I heard that my life is not long

Haircuts were a big deal for ancient people.

The ancients had the concept of "the body, hair and skin, receive from the parents", and cutting off hair is like cutting off the head.Therefore, on the way to get a haircut, Mei Zi'an was a little worried whether Li Huang would disagree.

However, he was completely overwhelmed.

Because Li Huang is not an ancient, he is not human.

Inside the barber shop.

Li Huang sat on the chair as if facing an enemy, and let the barber touch his head, admiring as he touched it: "Sir, this hair is really good, it's black, shiny, smooth and dense, and it's better than the ones that many female customers have carefully maintained. Your hair is much better now. How do you take care of your hair, do you have any secrets?"

The head of the unicorn beast was touched, and it was touched more than once.Master Li looked coldly at the lifeless man in the mirror.

Barbers know nothing.Mei Zi'an immediately sensed that Mrs. Li was in a bad mood, pressed Li Huang's hand, smiled and said to the barber: "There is no secret, go to bed early and get up early to exercise more, eat more whole grains, keep a happy mood, and your hair will naturally grow alright."

"But to tell you the truth, we are here to cut the hair, and cut all the long hair."

"It's all cut?" The barber was surprised, "Why did you have to cut all the hair for such a good hair?"

Mei Zi'an casually made up a reason: "He recently fell in love with a girl, and the girl doesn't like his long hair."

The barber scratched his thinning hair, and said regretfully, "If I give up my goddess to protect my hair, if I have such good hair, I will have to protect it even if I die."

Mei Zian couldn't help laughing.

"Come on," said the barber, "what kind of cut and shape are you going to make?"

Mei Zi'an comforted Li Huang with an old saying, asked the barber for pictures, and showed Li Huang one by one, letting Li Huang choose by himself.Those gaudy colors and curly hair made Master Li frown, and finally saw a round inch, and his face softened a little.

"Just this." Mei Zi'an pointed to the barber and said, "Shave him a round inch."

The barber looked resentful, as if lamenting that he had no place to display his outstanding skills, then he waved his hand proudly and said, "I promise to give you a very handsome cut."

As the barber clicked the scissors, Li Huang's long hair fell to the ground lightly.Mei Zi'an asked Li Huang to wait patiently for a while, and it will be fine later.

I heard that the two had been talking in a language that he didn't understand, and occasionally there were two sentences in Chinese that he could understand.The barber also smiled in surprise, "My niece also learns a small language. What kind of language do you speak? Why haven't I heard of it?"

Mei Zi'an said calmly, "Sinhala."

"?" The barber: "What language?"

Mei Zi'an: "Sinhala is the language of the Sinhala people in Sri Lanka."

Touching the blind spot of knowledge, the barber humbly asked for advice: "Where is Sri Lanka?"

"An island country in the Indian Ocean." Mei Zi'an said.

The barber recalled the geography textbook in middle school, and finally chose to give up.But his mouth seemed restless, he was quiet for a while and smiled again: "So you are intellectuals, you rarely speak such a small language?"

Mei Zi'an said: "There are very few in China."

"Has this elder brother been in Sri Lanka?" said the barber.

The barber asked Li Huang, but Li Huang obviously didn't intend to answer, Mei Zi'an answered for him: "His mother is from Sri Lanka."

Master Li was inexplicably settled, and there was an extra Sri Lankan mother, a goddess who didn't like long hair.

The barber suddenly realized: "No wonder this eldest brother is so white and has such three-dimensional features, so he is of mixed race."

Mei Zi'an suppressed a smile: "Yeah."

Barber: "Then can he understand us?"

Mei Zi'an looked at Li Huang, obviously Li Huang understood this sentence.

"I understand a little bit." Mei Zi'an said, "Most of them don't understand."

Li Huang obviously understood this sentence, but he didn't pay much attention to it, and studied the mirror curiously.It was the first time that Li Huang saw such a clear mirror, which showed people clearly and clearly.Move your fingers from time to time, blink your eyes, and observe the reaction of the person in the mirror.

This barber is really talkative, talking non-stop, trying to persuade Li Huang to iron it with fashionable tinfoil or something while cutting.

Li Huang didn't know what tin foil ironing was, but he generally understood the weird hairstyles that the barber wanted him to do.Thinking of the chicken feather on his head, Master Li's face darkened.

Mei Zi'an said in an old saying: "It's okay, he just said it, and if you don't agree, he won't do it."

Li Huang's face looked better now.

After finishing the haircut, the barber blew off the cut hair, looked at the perfect round size in the mirror, and was very satisfied: "Okay, look, isn't it very round!"

Li Huang looked at himself in the mirror without hair.

Mei Zi'an comforted him, gave the barber a thumbs up, and said with a smile, "Okay."

After paying the money, Mei Zi'an led Li Huang out.Li Huang is now wearing a black sportswear, with a cropped head, coupled with his expressionless, too tough face, the little girls on the side of the road are scared at a glance.

But even so, Mei Zi'an still felt as if she was taking care of a child on this big day.

