Chapter 20: Slender West Lake

Yangzhou is a place worth visiting, and it is also the only second city that Wang Mo included in his itinerary.

Wang Mo has done a lot of strategies about Yangzhou, from the private residence of Internet celebrities to the well-known Slender West Lake 24th Bridge, Wang Mo always feels that time is not enough when calculating the itinerary here.

Because there are too many scenic spots, I really can't take care of the places I want to go.

However, no matter how much I longed and looked forward to it before, now I don't have the passion I had before. Without passion and the desire to watch, there is no place to put time in abundance!

Because there is no subway in Yangzhou, the square of the railway station is crowded with people queuing up to take a taxi. Taxis come one after another, but there is still a long queue.

A handsome driver uncle opened the car door for Zhao Qian and asked them where they were going. Since coming to Nanjing, every time I take a taxi, Wang Mo opens the door for Zhao Qian, and the two of them will sit side by side in the back row. However, today's Zhao Qian sat in the passenger seat, turned her face sideways and said to the driver: "Master, we are going to Slender West Lake, do you want to find a pharmacy first, is there a pharmacy over there?" ”

"Some girls."

The driver's uncle glanced at Zhao Qian, and then at Wang Mo in the back seat through the rearview mirror, and saw that the expressions of the two people were a little indifferent, as if they had guessed something.

The driver was a handsome man, with a cleanly shaved beard, short hair, which could still be seen to be carefully combed, and uneven cream remained on the ends of his sideburns.

Starting the car, the driver glanced at the beauty beside him again, smiled and asked, "Come to Yangzhou for tourism?" ”

"Hmm!" Zhao Qian nodded, there were no extra words, and her eyes stared straight at the road ahead.

After a little foreshadowing, the driver said tightly: "It's good, just in time for ......the summer vacation, I think, you should still be a student!" ”

"Hmm!" Zhao Qian nodded: "Freshman!" ”

Hearing this, the driver smiled, looked at Wang Mo in the rearview mirror again, and asked, "Young man, what about you?" You're classmates, aren't you? ”

Wang Mo knew that the driver asked this on purpose, the age difference was 6 years, even if Wang Mo didn't look old, he couldn't hide his approximate age.

"No, I'm already a working master." Wang Mo shook his head and said to him.

The driver's uncle was obviously not surprised, and glanced at Wang Mo in the rearview mirror again, as if he felt a little proud in his eyes, and took the opportunity to ask again: "Oh, that's it!" Pretty good! The boy is older and knows how to hurt his girlfriend......"

"I'm not his girlfriend!" Without waiting for the driver to finish tentatively, Zhao Qian suddenly interrupted him, glanced at the back seat, and said, "We are relatives." ”

The driver's uncle choked, twitched his cheeks, and nodded with a smile: "Oh, oh, so that's it!" ”

Compared with yesterday's acquiescence, it was also misunderstood by others, Zhao Qian's sensitivity made Wang Mo grow wormwood in the depths of his heart. Deep in the lush grass, there are corpses and broken arms......

The taxi stopped at the door of a pharmacy on the edge of Slender West Lake, paid the fare, Wang Mo pointed ahead and said to Zhao Qian: "I'll buy medicine, you wait for me here!" ”

"Hmm!"

Nodding, Zhao Qian raised her eyes and saw that there was a convenient supermarket not far in front of her, and her eyebrows collapsed.

Walking into the pharmacy, Wang Mo was a little embarrassed, deliberately walked around the shelves, and saw that there were no other customers, so he asked the young female cashier for emergency contraceptive pills.

Glancing meaningfully at the young man in front of him, the cashier took a small box and handed it to him: "It is effective within 24 hours, but this medicine will destroy immunity, and you can't take more than three pills in a year......"

"yes, got it!"

Wang Mo scratched his scalp and took out his mobile phone to scan the code to pay.

The cashier looked at Wang Mo, thought about it and said, "Eh...... You can buy two more boxes of vitamin tablets, which are very effective in restoring immunity! ”

"No thanks," Wang Mo was promoted to buy vitamins every time he entered the pharmacy, in his opinion, vitamin tablets were not serious health products, and he was very resistant subconsciously.

The female cashier said some threatening words again, probably realizing that the man in front of her was a scumbag, and he didn't care about the woman's life or death after buying medicine, so she gave up in disappointment.

