Ye Dai didn't seem to be interested in chatting, and Ding Chen was also very interested, so he took the initiative to retire without waiting for the beauty to open her mouth to drive people away. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Because the pork is being processed in the restaurant, there is not much hot water left, Ding Chen failed to realize his desire to take a hot bath, and took a battle bath with cold water to finish the matter, but fortunately, the water in the apartment water pipe was directly brought up from the river by a water truck, and it was not cold at all in the summer.

At this time, he probably understood why the men had to wash downstairs, this is because he knew that there was no hot water when he went back, so it was better to save trouble in the yard.

After taking a shower, he washed his close-fitting clothes again, changed the outfit he wore last night, and went downstairs to dry the washed clothes.

Downstairs, in the open space facing south, there are several iron pillars with wires on which people are drying clothes. It looks starry tonight, it shouldn't rain, just dry your clothes so you can wear them again tomorrow. As a big man, Ding Chen unfortunately does not have the habit of carrying more changes of clothes with him, there are only two sets in total, if there is another three long and two short tomorrow, he will have no clothes to change.

The crowd washing downstairs had long since disappeared, and what made Ding Chen strange was that the courtyard was quiet, and no one could be seen. He couldn't help but complain in his heart, "This is really sunrise and sunset and rest."

As he was hanging his clothes on the wire, he heard someone shouting, "Who's where?" ”

Ding Chen looked back, a head poked out from the roof of the building, he raised his head and said, "I'll dry a few clothes." ”

"You're new here?" The man said uncertainly, "Why didn't you go to the restaurant to eat?" ”

"Have you finished eating?" Ding Chen still ate a piece of barbecue with Zhu Yu and them when he was dealing with wild boar in the afternoon, he was really a little hungry at this time, and he originally wanted to go back to the room to get something to eat, but then he listened to the words of the sentry above his head, and suddenly changed his mind, "I'll go now." He said, "Do you want me to bring you something to eat?" ”

"Carlo has already sent it to me." The man said, "Hurry up." ”

Ding Chen agreed, but he still unhurriedly stretched and hung up the clothes in his hand, and made sure that they were clamped with clips, so he stopped, and when he was about to go back to the building, he heard the sentry on the roof ask again: "I heard that you killed the wild boar?" ”

Ding Chen looked up at him, to be honest, although the apartment building only has five floors, it is quite difficult to talk with his neck tilted like this, especially Ding Chen can't see the appearance of the person on the roof of the building at all, only a dark shadow against the background of the moon.

"I killed it with Zheng Yu." He said.

"No kidding." The man said, "That kid hasn't grown yet." ”

"I don't think the two things are necessarily related." Ding Chen said very sincerely: "I'm going to the restaurant." ”

"Go ahead." The man said, "Can you show me your knife sometime?" ”

Ding Chen waved his hand and walked into the building.

He didn't expect so many people in the restaurant.

In fact, when he had just come down from the upper floor to dry his clothes, he heard a commotion coming from the dining room. But I didn't expect that there would be hundreds of people here, and I'm afraid that all the people in the apartment came here.

Several tables in the restaurant are filled with plates of steaming dishes for people to take to themselves. The table in the corner of the wall was full of steamed buns and pastries that had just come out of the pot, and the flour without bleach was slightly yellow, but it still did not delay its attractive fragrance, which made Ding Chen feel his index finger move.

Seeing Ding Chen walk in, Zheng Yu greeted him excitedly and asked, "Why did you come?" I went to your room to look for you just now, you weren't there, where did you go? ”

"I'll go down and dry my clothes." Ding Chen was a little confused, and hesitated to stand at the door and look around.

Zheng Yu didn't give him a chance to hesitate, grabbed his hand and pulled it inside. "Come here." He said, "We mentioned you just now. You're so handsome. ”

"You've been drinking?" Ding Chen was a little inexplicable, thinking to himself that you probably didn't have a chance to see me go out at that time. He saw a suspiciously colored liquid on the table and in the cups in people's hands, and also smelled a burst of alcohol from Zheng Yu's body, but he didn't expect that there would be wine here, you must know that no matter what time it is, alcohol must be considered a luxury, and he doesn't think that the people in the apartment have enough food to support this consumption.

