Growth Volume Chapter 52: Little Love Tavern
Aojie nodded in response, and then, a few people set off, after they went to the street, they asked an old man who bought vegetables at the roadside stall where the tavern was, the old man put down the food, enthusiastically pointed to a road to the east, and said: Follow this road, walk a mile almost you can see, you just go, don't worry about getting lost, the tavern is very bright, the blind can see it.
After thanking the old man, the four of them walked into the busy street, slowly moving through the crowd, about two quarters of an hour later, they could clearly see that sixty zhang in front of them, there was a mahogany high-rise building, the body of the high-rise building, decorated with colorful neon lights, people in the distance, can be attracted by the beautiful scenery, this may be the business acumen of the tavern owner.
Speaking of the layout of the tavern, it seems to be the old style, the style of twenty or thirty years ago, those good-looking lights, but novel, should be installed this year, in front of the tavern, paved with ancient bluestone slabs, on both sides of the slate, two big red pillars support the black eaves, on the eaves, hang four red lanterns with the word Xi, the lower end of the red lantern, is a big signboard, the signboard is a golden pattern border, the background color is red, is written in gold on the four big characters: "Little love tavern." ”
In addition, at the top right of the signboard, there is a black ink that seems to have been written there, but the ink has faded due to age.
It didn't take long for the figures of the four to appear in front of the tavern, and they stood for a while, and there was an endless stream of people coming in and out of the tavern, and the business here was absolutely hot.
They squeezed into the shop, and they were free to move around, and it was spacious and comfortable, but a few customers sitting at the far end laughed and made people feel very uncomfortable.
The four of them looked around, and found that at the counter not far in front of them, there was a middle-aged uncle with a thin and a little mustache, he should be the owner of this hotel, he was at this time, holding his cheek in one hand and looking at the ceiling, and holding a string of four hundred copper bunkers in the other hand, and playing with his fingertips.
However, there is one thing that makes people suspicious, the tavern is doing well, but he is not very happy, and he doesn't know why.
The heroes said to everyone behind them: "We are here this time, just to drink, don't drink too much, don't provoke people everywhere, and in the middle of the night, we must be energetic." ”
"Good. ”
The other three nodded in agreement, and then they walked towards the counter together.
When they arrived at the counter, they sat on a bench and sat in a row, occupying the front of the counter.
The shopkeeper looked at him a few times, and then replied as if to drive them away, "You little doll, do you drink?"
"There's something you can't drink here, I think drinking is like drinking water. ”
"Oh, is it?" the boss was interested in hearing his little doll say how much he had drunk, so he went to get a small bowl, poured half a cup and handed it to Aojie, who accepted it and poured it directly into his mouth, and the wine quickly fell into his intestines.
The shopkeeper saw that he was really not drunk after drinking, and after smiling slightly, he hurriedly put away the cup and said: "Okay, I believe you, but little baby, you should not drink indiscriminately, wine is intestinal poison, this is not an exaggeration, some people and things have been filthy by this thing." ”
"Filth, you sell alcohol in the store, why do you think so?"
"Alas, it's hard to put into words. The shopkeeper sighed heavily, "I really regret opening this tavern now, what a hell tavern, it's full of dirt!"
After speaking, he glanced at the corner of the store, this brief demeanor was captured by Aojie, he looked in the direction he had just looked at the ground, and what he saw was - entangled men and women, they toasted, in order to get drunk with each other, they embraced, in order to release their wild side, speaking of which, on the surface, everyone is a gentleman, but inside, everyone is a well-dressed beast.
When Aojie saw this, his face was impermanent, and he turned his head to the boss and said, "So what's the matter? I don't think there's any problem, it's not normal for men and women to have sex in your world." ”
The boss leaned closer and whispered back to him: "Those men and women are not a couple, they are- they are cheating." ”
Tomoko reacted the most when he said this, and after being surprised, he said, "Ahh
The next thing Tomoko said was hard to say, he didn't like this kind of thing.
The boss said: "Not only that, all the women who come here are ladies at the beginning, once they touch the wine, they drink more often than anyone else, and they also engage in ambiguous actions from time to time, I don't know if it is intentional or not." ”
If you say this, it will be very tasteful, and you don't have to think about whether the words are correct or not, and you don't have to think about the purpose of drinking, just say the word "lady", which is particularly meaningful, and maybe for them, as long as they pretend to be reserved, they can neither lose their manners nor lose their excitement.
Aojie responded to the boss: "Oh, I still don't think there's anything, after all, I'm not interested in women, besides, that kind of thing is their own choice, what does it have to do with wine!"
After sighing heavily, he said, "Okay, you're right, but this is not the place where you should come, the glass of wine just now is what I invited, now you should leave." ”
"We're not leaving, and we're going to stay here until the night. ”
"At night!" the shopkeeper took a breath of cool air and glared in shock, "You, how dare you stay until night, you don't know that this store is prone to death at night!"
"Yes. ”
"I know—"
Before he could finish speaking, Aojie interrupted him: "We are here for this, but it is still daytime, so we can take some time to do things." ”
"Oh, are you an official at a young age?" said the shopkeeper, admiring the four of them.
Aojie is very flexible, as soon as the store said this, he responded in time and agreed smoothly.
"Oh, I really can't see it, so is there anything I can do to help you?"
"No, just make small talk and wait until it gets dark. ”
"Good, good!" replied the shopkeeper.
Aojie looked at Huang Tian, was not in a hurry, and began to chat: "Store, you don't want to open a hotel now?"
"Well, yes. ”
"But you're making a lot of money from it. ”
"No matter how much money you have, you can only satisfy your body, such as food and clothing, but for your soul, you can't be satisfied with money. ”
"Mind, what do you mean?"
"Love!"
When Aojie heard this, he responded with only two words: "Boring." ”
"Don't you like it, official, anyway, I think it's good, this era is too impetuous, most people just seek temporary pleasure, I don't appreciate it, I still like the precious love that flows through the long stream, but that kind of thing, the last time I saw it was fifteen years ago, that kind of love, alas, it's a pity that I can't come back. When the shopkeeper said, it was as if he was reminiscing about the past.
As he spoke, time began to pass little by little, and at dusk, most of the guests were gone, after all, that kind of thing happened recently, and it was still dangerous to walk around at night, they were still interested, and they left as soon as dusk, and the rest of the guests, most of them were going to stay all night, and they would not leave the tavern, Of course, except for the four of them, the four of them, were quietly waiting for the dark.