Li Huang was not like those monks he met before.Either they are too surprised, and they will make trouble at every turn, and then provoke the police to educate them.It's not like some smooth and smart ones, who quietly observe the people around them, and then follow suit.

Li Huang is like a child who hasn't grown up, full of curiosity and surprise about all the unknowns, and occasionally has a little temper.

very cute.

It seems that he was indeed sealed and fell asleep at a very young age.

Coming out of the barber shop, the driver asked, "Second Young Master, where do you want to go now?"

Mei Zi'an looked at the time: "It's almost lunch time, let's eat outside today, take Mr. Li to familiarize himself with the current living environment, and I will call my mother."

"Where to eat?" the driver asked.

"Green Bamboo Garden."

Along the way, Mei Zi'an noticed that Li Huang was staring at himself in the rearview mirror, strictly speaking, at his hair, raising his hand to stroke it from time to time.Apparently he wasn't quite used to this new hairstyle yet.

Mei Zi'an was amused, while comforting him: "Mr. Li, nowadays men seldom wear long hair, and generally only women have long hair. If you wear long hair, it will be very abrupt, but it is just right now."

Meizi settled down, and praised sincerely: "It's very handsome."

Li Huang touched his own hair, tied his hands, stroked Mei Zi'an's hair, it was soft, then pointed to the driver's hair, and said, "It's different from yours."

Mei Zi'an said: "It will grow in a few days, and it will be the same as us."

Mei Zi'an has short black hair, which has never been permed or dyed, and looks fluffy and soft.Although he was in poor health, his hair was very dark, and he showed no signs of malnutrition.

Only then did Li Huang give up sullenly.

Green Bamboo Garden is a Chinese restaurant. After all, Li Huang doesn't know how to use knives and forks, so chopsticks should be fine.

As the name suggests, Green Bamboo Garden has a lot of bamboo planted in it, and it is an elegant and interesting signboard, attracting those who are arty and like quiet and elegant guests.

Entering from the Green Bamboo Garden, Mei Zi'an keenly noticed that Li Huang's expression had eased a lot.It seems that he also likes the environment here.The wind blowing over the bamboo shoots brings rustling sounds, and the cobblestone path floats with the fragrance of bamboo leaves.

After passing through the clumps of bamboo, the waiter brought Mei Zi'an and his party in and sat down in a cubicle.

When ordering, Mei Zi'an intended to teach Li Huang how to read, so he read the names of the dishes to him one by one from the menu and explained what they meant.

The driver watched from the side, and couldn't help sighing that his second young master was simply too gentle and patient.

Sensing the waiter's surprised gaze, Mei Zi'an explained with a smile: "He just came back from abroad, and he doesn't speak Chinese very well."

Li Huang knew traditional characters, and it was not difficult for him to learn simplified characters.After teaching it, Li Huang can quickly understand and memorize the words he has seen and read, and his learning ability is indisputable. If Mei Zi'an teaches it once, he can speak it out.

The waiter said in surprise, "Sir, you learn so quickly!"

Li Huang didn't lift his eyelids.

Mei Zi'an smiled and said, "He's very smart."

After explaining the menu, Mei Zi'an asked out of politeness, "Is there anything Mr. Li wants to eat?"

Although he explained it, Li Huang still had no idea about these dishes, so he said, "You order."

It was not the first time for Mei Zi'an to come to Cuizhuyuan, so he ordered some signature dishes according to his own taste.

"Would you like wine, sir?" the waiter asked after ordering.

Mei Zi'an looked at Li Huang, and Li Huang nodded.

Mei Zi'an is generally not allowed to drink alcohol. Alcohol is irritating, so he didn't understand. On the recommendation of the waiter, he ordered Li Huang a glass of wine for him to taste.Although Green Bamboo Garden is a Chinese restaurant, it is not ambiguous about the drinks.

The waiter always thought this pair of guests looked weird.Although the tall man was smart, he looked fierce and didn't like to talk to others, but in fact it was this gentle and thin young man who was in charge.

"It's troublesome." After ordering, Mei Zi'an smiled at the waiter.

When Mei Zian smiled, there were two round dimples on her face, which was very flattering.The waitress was a few years older than Mei Zi'an, and she smiled when she saw it: "Okay, I'll serve you soon."

The food came out quickly.

It was the first time for Li Huang to eat in a restaurant, and he was very surprised by the restaurant's excellent service, exquisite tableware and dishes.Although he didn't need to eat, in his impression, even the emperor didn't have such exquisite food in ancient times.

"Mr. Li, please." Mei Zi'an said.

Li Huang looked left and right at the dishes, and stretched out his chopsticks to move them.But his attention was quickly attracted by a glass of red wine that came later.

In the transparent goblet filled with red wine, Li Huang stared at the glass for a while, making sure that it wasn't something like blood, then carefully picked up the wine glass and took a sip.

Mei Zi'an ordered a light-tasting Merlot, with hints of berries, dried plums and spices in the wine.

"Is it good?" Mei Zi'an looked at the serious Li Huang and asked, "If you don't like it, don't drink it."

Li Huang: "It's delicious."
