Since they came to the capital, the three people haven't had dinner alone.
The two girls walked in front, talking and laughing, and Wu Tao followed with ease. While walking, while enjoying the beauty.
Without Wu Tao in the middle, an Rong and Zhao Li talked very well.
After all, she is a classmate who has been together in junior high school. For Zhao Li, an Rong is obviously not as vigilant and alert as other girls around Wu Tao.
Wu Tao finally came to an old capital Shabu mutton hotpot restaurant in Wudaokou.
The store looks ordinary and antique, and the hot pot inside is also a traditional copper hot pot. The guy was steaming and looked very appetizing.
"I miss the string of incense in Beijiang, so I'll have hot pot tonight!" An Rong gave such a reason.
Zhao Li cheerfully agreed, but Wu Tao didn't have anything to do with it.
When the three entered the store, they found that except for the two big round tables, the others were empty. Not very popular!
However, even so, the boss behind the counter didn't take the initiative to welcome out, but said in a pure Beijing accent, "please come inside, how many?"
"Boss, three!" An Rong answered in a loud voice and followed him to a table for four by the window.
A table and two benches, all painted with tung oil, are simple and simple.
An Rong and Zhao Li sat on a bench and let Wu Tao sit alone. Soon the boss, who was washing the white apron, came up with a small book and said, "what do you want, three little friends?"
Wu Tao stretched out his hand. "Boss, show us the menu."
The boss looked back and pointed to the old menu on the wall and said, "it's all there. Just look."
This is obviously the attitude of sending off outsiders.
Instead, an Rong looked back at Wu taofei and said to the boss, "no, boss, I said you remember."
While an Rong ordered the order, Wu Tao looked around bored.
The only two tables in the store seem to be a group. It seems that the clothes are very ordinary, even a little down-to-earth.
A table of more than ten people surrounded by a big hot pot. There were no meat dishes, and the beer was the cheapest one without a label.
But this did not prevent a circle of people from shouting, crying and laughing.
Maybe it drifted north.
Wu Tao knows that there are such a group of people, living in the basement, doing small odd jobs, exposed to the wind and sun, precarious, just like duckweed floating in the capital.
But they are people with ideals and persistence, so that one day they can mix up a personal style and return home in glory.
Wu Tao has nothing to say about this group.
So although I think the two tables are a little nervous, they don't show any special emotions.
Soon, the huge copper pot was brought up. The boss skillfully added charcoal and added water. As soon as he fiddled around, the heat came out soon.
"Boss, tunnel!" Wu Tao's praise made the boss smile, and he stopped treating him as an outsider.
Taking advantage of the boss's gap in hot pot ingredients, Wu Tao asked by the way, "boss, who are those people? It's scary to cry and laugh. "
The boss said in a familiar tone, "who else can it be? I've been drifting North for a few years and I've accomplished nothing. I'm going back to my hometown! They are not like you. They are all from famous universities. They can get a golden job as soon as they graduate. "
Zhao Li said, "Hey, boss, can you see that we are famous universities?" When saying this, Zhao Li deliberately bit the words "famous university" very hard.
Because in her opinion, her own Central Academy of fine arts is not a famous brand.
Otherwise, Qiu Xiaotian won't go back to Beijiang middle school to be an art teacher.
The middle-aged boss turned his eyes horizontally, "why can't you see it? I open this shop here. I see more famous college students all day. I've seen a lot. I can see which school I went to. "
"True or false!" Zhao Li immediately smiled and pointed to her three humanitarians: "guess?"
The middle-aged boss may be really good at it, so even if he saw Zhao Li's mind in the exam, he still didn't lose: "the little girl came out of Tsinghua garden, but she hasn't seen such a beautiful porcelain man in Tsinghua garden for many years."
An Rong smiled kindly, which was regarded as his consent.
The boss immediately looked at Wu Tao, "look at this little brother. He should also be from Tsinghua park."
"Why do you say that?" Zhao Li asked.
The boss pondered: "to be honest, this little brother doesn't look like a student, but like a big boss. But it is possible to harvest the girl's heart, at least from Tsinghua garden. "
Zhao Li threw her mouth away. "Boss, you don't see it. It's obviously reasoning."
Seeing that Wu Tao didn't deny it, the boss was more confident, "no matter what, am I right?"
"Then guess me!" Zhao Li straightened her chest unconvinced.
The two bosses narrowed their eyes and showed a thoughtful look. They immediately clapped their hands and said, "you're afraid it's the one in the east? From the Central Academy of fine arts? "
Hey, that's amazing.
So far, in Zhao Li's convinced eyes, the boss said hello and left with pride.
Zhao Li said with a puzzled expression, "how did he see it?"
Wu Tao took a piece of lamb, rinsed it in the hot pot and said, "look at your fingers. People with clear eyes will know at a glance."
Zhao Li didn't even care about the hot pot. She touched her calloused, particularly prominent middle and index fingers of her right hand and said, "I don't want it to be so ugly, but the workload every day is there. If you don't create one day, readers all over the country won't agree!"
Wu Tao said while eating: "so it is a kind of transformation to let you represent Baoku manke as the Deputy creative director of Tianxing game company. If you do well, you can slowly put down your pen and relax in the future. "
"I forgot if you didn't mention it. This time I came to you because of this!" Zhao Li was particularly excited and said: "recently, the game company urged me to be creative. My side is also a blank. After thinking a lot, I think it is not feasible. I really can't start and hand in my homework..."
Wu Tao ate the authentic instant boiled mutton with relish and said, "it's too simple. Is it such a worry?"
Just then, the people at the previous two tables suddenly cried.
Wu Tao was about to give Zhao Li some inspiration, but he was interrupted.
Why do a group of adults cry like this in broad daylight?
But looking at the bottle on the table, Wu Tao was relieved. After drinking in place, the mood at the bottom of my heart began to vent.
Some people cry with their faces covered, some cry on the table, some cry with their necks around others, and some wipe their tears quietly without saying a word.
Poor, too.
Wu Tao was about to take back his eyes. Suddenly, he was confused in his mind. Eh, the guy who didn't say a word and wiped his tears looked like an alien. Why did he look so familiar?
At the next moment, Wu Tao patted his thigh, fate!
