Chapter 513: I'm used to being pitted
Thomas looked up at the sky that was almost dark, and hesitated, "yes, I really miss the big barrel of beer back home." ”
"We had the opportunity to go to Qingdao, and I heard that the beer there is good, and it is German craftsmanship."
"I've drunk it, it's too light!"
"That's better than nothing!" Saying that, Xu San sorted out the skewers on the stove and brought the grilled ones to the table, "Eat these first!" ”
"Phew!" Thomas pushed the cork off with one hand and poured half a glass of wine for each of them, "Come, today to celebrate my acquaintance with the beautiful Miss An Hong, I will do it first." ”
Thomas's cup was quite large, about two taels in half a cup, but he dried it up in one gulp.
Xiaohong looked at Thomas's bold appearance, and felt that this person was quite good, very talkative, and this drinking was not ambiguous.
She looked at Xu San and asked with her eyes, "How much do I drink?" ”
Xu San picked up the wine glass and drank it all, and said, "You can drink it at will, this whiskey is sour, it's not delicious!" ”
"Smack!" Thomas slammed the bottle on the table, pointed to the logo on the bottle and said, "This is Glenlive, it's the best whiskey!" ”
Xu San took the wine bottle and poured it for himself and Thomas, "Anyway, I can't drink it, any brand has the same flavor." ”
Looking at Xu San's attitude, Thomas grabbed his gray hair vigorously, "You are really hugging, hugging."
Looking at Thomas, Xu San said with a disgusted face, "I'm a man, I don't want a man's hug!" ”
"Little Train, you mean to say Tyranny?" Xiaohong asked weakly on the side.
"That's right! That's the word! Thomas said, picking up his glass and taking a sip.
"Different cultural circles have different aesthetics for wine! I'm not used to your whiskey, but sherry is edible. Xu San took a sip and said, "But beer is a common hobby of people all over the world, well, I'll tell the kitchen to prepare a little when the time comes." ”
"Be prepared!" Thomas emphasized.
"Beer has an expiration date, and it is inconvenient for us to store it, so it is impossible to prepare too much. Besides, no one else drinks it except for the two of us! ”
"It's okay, I can drink as much as you prepare." Thomas said proudly.
"Pap~" Xu San reached out and patted Thomas's stomach, "You better drink less beer on this stomach." ”
Picking up a string of kidneys that were still dripping with oil, "I like this sheep kidney the most!" After saying that, he took a bite very hard and ate it crunching.
Xiaohong's eyebrows moved slightly, feeling that it was so awkward to call her kidneys, and hearing this word seemed to make her appetite decrease a lot in an instant.
"When it is used as an ingredient, it should be called y-yao, z-zi!" Xu San's words were said in English, correcting Thomas's inappropriate use of words.
"Is there a difference?" Thomas asked.
"It's easy to make people have bad associations and affect their appetite!" Xiaohong said.
“ok,y-yao,z-i!” Thomas corrected his pronunciation.
Xu San took two bites of lamb skewers and said, "That's right, little train, you still lack practice in Chinese, I can't bear to cut love, how about letting Xiaohong accompany you to practice Chinese?" How about £10 an hour? ”
"It's too expensive! There is no such high price in London! I can give up to two pounds, and it's a day! Thomas said.
Xiaohong listened to the two talking, as if she felt that she had been sold again.
Only this time
It feels different
"Five pounds!"
"Three pounds!"
"Deal! Two hours at a time! Xu San picked up the wine glass and touched it with Thomas, and then took a sip of wine.
"Phew!" The wine glasses collided, and Thomas took a big sip of wine and said, "But I will hand over this money directly to Miss An Hong!" ”
"No problem, but you also need to give some guidance on An Hong's English, how about it?" Xu San said and touched the cup with Thomas again, and then took a sip.
"Okay, little problem!" Immediately, Thomas also drank the wine from the cup, put it in the cup, burped, poured the wine again, turned his head to look at Xiaohong and asked, "How is Miss Anhong's English level?" ”
"I only have 26 letters and a hundred or so words." Xiaohong said embarrassedly.
Thomas's hand picking up the mutton skewers suddenly paused, and he looked at Xu San, "Xu, Miss An Hong is not joking?" ”
"No! She's at this level! Xu San shrugged, looking like a dead pig was not afraid of boiling water.
Take a bite of the mutton and bite down hard, "You're fooling me again!" I think you should let me teach Miss Anhong English, right? ”
"That's right!" Xu San said.
"Then it's good to just say it, but why do you still charge me money?"
"Hmm~" Xu San pretended to be pondering, and then said, "I'm afraid that without this layer of money relationship, you can't teach well!" After all, money can't be spent in vain, right? ”
Thomas paused for about two seconds before he laughed, "Haha~haha, Xu you have this reason. It was so perfect! Thomas laughed heartily, not feeling annoyed at all by Xu Sankeng'er.
Xiaohong poked Xu San with her finger and asked in a low voice, "He knows that you cheated him, why does he seem to agree?" ”
"Thomas is a man of contract spirit, and although we only pay lip service, he will keep his promise!" Xu San explained with a smile.
The spirit of the contract can be understood literally, but very few people can abide by it.
Seeing Thomas laughing heartily and drinking wine heartily, Xiaohong couldn't help but feel a sense of guilt, so he asked in a low voice, "Is it really okay for you to pit him like this?" ”
"It's okay, the little train is used to the pit." Xu San also whispered.
Xiaohong nodded, and suddenly felt that this Thomas was also quite pitiful, it is estimated that he has been cheated since he met Xu San, and now he doesn't know how many times he has been pitted.
Alcohol, whatever you drink, basically becomes talkative.
The same goes for Thomas, who talks about football and Old Trafford the most, leaving aside teaching English.
Xu San is a Manchester United fan, and Thomas, as a Manchester native, is naturally also a fan of the Red Devils, and he is also a die-hard fan who has witnessed Manchester United from its creation to its rise.
At this time, football was still a workers' sport, not yet invaded by capital, and it was still very pure, so Thomas always talked about Manchester United, and his fighting spirit was always high, and it seemed that he had experienced every football game himself.
Football closes the distance between the two men, but alienates the beautiful girl.
Xiaohong can still interject a sentence when she doesn't talk about football, but as soon as the two men get involved in football, Xiaohong next to her is no longer a beauty, but air!
Sullen, she drank alone, looking at the two stupid men, he really felt that the two of them might really have some kind of unknown relationship.
