Chapter 16: Drinking in the City
Jiangcheng is a bustling water town in the south of the Yangtze River and a densely populated big city. In Jiangcheng, there are all kinds of shops selling food and clothing, and there are many high-end entertainment venues.
In general, when entering a large city, you will need to show a road guide or other proof of identity. It's a normal time now, and the inspection is not very strict, and only some strange-looking or other special people will be checked.
After Chen Qian was woken up by Chen Xiaotian, she actually changed back to Chen Qian who came through the time. As soon as she spoke, she was exposed, and Chen Xiaotian knew about it.
The two of them got out of the carriage, and the coachman went to look for other guests himself.
Chen Qian and Chen Xiaotian looked at the city gate where people came and went.
Chen Xiaotian said, "This is Jiangcheng. Big enough. ”
Chen Qian said, "It's okay, it's about the same as the population flow of our town. ”
Chen Xiaotian said, "It seems that there are really a lot of people there. Let's go into town, aren't you hungry in the morning, and talking some nonsense. Let's go to the restaurant for a good meal. ”
Chen Qian said with a smile, "Chen Xiaotian, the story was not nonsense at that time, you were still quite sensible, you actually brought me to a big meal and walked." ”
Chen Xiaotian nodded.
Chen Xiaotian and Chen Qian walked to the city gate, and Chen Qian was stopped.
A chubby soldier in armor stood in front of Chen Qian and said, "It's not very pleasing to the eye, please show your guide." ”
Chen Qian said curiously, "When you enter a city, why do you still need to record?" May I ask the official, how to record the method, can you say it clearly, this son will cooperate well. ”
The red tassel gun in the soldier's hand pointed at Chen Qian's chest, and said ruthlessly, "You can't enter the city without a road guide, please go back, and then disturb the work to perform official duties, and correct the law on the spot." ”
Chen Qian's neck shrunk. Remembering the soldier's appearance, I went back to investigate if he couldn't see the light.
At this time, Chen Xiaotian turned his head, stood up, and took out two notes with notes written on them to show the soldiers, along with portraits and names, as well as the seal of the issuing authority.
Chen Xiaotian grabbed Chen Qian's arm with one hand and said, "We are in a group, please confirm if there is a problem." ”
The soldier compared.
returned the strip to Chen Xiaotian. And said, "There is no problem with the guide, you can go in, don't pretend to be stupid in the future." ”
Chen Xiaotian took Chen Qian into the city.
Entering the city, Chen Qian saw the streets extending in all directions and exclaimed, "It's really prosperous here." Lu Yin's portrait of me is very realistic, and I chopped off the big vase, which feels very beautiful. It's a pity that there should be no plastic surgery in this era. ”
Chen Xiaotian said, "Qian, don't you need a guide to enter the city?" ”
Chen Qian looked back at Chen Xiaotian and said, "I don't call it Lu Yin, I call it ID card." Let's go get something to eat first. I'm afraid I'm hungry again. ”
Chen Xiaotian said, "This big vase is a magical mark, if it grows somewhere else." ”
Chen Qian said, "Did I have this before I came to awaken?" ”
Chen Xiaotian looked at Chen Qian and said, "I saw her for the first time. ”
Chen Qian said, "What's wrong with her, why can't I get her memory." ”
Chen Xiaotian said, "She is her, you are you, how can other people's memories come to you?" ”
Chen Qian said, "That's it, then after I come, is she still there?" ”
Chen Xiaotian said, "She is gone, but you will sleep intermittently, I won't wake up no matter how I call, I called you for a long time just now before you woke up." ”
Chen Qian said, "It's a pity, I'm sorry, I will return my intact body to you in the future, Chen Xiaotian, from today onwards, you must not have crooked thoughts about me." Otherwise I would be a sinner. ”
Chen Xiaotian said, "Okay, I'll raise you to be chubby for nothing, go." ”
Chen Xiaotian took Chen Qian through the roadside stalls of various vendors. I came to a restaurant called Fuguilou.
There are a lot of guests here, and the guys are also very polite, Chen Qian and Chen Xiaotian were arranged to an empty seat, which is an ordinary seat by the window on the first floor. Because the seat on the second floor was already full, Chen Xiaotian couldn't afford to wait. So I asked the guy if there were any ordinary seats that were empty.
The guy respectfully introduced the free elegant seat, and Chen Qian chose this one.
Chen Qian looked at the menu on the desktop. I don't know some of the text on it.
She called a few dish names randomly, "shallots mixed with tofu, water spinach and pork slices, braised beef, abalone, bird's nest." ”
Chen Xiaotian listened to the first few dishes and heard the abalone bird's nest. frowned, and said, "Man, let's have one dish before the abalone, add two bowls of rice, and a pot of drunk tomorrow, I don't want abalone and bird's nest, hurry up and serve it." ”
The guy quickly wrote down the list, bent down and said politely, "Okay, please wait a minute, the meal will be coming soon." ”
The guy turned and went in the direction of the back kitchen.
Chen Qian said, "Why don't you want abalone bird's nest?" ”
Chen Xiaotian said, "I'm poor, okay, I can't afford to eat, one day, Qian, you have money, you can invite me to eat." ”
Chen Qian said, "Actually, I haven't eaten it, I just listened to it on TV." ”
Chen Xiaotian said, "Is it a person on TV? Why do you believe what he says? ”
Chen Qian was amused and said, "The people on TV said okay, understand, stupid." ”
Chen Xiaotian said, "What is TV, place names, landforms? ”
Chen Qian said, "TV is a bit like the current shadow puppetry, but the people on the screen are real." They write the event they want to express into a container and read it out of the container when they watch it. Through the air to the television, you can see the events they have expressed earlier. And you can see it from thousands of miles away, which is amazing. ”
Chen Xiaotian listened attentively. After listening to this, he said, "This thing is quite complicated, and it seems that I can't make it in a short time." ”
Chen Qian smiled and said, "This is really not something you can do." ”
Chen Xiaotian said, "Then let's wait." You can't waste all your time researching in life. It's not a dish. ”
The guy was already carrying a tray with a few dishes and rice on the tray.
The guy put the meal on the table.
I brought them two pairs of chopsticks and a jug of wine, and two shot glasses.
The guy said, "Guest, please slow down." ”
Chen Qian looked at the dishes on the table. asked Chen Chen Xiaotian, "How much does it cost to pay for such a table of dishes?" ”
Chen Xiaotian ordered the dishes and wine on the table, pinched his fingers and counted for a while, and said, "Let's ask for more than 2 taels." ”
Chen Qian said, "What if you add an abalone." ”
Chen Xiaotian said, "No matter how you say it, it will cost a few hundred taels." ”
Chen Qian said, "It turns out that thing is so expensive, I watch the palace and palace on TV, and every day is delicacies from the mountains and seas." ”
Chen Xiaotian said, "You also said that it was the palace, and I was just a flat-headed commoner, not even an official." ”
Chen Qian said, "Let's eat vegetables, I'm hungry." ”
Chen Xiaotian said, "Eat, eat, eat." ”
The two of them began to gobble up. Most of the dishes were wiped out in one fell swoop.
At this time, he drank a little wine.
Chen Qian drank this wine and felt that it was sweet in her mouth, so she drank a few more glasses. Now I'm asleep on the table. Chen Xiaotian blushed, looked at Chen Qian and said, "That's the amount of wine." ”
He paid the bill and helped Chen Qian, who was already drunk, out of the Fugui Building.
It's already evening, and it looks like we're going to spend the night at the inn again.
