Owen originally thought there were only the four of them in the evening, but he was wrong. Baleleka let herself go after returning to Russia. She immediately found some of her friends, best friends and best friend's boyfriend, and everyone gathered together.
The dinner was very enjoyable, and the children were taken to Baleleka's father's house by the housekeeper in the afternoon, where they enjoyed the whole house.
At dinner time, her friends began to arrive.
Baleleka greeted him at the door. All the dishes were prepared by the couple. Irving originally wanted to prepare Chinese dishes, such as scrambled eggs with tomatoes, but he didn't do it because he was afraid of stealing the limelight.
"Hello."
"Hello."
New friends kept arriving, and Baleleka introduced them both.
Friends who come usually bring a bottle of red wine as a gift, and there are already several bottles of eaux-de-vie on the table. It seems that Balalaika is prepared not to return drunk.
The dishes are standard Russian style, potato salad, vegetable salad, beef jelly, fried mushrooms, red sausage, pickled cucumbers, and the hot dish is roast beef.
Eating here is a separate meal system. Everyone will put the food on their own plate before eating, but it doesn't matter what you eat at this time. In Russia, the purpose of gathering is just to drink. Anyway, everything you eat is just to pass your tongue.
Eventually I have to spit it out.
Owen looked at the small wine glass in front of him. In Chinese terms, it was about one tael, one glass at a time.
"Cheers~~"
Everyone raised their glasses together and drank it all.
These friends in Baleleka were very enthusiastic. Some of them were acquainted with Bayev, and some of them were meeting for the first time. The people at the table ate, drank, and chatted endlessly.
Because of her pregnancy, Monica didn't need to drink alcohol and could only drink some juice. But Owen didn't get such a good treatment. He drank six cups of one tael in a row. Owen only felt a line of fire going down his throat, and his whole stomach
Everyone is burning, but everyone seems to have just started.
"Let me tell you some news..."
The bearded Ivan told the story vividly: "Russian TV reported that someone found a dying bear and a sleeping drunk in the forest park, both lying on the ground.
Passers-by were surprised and called the police. Later, the drunkard woke up. After questioning, the police officers who arrived learned that the drunken man dreamed of a man wearing a fur coat who kept smiling at him last night. When he got angry, he beat him up.
pause……"
Everyone laughed, and Owen and Monica laughed too. Monica shook her head and said she couldn't believe it, but Owen had heard a lot of jokes about fighting nations in his previous life. What about a Russian aunt chasing a bear with a stick and beating her?
People in other countries keep kittens and puppies, while Russians’ pets are bears.
Although various memes are exaggerated, they also show that Russians are really tough, and they are indeed a nation with vodka flowing in their veins.
Alexei on the other side was not to be outdone and immediately spoke again.
"In the European Cup in France, 200 Russian fans beat up thousands of English fans. The English fans were beaten and fled away. Later, Russian officials stated that Russia is a peace-loving country. We reject all acts of violence, but at the same time they said they did not know about our 200 fans.
How to knock down thousands of England fans..."
Several people laughed again. Owen had also heard about this. The fighting power of the fighting nation should not be underestimated.
"There is a follow-up to this matter. It is said that the English fans threatened to regain their place in subsequent games. As soon as the news came out, there was a scene of 150 Russian girls practicing fighting in the snow in the park. It is said that the Russian fans will not
They are ready to take action themselves, they are ready to send out the Women’s Army directly..."
The whole meal was very enjoyable, with constant laughter and laughter. One bottle after another of the vodka they bought from the supermarket was consumed, and everyone drank more than one bottle. Owen felt like he had drank all the vodka in his life. This kind of
It feels too scary.
His ability to drink is not bad, but he still has to be defeated by these guys who drink vodka instead of water.
To be honest, Baleleka's cooking skills are really average, but compared to Owen, her drinking capacity is even better than that of Ip Man, who can beat him by ten.
The guests and hosts enjoyed the meal so much that if Owen hadn't lived here, he probably wouldn't even be able to get out.
Baleleka's friends acted like nothing was wrong. When they left, everyone patted Owen on the shoulder and warned him sincerely, "You must grow up as soon as possible. If you were like this in the Soviet era, you might not survive a winter and be frozen to death."
Already.
This is not alarmist. Vodka means water of life. In the past, it was really life-saving. I basically relied on it to keep warm in winter.
Owen slept all day the next day, and finally came back to life in the evening. He never wanted to experience this drunken and dreamy feeling again.
Baleleka took Monica out early to go shopping as if nothing was wrong. This woman's fighting power was too strong. Owen looked at Bayev sympathetically. If family status is determined by the amount of alcohol, Bayev
It is estimated that she will have to take on all the housework except having children.
At the same time, Bayev also looked at Irving with the same eyes. The German girl Monica was famous throughout Omega for her beer drinking. The two men who were connected by the same fate looked at each other and both shed tears of sadness.
tears.
On the third day, Baleleka still took Monica to go shopping. They went to the commercial street yesterday and bought a bunch of unique little things, such as matryoshka dolls, but Monica became interested in amber jewelry.
This happened to be Baleleka's interest, and the two made an appointment to do some shopping today.
The amber mine located in Kaliningrad is the largest amber mine in the world. 90% of the world's amber comes from here. The raw materials here are rich and the price is cheap. It is said that there is an Amber Room in the Royal Palace of St. Petersburg, which is known as the "Eighth Wonder of the World"
, the entire house is composed of more than 6 tons of amber and precious jewelry. It was a gift from King William I of Prussia to Peter the Great of Russia.
After the two women left, the two men also made an appointment to go out for a walk today. After a day of recovery, Owen was in full swing, but things didn't go as expected. Just as they were preparing to go out, a guest came to visit.
Bayev had to entertain guests, and Owen had to go out for a walk by himself. He couldn't stay in the house and drink with them.
Owen went out alone, and he didn't drive. He wasn't familiar with the roads here, and driving would be more convenient than taking a taxi.
When he was at Omega, each member was required to master three foreign languages. Russian happened to be one of Owen's three foreign languages, so simple communication was no problem at all.
But instead of taking a taxi, Irving chose to take the subway.
There are only 9 subway stations in Yekaterinburg, covering a total length of 12.7 kilometers, and you can ride anywhere for 5 rubles. The subways here are all built 100 meters deep underground. They are both underground transportation and civil air defense projects. There is nothing strange about the subway, but Owen is open to him.
The underground defense system is of great interest.
There is a standard 1.5-meter-thick electric nuclear explosion-proof gate, and the defense system can also lead directly to the subway tunnel.
These things were all built during the Cold War to prepare for a nuclear war that might come at any time. However, the nuclear war did not happen, and the once glorious empire collapsed.
After visiting the tunnel, it was almost noon, and Owen was ready to find a place to have a meal in a nearby shopping mall.
Then he saw the very familiar KFC. Irving felt a little nostalgic. He walked into KFC. The prices here were more expensive than in the United States, but the difference was that they actually sold beer here.
Irving ordered a set meal, changed the drink to beer, and then found a booth to sit down. Then he felt something between his butt, and then he picked up a mobile phone.
