Chapter 32 Seven hugs and eight tie a daughter-in-law
Mid-Autumn Festival, don't go home!
Just over here with Uncle Tian Zhentian.
Anyway, I go home for the festival every year, and when I go to school in the provincial capital, I also go home for the Mid-Autumn Festival, and it's okay if I don't go back once in a while. I have only been out for more than ten days, and even if my parents are concerned, they are limited in their thoughts. If you talk to your parents, they will understand.
Accompany the ancestors and grandchildren of the Tian family to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival, and tomorrow I will take Tian Zhen and Uncle Tian to Fuyun Mountain for a good time.
Tian Zhen has lost his father since he was seven or eight years old, and his mother remarried early, and he has been dependent on his grandfather and sister all these years, and I am afraid he has not gone out to play once. Although Fuyun Mountain in Qiao County is not a scenic spot, it is not a tourist attraction, so it is good to take Tian Zhen out to play!
"Uncle Nie, aren't you going back?"
Hearing Nie Yun say that he would not go home, Tian Zhen was subconsciously happy, but then said with a little worry: "The grandparents in the provincial city ...... them."
"It's okay, I'll just call back and talk about it. By the way, when we wait for the evening, let's call Tian Tian again! ”
Nie Yun smiled slightly and said.
Hearing that Nie Yun said that he would not go back, Tian Zhen was indeed a little happy in his heart, and the meal was very sweet. The first time he ate Tian Zhenbao's dumplings, Nie Yun also had a great appetite, a total of four large plates of dumplings, except for Uncle Tian and Tian Zhen who ate one plate each, the rest fell into Nie Yun's stomach.
After eating, I called home and told me about the situation here, and Nie's father and Nie mother also expressed their understanding, just let Nie Yun stay in his hometown with peace of mind.
Hearing Nie Yun's words, he was much more cheerful than before, and Nie's father and mother were very relieved. In fact, what Nie's father and Nie mother were most worried about was that the civil service examination and Li Xiaoli's matter hit Nie Yun too hard. Now that Nie Yun has nothing to do, the second elder naturally has nothing else to ask for.
There was no need to work in the afternoon, Nie Yun simply drove the Hummer and took Tian Zhen to catch another trip.
The village where the market is located is more than 20 miles away from Majiatun, and Tian Zhen went to the market early in the morning to buy things, just to make dumplings for Nie Yun to eat before Nie Yun left at noon, which made Nie Yun a little moved.
I went to the market again, I got some fish, meat, and everything, and the reunion dinner in the evening was always better. I also bought some mooncakes.
When I went back, it was already more than four o'clock in the afternoon, Tian Zhen was packing up and preparing dinner, Nie Yun helped, it was just dark, and a large table of dishes was ready.
Taking out a bottle of liquor he bought earlier, Nie Yun poured a small cup for Uncle Tian and poured a little himself. Eating the reunion dinner and drinking a little wine to admire the moon, Nie Yun and the ancestors and grandchildren of the Tian family were very happy. Even Tian Zhen strongly asked to drink a small glass of liquor, and his face was flushed.
During this period, Nie Yun took the initiative to call Tian Tian's dormitory.
Let Tian Tian and Grandpa say a few words, Tian Zhen and Tian Tian Tian The two sisters chatted again, chatting, chatting, Tian Zhen's voice here became smaller and smaller, and he peeked at Nie Yun from time to time, and his already somewhat red face seemed to be a little redder......
Nie Yun didn't know how much wine he drank at night, and he didn't know when he fell asleep in a daze.
In the early morning, the sound of food stir-frying woke Nie Yun up.
Opening his eyes, Nie Yun looked around, but found that he was not in his own house at all, but sleeping on another kang. The clothes are still there, but the coat and shoes are missing. Between the futons, there was a faint fragrance of a girl.
"This is the ......" got up quickly, and Nie Yun found that the kang head was neatly stacked, stacked with a set of sportswear that he had bought for Tian Zhen before.
"Xiao Zhen's room?" Nie Yun smiled bitterly, he was drunk yesterday and slept all night in Tian Zhen's room?
Wait a minute! Seemingly...... Tian Zhen's family only has two big kangs. That Tian Zhen ...... last night
Tian Zhen followed his grandfather to deal with it all night last night? Or is it ...... Why don't you spend the night on this big kang? After looking at it, this kang is not small, it seems that Tian Zhen and Tian Tian sisters slept on it before, and there was no problem at all to sleep two people.
Shaking his head, Nie Yun hurriedly got up and put on his shoes and walked out of the house.
In the kitchen, Tian Zhen was heating the meal, Uncle Tian was smoking dry tobacco at the door, and the charcoal ball was playing with Xiao Huang in the yard.
Nie Yun smiled bitterly, I hope that I was honest after I got drunk last night, and I didn't do anything else!
Tian Zhen heated the meal and brought it out of the kitchen.
"That...... Xiao Zhen, I drank too much last night......" Nie Yun scratched his head and said to Tian Zhen with some embarrassment.
"It's okay, it was a holiday yesterday, it's okay to drink more." Tian Zhen's face was a little red, but his speech was quite normal, which made Nie Yun breathe a sigh of relief in his heart.
After breakfast, Tian Zhen changed into a freshly washed sportswear and went to Fuyun Mountain with Nie Yun to play. Originally, the two wanted to take Uncle Tian there, but Uncle Tian refused. Uncle Tian has lived so much, and he has already been to Fuyun Mountain in the county, and I heard him say that he knew an old Taoist in Fuyunguan in his early years. Fuyun Mountain has been renovated several times these days, and it has long been unrecognizable, and there are few true Taoists in Fuyun Temple, and Uncle Tian is too lazy to see it. Besides, the old family always likes to be quiet and doesn't like to go to places that are too noisy.
