Pamper Eighties

The family came down from the Great Wall and went directly to Quanjude to eat roast duck. This roast duck restaurant is located in a two-story row building at the front door. It has blue-gray bricks and blue-gray tiles. Only the facade is colorfully decorated and looks like something.

When they came, it was just at noon. The lobby was very lively. There were people waiting to eat roast duck. Many of them were from outside the city, and they all spoke with accents.

It is a very fashionable thing to come to Beijing for tourism these days. People in those units all over the country are trying their best to come here. Quanjude Roast Duck Restaurant is also a must for them. When there are many people, they have to queue up. what.

However, the old Su family did not need to queue up here. As soon as their driver, Comrade Xiaojun, appeared, the director there rushed over to receive them and greeted them all the way into the box on the second floor, nodding their heads. He bowed his head and said very attentively, "Sir, I have taken your order today, and everything is ready in the kitchen. The roast duck is hanging on the stove, and it is heating up. Are you serving it now?"

Old man Su did not show his prestige, but said kindly: "It's hard work for you, let's put it up now, and then give Xiaojun and a few of them a table, and you can send someone to Xinyuanzhai in Dongcheng to give it to my house. A few dolls bought some sour plum soup and autumn pear paste, and went to Xiaojun to settle the bill later."

The director also knew the temperament of the old chief, and he was not willing to take advantage of others at all, so he accepted it smoothly: "Okay, I'll let someone do it."

He ran to the door and gave a few words, and soon there were a group of guys running the hall, carrying various dishes into the house, and Ling Ling always placed dozens of plates, both cold and hot dishes. There are also many special cakes, all of which are authentic Beijing flavors.

Today, all the people from the old Su family came. There were sixteen people in total and they ordered four roast ducks. The ducks were roasted very brightly. The raging anger looks particularly attractive.

The adults are better. The little dolls have climbed the Great Wall for a long time, and they are already starving. They stare at these ducks with bright eyes, and can't wait to stuff them directly into their mouths.

Mengmeng observed it very carefully, and exclaimed, "Wow, these ducks are all the same size, they seem fake."

Sitting across from her, her aunt was amused by her words, so she explained it to her: "This is the famous white stuffed duck in our Beijing city. From selecting duck to stuffing duck to barbecue, it is very particular. , Today's table is full of duck feasts, you can't eat it if you don't book in advance, Mengmeng, you have a good luck."

Mengmeng smiled happily, and said obediently, "It's all my grandma and grandpa who love me, thank you grandma and grandpa."

This time, the old couple of the Su family were also made to laugh, their hearts were as sweet as honey, and the old lady Su said kindly, "No need to thank you, it's all my grandma and grandpa, Mengmeng, eat more, we I'm just happy, oh, this doll is really painful."

During the conversation, the guy who ran the hall had already come over to slice the duck. His knife was very good. With a few strokes, he cut a whole roast duck into small pieces of thin duck meat, and finally only the duck was left. The skeletons, neatly placed on the plate, are enjoyable to watch.

Su Wan is also very familiar with eating duck. She pinched a lotus leaf cake on the plate with her hands and feet numbly, smeared it with sweet noodle sauce, added sliced ​​green onions, and sandwiched several pieces of roast duck, rolled it into a strip and handed it to Mengmeng , and also warned: "Eat slowly, drink more soup, don't choke."

Mengmeng was already starving. She only had roast duck in her eyes. She couldn't listen to her mother's words. After eating, she finished a roast duck roll in a blink of an eye, and looked at her mother eagerly: "Give me another one, I'm hungry."

The younger cousin Xiang Tao who was sitting across from her laughed, pointed at her and said, "Sister Mengmeng, your mouth is so greedy."

Mengmeng didn't know how to be polite. She took a bite of the roast duck roll, her cheeks bulging, and she said vaguely, "Beijing things are so delicious."

Her second aunt knocked on Xiang Tao's head and taught him angrily: "Eat your food, you are more greedy than your cousin, so you are too embarrassed to talk about others."

"Hahaha, which little baby is not greedy? Grandma was also greedy when she was a child, but there's nothing to eat. It's not like now, you can eat everything you want."

