Chapter Twenty-Seven: Go on an outing with your friends

On the first day of the National Day, Tang Yuyan, her mother, younger brother, and younger sister watched the military parade marking the 60th anniversary of the motherland on TV at home.

On the second day of the National Day, Tang Yuyan got up on time at six o'clock in the morning, took her mother, Tang Yuran and Tang Yuchen went to the ecological park to run, and when she came back, it was already seven o'clock, and at half past seven after breakfast, she put on her shoulder bag on time and said goodbye to her family, and went out to meet at school.

"Tang Yuyan, here, here" Xu Xinghai waved his hand at Tang Yuyan after seeing her, and then ran towards Tang Yuyan.

Tang Yuyan saw a small bus not far behind Xu Xinghai, and there were many classmates standing around the car.

After Xu Xinghai approached, Tang Yuyan pointed to the bus not far away and asked, "Don't tell me, let's go out by bus?" ”

Tang Yuyan is the kind of person who will feel sleepy when she takes a bus and a car, and under normal circumstances, she will not choose these two modes of transportation to travel.

"Yes, Song Jiayao said that there were almost 20 students who went out to play this time, so he rented a small bus from the school, saying that it was safe and convenient to travel this way." Xu Xinghai explained.

After Tang Yuyan and Xu Xinghai approached the bus, Tang Yuyan first said hello to Song Jiayao, Song Jiayao held a list in his hand, and after seeing Tang Yuyan, he signed a check-in on the list, and every time he arrived at a classmate, he would sign in.

After all the students arrived, Song Jiayao beckoned the students to get on the bus and prepared to leave.

Yesterday's National Day, Song Jiayao, who organized the event in the group, said, "Tomorrow we will go to the suburbs to play, and it is enough to bring 200 yuan per person, go to school before 8 o'clock in the morning, and then go by car together, and come back by car together at about 6 o'clock in the afternoon." ”

After the classmates who replied at the bottom said that there was no problem, Tang Yuyan also went to her mother to ask for 200 yuan.

Mother gave Tang Yuyan 300 yuan and said that she had 100 yuan left in case of emergency.

Tang Yuyan didn't ask what kind of car it was at the time, if she did, she might have bought some motion sickness stickers or something in advance, but now she has nothing to prepare, and she may fall asleep soon after getting in the car.

Not long after Tang Yuyan got into the car and sat down, Xu Xinghai also sat in the vacant seat next to Tang Yuyan.

After Tang Yuyan got on the bus, she counted the number of classmates on this trip, there were a total of 19 classmates, and the bus was 22 seats, so she didn't say anything when Xu Xinghai was sitting next to her.

After Tang Yuyan sat down in Xu Xinghai, she took out a box of chewing gum from her shoulder bag, took out two pills and handed them to Xu Xinghai, and then gave herself two pills.

The two were at the same table, and they sat next to each other on this trip, and they usually had common topics, but at this time, after no pressure to study, the two were chatting while chewing gum.

Half an hour after the departure, Tang Yuyan finally couldn't resist the sleepiness and fell asleep against the window in a daze. But my head hit the glass for a while, and it was very uncomfortable, so I frowned slightly.

After Xu Xinghai saw it, he stretched out his hand to help Tang Yuyan, and only after Tang Yuyan leaned on his shoulder did he put down his hand, Tang Yuyan instinctively felt comfortable sleeping, and finally stretched her eyebrows, and then slept more steadily.

Xu Xinghai looked down at Tang Yuyan's sleeping face, smiled, and began to close his eyes with his hands around his chest.

Since Xu Xinghai and Tang Yuyan's positions were in the last two rows, and the other classmates in the car were also drowsy, no one disturbed them with noise, and Tang Yuyan slept very peacefully along the way.

When he was about to arrive at his destination, Song Jiayao, who was sitting in the first row, got up and said to the students behind him, "Wake up, students, we will be at the destination in five minutes." ”

Of course, Song Jiayao also saw Xu Xinghai and Tang Yuyan sitting at the back, Xu Xinghai opened his eyes when Song Jiayao spoke, and after seeing Song Jiayao smiling at him with malicious intentions, Song Jiayao didn't care and sat down.

Xu Xinghai was afraid that Tang Yuyan would be embarrassed when he woke up and saw that he was sleeping on his shoulder, so he quietly moved Tang Yuyan's head and asked her to lean on the back of the back chair.

Then, he patted Tang Yuyan's arm, and after Tang Yuyan woke up slowly, Xu Xinghai said, "We'll be there soon." ”

Tang Yuyan was still a little dazed when she woke up, looked at Xu Xinghai and turned her head to look out the window. Now outside the window is a yellow ginkgo tree, which looks very beautiful.

