Second Piano Concerto

Zhuzhu told Qin Haiou about celebrating Ah Si's birthday.Qin Haiou thought of Taofu, and asked if he needed to prepare a birthday present.Zhuzhu said no need, but Qin Haiou was still worried, and asked Tan Shuo again when Tan Shuo came to him the next day.Tan Shuo smiled and said, "No, it's just a few friends gathering for a meal, so I can introduce you to them." Then he asked, "Do you drink?"

"I don't drink." Qin Haiou said.Tan Shuo nodded, and the two left the inn and walked towards the dining place.

There are many large and small restaurants in Longjin Town, and the most popular one is Longge Restaurant.The owner of the restaurant, Long Ge, is a veteran donkey friend who is righteous and has great prestige in the town; the dishes are mainly local dishes and snacks, and are very popular among tourists and town residents because of their excellent taste and reasonable prices.In the circle of donkey friends, this restaurant is one of the places that donkey friends must visit when they come to Longjin Town.Although Qin Haiou didn't know about this, he also passed by this lively restaurant when he was wandering around the town, and he found it very fresh to eat here with Tan Shuo today.

Although it is off-season, there are many people eating in restaurants.The guys here are very familiar with Tan Shuo, and greet him warmly when he comes in.Tan Shuo asked, "Where are Ah Si and the others?" A clerk led them to a corner on the second floor.There is an inconspicuous compartment in this corner, but there is a large space inside the compartment, with a large square table, some bamboo chairs, a low wooden table and two comfortable cloth sofas.There are some old photos and ethnic fabrics on the wall of the cubicle, and a balcony with many flower pots is connected to one side.There is no special private room in this restaurant, this compartment seems to be a room that can be used as a private room.

When Tan Shuo and Qin Haiou came to the cubicle, there were already two people sitting on the sofa.Both of them are young people with glasses, one has long bangs parted in the middle, and the other has a cut cut.The two of them were chatting, but when they saw Tan Shuo coming in, they both smiled.

"Is Brother Long not here?" Tan Shuo asked.

"Not here," Long Bang said, "he won't be back until a few days later."

Tan Shuo nodded, and at the same time let out Qin Haiou who was following behind him: "Let me introduce, this is Xiao Qin, a friend of Zhuzhu and I, who has only been in town for a few days, I will bring him here to get acquainted with the situation. "

"Hello, hello." Long Liu Hai nodded to Qin Haiou.

Qin Haiou's hand moved slightly.He wanted to shake hands with Long Liu Hai, but the other party didn't seem to intend to shake hands, and he was still sitting lazily on the sofa with a very casual posture.Qin Haiou then withdrew his hand back.

"I feel like I've seen you somewhere!" Bancuntou said at this time, "Let me recall..."

Qin Haiou's heart rose to his throat, which was something he hadn't expected at all.He didn't expect that in this small town, in this restaurant, he would be recognized so quickly, what should he do next? !

"Do you think he looks like the brick tea guy we met last time in Ge'erling?" Bancuntou said to Chang Liuhai.

With long bangs, he looked like "Are you blind?" and didn't bother to answer this question.

Tan Shuo introduced to Qin Haiou again: "This is Ah Si, known as 'Siye', today's birthday boy." He pointed to his long bangs and said, "Professional code writers, euphemistically called freelance writers."

"Hello..." Qin Haiou secretly heaved a sigh of relief.

"This is Cao Nan, who runs a thrift store." Tan Shuo pointed at the fingerboard again.

"Come and have a look at my shop when you're free!" Cao Nan immediately took out a business card and handed it to Qin Haiou.Qin Haiou took it with both hands and nodded.

Tan Shuo told Qin Haiou to sit down on another sofa.Ah Si poured tea for the two of them, and Cao Nan asked Qin Haiou, "How old are you, Chief?"

Qin Haiou was stunned for a moment before realizing that he was asking his own age, and replied, "27."

"Then I can call you Xiao Qin, I'm thirty today." Ah Si said with a smile.

"I can also call him Xiao Qin, I am twenty-ninth today!" Cao Nan said.

"It seems that only Xiao Hei is younger than him?" Tan Shuo thought.

"And Xiao Jin." Ah Si said, "Why didn't Sister Ah Zhu come today?"

"I went to the county to pick up guests. She has been really busy recently." Tan Shuo said.

