Chapter 56: The Traveler
Mother Li glanced at her son, and complained: "Ouch, just like Yuanyuan spent money today, she didn't hesitate to spend money, son, how much money do you have to earn to spend it for her!"
"Mom, the flowers used to be spent, and I am willing. Let her go in the future, I can't control her. ”
"Son, do you really want to break up with Yuanyuan? just let her spend less in the future, and besides, her father also has money for her to spend. ”
"Mom, it doesn't matter to me what happens to her in the future. It is also her family's business that her family has money. ”
"No, son, how difficult it is for you to start a business alone in Haishi, and your father and I can't help you......"
"Mom, it's okay, you don't have to do anything with my dad, my son can do as much as he can. ”
didn't want to talk about Cui Yuanyuan anymore, so he said: "Let's eat, I'm hungry." I'll steam a few rice dumplings for you to eat later, and see if it's still not the taste of our hometown. ”
When Li's mother heard her son say that he was hungry, she didn't care about saying anything more.
When he heard his son talk about zongzi, he said, "Ouch, where does the zongzi you buy outside now have your own taste? ”
Li Muqi accompanied his parents to eat, steamed zongzi for them, and talked with them while tasting zongzi.
He and his parents usually have a rare opportunity to live together for so long like this time and be able to talk every day.
When he was a child, his parents accompanied him, and now that his parents are older, he will accompany them.
"Mom, tomorrow you have to go to your cousin's place, I won't go, you old men and old women, it's not good for me to go. ”
Dad Li thought for a while: "Okay, if you don't go, you won't go." Just come and have dinner with us in the evening. ”
Li Muqi responded.
The three of them talked for a while before they rested.
The next day was another wonderful Sunday.
On an November day, the clouds are light and the wind is light, and the sky is high and cloudy.
The ancient town of Nanxiang in Jiading is one of the four ancient towns in Haishi.
In 505 A.D., because of the construction of the White Crane Nanxiang Temple, the temple got the name of the ancient town.
Yang Xinyue prefers its other name: Chaxi.
She hadn't been here for years.
It is rare for her and Li Muqi to have such leisure to come out and let off, like a traveler, leisurely stroll around the old street, see the scenery of the old street, eat local snacks, and relax.
The two of them first stopped for a while in front of the sign of the ancient town, the "Twin Towers of the Ancient Town".
The twin towers built in five generations, connected to the two octagonal wells in front of the tower, have gone through thousands of years. I don't know how many stories in the world have been recorded.
It is rare to survive to this day.
Then the two went to Guyi Garden again.
One of the five classical gardens of Haishi. Pavilions, pavilions, stone boats, curved corridors, green buildings, rockeries and strange stones, there are all there, and there is also the artistic conception of classical gardens.
But Yang Xinyue always felt that these gardens in Haishi were a little smaller, not bright and open enough.
In addition to Yu Garden, they are all in the suburbs, and Yang Xinyue also has a rare opportunity to take a good look.
Li Muqi took her hand, accompanied her all the way, and after Yang Xinyue stopped, he hugged her from behind: "Next time we go to Sioux City for a self-drive, I will take you to the gardens of Sioux City to see." ”
Yang Xinyue nodded: "I've watched it more than once." But you want to stay with me, I still want to see it. ”
Li Muqi lowered his head and kissed her: "Tell me wherever you want to go in the future, and I will accompany you." ”
The two of them stood quietly in the garden for a while, until they were hungry, and then they came out to look for xiaolongbao to eat.
The two looked for a well-known old shop on the old street and walked in.
On Sundays, there are a lot of people and the store is very lively.
The two of them ordered a basket of traditional fresh meat dumplings, a basket of signature crab roe dumplings, and a cage of shrimp and fresh meat.
A pot of tea, two bowls of hot and sour soup.
"Can you eat it? There must be eight or nine of them in this cage. Li Xinyue was a little worried, and pressed Li Muqi's hand that still wanted to order.
