Chapter 64: Slender West Lake

The next day, the jade carving masters began to design and carve something. Zhao Mingyang, who had nothing to do, was ready to take Xiaohan to Yangzhou. As soon as he went out, he saw the car assigned to him by the Yangzhou Military Region, and then looked at the military license plate on the car. I always felt that it was not convenient to take this car to play, so I got in the car and said, "Take us to the nearest rental car place." ”

The car soon arrived at a place called Dacheng Gas Rental, and after arriving, I rented two Audis. The rent is 500 yuan per day and the deposit is 10,000 yuan. After that, let the military region's car go back. Because Li Xiaotian has been to Yangzhou many times, he will lead the way and take us to Yangzhou. Li Li and Li Xiaotian have a car, and Zhao Mingyang, Xiaohan, Chen Le, and Qian Yu have a car. After some deliberation, it was decided to go to Slender West Lake first.

Slender West Lake is in the northwest suburbs of Yangzhou, and we finally arrived after driving for more than an hour. After parking the car, Chen Le went to buy a ticket. After entering, the scenery is pleasant and beautiful! At this time, Li Xiaotian introduced: "Slender West Lake is called 'Slender West Lake' because the lake is slender and long. The slender and tortuous lake road is strung with long-mentioned spring willows, four bridges and rain, Xu Garden, Xiaojin Mountain, Futai, Wuting Bridge, White Tower, Twenty-four Bridges, Linglong Flower Circle, Xichun Terrace, Wangchun Tower, Yinyue Teahouse, Lakeside Promenade, Stone Wall Flowing Song, Shizuka Book House and other scenic spots on both sides of the strait. All in all, a lot of attractions! If you watch it slowly, you probably won't be able to finish it in a day! ”

Zhao Mingyang said with a smile: "Anyway, we're fine, just watch slowly." I can't finish reading it today, and I'll look at it tomorrow! And Xiaohan is like a happy butterfly, running back and forth around there, laughing, and happily spinning in circles! Looking at Xiao Han's happy appearance, Zhao Mingyang's heart was full of emotion. said silently in my heart: Xiaohan, I couldn't accompany you to see Slender West Lake in my previous life. This life has finally come true! I don't know how you are doing in your previous life! Thinking of this, Zhao Mingyang walked a few steps quickly and came to Xiao Han's side, took her hand and toured with her.

We went to the royal pier together, and Zhao Mingyang proposed: "Why don't we rent a cruise boat first and take a look on the water first!" Xiao Han objected: "Fame, I want to take a look on the shore first!" Let's take a boat tour of Slender West Lake in the evening, okay? I heard that taking a boat trip to Slender West Lake at night has a unique flavor! Li Xiaotian nodded approvingly. We continued to walk to other places, and every time we went to a beautiful place, we had to take pictures. Among them, Xiaohan and I have the most group photos! Fortunately, I bought a digital camera before I came, otherwise how much film would have to be bought!

Walking along the lake, I saw a round door at the end of the road, on which the word Xu Yuan was written. Once inside, there is a pond full of lotus flowers. It's the end of June, and it's the season for lotus flowers. A fresh fragrance came to our noses, and we took a deep breath and reveled in this fairyland-like place. Xiao Han said happily: "Fame, hurry up and take a photo of me here!" I want you to take pictures of all the lotus flowers in the back, I like the lotus flowers the most! Zhao Mingyang smiled and took the camera from Chen Le's hand and took a few photos of Xiaohan.

Xiao Han smiled and said, "Fame, come on!" Let's take a picture here! It would be great if I had such a lotus pond at home in the future! Zhao Mingyang returned the camera to Chen Le, walked over with a smile and said, "You like it!" Well, when I get back, I'll have people dig a big pit in the manor, fill it with water, and plant lotus flowers in it. Build a pavilion by the lake and make a swing with flowers and trees next to it. In spring, we can go and see the flowers bloom together! In the summer we can swing there and watch the lotus flowers! In autumn, we can go to pick lotus flowers together! In winter we can watch the snow in the pavilion! ”

