8. Stories & Wine
There is never less story, and neither is the wine.
Lonely people use wine to water the growth of stories, and cheerful people use stories to explain the sweetness of wine.
When I was in college, everyone had to take the English level test, and the undergraduate students took the fourth and sixth grades, and the higher vocational students took the A level.
The English A-level test is actually very simple, but it is still a bit difficult for Li Youbin, who has not learned English well since he was a child, and he always listens to the questions of the exam every time the English teacher explains the questions.
In fact, there is no need to apply for this exam in the first semester, because there are two times a year, but Li Youbin still wants to try, maybe he can be lucky and get by?
The A-level exam is listening, unlike our usual exams, which require special headphones to tune in to a designated channel to hear, just like the principle we used to listen to the radio with the radio.
The problem is that a headset costs thirty or forty, you say buy one, it's really not cost-effective, borrow one, he doesn't know who has it.
When he thought of Lu Chaoling, it was when he really couldn't borrow it.
When she called, Lu Chaoling seemed to have just woken up, and her voice was like a lazy little sheep.
"Lu Chaoling, do you have any headphones for the English level test?"
"Headphones...... Oh, yes, what's wrong? ”
"I signed up for this year's A-level exam, can you borrow me headphones."
"Oh, yes, but there are conditions."
"On what terms?"
"You'll have to give it back to me when you're done with it, and you'll have to treat me to dinner."
"No problem."
The exam was held on Saturday, and Li Youbin and Lu Chaoling borrowed headphones on Thursday.
I have seen Lu Chaoling a few times in the past two days, and she still has some changes, and she likes to let Li Youbin call her eldest brother.
It's still quite cold in November in the north.
On Friday, Lu Chaoling called Li Youbin to go down and get headphones.
Li Youbin's blindness was committed again, and after going downstairs, he looked for Lu Chaoling in the neighborhood for a long time.
"The vast end of the world is my love, the flowers are blooming at the foot of the green hills, what kind of rhythm is the most swaying ......"
The mobile phone in his pocket rang with the caller, and Li Youbin picked up the phone.
"Hey, where are you?"
"You turn around and look back."
Li Youbin turned around, glanced left and right, and saw Lu Chaoling standing against the table tennis table. He grinned, hung up the phone and walked over.
"Your phone rings a lot." Lu Chaoling looked at the tall man in front of him and raised her eyebrows.
"It's okay, it's okay." Li Youbin scratched his head in embarrassment.
"Here you go." Lu Chaoling stuffed the headphones in her hand into Li Youbin's arms.
"Thank you." Li Youbin took the headphones and saw Lu Chaoling's red cheeks, and couldn't help but be a little concerned, "It's not cold." ”
"What do you say?" Lu Chaoling glanced at Li Youbin, hugged his arms and stomped his feet.
"Let's go, I'll take you to eat noodles to suppress the shock."
Li Youbin couldn't help but pull Lu Chaoling's arm and walked out.
Lan Zhijian is built at the foot of Renshou Mountain in Anning District, it is indeed a very remote place, although the school is not big, but because of the proximity to the scenic spot, there are many kinds of snacks.
There is a particularly delicious noodle restaurant directly opposite the school gate, the special noodle of this noodle restaurant is "Chongqing small noodles", the small noodles are large, and there are many chili peppers, which is especially suitable for winter eating.
It seems that some of the edible chili peppers related to Chongqing are very numerous, and what Chongqing earthen stove hot pot or the like is particularly spicy. In fact, Li Youbin doesn't like spicy food, but Lu Chaoling seems to like spicy food very much, maybe girls like spicy food, and the weather is also very cold, so Li Youbin still pulled Lu Chaoling to eat noodles.
"Boss, two small noodles and one big cake!"
Li Youbin is still very down-to-earth, and it may be that the old men in the north may be very arrogant.
"Okay."
Lu Chaoling was puzzled: "Why do you still want cakes when you eat small noodles?"
"You don't understand that, do you?" Speaking of this, Li Youbin was very proud, "Although there are many noodles, they are spicy, and this cake is the most delicious to eat." ”
"I don't believe it."
"If you don't believe it, you can try it later."
Li Youbin is not interested in studying, but he has studied food quite thoroughly. He can even study several ways to eat one thing.
Of course, this is nothing to show off, a foodie said that he has many ways to eat a food, which is equivalent to Tao Bihua saying that she has many ways to eat the same old godmother.
While Li Youbin and Lu Chaoling were chatting, the aunt had already prepared the noodles and served them.
"Here, two of you." Auntie put the noodles on the table.
Li Youbin held the cake in one hand and the chopsticks in the other, and ate the cake with a mouthful of noodles.
Lu Chaoling looked very curious, stared at it for a while, and suddenly said, "Can you give me a taste of your cake?"
"Yes." Li Youbin broke half and handed it to Lu Chaoling.
She also followed Li Youbin's example and ate a bite of cake on this small noodle.
"How?"
"Delicious!"
"Boss, another cake!" Li Youbin turned his head and snorted.
After thinking about it, he would shout: "The old village chief with another bottle."
"Okay."
The old village chief and Niulanshan Erguotou are the most mellow wine in the eyes of northerners, not how delicious Niulanshan is, but mainly cheap. Li Youbin grew up drinking Niulanshan since he was a child, and the wine in old Beijing is not as moist as other wines, a little strong, and spicy.
After going to college, I stopped drinking Niulanshan and started drinking the old village chief, not because the old village chief was better than Niulanshan, but because the store near the school really didn't sell Niulanshan.
Unscrew the cap and the smell of wine wafts into your nose. The tip of the nose is on the mouth of the bottle and sniffs fiercely, as if smelling all kinds of things in the world, and the aftertaste is endless.
Looking at Li Youbin's ecstatic expression, Lu Chaoling slapped him on the head, chopping him back to reality from the dream.
"What do you think, don't you fill it up for your eldest brother soon."
"Okay, okay."
Li Youbin poured a glass of wine for him and Lu Chaoling, and each of them raised a glass and lightly touched it, and Li Youbin drank it all.
Lu Chaoling obviously didn't know how to drink, so she slowly drank with her mouth closed.
Baijiu is different from beer, you drink beer slowly because there is no way, baijiu is different, you have to drink it dry in one go, and you feel hot and spicy in your throat and eyes after a cup, mixed with a little sweetness, but it is not bitter, if you want to drink it slowly, there will be some bitterness on the tip of the tongue.
"It doesn't taste good." Lu Chaoling drank a cup and smashed her mouth.
"It's definitely not good for you to drink like this, you learn from me."
As he spoke, Li Youbin poured another cup for each of them. Picking up the wine cup, he took another sip and sent it directly to his throat, and Lu Chaoling also took a sip like him, and was a little choked.
"You lied to me!"
"Hahaha......"
It was already half past ten when I came out of the noodle shop.
Before I knew it, there was snow in the sky.
Lu Chaoling stood in the snow with a red face, looked at the falling snowflakes in the sky, muttered "It's so beautiful", and then stretched out her arms to watch the sky slowly rotate.
The drunk girl is as innocent as a child.
Li Youbin put his hands in his pockets, leaned back to the door of the noodle restaurant and smiled at the scene in front of him, he thought: It would be great if he could continue like this.
