Chapter 602 Hearing about hotpot shabu-shabu

Therefore, according to the folk rules of Sijiu City, the first time a man and a woman have a meal with their in-laws, the man should arrive first and arrange everything.

Han Li's family had breakfast, dressed up, and after the eldest sister and brother-in-law arrived, they set out carrying the cigarettes and wine they had prepared in advance.

Since D Laishun often received leaders and entertained foreign guests, the place was quite top-notch in this era in terms of land area and decoration.

D Laishun not only has a separate building of its own, but there is also a marble-carved archway in front of the door. Antique lamps are hung on both sides of the archway, which looks very historical from the outside.

As soon as D Laishun entered, he was in the lobby. There were at least eighteen or nineteen tables and matching back chairs. This place was for entertaining the general public, and the private rooms inside were not open to them.

No matter what era there are, there are poor and rich people. Not everyone can only receive a salary of more than 20 yuan, and they have to take care of a large family. Among them, many people with high wages also need a place to have their teeth punched. There are also many people with jobs and status, the most important ones are young people. They make an appointment with three or five friends, and each of them spreads out a piece of 80 cents and some meat coupons, and they can also come and have a comfortable meal of boiled mutton. So the hall is prepared for these people.

Since it's not dinner time yet, the hall seems a little empty.

Han Li first found the relevant person in charge of D Laishun, and after communicating with him, he took his family to the reserved private room.

When the time was almost up, Han Li took his eldest brother-in-law to the door to greet the Yun family.

This situation can be regarded as a turn of events, and it is now the same as when the eldest brother-in-law invited Han Li to dinner for the first time.

Today, all the Yun family members were dispatched, and even Yun Chengpeng from the Youth Farm in Pinggu District also rushed back.

After being polite, Han Li led the Yun family to the private room. When the two in-laws met for the first time, their words were all polite.

The advantage of having a private room is that you don't have to go out to read the menu and order. After everyone arrived, Han Li said hello, and then a waiter came over with a cold face holding a teapot, teacups, and menus.

Even though the waiter had a cold face the whole time and spoke forcefully, his treatment was already countless times better than those in the lobby.

At this time, if you like to eat fat, order the big Sanchaer, if you like to eat thin, eat cucumber strips, and if you like to eat half fat and half thin, order the small Sanchaer. In addition, add some seasonal vegetables, and there is also a drink for women. Soda drinks are all available.

But when the waiter left, Han Li chased after him and asked him to multiply all the meat he ordered by two.

(I won’t go into details about how mutton can be hung on a dry plate, stand the plate upright, be as thin as paper, even as crystals, neat as threads, as beautiful as flowers, cooked immediately after rinsing, fragrant and tender, and neither tangy nor greasy. Yes, I believe you all know more details than Mao Sui. Let’s look at something different today.)

Both parents had lived in Forty-Nine City for many years, and they had some common topics, but the conversations between Father Han and Father Yun also gave Han Li a lot of knowledge.

They first talked about the scene of eating mutton here in the past five years. At that time, you had to queue up to eat at D Laishun.

Because every time I go to a restaurant, there are many people and few tables. If you come alone and wait for the meal, you don’t know when it will be.

So at that time, if the elders wanted to come here to have a tooth ceremony, they had to go with at least two people. Some people would queue up to place orders and pay, while others would grab tables and occupy seats nearby. Only in this way could they eat the mutton-boiled meat as quickly as possible.

But when you are eating, you are not stable. There is a strong sense of urgency, because there are many people around your table staring at you. They will wait for your butt to leave the chair and quickly seize the position, just like you originally competed for the position. same time.

Later, in order to accommodate more customers at meals, D Laishun modified the copper pot.

The pot for shabu-shabu is still the copper charcoal hot pot, but they have divided it into small grids. One copper pot can accommodate several guests at the same time. No one knows anyone at the same table. Everyone is in their own small grid. Prepare food.

At that time, this pot also had a very famous name called "G He Pot", but this kind of pot was forced to be eliminated soon.

Because the bottom of this kind of pot partition is not completely sealed, food will leak from the gap underneath to the next door. Some people later learned the trick and came to D every day to take advantage of it.

These people can skillfully use chopsticks to take out the meat from other people's grids. When they come, they only order vegetarian dishes and tofu, and then they share a copper pot with those who order more meat and dip it from other people's grids. Cheap.

Later, because of this kind of thing, fights often broke out in D Laishun's hall. In the end, there was no choice but to replace the copper pot.

When Han Li heard this, he thought the matter was over, but the conversation between Father Han and Father Yun around D Laishun did not stop.

