Chapter 217, Outside the Tavern 2

"Wo Ke, you are so lucky." Mr. Niu quickly walked up to grandma and stood with her legs down, lowering her head and singing.

(oke) Wo Kefu is the wrong term for aunt and uncle in Manchu.

And whether the etiquette performed by Lord Niu is the standard Manchu greeting ritual, also known as greeting Xiaoan.

After the Revolution of 1911, the Manchu nationality was renamed Manchu. The Manchu people respected their elders and paid attention to etiquette. When they met their elders on the road, they would bow slightly to the side and bow their legs in salute, waiting for the elders to pass by before proceeding.

Young and middle-aged people also ask for salutes and greetings when they meet their elders. When relatives and friends meet, in addition to holding hands and greetings, some people also hug their waists and greet each other. The kowtow ceremony is common in the east class and the junior class, and the junior class and the elder class.

.To express respect, service, supplication, or to pay New Year greetings during the Spring Festival, kowtow is performed. When saluting, first take off your hat, kneel on your left knee, then kneel on your right knee, flick your horse hoof sleeves, put your legs on the ground, and kowtow three times. This is

The custom has been around since the founding of Jurchen.

Men have three kinds of etiquette: "say hello", "beat Qian'er" and "kowtow". Women also have "squatting ceremony" and "lucky ceremony".

Seeing Mr. Niu doing what he was doing, he asked Grandma Anli if he was doing it. He was stunned for a moment, and then started to look at Mr. Niu.

After a while, grandma tentatively said, "I don't like calves."

Mr. Niu became a little excited when he heard his grandma call him "Calf".

He grabbed grandma's leg and said excitedly: "Auntie, he is a calf."

"How many years have we not seen each other?" Jiang Yan asked Master Niu to his side. Grandma asked.

"Can we not see each other for thirteen years since 1943?"

Grandma was filled with emotion when she heard what Master Niu said.

"I haven't seen you for thirteen years, it's been a long time."

"Auntie, in 1943, he heard that brother Chengqing joined the government army for incarceration. He was afraid that something would happen and he went to see me. Unexpectedly, my family was already empty."

"Hey! It's true that both Chengqing and Yanzi joined the government army. They were afraid that Xiao Yuezi in Sijiu City would take revenge on him, so they arranged for him to be sent to other places. He would not return until Xiao Yuezi surrendered.

To your own home.”

Mr. Niu stopped to hear what Grandma said, slapped his thigh, and said angrily, "He thought something bad happened to you too, and he was very sad for a long time! Where are Aunt Chengqing and Yanzi?"

Grandma felt depressed when she heard Master Niu asking about his two children.

"In 1944, he died in the battles of Zhongtiao Mountain and Changsha respectively."

Master Niu also became silent when he heard what grandma said.

At that time, I often played with my uncle. When I had time, my uncle was very good at taking care of Chengqing and Yanzi, and the relationship between them was quite good.

Now that he closed his eyes, he could recall the faces of the two people, and he couldn't bear to hear that the two people died in Xiao Yuezi's arms.

"That damn little Tsukiko."

Seeing Master Niu like that, grandma patted Master Niu's leg.

"Okay, it's all over. Neither of them are heroes. He is proud of him. There is a country and a country. Only when there is a country, there is a family."

When Master Niu heard what Grandma said, he gave her a thumbs up.

"Auntie, you are of a high level. Auntie, you are the only one who is not famous. How come Cai Quanwu and Xu Huizhen have become relatives in our family?"

After Mr. Niu praised his grandma, he asked her a question.

Seeing Mr. Niu looking a little confused, grandma looked at him and laughed.

After laughing, he said, "I remember the cook from their house very well."

"Remember! His Shandong cuisine and Sichuan cuisine are quite good, and some of his Tan cuisine are very good. Just thinking about it makes my mouth water."

"He is the son of the previous cook. His father and Cai Quan are brothers." Grandma pointed at He Yuzhu and spoke.

