Han Qi didn't order any big dishes, so the food was served very quickly.
Especially the tofu curd.
As soon as Han Qi took out her mobile phone after ordering, the aunt in the store came up with a small bowl.
This bowl is quite small, just like the kind of bowl you usually eat at home.
A rice bowl is not a sea bowl, and some people eating from a washbasin cannot be said to be sparse or ordinary.
Han Qi moved the dinner bowl in front of his eyes and studied the ingredients inside with a spoon. He was from Tianfu, where soy sauce, chili peppers, dried peas, etc. were added to the tofu puffs.
The tofu puffs they served looked similar, except that there were no peas. It contained soy sauce, sesame oil, sesame seeds, chili pepper, salt... everything, you just need to mix it with a spoon and it's ready to eat.
The taste is okay, it tastes salty and spicy.
Then Aunt Yi served Han Qi beef patties, steamed buns, and potato pancakes. The beef patties were somewhat similar to Tibetan beef patties, but the dough was thicker and there was more beef filling. It was even okay to call it a roujiamo.
After all the dishes were served, the boss enthusiastically brought a cup of hot milk to Han Qi: "Little brother, eat slowly. The jar over there is filled with milk. After you drink it, you can just go home and refill it. It's free.
"
"Thank you, uncle and aunt."
This shop is probably a mom-and-pop shop, run by two Mongolian couples in their fifties. They were cooking for customers before, but now they are all done. The male boss also came out to sit and rest, chatting with an old customer.
Han Qi is very conspicuous in this store. It is not because of his clothes. His skin does not look like a Mongolian, and he rides such a beautiful horse.
This place is very close to Hulunbuir, and they often see mainlanders, but they have never seen the mainlanders who came here on horseback. Today is an eye-opener.
And a horse like this would cost at least two to three million, right?
His eyes are firm and his hair is white without any stain.
It's still the kind of bright and luminous white, not the grayish white of older people's hair.
The boss is a horse lover. After looking at it several times, he asked Han Qi: "Brother, did you buy this horse?"
"It's for rent. The boss isn't planning to sell it." Han Qi took another bite of the beef patty and said, "It would be great if I could buy it. I like it very much."
"Isn't there anyone who wouldn't like her beauty?" the boss sighed.
An old customer who knew him well said with a smile: "I like it, but you can't afford it."
This boss was a poor Mongolian. His family had no land, but he was good at cooking, so he opened a restaurant in this town.
The old customer continued to expose his shortcomings and said to Han Qi: "When this guy got married, his wife gave him a dozen sheep as a gift."
The aunt looked at the phone and said after hearing this sentence: "That's because I love him."
Hearing them chatting about this topic, Han Qi became a little curious about Mongolian people's concept of marriage. He was a little curious to know that they are all in the same country. Do Mongolians also need betrothal gifts when they get married?
Han Qi didn't know about other areas, but half of the Tianfu area was involved in a competition for betrothal gifts.
When the girl next door got married, the man gave her a gift of 100,000 yuan, so our family got 160,000 yuan.
Why not 110,000?
Good things come in pairs. It would be a good thing if I didn't ask you for 200,000 yuan.
Han Qi himself has never experienced this kind of thing. Wang Zheng said this when chatting with Wang Zheng. Wang Zheng’s family is from Rongcheng. There are several houses in the first and second ring roads. There are friends and relatives around the community, and they sometimes compare themselves with each other.
It's never finished once you get up.
After swallowing what he was eating, Han Qi asked directly: "Brother, eldest sister, I want to ask if we are getting married here. Do we need a bride price?"
"How to say the bride price..." the landlady thought with a frown.
The customer who spoke before did some research and said: "In Mongolia, most places do not have the custom of bride price. It has been abandoned for many years. I am from Xilin Gol, and my grandfather has never confiscated the custom of bride price there.
.”
Han Qi looked at his age and estimated that he was about forty years old.
Does that mean there was no need for betrothal gifts when the People’s Republic of China was first founded?
He ate the noodles, looked at Han Qi and continued:
"It is still available in some places, but it is becoming less and less. Unlike many cities, many people here regard betrothal gifts as a backward habit. When getting married, if the woman takes the initiative to ask for betrothal gifts, she will be considered greedy for money.
, country people, or their family members do not have higher education, feudal ideas or something like that.”
"Ah? Is there such a thing?" Han Qi was shocked.
Wouldn't it be great to get married here?
"What I'm talking about is my personal life experience, and it cannot represent the entire Mongolia."
Han Qi nodded and said, "What preparations are needed for marriage?"
"Let the man pay for a house, and the woman buy a car or renovate a house and sell furniture. If there are difficulties, the other party can tell me something. I say, young man, you ask so many questions, do you like a girl from somewhere on our grassland?"
"...Isn't that true?"
The man laughed and said, "You are so good-looking. If you want to settle down on the grassland, you will need a house and a car. It won't be a problem to support you with a herd of cattle and sheep."
"Thank you for the compliment, brother." Han Qi also said with a smile.
But when I think about it, it’s really good.
If you don't have a system and don't know Ingrid or the others, maybe you can live and work here after graduation. The air is good, the view is wide, you can raise many animals at home, and marrying a wife is not particularly troublesome.
Han Qi touched his chin and thought about his appearance.
Hmm... it shouldn't be a problem.
It seems that being handsome has some benefits.
It's a pity that there is just one more system.
After eating, Han Qi walked around the town twice, took two videos, and also gave Xiaobai some nutritious meals. Those were given by Burigood before, but Han Qi didn't feel much. Now he spends his own money
After buying it, I realized that the food that horses eat is more expensive than the food that humans eat.
It’s okay not to eat. Horses are herbivores. They will certainly not starve to death on the grassland, but they won’t be able to maintain their condition.
You don't give athletes meat and nutritious meals, but you still want them to get results. Isn't this nonsense?
Han Qi carried a bucket to feed Xiaobai, touched her face with his hand and said, "Eat more and grow stronger."
Han Qi stayed in Yiminhe Town for a total of three hours, eating, shopping, buying spare supplies, supplementing food, and drinking water. Then he left Yiminhe Town in the afternoon and continued walking forward.
After being reminded by others, Han Qi no longer walked along the river, but along the train tracks.
At least the train track along this section is next to the grassland, so there is no problem in riding a horse. If you encounter mountains ahead, let’s talk about it. Han Qi looked at the map and saw that there were no particularly tall peaks nearby, so just a short detour would be enough.
After walking like this for more than ten days, Han Qi realized how difficult his original idea was.
He hasn't even arrived in Xilin Gol city yet.
Originally, he wanted to go to the Xing'an League, but Han Qi felt that if he went to the Xing'an League for a few days, he might not be in the mood to continue riding. So Han Qi chose Xilingol, the horse-riding capital of China, as his destination.
Although riding a horse is fast, it is also highly uncertain.
It took nearly a month for Han Qi to travel from Hulunbuir to Xilingol purely by horseback.
In a month, Han Qi's figure has not changed much, but his skin has changed a lot. And because he slept on the grassland for several days in a row, it was inconvenient to take a bath. Han Qi now looks rather decadent.