Tang Yuyan looked at it attentively, and after a while, the car stopped, parked in front of a farmhouse, and after the driver stabilized the car, he opened the car door, got up and said to the students, "Students, we have arrived." ”

Because the driver is looking for by the school, he is also very patient with this group of students.

After getting out of the car, Tang Yuyan stretched her waist, twisted her neck, and after moving her hands and feet, she began to observe the surrounding scenery.

"Well, this place I'm looking for. This is the last time I came to dinner with my parents. Song Jiayao said after the students got off the bus.

Then Song Jiayao said, "It's still early, it's not even ten o'clock, let's move freely first, you can go to the artificial lake in the farmhouse to row a boat, you can also go to visit the Gui Garden in the mountain behind the farmhouse, and you can also go to see the ginkgo tree in front." At half past eleven, we gathered at the farmhouse and had lunch together. ”

After Song Jiayao finished speaking, the students scattered in groups and walked around.

Song Jiayao walked in front of Tang Yuyan, glanced at Xu Xinghai who was standing next to Tang Yuyan, turned his head and said to Tang Yuyan, "How about it, I didn't come to lose, let's go to the back mountain in a while, where are there a lot of osmanthus trees." By the way, let's go to the proprietress first to ask for two pockets of osmanthus flowers, and then pick osmanthus flowers. ”

Song Jiayao said as he grabbed Tang Yuyan's arm, then pulled Tang Yuyan to the farmhouse, and then looked back at Xu Xinghai, and after seeing Xu Xinghai once again giving her a forbidden gesture, he pursed his lips and stopped talking.

After Xu Xinghai saw Tang Yuyan leave, after a while, several classmates who usually played basketball with him walked over to him, and then several people went to the man-made lake of the farmhouse to row together.

This farmhouse is built in the suburbs, the mountains and rivers are beautiful, and it looks relaxed and pleasant, and it is very comfortable. Thinking about the National Day, there are people everywhere, and there are crowds of people, but I still think that the farmhouse is good.

Tang Yuyan walked into the farmhouse, and after looking at the modern decoration style, she couldn't help but praise the owner of this store for being really a caring person.

Then he said to Song Jiayao, "The decoration here is really good, it looks very comfortable." ”

"That's right, my mother also fell in love with the decoration style here, and plans to decorate our house like this in the future," Song Jiayao said happily, obviously she also liked the decoration style here.

After Tang Yuyan and Song Jiayao took the flower bags, they went to the osmanthus forest slowly along the way.

With the charming rich and fresh fragrance of osmanthus flowers, Tang Yuyan couldn't help but close her eyes and take a deep breath.

Song Jiayao saw Tang Yuyan standing under the osmanthus tree and closed her eyes to enjoy it, so she quietly walked over and shook the osmanthus tree where Tang Yuyan was.

After Tang Yuyan felt that a large number of osmanthus flowers had fallen on her body, she hurriedly opened her eyes and saw that it was Song Jiayao shaking the osmanthus tree, and hurriedly said, "Don't shake it, don't shake the osmanthus tree." ”

Song Jiayao smiled and said, "Xia Osmanthus Yule, you hurry up and catch it." After speaking, he shook the osmanthus tree vigorously.

Tang Yuyan continued to fall with her hands and feet in a panic, and Song Jiayao stopped shaking the tree after seeing that Tang Yuyan didn't catch much. said, "There are too few osmanthus flowers to catch, let's pick osmanthus flowers, and I still want to eat osmanthus cakes for a while." ”

After Song Jiayao finished speaking, he left the osmanthus tree where Tang Yuyan was, shifted the target, and began to tiptoe to pick up the small osmanthus flowers on the branches.

Some osmanthus flowers grow relatively tall, and if they can't be picked, they change to another tree and then pick them.

When picking osmanthus flowers, Song Jiayao told Tang Yuyan that this farmhouse has an interesting rule, that is, if diners want to eat snacks or osmanthus cakes made of osmanthus flowers, the osmanthus flowers used must be freshly picked, and they must be picked by the diners themselves.

Tang Yuyan thought that the marketing technique was quite special, maybe there are not many people coming now, but as long as it is publicized, there will definitely be a lot of people here.

Tang Yuyan followed Song Jiayao while chatting while picking osmanthus flowers, after picking a full pocket, Tang Yuyan said, "I think we can also use osmanthus to make an osmanthus sachet, and then put it in the wardrobe and on the bedside table, so that the clothes will also have the fragrance of osmanthus, and you can smell the fragrance of osmanthus when you sleep." ”

"Yes, the idea is great, I'll do two too." Song Jiayao said approvingly.

When Tang Yuyan and Song Jiayao both picked a bag of osmanthus flowers, the two returned to the farmhouse hand in arm. At this time, some students had already found a good place in the hall of the farmhouse and sat down to rest.

