Chapter Ninety-One: Going to the Appointment

finally appeased Liu Ruyu's heart, this stupid woman always thinks about herself, which makes Liu Feixiang moved, but at this moment Liu Feixiang is thinking about the origin of the old man surnamed Zhao.

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, the weather was sunny. It can be called a rare good weather, although it is a little cold, but Liu Feixiang's heart is really good, Liu Ruyu and his mother went to the neighborhood to pay New Year's greetings, and Liu Feixiang finally found time to go to the appointment.

It can't help but say that it is the best lubricant, although Liu Ruyu's thread is not very good in the morning, but when he returned to his hometown, he was saved under Liu Feixiang's deliberate flattery and hand-eye warmth. Liu Feixiang quickly melted into the arms of people.

Liu Ruyuzi is cold, many times she speaks and acts straightforwardly, she is a touching person, and she doesn't like to think too far about many things, which is not only what Liu Feixiang likes, but also what annoys Liu Feixiang.

Feeling also means that things are generally easy to fool, but it also means that it is more difficult to change things once she decides, and it is even difficult to accept more reasonable opinions.

It only took 20 minutes for Liu Feixiang to go from Jersey Village to the thousand-year-old ginkgo tree in Juguo.

Ju country is located in the west side of Lianhua County, the ginkgo tree of Ju country has always had the first ginkgo tree in the world is located in the Fulai Mountain Scenic Area of Ju country, legend has it that the Eastern Zhou Dynasty and the monarch of Ju country formed an alliance under this tree. The tree is in the center of the front yard of Dinglin Temple in the mountain, the age of the tree is nearly 4000 years, the height of the tree is 26.7 meters, the thickness of the trunk is 15.7 meters, and 8 people can stretch their arms to enclose it. According to experts, the tree is at least 4,000 years old. Covering an area of more than 600 square meters, it is still lush and full of vitality, which can be called the "living fossil" in the biological world. In 1982, UNESCO conducted a special study of the tree and showed its close-up to the world.

Mt. Bulae is not very high, only 298.9 meters above sea level, but it is famous for its 4,000-year-old ginkgo tree. In the scenic area, the three peaks of Fulai Peak, Buddha Peak and Feilai Peak stand together, and the arch is connected to each other, constituting a secluded realm of gathering qi and hiding wind. Dinglin Temple on the mountain was built in the period of the Northern and Southern Dynasties, has a history of more than 1,500 years, Dinglin Temple is the place where Liu Xian, a famous literary and artistic critic in the history of our country, followed in his later years, and has now been listed as "Dongshan Province Key Cultural Relics Protection Unit" by the Dongshan Provincial People's Government, the "School Building" in the temple, which is inscribed by Mr. Guo Moruo in 1962, has now become Liu Xian's life exhibition hall. Mr. Ba Jin, a great writer, once came here to admire the ginkgo trees and worship Liu Xian's former residence.

Liu Feixiang slipped around, and the parking lot next to the square was already full, so he had to take a detour and look for a while before finding a parking spot in a small alley.

When I arrived at the big steamed bun shop next to Donglin Temple, it was also crowded with people, and it was difficult to even get a place to enter.

Liu Feixiang knew that there must be a lot of people on the first day of the Lunar New Year, but he was still a little surprised by such a large flow of people during this year's festival.

The bustling crowd squirmed along the square and the Ziqi Street and Qingniu Street that stretched on both sides of the square, and the shops on both sides of the lights were full of light

From windmills to candy men, from popcorn to dingding candy, from rock sugar gourds to balloons, rows of shops and food stalls, smiling tables of vendors and joyful scenes of children chasing and running, constitute a picture of the Qingming Riverside in the early 21st century.

However, standing at the door of Ju Guoda bun shop, Liu Feixiang knew that if he didn't wait in line for ten minutes, he wouldn't have a seat at all, and the small shop of dozens of square meters had already been stuffed with people, and there was not even a place to put his feet, Liu Feixiang stood at the door and looked around helplessly, fortunately, Uncle Zhao hadn't come yet, or he really wanted to eat this big bun and let Uncle Zhao stand here for ten minutes, and he didn't know if the other party could stand it.

The majestic Dinglin Temple Gate is no different from other Buddhist palace views, but it is very much in the momentum to overlook the taste of the whole square, the two green spaces in the southeast corner and the southwest corner in front of the view become the embellishment of the whole square, the southeast corner is a lush camphor forest, and the southwest corner is a gentle slope composed of irregular yellow kudzu trees and small shrubs, such a rare green space is retained in the city, it is indeed refreshing.

Liu Feixiang stood at the door for about ten minutes, looking at the time had passed nine o'clock, and still did not see the shadow of the old man surnamed Zhao, he was also a little strange, according to the son of the old man surnamed Zhao, it should not be a person who missed the appointment or was late, if he did not come, there must be something special delayed.

Liu Feixiang didn't care too much, anyway, this morning was a rest, and it didn't matter if he waited a little longer.

Zhao Zifeng didn't expect Huang Hua to visit early in the morning, he had to temporarily put aside the idea of going out, but he had some regrets in his heart, it seemed that the hope of going to enjoy the sunshine and ease of the Tongniuguan with the young man surnamed Liu in the morning was shattered.

The conversation with Huang Hua lasted for an hour, as the secretary of the provincial party committee personally visited the door, of course Zhao Zifeng could not be lazy, whether it was from the perspective of work or personal friendship, Zhao Zifeng and Huang Hua were still a little intertwined.

