Chapter 150: Take a step forward

Unconsciously, in the friendly and fluent tour introduction of the tour guide girl Xiao Luo to the "Golden Autumn Group", the minibus has arrived at a Chinese restaurant arranged by the tour guide in advance near the suburbs of Paris.

"Friends, please get out of the car and eat. You can leave your luggage on the bus with you as long as you bring your small bags and valuables with you. The driver of the minibus will ensure the absolute safety of the luggage on board. ”

After the tour guide girl finished speaking, she walked easily and got off the bus first.

Then, the tourists on the bus followed the tour guide one by one to get off the bus.

Liping and Mengdu were the last to get off the bus.

After getting off the bus, they saw the members of the "Golden Autumn Troupe" following the tour guide, and one by one they entered a restaurant with a small face and no grandeur, so they also followed towards the restaurant.

On the way to the restaurant, I looked up and saw a six-meter-long, one-meter-high white signboard on a red background above the storefront of the restaurant.

The eight big characters on the signboard stand out:

"Chinese Hunan Restaurant in Paris".

After entering the gate, there is a small hall. The hall is about 180 square meters.

The four walls of the hall are white walls painted with ordinary latex paint, and the walls are clean and clean, without any other decoration.

In the hall, there are seven or eight old Chinese-style Eight Immortal Tables neatly placed;

In addition, there are four small Western-style long tables by the floor-to-ceiling glass windows in the hall adjacent to the street, which are the kind of small dining tables that are common in train dining cars.

At this time, whether it is around the Eight Immortals Table or the small long table, there are guests who are enjoying Chinese food.

If you listen to them, you will know that these customers are all tourists from China.

It seems that the business of this Chinese-style Hunan restaurant is still very prosperous!

After the tour guide girl entered the door, she walked quickly to the bar and whispered a few words to the owner of the bar.

It can be seen that the tour guide and the owner are more familiar with each other.

After the conversation, the hotel owner smiled and asked the tour guide girl to smoke, and the tour guide Xiao Luo quickly waved his hand and declined, telling the boss that he was not a smoker.

Then, the owner of the hotel led all the members of the "Golden Autumn Regiment" to the second floor.

The area of the second floor is basically the same as that of the hall on the first floor. The layout of the second floor is no different from the first floor:

Upstairs, there is neither decoration nor private rooms, but seven or eight old Chinese-style Eight Immortal Tables are neatly placed.

But I saw that next to all the dining tables on the second floor, except for the two Eight Immortal Tables reserved in advance, the other tables were all full of dining guests.

There are a total of 20 tourists in the "Golden Autumn Group", and after going up to the second floor, they happened to fill the two tables reserved by the hotel.

Needless to say, the tour guide Xiao Luo and the minibus driver who had just come upstairs after parking the car obviously had no seats.

Therefore, someone in the tour group suggested that the tour guide Xiao Luo and the bus driver should go to the two eight immortal tables where the tour group sits, and squeeze one person into each one.

After hearing this, the tour guide girl shook her head with a smile and declined:

"Thank you all for your kindness! Just eat. I am familiar with this restaurant, and the owner will arrange a small table for me and the driver. Okay, everyone, please eat. ”

After finishing speaking, the tour guide girl asked the restaurant owner to arrange for the food to be served.

At this time, one of the tour group members whispered to the tour guide:

"Xiao Luo, where is the bathroom?"

"Oh, you walk about ten meters along your left hand, and there's a door there. Once you enter the door, you will find the bathroom. Both the men's and women's bathrooms are inside that door. ”

The tour guide girl immediately replied.

The member of the tour group who was questioning immediately walked to the bathroom.

In this way, without anyone opening their mouths, the rest of the tour group will yawn like a crowd, one person yawns, and a group of people will yawn; At this moment, when the first group member walked to the bathroom, the other members also followed to the bathroom one by one.

Because there were too many people going to the bathroom at the same time, it was too crowded, so the group members had to take turns to go to the toilet in batches.

The members who do not go to the bathroom for the time being help take care of the belongings of the other members who are placed on the seats around the Eight Immortals table.

Because Mengdu and Liping are husband and wife, they also went to the toilet in two batches.

Liping has always had a humble character, and the bathroom is no exception.

She saw that the members of the tour group were crowded and walked to the bathroom, so she took the initiative to ask Mengdu to go to the toilet first.

After Mengdu came back from the bathroom and sat down at the table of the Eight Immortals, Liping slowly walked towards the bathroom.

Speaking of which, the bathrooms in this hotel are very simple:

The men's and women's bathrooms enter through the same sliding door.

After entering the door, there are two small doors on the left and right, and you can enter the men's bathroom and the women's bathroom respectively.

After Liping entered the sliding door, she was about to turn right towards the women's bathroom, when she suddenly saw a rectangular white paper banner with a notice not a notice and a slogan above the small door leading to the men's toilet on the left.

Chinese, pee please step up!

It's-

What does this mean?

Liping glanced at the banner a few times in confusion before slowly turning into the women's bathroom on the right.

After returning from the bathroom, Liping sat down on the seat next to Mengdu and asked softly:

"Mengdu, just now I saw a banner written on white paper above the small door leading to your men's bathroom, and the banner read, 'Chinese, please take a step to pee', what does this mean?"

