Nothing to do this morning,
Tell me about my first trip to Vietnam and being pitted for drinking.
This thing is very impressive, ah,
Since that time,
Has always been afraid of encountering such patriotic Vietnamese angry youth in Vietnam,
As a result, I had a shadow in my heart for a long time.
Until I met a few Chinese who were more cattle in Hanoi,
And they drank a few times,
See the way they usually handle things,
Then my guts began to slowly come back.
This matter will be said later if there is a chance,
Today I'll talk about the fact that I was forced to drink first.
I was there at that time.
I can't understand a word of Vietnamese,
Nor will it be said,
Just followed my friends over to Vietnam to play.
My friend's mom is Vietnamese,
As mentioned above, the friend who took me through Dongxing.
That time I played in Vietnam for more than half a month.
The incident was taking place in Hanoi.
My friend took me to Hanoi that day to play,
The first time I went to Hanoi,
Of course, to go to Hanoi's famous attractions also to see the Sword Lake.
At that time, although I read a lot of raiders on the Internet,
But there is no concept at all,
Many ancient buildings in Vietnam,
Especially the temples, the arches, etc.
All Chinese and well kept.
So much so that I arrived at Hoan Kiem Lake,
After seeing the Jade Mountain Ancestral Hall, I felt super surprised.
Well, here are a few pictures of Huanjian Lake for everyone
Hanoi, Hoan Kiem Lake, Jade Mountain Ancestral Hall
Hanoi, Hoan Kiem Lake, temples in the lake
Speaking of the Jade Mountain Ancestral Hall,
By the way,
There is a bridge inside to walk to the middle island,
That island is called Turtle Island?
Forget, don't care about this little detail.
You have to go into that island for a ticket.
Forget how much money it is,
It doesn't seem expensive,
30 thousand or how many people, anyway is not expensive.
There is a temple above the island with a large turtle specimen.
Hanoi, Hoan Kiem Lake, a specimen of a large turtle inside a temple in the lake
That's it.
In Vietnamese legend,
This turtle god is in that lake shouting the sword of a certain king of Vietnam to return the god of heaven,
Then the lake was renamed Hoan Kiem Lake.
The story of Huanjian Lake is still very long if it is said,
I'll have a chance to talk about it later.
Now back to the fact that I was pitted for drinking.
That day, I went to Hoan Kiem Lake with my friends to play,
See chinese characters everywhere,
And those couplets are still very neat, flat and symbiotic, and the meaning of the words is very symmetrical,
Even some couplets can be said to be good couplets.
I was a little excited.
When I go to my friend's friend Hanoi's house with a friend at night for dinner,
The excitement in my heart has not calmed for a long time.
Vietnamese people are very warm to their guests,
There is usually wine.
Before that time to Hanoi,
I've learned it at my friend's Bakery house,
I went to the relatives of my friends to eat, and they all had wine.
Eat at a friend's place in Hanoi,
I was also ready for a drink.
Because I'm a foreigner,
A friend of a friend called several more friends over for dinner.
Feel like Vietnamese people are really welcoming and hospitable if they are good to you.
I remember that it was about 6 people eating at that time.
Forgot, there are pictures, wait and find the pictures to see.
Bought several bottles of sake, sake?
Anyway, I still call it sake,
The degree is not high, and there is still half a bottle at home,
Wait a picture to come up.
At first, a few of us chatted over dinner and drank.
I don't speak Vietnamese,
It's all translated by my friend.
Some of those friends would simply Chinese,
We were having a lot of fun.
The wine was almost drunk.
Anyway, whoever came to toast at that time, I was accompanied.
Foreigners, I can't always lose the prestige of Chinese abroad, right?
Drink until I feel like I've got 7 or 8,
Then came a friend again.
My friend told me,
The friend who just came was a driver in Samsung,
After work late, I deliberately rushed from Bac Ninh.
I feel
Oh, this is enough of a friend, enough of a brother.
Immediately hand over the cup and drink it.
(I didn't expect that it was this new friend who forced me to drink)
After touching the first cup, we drank and talked,
I also forget what I was talking about at that time.
The turning point of events came when I said a word at the time.
I remember I was a little happy.
Want to bring the friendship between China and Vietnam closer,
Just say, "We in China and Vietnam used to come as a family."
I forgot what the specific sentence was,
That's probably what it means.
I'm talking about Chinese,
My friend translated it for me.
I mean,
I saw so many Chinese in Hoan Kiem Lake,
My heart is still excited,
Thinking of taking this opportunity,
Bring us closer together.
Who knew I was so casual about it.
The friend who was a driver in Samsung was immediately unhappy.
I reckon he understands that
I want to include Vietnam in China's territory,
It means to be a family.
How can I have so much power?
I can fill my stomach,
I'm happy not to pull the country back, I'm proud, I'm proud.
The Vietnamese friend who worked as a driver at Samsung really looked up to me.
The friend of the Samsung driver said I said I said the wrong thing,
Saying that Vietnam and China are in the Same Asia section,
It's normal to have crossovers in culture.
I said the wrong thing and wanted a bottle.
My friend immediately helped me explain.
The explanation is invalid.
The one who worked as a driver at Samsung,
That job is really good among Vietnamese.
It's just that now,
It is still much better than most ordinary Vietnamese people.
No way
He feels good,
I'm new here,
And I thought I couldn't afford to lose.
Isn't it just a bottle of sake?
Twenty degrees, I'm afraid of something.
So I picked up the newly opened bottle that I handed over and grunted and drank it.
After drinking,
There was applause all around,
My head started to sink a little.
I braced myself and touched the three-star driver again.
Casually pay a gift,
I'm sorry to say I don't know the customs here.
I said I'm sorry,
The Samsung driver was really embarrassed.
At first he might have been joking about asking me for a bottle of wine.
I pushed a few times,
My friend helped me say a lot of things,
I can't push it anymore,
When I'm really done drinking,
That Samsung friend was deliberately a little embarrassed too.
Anyway, after I finished drinking that bottle of wine,
I had another drink with the Samsung driver.
The Samsung driver said if I drank too much,
Can take a break.
My friend translated it with me,
I said:
Well, I'll take a break.
Then just lay down next to it.
(Vietnam here like to sit on the floor, to the side of a lie, very convenient, wait I will find the picture for everyone to see, everyone will understand)
Vietnamese families eat together and like to sit on the floor
The next day my friend told me,
That three-star driver didn't drink well,
After I lay down,
He drank a few more drinks and couldn't drink it.
I knew that,
I was desperate to drink three drinks with him.
Haha, this is all an afterthought.
This is not the biggest obstacle to the shadow in my heart,
This is just a primer.
Let me know,
It turns out that Vietnam also has angry youth.
Later back to my friend's hometown of Bac Ninh,
I have Vietnamese friends who comfort me,
China has fought with Vietnam in the past.
But that was before.
It's none of our business,
Now we are all friends.
Holy
Leaning on, leaning on,
What consolation is this?
You don't say I'm not afraid,
You say,
I was terrified.
That's it
At that time, the shadow of the heart was buried.
