Chapter 541: A Promise Under the Stars
At this time, He Yaonan, who was drunk and staggering, was helped in by Chen Ran and Ma Rui, two grooms, and behind him was a group of young men who were shouting to make trouble in the cave room.
Hu Hui hurriedly got up to pick it up.
When Zhu Min saw Chen Ran, a flush appeared on his cheeks, and he walked over after Hu Hui.
The young men "roared" and coaxed, causing Hu Hui to blush for a while.
He Wei and the others parked the car and came downstairs to Uncle He's house, just when they heard a string of men and women laughing upstairs, and turned their heads to look at He Qingdong: "Can't we go up?" ”
"It's boring to have so many strangers. What's more, Yao Nan was so drunk that he couldn't make trouble in the cave room. He Qingdong said, smiling at He Wei, "So curious, wait for you and me to be active in the cave room." ”
"Who's curious!" He Wei glanced at him, but the tips of her ears trembled uncontrollably.
"I'm curious." He Qingdong hugged her and kissed her, and said longingly: "I don't look forward to that day all night." ”
"Why is it night?" He Wei asked more, and she blushed first after asking. Hurriedly turned his head away from his smiling eyes.
On a summer night when frogs chirped and insects chirped, the two walked back to the house with their fingers interlocked. The two figures, one tall and one short, were stretched longer and longer by the street lights until light and darkness blended together.
"Tired or not?" He Qingdong asked thoughtfully. I didn't take a nap today, and I accompanied the old man to meet a lot of people, and socializing is also a hard job.
"Not tired." He Wei shook her head obediently.
I accidentally looked up and saw the night sky of Kyoto, which had always been gray. Tonight is unexpectedly decorated with stars, and he can't help but bend his eyebrows, shake his arm and say, "There are so many stars tonight." ”
"Would you like to see it up close?" He Qingdong was so happy to see her. With an idea in mind, he pulled her up and walked forward quickly.
"Where?"
"Look at the stars."
“……”
He Qingdong sent a text message to the old man, then went home and brought his coat, tent, moisture-proof mat and other camping equipment, and drove Xiao Nizi all the way to the white grass in Fangshan.
After a drive of more than 100 kilometers, it was close to midnight when I drove up the "Gaoping Baicao" scenic area, which is known as the "natural mountaintop garden" at an altitude of about 2,000 meters.
He Wei couldn't resist the drowsiness in the car and took a nap, and when she woke up, she found that she was already on the parking apron.
Huge parking apron. At night, the car was parked.
He Wei rubbed her sleepy eyes, unable to believe her eyes: "Strange." On a big night, so many people go up the mountain. ”
He Qingdong didn't know why, when he was still in high school, he didn't need a ticket at that time. You can drive directly to the top of the mountain along the winding road. Not anymore. Not only is there a gate post to sell tickets, but also limited to this and that, and the car cannot go directly to the top of the mountain, so it can only be parked on the parking apron that is still a section away from the "hilltop garden", and it is even farther away from the meadows all over the mountains.
"It's cold in the mountains, put on your coat." He Qingdong took into account the temperature difference between the mountains and the city, so he specially brought two thick coats, but he still forgot about one - she was wearing a skirt, and the skirt was wider. It can't stop the clear mountain breeze at night.
So, both coats went to her. One was draped on her shoulders and the other was tied around her waist, and only after it was done did he open the car door and pull her out of the car.
He Wei couldn't cry and laughed: "You don't have to wear so much, it's not very cold, and it's all given to me, what should you do?" ”
"I'm not cold. You've just fallen asleep and you'll catch a cold if you don't pay attention to keeping warm. He Qingdong patted her head dotingly, then walked around to the back of the car and took out the camping things from the trunk.
He Wei wanted to come forward and help. Where would He Qingdong let her carry the tent and only stuff her with a bag of food. This was prepared for them by Lao Feng.
Seeing He Dashao rummaging through the storage room and finding the tent and sleeping bag, Lao Feng guessed that they would definitely not go home to sleep tonight. No matter where you go to play, if you are young and camping, if you don't prepare some food, you won't just sit and watch the stars (Lao Feng: That's the truth, there are so many romantic cells for He Dashao).
But it was too late to marinate the barbecue ingredients temporarily, so Lao Feng picked out some fruits at home, as well as dried meat, dried shrimp, and dried squid that had nothing to roast during the day, and made a bag full of fresh mung bean cakes, osmanthus candy, chicken cakes and other foods made two days ago, and also put a few cans of beer intimately.
