Chapter 597: A Cup of Grievances
The restaurant was noisy, and the big round table was full of eight cool men with three big and five thick voices, and there was a middle-aged man with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks who were noisy and shouting on the side, so that the nearby tables looked at their fierce appearance, and they didn't dare to ask and drink at will.
At the counter in the middle, the shopkeeper wearing a cockscomb hat looked at the table in embarrassment, after all, they were all customers, and the store was not like a temple, so there was no rule that others were not allowed to speak loudly, so they had to apologize to the affected tables on behalf of their fists, and they could always show that they had done their best.
Putting down his hand, on the side of the afterglow, the aisle leading to the back kitchen, the scholar and the old man who had gone in before walked out, and were about to go up and beg the other party to restrain the eight big men, when they saw their own chef also following behind, talking to the old man and the young man in front.
“...... I came back a few days ago, thinking that I could go to the temple to have a meal, but there was no one, so I wouldn't shrink to the bottom with that old Jiao to eat fish, right?"
"Then why did you become a cook in this restaurant?"
The figure walked out of the aisle, and Lu Liangsheng, who was side by side with the old man, was a little curious about how a pig demon ran to the stove room of a human restaurant to cook food for people.
"Hmph, it's just gluttonous. ”
The toad Taoist flicked the fumes on the sleeve of his robe, and interjected a sentence on the answer, and the pig who followed behind him was so unimpressed that he plucked his nostrils and laughed.
"I didn't find your whereabouts, my old pig is hungry again, and he always has to eat, but he has no money on him, so he just works for this restaurant. ”
The old pig's voice was as low as the ringing of an urn, and the eight people around the big round table raised their faces when they heard the voice, and when they saw the pig Gangguan, they showed a look of surprise, and they came over with a wine glass, shouting, "Reunion with a thousand cups!"
The pig just did not refuse, took the eight bowls of wine handed over and poured them into his mouth one by one, wet the collar with the corner of his lips, and boldly lit up the bottom of the bowl around after drinking, which attracted the guests at other tables to clapp.
"Okay!" "This is a good man, he does eight bowls in one go." ”
"Look at the belly, let alone drink a few jars!"
In the applause, Lu Liangsheng smiled and asked the eight people to stop drinking for the time being, and invited Zhu Gangguan to eat at the same table, the latter nodded, handed the empty bowl back to Lu Qing, and when everyone left, the tall and thin middle-aged man sitting at the big round table was turned sideways, and the old pig wiping his mouth was looking at each other.
Lu Liangsheng returned to his seat and poured wine for his master, but when he looked up, he saw that Zhu Gangguan was still standing in place, "Old pig?"
"It's okay....." Zhu Gangguan turned his gaze, and hurriedly waved his hand, pointing to the scholar's table, "The dishes are a little less, not enough for my old pig to eat, I'll go in and make some more!"
wiped his palms on the apron, turned around and went back to the back kitchen, Lu Liangsheng frowned, looked at the monkey with a disdainful face, thinking that the two of them might have some grudges or something, put down the chopsticks and got up to go to the back kitchen, was pulled by Sun Wukong, and sat down.
"Don't go, that nerd won't run. ”
The monkey grabbed a few fried beans and threw them into his mouth, poured a glass of wine, and shook his head: "It's still far from the jade syrup and qiong liquid in the fairy palace, and it's not as good as the monkey wine in Huaguo Mountain when my grandson was in the past, and the prosperity of the world is like this?"
Lu Liangsheng sandwiched a chicken leg roasted in white sauce and threw it into his bowl: "Shut your mouth, this is not the best restaurant, not to mention the prosperity of the world, and it is not just about eating." ”
"I know, I know, I'll take my grandson around later!"
After getting used to it for a while, the monkey sitting on the side no longer picked, and ate the chicken leg with Lu Liangsheng's clip with relish, and from time to time held the bowl one by one with Lu Pan's eight people who came over with wine, and drank happily.