Xiao Han didn't speak, just quietly snuggled in Zhao Mingyang's arms. There was a glitter in her eyes, and she was in tears! But these are tears of happiness! Zhao Mingyang looked at her and gently helped her wipe away her tears. "Fame! It's good to have you! This is the second time Xiaohan has said to him: It's good to have you. The first time was on her birthday, and this time it was the second time. Zhao Mingyang looked at Xiao Han and said with a smile: "Little fool! I will do my best to fulfill all your wishes! Because you're my woman! In the past life, in this life, and in the next life! ”

Xiao Han smiled sweetly and said, "You are so domineering!" You've occupied two lives of me, and you still want a third life! I don't care, I want to be a man in the next life! You be a woman, and I will take care of you! All right? Zhao Mingyang just smiled and didn't speak. Is it good or not? Say it quickly! "Good! Good! I will be a woman in the next life, you can take care of me! Zhao Mingyang finally couldn't stand Xiaohan's soft grinding and hard bubbles, and agreed to her.

Leave the lotus pond and come to the main hall of the garden, which is called the Listening Oriole Pavilion. This hall is exquisitely constructed and elegantly furnished. After a round in it, I went out. Out of Xu Garden, I saw a mountain in the lake, and this mountain is Xiaojin Mountain. Take a boat to Xiaojin Mountain and go to the mountain, there is a pavilion on the top of the mountain, called the Wind Pavilion! Standing in the wind pavilion, you can have a panoramic view of the entire Slender West Lake. Looking down, you can see that there is a mention on the west side of Xiaojin Mountain leading to the lake. At the end of the mention there was a small kiosk, "Let's go, let's go there and have a look!" With that, Xiao Han ran down the mountain.

When we came to the pavilion, we realized that this was the blowing platform. It is said that Qianlong fished here, so it is also called Diaoyutai. The Diaoyutai faces the water on three sides, and there is a hole in the round door on each side. If you look to the left, you will see the view of the White Pagoda! If you look to the right, you can see the Wuting Bridge! I played on the blowing stage for a while, and took a few more pictures. Xiao Han proposed to go up to the Wuting Bridge to play. Let's go to Wuting Bridge.

When you arrive at the front of the Wuting Bridge, you will see the elegant and beautiful shape of the bridge. The small pavilion on the bridge is a yellow tile and zhu pillar, with a white railing, and the pavilion is painted with caissons, magnificent, and has the characteristics of southern architecture! The thick piers under the bridge are another architectural feature of the north. It can be said that it is a must to integrate the north and south architecture and garden design! There are five small pavilions built on the bridge, so it is called the Five Pavilion Bridge. The fifteen bridge holes under the bridge are said to be able to see the reflection of the fifteen full moons on the night of the fifteenth full moon, but unfortunately today is not the fifteenth, and now is not the night!

Xiao Han smiled and said, "We can take a boat to see it at night!" Today is the thirteenth day of the lunar calendar, although the moon may not be too round at night, but it is better to have something to see than not to see it! Let's go eat! I'm so hungry! The snacks in Yangzhou are also very good! I want to eat Yangzhou's braised lion's head, Yangzhou egg fried rice, and many, many more! ”

Li Xiaotian said with a smile: "Yangzhou has more than braised lion's head and egg fried rice!" When you come to Yangzhou, you must try three heads, these three are the braised silver carp head, the grilled whole pig's head and the crab roe lion head! And the boiled dried shreds are also good! Yangzhou's top ten famous spots are also good, namely: Sanding buns, mille-feuille oil cake, double sesame shortbread, jade siu mai, dried vegetable buns, wild duck vegetable buns, glutinous rice siu mai, crab roe steamed dumplings, che chela siu mai and chicken shredded rolls! But you can't eat the most authentic food here! If you want to eat the most authentic food, you have to go to the century-old restaurant outside! ”

Zhao Mingyang smiled and said, "Let's go eat casually first!" If you want to eat Yangzhou's famous dishes, let's go eat them after we have played! Anyway, we're in Yangzhou, and those dishes can't run. It's the same when you go to eat! There seems to be a seller of braised lion's head and Yangzhou fried rice over there, let's hurry up! ”
