Uncle Jiu's Senior Brother

Chapter 5 Eating Western Food

Uncle Jiu and Lu Li were walking on the street, and there were voices of greeting everywhere. Uncle Jiu had dressed up for the whole morning to drink foreign tea. He wore a new set of clothes and combed his hair. His whole temperament was different. However, he saw that Lu Li was still wearing the white gown and black cloth shoes, and he showed a look of disdain.

"Good morning, Uncle Jiu. You're out again. A-Li has become more handsome again."

"Hello, Uncle Nine."

Uncle Jiu and Lu Li have been in Renjia Town for ten years, and the whole town knows Uncle Jiu and his apprentice Lu Li.

Arriving at the western restaurant, Lu Li opened the door and said to the waiter, "Master Ren has reserved a seat."

The waiter listened to the master and took the two of them upstairs with a smile.

Seeing Uncle Jiu and the other man, Master Ren immediately stood up and greeted them: "Uncle Jiu is here, and A-Li is here too."

Master Ren was even happier to see Lu Li. Ever since he helped Boss Huang catch ghosts last time, everyone in Renjia Town knew that Lu Li was very capable and not inferior to Uncle Jiu. Uncle Jiu would often let Lu Li do things on his own when he was busy.

Lu Li also smiled and said, "I am here with my master today to have a meal with Master Ren. Please don't mind, Master Ren."

"How can this be strange? I am so happy that A-Li can come." Master Ren really likes Lu Li, the young and handsome Taoist priest.

As soon as he led the man to sit down, Uncle Jiu asked, "I heard that your daughter has returned from the provincial capital, why don't you invite her to come with you?"

Master Ren replied helplessly: "This girl just learned how to put on makeup, and she went around teaching people as soon as she came back."

Uncle Jiu nodded, not quite understanding.

"This girl is here" Master Ren looked back

Lu Li was also curious about what the Miss Ren in the movie looked like in real life, and then he saw a girl about 17 or 18 years old wearing a pink Western dress walking towards him. She had beautiful features and was indeed a beauty.

I took one look and then stopped paying attention. After all, there are all kinds of beauties in the modern world. If I look at her again, it would be bad to attract her attention.

"Dad!" Ren Tingting walked over and called out, looking at Lu Li and the others curiously.

"Call me Uncle Nine"

"Uncle Nine" called out crisply.

Master Ren pointed at Lu Li and said, "This guy is Uncle Jiu's apprentice, and he is also very capable. His name is Lu Li, and you can call him Brother Lu."

Ren Tingting looked at Lu Li and called out obediently, "Brother Lu."

Lu Li looked at Master Ren helplessly, then stood up and said, "Miss Ren..."

Lu Li did not have much contact with Master Ren, but since they knew that Lu Li was a man of real ability, the gentry in Renjia Town all respected Lu Li very much. The older generation was like this. In this world full of ghosts and monsters, who knew when they would need to ask the other party for help. His meeting with Miss Ren was also very ordinary, and they did not develop a good impression of each other at the first sight.

At this time, Master Ren asked, "Uncle Jiu, Ah Li, what would you like to drink?"

Uncle Jiu took the menu from the waiter and took a look. It was all in foreign languages ​​and he didn't recognize a single word. He felt a little panicked.

Lu Li smiled secretly: "I want a cup of coffee." Then he looked at Uncle Jiu and said: "Master, do you want to try the coffee? It tastes good."

Uncle Jiu had never drunk any coffee before, but he pretended to be knowledgeable and said calmly, "Well, I'll have a cup of coffee, just like you."

After seeing Lu Li and the others finish ordering, Ren Tingting said, "I want a cup of coffee."

When Master Ren saw that everyone had finished ordering, he said to the attendant, "Four cups of coffee then, Uncle Jiu, what else would you like to eat?"

It turns out that in the movie, Uncle Jiu lost a life because of an egg tart, but to be honest, for Western food, Lu Li felt that it was not as good as the Xiaolongbao on the street.

