Xiao Zhi's attitude was very cooperative, and even Tashi's father's face softened a little.

Xiao Zhi touched the pole and climbed up, and asked Tashi enthusiastically, "Are you thirsty? Do you drink tea or water? Oh yes, you probably like tea."

During the two days when the original owner stayed in the Tibetan area, he found that the Tibetans basically never left barley wine and buttered tea.

Tashi gave him a cold look: "Go and sit on the sofa, don't try to play tricks."

Xiao Zhi turned around and sat back on the sofa, said with a smile, "Hey, don't be so defensive, I really want to cooperate, and I will definitely not play tricks." Then he pointed to the cabinet in the living room, "There is tea in it, and hot water in the kitchen kettle. You can make your own tea."

Tashi glanced at him, and sneered indistinctly, "Hmph, Han."

Xiao Zhi: "..." In the past, he was from Beimo, and Lan Yi was from Han. Lan Yi called him "barbarian" in this tone.Now that the two have switched positions, the tone of voice is still the same... So it's really not good to talk about regional discrimination.

Tashi said something to his father in Tibetan, and his father took out a small plastic bag from his coat pocket, which contained a kind of off-white flour.

Xiao Zhi recognized this as the most commonly eaten grain of Tibetans—tsampa.

Tashi took the tsampa from Abba, and took off the liberation hat on his head, revealing the big black braid coiled on the top of his head, tied with a red hair rope.He pulled the hair tie, and the loosely braided hair fell down and hung down his back.

Xiao Zhi watched Tashi take the tsampa into the kitchen, and the braided tail flicked slightly on Tashi's back, as if scratching his heart, making his eyes straight.

"Hey!" Abba Tashi shouted at Xiao Zhi, who had just taken off his hat, revealing the braids on top of his head, which could be seen to be curly hair.

Tashi's father is very big, and he is full of the wildness of the snow-covered plateau from appearance to imposing manner, which is very different from Tashi.And it looks too young for its age.Men in the prairie generally look older than their real age, but Tashi's father looks only about 35. How old was Tashi when he was born?

Abba stumbled and said a few words to Xiao Zhi, mixed with Chinese and Tibetan, Xiao Zhi was confused.

"My dad said, do you have altitude sickness?" Cai Ling translated for his dad. He speaks Chinese fluently, and the accent is not too heavy.

Xiao Zhi was a little surprised: "Yo! You can also speak Chinese!" He gave a thumbs up, "That's pretty good!"

Cai Rang's face was tanned to a wheat color, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, somewhat resembling his father.He didn't grow his hair long, and he shaved it into a crew cut, which made him look even more tiger-headed and tiger-headed.

Cai Rang was praised by Xiao Zhi and raised his head proudly: "My elder brother taught it."

Xiao Zhi nodded with a smile, only to realize that it was indeed Tashi's younger brother, and the flattery just now was right.

"I have high altitude sickness, but it doesn't matter, I can carry oxygen with me." Xiao Zhi said, the original owner only went to the low-altitude area of ​​Linzhi at that time, and some places were not even 3000 meters high, so he developed a strong plateau reaction.

Altitude sickness is quite unpredictable, and it does not necessarily mean that a strong and strong person will have a small reaction, so no special medicine has been developed to combat it so far.

Sometimes strong people in the mainland have stronger reactions when they reach the plateau, especially tall and strong men, because of their high muscle content and high oxygen consumption, they usually have a strong reaction to high altitudes.

This is the case of the original owner Xiao Genwang. He is usually in good health and tall. He has been living in a low-altitude area. When he gets to the plateau, he can't get used to it. He keeps the oxygen bottle in his hand and hastily collected dozens of catties. Cordyceps hurried back to the mainland.

Only then did he ask his father to translate it, but his father frowned and didn't say anything.

At this time Tashi came back, carrying two large bowls in his hand, and after seeing it, he ran into the kitchen and brought out a bowl.

Xiao Zhi leaned down and saw that their bowls were full of tsampa.Tsampa is ground barley barley flour after frying. It is cooked in itself and can be brewed with hot water.

