Chapter 45 Gu Ying’s fiancé [Ask for monthly ticket]
“Ruotong, a man named Cai Qi applied to join our archaeological team, saying he is your classmate...”
Archaeological team At the station, Zhou Ruotong was considering whether to go to a B&B for dinner. Archaeological team leader Pang Donghai suddenly walked over with a handwritten application form in his hand.
Normally speaking, the archaeological team generally does not expand except for the core personnel. When large tombs require manpower, just recruit people directly from major museums.
But this person’s application was sincere, and he was Zhou Ruotong’s classmate, so I came over to ask.
If you want to have a good relationship, then be accommodating, it's just a matter of words.
Zhou Ruotong frowned slightly:
"He is indeed my classmate, but I am not familiar with him. Uncle Pang, just handle it normally and don't ask for my opinion."
When Pang Donghai heard this, he immediately understood what to do:
"Okay, then I will reject him. Although our archaeological team is a little busier now, it is not so busy that we need to increase our manpower... We will go in the evening Let’s eat at my house, your aunt is going to make ma tofu at home.”
Ma tofu is a traditional delicacy in Beijing. To put it simply, it is fried bean dregs with oil, preferably mutton oil. It tastes fragrant and moist, and is the favorite of many old Beijing people.
If Zhou Ruotong wanted to put things aside, he would agree without even thinking about it.
But today she hesitated for a moment and said to Pang Donghai with an apologetic look:
"I have an appointment with my friends for dinner tonight. Let's go home to see my aunt tomorrow."
"Okay, then I'll tell Aunt You that we'll eat Ma Tofu tomorrow night."
After Pang Donghai left, Zhou Ruotong picked up his mobile phone and sent a message to Li Yu:
"The chestnut hot drink you made last time, can you make some more for dinner? The toys I bought for Brother Dao have arrived. I will deliver them after get off work. Go over."
Li Yu replied quickly:
"Okay, no problem, I will add some walnuts in it today, it should taste better."
Look. Upon hearing this news, Miss Zhou slightly pursed her lips.
Zhou Ruotong, Zhou Ruotong, you actually started lying just to get a drink... She clicked on the Meituan APP, chose a popular pet store, and started choosing pet toys.
At five o'clock in the afternoon, the archaeological team officially got off work.
Zhou Ruotong packed up his personal belongings, carried his bag to the gate, and received the pet toys from the errand boy in the guard room.
Put the toys in the trunk of the guard, start the car, and go straight to Fengming Valley Scenic Area.
When we arrived at the gate of the B&B, as soon as we parked the car, Brother Dao rushed over with his tail wagging, his eyes full of flattery.
"Ah, you are so enthusiastic today. Did you know that I bought you toys?"
Zhou Ruotong opened the trunk, took out the newly bought toys, and started playing with Brother Dao on the grass outside the door.
In the kitchen, Li Yu was peeling chestnuts.
On the stove next to it, the ribs were simmering. Beans and potatoes were added to it. The more it simmered, the stronger the aroma became.
Add some vermicelli later, stick a few corn tortillas on it, and a delicious Northeastern iron pot stew is ready.
Ever since he learned that Sun Facai had gone to the world of the Three Kingdoms, Li Yu felt relaxed for no reason.
Not only is the pending scenic spot about to get back on track, the most important thing is that Fa Xiao has found his whereabouts and no longer has to worry about it every day.
“If Sun Facai and Lu Bu join forces, there will be even more things that can be done.”
Defined by the times, even if many things are transported to the Three Kingdoms, Lu Bu and the others are helpless, such as Large power generation equipment, as well as agricultural production machinery.
With Sun Facai, these operations are no problem.
Some coal mines could even be mined to a limited extent, changing the main fuel of the Han Dynasty from charcoal to coal.
If coal can be promoted widely, it will not only save a lot of wood and effectively prevent soil erosion, but maybe Sun Facai can also invent a cement factory.
Imagine that Sun Facai’s parents made their fortune in the cement factory. If he could do it in the Three Kingdoms, he would be regarded as inheriting his father’s business.
Put the peeled chestnuts into a food processor, then add a handful of walnut kernels, pour in pure milk and sugar, beat evenly and then filter, then heat it in a milk pot, and you will have a cup of chestnuts with a full milky flavor. The hot drink is ready.
Bringing it out from the kitchen, I happened to meet Zhou Ruotong who had finished playing with Brother Dao.
"It's just in time, try it with walnuts."
"It smells delicious, thank you."
Zhou Ruotong was not polite, sat down, picked up the hot drink, and gently She took a sip:
“It tastes good, a little more greasy than last time, and it’s really comfortable to drink it warm.”
When she first came in, she saw the changes in the B&B. He even predicted the investment intensity and felt that all the money from selling jade pendants was invested. With this kind of investment method, it’s no wonder that millions of loans can be spent.
Li Yu went to the kitchen and put the vermicelli into the pot, then put the prepared cornmeal cake on the edge of the pot, checked the time, and continued to stew.
