Chapter Seventy-Two: The First Visit to the Capital (1)

The next day is Lanlan's weekend, and I brought the car directly from my residence to find Yun'er, and I have already contacted Tingting, and I will meet at the Wangfujing Nankou Bookstore. The prince asked Tian Liang to go too, and there is always some guarantee of safety for a man. He himself read "History of the Qing Dynasty" according to the arrangement of his eldest sister, and he could know the future direction of the Qing Dynasty. Eldest sister, it's not easy to bring back such a book, and if something unexpected happens, it's life-threatening. Anyway, the prince's memory is now extraordinary, and he can remember the time when big events happened. And it is not necessary to write down all the "History of the Qing Dynasty", probably because it will not be needed after more than 20 years of Kangxi.

As soon as I got out of the gate, a pure black car pulled up in front of me. Lan Lan opened the rear door and said to Yun'er and Tian Liang: "You two sit in the back and get in the car." ”

Yun'er could only listen and drink now, so she got into the car first, and Tian Liang stood with a red face and was embarrassed. It is taboo to sit so close to the hostess. But it's not quite right. Lan Lan immediately understood, and hurried: "You sit in front." ”

Tian Liang breathed a sigh of relief and sat in the co-pilot's seat. The driver Gao Qiang officially took up the operation.

Lan Lan: "Wangfujing Nankou Bookstore." "The car started right away.

The buildings, trees, and people in front of them quickly retreated. Yun'er felt dizzy, her stomach went up, and she endured it hard.

Gao Qiang saw from the inverted mirror that Yun'er's face began to turn pale, and said to Lan Lan: "Roll down the window to let in the air." Yunyun had better close his eyes and not look outside. ”

Lan Lan immediately knew that Yun'er was motion sickness, and said softly: "Close your eyes first and lean on me." When we go back, we go to the food store and buy sugar ginger slices or mints. Li, you massage Yunyun's Hegu acupoint. ”

Gao Qiang approvingly: "Professor Zhong, you can." ”

"I used to get motion sickness, and it seems that I can change my motion sickness habit by riding in the car a lot."

Yun'er has never felt motion sickness. Although I was riding in a horse-drawn carriage, the scenery outside was also moving, and it was easy to get motion sickness. Now it's just that the scenery is moving fast, and I still close my eyes.

Li comforted Yun'er and faced Gao Qiang: "Master Gao, is it okay for you to drive slowly?" ”

Gao Qiang hurriedly slowed down, and said: "This Ms. Chen, like a princess, so many people take care of her." ”

Lan Lan also whispered relief: "Bear with me, it's coming soon." ”

Yun'er head said that he could persevere, but he didn't dare to open his eyes. There's a wind blowing in outside, and it seems to feel better.

Leigh began to express her opinion: "Is it because of the pituitary gland or the ears. ”

Gao Qiang whispered "cut" to show disdain.

"What do you cut? Big-headed soldiers. "Li, like the goddess of war, raised her eyebrows at Gao Qiang.

Gao Qiang sat precariously, looking ahead, not daring to confront Li.

Finally arrived, Lan Lan asked Gao Qiang to park, picked Yun'er down, sat down on a bench by the flower bed, and said to Tian Liang: "You look at her for a while, and Li and I will buy it."

Ginger slices or mints give Yunyun a solution to motion sickness. Don't leave here! ”

As soon as Lan Lan and Li left, Tian Liang asked with concern, "Master, are you okay?" ”

Yun'er was afraid that Tian Liang would be worried, so she hurried: "It's much better, it's much better." "It's much better, but my face is still very pale, and I look like I'm trying to endure it.

Tian Liang couldn't get too close to Yun'er, so he could only look forward to Lan Lan and Li's coming back soon. Not bad, in five or six minutes, Lan Lan and Li came back, coming back with a few colorful ice creams in their hands.

"There are no ginger candy chips nearby, buy this and come back, Yunyun, you try it, it's pretty cool."

"What is this?"

"It's ice cream, red grapes."

"What kind of hoof is this? Doesn't it look like it? "Yun'er's understanding is hooves.

"My mother, belly......" Lily squatted down and covered her stomach, she understood what Yun'er was.

Gao Qiang, who came back from parking, saw Li's appearance of bending over and laughing: "Ms. Qiao's motion sickness part doesn't seem to be quite right, right?" How can it be reflected in the stomach? ”

Lan Lan took the lead and laughed, and Yun'er couldn't hold back.

The sweet ice cream went down, and Yun'er felt much better.

