Chapter 453: Eating Roast Duck and Shopping
After having breakfast in the cafeteria, Yu Hui and Gu Huai walked hand in hand in the garden downstairs.
As soon as he returned to the ward, the leaders of the hospital and the Beijing Military Region came to see Gu Huai and brought some fruits, malted milk and royal jelly, which are high-end nutritional products.
Seeing that Gu Huai was well, the leaders of the Beijing Military Region were also very happy and asked him to take good care of his health and go home after he recovered.
Five days later, Gu Huai's body fully recovered, and after a systematic examination by Director Mo, he had met the discharge criteria.
The two of them completed the discharge procedures and moved into the guesthouse arranged by the military district.
The guesthouse was still the same one where Yu Hui and Xiao Li had stayed before, except that the single room was changed into a double room.
"Let's go have roast duck at noon?" Yu Hui said to Gu Huai after putting her luggage away.
Jingshi's roast duck is very famous, but she has never tried it.
Gu Huai nodded and said, "Okay."
Yu Hui: "After eating roast duck, we'll go shopping in the state-owned stores. Tomorrow we'll go to the Forbidden City, the day after tomorrow we'll go to the Great Wall, the day after that we'll take a day off, and the day after that we'll buy tickets to go home."
Gu Huai had no objection to Yu Hui's schedule and nodded, "Okay."
After packing up at the guesthouse, the young couple left.
There was a bus stop right in front of the guesthouse. The two stood in front of the bus stop and waited for a while before getting on the bus.
There are so many people on the Beijing buses that there are no seats at all and people are so crowded.
In addition, the weather is hot in summer and the air in the car smells bad.
Yu Hui held the back of the seat with her hands, and Gu Huai held the handle, protecting her in front of him.
The bus arrived at the station, and Gu Huai protected Yu Hui and squeezed onto the bus.
Yu Hui breathed in the fresh air, wiped the sweat from her forehead with a handkerchief, and panted heavily, saying, "The buses in Beijing are much more crowded than those in Chongqing."
Gu Huai raised his hand to touch the sweat on his forehead and said, "It's the capital after all, there are a lot of people."
There are not only many locals, but also many outsiders.
"The roast duck restaurant is just ahead, a little further on."
When he came to Beijing to study before, the comrade who was responsible for receiving them took them to a roast duck restaurant to eat roast duck, so he knew the place.
The two arrived at the state-owned roast duck restaurant. Gu Huai asked Yu Hui to find a seat while he went to order.
As expected of the capital, there are quite a few people in this roast duck restaurant, but most of them are from other places who come here because of its reputation, and you can hear a variety of different accents.
The attitude of the waiters was very average. Basically everyone had a stern face, as if someone owed them money.
However, this is also a characteristic of this era.
Gu Huai came back after taking his order. He picked up the teapot on the table and poured water while saying, "I ordered half a roast duck, a Beijing-style shredded pork, a stir-fried mixed vegetable, and a duck stewed in a duck bone soup. Let's eat first. If it's not enough, we can order more."
Yu Hui said, "Three dishes and one soup are definitely enough for the two of us."
She seemed to be eating quite a lot of food.
Roast duck and soup were served first. The waiter saw that Gu Huai was wearing a military uniform and his attitude was quite good.
When the roast duck was served, Gu Huai picked up a piece of crust and taught Yu Hui how to eat it.
"This roast duck should be eaten wrapped. Take a piece of pancake skin, put a piece of roast duck on it, add some shredded green onions and cucumbers, and dip it in sweet noodle sauce. A wrap like this..."
As soon as Gu Huai finished wrapping the roast duck, he saw Yu Hui already eating it.
"This roast duck tastes really good." Although the attitude of the staff in this roast duck restaurant is not very good, the roast duck at this time still tastes very good, and the roast duck skin is also particularly crispy.
Gu Huai was stunned for a moment. This must be her first time eating roast duck, and she actually knew how to eat it?
He thought again, roast duck is also a specialty of Beijing. She has been in Beijing for so many days and may have heard people tell her how to eat it.
The roast duck and Beijing-style shredded pork were both wrapped in pancake skin and were quite filling. Yu Hui didn't eat anything, so the two bowls of rice brought by the waiter went into Gu Huai's stomach.
The old duck soup is made with duck bones and tastes very ordinary, not as good as the sour radish and old duck soup that Yu Hui makes herself.
After dinner, the two went to a nearby state-owned store.
The state-owned stores in Beijing are also larger and have a more complete range of goods.
Yu Hui bought some toys and a few pairs of shoes for the children, facial cream and powder for her sister-in-law and Gu Hongmei, and a belt for Gu Huai.
She didn't buy any clothes. Yu Hui made clothes herself, and the styles of clothes in Beijing were not as good as her own.
At 4:30 in the afternoon, the two returned home with a full load and had a quick meal in the canteen of the guesthouse in the evening.
After eating, they held hands and took a walk outside before returning to the room.
"Should I wash first or you?" Yu Hui looked at Gu Huai and asked.
Gu Huai's Adam's apple rolled up and down, "You wash first."
"Okay." Yu Hui took her pajamas and clothes and went into the bathroom.
Gu Huai sat on the chair, glanced at the bathroom, then turned his head to look at the double bed behind him.
Yu Hui washed for twenty minutes and came out of the bathroom, drying her hair. "I'm done, you can go now."
Take a shower early and go to bed early, because you have to get up early tomorrow morning to visit the Palace Museum.
"Oh." Gu Huai went into the bathroom.
After Gu Huai finished washing, he realized that he had forgotten to bring in a change of underwear and pajamas.
"Xiaohui, I forgot to take my underwear and pajamas, can you help me get them?"
"OK."
Without thinking, Yu Hui took out Gu Huai's underwear and pajamas from the luggage bag. She didn't find the pajamas, so she took the underwear and pajamas directly to the bathroom door.
"Give."
Gu Huai opened the door a little, stretched out his wet big hands, grabbed the clothes and took them in.
The bathroom door closed again, and Yu Hui lifted the thin quilt and got into bed.
"Ahaha..." She yawned loudly.
After spending the whole afternoon shopping in state-owned stores, she was really a little tired.
After a while, Gu Huai came out of the bathroom with his upper body naked.
Although Yu Hui had seen Gu Huai shirtless many times and touched him many times during the time he was unconscious.
But now seeing him shirtless, Yu Hui's eyes still flashed.
"I can't find your pajamas. Look for them yourself."
Gu Huai searched in his bag and said, "No, maybe I left it in the ward and forgot to pick it up. It's okay, I can sleep without a shirt on."
Gu Huai zipped up his luggage bag and got on the bed. The 1.5-meter bed was not small, but not big either. As soon as he got on the bed, his bare arms touched Yu Hui's arms.
The feeling of skin touching skin is wonderful and a little comfortable.
Yu Hui once read a book that said if you like someone, you will want to be close to him.
She turned her head to look at Gu Huai, only to find that he was looking down at her, his eyes somewhat tender and sticky, as if he was drawing silk.
"Why are you looking at me?" She swallowed dryly and licked her lips involuntarily.