The original owner, Xiao Genwang, also ate it in Tibetan areas. The locals like to mix it with buttered tea, milk dregs and sugar, and then eat it with highland barley wine.

Ghee and milk dregs are made from yak milk. The original owner didn't drink much milk since he was a child, and he wasn't used to the taste.But Xiao Zhi used to be a nomad, and he ate dairy products a lot. When he thought about the taste of tsampa, he felt pretty good, and his stomach started to wriggle again after eating mutton skewers for dinner.

It's a pity that Tashi and the others are too far away from home at this moment, so they can only make do with plain water.

The three of them each drank a bowl of barley paste. Tashi put away the bowl and wanted to wash it, but he was called to stop him.

Cai Rang had a hesitant look on his face, and there was a lot of expectation in his dark eyes, as if he had made some unreasonable request.

Abba immediately refused, and then let him say "Oh" in frustration, and then heard what Tashi said to Abba, and finally Abba took out two one-yuan paper notes from his pocket and handed them to Cairen.

Cai Rang took the money and ran out of the house joyfully, Tashi gave him some advice from behind, and Cai Rang had already closed the anti-theft door with a bang, Tashi smiled helplessly.

When Tashi went to wash the dishes, Xiao Zhi could only stare at his father.He couldn't sit still, and asked his father: "I want to drink water."

Abba stared at him without a trace of expression on his majestic black face, he couldn't tell if he didn't understand or ignored him on purpose.

Xiao Zhi had no choice but to give up.

However, when Zhaxi came out of the kitchen after washing the dishes, he had an extra water glass in his hand, and Xiao Zhi's eyes lit up immediately: "You are so kind!"

Tashi gave him an annoyed look, and put the water glass into his hand, because of the big movement, a few drops of water splashed out.

Xiao Zhi wiped the drops of water off his hands, and laughed.

Tashi glared at him, "Han man, don't keep making such weird noises, and don't say anything weird anymore."

Xiao Zhi choked, lowered his head to drink water, not daring to do it again.

Tashi also sat on the sofa, and Abba stood there all the time, with a black tower-like body standing there, making Tashi extra slender and slender. The two of them really didn't look like father and son.

Xiao Zhi noticed that Tashi was watching the old color TV on the ground, and said, "This TV can still be watched, do you want to watch TV? It's in color."

At this time, TV was still a rare thing. Tashi and the others came from the Tibetan area, and they probably didn't watch it much.

Tashi pursed his lips and looked at him, his eyes obviously tangled.

Xiao Zhi smiled secretly. Lan Yi always loved to play and new gadgets. He must not be able to resist the temptation, so he continued to seduce, "I can plug in the power for you, and I can receive several channels."

Tashi pursed his lips, "Go and do it, don't make trouble."

Xiao Zhi happily said "Hey" and got up to move the TV.

Tashi said something to Abba, and Abba made room for him.

Xiao Zhi first took the broom and swept the pile of scum into the corner, put the old color TV back on the TV cabinet, plugged in the power, turned on the switch, and then he was dumbfounded.

There is only a circular pattern made of colored blocks on the TV screen... It is almost midnight now, and in this era, there are no programs at night.

Tashi looked disappointed, but when he turned around and saw Xiao Zhi looking at him with apologetic expression, he thought it was funny for some reason, so he couldn't help but smile.

He had been keeping a cold face for a long time, and the only smile was a sneer, now when he showed his face, there was spring in his brows and eyes, Xiao Zhi looked straight at him again, and laughed too.

He just said, as long as you get in touch with him a little, Tashi will definitely be moved by his charisma, and they are an old married couple.

As a result, when he smiled, Tashi put on a straight face again, and turned his head away from him.

At this time, there was a knock on the door, and Tashi went to open the door. He still knew how to look through the peephole, looking very cautious, and then opened the anti-theft door, so he came back with four skewers of mutton skewers in his hand, with a happy expression on his face. .