"One more drink." Lan Lan handed over a cup, and there was a pale green liquid in it, "This is a lemon, it has acid, you try it?" ”

"I didn't give you any money, so I broke the bank." Yun'er was very unconcerned.

"Hey, how much money can this cost? Turn back and invite me. ”

Yun'er was busy. took out a few big red tickets from the bag given by the eldest sister and stuffed them to Li: "You go and buy them for everyone, how bad is it for me to use alone?" ”

"Don't mind, we don't get motion sickness."

"Buy food whenever you put it there."

"Sister Yunyun, you are so chic, I am sure of your big money." Yun'er didn't know what a few red tickets could buy, but Gao Qiang's strange gaze at that moment surprised Yun'er, did she give less or more? You won't be angry with me, will you? How did she know that most of the ice cream she bought was with change.

Looking at the scene in front of her, Yun'er's eyes were not enough: there were too many people, too many cars, too many buildings, and she was dazzled.

Lan Lan: "Now the flow of people is much less, after Wangfujing Street has become a pedestrian street, the price of goods is getting higher and higher, and there are not many ordinary people patronizing it." Rich people come, people from other places come, foreigners come, famous, all Wangfujing in Beijing knows. ”

Yun'er didn't even think about it: "We also have a Wangfujing there, which is where the ten princes of the Ming Dynasty lived. ”

Lan Lan hurriedly diverted the topic: "This Xu Tingting, she hasn't come yet, see how I clean her up." Just then, a slender and tall woman with long hair stood in front of Lan Lan with a smile: "Ms. Zhong Lan, what are you talking about here?" ”

"Xu Tingting!" The two laughed and hugged each other.

Lan Lan hurriedly introduced Yun'er: "Yunyun, this is my good friend and old classmate Xu Tingting, we were classmates in high school, and then she was admitted to the Central Conservatory of Music. Tingting, these two are guests from our house, this girl's name is Yunyun, and this is Mr. Tian with her. This one you know, Ms. Jory. ”

"Hello! It's been a pleasure to meet you. Tingting held Yun'er's hand, "Lanlan, your guest is so beautiful, it looks like he is still in his third year of college than us." ”

"Misjudgment! We should call her aunt by generation. Her husband called my mother my sister. ”

"Wait a minute, your husband? Is she already married? They ......" Tingting pointed to Yun'er and Tian Liang.

"Teacher Xu, don't mess with the mandarin duck spectrum like Li, okay? They are not a couple. ”

"I'm sorry, I'm so presumptuous, I'm so embarrassed." Tingting bowed apologetically to Yun'er.

Yun'er smiled relievedly: "It's okay." ”

Gao Qiang stood over with a grin: "Professor Zhong hasn't introduced me to this Teacher Xu yet." ”

"This is Mayakov Sansothavsky." Several people burst into laughter. Gao Qiang didn't care about Lan Lan's ridicule at all, and introduced himself: "Gao Qiang driver".

"Hello", Xu Tingting bent down politely.

Li leaned forward and leaned back with a smile, looked at Gao Qiang, and had a better impression of Gao Qiang: "This guy also has black humor." ”

When she entered the bookstore, Yun'er's mouth suddenly opened wide, and her eyes were not enough: it is not too much to call this a mountain of books and a sea of books! The bookstall in Liulichang can't be compared to here. It's really a bookstall there, and some of the books are on the floor, and some are on makeshift tables and shelves, where are the books here on the bookshelves? Neatly stacked. Lan Lan knew that Yun'er liked books like calligraphy and painting, crafts, and poetry and songs, so she said to her: "The first floor is all about politics and economics, you don't need it, let's go upstairs to find the books you like." ”

Yun'er hurriedly followed Lan Lan, and when she arrived at the elevator, she was frightened, why did the stairs go up by herself? didn't dare to take a step forward, Lan Lan and Tingting put her up one by one. Tingting wondered so badly, why didn't this aunt come from the ravine, why didn't she get on the elevator?

Lan Lan led Yun'er to the counter of the Chinese painting album, and Yun'er was dizzy all of a sudden: Why are there so many good-looking big books? She picked up a copy and looked surprised. The quality of this book is really gone, whether it is the binding method or the quality of the paper of the book. Especially the paintings inside, they are better than the real thing, and the printing skills of others are many times higher than those of the Qing Dynasty? Yun'er has a peony album in her hand, and that painting technique is also incomparable to the Qing Dynasty!

