Chapter 42: That Summer

The May Day holiday is coming, in order to go out to play, everyone finished their homework early, in the evening, Wang Xi, Cai He, Zhao Lin, Zhang Lin and Zhu Chong have begun to pack up their things, tomorrow they have to get up early to go to the Guancheng bus station in Nanlong District to take the car to the north station of Lianshan, the north station is located in Baotian District, next to Guancheng City, so the itinerary is also convenient, take the high-speed without traffic jam for about 40 minutes. It's just that they are buses at 9 o'clock in the morning, and although Qinghu Town has a direct bus to the bus station, it takes at least half an hour to take the bus to the bus station in Nanlong District. So I had to wake up early tomorrow.

Wang Xi had already bought bread for breakfast, so they only needed to go to bed early tonight and get up early tomorrow.

Afraid of disturbing them to go to bed early, the Three Musketeers who lived with them went to the next room to play first, and then went to sleep quietly when they were all asleep, which can be said to be very touching.

The next day, the five pioneers packed their bags at seven o'clock and ran to the bus stop, before going out, Wang Xi sent a message to Liu Caiwei, as soon as they arrived, Liu Caiwei also came, followed by Mu Xinxin - they are neighbors.

"Mo Xuan may arrive a little later," said Ms. Liu, who is the farthest away from here, and it takes ten minutes to walk here.

"What about Li Yue?" asked Zhu Chong.

Liu Caiwei and Mu Xinxin glanced at each other, and Mu Xinxin hurriedly said, "She has a fever and can't come."

Zhu Chong immediately complained: "Really, I asked her to pay attention to her body, drink more boiled water, blow less air conditioner and exercise more, she just doesn't like to listen to me, why is she sick......"

Before he had time to complain, Mo Xuan rushed over: "Everyone, it's not too late!"

"We just arrived," Ms. Liu said.

"That's right, breakfast" Wang Xi hurriedly took out bread and handed it to the three girls.

"Thank you, hehe" Liu Caiwei winked at Wang Xi.

It can only be said that they were lucky, the car came in less than five minutes, and the big guys got into the car with a smile. After getting in the car, it is a common pattern again: the fast-ripening Wang Xi, Liu Caiwei, Cai He, Mu Xinxin, the slow-burning Zhang Lin Moxuan, and ...... Zhao Lin, who plays cool running every day, Zhu Chong doesn't like to play mobile games, he had to watch Zhao Lin play, and then listen to Zhao Lin's various introductions, so he couldn't help but play with him every day.

After arriving at the bus station, there was still nearly an hour to go, so Liu Caiwei briefly introduced their itinerary.

"We went to Changshanyong Island in Baotian District, Lianshan City, we will play on the island for a full day, we may arrive at the beach at ten o'clock, then take a boat to the island to put our luggage, we first go to take a yacht, and then eat seafood at noon in the restaurant on the island; in the afternoon, we will go to the island to visit the Mazu Pavilion of the Song Dynasty, and then go to play in the water for a while, and come to the beach barbecue in the evening, and then go back to the homestay. The next day, we took a boat back, walked around Baotian District, had lunch at noon and drove back to Qinghu Town. That's our itinerary. ”

Zhang Lin waved his hand: "Then, Commander Liu, this is a poor tour, a seafood feast and a yacht."

"In fact, the price of tourism projects in Lianshan City is quite close to the people, and the seafood in Changshan Chung is also known to us in this neighborhood, rest assured, it will not be much more expensive, besides, it doesn't cost much to walk in the water and barbecue. Liu Caiwei said.

Wang Xi also deliberately joked: "With the person you like, you will be happy in whatever you do, no matter if he is rich or poor."

Zhang Lin and Mo Xuan's faces immediately turned redder than apples.

When Cai He and Mu Xinxin saw it, they showed meaningful smiles.

"Who do you think will come first, they or the two commanders-in-chief?" Cai He asked Mu Xinxin in a low voice.

"Commander-in-chief," Mu Xinxin said, "the two of them, it's too slow." ”

After saying that, both of them snickered quietly.