When it was handed to He Qingdong at that time, the folds on Lao Feng's face were all smiling chrysanthemums. also gave He Qingdong a "you know" look, which made He Dashao not touch his head for a long time. It wasn't until just now, when I handed the bag to Xiao Nizi, that I swept the words "Yanjing Beer" from the corner of my eyes to the mouth of the bag, and I didn't understand it slightly. I couldn't help but smile.
The parking apron is almost full, and there will be no shortage of people on the top of the mountain.
On thousands of acres of meadows, tents are set up at intervals in sparse places, and in dense places, several tents are set up together. Although it is midnight, there are still many people sitting in front of the tent, eating barbecue and drinking beer around the campfire.
Seeing He Wei and the two, he didn't seem surprised, he only said "two more", and then turned his head to continue the ongoing topic.
made He Wei and He Qingdong wonder for a while. It's rare to go up the mountain to see the stars, and you can come across such a huge team. I just don't know if this "Gaoping Baicao" has so many people coming to watch the stars every night, or just tonight?
The two of them didn't plan to get together in a crowded place, so they picked an empty spot.
He Qingdong first took out a bottle of fruit-flavored insect repellent. That's not good for camping in the summer – snakes and ants, mosquitoes. Even if the 2,000-meter-high summit is so cool that they need to be wrapped in a quilt, it can't stop their "enthusiastic visit".
After a careful spray, a double tent was taken out, propped up on the insect-sprayed meadow, and then covered with a moisture-proof mat and two single sleeping bags.
He Wei hung the food bag and backpack on the hook in the corner of the tent, and took advantage of the night to take out a few star anise sachets from the space to prevent mosquitoes and insects, and stuffed them into the four corners of the tent. This is called double insurance.
After that, the two sat down side by side at the entrance of the tent and looked up at the starry sky.
Sure enough, the starry sky here is much clearer than the military compound where the He family is located, and it is perhaps two thousand meters closer to the sky. A few individual stars even give the impression that they are within reach.
He Qingdong took her into his arms, lowered his head and asked, "Is it cold?" ”
He Wei smiled: "You're not cold." How can I be cold. "Does this guy want to be so angry? The temperature at the top of the mountain is estimated to be about 20 degrees, and he is only wearing a short-sleeved T-shirt, and his palm is still hot.
He Qingdong looked back at the two sleeping bags in the tent, and said regretfully: "What a mistake, I can't find a bigger sleeping bag at home, otherwise I can keep you warm." ”
He Wei scratched his face with her index finger: "Are you ashamed?" ”
No, the cheeky man actually bit her index finger. I also sucked back and forth a few times, and when I was done, I summed up the statement aloud: "It's very sweet." ”
He Wei was completely ashamed of his cheekiness, and quickly withdrew her hand. Turn your head to look away.
He Dashao let her hide, pulled hard, took the person into his arms, and did everything he could. finally made my daughter-in-law happy. The two continued to admire the beautiful starry sky.
The closest to their tent was a group of student parties, both boys and girls, but with a large proportion of boys, so they stirred up the topic of football.
Mi Xiaotang hugged her knees and head, propped her chin and looked around boredly. The girl who was traveling with her was either her brother's classmate or her brother's classmate's girlfriend, and there was no topic after chatting a few words. And her brother is talking about football with a few boys at this moment, and she is not interested in football at all, and she is about to be tortured to sleep. I heard someone say two more. And at first glance, it is a couple, simply by the bright light of the bonfire. It was interesting to enjoy the interaction of the couple in the distance, which was much more interesting than the topics of who passed the ball well and who shot accurately. But look at it, hey, why is the girl in that couple so much like her idol. Rubbing your eyes and looking closely, it really looks like.
At this moment, Mi Xiaotang couldn't sit still, slapped her buttocks, and ran forward a few big steps with the grass clippings that had not been dusted off, and opened her eyes wide to distinguish, not to mention the image, it was simply it, and she couldn't help jumping up in surprise: "He Wei!" He Wei is really you! Emma, why do you look so much like you, and you come to see the meteor shower? What a coincidence......"
"Meteor shower?" He Wei sat up straight and looked at He Qingdong.
"Huh? You didn't know there was a meteor shower tonight, did you? So what are you doing here? ”
"Let's ......" He Wei touched her nose and said weakly, "Let's take a look at the stars." ”
"Poof......" Mi Xiaotang, who understood the situation, smiled so hard that he couldn't straighten his waist: "I said, you are lucky, just take a day to go up the mountain to see the stars, it is the day of the meteor shower, let my brother and their fans who have been planning for more than half a month live......"