"Oh ho, what's so strange about this? You don't know, after walking through that small door, there is also a white paper banner with the same content on the wall of the urinal inside. That means that when a man urinates, if he is far away from the urinal, he will pull the urine out of the urinal, which will affect the hygiene of the bathroom. ”

Yumedu replied with a nonchalant face, wiping the chopsticks in front of him with a tissue as he spoke.

"Then, that can't just write 'Chinese', is it only us Chinese who pull urine outside the urinal?" What a shame this makes the Chinese! ”

Liping shook her head in shock and excitement.

"Ahem, girl, don't say it, when it comes to urinating, there are only us Chinese tourists, and many of us are unwilling to take a step forward! Among our Chinese tourists, there are so many such uncivilized phenomena! People have traveled abroad, and they have brought out some bad habits in China, which is indeed a shame! ”

I really didn't expect that when Liping and Mengdu were talking in a whisper, a man in his fifties next to him, who was also one of the members of the "Golden Autumn Troupe", suddenly interjected in a whisper to express his feelings.

"Hey, what the hell are you doing with the birds? We just need to take care of ourselves. Now that we're abroad, we don't care about those idle things! ”

Yumedu glanced at the man in his fifties with some disdain, apparently unwilling to continue the conversation with him.

After Mengdu finished speaking, he immediately waved his hand at Liping and said:

"Remember, we are traveling abroad now, and since we are abroad, we should eat, sleep, and play! Anyway, even if the sky falls, it won't hit us first! ”

Because an outsider interjected, Liping felt a little blushing on her face, so she quietly glanced at the tour group member who was around fifty, then lowered her head, and like a dream, she gently pulled out a tissue from the tissue box on the table and began to wipe the chopsticks in front of her.

As for what Mengdu just said, she didn't pay attention to it.

In Liping's heart, she still weirdly still thinks about the humiliating white paper banner!

Soon, the owner of the restaurant was holding a wooden tray in his left hand, which contained four plates of dishes.

The owner of the restaurant served the food to the guests of the Golden Autumn Group.

Behind the owner of the hotel, there was also a young trot.

In the hands of the trotting hall, several plates of the same dishes as those in the restaurant owner's tray are also held on a tray.

Immediately afterwards, the owner of the restaurant led the way, and one person was responsible for placing the dishes on the tray on the two Eight Immortals tables.

After the dishes were arranged, the owner of the restaurant ordered Trotten to follow him downstairs, and after a while, a pot of hot rice was brought up from someone downstairs, and the rice was placed on two small square stools next to the dining table.

It can be seen that the owner of this "Chinese-style Hunan restaurant" is no different from many small restaurant owners in China, all in order to save costs and reduce the use of hired workers, so when serving meals to guests, many things are done by himself.

The Chinese food served by the restaurant to the guests of the Golden Autumn Group is four dishes and one soup:

A plate of stir-fried pork slices with white radish, a plate of roasted tofu with cabbage, a plate of stir-fried beef cubes with potatoes, a plate of stir-fried cauliflower, and a pot of bone kelp soup.

Maybe it's because the restaurant signboard says "Chinese-style Hunan Restaurant", in the plate of stir-fried pork slices with white radish and roasted tofu with cabbage, the chef Fu obviously added red chili peppers, which makes people feel that these are two authentic Hunan spicy dishes!

The saliva naturally seeped out of the base of the guest's tongue.

Looking at the familiar Chinese dishes on the table of the Eight Immortals, looking at the hot rice, perhaps because they had not eaten properly all day, perhaps because they had eaten for the first time in Paris, the capital of France, or because the Chinese food was particularly fresh abroad, the members of the "Golden Autumn Troupe" took the rice bowls one by one and squeezed around the small square stool to serve the rice.

Because he is from Hunan, after Mengdu starts eating, he first stretches his chopsticks to the plate of stir-fried pork slices with radish and cabbage roasted tofu with red peppers.

Who knew that after he ate a few bites of stir-fried pork slices with radish and roasted tofu with cabbage, he didn't taste any spicy taste at all!

Mengdu immediately shouted to the trot waiting by the staircase:

"Hey, why isn't this dish spicy at all? Do you have chili sauce in your store? ”

"Oh, yes, there's chili sauce. Please pls wait a moment, sir. ”

Trotter nodded respectfully to Yumeto in reply.

After answering, Trotter Hall immediately turned around and went downstairs, and after a while, he returned upstairs with a small tray and two small plates of chili sauce.

After going upstairs, Trotting Hall immediately sent two small plates of chili sauce to the two Eight Immortals tables of the "Golden Autumn Troupe".

Mengdu immediately picked up the chopsticks, unceremoniously picked up a large ball of chili sauce, and stuffed it into his mouth at once.

Hey, it's still not spicy!

It seems that this "Chinese-style Hunan restaurant" located in the suburbs of Paris is completely in vain!

Alas-

No way, who called this in France?

Let's eat it!

The members of the Golden Autumn Troupe on the two Eight Immortals tables no longer questioned whether the dishes on the table were spicy, and bowed their heads one by one and began to eat.

After the tour group members finished their lunch, the tour guide Xiao Luo didn't seem to consider whether everyone needed to rest, and immediately beckoned the group members to get on the bus, and after counting all the heads, he asked the bus driver to drive.