Finally, the car arrived, and after getting into the car, Zhu Chong fell asleep, the energetic Zhao Lin continued to run every day, and the other three in pairs began to chat endlessly, and they didn't know how many words they had in their stomachs, and they couldn't finish talking. An hour's journey was not a long time, and there were only six or seven bus stops from the bus station to the beach, and when the sun was in the sky, they arrived at the beach and got on the boat to Chang Shan Chung.

Wang Xi looked at the blue sea, full of emotion, from ancient times to the present, how many celebrities have come to the seaside, all have to chant poems related to the sea, or the heroic "angry look at the snakes and insects in the strait, swear to sweep away the demon atmosphere and return to the land", or the beautiful "the spring river tide is even with the sea, and the bright moon on the sea is born together", or the tragic "panic beachhead says panic, and sighs in the ocean". He also wanted to "be vassally elegant", and also wrote a limerick poem "Watching the Sea":

In early April, summer views the sea

The blue waves and sea breeze send me to bosom

If he will close the city one day

Take a boat and let the waves open

And Cai He thought a little "strange": "Zhu Chong, do you think our alliance can form a water army?"

"There is no sea in Guancheng, why do you want to form a naval army?" Zhu Chong said.

"There is no sea in Guancheng, but there is Qingjiang, and Qingjiang is across the three cities of Guancheng and Shanyangkou."

Zhang Lin took over the conversation: "There is no sea in Guancheng, but we can liberate the whole province, then there will be a sea."

"Are we going to take a boat and fight the gangsters?" Zhu Chong said.

"Hahaha, who knows" Cai He smiled.

The boat sailed to Changshan Chung Island, and as soon as it came ashore, it saw a high monument, the front was "Changshan Chung Island" four big characters, and the back was written a poem, looking at the drop, it was written by a general.

"In those years, our people's army created the miracle of wooden boats fighting warships in Changshan Chung, and this poem was written by the general who commanded that battle. Before the founding of the People's Republic of China, the reactionaries used Changshan Chung Island as their base and often sent warships to attack the Lianshan Yangkou area, and even hijacked ships; our commander-in-chief of the campaign and the deputy commander of the military region ordered that this sea stinger must be pulled out. The name Ge Island is derived from the Song Dynasty A-Ma Pavilion on the island. The place where the monument is located is the place where the people's army landed on the island. Wang Xi said.

"Wang Xi, you are so knowledgeable" Liu Caiwei blinked and took a few photos of the monument.

"It's average—let's go and put our luggage first," Wang Xi said, "The B&B is in front of it, right?"

"That's right, it's right next to the pier," Liu Caiwei said, taking everyone to the homestay. After putting off the luggage, we walked to the marina.

Fifty yachts per person is already cheap in Lianshan City, where prices are higher. The route takes an hour, first around the island, then northeast to visit other islands, and then turns back to see Cheung Son Chung Island and its surrounding small archipelago.

When the time came, the yacht left the dock.

"Tourists and friends, here is Changshan Chung Island, is the largest island in our province, after the attention of the provincial government, the island's tourism industry has begun to develop rapidly in recent years, now we see the liberation of Changshan Chung Island Monument, August 1949 ...... "yacht, the tour guide is explaining to everyone, tourists have taken pictures towards the monument, Wang Xi has an understanding of this history, then went to the deck to look at the place where the sea and the sky meet in the distance, and began to reverie: every drop of seawater, every grain of sand, may be a witness to history. Before the grand history, before the vast sea, Wang Xi suddenly felt how small he was.

But he deeply understands that a drop of dew can also reflect the brilliance of the sun, and he can make a difference even if he is small!

The yacht circled the island and headed northeast for the archipelago.

After the tour guide's explanation was finished, the tourists began to "free activities", the girls turned their backs to the sea on the deck, and came to a beautiful selfie, although Wang Xi didn't like to take pictures, but he was still pulled by Liu Caiwei to take several photos - his set of "navy style matching" and the sea are really too lined, of course, he and Liu Caiwei are more lined. Zhao Lin is also rare not to be a bowing family, he took several photos of the sea, he hurriedly sent the photos to the space, and after a while, Xiaowei and they liked and commented.

