Chapter 6: Three Steps to Cutting the Hu
The whole courtyard assembly is in full swing.
On Wangfujing Street, Li Youxu used Xu Damao's three-step process of cutting off the beard.
I have to say that Xu Damao's set of practical research for many years is really good in this era.
Li Youxu took Qin Jingru to Xianyi Park, which is not far from Wangfujing Street, and took a turn, which opened the eyes of Qin Jingru, a girl from the countryside.
Qin Jingru's family lives in Changping, although occasionally her parents will come to the city to run errands.
But every time her parents came, they basically went back as soon as they ran errands, and they didn't seriously turn around in the capital at all.
So for Qin Jingru, everything in the capital is very new.
After visiting Xianyi Park, Li Youxu took Qin Jingru to the department store on Wangfujing Street.
As soon as she entered the building, Qin Jingru's eyes were attracted by a dazzling array of goods.
At first, she thought that Li Youxu was going to buy something, but she just followed to open her eyes.
When she heard that Li Youxu asked the salesperson to arrange an outfit for her, she was flattered, and her braided head shook like a rattle, and she refused to ask for anything.
Because she thinks that the things here are too expensive, a pair of medium-grade leather shoes costs seven yuan and six cents, and she works in the countryside to earn a share of work, and she saves about ten yuan a year.
Everything here is too precious for her.
"Brother, it's too expensive, let's go, I think it's good to go around the capital, and it doesn't cost you anything to go around."
Qin Jingru dragged Li Youxu's arm and wanted to drag people away.
After a few decades, if you don't buy something for the girl, the girl will call you stupid.
Qin Jingru is in stark contrast to a small number of girls in later generations.
I have to admit that many girls in this year are very good.
"Jingru, don't you call me brother? Since you call me brother, then listen to my brother, and we will buy it.
I work as a fitter in the Red Star Rolling Mill, and my salary is thirty-three yuan a month, which is not bad for this money. ”
Li Youxu has already decided to trap Qin Jingru.
In the future, let Qin Jingru give birth to three children and work for the Lao Li family for the rest of his life, how can he not be nicer to others?
Under Li Youxu's tough attitude, Qin Jingru had no choice but to accept the pair of leather shoes that cost seven yuan and six cents.
By the way, these shoes come with shoe polish and a shoe brush.
With shoes, Li Youxu waved his hand and spent another thirteen yuan to buy Qin Jingru a coat that was very popular this year.
Qin Jingru was stubborn at first, but he couldn't stand Li Youxu's firm attitude.
"Brother, you are too good at spending money, I can't save so much money in a year doing farm work in the countryside, and I will let you spend it in one day."
Qin Jingru verbally complained that Li Youxu spent money lavishly, but she couldn't hide the joy on her face.
"Let's go, brother will take you to eat roast duck again, haven't you eaten this thing?"
Out of the department store, Li Youxu took Qin Jingru to eat roast duck again.
This year's Quanjude is more real, and Li Youxu is still more interested.
Entering a Quanjude store, Li Youxu saw familiar faces.
Director Zhang and two police officers in the area of Nangu Luo Lane stared at a middle-aged man eating roast duck at the opposite table.
Director Zhang and the two police officers were both dressed in civilian clothes, and they behaved more casually, like ordinary diners.
But Li Youxu's current physique is already the pinnacle of what humans can achieve, his eyesight and hearing are far beyond ordinary people, and he can capture some details that ordinary people will not notice.
Li Youxu didn't know what the middle-aged man had done, and he wasn't interested, he just wanted to eat a meal of Quanjude roast duck and finish the three-step process of cutting off the beard.
When the roast duck, which had always been golden and plump, was served on the table, Qin Jingru's eyes were as wide as walnuts, she really saw roast duck for the first time.
A master was helping to slice the slices on the side, Qin Jingru didn't know how to eat it yet, so he had to be personally guided by Li Youxu: "Jingru, you have to pick up the spring rolls first, add some side dishes such as sweet noodles and sauce, green onion strips, radishes, etc., and then wrap them up and eat them." You can eat the roast duck in a hollow sesame cake, whatever you want. ”
Qin Jingru can be regarded as an eye-opener, thinking that life in this city is good, and the people in the city are exquisite, and there are so many ways to eat a roast duck.
The master finished slicing the duck meat and left with the duck skeleton, but Qin Jingru was distressed: "Brother, there is still a lot of meat on the skeleton, so they just took it away?" ”
This is not to blame Qin Jingru, Li Youxu also thought so when he ate Beijing roast duck for the first time.
"Of course not, the skeleton is just taken back to the kitchen for processing, so they can use the skeleton to cook soup, or they can fry it to make a crispy duck rack, which will not be wasted."
Li Youxu patiently answered Qin Jingru's doubts.
Qin Jingru was relieved when she heard this, there was still a lot of meat on her bones, so it was good that it hadn't been taken away.
Li Youxu saw Qin Jingru's thoughts, and said, "Jingru, I'll let them roast another duck in a while, and you can take it home for your uncle and aunt to taste." ”
"No, how expensive is this, a roast duck costs a few dollars."
Qin Jingru kept shaking her hand, saying that she wouldn't ask for anything.
This time, Li Youxu's tough attitude is not good, maybe Qin Jingru thinks that he has received too many things from Li Youxu today, so he refuses to ask for anything about this roast duck.
Li Youxu didn't force it, he said: "Okay, since you don't want it, I won't force it."
I won't eat the crispy duck rack made in the kitchen for a while, so you can pack it and take it home for your uncle and aunt to taste, right? ”
This time, Qin Jingru had no objection.
In her heart, she actually wanted to bring some good things home for her family to taste, but she was embarrassed to let Li Youxu spend another expense.
After eating and drinking, Li Youxu asked people to pack the crispy duck rack, and then let the kitchen roast a duck, ready to take it home for his younger brothers and sisters to taste.
When you are a big brother, you can't eat alone!
When the eldest brother eats delicious food outside, he must not forget the younger siblings at home.
"Jingru, I'll take you to the station, and I'll go back when you get on the train."
Li Youxu said.
"Well, I'll listen to my brother."
Qin Jingru nodded obediently, she also wanted to stay with Brother Li for a while.
She felt that Brother Li was so good to her, except for her parents, this is the only person in the world who is so good to her.
When Li Youxu and Qin Jingru came out of the Quanjude store side by side, they suddenly heard a noise behind them, and a person actually jumped out of the window and ran away.
The middle-aged man who was stared at by Director Zhang before was holding a leather bag in his hand and rushed out of the gate of Quanjude, the scene was quite chaotic, it should have been an accident.
Two or three seconds later, Director Zhang and the two police officers chased after him and shouted at Li Youxu and Qin Jingru: "Big brother, I'm from the police station, help stop the person with the bag." ”
The man with a leather bag under his arm was rushing from Li Youxu's side, and a bright knife appeared in his hand, and he roared vigorously: "Get out of the way, get out of the way for me." ”