Zheng Yu didn't expect Ding Chen to guess the source of the wine, and said with a big tongue: "Drink a little...... It doesn't matter, fruit wine is not intoxicating. ”

Ding Chen didn't believe what he said at all, because it seemed that Zheng Yu was a little drunk now.

Zheng Yu pulled him to a round table near the bar. They were seen coming up and gave up a seat. Ding Chen saw that Zhu Yu, Huo Si, and Zheng Tai were all there. Probably because the restaurant was too small to accommodate so many people, the chairs were removed, and only a few stools remained on the side of the bar. A group of half-grown children frolicked through the crowd, seemingly unallowed to drink, but with food scraps on their hands and faces.

Along the way, Ding Chen found that many people were looking at him, and most of them looked at him with similar eyes, with a kind smile with unconcealed curiosity.

Someone stuffed him with a glass filled with a yellowish liquid with a strong aroma of wine.

"It's cider." Hoss leaned in Ding Chen's ear and said loudly: "There is an orchard on the other side of the mountain, and the fruits that cannot be eaten are made into wine. ”

Then he shouted, "Let him eat something first." ”

When he was talking to Ding Chen, many people raised their cups to Ding Chen, so Huo Si hurriedly stepped forward to stop him.

He used a knife to cut a small piece of meat from a large piece of meat on the table. Poke it with a knife and hand it to Ding Chen, "Eat some of this first, so as not to get drunk at once." It's delicious, but it's a lot of stamina. ”

The meat is a little old and there are no condiments. However, Ding Chen has never been a gourmet, and naturally he is not picky, so he swallowed the whole piece of meat in one bite.

After eating two pieces of meat, I drank a few glasses of wine with everyone. There were so many people that he didn't even hear what these people were saying. The Mandarin spoken by the people here in the apartment has a little accent, and Ding Chen has a hard time listening to it if he speaks quickly, and if the tongue of the person who speaks is bigger, he basically has to guess again.

When there was chaos, Daddy came over.

Seeing Daddy appear, Huo Si and the others let go of Ding Chen. Daddy pulled Ding Chen to the bar and sat down. There are actually a lot of people here, but when they saw that Dad and Ding Chen were going to talk, everyone avoided them with great interest.

"It is customary to hold celebrations whenever there is a major harvest." Daddy explained. "Last month's wheat harvest was celebrated once. But someone died today, and the celebration was not respectful enough for Zhang Wei's family, so it directly turned into a dinner. ”

"So you don't have to pay for this meal today?" Ding Chen keenly grasped the implicit meaning of his father's words.

He has a good amount of alcohol, and the cider may have stamina, but it certainly hasn't started to work yet, so Ding Chen's mind is still very clear.

He frowned and said, "Zhang Wei still has relatives?" ”

"Each of us has loved ones." Daddy looked at him, "Anyway, thank you for today." He said to Ding Chen, "Thank you for everything you have done today. ”

Ding Chen shook his head, "But Zhang Wei is still dead." ”

"Everybody is going to die." Dad said: "Today is Zhang Wei, tomorrow may be you and me." So the outcome is not important, what matters is whether we are doing the right thing or not. ”

"You're confusing me." Ding Chen said: "Does this kind of thing happen often? ”

"We live in an era where there is no tomorrow, don't we?" Daddy said. He beckoned to his daughter, who appeared at the kitchen door, "Get him something to eat." He turned to Ding Chen again, "Do you like to drink?" ”

Ding Chen hesitated and shook his head. Alcohol was not new to him, but he was not in the habit of drinking. Basically, he can drink when everyone drinks it, but if there is only one person, he can't think of drinking such a thing.

"It's a good habit." Dad was very satisfied, "If you want to drink, fill your stomach first." He patted Ding Chen's shoulder, "You can eat as much as you can, don't be polite." After this, it won't be free in the future. ”
