Lao Lu, and then took Lao Lu on.

This kind of classic car is very common abroad, and whether it is the British or the American seems to see it as a kind of culture, just like an old car with a story in the United States is more attractive than a new car, and I don't know why they don't force scrapping. And China does not seem to see cars as part of its own development history, and they will be scrapped at the end of their lives.

But here Lao Lu has to say, the classic car looks good, but it is not as comfortable as many cars now, especially Lao Lu's 'ass' usually tastes the luxury car is also a bull fork, and it is a little uncomfortable to sit in the back seat of this kind of hard tie cold, and what makes Lao Lu a little awkward is that there is a shepherd dog sitting with him. And this dog is very big, and as soon as Lao Lu got into the car, he looked at Lu Xiancheng with two eyes, and tilted his head while looking at it. made Lu Xiancheng's heart feel a little hairy.

It's a little weird to want to smile at the dog, and if you want to yell at the dog twice, the owner of the family is kind enough to carry himself, and he wants to reach out and hit Liwei twice, but he is afraid that this hand will be bitten if he stretches out.

"Don't worry, Charlotte doesn't attack people, she's friendly!" The old man saw Lu Xiancheng sitting in the back seat with a guarded look, and couldn't help but look back and say with a smile.

"I can see it" Lu Xiancheng nodded at the old man, and after a few nonsense sentences, he began to thank the two old British couples: "Thank you for giving me a ride."

Lao Lu thought to himself: If this dog really bites, it is estimated that there is nothing good about his body now, you must know that this dog is not small, and Erha is about the same age, of course, this dog is definitely not as good-looking as Erha in Lao Lu's heart, and the black and white hair on his body is like a cow.

"You're lucky, we're also going to Windsor Castle, it's part of our trip this year, and now no one goes out to see the horse races, and it's not easy for someone else to drive you," the old man said.

As soon as he mentioned the castle, the old man seemed to open the conversation, and began to tell Lao Lu about his travel plan with his wife this year, the two old men were ready to take a walk around the UK, and then go to Portugal, ready to start from Portugal, and drive through Europe like this, in the old man's plan there are Spain, France, Switzerland, Germany, Hungary, etc., anyway, the essence of Europe, these two silver-haired old men are ready to see it.

This kind of attitude to life makes Lu Xiancheng appreciate it very much, this is not a question of whether there is money or not, but an attitude towards life, it stands to reason that Lu Xiancheng's parents can also wander all over the world, the two of them are richer than this old British couple, but Lu Dad and Lu Ma do not have this heart of these two British old couples, and they have left for more than ten or twenty days, and they began to worry about the little things at home, either the chicken is not fed or the dog may think about himself again, Anyway, in the hearts of the elderly in China, home and hometown are always places that are difficult to let go, let alone leaving their hometowns, and they start to feel homesick after a long time.

This may be a difference in culture, Lao Lu thinks that in terms of playing, foreign old men know life better than our domestic old men, not to mention more young people.

Lu Xiancheng and the old man were talking wrongly, and the old lady was a little speechless, but the expression on her face was very kind, and she looked at the two with a smile.

Sitting in the classic car with the couple, chatting from side to side, looking out of the window from time to time and slowly retreating backwards, Lao Lu had the illusion of feeling that time had slowed down all of a sudden.

After chatting for a while, the topic turned to the right away, and of course this was inevitable.

"Your Chinese horses are doing well, especially yesterday's Flame Empress, it's amazing, it's rare to see such a dominant horse in the arena now, seeing him can't help but remind me......" The old man still didn't recognize that the one sitting in the back seat of him was the owner of the Flame Empress.

What's even funnier is that there is a newspaper under the windshield in front of the two cars, and Lao Lu can see a large photo of himself and the Empress of Flame as soon as he looks up, of course, he is a gentleman's outfit in the photo, and now he is a sportswear, not to mention going to see the Jockey Club, not even a tourist is not like a tourist, most like a long-distance running exercise in the morning.

"You also have horses?" Lu Xiancheng listened to the old man and began to analyze the pace of the Flame Empress and a series of other performances, and said a lot of things in great detail, even Lu Xiancheng didn't think of them, so he opened his mouth and asked.

"When I was younger, I used to raise racehorses, but now I don't have that energy, and now our small ranch is generally only for tourists, spring and winter a year, and other than that, the ranch is just the two of us," the old man said ......with a smile about his life.

It's free-spirited! When the two old men had no money, they saved money at home, and when they finished saving, they went to the whole country or even the world to spend all the money, and then came back to save money, and so on.

"What about you?" At this time, the old man remembered to ask what the Chinese young man sitting in the back of his car was doing.

"I also have a ranch, I can be regarded as a rancher, but the ranch is mainly managed by hiring others, and I do some other business myself......" Lu Xiancheng didn't know how to introduce himself, so he had to say a few words casually.

After listening to this, the old man nodded approvingly: "Now it is getting more and more difficult to live on the pasture, and the behavior in Europe has not been very good in the past two years, and some time ago there was a news ...... about horse meat being sold as beef."

The old man thought in his heart that Lu Xiancheng's ranch was not big, and of course, the old man didn't expect that the person sitting in the back seat of his car was worth almost hundreds of times more than himself.

As for the country's economy, the old man complained a few words and began to talk about the government's incompetence and the prime minister's waste, which made Lao Luton feel a little bit of a taxi in China.

Berkshire and Windsor Castle are not far away, the old man and Lu Xiancheng just arrived at the place, and then naturally Lu Xiancheng and these two old people formed a strange combination, and visited Windsor Castle together, and it happened that the two British elders also acted as temporary commentators, telling Lu Xiancheng the historical story of knowing the artwork.

People in every country are always proud of their history, including Americans who have little history, and can spray foam stars in your face when talking about the South American war. The old man in England can be regarded as well-informed, and he popularized British history for what Lao Lu had or not.

At noon, Lu Xiancheng and the two old men had dinner, according to Chinese habits, Lu Dafu rarely rushed to pay, but the old man still returned his penny to Lu Xiancheng very seriously, that is, two-thirds of the entire cost, at this time Lu Xiancheng seemed to understand a little bit why people are always called the Englishman John Bull, this character is indeed a bit of a bull temper.

was originally going to continue to play with the two of them in the afternoon, but unfortunately a phone call brought Lao Lu back to reality from today's spiritual journey, Du Guohao said that while everyone was here, he simply decided to have a meeting in the afternoon, which made Lao Lu complain.

I have to say that today's little day Lao Lu is very leisurely, slowly getting used to the beat of the two old people, which may be a little boring for some young people, but it is a rare enjoyment for Lu Xiancheng, the whole person's life seems to have slowed down all of a sudden, and the mood is indescribably elegant and peaceful.

It's like stealing half a day's leisure from normal life!

But this kind of time was immediately broken by Du Guohao's phone call, which was all in Europe, but he still had to discuss domestic affairs, which made it impossible for everyone to have a good time! (To be continued.) )