Only then did he hand over two skewers to Tashi, Tashi only took one, and after he told him something, he happily handed two more to Abba, who also only took one, before letting him take two. The root eye meat skewers are eaten with big mouthfuls, and the mouth is instantly covered with oil.

Abba took the mutton skewers and said something to Tashi, Tashi shook his head with a smile, put his own skewers to his mouth, and took a small bite of the meat.

Abba looked at him and smiled, and began to eat mutton skewers.At first sight, Dad loved eating meat. He couldn't stop after one bite. He finished a bunch of skewers in two or three bites, and threw the bamboo sticks on the coffee table.

Seeing the thrift of the three of them, Xiao Zhi felt a little uncomfortable.He took a closer look at this time, only to find that the quality of the Han Chinese clothes of the three people was not good. From hats to shoes, they were basically the cheapest kind.Dad's body is heavy, and his shoes are useless for walking, and the soles of his shoes are already a little glued.

"Tashi," Xiao Zhi called out.

Tashi was surprised when he called out his name.

"I'll treat you and your family to mutton skewers." Xiao Zhi said, taking out two ten-yuan paper notes from his pocket.

Tashi was stunned, then suddenly showed an angry expression, dropped the bamboo stick in his hand and strode towards him, grabbed his collar, and said in a condescending voice: "Han people, don't pretend to be smart."

Xiao Zhi couldn't help being surprised, he didn't expect Tashi to have such a big prejudice against himself, or Han people.He raised his hands in a harmless gesture, looking up at Tashi.

He was still being grabbed by Tashi's collar, and he didn't show any embarrassment on his face. He said sincerely, "I really don't mean anything else. You know, I took a lot of advantage from Dorje before, and I have always felt sorry for it. You are friends of Duoji, and it is only right for me to treat you to dinner when you come to the mainland."

Tashi's face changed again and again, and he pushed him onto the sofa angrily, and said in disgust: "You Han people just have a mouth that can speak well!"

Seeing that they seemed to be about to attack again, Abba asked aloud.Tashi hesitated for a moment, but told the truth, his eyes lit up, but seeing Tashi's face, he didn't dare to say anything.

Tashi looked at it, and a complex expression of annoyance, resentment and regret appeared on his face.

Seeing that he was in such a bad mood because of the mutton skewers, Xiao Zhi felt very uncomfortable.

He beckoned to Cairang, handed the 20 yuan forward, but looked at Tashi: "I'm hungry too, I want to ask Cairang to buy some mutton skewers for me, the extra money is Cairang's hard work fee."

Cai Rang took a step towards him, glanced at Tashi's expression, and then backed away.Tashi took a big step forward, and slammed the money in Xiao Zhi's hand onto the ground. With a humiliated expression on his face, he said fiercely, "Shut up your mouth if you talk again!"

Xiao Zhi was startled, glanced at Tashi, and said in a low voice, "I'll listen to you, don't be angry."

Tashi stared at him bending over to pick up the money with complicated expressions in his eyes.

"Cai Rang," Dad said, took out another wad of money from his pocket, counted ten one-yuan notes and handed them to Cai Rang.

Cai Rang took the money, but didn't show the joyful expression just now. After struggling for a moment, he returned the money to Abba and said something in Tibetan to Abba.What exactly was said, Xiao Zhi could guess from Tashi's expression.

Tibetans graze and breed by themselves, all of which are self-produced and sold, with very little money in hand.There are also people who sell Tibetan medicine and Chinese caterpillar fungus for money, but at this time Tibetan medicine and Chinese caterpillar fungus have just become popular in the Mainland, and the prices are very low, and many Tibetans have no way to buy or sell them.

Tashi glared at Xiao Zhi angrily again, took the money and stuffed it into his hand for Cairang, and said to him directly in Chinese: "Go buy it. Elder brother can make money."

Xiao Zhi knew what he was telling him, so he sighed secretly.

After a while, he came back with a bunch of mutton skewers, and he had a smile on his face again. He chatted a lot with Abba and Tashi, beaming with delight, probably talking about what he had seen and heard on the way shopping.Things in the Mainland are always new to them.