Zhu Chong sent several photos to Li Yue, and did not forget to send a large number of words of concern, Li Yue simply replied "Thank you, the scenery is so beautiful", Zhu Chong happily hugged the mobile phone to turn in circles, and "I don't see the re-entry, crying and rippling, I see the re-entry, and I laugh and say".

After the voyage was over, everyone who returned to the island was not idle, how could they fill their stomachs with a few pieces of bread for breakfast? Go for a seafood feast! Everyone ran towards the seafood restaurant. Although the seafood on Changshan Chung Island is famous for its high quality and low price, seafood is seafood after all, how much cheaper can it be?

"It doesn't matter, so many people eat these things, the price is already very worthwhile, and a little money per person is enough," Liu Caiwei said.

"This meal, don't talk to me about a balanced healthy diet, I just want to eat seafood, no leftovers, and eat it back!" Zhao Lin gritted his teeth.

"Then you're a bit troublesome with this operation, you have to gnaw all the fish bones, crab shells and shells, even if your teeth are hard enough, can you swallow them?" Cai He complained.

Zhao Lin was speechless, so he could only give Cai He a middle finger. And decided that when he started eating later, he must gobble up the wind and gobble up the clouds, and not leave Cai He a little food, the dining table is the battlefield! However, unfortunately, the "vice" of taking pictures and sending space before eating made Zhao Lin's great idea come to naught, and by the time he finished taking photos and sending space, others had already moved several chopsticks. Zhao Lin could only put down his mobile phone in a panic and picked up chopsticks to "grab food" with others.

After eating and drinking, it is definitely not okay to take a walk to help your digestion. But the noon sun is so poisonous, how can you go out? The big guy finally decided to go back to the B&B to rest for a while, and then go out in the afternoon. Wang Xi and Cai He live together, the other three boys live together, and the three girls live together.

However, after returning to the B&B, some people are "decadent", Zhao Lin took the game on his mobile phone, and felt that the whole world had nothing to do with him, Zhu Chong probably felt bored, so he simply turned on the TV and watched variety shows.

In the afternoon, Zhang Lin and Mo Xuan set off to the beach to play in the water, although they did not bring swimsuits, but there was still no problem of playing on the shore; Cai He and Mu Xinxin walked around Changshan Chung Island, which has a route around the island; and Wang Xi and Liu Caiwei went to visit the antique Song Dynasty Azu Pavilion, and only they were interested in history and culture.

The A-Ma Pavilion is not very large, but it is the symbol of the Koh Islands. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, the local government also paid attention to the repair of the Mazu Pavilion, but it still retains many elements of ancient times, and has not been "violently repaired" into a nondescript and non-ancient appearance, so today's appearance is not much different from the appearance of the Song Dynasty.

Wang Xi is staring at an ancient tree in the courtyard of the A-Ma Pavilion, which is said to have been planted the day after the Mazu Pavilion was repaired, and it is covered with many red ribbons with words written on it.

"Wang Xi, you've entered the Mazu Pavilion, don't you make a wish?" Liu Caiwei said and brought a red ribbon to write on it.

"What's the matter, I won't go to sea" Wang Xi smiled and smiled, "Besides, we believe in materialism"

"It's just a wish" Liu Caiwei smiled at him and hung up the red streamer.

"What wish have you made? I'll see," Wang Xi was a little curious.

Liu Caiwei pouted: "I won't show you, don't you believe in materialism, hum"

Wang Xi scratched his head helplessly.

"By the way, do you remember what I told you before?" Liu Caiwei asked suddenly.

"One o'clock in the morning?"

Liu Caiwei nodded: "At one o'clock in the morning, we will meet on the beach where the B&B goes out and turns right."

Wang Xi did not continue to ask, because he knew that by that time, all the long-term incomprehension and confusion would be solved.

