Chapter 88 Roast Meat
The two brothers went to the alley not far from the hospital, and suddenly smelled the smell of barbecue, drifting leisurely from the bustling food street opposite.Qi Jiang walked a few steps forward, and saw a row of gleaming racks at the entrance of a restaurant where suckling pigs, lamb legs, meat skewers... and even whole lambs were being roasted.A dozen or so tables were put together, and many people were punching while eating barbecue.

He turned back and shouted to his younger brother: "Qilan, let's not go back in a hurry tonight. It's not easy to go out, just sit outside, drink wine, eat barbecue, and don't think about those troublesome things."

Zhang Xiaofa followed his second brother to find a table and sat down, lazily fell on the chair, his whole body seemed to be falling apart.Qi Jiang asked the shop waiter to serve wine and tea, then took the menu and asked his younger brother what he would like to eat.

He was extremely tired, raised his head with difficulty, and glanced at the menu in a hurry, "I can eat whatever I want. Don't ask for too much, so as not to waste it."

Qi Jiang looked at his younger brother and quietly asked the shop waiter: "What kind of meat do you think is suitable for my younger brother?"

The other party smiled and said, "Would you like a plate of roasted venison? Now is the right time to put on autumn fat. I think he is very suitable for tonic."

So the brother generously ordered two roasts of venison, and a fat and tender leg of lamb.

When Zhang Xiaofa opened his eyes in a daze amidst the rich aroma, Qi Jiang was holding a bunch of squeaky roasted venison and shaking it on his nose non-stop.

"Third Brother, are you awake from hunger? This venison is delicious. I cut a few pieces of leg of lamb and put them on the plate in front of you. eat?"

He looked at his brother who was immersed in the joy of food, and he also sniffed vigorously, took a bite of the meat skewers: the flavors of soy sauce, spices, shredded green onion and mashed garlic, together with the natural aroma of venison, immediately moved him. his stomach.

Qi Jiang rinsed the two wine bowls with boiling water, and began to quickly pour green plum wine into it with a clay jug.The fragrance enveloped the small wooden table. The two of them grabbed the bronze-colored pottery bowl, let go of the formality of the usual scholars, imitated the heroes in "Water Margin", touched each other loudly, and drank happily .

Qi Jiang learned the painful lesson of being drunk and unrestrained last time, so he behaved very restrained, and only ordered a small can of green plum wine with very low alcohol content.So they stayed sober as the drunks continued to clamor from adjacent tables.

Zhang Xiaofa drank a bowl of wine, then picked up tea and drank slowly.His eyes casually swept over the banquet, and suddenly fixed on the five people who were drinking with their heads down three tables away.

If he hadn't still had a fresh memory of the battle at Tianjin Station, he wouldn't have noticed that the thin black young man with a shaved head sitting among the five had a thick gauze wrapped around one ear.

The unbearable scene was reproduced in front of his eyes again. Accompanied by the dull gunshot, the dazzling blood splashed on Lin Yitang's chest had a powerful impact on his soul.Witnessing this scene, Zhang Xiaofa desperately crossed the stray bullets to find Qi Jiang, threw him to the ground in time, and escaped the fatal bullet.But before Qi Jiang fell to the ground, the shot he fired missed, cutting off half of a masked man's ear, forcing the man to cover his ears and run away with the rest of his men.

Now, at the grilled skewer stand late at night in the autumn wind, amidst the smell of wine and meat and the noise of diners, it was rare for him to be sober enough to allow him to notice this detail.

At the same time, he felt the pressure. It turned out that these vicious robbers were really hiding in the city, and they came out at night to drink, eat meat and fight like ordinary people. It was creepy to think about it.

Qi Jiang was about to put the second bowl of wine to his mouth, when he saw him concentrating on the problem, with a thin layer of sweat flashing on his forehead, he realized that something important had happened.

"Third brother, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling uncomfortable?"

He lowered his voice, and quietly pointed his finger at the person drinking recklessly at the table: "Second brother, do you remember the person with the gunshot wound in his ear?"

Qi Jiang put down the wine bowl, looked carefully, and his expression became tense: "No, Yuanjia Road is narrow, it seems that I can't eat and drink well tonight. Before being discovered, pack up and leave quickly, in case you are surrounded, there is no gun It's going to be an ugly death."

Zhang Xiaofa didn't dare to stay here for long.So I called the waiter to pay the money, pulled my brother up and left.

He suddenly had an idea: "We have guns now, but we don't have bullets, so it's fake. Should we follow them from a distance, see where the base camp is, and find a way to get some ammunition."

Qi Jiang didn't want to risk his life anymore, and waved his hands again and again: "I know you are worried that these people will continue to trouble Miss Lin's house. You saw it with your own eyes in the hospital tonight, she is Young Master Lin's woman, Everything you can do has been done, don't make trouble for yourself, okay?"

He pulled his elder brother and begged, "Let's help people to the end, okay? A gentleman should have the awareness of adult beauty. I want the one I love to live in peace. What's wrong!"

Qi Jiang shook his head resolutely: "You can't be so selfless, this is extremely irresponsible to all the relatives and friends who love you. Miss Zhu almost made me cry when she heard about the gun battle in Tianjin. She couldn't accept it at the time. Now that I think about it, except People who really care about us, who would give unfaithful words? Have you ever thought that if the two of us were killed by the bullets of the robbers, who would say a word of thanks except Miss Lin? I bet she won't be the little girl you used to know after tonight. Forget about her, forget about those silly words, and live your own life."

Zhang Xiaofa listened to his brother's persuasion with his head down, but couldn't find any reason to refute.Every word Qijiang said was the truth, every sentence contained the truth, and it was all for his sake.

He put his arms on Qi Jiang, "Brother, let's go somewhere else. By the way, tell me Sister Juanjuan's phone number and address. In case I want to find you, I can contact her first. You don't need to bother classmate He Shi'an every time."

After hearing this, Qi Jiang suddenly exclaimed: "Don't tell me, I almost forgot! My coat is still on her. I sent her to a certain alley on the other side of Shichahai, and she asked me to go back, saying that the rest It will be there in a short walk, so there is no need to send it off. I am afraid that I will know where my family lives and make it a mystery."

Zhang Xiaofa grabbed his hand anxiously: "It's dangerous at this late hour, she is walking alone, what if she encounters a hooligan? She is my student, I have to be worthy of being a teacher!"

Seeing that his brother was so anxious that he could hardly breathe, Qi Jiang helped him to rest under the tree by the side of the road: "I haven't finished my words yet. Are you the kind of irresponsible man? I have been quietly following Miss He In the back, I saw her family's car parked at an intersection waiting. I saw the guard get out of the car to pick her up before I came back with peace of mind, that's why I arrived at the hospital later than you." He couldn't laugh or cry after hearing this.

It's time for the two brothers to part again.Qi Jiang drank and felt a little sleepy.He sent his second brother to the gate of Gu's mansion before riding back to school.In the grass outside the dormitory door, the lonely sticky bean bun exudes a fragrance in the singing of crickets.He figured out how difficult it was for He Shi'an to make dim sum, so he picked up the paper bag.

When I got back to the house, it was the middle of the night, and after washing up, I lay down on the bed, not wanting to move anymore.The cute sticky bean bags were dragged from the chair to the ground by the puppy, and then they got out of the paper bags one by one with their paws, rolled to the wall and arranged them neatly, like a row of smooth little balls.