"It's okay, I'm here. Once in a lifetime. ”
"Don't order it, I can't eat it. I'll be enough for two of the same, don't waste it. ”
"Wife, can't you eat more?"
Yang Xinyue looked at him: "Don't you men like to be thin and tall? ”
"Who says men like tall and skinny? ”
After speaking, he leaned into Yang Xinyue's ear and whispered: "It's soft and easy to touch." ”
Yang Xinyue glanced at him and pushed him away.
This suddenly came over and startled her. More and more shameless.
After the xiaolongbao came up, Li Muqi gave her one first. I didn't move.
"Why do you want to see me make a fool of myself?"
"I'll see how my wife eats, just to learn something. ”
Yang Xinyue didn't believe it: "It's not big, how can you eat it if you put it in your mouth." ”
Li Muqi flattened his mouth: "Wife, you have become bad, you want to burn me and make me ugly." ”
Yang Xinyue ignored him, delicious and panicked.
She holds xiaolongbao in her right hand, holds a spoon in her left hand, bites it open, pours the soup into the spoon, and then slowly drinks the soup in the spoon, and then takes the spoon to scoop the vinegar, puts the xiaolongbao into the spoon and dips it in vinegar before eating.
Xiao long bao without vinegar is soulless.
"Wife, I'm full just by watching you eat, and eating with beautiful women is beautiful. ”
Yang Xinyue glanced at him, how did he find out that he was so poor?
Li Muqi watched her finish eating one before she started.
He is different from Yang Xinyue, he doesn't use a spoon, he first dips it in vinegar, then puts it in his mouth to bite it, sucks the juice, and puts it directly in his mouth.
Yang Xinyue refilled him with a cup of chrysanthemum tea.
Eating xiaolongbao with chrysanthemum tea is the standard and greasy.
Yang Xinyue saw that he ate well, and he also ate a lot today.
"It's so comfortable to eat~ Wife, we'll come back next week to eat. ”
"You can't eat good things often, you have to eat them once in a long time before they are worth savoring. ”
"Crooked. I just want to eat it with my wife and taste it often. ”
Yang Xinyue smiled at him when she heard this, and wiped the corners of her mouth with a tissue.
The two of them were full, and then went to Chaxi Bookstore to listen to the commentary.
The two didn't understand, but they went inside to feel the cultural atmosphere of the old street, listen to the singing, and feel the stories inside......
"Wife, what do you say you have to do when you fall in love?"
The two came out of the bookstore, Li Muqi took Yang Xinyue's hand and walked on the old street, Li Muqi asked her while preventing tourists from hitting her.
Yang Xinyue thought for a while: "We look like we're in love today." ”
Li Muqi squeezed Yang Xinyue's hand: "Wife, I want to talk about a romantic relationship with you." The two of us can't skip a romantic relationship just because we're registered. ”
Yang Xinyue shook his hand: "I don't want to be in love how romantic it is, I always want someone to be there and willing to listen when I want to speak, and when I want to cry, someone around me can provide a shoulder." It's good to have someone by your side. Even just sitting at home and watching the clouds drift around outside the window is romantic. ”
"People who drift in the sea are afraid of loneliness. "Especially the holidays.
Li Muqi grabbed her waist, took her into his arms, and kissed her: "Well, I will be by your side in the future." I don't want much, I just want to wake up and see you every day. ”
Yang Xinyue looked at him fixedly and smiled at him.
Li Muqi also returned her with a warm smile.
"My parents will go back to Haining on Tuesday, will you move me there?"
Yang Xinyue nodded: "Okay." ”
And he said, "Shall we go back to the city now?" and buy some gifts for your grandmother's house to bring home." ”
Li Muqi took another sip of her: "It's good to have a wife, or the wife is thoughtful." ”
The two said yes, so they went to find a car and went back to Haishi.
"Wife, let's come back to eat next time. ”
"Okay. ”
