Out of the ancient village of Dong Township (novella) Zhang Baotong

After Yun Mei left, Wen Li had no companion, and felt very lonely in the room alone, so she wanted to call the Guilin tour guide so that he could come to talk to her or take her out for a walk. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info but, after a few hesitations, I still held back. I thought that Yun Mei would come back at nine o'clock, but at eleven o'clock, I didn't see Yun Mei's shadow. Wen Li thought that Yunmei must have let her boyfriend stay. However, the Dong people have customs, and unmarried sisters are not allowed to stay in a man's house. If you let people know, it's a very embarrassing thing, and I'm afraid that I won't dare to look up at people when I walk in the future. Thinking about it like this, I feel that Yun Mei's courage is really big enough.

Next, after three days of meetings, Wen Li almost did not leave the hotel. In the evening of that day, after dinner, the organizing committee informed everyone that everyone would have a day off tomorrow, and they could go to the city or tourist spots in Guilin casually, and then they would go to Detian and Tongling to visit and travel on the spot. Wen Li knew that Yun Mei was going to Yangshuo with her boyfriend, and she was unaccompanied and didn't know where to go, so she had to call Brother Xu.

Brother Xu was leading a group in Yangshuo, and he heard that Wen Li was in Guilin, and he rushed over from Yangshuo early the next morning. As soon as he entered the room, he saw that Wen Li was the only one, so he said, "You live alone?" Wen Li said, "There is also a Dong sister from Longxi Township, who asked her boyfriend to pick her up last night." The Guilin tour guide said, "Then why didn't you say it earlier, so that I could come and sleep with you." Otherwise, how lonely and lonely you would be sleeping here alone. Wen Li pouted her nose and said, "I won't let you accompany me, with you, I will learn badly." The Guilin tour guide smiled, "I just want to teach you to learn bad, if you don't learn bad, how can I get you." ”

Wen Li asked while packing her things, "You came here so early, what about the tourists you brought?" The Guilin tour guide said, "I handed it over to someone else to bring." Wen Li said, "Then you don't have a white belt?" The tour guide said, "It's nothing, it's just a matter of earning 2,000 yuan less." ”

As soon as Wen Li heard this, she immediately straightened up and said, "How can you lose 2,000 yuan just to come here for a few hours, which is our four months' salary!" The Guilin tour guide smiled disapprovingly and said, "What is this, there is a lot of money in the world, can you earn it all?" As he spoke, he took the opportunity to touch Wen Li's cheek with his hand and said, "It's not because I miss you too much, I want to see you early." ”

The two walked out of the hotel side by side, and a brand-new black sedan was parked on the side of the road outside the door. The Guilin tour guide opened the car door and let Wen Li into the car, and he himself got into the car. Wen Li asked, "Is this your car?" The Guilin tour guide said, "No, I borrowed it." I'll buy a car when we get married. Wen Li said, "I don't want to get married." The Guilin tour guide said, "Don't do this, or I'll be a single for the rest of my life." Wen Li said, "I don't believe it." ”

The two came to Elephant Trunk Hill first, from where they could see yachts sailing down the Li River under Elephant Trunk Mountain. Wen Li looked at it and was fascinated by this beautiful scenery, so she asked the Guilin tour guide to take a picture of herself. The Guilin tour guide took a picture of her, handed the camera to others, and then ran over and put his arm around Wen Li's neck and asked others to take a photo of the two of them. It just so happened that Wen Li was wearing the clothes of an orthodox Dong sister, and she was young and beautiful. As a result, tourists mistakenly thought she was a staff member in the park, and they all came over to ask her to accompany her for a group photo. When the Guilin tour guide saw this situation, he hurriedly pulled Wen Li out of the park.

Out of the park, the Guilin tour guide said to Wen Li, "If you wear this dress, people will treat you as a staff member of a tourist attraction wherever you go." With that, he drove to a clothing store in the center of the city.

As soon as she entered the door, the Guilin tour guide said to the female clerk, "You see what she wears the most suitable and beautiful, and you have to change her clothes from head to toe." The female clerk glanced at Wen Li and said, "Yo, this girl is so beautiful!" Then, he pointed to a white T-shirt with light blue denim shorts for the Guilin tour guide to recommend, and the Guilin tour guide also chose a pale pink bra and a white leather sandals for Wen Li. Wen Li went into the fitting room and changed her clothes and came out, as if she had changed into a different person. Walking on the street in the bright sunshine, it suddenly illuminates a large area of Guilin Street in summer. The Guilin tour guide held her hand affectionately while constantly looking at her with appreciative eyes. Seeing his girlfriend so young and beautiful, he felt that he was the most glorious man on the entire street.

While visiting the Seven Star Rocks, a small shop in front of the door specializing in Dong silver jewelry attracted Wen Li's attention. The shop is not big, only three or five square meters, but the Dong family has all kinds of silver jewelry, not only fine workmanship, but also very cheap. Wen Li wanted to go in and have a look, but Brother Xu immediately pulled her aside and said, "The things here are all fakes." Wen Li asked, "How is it a fake?" But we Dong people are not allowed to make fakes. The Guilin tour guide smiled and said, "You didn't see that Dong sister is also fake." ”

After the two got into the car, Brother Xu said to Wen Li, "When you marry me, I will also open a store for you, and you can sell the silver jewelry made by your grandfather and uncles in your village here." The guaranteed price is better than selling it in your township. Ke Wenli sighed softly and said, "Then it depends on whether I have this kind of blessing." ”

The two had lunch on the street and drove to Reed Flute Rock. It was raining heavily. The two of them ran from the parking lot to the entrance to the Reed Flute Rock in the rain. However, when passing by a stall, Wen Li slipped on her foot, and although she did not fall, she touched a calligraphy and painting on the stall to the ground. Wen Li saw that the calligraphy and painting fell on the ground and got a little muddy water, so she hurriedly picked it up and put it on the stall.

The owner of the stall was an elderly man, and when he saw that Wen Li was about to leave after picking up the calligraphy and paintings, he immediately called Wen Li to stop, "Girl, don't go." You have to compensate me for making this calligraphy and painting like this. When Guide Xu saw the old man holding Wen Li back, his face sank, and asked, "How to compensate?" The old man didn't think about it, and said, "At least five thousand dollars." ”

When Wen Li heard this, she was startled, and said, "I'm afraid that your calligraphy and painting are only made of gold?" The old man said, "You know, this calligraphy and painting was inscribed by Mao Gong himself." Much more valuable than gold, of course. Mao Gong, do you know Mao Gong? Wen Li shook her head and said, "I don't know." The old man said, "It's Chairman Mao, his old man." Of course, Wen Li knew Chairman Mao, because it was he who announced the founding of the People's Republic of China.