Walking out of the pharmacy, Wang Mo handed the box to Zhao Qian and unscrewed a bottle of pure water for her.

A small pill, Wang Mo watched Zhao Qian tear open the package and put it in his mouth, his expression was calm, the slight wind blew, and the sideburns on his cheeks were flying.

With a handful of sideburns, Zhao Qian threw the medicine box into the trash, turned to Wang Mo and said, "I'm going to the supermarket." ”

"What to buy? I'll buy it for you. ”

"No need, just wait for me here!"

After Zhao Qian finished speaking, she saw Wang Mo looking at her with unknown eyes, hesitated for a moment, and explained, "I want to buy a private thing." ”

After Zhao Qian finished speaking, she squeezed out a malnourished smile in front of Wang Mo.

After buying what they needed, the two of them walked towards the Slender West Lake Scenic Area. The weather was not very good, not too strong in the sun, but muggy.

Zhao Qian grew up in a northern city, and was a little uncomfortable with the humid heat of the south for the first time. Plus the body is not too comfortable, and I am not too in the mood along the way.

When they were about to arrive at the ticket hall of Slender West Lake, an old woman on a tricycle suddenly stopped them and asked, "Eh, are you going to Slender West Lake?" ”

Wang Mo looked at her and nodded.

The old woman smiled and said, "Slender West Lake has nothing to do except water and bridges, so why don't you follow me on a street tour!" Eight attractions, charge you 100, how about it? ”

Generally, when encountering this kind of person, Wang Mo always turns his head and leaves, and will not give her a chance to continue talking at all. But I don't know why, now Wang Mo has become unassertive, looking at Zhao Qian beside him, without asking her opinion, but without his own thoughts.

Zhao Qian just didn't want to walk too much, took a look at the old lady's tricycle, and sat on it without thinking too much.

The old lady was overjoyed, maybe this kind of business was not too easy to pull, so she immediately turned around the tricycle, pulled the handbrake, and carried the two in opposite directions.

Talking about 8 scenic spots, the first is the Qianlong Emperor when he visited the Slender West Lake when he boarded the dock, there is a stone tablet standing in the pavilion on the riverbank, and the back is written 'Royal Horse Head'.

The 'horse' in the head of the horse is a typo, and it should be the 'royal dock', which means the dock where the emperor boarded the ship. It is said that the Qing Dynasty officials at that time deliberately used typos in order to make sycophants! The Manchu Qing Dynasty was the world on horseback, and there could be no stumbling blocks in front of the word 'horse', so the word 'stone' was removed.

Introducing the head of the royal horse, the old lady led Wang Mo and Zhao Qian forward. In front of you is the narrowest area of Slender West Lake, which looks more like a meandering river. Retro houses stand on the shores of the lake, and because they are open to the public, many people come here in the morning for morning tea.

Yangzhou citizens like to have a leisurely morning tea, so the morning tea house here is prosperous.

"Have you had breakfast? Would you like to experience it? The old woman suddenly asked Wang Mo and Zhao Qian, and seeing that the two hesitated, she pointed to the teahouse and said, "It doesn't matter, I promise you to go to eight scenic spots, and I will definitely take you there." ”

In the morning, I came out of the B&B only to find a pharmacy and catch a car, it is still early, travel is a matter of physical strength and energy, and not eating a full stomach will definitely affect the mood behind.

Wang Mo still couldn't make an opinion, and looked at Zhao Qian cowardly.

Seeing Zhao Qian nodded, he went to the bar to order.

The price list of the morning tea house is daunting, ranging from 5 yuan to 100 yuan for a steamed bun, and the price of cold dishes is even more expensive. Wang Mo asked for two moderately priced buns, and ordered dried shreds and hot soup, spending a few hundred!

Fortunately, the environment is good, and I think that it is also a place where the ancient emperor came, and I no longer care about the price in my heart!

Zhao Qian didn't have too much appetite, she threw away the 69 yuan crab roe bun without eating it, drank two sips of hot soup, and suddenly raised her face and said to Wang Mo: "Seriously, the food here is not too much to my taste,...... It's so light! ”

Wang Mo nodded hurriedly, and asked her with a funny expression if she wanted to eat something with a taste, which could be arranged at noon.

Zhao Qian picked up a napkin, squeezed it in the palm of her hand, thought about it and said, "If you have time, let's go eat hot pot?" ”