When Huang Hua left Beijing to serve as secretary of the provincial party committee, he made a special trip to visit Zhao Zifeng, who had not yet stepped down from the Chinese Organization Department, and he knew that Zhao Zifeng had a deep sense of Dongshan, although Zhao Zifeng had left Dongshan for more than ten years, but he still had a lot of influence in Dongshan, of course, for Huang Hua, Zhao Zifeng's status in the minds of the current central leaders was what he valued most, so when Zhao Zifeng called last night, he would take it so seriously.

Almost every year, Huang Hua will take time to see Zhao Zifeng and report on Dongshan's work, although Zhao Zifeng tells Huang Hua every time that he doesn't need to do this, but Huang Hua can still feel that Zhao Zifeng is very concerned about the development of Dongshan, which not only makes him happy, but also makes him feel some pressure.

Zhao Lao is an old comrade who retired from the Hua Organization Department, and Tian Haihua knows very well what the Hua Organization Department means, so he must take Zhao Zifeng's opinions seriously.

Fortunately, in this hour, Zhao Zifeng's heart looked good, talking and laughing, it seems

Unaffected by last night's incident in the slightest, Han Lei reported the situation to him early in the morning, and Huang Hua didn't say anything, but just asked the Haiqu Municipal Party Committee to seriously deal with the responsible personnel, which made Han Lei also feel a lot more relieved.

Zhao Zifeng didn't like that form. So going back to Dongshan is also quite low-key, and Huang Hua also knows the spleen of this old leader, so he just came to visit for an hour. He took the initiative to leave, but after coming down, he also asked the General Office of the Provincial Party Committee to arrange Zhao Lao's accommodations and itinerary, not only not to affect Zhao Lao's daily life, but also to ensure safety and avoid accidents.

Liu Feixiang felt that he might not be able to wait for this Uncle Zhao. Look at the time it is already more than 9:50, and the steamed buns have eaten two plates, and if you sit down here, I'm afraid the owner of the steamed bun shop has an opinion.

Liu Feixiang has some regrets, although it is not clear what the origin of this Uncle Zhao is, but it is certain that the other party still has considerable influence in the province, Liu Feixiang has no other superfluous ideas, but if he can meet a friend, it is also a good thing.

"Xiao Liu, are you in a hurry? I'm sorry. I'm sorry to be delayed. Just when Liu Feixiang was about to leave, Zhao Zifeng finally appeared in Liu Feixiang's eyes.

"Uncle Zhao, you have made me miserable, you haven't seen the face of the boss? I really thought you couldn't come, come, I think you haven't had breakfast yet, are you waiting for this big bun, you won't come again." I'm embarrassed to sit down, people have a lot of business here, I can't always occupy someone's position and not move the nest. ”

Liu Feixiang saw the other party coming panting and hurrying, and knew that the other party must have something urgent to delay. didn't say much, and ordered a glass of bean juice, a plate of big buns, and a plate of side dishes for the other party.

"Hehe, the gluttonous worms in my stomach have been hooked by your little dishes and big buns, don't say it, I really haven't had time to eat this breakfast. It's just waiting to eat big buns, which should have a history of more than ten years, 89 and 90 years I remember that I have been here to eat a few times, although there are a lot of times when I go back to Dongshan in the past ten years, but I really haven't come here to eat. ”

Zhao Zifeng smiled, stretched out his chopsticks and stuffed the big bun into his mouth, he had a very good appetite, more than seventy people, but he was in good spirits, he could eat and drink, and he had to walk ten miles every day, whether in Beijing or in other places.

"That's right, I'll finish eating with you, let's go shopping again, go to Dinglin Temple or take Ziqi Street and Qingniu Street?" Liu Feixiang asked with a smile while putting the big bun in front of the other party.

"Well, I have to go, there must be a lot of people in Dinglin Temple at this time, let's go to Ziqi Street first to make money, there are many antique calligraphy and painting gadgets over there, let's take a look, although I am not good at collecting, but some gadgets are still commemorative, I remember that there is a one on the edge of this Ziqi Street, specializing in selling dust, incense burners and folding fans, it has been for some years, when the time comes, take it."

Two go back. Zhao Zifeng replied while eating: "There is also a shop selling calligraphy and painting on Qingniu Street, although it is not an ancient calligraphy and painting, but there are still some fine products, and you have to go and see it." ”

As soon as Liu Feixiang heard this, he knew that this old man seemed to be relying on himself, and he had to finish Ziqi Street and Qingniu Street, and he couldn't do it for two hours, and he had to go to Dinglin Temple for a walk, and he couldn't go down at two or three o'clock in the afternoon?

Seeing that Liu Feixiang was silent, Zhao Zifeng glanced at Liu Feixiang with a smile, "What, is there something to do? I want to accompany my daughter-in-law? The two of us are not enough to be at home at night and me, how rare is the sun shining in this daytime, why don't you call your daughter-in-law together, what are you doing at home in such a good weather? Come out for a walk and breathe fresh air." ”

"Uncle Zhao, I don't have a daughter-in-law yet, why don't you introduce one to me?" Liu Feixiang couldn't help but tease the other party, this old man is really a bit of an old child, just come when he dips it, and he has a bit of a self-cooked taste.

Liu Feixiang didn't know the image of this old man Zhao in the minds of outsiders, but he thought that this old man was cheerful and humorous, and it was also interesting.