"Aunt Yunyun", Lan Lan likes Yun'er and doesn't know what to call her, Lan Lan, who has always been humorous, joked with Yun'er, "Your old man's cousin is overly obsessed, can you sober up?" I have a book and a pen here, which one do you like, write down the title, author, and publisher of the book, and ask Mr. Xu to contact her uncle and buy you a wholesale price, which can be much cheaper, and his uncle is in charge of distribution in Xinhua Bookstore, how about it? Look at your appearance, you are going to beat the invincible opponents of Chinese painting. ”

Yun'er was embarrassed: "It's okay to write it down, but I don't recognize a lot of the words on it." ”

Lan Lan regretted this, why did she forget that her aunt didn't know simplified words, maybe Tingting regarded her beautiful aunt as illiterate. Hurriedly said to Tingting: "Let's remember, Yunyun, you can point it out to us." ”

Tingtingsheng asked, "Our aunt is illiterate?" Isn't that a pity? No wonder they got married so early. By the way, it's from Taiwan? Singapore or Zambia? "This one is humorous enough.

"What are you talking nonsense? Go back and ask your aunt to invite you to eat mutton steamed buns. ”

"Oh, it's terrible!" Tingting is most afraid of eating mutton steamed buns.

Even Tian Liang couldn't hold back his laughter.

Yun'er looks at any of the books that are very good, Lan Lan looks at her and already understands that she likes freehand flower and bird paintings the most, followed by Gongbi flowers and birds. The vision is still very high, the albums she picked out are the works of today's famous Chinese painters and the works of middle-aged Chinese painters with superb painting skills, Master Gan Lin has been, and the main learning content of Mrs. Yun here is painting, it seems that her skills will not be very shallow.

I couldn't put it down and chose more than forty books, and Lan Lan and Tingting also memorized them, but Yun'er had to buy two sets of flower and bird albums written by Xu Zhan first. Seeing that she really likes it, she can't bear to object. Lanlan has a book purchase discount card, which is issued by the Education Bureau to teachers in tertiary institutions.

Although Tingting is engaged in music and doesn't know anything about painting, Xu Zhan's famous name is known to many people, which is really thunderous. This aunt can't put down his work, and it shows that her appreciation level is very strong. So he said: "Lan Lan, I'll give you a Jianyi, our aunt likes calligraphy and painting so much, why don't you help her buy some calligraphy and painting CDs?" Professor Xu's video teaching materials are very popular, and my brother is a loyal fan of his. It just so happens that my uncle is also in charge of audio and video distribution, so of course he can also get discounts. ”

"You're such a buddy!" Lan Lan happily gave Tingting a slap on the back.

"How do I feel that Professor Zhong is the boss of the underworld?"

Looking at the style of the books and bookstores here, Yun'er felt as if she was in another world. In the Qing Dynasty, I often accompanied my father and wore men's clothes to visit the bookstall in Liulichang. At that time, I felt that it was already a pleasure, and when I went to look at the books with the scent of ink from one bookstall after another, I felt like I was a boat sailing through the sea. Fluttering, those books are like lotus flowers next to the boat, don't pick them down and keep them for yourself, but touch them and your heart is sweet. But today, she longs to be an autumn farmer, and she reaps hard, harvesting all the books and bringing them home.

Yun'er, like her father, has an infatuation with books, not the feeling of "having a golden house in the book, and Yan Ruyu in the book", but feeling that there is a wider world in the book than reality, and the more the vision, the broader the horizon.

Then, they went to the reference shelf, and Yun'er selected more than 20 reference books on Chinese paintings, in fact, there are many paintings in them, but they are not as big as the album, and the content is to comment on Chinese painting works. Next, we went to the counter of the craft reference book. Yun'er felt that she was deaf and could not hear or hear anything clearly. The books here, in addition to the making of zuò Ming, are more samples of various patterns, each of which has hundreds or thousands of patterns, including cloth, Chinese knots, beads, silk screen flowers, artificial flowers, embroidery, etc., etc., which are really varied, colorful, dazzling, and dizzying! And then there are so many calligraphy, sculptures, ...... No, Yun'er is a little dazzled and dizzy!

finally chose some dynasties that were more suitable for Yun'er, Lan Lan said: "Let's stop here today, my aunt is tired, let's go out to breathe." ”

"No, these two Mr. Xu books haven't been paid yet."

"I didn't hand it in until the door." The more Lan Lan was afraid of her aunt's cowardice, the more her aunt exposed her hillbilly nature, which made Lan Lan lament.