Hetian Zhen got into the car and drove for an hour, and he had already arrived at the Fuyun Mountain Scenic Area.
The road up the mountain was blocked by a huge gatehouse, only a small door was left below, next to it was the place where the tickets were sold, and the car was parked, Nie Yun bought tickets for himself and Tian Zhen, and the charcoal balls were free of charge, and the two entered the scenic spot.
Pets are allowed in these places in the scenic area, but a pet certificate is required. Of course, in fact, no one checked whether there was a pet license or not.
Along the way, in the scenic area, there are many stalls selling handicrafts on both sides of the road.
There are also some "ring" stalls, on which there are a bunch of handicrafts, small toys and so on. Buy five wire rings for one dollar, throw them on those small handicraft toys two or three meters apart, and you can take away whatever you hit.
Nie Yun and Tian Zhen played for a while, and only caught a few handicrafts such as bracelets.
Continuing to walk, there was a man leading a tall horse halfway up the mountain, with a saddle on his body, beautifully decorated, and he spent twenty dollars to ride once. Tian Zhen tried it, but he was too frightened to move on horseback, and Nie Yun simply turned over on the horse and protected him behind, so that Tian Zhen could have a good experience of horseback riding......
Fuyun Mountain is just a small hill in the end, with a height of four or five hundred meters, and it will not take long to reach the Fuyun Temple on the mountainside.
The reason why this floating cloud view is a little famous is because, during the Northern and Southern Dynasties, a well-known literati surnamed Liu came here and wrote a book, which was circulated in the world.
The story of the literati and the Taoist temple, there is nothing to say, in short, the literati came to the Fuyun Temple, and also wrote a masterpiece, as for whether it was written here, then it is estimated that no one knows......
The other one is because of the thousand-year-old ginkgo tree!
The literati surnamed Liu is not well-known in the history of Chinese culture, but this ginkgo tree is the first ginkgo tree in the world, and there is a saying of "seven hugs, eight ties, and one daughter-in-law".
It is said that in the Qing Dynasty, a scholar went to the provincial capital to catch the exam, and walked to the side of Fuyun Mountain, which happened to be raining, so he ran to the halfway up the mountain to avoid the rain.
It just so happened that a little daughter-in-law was also sheltering from the rain under this tree, and the big tree was like a canopy, and the rain couldn't get in at all.
The scholar realized that the ginkgo tree was too big, so he wanted to measure how thick the trunk of the ginkgo tree was. So he stretched out his arms and hugged the ginkgo tree seven times in a row, and when he reached the eighth time, he was almost at the place where the little daughter-in-law was hiding from the rain, and the scholar was embarrassed to hug it again, so he measured it with his hands. The hand stretched out the distance from the thumb to the middle finger, and the local dialect is called "zha", and measured eight more zha before arriving at the daughter-in-law's place.
As a result, the circumference of this ginkgo tree has become "seven hugs and eight ties, one daughter-in-law".
Nie Yun didn't know what the scholar's arm length was, but there was always one meter five, and eight zha was almost one meter three or four, plus a little daughter-in-law, this ginkgo tree was always twelve or thirteen meters long, that is to say, this ginkgo tree, with a diameter of more than four meters, could indeed be called the first ginkgo tree in the world!
This world's first ginkgo tree is in the Floating Cloud Temple, and Nie Yun took Tian Zhen and walked towards the Floating Cloud Temple.
On the road before, Nie Yun also saw some large pine trees with a diameter of one meter on some mountains, these pine trees were seventy or eighty years old, but Nie Yun did not see the slightest cyan aura in them. Nie Yun couldn't help but have a little doubt about his previous conjecture about the cyan aura.
Now go and see the world's first ginkgo tree, just in time to verify it again!
The floating cloud temple is halfway up the mountainside, the Taoist temple is on higher ground, and you have to walk the stone steps of forty or fifty steps to enter the Taoist temple. With Tian Zhen and the charcoal ball, but in a moment, Nie Yun had already arrived at the door of Fuyun Temple.
The door of the Floating Cloud View is a front hall, and the hall is dedicated to the Sanqing Patriarch, and it is only when you bypass this front hall that you can officially enter the Floating Cloud Temple.
Hetian Zhen first put incense on the front hall, and the two of them and a dog entered the temple.
When he arrived at the temple, Nie Yun saw at a glance that in the center of the courtyard of the Taoist temple, there was a huge ginkgo tree with a diameter of about five meters, this ginkgo tree was only about seven or eight meters high, and the crown was huge, covering half of the courtyard. A large hole had rotted out of the trunk, and it was no problem for three or five people to fit it into this big hole alone. The whole ginkgo tree is surrounded by stone railings, it is golden autumn, and the ginkgo leaves are golden, which is beautiful!
Without the slightest hesitation, Nie Yun immediately turned on the Lingmu Pupil state.
The spiritual veins in the trunk of this thousand-year-old ginkgo tree suddenly appeared in Nie Yun's sight.
"Huh?"
And at the same time as seeing the spiritual veins of this thousand-year-old ginkgo tree, Nie Yun suddenly realized that the spiritual energy in the spiritual veins of this thousand-year-old ginkgo tree turned out to be dark blue, with a hint of purple. It's a lot deeper than the cyan aura in his eyes!
These dark blue and lilac aura, instead of being absorbed by Nie Yun when Nie Yun opened the Spirit Wood Pupil, actually produced a powerful attraction, faintly wanting to attract this cyan aura in Nie Yun's eyes!