The clouds are dusky in the west, the lanterns outside the door of the restaurant are lit, rising to the eaves, and the hall on the first floor of the first floor of many guests has gone away, it is still noisy and noisy, and the large round table with more than ten people is staggered, and the toad Taoist pulls the monkey to sit together and draw fists, winning a few at the beginning, and then losing one after another, so that the toad has a few bowls of wine poured down, and sits crookedly on the stool.
During this period, the pig gang also came out a few times, brought the newly made dishes and put them on the table, from morning to night, it was stacked three layers, and there were few two jars of wine at each person's feet.
The shopkeeper on the other side of the counter was flushed, counting the dishes excitedly, and kept counting how much money was in the account book.......
The dignified national teacher, if you can't pay after eating, it will be embarrassing, fortunately Yan Chixia and Zuo Zhengyi didn't come, otherwise I'm afraid I would have to eat early tomorrow morning.
After another half an hour, a group of people were full of wine and food, the monkey was not happy, and ran to the street by himself, Lu Liang was afraid that he would cause trouble, so he didn't count the silver in the money bag, poured a handful and put it on the counter, and hurriedly chased it out.
The eight big men and toad Taoists in Lujia Village staggered shoulder to shoulder and walked together, and Zhu Gang didn't drink much, so he turned around and shouted at the shopkeeper who weighed the silver two when he left the restaurant.
"I'm going to accompany my friends, I'm going to work tomorrow, don't change people!"
The shopkeeper couldn't wait, pinching the account book and chasing to the door: "Chef Zhu, I'll call your friends tomorrow!!"
The lights of the long street are like stars intertwined above the street, the noise is still like the day of the city, the crowds of people come and go, the sound of selling is endless, the women who accompany them choose the best cloth and rouge, whisper and chuckle, the vendors who close the stalls thank the customers who pay the money, and the smiling and groaning take their waists, and the Hu merchants who speak the Western dialect on the side of the road argue with others over the price and push each other.
The drunken monkey swayed over and looked at it, staggered a few feet, blew lightly, took off the fur hat on Hu Shang's head out of thin air, flew it into his hand, and put it on his head.
"It's fun, it's fun..... Hahaha......"
Soon, I heard the sound of Hu and the light strings of the pipa, and followed the vocal music upside down into the attic next to it.
...... This monkey.
Lu Liangsheng hurriedly followed up, thinking that it would cause some trouble, but he saw that Sun Wukong had sat down on the fence seat on the second floor, holding his chin and looking at the middle of the second floor hanging in the air.
Lu Liangsheng sent his man away and sat down on the side of the monkey.
"The Great Sage also likes to watch these songs and dances in the Western Regions?"
"I haven't seen it, it's a novelty. The shopkeeper came to pick the washed grapes, and the monkeys stuffed them into their mouths one by one, and after a while, Lu Pan and the others also came over, went up to the second floor to find other seats and sat down, looking at the orchids below, and whistling excitedly one by one.
Just as Lu Liangsheng was talking to the monkey, the latter looked back at Lu Pan's table and the fat pig Gangguan, and suddenly got up with two glasses of wine and walked over.
"Idiot, I'm an old pig and I'll have a drink with you. ”
Zhu Gangguan looked at the wine glass handed in front of him and was stunned for a moment, then took it and looked at the expressionless monkey, who sat down on the other side, looked at the surrounding bustle, and laughed:
"Past grudges, a cup of hook!"
"Hehe, you plagued ......" Zhu Gangguan looked at the monkey with a wine glass, and then looked at Lu Liangsheng's back over there, and reluctantly touched the other party, "One cup is not enough, at least ten glasses!"
The two demons looked at each other, and for a moment, they laughed together.
Lu Liangsheng looked back at the two demons over there, turned his gaze back with a smile, and looked down boringly at the singing and dancing below, in the corner of the second floor, Honglian and Qiyu were hidden in the shadows, watching the scholar lie on the fence and watch the singing and dancing of the Western Regions, and snorted in unison.
"What's so good about orchids!"
Hong Lian's eyes lit up, and she snapped her fingers, turned around and floated into the curtain, through the walls and stairs, and disappeared in an instant.
.......
After the stage, in the curtain separated from each other, an orchid sat in front of the bronze mirror to apply rouge to cover the coarse pores.
The body was then on the ground, dragged and hidden.
