Chapter 939: Hao Jingshi Persuades Her Daughter

"Because I don't know what kind of wine Han Li likes to drink, I prepared Qibao Daqu and Shanghai Tequ, but now we should finish some of these foreign wines first. Putting these things in the house will make us feel at ease."

However, Hao Jingshi is someone who has eaten and seen, and she directly chose champagne among these three foreign wines.

In her words, brandy has a high alcohol content and is not suitable for drinking today. Wine needs to be decanted, and there is no suitable wine to decant at home. Champagne is the most convenient, and it is just right for drinking it in the current weather.

A bottle of champagne, eight dishes, one soup, and a pot of rice were all finished by Han Li and his three people.

In fact, it should be said that most of the eight dishes, one soup and rice were finished by Han Li, because the dishes in restaurants in Shanghai are not only small, but also small in personal homes.

Let's not talk about the dishes in the Northeast, because they often use basins to serve dishes there.

Families with similar conditions in Sijiu City all use eight-cent round plates to serve food, while the plates for freshmen in Shanghai are only six centimeters, so the capacity is much different.

The champagne tastes good and the alcohol content is not high, so Han Li actually drank half a bottle, and Hao Hongmin and her daughter drank half a bottle.

Unlike Hao Hongmin, whose face turned slightly red, Hao Jingshi looked fine.

During the meal, Hao Jingshi kept picking food with Han Li. She did not mention the house and Hao Jianghe to Han Li when they met for the first time. From beginning to end, they talked about some family trivia, interesting things about the neighbors, and some embarrassing things that Hao Hongmin did when she was a child. In short, the atmosphere at the dinner table was always good.

However, after finishing the meal and cleaning up the venue, it was a bit awkward. Han Li originally planned to go to the hotel to rest for a while, and in the afternoon, he and Hao Hongmin would go to stamp the bicycles, and then the two of them would go to Shanghai City.

But Hao Jingshi actually let Han Li lie down on her daughter's bed for a nap, Hao Hongmin rested on another bed behind the curtain, and she went to chat with the neighbors.

This suggestion is good, but Han Li always felt that Hao Jingshi's suggestion was strange, as if she was expecting something to happen between him and her daughter.

Han Li finally agreed to take a nap here, but he had just asked Hao Hongmin to hold a tree and bend over yesterday afternoon to strengthen his physical strength, so he really just took a nap at noon today.

Hao Hongmin wanted to accompany Han Li to rest for a while, but because they were in their own home now, the sound insulation of this house was extremely poor. If she couldn't control the sound and was heard by others, she would be drowned by the neighbors' spit, so she almost followed Hao Jingshi out.

The time soon came to about two o'clock. Regardless of how Hao Jingshi complained about her children in words and deeds, Han Li rested very well anyway.

In the afternoon, Han Li and Hao Hongmin first went to register the bicycle and stamp it, and then they came to Duolun Road.

After arriving at Duolun Road, the two of them pushed the bicycle and walked.

Along the way, they looked at various buildings with unique styles on both sides, such as Xishi Bell Tower, Kong Mansion, Bai Mansion, Hongde Hall, Hengfeng Tea House, and "Art University Dormitory".

They also have their own uses now, so there is no need to elaborate on this.

While admiring these buildings, Han Li listened to Hao Hongmin telling the news she got from her elders.

In some years, the five major industrial and commercial families in Shanghai, Guangdong Province accounted for two, and their achievements in Shanghai's department stores, service industries, catering industries, and entertainment industries can be called unique.

The success of these people attracted many people from Guangdong Province, but at that time, most of the rich people in Guangdong Province lived in luxury houses in the areas of Nanyang Road and Jing'an Temple Road.

Ordinary people were distributed in the areas of Si* Road, Nan* West Road, Shaanxi* North Road, and Xinzha Road at that time.

The number of people from Guangdong Province in Shanghai increased, and the famous Guangdong Gang was established.

When 46, Shanghai held its first beauty pageant, and the runner-up was said to be a girl from Guangdong Province, and she was also a lady from a prominent family.

