Rebirth of the Flying Era

Chapter 436 Lao Mo and the Near East

Du Fei got on his car and left the courtyard, with Liu Guangfu's figure just now appearing in his mind.

He was limping, and despite his young age, he was inexplicably a little more vicissitudes of life.

As he thought about it, Du Fei couldn't help but feel a little lucky that he hadn't traveled through time to Liu Haizhong's house.

Otherwise, you have to prepare two packs of rat medicine~

As Du Fei thought about it, he couldn't help but speed up the bicycle pedaling.

Just after twelve o'clock at noon, we arrived outside the door of the government compound where Zhu Ting's home was located.

Du Fei raised his hand and looked at his watch.

The time he and Zhu Ting agreed on was at 12:30, and they would meet here.

There are still more than ten minutes.

Du Fei was just about to find a place to wait for a while when he saw a tall figure walking out from under the street tree in the courtyard.

Zhu Ting's dress today was so different from how she usually dressed at work that Du Fei almost didn't recognize her at first glance.

The first thing is her hairstyle. She doesn't have a ponytail or braids. Instead, she has a big bun on the top of her head just like Qin Huairu.

Qin Huairu went to the street office to see Du Fei for the second time, and she was quite glamorous.

And this time, Zhu Ting specially got the same hairstyle, which was not without the meaning of competing for beauty.

She was wearing a light brown woolen coat with lotus leaf collar, which was quite trendy and beautiful in this era.

On her feet she wore a pair of black high heels that reached her ankles.

Since her last trip to Quanjude, Zhu Ting has rarely worn high heels, and today is an exception.

Because it was Sunday, there were many people coming in and out of the courtyard.

And Zhu Ting, no matter in terms of status, background or academic appearance, can be regarded as a 'princess' level figure in the courtyard.

Naturally, it attracted a lot of people's attention.

However, this kind of attention was just a glance or two, and no one stopped because of it.

Du Fei pushed the car up to meet her and said with a smile: "Sister Ting, you are so beautiful today!"

Zhu Ting blushed, she rarely heard such a straightforward compliment.

Du Fei didn't stretch his hips today. He was already energetic. He was wearing a light blue tunic suit and standing next to Zhu Ting. He looked like a golden boy.

The only thing that seems a bit out of place is Du Fei's broken bicycle.

Based on the principle of ‘as long as I am not embarrassed, others will be embarrassed’.

Du Fei got on Zhu Ting and rode this broken bicycle with the momentum of an open-top Ferrari.

At this time, at Zhu Ting's house.

Zhu’s father and mother have already finished their lunch.

Dad Zhu habitually did not leave the table. He picked up the newspaper on the side and read it, while asking: "Xiaoting is gone?"

Zhu Ma just came back from outside.

Their small building is located at the back of the compound.

When Zhu Ting went out just now, Zhu's mother kept watching her go away and didn't come back until she was out of sight.

Hearing Dad Zhu's question, Mom Zhu said "hmm", sat across from her, and sighed: "You said this girl..."

Dad Zhu took off his glasses, raised his head and said, "Don't worry, how old is Xiaoting? If you were as old as her, our boss would be gone."

Zhu's mother rolled her eyes and said angrily: "How can it be the same? You old thing, is Xiaoting your biological daughter?"

Dad Zhu laughed and said: "Okay~Okay~It's nothing different. Xiaoting is already an adult. We should trust her judgment and choice."

Zhu Ma curled her lips and said, "That silly girl has a bad judgment."

Dad Zhu thought for a while and said, "In the evening, that boy will send Xiaoting back~ Let him come in and let me take a look."

Zhu’s mother hesitated and said, “There won’t be a meeting tonight?”

Dad Zhu rubbed his temples and said, "Don't drive. It's just the same thing. The old man went south. What can these people in Beijing do?"

Zhu Ma reminded: "You can't take it lightly, those people are so courageous! Sister Wang and Xiaoting almost got into trouble last time."

Dad Zhu nodded lightly: "It's okay. It was decided yesterday that Lao Xiao was transferred to Jinan."

Zhu's mother's eyes widened and she said in surprise: "The soldiers here can be handed over as soon as they say so!"

Dad Zhu glanced at it and said, "What else? If we take a step back, the world will be brighter, and we won't lose at all."

Zhu's mother reacted: "If Lao Xiao goes to Shandong, can he be promoted to the first level?"

Dad Zhu nodded.

Zhu's mother breathed a sigh of relief and tacitly agreed not to ask any more questions. "Speaking of which, Lao Xiao's daughter went to Guangdong with Chu Ming a while ago, and she still listened to the idea given by Du Fei. I don't know what happened. What kind of ecstasy soup will the brat make? Xiaoting is fooled around by him, and even Chu Ming and the others would rather believe him."

