Volume 12 Longest Day 11:00~11:32
An hour is too long, so let's start with this section.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Well, it seems interesting for everyone to gather around the table and the cook to cook in the middle," the two of them walked for a while, and when they came to the Taigoro teppanyaki, Harman looked inward, and then hesitated, "It always feels too noisy, I think... β
"You can sit with two people ... That? Guo Zhouyi asked tentatively.
"Well, the two of them are sitting together, quieter, ah," Harman nodded, and then let out a smile [Ah], one hand pointed to another storefront not far away, and the other hand shook Guo Zhouyi, who was looking around, "That, that store name looks interesting." β
"BP.......... ah, indeed, the name of the oil company in the old days, is it opened by the descendants of the company, go and see." Guo Zhouyi saw the storefront that Harman was referring to, nodded and then pulled Harman towards there.
"It's all said, don't drag me away... Haman muttered under his breath.
"Then you go ahead?" Guo Zhouyi smiled and slowed down, and after turning sideways past a running little boy, he winked at Haman.
"No, just walk side by side," Harman waved at the little boy who had stopped in surprise to look at the two of them, "I don't know why, I always feel that the two of them walking one after the other make me feel a little awkward... β
"Okay, I remember, I'll control the speed of walking in the future."
Guo Zhouyi slowed down, the two walked side by side, and then after the shoulders and arms touched lightly a few times, the two turned their heads sideways and smiled at each other at the same time. The two quickly walked to the door of the restaurant with a green wooden sign of BP, Guo Zhouyi looked up, and at the top of a few steps, a woman wearing dark blue trousers and a long-sleeved top in black and white was holding a watering can, tiptoe to water the flowers on the window by the door; Looking through the window, you can see a man and a woman sitting facing each other.
"Seems like a good place here?" Guo Zhouyi asked as he walked up.
"You're already on your way, but you look good." Haman replied, and the two walked up the stairs just long enough for the two of them to walk side by side to the door, only to find that the woman watering the flowers had blocked the door.
"Uh, please..." Guo Zhouyi opened his mouth and tried to get the woman to move away.
"Humph!" The woman blocking the door suddenly let out a snort that seemed to be filled with anger, completely drowning out Guo Zhouyi's words, and then she began to bang the door again.
"You don't need me to get you a sprinkler system, you don't want to be too short to be strong," a man shouted from the restaurant, "Come in, look at me." β
"Your sprinkler just was...
Burst...... The sprinkler head above the pot emits a mist of water.
βγγγ Hit by my watering can and now the angle is not right, oh my god!! The woman with the watering can muttered a complaint, and then heard what seemed to be an "hmm" sound from someone behind her, and when she looked back, she saw two people standing behind her, and both of them were sprayed with their heads and faces.
"Ah!! I'm really sorry, that pig really doesn't do anything but eat, is it going to eat, come in quickly, I'll find something for you to wipe it, and I'm so sorry to give you free dessert after dinner today! The woman, who seemed to be the manager's wife, hurriedly pushed the door open, and then made a gesture of invitation inside the door.
Guo Zhouyi and Harman smiled at the same time, and then walked into the seemingly small store one after the other.
"Pig, get out and apologize to people!!" As far as Guo Zhouyi is concerned, the woman who can basically be the proprietress now puts the watering can on the cash register quite hard and shouts at the kitchen.
"Apologize, apologize, you're okay." The male voice I heard just now came from the kitchen.
Taking advantage of the short time when the people behind the kitchen came out, Guo Zhouyi quickly took a look at the store and found that this was indeed a small restaurant, with only 5 groups of seats in total, and only 20 people could sit at most, most of them were like couple seats, which made him feel that he was wrong.
"Ah, yes, it seems that it is indeed ours, although the main problem is some idiot who only pays attention to watering the flowers." The man in the cook's suit pouted at his wife, causing a burst of angry glare, and felt the two hands near his ears from behind.
"The boss and the hostess are like that again... They should pay me," After the cook/owner of the restaurant was dragged into the kitchen, the man who Guo Zhouyi saw sitting by the window and also waiting for a meal shook his head and stood up, and walked next to Guo Zhouyi, "Find a place to sit yourself, and then there is a menu on the table, if they haven't come out after thinking about what to eat, they can fill in the list by themselves and hang it up... Hmm, that's about it? β
"Uh... This is really... Guo Zhouyi felt a little unsure of what to say.
"An enviable couple, you too, thank you," Haman pulled Guo Zhouyi for a moment, and then dragged Guo Zhouyi to a table inside, "We're here, thank you again." β
"You're welcome, you don't come to BP often at first glance, so it's nothing to help." The man smiled a little coy at Haman and walked back to his seat.