However, those were all told to Hao Hongmin by her elders. What really impressed her most was the service industry, because she vaguely remembered that there was a "Guangdong Province aunt" in her family who had been taking care of everything at home.

Later, due to changes in the situation, the factory in her family first took a group photo, and then directly handed it over.

Later, the situation changed again, and their family had to ask the Guangdong Province aunt to leave. Hao Hongmin remembered that she cried for several days because of the departure of the aunt.

Han Li didn't know what the situation of the Guangdong Province aunt was, but he knew that he couldn't let Hao Hongmin continue to talk like this, otherwise when she talked about recent years, she would cry on the street when she remembered the past things, and there would be no way to stop, so he continued Hao Hongmin's words and asked a question.

"What's up with this Guangdong auntie?"

"My mom told me that Guangdong aunties were very popular in Shanghai before, because they were meticulous and quick, and could handle all the rough and delicate work at home, and they could also cook delicious dishes.

Therefore, these Guangdong aunties have earned the reputation of "one-kick", which is not a derogatory term, but a commendatory term, meaning that as long as you hire a Guangdong auntie at home, you don't have to worry about anything, they can handle everything from inside to outside."

Of course, things have their good and bad sides, and so do people. Even if they are from Guangdong Province, some people who are willing to work hard and endure hardships become the "kicks" that are fought over, while others become "salty water girls".

(Please search for salty water girls yourself. Hao Hongmin was embarrassed to talk about it, so I won't write about it here.)

As the two talked, they came to the front of Hao Hongmin's ancestral home. There was an open space on the side close to the street, and inside was a two-story building with a small garden in the cross section.

And according to Hao Hongmin, this open space on the street was originally the front yard of their house, with a courtyard wall. Later, the courtyard wall was demolished, and this front yard became a venue for activities and meetings.

In order to make his words meaningful when he went to see Li Lao's son tomorrow, Han Li not only asked Hao Hongmin to tell him the situation of the house in detail, but also carefully observed the surrounding situation. Only after he had a clear idea in mind did he take Hao Hongmin away.

Next, Han Li rode his bike and Hao Hongmin showed the way. They went to Nanjing Road for a while, but were soon defeated by the constant flow of people there.

This squeeze made Han Li lose interest in these famous places, so the two ran to the Bund.

The situation on the Bund was still good, because the locals of Shanghai only came here in the morning and evening for exercise. There were only a few foreign tourists on the Bund during the day, which made it very empty during the day.

Across the Huangpu River is Pudong, which is a very famous place in the future, an intercontinental financial center. I was curious and asked Hao Hongmin.

"What's the situation on the other side of the river now?"

"I haven't been to the other side either, but I heard that there aren't many decent houses there, and the roads are all muddy. When there's a storm, every household there will start flooding.

In some places, the water is as deep as the thighs or waist. It's said that there was a man there who drank too much during a banquet one day and slept at home. It happened to rain heavily. When he woke up, the bed board at home was about to float into the Huangpu River. If he woke up a little later, he might have become a different story."

Han Li and Hao Hongmin strolled on the Bund for a while, and it was already late after asking someone to take a few photos.

The two found a restaurant near the Bund to eat, but what Han Li didn't expect was that the prices of tourist attractions were a little more expensive.

Because the same white-cut chicken cost 1.5 yuan at Dexing Pavilion, but it cost 1.7 yuan on the Bund, and other dishes were also two cents more expensive.

Hao Hongmin also saw the prices on the menu and immediately pulled Han Li away.

However, Han Li saw that there was juice for sale here, so he didn't care about the few dollars, and the two of them had a meal here.

The taste of the food was similar, at least Han Li, an outsider, couldn't taste the difference, but the juice mixed with essence really disappointed him.

After dinner, Han Li took Hao Hongmin back all the way, declined Hao Jingshi's invitation, left the bicycle and walked out of the alley.

This time, Han Li didn't go directly to the hotel, but found a bathhouse to take a bath. He had been traveling for several days, and he felt uncomfortable if he didn't take a bath.

At this time, Hao Jingshi was taking her daughter to class