Dad Zhu was also a little surprised: "Oh? There is also this matter~ Then I will have a good meeting with him today."

On the other side, Du Fei carried Zhu Ting and sneezed for no reason.

Zhu Ting sat sideways at the back, holding Du Fei's waist with both hands.

At first, she held him gently as a token of support, but after a while, she left Fuxing Road and turned to walk north.

The jolts forced Zhu Ting to hold on to Du Fei, but later she simply hugged him.

Du Fei rubbed his nose. Logically speaking, with his current physical condition, he shouldn't catch a cold!

Fortunately, I only sneezed and had no other symptoms.

Soon the two arrived at the exhibition hall.

Bypassing the huge square, the Moscow Restaurant is on the west side of the exhibition hall.

After finding a place to park the car, the two of them walked into the exhibition hall.

Zhu Ting's high heels stepped on the marble steps, making a crisp sound of "gadagada".

Walking inside, Zhu Ting was familiar with the road. While introducing Du Fei, she naturally took Du Fei's arm.

Du Fei could clearly feel that Zhu Ting was a little stiff at the first moment.

Of course Du Fei accepted it happily and patted the back of Zhu Ting's arm, which only earned him a blank stare.

Walking further inside, you reach the door of the Moscow Restaurant. After passing through the wooden revolving door, the inside is unusually spacious.

It is decorated in a Russian style with very large ceilings. It feels a bit empty as soon as you enter.

Below is a very neatly arranged table.

At first, the main customers here were Big Brother's diplomats and China aid experts.

But since Expert Sulian withdrew, fewer and fewer blond foreigners have come here.

Most of them are the children of cadres from well-off families.

Since it was Sunday, there were probably more people than usual, but it wasn't too busy inside.

Firstly, because the restaurant is large enough, and secondly, not many people in this era can afford to eat ‘Old Mo’.

Zhu Ting came in and took Du Fei to find a seat to sit down.

A waiter came immediately.

Although the original waiters Su Lian have been removed, Lao Mo's service level has not been reduced because he often receives state guests, and there will be no such aggressive plot of "beating customers without reason".

Du Fei didn't know much about Russian food, and he didn't pretend to understand in front of Zhu Ting, so he simply left everything to Zhu Ting.

Zhu Ting was not polite. She ordered the dishes very familiarly, returned the menu to the waiter, and asked Du Fei with a smile: "Do you like Western food?"

Du Fei heard that Zhu Ting was not simply asking him about Western food, but that she had an implicit opinion on foreign countries.

In this era, Chinese people have complicated and stereotyped impressions of foreign countries.

There is both the rejection and hatred brought about by a century of humiliation in modern times, and there is also the lingering nostalgia and regret for the big brother in the north.

Du Fei thought for a while and said with a smile: "Speaking of Western food, Russian food is not strictly speaking Western food."

Zhu Ting is slightly different.

But at this moment, a chuckle suddenly came from the side: "Hey~ This is the first time I heard that Russian food is not considered Western food."

Du Fei followed the sound and looked.

I saw a man and a woman walking from the side. The man had thick eyebrows and big eyes, was polite, and wore glasses. He met Du Fei's eyes and smiled slightly, a little apologetically.

The woman has slender eyebrows and a pair of pink and phoenix eyes. She is quite beautiful and is somewhat connected to Zhu Ting. The yin and yang words just now were said by her.

Zhu Ting looked back, stood up and said, "Second sister, second brother-in-law, why are you here?"

Then he introduced to Du Fei: "This is my fourth uncle's second sister Zhu Li, and my second brother-in-law Liu Jingwen, who works at the city party school."

Du Fei also stood up and shook hands with Liu Jingwen, introducing himself: "Du Fei, for the time being, is Sister Ting's revolutionary comrade."

Zhu Li was rather sharp-tongued, and she didn't like Du Fei, so she interrupted: "What do you mean by temporary settlement?"

Du Fei said calmly: "It's still in the inspection period. I don't have the final say whether it's qualified or not."

Zhu Ting blushed. She paused deliberately and asked Du Fei to introduce herself, but she was a little unsure about how to position her relationship with Du Fei.

Let’s just say they are partners, the relationship between the two of them really hasn’t reached that point yet.

Let’s just say they are just ordinary colleagues~ There are no ordinary colleagues who go out alone for dinner on Sundays!

Julie "hummed" and simply pulled her husband to cook it here. She said with an unkind look on her face: "Duffy, right? Don't be so glib. Let me ask you why Russian food is not considered Western food. Do you think our family Xiaoting is young, so she just talks nonsense and deceives people casually, right~"

Later, Zhu Li gradually realized that Du Fei seemed to be younger than Zhu Ting.