Mrs. Su recalled the past and tempted Mengmeng to say: "Beijing has a lot of delicious food, fried liver and belly bean juice biscuits, so many I can't say, you can eat it for a month without the same thing, Mengmeng If you stay in Beijing, grandma will buy you delicious food every day."

Mengmeng shook her head like a rattle when she heard that she wanted to stay in Beijing, "No, no, I want to go back to my hometown."

Madam Su was disappointed and relieved, she touched Mengmeng's hair and praised her, "We Mengmeng are really smart, we know what we want, this is the child of my old Su family, it's fine if you don't stay in Beijing. Son, grandma still buys you delicious food every day so that you can eat enough."

Mrs. Su is already old, her eyes are still very clear, and there are not many wrinkles on her face, and she can still vaguely see her beauty when she was young. Even sleeping is more stable than before, looking at Mengmeng is like seeing the younger sister when I was a child, I always want to be a little better to her, and a little bit better, put her on the top of my heart and it hurts.

She is not the only one, her old man is similar to her. They both have the same mind, they both want to make up for the debt they owe their daughter to their little granddaughter, and Mengmeng is their pistachio.

This little baby Mengmeng is also very sensitive. Knowing who treats her well, she smiled sweetly and said, "Grandma loves me the most. I like grandma and grandpa very much."

Old Man Su was still jealous, but when Mengmeng said he liked him, his face suddenly wrinkled with a smile, and Bei'er said kindly, "Grandpa also likes Mengmeng the most, we will finish dinner later, grandpa will bring You go shopping at the front door, and grandpa will buy everything you want to buy."

It is said that the two elders of the Su family are so partial and cute. Su Wan's two sisters-in-law should have an opinion, but they are from good backgrounds and don't care about it. Besides, the sister-in-law's family can stay in Beijing for a few days, so that they can make the elderly happy. The two of them It is also very happy to see, and it will not threaten them.

If Su Wan had promised to stay in Beijing, they probably wouldn't be like this. After all, people are all selfish.

The family talked and laughed. The meal was eaten for two hours. After the meal was over, they started to go shopping at the front door. Mengmeng was holding a bottle of Qiu pear paste in her hand and drank slowly. , this paste is a little sticky and tastes as sweet as honey.

When I got to the front door, the street was lively. The spacious street was full of people. There was an archway at the front with three big characters written on it. Mengmeng only knew the character "big" at the front.

It was her grandfather who told her that this place is called Dashilar, and the name is really awkward. Mengmeng curled her little tongue and tried awkwardly several times before she finally called it the right name, Dashilaner.

The things in this big pickle are not bad, on the contrary, they are quite good. There are all kinds of food and drink, such as candied haws, donkey rolls, old Beijing yogurt, and many dried fruit shops and cakes. Shops and steamed buns are full of strong Beijing flavors.

When the three little babies of the Feng family came here, they only felt that their eyes were not enough. If they hadn't just eaten enough and couldn't eat anymore, they would have wanted to let go of their stomachs and eat again.

The family also wandered aimlessly here. The old couple brought Mengmeng to the old shop, bought jasmine tea, and bought a lot of Beijing-style snacks, all of which were prepared for the children to eat.

This is not enough, they took Mengmeng to the silk and satin village again, made a small cheongsam for her, and went to the shop that sold cloth shoes, ordered several pairs of small shoes, and bought a lot of things for their two grandsons. This will be somewhat satisfying.

The little dolls followed the two old people around, and they didn't feel tired at all. Instead, the adults followed them around, their legs were sore, especially the two uncles of the Su family, who had four hands on their hands. They were all full of things, they didn't have the physique of Feng Yimin, they were so tired that they could only breathe.

The eldest uncle hurriedly called them to stop: "We've been shopping for so long, let's take a break first, there is Qingyuan in front, let's go in and watch the Beijing Opera, my brother-in-law and three children have not seen it, I have to take you to see and experience, come. If Beijing doesn’t watch Beijing opera, it’s a waste of time.”

The second uncle also hurriedly said: "Big brother is right, let's walk around, let's go to the Beijing Opera."