The thing is, whether it is private or public-private, they will not just watch as they fail to make money.

After D Laishun was forced to withdraw from "G Heguo", there was a season for eating mutton, but there were not many customers here at D Laishun, and there were even many bad rumors.

After an investigation by the superiors, they finally found the person in charge at that time. At that time, he forced D Laishun's mutton to have the same price as the market, saying that this was called protecting the interests of the people. However, D came to Shun with too many customers, and the person in charge refused to increase the manpower. In order to provide food for the guests, the original sixty slices per pound were cut into thirty slices, twice as thick, which made the original slightly thin slices. The mutton, which can be eaten immediately after rinsing, is almost too chewy.

From that day on, the number of customers began to decrease, but the person in charge didn't want to look too ugly on the books, so he changed the original small-tailed sheep into goats and sheep to stabilize profits, and finally even used old sheep and frozen mutton. Come on, it’s hard to say if people in the Four-Nine City eat other things, but the mutton that they almost eat after autumn every year can be eaten in one bite, so if the taste deteriorates, all the guests will stop coming. .

When the police reported the investigation results to their superiors, the top leaders immediately issued instructions.

"This is a problem. We have to ensure that the mutton must continue to taste good and the roast duck must be even more delicious. Only in this way can we prove the superiority of SHZY."

After that day, D Laishun's hot-boiled mutton returned to its original appearance.

While Father Han and Father Yun were chatting here, Mother Han and Mother Yun were also idle, but most of what they talked about was trivial matters, as well as the situation of Han Li and Yun Yingying.

Han Li was listening to the adults talk about ancient times while urging his eldest brother-in-law to drink. While Father Yun was feeling dizzy, his eldest uncle Yun Chengpeng was already there.

All in all, it was a relatively harmonious gathering, and in the end, the matter between Han Li and Yun Yingying was completely settled.

Yun's father and Yun's mother considered that their current position and family conditions were not good enough and they could not afford a decent dowry for their daughter, but they did not want their daughter to feel too aggrieved when she got married, so they suggested it a little embarrassedly.

Han Li has not returned to the city yet, so he will let the two of them live like this for the time being. How they used to be is so so. Yingying wants to live there after get off work in Ducheng. If anyone asks, tell the truth. The two of them live in Shanghe Village. They were already married by then.

After Han Li returned to the city to work, both parties would notify relatives and friends to hold a formal wedding.

Father Yun and Mother Yun were a little embarrassed when they made the proposal. Unexpectedly, Father Han and Mother Han agreed immediately.

Yun Yingying had told Han Li about their proposal a long time ago. Although he didn't care about the dowry from the Yun family, he couldn't resist his father-in-law and couldn't let go of his face. Besides, this matter was nothing, and he should sleep anyway. Go to sleep.

Han Li then explained the matter to his parents, and this was the scene where they readily agreed just now.
.

In the next few days, the Yun sisters would go directly across Beihai to Mianmian Hutong after get off work.

Not to mention how comfortable Han Li has been these days, he lies down straight away after coming back from boxing practice every morning.

He doesn't need to do anything at home. Apart from going out to drink and chat with neighbors, he mostly stays at home reading, practicing calligraphy and playing tricks.

But this morning, Han Li was playing with the crows in the yard. There was a sound of cars in the alley, and then Gong Jianglong's voice came from outside the street gate.

"Brother Han, are you at home?"

"Here you are, why are Brother Gong here?"

"Mr. Liu asked you to come over."

"Are you going now?"

"Brother Han, if you have nothing to do, go now. Today there are some comrades from Mr. Liu's side. I think this may be the reason why Mr. Liu asked you to come over."

"Comrade? What do you want me to do there? Forget it, let's talk while walking."

Gong Jianglong helped Han Li load the bicycle into the jeep, started the car and drove the two people towards the west. However, Gong Jianglong could not tell what he was asked to do along the way. He only knew that Mr. Liu had seen his physical and mental condition in the past few days. very good.

When Gong Jianglong said this, Han Li's heart skipped a beat. Could it be that Mr. Liu knew about Dali Pill?

However, Han Li immediately threw away this unreliable idea and fed Dali Pills from the air. Except for martial arts practitioners like Master who are more sensitive to body perception, others could not notice it at all. There's a little bit more stuff in the stomach.

There was no good fluoroscopy medical equipment in this era, so Han Li's worries just now were unnecessary.

However, Han Li became confused again. Since it was not about Daliwan, why did Mr. Liu call him over for no reason?

The jeep pulled Han Li to the yard. Mr. Liu was playing with the lark in the backyard with two people of about the same age.