Zhu Ting, who was said to be 'still young', covered her forehead with embarrassment and felt like she had cancer.

Liu Jingwen on the side looked obviously apologetic, but he obviously couldn't control his wife and could only stand by and watch.

Du Fei took his time and looked at Julie with a smile.

Although Zhu Ting's second sister doesn't speak very well, she doesn't feel too annoying.

Du Fei calmly sat back and said, "Sister Ting, how about we come together?"

Zhu Ting rolled her eyes at Zhu Li and said to herself, I finally went out on a date, but you still have to come over and cause trouble.

Zhu Li glared and understood Zhu Ting's thoughts, and said angrily: "Damn girl, I'm not doing it for your own good!"

Zhu Ting reluctantly stopped talking to her and called the waiter again.

After ordering the dishes for the second time, Zhu Li still did not forget to point the finger at Du Fei, and said angrily: "Don't think that just changing the topic is the end of the matter. If you don't tell me about Ziwu Maoyou today, I will force you to know." , the women of our Lao Zhu family are not easy to mess with!"

Du Fei looked at Liu Jingwen sitting next to him with some sympathy.

This made Liu Jingwen push up his glasses in embarrassment.

Zhu Ting was beside her, shouting in a long voice: "Second sister~~~"

Du Fei had some time to rest and looked at Zhu Ting: "Since the second sister insists on asking for advice, it's okay for me to talk."

Zhu Li said "hum" and wanted to say who is your second sister, but Zhu Ting pinched her thigh from underneath.

Du Fei said: "Since we are talking about Western food, we must first clarify what Western food is."

Julie curled her lips and said: "It goes without saying that Western food is the food of Western countries~"

Du Fei was stunned for a moment, but he didn't expect that Zhu Li actually came to help him, and said with a smile: "The second sister is right, then whether Russian food is considered Western food depends on whether Russia is considered a Western country... The modern world Geography, Westerners divide the Eurasian continent into four parts based on themselves: the first part is themselves; the second part is the Far East, which is China; the third part is the Middle East, which is the Arab region; and the fourth part is the Near East. , including the Balkans, Poland, Ukraine...and Russia..."

At this point, Du Fei paused with a half-smile: "Obviously, Russia is an oriental country, and Russian food is certainly not Western food."

Julie was stunned for a moment, she was not ignorant.

Although I didn't go to college, I graduated from a technical secondary school and read a lot of books.

She also knew about the Far East and the Middle East, and even often heard about it on the radio.

But what the hell is ‘Near East’?

Looking at the words, it seems reasonable to have ‘far’, ‘middle’, and ‘near’, but why haven’t I heard of it?

The most important thing is that the last shovel of soil to bury herself was filled in by herself!

It was her own words that "Western food is food from Western countries" that allowed Du Fei to logically prove that Russian food is not Western food.

At this moment, Liu Jingwen, who was sitting aside and had been silent, finally said, "Brother Du, do you mind if I call you this?"

Du Fei said: "Brother Liu, you are so polite, I get what I ask for."

Liu Jingwen smiled and said: "Brother Du, this is a sophistry of changing the concept. The West itself is a constantly changing concept. The concept of the Near East is also quite old. After the First World War, it was basically no longer used and would only appear in some In the discussion of the history of civilization. And whether the concept of the Near East includes Russia is also open to question."

Du Fei was not unhappy because of Liu Jingwen's rebuttal.

From these few sentences alone, it can be seen that Liu Jingwen is quite knowledgeable.

Moreover, he spoke in a leisurely manner, which made Du Fei have a good impression of him. He smiled and said, "It's just a joke. Don't take it seriously."

Just at this moment, the waiter also started to serve the food.

Du Fei and Liu Jingwen then chatted about other topics, ranging from classical literature to historical allusions, and the topics were all kinds of, but no one dropped their words.

Sitting across from each other, sisters Zhu Ting and Zhu Li became supporting roles.

Especially Zhu Li, she no longer dared to underestimate Du Fei.

Despite her aggressive appearance, she actually admires her husband very much in her heart.

I think their old Liu is the most knowledgeable!

Now Liu Jingwen and Du Fei are talking happily, which at least shows that Du Fei's knowledge and accomplishments are not much different.

This made Julie very embarrassed.

I was too reckless today and interfered with Zhu Ting's date.

Thinking of this, she simply picked up a glass of vodka and said, "Xiao Du, it was my fault earlier. I thought you were a talker. I'd like to propose a toast to you, to make amends for you, and to be with Xiaoting in the future. It's a good thing." "

After saying that, he filled a cup of vodka, enough for one or two vodka, and drank it all in one gulp!
