Chapter 4 Buying Wine
After all, it is the heart of a teenager, He Yan left home, and he was bored for a while, but the kung fu of not having a cup of tea returned to the familiar He Yan.
At this time, although I had lunch, it was still early in the morning.
He Yan turned his head and asked Fang Shuo: "The first step is complete, where do we go to the second step?" ”
Fang Shuo drove the driveway: "Go buy wine." ”
"Huh? Buying alcohol? No, Fang Shuo, what do you buy wine for, you don't drink. He Yan was puzzled.
Fang Shuo replied, "Since I don't drink. Of course, this wine was not bought for me. ”
He Yan asked again: "Then you still buy it, who do you buy it for?" ”
Fang Shuo replied again: "This wine is naturally bought for people who drink wine. ”
"Oh, you're all confused, what are you doing?" He Yan said wildly.
After eating a full lunch, the carriage swayed for a while, Fang Shuo stretched his waist, handed the whip to He Yan, yawned and said, "Buy it for apprenticeship." You are familiar with this place, let's go to a place where you can buy good wine. ”
The apprentice wants to buy wine, what kind of rule is this? Is Xuanyue Mountain accepting disciples like this? He Yan was puzzled, and when he turned his head, he saw Fang Shuo holding his arms and squinting, and he didn't mean to speak, so He Yan closed his mouth in amusement.
The carriage traveled for a while and came to a restaurant.
He Yan opened his mouth and said: "When you arrive, you want to buy good wine in Lingquan, and it is not wrong to go here." ”
When I looked up, there was a plaque hanging on the main entrance of the restaurant, with three big characters written on it, and Fang Shuo read softly: "Boil Water Building." After thinking about it, Fang Shuo praised and said: "This restaurant is so bold and has a good name." ”
Unexpectedly, as soon as Fang Shuo finished speaking, he didn't know who was beside him, and said faintly: "What a fart, what a broken name." ”
When Fang Shuo heard this, he was immediately terrified, and he was shocked into a cold sweat. The person next to him leaned over before he knew it. He appeared silently, not knowing whether he was friend or foe, and what purpose he had.
Fang Shuo quickly turned around and looked, but saw that the person beside him was actually a young man.
The boy was tilting his head and looking at the words on the plaque. Without waiting for Fang Shuo to speak, the young man tilted his head to the other side and said, "A pot of water has been boiled for a long time, isn't it still water?" That is, if it is boiled, what tricks can be boiled. It's better to call it a delicious building. ”
At this time, He Yan on the side saw that the young man did not agree with Fang Shuo's words, and took a step forward to stare at him and said dissatisfiedly: "The meaning of the boiling water building is that this restaurant has excellent cooking skills, even if it only boils a pot of water, it can also boil a hundred flavors." What is literary style, what is courage, you know what. ”
The young man's body remained unchanged, he only turned his eyes to He Yan, staring at He Yan and not speaking.
Seeing the situation in front of him, Fang Shuo was even more panicked, and without waiting for He Yan to make any moves, he quickly pulled He Yan over, blocking the young man's sight, and said, "How offended, don't blame Dao friends." ”
"You seem to be afraid of me." The boy frowned and said, "Do I know you?" ”
Fang Shuo replied cautiously: "I shouldn't know." ”
"Oh, in my head, there are people and things that I have forgotten." The boy asked, "Do you know me?" ”
"I don't know you either." Fang Shuo said.
When the young man heard this, he suddenly lost his spirit, and gave a salute casually: "Master, my name is the ancient proverb, you have to remember it in the future." And next time you see me, I'll say hello. Fang Shuo saluted: "In the lower Shuo, this is his friend He Yan." Fortunately. After Fang Shuo finished speaking, he didn't see the ancient proverb return the salute, and as soon as the ancient proverb finished speaking, he turned around and entered the boiling water building.
He Yan looked at the ancient proverb like this, and said dissatisfiedly: "This person is so rude, Fang Shuo, why do you want to talk to him, why are you talking so much." ”
Fang Shuo didn't know what the identity of the ancient proverb was, but with the fact that he could stand silently by his side, Fang Shuo could only deal with it cautiously.
He Yan has not yet practiced, and he has not noticed the extraordinary skills of the ancient proverb. Fang Shuo was afraid that after telling him the truth, He Yan would startle the snake, so he decided to hide it first.
So Fang Shuo pretended to be relaxed and said: "Walking the rivers and lakes, remember not to argue with others." Let's get down to business, let's get inside. ”
The two of them entered the boiling water building, and the aroma of food came to their faces. The sweetness of the rice, the fresh aroma of the beef and mutton, and the freshness of various vegetables are like waves that are endless.
He Yan took a deep breath and reveled intoxicated: "The boiling water building is the boiling water building, no matter how many times I come, it makes me linger." ”
Fang Shuo also praised: "Well, that's good. This boiling water building is really not misnamed. I've heard a lot of your praises, but seeing it today is an eye-opener for me. No wonder you always call me here for a meal. ”
He Yan said proudly: "How is it, do you regret it?" Anyway, I've invited you many times, but you haven't come a few times. It's all your loss. ”
Fang Shuo rarely agreed with He Yan's words, nodded and said, "It's time to come and see and understand." ”
He Yan smiled: "What, I really regret it." That's none of my business. Who told you to always excuse yourself? ”
However, He Yan didn't have a chance to scream, because he ate quite well at his house at noon.