Qing Paradise is a pretty big theater, and its facade is much better decorated than Quanjude, with all kinds of colorful carvings, and the eaves are so warped that they almost fly.

The clerk who ran the hall led them up to the second floor and sat in the elegant seat in the middle. The hall guests below could see it clearly. After a while, the troupe ran to the stage to sing, babble, cute Meng couldn't understand a word, but he ate a lot of melon seeds and peanuts, filling his belly.

After the troupe finished singing, Xiang Hua was still humming along. She found that her cousin was only interested in eating, so she asked her, "Mengmeng, don't you like listening to dramas?"

Mengmeng still had melon seeds in her mouth, and said busyly, "I like it, the theater is really fun."

Xiang Hua showed off to her: "There's more fun, Ditan Park, don't you know? There are people dancing there every day. I'll show you tomorrow."

The second aunt glanced over and said solemnly: "What are you doing, you have to go to school tomorrow, don't even think about skipping classes for me. If you don't give me good grades, you will be at the bottom of the class. Look at Zhao Jiajia... …”

"Zhao Jiajia Zhao Jiajia, you say Zhao Jiajia every day, can you not mention her, she is so good, you recognize her as a daughter."

Xiang Hua was so angry that she hated her mother for always comparing Zhao Jiajia.

Su Wan didn't want the mother and daughter to make trouble because of Mengmeng, so she quickly settled down and said, "Xiang Hua, you go to school, my aunt knows Beijing very well, we will bring Mengmeng to play tomorrow, your most important task now is to study, wait. The National Day holiday is over, you have time to play, and when you bring Mengmeng to play, your mother won't tell you."

Xiang Hua sullenly agreed, looking at how gentle her aunt's speech was, she looked like her mother, a dominatrix, she stared at her when she spoke, she was really a poor child, it would be great if her aunt was her mother. .

For this kind of little awkwardness, the old couple of the Su family have always regarded them as invisible. Their second daughter-in-law is very high-spirited and has high requirements for those dolls. As grandparents, they can't stop them from letting their grandchildren make progress. Only when it goes too far will they say a few words.

Su Wan is a young girl, and she is not willing to get involved in the housework of the second sister-in-law. She is reunited with her parents when she returns to her mother's house. She only needs to be filial to her parents and respect her sister-in-law.

With this Ji Feng, their family of five finally caught Kong, and they ran out of the compound the next day to hang out. Su Wan was really familiar with this Beijing city, and she didn't need someone to lead the way. She could just rely on memory. Find Ditan Park.

Although it was Monday, there were still a lot of people in the square in the park, mostly old people, but also many young people, as well as the little dolls they brought, making it as noisy as a vegetable market.

The music here is bang dong cha cha, and the sky is loud. Many people are twisting their bodies and breaking dance. Seeing this, the Feng family knows what the strangeness in Xiang Hua's mouth is. It turns out to be break dancing. Not uncommon.

Da Wa also laughed at them and said, "Beijing people are too outdated. They are still dancing break dance. Aerobics is popular in our place, but they are not popular here."

Feng Yimin explained to the dolls: "Beijing is far from the south, and the fashion from our side has not spread so quickly. You can see that the clothes these people wear are not as fashionable as those of us southerners. It's the same reason."

"So that's how it is," the big baby finally understood, and he felt very strange when he saw someone lying motionless on the ground next to him, "What are they doing?"

Mengmeng had seen it long ago, she ran over curiously and asked, "What are you doing lying on the ground?"

Most of the people didn't even open their eyes. Only one old man opened one eye and said, "While practicing qigong, we lie on the ground to keep our qi down, don't disturb us."

Hey, practicing qigong, this word is quite new, they don't have this kind of popularity in the south, but this kind of popularity actually exists in this city of Beijing.

The eldest child thought no, they can't be left behind, and ran over to ask the old man: "Grandpa, please tell us, what exactly is qigong?"

The old man opened his other eye again and said impatiently, "Qigong is qigong, the gong that can generate qi, do you understand the supernatural powers? If you practice it, you can go to the sky and enter the earth, and you will live forever. Let me tell you. You don’t understand either, you need to understand that you should go to the stall over there, there is someone selling qigong books, ask him to go, don’t disturb my practice.”
