After the founding of New China, bathhouses became a must-go place for the people of Forty-Nine City in Hutongs, just like non-staple food stores.
Because the accommodation conditions at home were very tight at this time, most of them were only one room and half a kang, so how could there be a place to take a bath?
At that time, there were many bathhouses in the streets and alleys of Sijiu City, but only Tsinghuachi was the only one with the same reputation as Tongrentang and Quanjude.
Tsinghua Pool has such a great reputation because of its unique skill - pedicure.
In the late 1950s, Qinghuachi established the first podiatry treatment room in the city and even in the country. It transformed from simple pedicure to podiatry treatment, and can treat various foot diseases such as foot pads, onychomycosis, corns, monkeys, and gallbladder. Patients have been relieved of their ailments by combining modern medical techniques such as Western medicine detoxification, injections, excisions, hemostasis, bandaging, acupuncture, etc. with traditional treatment techniques, and have achieved remarkable results in treating foot problems.
Therefore, young and old men in the capital who have something wrong with their feet usually come to Qinghua Lake.
One of them is the brand name of Qinghuachi, and the other is the pedicure master of Qinghuachi.
Chu Heng was a frequent visitor to Qinghua Pool, but there was nothing wrong with his feet. He went there just to have his feet pinched, although most of the foot pinchers were big and thick men, far from gentle and gentle. There's nothing you can do if the boneless young ladies are so rare. If you want to see a female master in the bathhouse at this time, it's harder than getting the big hair and the two hairs to stop fighting.
So he could only settle for the next best thing.
And that's it, he had to lie and say that his feet hurt before anyone would pinch his feet!
"Tu tu tu tu!"
There were not many people on the road today, so Volga sped along and arrived at the place in less than twenty minutes.
“This place is so comfortable!”
Chu Heng parked the car on the side of the road and looked at the historic bathhouse not far away from the car window. He felt inexplicably at home. His body and mind felt indescribably relaxed. It was as if all the worries in his heart disappeared in an instant. .
Ya Le took out a small box of tea leaves from the warehouse, opened the door and got out of the car, and slipped into the Qinghua Pond with a puff of smoke.
First, I soaked in the pool for a while, then asked the master to give me a bath. Then I ran to the rest area to make a pot of tea. While I found the pedicure master to squeeze my feet, I talked to a few strangers around me. The old man talked nonsense and when he got tired of waiting, he lay down on the chair and slept for a while. Soon the whole morning was wasted.
Noon.
Chu Heng, who was full of sleep, lazily sat up from the recliner in the bathhouse, smacked his lips and touched his shriveled belly. After taking a moment to calm down, he slowly got down from the recliner with his tea box and washed his face to refresh himself. After feeling refreshed, I went outside to put on my clothes and leave.
Back to the car.
Ya lay on the steering wheel again and began to be in a daze, thinking about where to go to spend the afternoon.
There has been no news from Du San, so there is no need to go to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs now, and the place is in a mess, and he doesn't want to go back.
fishing?
In this cold winter, if you go to the ice cave at the end of the day, you will suffer a lot!
Go to a trust store to find something missing?
He has seen too many good things, and now he can no longer look down on those trivial things, and they are too much of a waste of time.
Although he had also bought azure glaze in a trust store, the chance was not high after all. He had only picked up a big leak once after traveling so long.
】
So instead of wasting time there, it's better to soak in the bathhouse for a while.
"Forget it, let's find a place to eat first."
Chu Heng shook his head, started the car and left, preparing to go to Casserole House to find a meal.
There's nothing wrong with it, it's just looking for mistakes.
Although no one invited him there, and he didn't know who was eating there, he could guarantee that as long as he went there, he would definitely meet someone he knew!
Xiao Mengchang from Sijiucheng is so confident!
Of course, with his worth, he is not short of money for food. The reason why he wants to pay for food is simply because he doesn't want to eat alone.
…
Clay House is not far from Qinghua Pond. Chu Heng drove for more than ten minutes and arrived at the place.
It's noon now, the busiest time for restaurant business.
Chu Heng entered the room and took a look. Good guy, he didn't even find an empty table. The place was full of human heads, and all kinds of sounds were mixed together, making it seem like a commotion.
The guy glanced around the room and quickly spotted two tables of familiar people.
At one of the tables was Fang Yuchun. There had been many interactions between the two of them, so there was no need to elaborate on their relationship. They were like father and son.
At the other table was a friend he met in the compound. He had a pretty good relationship with him and they often played together before.
"Chu Heng?"
Even though Chu Heng took the initiative to go over, Fang Yuchun discovered him by himself. After all, it was hard not to notice someone as big as him poking at the door!
have to!
Since you spoke first, I will eat you today.
Chu Heng smiled and waved to Fang Yuchun, who had already stood up. He took the cigarette he handed over and casually chatted: "What a coincidence today, isn't your unit busy?" ? Why are you here at this restaurant at noon?"
"Hey, these few old friends haven't seen each other for a long time, so we made an appointment to get together today." Fang Yuchun smiled and took out a lighter to light a cigarette for him. He glanced behind him and asked doubtfully: "What are you doing?" Came here alone? Did you make an appointment?"
"Hey, I just went to Tsinghua Pool to take a bath. I was hungry at noon. I happened to be walking in from here, so I was going to come over and have a bite."
"That's good, let's have some together. There are no outsiders here. They are all my magnets. I just want to introduce you to them. Let's move around more in the future."
"No, no, you friends are gathering, why should I get involved? I'll find someone to share a table with, and just have some food."
"Tsk, you and I are still seeing each other. Sit down, sit down!"
"You...hey, ok, ok, don't pull it. If you wait a little longer, your clothes will be in tatters. If I don't leave, it won't work."
"That's right, come on, come on, I'll fill it up for you!"
…
In this way, the grandson successfully got a meal. Not only did he save money on the meal, but he also made several new friends worth making friends with.
Fang Yuchun is famous for watching people order food, so he can be allowed to drink with him. How can his identity be simple?
The worst offenders are the workshop directors!
Therefore, his trip could be regarded as killing two birds with one stone.
However, because Fang Yuchun and the others arrived early, Chu Heng joined halfway, and he followed them to drink for less than an hour before the party broke up.
After sending people away.
Chu Heng got back into the car and continued to think about where to go in the afternoon.
As the old saying goes, what do you think about when you are full and warm?
After eating and drinking, this guy naturally couldn't help but think of women.
Ever since, the grandson thought of the passionate foreign lover he had never had time to see since he came back.
Suddenly, Chu Heng's heart felt hot. Without thinking, he got out of the car, ran to the phone booth next to him, and made a call to the Maozi Embassy.
After a while.
He hurried back to the car and drove straight to the embassy district.