Tashi listened to it before letting him speak, and his expression gradually softened.

Tashi and his family sat and stood, ignoring Xiao Zhi, and ate mutton skewers by themselves.The scent of mutton and cumin floated into Xiao Zhi's nose, and his stomach made a "gurgling" sound, which was quite loud.

Tashi paused for a moment, glanced at him, then took some mutton skewers and handed them to him: "Eat!"

Xiao Zhi was overwhelmed by the flattery, and quickly took it, but he was not in a hurry to eat it: "I have wine at home, do you want to drink it?"

Abba suddenly raised his head, he understood the word "wine" and said with a smile, "wine!"

Xiao Zhi laughed loudly, put the mutton skewers on the cup of the coffee table, got up to get the wine.Tashi immediately put down the lamb skewers in his hand and followed him silently.

Xiao Zhi pretended not to know that he was preventing himself from escaping, and asked with a smile, "Would you like white wine or beer?"

Tashi followed behind without saying a word, just looked at him coldly.

Xiao Zhi said to himself as if to help himself, "Then let's have some." He found a beer and a large bottle of Red Star Erguotou, and handed them directly to Tashi to carry them Then, he took out a large piece of bacon from the refrigerator and sliced ​​it on the chopping board.

When he was cutting the meat, Tashi was leaning against the kitchen door and watching him, holding the wine in both hands, silently watching his skillful knife skills.

Xiao Zhi suddenly turned around and smiled at him, there was a man standing at the door of the kitchen cooking with him, this scene was so familiar to him.

Tashi was taken aback by his smile, his expression a little unnatural.Xiao Zhi didn't embarrass him, he turned his head after taking a look, quickly put the sliced ​​bacon on a plate, carried the meat and went to the living room with Tashi.

He said and gestured to Abba that he wanted to exchange wine and bacon for their lamb kebabs. Ever since Abba saw the wine, the smile on his face hadn't stopped, and he nodded cheerfully.

Xiao Zhi graciously poured wine for his father and the others. Considering that Tibet does not use chopsticks, he also directly ate the bacon with his hands, which made his father and Cai Rang very comfortable.

Tashi could understand his flattery to his family, and in addition to helplessness, some strange emotions arose in his heart.

The three and a half men drank and ate meat at the same time. Abba and Xiao Zhi kept clinking glasses, and the half-baked Chinese bridged the gap between the two, and they were able to chat.Tashi listened to the two of them talking about each other, his expression became more relaxed, and he gradually let go of eating. He liked the bacon very much, and ate several slices in a row.

Xiao Zhi quietly moved to his side, and said in a low voice, "I like to eat and I'll buy some tomorrow."

Tashi swallowed the meat in his mouth in silence, and looked at him seriously: "It's useless for you to please us, you must follow us to Tibet."

Xiao Zhi said: "I understand! I didn't want to run away. I really understand. Dorji's actions were too dishonest. I wanted to treat you better when I saw you." He carefully looked at Tashi's expression. Seeing his calm and gentle expression, he boldly said: "Besides, I feel very kind when I see you, as if I have seen you before."

Tashi slightly opened his eyes wide and looked at him in surprise.

Xiao Zhi was determined, knowing that he must have had a similar feeling, he was agitated for a moment, he laughed, raised his head and suffocated a whole bottle of beer in one breath.When he was drinking, he was in a bold posture, and a little wine flowed down his neck. Tashi kept staring at him unknowingly. It wasn't until Abba and Cai Rang who were next to him applauded Xiao Zhi that he suddenly realized, Silently turned away.

Xiao Zhi put down the wine bottle, wiped his mouth, and said to Tashi through the strength of the wine: "Maybe, we have fate in previous lives."

He himself didn't know how hot his eyes were when he said this.

Tashi looked at him quietly for a while, the corners of his mouth moved, as if he was holding back a smile, he lowered his head and took a sip of the white wine, then continued to eat meat without looking at Xiao Zhi again.

Xiao Zhi peeked at him, the smile on the corner of his mouth getting wider and wider.