He returned to the restaurant and remembered that in addition to "Water Margin" and "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", the novels that Brother Dao threw on the ground last time were also a relatively unfamiliar "Xing Tang Biography".
These books were all packaged and bought from book websites without careful study at the time.
While Zhou Ruotong is here, Li Yu plans to ask about the relationship between "The Legend of the Rising Tang Dynasty" and the heroes of the Sui and Tang Dynasties. If one of the characters in the book comes to the B&B one day, he can entertain them in a targeted manner.
"Ruotong, are you familiar with the history of the Sui and Tang Dynasties?"
This question stunned Zhou Ruotong, and then said:
"You are fairly familiar with it, my dad is an expert in the history of the Tang Dynasty. Now he works in the Department of History and the History Museum of Peking University."
You're asking the right person... Li Yu asked while the iron was hot:
"I see there are several novels in the Sui and Tang Heroes series, what are they? What’s the difference?”
If you ask about novels, it’s just novels. Why mention the history of the Sui and Tang Dynasties first... Zhou Ruotong almost choked, but still said:
"The Sui and Tang series of novels are roughly divided into "The Romance of the Sui and Tang Dynasties", "The Complete Biography of the Tang Dynasty", "Xing Tang" There are three categories of "Tang Biography". Romance of the Sui and Tang Dynasties is a historical type, which mainly uses the development of the Sui and Tang Dynasties as the story structure. The last two are heroic novels, which are familiar to the common people, such as Qin Qiong selling horses and Wagangzhai gathering for justice. , both come from the last two books..."
She took a sip of the hot drink from the cup, and then said:
"There are a lot of magical plots in "Shuo Tang", and every hero has it. In his previous life, the value of force was extremely exaggerated. Li Yuanba could even massacre more than a million people in one night. Later, the writer felt that it was unrealistic, so he removed the plot of gods and demons, changed the character settings, and added some contemporaneous stories. The characters in the story have been reorganized into "The Legend of Xing Tang""
At this point, Zhou Ruotong gave his own opinion:
"These books are very average in terms of literature and artistry. If you want to study the history of the Sui and Tang Dynasties, you can buy some professional history books, such as "Sui Book", "Old Book of Tang", "New Book of Tang", and "Zizhi Tongjian" Books like this are much better than studying fictional novels. "
I understand the truth, but who made Brother Dao choose these novels... Li Yu sighed in his heart and planned to start at night. When watching "The Legend of the Rising Tang Dynasty", read it once to understand the plot.
When you meet the characters in the book this way, you won’t be blinded.
Not long after, the food in the pot was completely stewed.
Li Yu first put the pancakes into a basket, then poured the vegetables from the pot into a basin, then two bowls of rice, and ate with Zhou Ruotong in the restaurant.
"This pork rib is so delicious when stewed!"
Zhou Ruotong chewed a piece of crispy ribs and felt that Li Yu was really good at cooking this type of dish.
While eating, she sent the photo of the food she had just taken to Sister Fu Gu Ying:
"When you return to China, I will take you to this B&B to try it."
As soon as I sent it, Gu Ying replied with a picture, which was actually a selfie of eating stew in an iron pot.
"Haha, you didn't expect that, right? I was eating iron pot stew in a Northeastern restaurant in London. It feels so beautiful to eat Chinese food in a foreign country!"
Zhou Ruotong posted a question:
"You Aren’t you going to dive until the end of the month? Why did you go to London?”
“My family came to receive a medal and attended a series of royal banquets. The more I eat here, the more I miss Chinese food. I have no plans today. I quickly found a Northeastern restaurant to satisfy my craving.”
Gu Ying’s fiancé is a mysterious man who stays in the West all year round. He has connections with churches, gangs, politicians, tycoons, etc. in Western countries, and often attends some events. High-society gatherings are very energetic.
Zhou Ruotong met Zhou Ruotong once when he traveled to Italy last year. At that time, he was having afternoon tea with a cardinal in the Vatican. Gu Ying felt bored and took Zhou Ruotong to visit Rome.
"Tongtong, I will return to China by the end of the month at the latest. Is there anything you need me to bring?"
Gu Ying recommended a series of new bags, clothes, watches and other luxury goods, and also Listed what I purchased recently.
Zhou Ruotong was not very interested in these. She thought for a while and replied:
"Bring me some toys or accessories suitable for dogs, and I will give them to Brother Dao."
"Brother Dao? It's the big golden retriever you showed me, right? That dog is really good. I was still talking about it a while ago, saying that I was waiting for a dog, but I didn't get it. Is that big golden retriever for sale?" br>
Sell?
Zhou Ruotong glanced at Brother Dao who was lying on the side chewing a leg of lamb, and replied with a smile:
"It eats better than its owner, so don't even think about buying it, no matter how much you pay. No one will sell it if you don’t have money.”
“In this case, I won’t worry about it, so as not to be embarrassed like the last time I bought a cat.”
After finishing the chat, Zhou Ruotong hurriedly finished the meal in the bowl, played games with Brother Dao for a while, and then said goodbye before it was completely dark.
Soon, Friday came, Ge Huihui took the high-speed train and came to Yinzhou...