Qin Haiou sat quietly and listened to the relaxed conversation of the three, envious in his heart.He doesn't have many friends, and everyone is very busy. It can be said that there are no friends who can often get together to chat.Thinking of this, I can't help but feel a little lost.

The three chatted for a while, and then a waiter brought two cold dishes.Following the waiter was a black and thin young man, not tall, with big eyes, curly hair, two rows of wide white teeth showing when he smiled, and a greasy apron around his body.

"Xiao Hei!" Ah Si shouted affectionately.

"Fourth Master, Brother Tan, Brother Cao!" Seeing the people in the cubicle, the young man named Xiao Hei couldn't help but smile from ear to ear, "This is..." Then he turned his head and looked at Qin Haiou curiously.

"This is Brother Qin." Tan Shuo introduced with a smile.

"Hello Brother Qin!" Xiao Hei greeted attentively and sincerely.He is young and innocent, and his smile is especially simple and innocent, which is very attractive.Seeing that he was smiling to himself, Qin Haiou smiled at him too: "Hello."

"Xiao Hei is the chef in charge of this restaurant," Tan Shuo introduced to Qin Haiou, "His craftsmanship is the best in Longjin, especially the chicken rice and cured meat he made, oops..." Tan Shuo Shuo swallowed as he spoke.

"It's amazing!" Qin Haiou always believed that cooking is the most difficult thing in the world. Hearing what Tan Shuo said, he immediately expressed his sincere admiration.

"Heh, heh," Xiao Hei scratched his curly head, stuttering with joy, "you, eat first, and I have to go to the kitchen. The dried beef that my mother sent me yesterday has arrived. I will give it to you." Add more food!" Then he ran out with a blushing face.

"Xiao Hei is a mixed blood of two ethnic minorities." Seeing that Qin Haiou had a good impression of Xiao Hei, Tan Shuo told him about Xiao Hei's experience. Brother Long sponsored him to learn crafts from the mountains. He is grateful to Brother Long, and has stayed in this shop since he finished his studies."

After listening carefully, Qin Haiou nodded.

At this moment, Ah Si said, "Why isn't Zhao Fei coming?"

"Who misses me?" As soon as he finished speaking, a man wearing a peaked cap walked in from outside.He had a canvas bag slung across his body and a small camera hanging on his chest. When he came in, he saw that there were people sitting on the two sofas, so he dragged a bamboo chair and sat down beside the square table.

Tan Shuo patted Qin Haiou on the shoulder and introduced, "This is Xiao Qin." Then he said to Qin Haiou, "This is Master Zhao Feizhao! A professional photographer! He opened a photo studio in the town."

"Hello, Mr. Zhao." Qin Haiou said.

The others didn't care what Qin Haiou called Zhao Fei, they just thought he was making fun of Zhao Fei just like Tan Shuo, and even Zhao Fei laughed it off.But Tan Shuo knew that Qin Haiou probably really believed in Zhao Fei's "master" status, so he called him so respectfully.Tan Shuo glanced at Qin Haiou, and was thinking about how to explain it to him, when Zhao Fei asked, "Xiao Qin, do you play photography?"

Qin Haiou shook his head: "I don't quite understand."

Zhao Fei let out an "oh", turned his face to the side, and said nothing.

Tan Shuo quietly said to Qin Haiou while Zhao Fei was going to the bathroom: "This guy is very proud, he treats everyone like this, don't take it to heart." Seeing that Qin Haiou seemed to understand, he felt that he was unnecessary.

Seeing that everyone has arrived, Ah Si invites everyone to come to the table and start eating.At this time, the cold dishes were all served, and the hot dishes were being served one after another. Xiao Hei found time to bring a bucket of home-brewed lychee wine, and Ah Si was busy pouring wine for everyone.He first looked at Qin Haiou, and reached for Qin Haiou's cup.Qin Haiou said: "I don't drink." Ah Si paused, then smiled and said: "It's okay to have some thought!" Qin Haiou became nervous: "I really can't drink." Ah Si's smile froze, and he no longer Persuading him, he poured wine for Tan Shuo instead.

Tan Shuo started eating immediately after serving the table.People here are familiar with each other, and no one will be polite, and he is the oldest, so he is even more confident.As soon as he stuffed his mouth full, he heard the conversation between Ah Si and Qin Haiou, and before he could speak, the conversation was over.He hurriedly swallowed the food in his mouth, and made up a reason to explain to Ah Si: "He really can't drink, he is allergic to alcohol." Ah Si nodded, but still did not speak.