Then he pointed at Jiang Yan, who was walking next to him.

"The grandson he denies is named Jiang Yan. He is now working as an engineer in a steel rolling mill and went to SL to study."

Grandma's face was full of pride when she said that, as if she was showing off her good stuff.

After introducing Jiang Yan, grandma pointed to He Yuzhu and Xu Damao who were walking at another table and said: "They also call him grandma, and he also recognizes them as his grandchildren. They are all working in the steel rolling mill and the automobile factory.

Work."

When grandma said that, Mr. Niu also became red.

"What he said is, is love real?"

Mr. Bu Nao Niu is also a person who often hangs out in Sijiu City. He can tell where he is going. His grandson is also different. My aunt probably values ​​Jiang Yan the most.

Jiang Yan, who was walking there, felt incredible when he looked at Mr. Niu. The world was really small, and after walking around, he realized that they were all related!

Bu Nao Jiang Yan did not have any ill intentions when he wronged Mr. Niu. Previously, when Jiang Yan watched the TV series "The Little Woman from Zhengyangmen East", he had a very favorable impression of Mr. Niu.

In addition to drinking a little wine, Mr. Niu usually walks birds and fights crickets every month, which is a typical behavior of a disciple of the Eight Banners. But he is a very face-conscious person, and he is also very loyal, a typical behavior of an old Sijiucheng person.

Pai, unlike Teacher Xu and Fan Jinyou who go around making Tiao Zijing do evil things.

"Master Niu, he respects me." After Jiang Yan said that, he picked up the wine bottle and poured a glass for Master Niu.

"No, man, he has it himself." After Mr. Niu said this, he said hello to He Yumei, who was at the counter, and He Yumei brought over what he had ordered.

The old lady was slightly angry when she saw what Mr. Niu had ordered.

"What's the matter, I don't care about his wine! Otherwise, his grandson doesn't deserve to pour me wine!"

Stopping at what Grandma said, Mr. Niu smiled and said, "Auntie, no, he didn't mean that. It's too late for our children to toast him and leave happily! Then it would have been wasted if we didn't drink it if we ordered it before.

"

"Yes, yes, if Mavericks said the wrong thing, I will punish myself with a drink."

When Jiang Yan heard what Master Niu said, he quickly gave him a drink and drank with him. Then he filled the wine glass that Master Niu had placed with a look.

"Men, we are all our own people. It's up to my aunt to decide whether we are real relatives. From now on, we can't be called father or uncle. Do you understand?"

"I understand, Uncle Niu, he respects me." Jiang Yan raised his wine glass and gave it to Master Niu to touch.

After Jiang Yan put the wine glass eastward, Master Niu asked Jiang Yan.

"I heard from my aunt that I am an engineer at a steel rolling mill. I don't know which steel rolling mill I am."

"Just the third rolling mill outside Dongzhimen, also called the Red Star Rolling Mill."

"Oh! That's awesome! Has he heard that there are probably about 10,000 workers in the Hongxing Steel Rolling Mill now? I heard a while ago that he was recruiting people! Many children in their alley signed up.

Well, there aren't many people in the city. The assessment is very strict. Being an engineer in such a big factory is a very difficult thing. I went to study at Big Brother's place, so I look down on it even more.

"Please, if his children are half as promising as mine, he will wake up laughing in his dreams."

Jiang Yan stopped at Niu Ye's fat bucket, his mind moved, and he asked: "Uncle Niu, I wonder where your two brothers are working."

Jiang Yan was chatting with Grandma Niu just now, and Jiang Yan heard that Master Niu had two boys in his family, both of whom were older than Jiang Yan.

From watching Mr. Niu's role, we know that his tutor is very good. From the later TV series, we can see that if the two of them don't have good jobs, Jiang Yan doesn't mind helping them.

Is Mr. Niu very good at antiques? If you have a good relationship with him, it will definitely be useful later.
