Chapter 263 Surprised Everyone
At first glance, the young man’s skin was slightly dark, his clothes were starched and turned white, and there were two holes. He looked like a poor country man,
However, if you look carefully, you can find details that have been missed.
The young man was dressed simply, but he was not afraid of honor or disgrace; his face was simple and honest, but his dark eyes were full of aura when he turned; especially the corners of his mouth that sometimes curled up, facing all kinds of contempt and contempt , seems to be smiling all the time, what an indifferent attitude.
This boy must not be simple.
"Is this right?" Zhu Ping'an looked at the stunned shop assistant beside him, slightly raised the corners of his lips, and asked softly.
The store clerk swallowed a mouthful of saliva and nodded hurriedly, his eyes a little dull.
"That means I can get free board and lodging for a day?" Zhu Ping'an showed a simple and honest smile, which was very sunny.
The store clerk nodded blankly.
"Thank you so much. You Beijing people are so kind. On the first day I came to Beijing, you showed me your generosity."
"Then I'm not polite. Give me five or six of your signature dishes, which are delicious and expensive."
"Oh, by the way, please give me some more Take the horse to the backyard and don't lose anything on the horse. That's all my wealth, if you can. , help me move my things to the room you reserved, um, pick a good, spacious room that faces the sun.”
“Haha, trouble”
After speaking, Zhu Pingan found a table. Sat down.
At this time, the store clerk understood why Zhu Pingan said "it has to be untied anyway" when he tied the horse to the flagpole. That’s what it means now.
Looking at the simple young man sitting on the table, the shop assistant blushed so hard that he felt hot.
When Zhu Pingan performed the second couplet, everyone in the lobby looked at Zhu Pingan in a completely different way than at the beginning. However, when Zhu Pingan showed no restraint at all, he opened the door to his shop. After ordering five or six of Gui's signature dishes and asking the waiter to move the things to the good room, everyone's eyes on Zhu Pingan changed again.
Why do I feel so worthless?
As if he has never seen the world.
What a pity.
Everyone looked at Zhu Pingan with a hint of disdain. They came to this inn to express the couplet, not because of the free food and lodging that others said, but because of the couplet. . I didn't even think about free room and board at all. Even those who meet the couplets are not like Zhu Ping'an who picks out expensive dishes and chooses a room to stay in. The most they can do is order a pot of fragrant tea and taste tea, and everything is played out, including the dishes and the room. , don't lower my taste.
The style of a gentleman is like a person who values profits!
Zhu Ping'an didn't care about everyone's eyes. Before the food was served, he picked up the teapot on the table, poured a cup of tea into the cup, and sipped it slightly.
Huh? He is tasting tea!
Maybe we misjudged him. Also, at the beginning, the waiter in the shop looked down upon him so much that he ordered a few expensive dishes. Living in a good room is also a small punishment for the shopkeeper. Order food and accommodation. The drunkard's intention is not in the bar.
Everyone's views on Zhu Pingan have undergone subtle changes. Many people took steps to make friends with Zhu Pingan.
At this moment, I heard a cooing sound.
Then everyone was surprised to see that after the young man took a sip of tea, he drank it all in one go, like a cow drinking. After drinking a glass, the young man poured another glass, and then drank it all again like a cow.
Well, it turns out that I was not tasting tea just now, but I was trying to see if the tea was hot! !
I have never seen the world! What a pity, what a pity!
Everyone couldn't help but shook their heads and sighed. Those who were taking steps to make friends with Zhu Pingan also stopped one after another!
"Hahaha, this young man is so free and easy." The well-dressed young man turned his head and said softly to the young man named Vincent next to him, smiling.
"It looks a bit like you." The young man named Vincent smiled faintly.
While everyone in the lobby was whispering or looking at Zhu Ping'an sideways, Zhu Ping'an's order had already been served. The speed of serving food in this inn was really worthy of its unusually prosperous decoration and specifications.
A plate of roast duck and a small bowl of sweet sauce and accompanying vegetables, a stack of fried tripe, a fried liver, a cup of bird's nest, a plate of red braised abalone, and an off-season vegetable stir-fried greens, which looks delicious and delicious. Make your mouth salivate.
Perhaps the most expensive dish here is the humble stir-fried green vegetables. It is not easy to get vegetables in this season. During the Ming Dynasty, unlike our modern times, you can eat vegetables all year round. They grew vegetables. The technology is not as good as ours, so a plate of vegetables like this is extremely precious.
Zhu Ping'an has not eaten for a whole day from morning to now. When he saw such a rich table of delicious food, his eyes lit up.
So, as soon as the food was served, Zhu Pingan took a pair of chopsticks and started to eat happily.
It is really insulting to be polite
The lobby was originally waiting for Zhu Pingan to continue the couplet. Although his senses were not very good for Zhu Pingan, he was still positive about Zhu Pingan's level. But when he saw Zhu Pingan, he started to eat happily.
It turns out that he only knows how to deal with those two couplets.
Seeing Zhu Ping'an's dishonoring and elegant eating posture, which was reduced by a plate in the blink of an eye, everyone couldn't help but shook their heads.
My appetite is really good!
Not long after, everyone saw that Zhu Pingan had eaten almost all the food on the table. This young man looked neither tall nor fat, and he had a really big appetite!
After Zhu Pingan was full, he drank another cup of tea, burped with satisfaction, took out a similarly starched white handkerchief from his pocket, and wiped his mouth.
“This food tastes so good, I really can’t bear to leave.”
Then everyone saw a scene they would never forget. The young man who had eaten and drank enough sighed with emotion. , then he looked up at the couplets, flattened his mouth, and took a bite of the remaining four couplets. Everything came out right:
"Lonely and cold, I am a widow with an empty window; I am far and near, and I am happy and free."
"There is a temple in every inch of land, and a poem is written beside the temple. The poem says: The bright moon sends the monks back to the ancient temple. There are two trees in the forest, and there is a ban under the forest. The ban says: "A pound of ax will enter the forest at the right time."
"The sound of the wind, the sound of water, the sound of insects, the sound of birds, and the sound of chanting, combined for three hundred and sixty days, the sound of bells, is silent and silent; the color of the moon, the color of the mountains, the color of the grass, the color of the trees, the color of clouds, and the color of the 48,000-foot-high peaks and mountains, all colors are empty! "
"If there are insects in the water, it will be turbid; if there are fish in the water, there will be fishing; water, water, water, rivers and lakes; the sun will appear because of the industry, the sun will be bright because of the moon, day by day , the sun, the moon and the stars are crystal clear.”
After finishing the couplet, Zhu Ping’an nodded, flattened his mouth and said to himself: “This should allow us to stay a few more days.”< br>
After finishing speaking, he casually glanced at the astonished people in the lobby, raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and the bright smile flashed away.
If you don’t eat so much, how can you have time to think about it?
These people really think they can do it all in one go, haha. (End of this chapter)