But Lu Li was polite. He had practiced boxing for a long time in the morning and was already hungry. Besides, Ren Fa was not short of money. He looked at the menu and whispered to Uncle Jiu beside him, "Master, what do you want to eat?"

Uncle Jiu glanced at the menu and said calmly, "I'm fine with anything. I can eat anything."

Lu Li smiled in his heart. He had to give his master enough face when he was away from home, so he said to the servant: "Two servings of chicken pasta with pesto sauce, two fried eggs, and two servings of tiramisu for dessert." Lu Li did not order any steak or anything like that. A cultivator could not eat beef, so he just wanted to have one meal to fill him up.

The attendant was stunned. This was the first time he had seen someone who could order so well. Although Renjia Town was prosperous, the people who came were all wealthy people. They would eat whatever they were introduced to. This was the first time he had seen someone who could order so well.

Mr. Ren and his daughter also looked over. I guess they had the same idea as the waiter.

Lu Li smiled faintly: "Master Ren, we have ordered, what would you like to eat?"

Mr. Ren smiled helplessly and said to the waiter: "We are the same"

In his previous life, Lu Li had also eaten Western food. During his college vacation, his first job to earn a living was to work as a waiter in a Western restaurant. If you ordered bread, you couldn't order pasta, just like if we eat steamed buns as our staple food, we can't eat rice. You can order a steak for the main course, but considering Uncle Jiu, who is not used to knives and forks, forget it.

The dishes were all served, and Lu Li started eating first. Uncle Jiu followed suit but didn't make a fool of himself. When they were almost done eating, Master Ren started talking about business: "Uncle Jiu, regarding the reburial of my father, have you picked a date?"

Uncle Jiu took a sip of coffee but still felt uncomfortable: "Master Ren, I think you should think about it. It's better to stay still than to act on this matter."

Master Ren shook his head and said, "I have thought it through. The Feng Shui master said that the coffin must be moved after 20 years. This will be good for the Ren family."

Seeing that Master Ren insisted, Uncle Jiu could only reply, "In that case, we will start digging and exhuming the coffin in three days."

"So what should we prepare?"

Lu Li didn't say anything during the whole process, but ate his dessert. With the chef there, nothing could go wrong. Ren Tingting kept looking at Lu Li, and was very curious about this man with outstanding temperament. After all, there were too few people who would eat Western food here.

"Brother Lu, do you understand Western language?"

Nodded and said "I understand a little bit"

Ren Tingting's eyes lit up. Nowadays, knowing foreign languages ​​is considered a high-end person.

"Then can you teach me foreign language?"

"Forget it, I don't have time, and I'm about to go out traveling." Lu Li is not interested in girls now. My goal is to become an immortal. It's hard for me to take care of Uncle Jiu, so how can I have the ability to take care of a girl.

Ren Tingting didn't bother to ask, "Brother Lu, how can you be a Taoist priest if you know foreign languages? Isn't this just a lie?"

Lu Li finished the dessert in his hand, wiped his hands and asked, "Do you think these are lies? Did the teachers say that when you were studying in the provincial capital?"

"Yes"

"Those teachers are exposed to Western education, right?"

"Yes, because Western things are advanced," Ren Tingting nodded in response.

"If these are lies, then why do they believe in God? They build churches, believe in God, spread the word about vampires, and worship Jesus. We believe in gods and go to temples to burn incense, which is a lie. Isn't this double standard?"

Ren Tingting was stunned for a moment when she heard this. Yes, if the gods and Feng Shui are lies, then isn’t God a lie too?

Lu Li shook his head. There were monsters and demons in this era, but people still regarded Western things as advanced. However, they could not do without their ancestors' things. The main reason was that Westerners did not know anything about catching ghosts and zombies. It was okay for them to deal with vampires, but Western gods could not control the East.

After Uncle Jiu and Master Ren finished discussing the matter, everyone dispersed. After they separated, Uncle Jiu took Lu Li back to the charity cemetery.