Tan Shuo knew that Ah Si was always trying to save face. Unfortunately, today was his birthday. Qin Haiou's attitude had already offended him, and it was useless to say anything else.So Tan Shuo ignored Ah Si and poured tea for Qin Haiou himself, telling him that you are welcome to eat whatever you want.After hearing this, Qin Haiou reached out to hold the teacup, but did not touch the chopsticks. He was the last one to move the chopsticks until everyone else had poured wine and sat down to pick up vegetables.

Qin Haiou silently picked and ate dishes that did not touch chili, while the other four chatted while eating, and the atmosphere was lively.Ah Si was particularly excited. Under the attack of Cao Nan and Zhao Fei, he not only talked a lot, but also drank very fast.Tan Shuo clinked glasses with the three of them a few times at first, but then he filled a bowl full of rice for himself, and when the three of them drank the bucket of lychee wine to the bottom, he had already eaten two large bowls of rice , is about to fill the third bowl.At this time, Xiao Hei came over to care about how they were eating. When he saw the empty wine barrel, his eyes widened, and he pulled Tan Shuo and said, "Tan, brother Tan, this wine doesn't feel like drinking, but it's actually very, very easy. Drunk, why do you drink so fast!"

Holding the rice bowl, Tan Shuo looked at the three of them with an innocent expression: "Soon? I've already eaten two bowls of rice! Isn't it Xiao Qin?"

Qin Haiou looked up at them, not knowing whether to nod or shake his head.

At this time, Ah Si and Cao Nan yelled for Xiao Hei to serve rice wine.Xiao Hei hesitated, Tan Shuo pulled him over and whispered: "You just let them drink! Ah Si has something on his mind today, don't spoil his interest, let them make trouble." After finishing speaking, he urged him with his eyes Go and get the wine.

Xiao Hei was a little surprised, but immediately complied.Two jars of rice wine were served, and one jar was quickly divided up.Knowing that Tan Shuo didn't drink much, the three tried to persuade him to drink.At this time, Tan Shuo had already had a full meal, and although he was slightly tipsy after a few glasses of wine, he was far from drunk.But Ah Si and the others were different. Not only were they reeking of alcohol, but they couldn't even straighten their tongues when they spoke.

After a while, Zhao Fei stood up, hiccupped loudly, touched his stomach and said, "No, I have to... go take a pee."

Cao Nan also stood up, grabbed Zhao Fei and did not let go: "I too... want to pee!"

"Pee together, pee together!" After Zhao Fei finished speaking, the two supported each other and staggered out.

Tan Shuo glanced at Ah Si, who was lying drunk on the table, and turned to Qin Haiou, "Have you finished eating?"

Qin Haiou said, "It's a good meal, thank you."

Tan Shuo was very satisfied, because as long as Qin Haiou ate well and did not drink, he would have successfully completed the task assigned by Zhuzhu.He poured himself a bowl of soup slowly, and was about to persuade Qin Haiou to drink some soup when his phone rang suddenly.He looked at the phone number, frowned, and said to Qin Haiou, "Drink some soup, and I'll answer the phone." Then he got up and walked to the balcony.

As soon as Tan Shuo left, Ah Si and Qin Haiou were the only ones left in the cubicle.Ah Si lay on the ground quietly for a while, stood up crookedly, took two steps towards the sofa, then backed up and bumped his butt against the edge of the table.Qin Haiou was afraid that he would fall, so he hurriedly got up to help him.Ah Si felt that there was someone beside her, and slowly turned her head to look at Qin Haiou.His eyes were bloodshot, and his nostrils breathed hot air. His eyes seemed to be looking at Qin Haiou, but they seemed to be staring at other places through Qin Haiou. His flushed face was intertwined with hatred, infatuation and madness.

Qin Haiou was frightened by his appearance, just looked at him, not knowing what to say.Ah Si was obviously drunk, his lips were murmuring and wriggling, and he uttered a series of vague syllables. Qin Haiou leaned closer to listen, but was suddenly pushed back on the chair by him.

Ah Si pressed Qin Haiou's shoulder and sat down beside him.He shook the person beside him vigorously, his hoarse voice finally became clearer, and said through gritted teeth: "You dumped me...you fucking dumped me!"

Qin Haiou was taken aback, completely unable to understand what he was talking about.