Before Mi Xiaotang finished speaking, someone in front of the other tents excitedly shouted: "It's coming, it's coming!" Meteors are coming! ”
A cluster of shining stars with a small tail tore through the quiet starry sky, slid down from the sky, and finally disappeared into the northeast of the canopy.
The people on the top of the mountain all stood up in unison, holding their breath to watch the meteors pass by.
When the starry sky was calm again, he began to chatter.
"Wow wow! It's really beautiful! It's a pity I forgot to take the camera. ”
"Why is there only one, in vain we have waited so long......"
"Don't worry, there will definitely be one later. The forecast says it's a meteor shower, so it's impossible to just ...... this one."
"The current weather forecast is inaccurate, I didn't see Typhoon No. 13, and it was said that it landed elsewhere, and it turned out to be ......choking enough in the Haicheng area."
"There will always be mistakes, look, isn't this coming again?"
After the first singleton meteor disappeared in a flash, the second meteor is called a meteor shower. Like fireworks rising into the sky and then blooming, most of the night sky in the northeast corner is lit up.
He Wei couldn't help but cheer with the crowd: "It's so beautiful!" ”
"It's beautiful." He Qingdong stood behind her and supported her waist, letting her lean on her chest to find a comfortable position, so as not to keep looking up at the sky and tired her neck.
Many people brought video equipment, but when the meteor shower really came, they forgot to press the shutter.
There are also people who have already thought about the content of the wish, and wait for the moment when the meteor crosses by, and pull up the boyfriend/girlfriend around them; If you are single, you will clasp your palms in front of your chest and make a heartfelt wish for it. However, it wasn't until the sky was quiet that everyone was still smashing their mouths and saying, "It's so beautiful," and "Why did you forget to take a picture," that they suddenly remembered, "Oh, I forgot to make a wish." ”
There was a frustrated echo below:
"Sister, I forgot ...... too"
"Meteors are too beautiful, I'm too stupid!"
"Hahaha......"
No one forgot that some couples also unscrupulously kissed passionately under the meteor in front of everyone.
He Dashao also wanted to come, but He Wei covered his mouth in time. But in the end, he succeeded in a sneak attack.
"I love you baby."
Brilliant meteors slid down the sky in droves, and he made a solemn oath in her ear.
The whole meteor shower lasted for about an hour and a half, with the longest interval of about 20 minutes and the shortest only a dozen seconds. When the curtain came down completely, it was two o'clock in the morning.
Mi Xiaotang stretched out with satisfaction and sighed happily: "I'm so lucky!" This is the first time I've seen a meteor shower up close, and I missed it last time because of the rain...... However, "
As soon as the words changed, he shook He Wei's arm envy and said: "You said that your luck is so good, you can hit a meteor shower by looking at any star, and the time is also spicy, as soon as you arrive, we will start the show, but we will go up the mountain at half past eight, feed the mosquitoes for a long time, you see me here, and here......"
Mi Xiaotang pulled up her trousers and showed He Wei a few mosquito bags on her calves: "I have eaten for nothing for a few days, the mosquitoes in this mountain are really ruthless, suck me such a big bag, and I specially wore long sleeves and long pants ......"
He Wei saw that the bitten mosquito bag on her leg was indeed a little scary, so she turned around and took off the backpack from the hook, took out a tube-shaped panacea from the space with the backpack, unscrewed the lid and smeared it on Mi Xiaotang: "Although this ointment is not for mosquito bites, it is also very effective, don't scratch it after applying, it won't itch for a while." ”
"Weiwei, you are so well prepared, you even brought the ointment." Mi Xiaotang gave her a thumbs up in admiration.
He Wei smiled, and then gave her two insect repellent sachets: "It doesn't matter if you wear it on your body or put it in a sleeping bag, in short, don't lose it, it's effective against mosquitoes, snakes and ants." ”
Of course, the rice candy will not be thrown away, on the contrary, it will be well collected. This is a hand-embroidered sachet by He Wei, which is much more exquisite than the machines on the market.
"It's getting late, it's time to go to bed." He Qingdong walked over and interrupted the conversation between the two girls.
Mi Xiaotang stuck out her tongue, waved her paw at He Wei, and ran away with interest: "Then Weiwei, I'm leaving, thank you for the ointment and sachet, good night, see you tomorrow morning!" ”
He Qingdong's chin rested on his daughter-in-law's shoulder, and he hummed unhappily: "The sachet was given to her husband in ancient times." ”
He Wei tilted her head and smiled at him: "Are you jealous?" ”
I thought he would definitely not admit it, but he nodded solemnly, and pestered her to make a promise that "I will not give people sachets casually in the future, and I will only send my family and dolls of Xiaolongbao's age". (To be continued.) )