As soon as the two of them sat down on either side of the tan table, the watering can girl rushed out of the kitchen, only this time the contents in their hands were replaced by a small hair dryer.
"I'm really sorry just now, do you want to blow your hair and clothes, eat something today, dessert is free, so men's --- dinner can order expensive ones." The female boss of the watering can looked super friendly with a smile on her face, standing next to Guo Zhouyi and Haman's seat and whispering.
"It doesn't matter if you have hair and clothes, it's just a little mist, you haven't asked for advice, what is your name..." You can't always call you the proprietress of the watering can in your heart, Guo Zhouyi asked politely as much as possible while helpless in his heart.
"Li, Zhang Li, my husband's name is Benson, Benson. Zhang, but most of the people in the neighborhood call me a bee and call him a pig. β
"Ahh That's why it's called BP? Haman was suddenly enlightened.
"That's right! It's a small restaurant for the two of us, he's in charge of the main meal, and I'm in charge of the sweets, ah, would you like to try today's recommendations? The proprietress named Zhang Li nodded happily, and then pointed to her head.
"Ah, the two of you are so happy, recommended dishes, recommended dishes, uh, where are the recommended dishes..." Guo Zhouyi looked at the thin menu and didn't find the page of the chef's recommended dishes, so he raised his head again and looked at the proprietress suspiciously.
"She just pointed to her head, you idiot... Harman blushed a little and flicked his fingers on the back of Guo Zhouyi's hand.
"Ah, I know," in order to cover up his mistake, Guo Zhouyi suddenly realized, "That's it, the menu for the new season is ready, and it hasn't been printed yet... β
"We're not a formal hotel, we don't have any seasonal menus, but our recommended menus change frequently, so we're lazy to print."
In other words, the two people who are so casual, Guo Zhouyi and Harman looked at each other and smiled:
"Let's talk about it."
"Ah, first of all, since today is the relationship between China Strengthening Week, it's all Chinese food...
Chinese Enhancement Week,What do you want to strengthen?γγγ
"Of course, it is to strengthen the memory of the distant hometown, and eating is also culture, so it should be strengthened from time to time, not to mention that my husband and I both have Chinese blood," the proprietress Zhang Li read the question from Guo Zhouyi's suspicious face and answered, then cleared her throat and began to report the name of the dish, "First of all, there is no appetizer, but there are cold dishes, uh, so it seems that this does not need to be reported on the menu... For the main course, uh, by the way, it should be called a hot dish, and the chef recommends the fish fillet in oil, three fresh small potatoes, Bafu fragrant duck, stir-fried pork with bitter melon, spicy fried squid, Dongpo meat, lamb sticks, vinegared cabbage and oil-consuming cabbage. β
"The Bafu fragrant duck sounds very interesting." Haman spoke first.
"Uh, then Bafu Xiang Duck, I think the oily fish fillet sounds quite interesting, do you really use oil to pour it?" Guo Zhouyi looked up at the proprietress .
"It's drenching, just like you just now, ah, really want to get angry on the fish?"
"Ah, I don't mean that at all... Fish fillet in oil, thank you... β
"Okay, don't eat with the intention of venting your anger, then a green vegetable is almost enough."
"I've eaten cabbage and cabbage, but I haven't eaten bitter gourd, so it's better to just..." There was a little excitement on Haman's face.
"Wait, I vaguely feel that bitter melon seems a little inappropriateγγγγγ Ah, by the way, bitter gourd seems to be cool, you don't seem to be okay today... Guo Zhouyi remembered something vaguely about bitter gourd, then shook his head and motioned to Haman not to order this.
"Cold food, what do you mean, that is, you will feel cold when you eat it?" Haman was a little baffled.
"Well, I can't remember... Guo Zhouyi thought about it, but couldn't think of more information, as if his memory had been diluted by something.
"Ah, you are a guest... The proprietress pointed to her lower abdomen, and nodded herself after getting Harman's nod of affirmation, "It doesn't seem good to eat bitter gourd, in this way, it seems that there is tofu, how about stewing cabbage and tofu, and some hot soup to drink?" β
"Then let's do it, we don't want cold dishes, as for desserts, I'll ask the proprietress to choose one." Harman and on the menu handed to the hostess.
"Well, I'll arrange it later." The proprietress Zhang Li nodded and left with the menu.
"What about a happy couple." X2, Harman and Guo Zhouyi sighed softly at the same time, and then Guo Zhouyi grabbed Haman's hand.
"Speaking of which, why do you think that Bafu Xiang Duck is very interesting...
βγγγ Well, it's a subtle hunch. β