When it came to the barbecue in the evening, everyone was entertaining and relaxing: Cai He and Mu Xinxin played duet, Zhang Lin and Zhu Chong, two chefs, chatted while barbecue, Mo Xuan handed materials and condiments to the two of them intimately, and Zhao Lin happily took pictures and selfies for everyone, and sent photos to the space, and interacted with Li Bin, Su Deng, and Marseille who commented below. Only Wang Xi and Liu Caiwei kept quiet while having a tacit understanding, and only occasionally said a few words.

In the firelight, at night, by the sea, there is not only tacit tranquility, but also a trace of affection conveyed in the eyes.

Maybe it's because they're tired of playing all day, before ten o'clock, Zhang Lin Zhuchong and Zhao Lin shouted that they want to go to bed, and it didn't take long for the lights in their rooms to be turned off; although Mu Xinxin and Mo Xuan were also full of energy, but after eleven o'clock, it was difficult to resist the sleepiness, and they fell asleep; the most energetic was Cai He, he chatted with Wang Xi until twelve o'clock, and then chatted and chatted, there was no one sentence, at half past twelve, Wang Xi gently called Cai He's name twice, and only a faint snoring sounded to answer him.

Finally, the hour hand came to the first position. Wang Xi tiptoed out of the door and walked out of the B&B gently, he looked to the right, and there was indeed a figure standing on the beach, it was Liu Caiwei.

He walked straight towards Liu Caiwei, and when Liu Caiwei saw her, she also walked towards him, and when they got close to each other, the two stopped at the same time.

On the huge Changshan Chung Island, on the endless beach, there are only the two of them left, as if only the two of them are left in the world.

"Do you have anything to say to me?" Wang Xi spoke first.

Liu Caiwei raised her head and stared at him, blinked, her lips opened slightly, but she quickly closed them, and in the end, she still made up her mind to speak.

"Let's put it this way, I've been feeling more and more recently that I'm prone to causing trouble to others, and I have to trouble others when I can do things myself," Liu Caiwei said, pausing. "I can be alone, but I have to protect me, I can ride the Ferris wheel alone, but I have to be by your side to feel fulfilled, I can go to the library and go to the cinema by myself, but I have to pull you by my side. I really don't understand, I used to do everything by myself, why, why have I changed so many ...... in just two months? It's like I want you to be by my side, all the time by my side. Liu Caiwei said, smiling apologetically: "It is undeniable that my thinking is really too selfish, if you don't like me thinking like this, you can tell me, I will not think like that in the future, in the future, in the future......" Saying, she lowered her head, not daring to look directly at the other side, she felt a little short of breath.

Silence, silence, as if ten thousand years had passed, and finally, his voice broke the silence of only ten seconds.

"I can understand you," Wang Xi also spoke, "I don't know why, you always appear in my mind." When I finish writing a question, I will think of the type of question that I have explained to you, when I finish reading a book, I will want to share my experience with you, and when I pass by the dessert station on the street, I will reflexively want to ask 'what do you want to eat, I will buy it'. I, I don't understand, why, I can still talk and laugh in the face of a strong enemy, sometimes I always want to talk but can't say when I see you?"

Liu Caiwei raised her head and looked at Wang Xi incredulously.

"What I want to say is, in fact, I have this kind of selfish thinking like you" Wang Xi's face didn't show much expression, but he felt that his heartbeat was inexplicably speeding up.

Liu Caiwei's eyes widened, staring straight into his eyes, her mouth opened slightly, but she didn't dare to come out, as if she was about to forget to breathe.

"I mean, I like you, I like your kindness and frankness, I like your enthusiasm and cheerfulness, I like your talent, I like your empathy...... All in all, love everything about you. I like you, it's an undeniable objective fact. ”

After Liu Caiwei heard this, she showed a shallow smile, she jumped up at once, and hugged Wang Xi tightly in her arms, Wang Xi just smiled and stretched out her left hand to wrap around her waist, and gently touched her hair with her right hand, and said no other words.

If you like each other and the other person likes you, this should be happiness.

That summer, on the beach, at night, by the endless sea. They have embarked on this long road that is destined to go through ups and downs, but will eventually lead to happiness.
