At ten o'clock in the morning of the third day, the train arrived in Ningcheng. As soon as the three of them got out of the car, Ye Ziyu called out repeatedly, this stove really deserves its name, it's so hot. Li Heng smiled: "It will be hotter in the afternoon." So the two followed Li Heng to their school. Li Heng returned to the dormitory, and Ye Ziyu and Li Xin lived in the school's guest house.

When they left their school, the two took a total of less than 500 yuan, nearly 100 yuan for the ticket, and 20 yuan for the train to buy a boxed lunch and purified water. At this time, I was afraid that there was not much money left, so I didn't dare to live expensively, so I found the cheapest place to live, ten yuan a night. But the men's and women's rooms are not on the same floor. The two made an appointment, took a nap for an hour, and then met downstairs.

Ye Ziyu went to the room, first went to the bathhouse to take a bath, felt a lot refreshed, and fell asleep when he lay down on the bed. But I didn't want to be too tired on the train these days, and I fell asleep for nearly two hours before I woke up, thinking badly, Li Xin might have been waiting downstairs earlier. He hurriedly went downstairs, and sure enough, Li Xin was already standing downstairs. He said embarrassedly: "I'm so tired that I don't want to oversleep." How long have you been here?"

Li Xin smiled and said, "I arrived on time, and I stood for almost half an hour." ”

Ye Ziyu said, "Why did you wake up so punctually?"

Li Xin looked at Shi Ziyu with pity and smiled: "I was afraid of oversleeping, so I only lay down on the bed to rest, and I didn't dare to fall asleep." ”

Hearing her say this, Ye Ziyu said distressedly: "Then why bother, you should come up and wake me up." ”

Li Xin shook her head and said, "It's okay, I know you're tired." ”

The two walked out of the school, and there were many women on the side of the road carrying teapots, and a few glasses were placed on a small table to sell tea, two dimes for a cup, which made Ye Ziyu feel fresh, he had never seen this industry in Jincheng. Li Xin said: "Ningcheng is too hot, and it is easy to get thirsty when walking on the street, so there are people selling tea on the street. ”

Ye Ziyu smiled: "When you say that, I really feel thirsty." ”

So he bought a cup of tea with great interest. He also said: "I have heard that Ningcheng's osmanthus duck is a famous dish, this time we can't afford to eat it, let's leave it for later, this time we will try this special tea first." ”

When he came here, Ye Ziyu wanted to go to the presidential palace of the former Republic of China to see it the most, but first, the weather was too hot, and secondly, he estimated that the tickets to this presidential palace might not be cheap, and they didn't have much money on them, so they couldn't help but go. Out of the university to the north, not far is the Jiming Temple, this is the peak of incense in Ningcheng, the ticket is not expensive, one yuan. So Ye Ziyu said: "Let's go here and have a look, we can be considered to have been back to Ningcheng once." ”

Li Xin smiled: "Okay, I just want to go in and burn incense." ”

When the two entered the temple, Li Xin burned incense and prayed very devoutly, and Ye Ziyu looked around.

The weather is hot and there are not many tourists. The temple is quiet and simple, from the left side of the road along the stone steps slowly up, a yellow wall cave door stands head-on, the hole door is in the middle of the "ancient Jiming Temple" four big characters shine brightly, this is the mountain gate of Jiming Temple. Walking up to the top of the hill, there is a small attic, where you can see Xuanwu Lake, which is very beautiful. The east of the Daxiong Treasure Hall is the ruins of the Xuxuan Pavilion, and the west is the tower courtyard. In the courtyard, a seven-storey eight-sided medicine pagoda rises from the ground, the bucket arch is heavy, the copper brake cylinder tile, under the sunset, the golden light overflows in all directions. When the two of them stood on the top of the mountain and watched Xuanwu Lake, a gray-haired lady beside her looked at Li Xin for a while and said, "This little girl is so good-looking, do you want to see her appearance?"

Li Xin and Ye Ziyu were both stunned, then smiled and said no need. Ye Ziyu thought to herself, what kind of appearance do you see, we don't have this spare money now, I still want to show others my appearance.

After the two of them looked around, they came out of the temple, and it was almost dusk. I planned to find a small noodle restaurant to eat something, and then go back to the guest house to rest. I didn't want to be at the gate of the temple, but I was suddenly stopped by a middle-aged man, who said to Li Xin: "This young lady is so good-looking, let's tell my fortune." Li Xin smiled politely, but still shook her head and refused.

Walking away two steps, Ye Ziyu was happy and said, "Miss Li, it seems that you are really a daughter, with good looks, and you will definitely be rich and noble in the future!"

Li Xin chuckled: "Yes, I haven't told you yet, when I was a child, at my grandmother's house, there was a master of Tianning Temple who showed me a photo, saying that I would be very rich after I got married." ”

Ye Ziyu said, "Oh, doesn't that mean that I will be rich." ”

Li Xin smiled again: "Stinky beauty, you." The master who looked at the appearance also said, I will be very lonely when I am middle-aged and old, do you think I don't want me anymore?"

Ye Ziyu joked: "Then you must be very ugly when you are old, please pay attention to maintenance." ”

Li Xin said: "No matter how much a woman takes care of it, she will always get old." The concubine is a concubine, and the gentleman knows it. Don't be in the mood for the day after tomorrow, not as good as when you first met. ”

Ye Ziyu saw Li Xin say this poem casually, she was very happy in her heart, she groaned, and said with a smile: "Absolutely not! If that's the case, I must have gone before you!"

Li Xin was moved, grabbed his arm, and said angrily: "Don't talk nonsense. ”

Ye Ziyu took advantage of the situation to hold her palm, and said with her fingers while gesturing on it: "A thousand gold buys good jade, a hundred gold asks for good work, and makes a double ring for Nong, which is connected all the time." ”

These small poems they said were all written by the Ming Dynasty poet Wang Wu, and the poem was called "Midnight Song". It is a love song sung by men and women in ancient times. The original meaning was that the man used his daughter as bait to confess in front of a pure and flawless girl, saying that he would love each other for a lifetime. The girl is very smart, and her answer is very cautious, the daughter is meaningless, but it seems to be deceitful, and Jun Xun can maintain the affection when she first met, and her wish is fulfilled. At this time, the two of them used it contrary to their intentions, soothing their chests, their feelings were earnest, and their hearts were very beautiful.

It's good to be young, and after a night's rest, the two are full of energy. Early in the morning, I got up and had breakfast, and planned to go to Xuanwu Lake in the morning, and the two of them would take the train home in the evening. Because Li Xin took the train home from here for only two hours, Ye Ziyu was completely relieved.

Ye Ziyu didn't expect that the sun in Ningcheng was already hot early in the morning. He lamented to Li Xin: "You said that Chiang Kai-shek is also powerful enough, whether it is the old generation of warlords Zhang Zuolin, Wu Peifu, Sun Chuanfang, or the new generation of warlords Yan Xishan, Li Zongren, Feng Yuxiang, Lao Chiang can clean them up, but why can't he beat them? Now I understand." ”

Li Xin knew that he had strange theories, but she just liked to listen to him, so she looked at him with a smile and listened to him continue: "Chiang Kai-shek really shouldn't have made Ningcheng the capital, it's too hot here! Therefore, those who set the capital in the capital can dominate the country, and those who set the capital in Ningcheng can only be in a corner of peace, and the national fortune will not last long. ”