After being proud for a while, He Yan said with a bitter face: "Hey, I've already had lunch today, how can I still eat at this time." Well, it's a trip for nothing. ”
He Yan complained a few words and was still angry, and even patted his hands behind his back and said: "Tell me, how can someone come to boil the water building and not eat." What are we doing here? ”
Fang Shuo laughed happily when he saw He Yan's depressed appearance, and after laughing enough, he persuaded: "It's okay, it's okay." I can't eat it today, so let's come back next time. Don't forget, what we're here for? You, let's hurry up and get some wine. ”
He Yan is an understanding person, but he just thinks it's a pity to come for nothing. He took two steps forward dejectedly, then turned around and complained to Fang Shuo: "It's all your fault, if you had told me earlier that you wanted to buy wine, you wouldn't be able to buy it one day." Where would you miss this meal today? ”
Fang Shuo scolded with a smile: "Look at your virtue, isn't it just a meal." If you had told me that you were going to practice, would you have waited until now? Who told you to say it today, and blame me? Beat your wine and go. ”
He Yan stopped at this time and obediently went to drink. Fang Shuo sat down at the nearest table at his leisure.
Only then did I realize that in addition to the food in the boiling water building, the ornaments in the boiling water building alone were so high that I don't know where to go. The tables and chairs are all made of fine wood, and when you touch them, you can feel that they are some years old. Looking up at the high and low trend in the building, the layout of the furnishings is quite orderly, but in very few places, it is very unruly.
As he was calculating how to change it, Fang Shuo suddenly found that the ancient proverb was coincidentally feasting on the table where some people didn't follow the rules.
Is this a coincidence, or is it deliberately done by the old proverb?
Fang Shuo lowered his head, tapped his fingers on the table and thought, and inadvertently raised his head and looked back at the ancient proverb. I didn't expect to look at the eyes of the ancient proverb looking at me. It seems that the old proverb has been staring at himself for a while.
Fang Shuo was taken aback again, thinking that this ancient proverb was by no means an idle person. Not showing a flustered state, Fang Shuo smiled generously and nodded to the ancient proverb, and then sat up straight. I don't want the old proverb to come to my side, and my hands are still holding the roast leg of lamb I was just eating.
The ancient proverb sat down at Fang Shuo's table and saw that Fang Shuo hadn't ordered any dishes, only the teapot and water cups in the building on the table. The old proverb frowned and asked, "Why didn't you order any dishes?" Do you think it doesn't taste good? ”
Fang Shuo just wanted to speak, but the ancient proverb continued: "I think it's delicious." You see, this leg of lamb is delicious. After speaking, the ancient proverb also handed Fang Shuo the leg of mutton that had not been gnawed on his right hand.
Fang Shuo Shili pushed back and said, "Thank you, Brother Gu Yan." I've already eaten it though, and I don't have much appetite right now. Brother Gu please. ”
The old proverb bit the leg of lamb and mumbled, and then took his hand back. It is also strange to say that although the ancient proverb is indecent to eat, and he is holding a roast leg of lamb with a lot of oil in his hand, except for his hands and mouth, there is no oil star on his body.
After a leg of mutton was solved in a few moments, Gu Yan looked at Fang Shuo and asked, "When I saw you on the road just now, I felt that the smell on your body was very familiar, you really don't know me?" ”
Fang Shuo replied truthfully: "I'm really sorry, Fang really doesn't know Brother Gu. ”
The ancient proverb wanted to speak again, but was grabbed by He Yan, who had just come back from drinking.
He Yan was already dissatisfied with Gu Yan, and when he came back and saw that Gu Yan was still sitting next to Fang Shuo, as soon as his anger came up, he forgot all the words that Fang Shuo had instructed.
He Yan said strangely: "Yo, isn't this an ancient proverb, Gu Gongzi?" Why are you sitting at our table? Don't you dislike the name of this boiling water building? Why are you eating it now? ”
Fang Shuo pulled He Yan's clothes and pretended to be strange: "Why did you come back, and you went to Yongzhou for drinking." Hurry up and sit down, you're embarrassed to say that Brother Gu is not. After speaking, Fang Shuo apologized to Gu Yan and said, "Brother Gu, forgive me." ”
As if I hadn't heard the old proverb, I ate the leg of lamb in my left hand and ate it deliciously. He Yan sat on the bench on Fang Shuo's right and didn't speak.
The scene was suddenly a little embarrassing, and Fang Shuo had no choice but to ask He Yan, "Is the wine back?" Where? ”
He Yan said with some annoyance: "I don't know what the rules are in this boiling water building, and the wine can't be taken out." I've been here many times and I've never heard of it. It's good, but it took me a lot of effort. Hey, you know how many nice things I said? begged grandfather to tell grandmother to beg them, and sent them to kneel. However, fortunately, I finally bought three jars of wine. Otherwise, let's go back wherever we came. ”
Fang Shuo smiled lightly: "Okay, don't complain." It's all for yourself. Let's buy the wine, so don't delay any longer. Let's go. ”
Before the leg of lamb in his hand was finished, the old proverb asked, "Where are you going?" ”
He Yan was about to have a seizure, Fang Shuo glared at him and replied to the ancient proverb: "The two of us are about to go to Xuanyue Mountain. ”
"Xuanyue Mountain? What's good there, the smell is too bad, there's nothing good to eat, what are you going to do there? The old proverb asked again.
"Fang Mou is a disciple of Xuanyue Mountain, and he is here to visit his family teacher. Although there are no local products, the scenery of Mt. Gentake is rare in the world. Brother Gu can also go and have a look. ”
Fang Shuo originally said polite words, and he didn't really want to invite him. But the old proverb unexpectedly agreed, and he quickly ate the leg of lamb in his hand and replied, "Okay." ”
