Chapter 296 Yangcheng Hotel
At first, everyone thought that Gu Mingyue had prepared too much and that they wouldn’t be able to finish it.
There is strength in numbers, and the food others brought was only dry rations, not as many as what she had prepared.
Especially the preserved egg and pepper, which is very popular among people. After just one day and one night, it is almost finished.
Gu Laoliu and Li Dayong were in the next carriage. Gu Mingyue was afraid that they would feel embarrassed, so she picked out some of their things and asked Guanglei to deliver them over.
They are all family members here, so everything is relatively peaceful.
It's not the case next door. There are also a family of three, but the one they bring is a boy, about six or seven years old. He is never well behaved and jumps around all the time. The other parents don't care, which makes the others complain.
Gu Laoliu had just taken out a piece of pastry to eat when the boy found him and started shouting for food. When they refused to give him any, he was ready to take it.
The key point is that the boy’s mother did not stop it.
Back then, Gu Laoliu was also the leader of the village's rogue gang. Although he has restrained himself over the years, it doesn't mean that he has turned over a new leaf. It's just a job requirement, and he's just pretending to be a good person. He hasn't changed at heart.
Look, facing the boy's unreasonable demands, he deliberately smacked his lips loudly, hummed while eating, and kept muttering "Oh, it's so delicious..."
The boy's mother thought that gay men would generally be embarrassed to argue with them, but she never expected that this time she would be at a disadvantage.
She was used to taking advantage of others for many years, so she couldn't find the reason from herself. She just kept scolding, "You are an adult, and you have the nerve to argue with a child. You have no manners."
"As a mother, you indulge your child in being a nuisance here, as if you have a high moral character."
The boy's father suddenly stood up and said angrily, "Who the hell are you talking about?"
Gu Laoliu curled his lips and said, "You coward, you show off wherever you go. Also, don't call me mom. If you are not of the right gender, don't call me dad either. It's unlucky to have a son like you."
The people around couldn't help but laugh out loud.
The boy's mother heard this and screamed, "Can you speak? If you keep talking nonsense, I will tear your mouth apart."
"Hey, this is how I talk to your grandpa, what can you do to me?" He stretched his head forward and said, "Come, come, let me see if you have the guts. I tell you, if you dare to fight, I will follow your family. As long as I don't die, your family will support me for the rest of my life. Do you think I can do it?"
The couple was a little frightened by the other party's rudeness. It was the first time they encountered such a tough person, so they didn't dare to argue anymore. Seeing that their son was still yelling, they slapped him hard on the buttocks twice and reluctantly returned to their seats and sat down obediently.
Children are more aware of current affairs than adults. When they see their parents’ cold faces, they immediately fall silent.
Gu Laoliu said sarcastically, "Oh, can't this be controlled?"
The couple was afraid of being contaminated, so they pretended not to hear...
When Gu Mingyue heard the noise, she was about to ask Guanglei to go over and take a look, when Li Dayong and Gu Laoliu came over.
"Sixth brother, what's wrong?"
"It's okay, I'm just dealing with a naughty kid. Mingyue, give me some more of that preserved egg sauce. It looks really delicious even though it looks so dirty."
"That's called preserved egg and pepper. It's easy to make. I'll teach you later. Here, there's some left. You can take it with you. Is there enough bread for us?"
Gu Laoliu took it and said, "That's enough. Fortunately, you brought these snacks to fill your mouth. Otherwise, it would be really tiring to just sit there."
Gu Mingyue said proudly, "Right? You should prepare more when you go out next time, so you don't have to eat at the dining car every day."
After three days on the train, even the most cheerful girl Liang Yuanyuan was listless. After much anticipation, we finally arrived at our destination - Guangzhou.
After getting off the car, everyone looked around. To be honest, they were a little disappointed. The houses around them didn't seem as good as those in their village.
Sun Shugao couldn't help but say, "This looks like a fishing village?"
Gu Mingyue thought to herself, it won’t be long, just wait and see, this place will develop rapidly.
But he still pretended to agree and nodded.
In her previous life, she had learned the local language and asked passers-by about the location of the hotel and then took people to find a car.
Bai Fenglai was surprised and asked, "Mingyue, you can speak Cantonese?"
"Of course. It's not easy to go on a long journey, so I have to learn some of the local dialect. Otherwise, I won't even know if I'm being cheated."
Liang Yuanyuan held her hand and said seriously, "Aunt, I am so happy to have you."
The childish words made everyone laugh. Bai Fenglai didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "I don't know where you learned those nonsense words all day long."
Liang Yuanyuan said innocently, "Every time Daddy says this to Mommy, you're always very happy. Auntie, don't you like to hear it?"
Gu Mingyue glanced at Bai Fenglai teasingly and said with a smile, "I like it! Yuanyuan and aunt should talk more about it in the future. I love to hear it."
Gu Laoliu also bared his teeth and agreed, "Sixth Uncle also likes to listen. Yuanyuan will tell me when you are free."
Before he could finish his teasing, Liang Shaoling hit him with his elbow.
The commune actually sent people here as well. Although they did not hold high hopes for this trip, the leaders attached great importance to it as a new emerging industry in the town.
Since Gu Mingyue and the others set out early, they agreed to meet at the hotel.
Yangcheng Hotel was completed and opened in 1968.
The main building has 27 floors and is currently the tallest building in the country. It is also the largest hotel to date. Since the trade fair began, almost all foreign businessmen have settled here.
However, the attitude of the staff here was not very good. Seeing that they were from a small place, they not only threw things in front of them, but also rolled their eyes impatiently when they asked a few more questions.
Gu Mingyue will stay here for at least another week and doesn't want to face this dead face all day long.
She turned around and said, "Sister Bai, I'll be here for a while. I just saw some fruit for sale outside. They're all fruits I've never eaten before. Take Yuanyuan out for a walk to get some fresh air and buy some to try. Brother Liang, you come with us too. There are so many people around, so be careful."
After years of tacit understanding, Bai Fenglai immediately understood, "Okay, then take it easy."
Gu Mingyue nodded, "Yes, I know."
After everyone left, she slammed the table and said coldly, "Call your leader over."
The receptionist said disdainfully, "Tsk, who do you think you are? If you don't want to do it, get out of the way. I don't have time for you country bumpkins."
At this time, a man came in from the side, followed by a blond and blue-eyed foreigner.
The receptionist immediately changed his expression and said enthusiastically, "Hello, welcome."
The man who cut in line first bowed and nodded and said a few words to the foreigner, then he prepared to check in with a proud attitude.
When he handed over his ID, Gu Mingyue stepped forward and pushed him away. "Comrade, first come, first served, understand?"
The man should be a translator. He first explained to the foreigner, then turned back and said with gritted teeth, "I heard your conversation. Don't pretend to be a country boy. If you delay my business, you will delay the future development of the country. Be careful or I will make you pay for it."
Gu Mingyue snorted, "Really? I'm so scared! What? Should I delay you from telling foreigners that the people in your country are of low quality so that they can understand, or delay you from worshipping foreigners and being a weak-kneed lapdog. You look like a traitor, it's really disgusting. You're doing this for the development of the country, but you look more like a traitor seeking glory."
After saying it, he repeated it in English to make sure both of them understood.
Probably because they didn't expect her to know English, both the male translator and the foreigners following her were stunned at first, and then became angry...