Song Jiayao found the proprietress and asked for two small pockets, one was handed to Tang Yuyan, and then after the two filled a small pocket of osmanthus respectively, Song Jiayao handed the rest of the osmanthus to the proprietress and said that it was troublesome for the proprietress to help make osmanthus cakes.

This farmhouse was opened by a young couple, and I heard Song Jiayao say that the proprietress likes food, osmanthus, and painting, so the man planted an osmanthus tree in this place.

Later, the hostess felt that it was too lonely, so the man built a farmhouse and stipulated that those who wanted to come needed to make a reservation in advance.

The man occasionally cooked, and hired a cook, two waiters and a cleaner. Every time someone makes a successful reservation, the chef will prepare fresh vegetables and meat a day in advance, because this time it is a group of students, and the proprietress also specially asked the chef to buy more meat ingredients.

"Have a great holiday with us!" After the meals were all served, Song Jiayao raised his drink glass and said loudly.

"Have a great holiday!" The students also raised their drink glasses and shouted, and then they talked and laughed and ate lunch.

Not to mention, the food in this farmhouse is very delicious, after Tang Yuyan tasted every dish, she happily said to Song Jiayao, who was sitting next to her and kept serving her vegetables, "Jiayao, the food here is delicious, so happy." ”

"If it's delicious, you can eat more, and see how thin you are." Song Jiayao said as he picked up a chicken leg and put it in Tang Yuyan's bowl.

Xu Xinghai sat opposite Tang Yuyan, watching Song Jiayao keep picking up dishes for Tang Yuyan, watching Tang Yuyan pick up every dish like a little squirrel and eat a bite, and eat more if she thinks it is delicious, puffing out her cheeks, which is very interesting.

In fact, Xu Xinghai is only 14 years old this year, two years older than Tang Yuyan.

Xu Xinghai was a year late in studying, and he was naughty when he was a child, so he was two years older than Tang Yuyan. But when the whole class is twelve or thirteen years old, Xu Xinghai will not be much older than the other students.

Now Xu Xinghai doesn't know what liking is, but when Tang Yuyan talks to him and shares things with her, he will be very happy.

If he can help Tang Yuyan through his own strength, he will be happier, just like this morning, when he saw Tang Yuyan leaning against the car window and frowning and sleeping, he would unconsciously sacrifice his shoulders to let Tang Yuyan sleep comfortably on his shoulders.

Of course, Xu Xinghai also knew that his actions might cause misunderstandings among other classmates, but when he saw Tang Yuyan frowning, he couldn't care so much.

But fortunately, only Song Jiayao, who stood up and spoke at the end, noticed the whole classmate. Song Jiayao is not a talkative person, and I believe she will not talk about it.

After the classmates finished eating, the proprietress came over and said politely, "The osmanthus cake is still being made, and it will take a while to eat it." ”

Song Jiayao also said politely, "It's okay, I'll wait for a while, and I'll trouble you to make more osmanthus cakes, and then the students can take some home and eat with their families." ”

"No problem, we have made all the osmanthus you brought back today into osmanthus cakes, and when you leave, I will pack them for you, and you can take them directly when the time comes." The proprietress said suggestively.

"Okay, that's troublesome to the boss, we have a total of twenty people plus the driver, and the amount of work is relatively large, do you need our help?" Song Jiayao smiled and agreed to the boss's suggestion.

"No, no, but if you are idle this afternoon, you can come over and see how the osmanthus cake is made." The hostess made a new suggestion.

In the end, except for Tang Yuyan, several girls decided to go to see the production process of osmanthus cakes after dinner.

After the proprietress left, Tang Yuyan took out two hundred yuan from her satchel and handed it to Song Jiayao, and said to the other students, "Let's pay the meal money first, and settle the bill in a while, two hundred per person, don't make a mistake." ”

After Song Jiayao took the money, he continued, "Then pay for the meal first, and we'll continue to play in a while." ”

The 19 students who came this time each took out 200 yuan and handed them to Song Jiayao one after another, and finally Song Jiayao also took out his 200 yuan and put it together with the 200 yuan handed by Tang Yuyan, and received a total of 3,800 yuan.

Song Jiayao found a waiter in front of his classmates, planning to settle the meal on the spot, but the waiter finally found the proprietress in the end.

In the end, this lunch plus the osmanthus cake that has not yet been baked, it cost a total of 1465 yuan, and the boss said that this time it was for the sake of the students, so he wiped a zero, and only charged 1400 yuan.

Song Jiayao counted out 1,400 yuan from a pile of 100 yuan bills in his hand and handed it to the boss, and the proprietress returned to the cashier to open the invoice, and the waiter brought the invoice and handed it to Song Jiayao.

Then Song Jiayao said to the students, "Today's charter cost 300, I have already paid a deposit of 100 to the master, and the remaining 200 is for the master, and I am taking 100." After Song Jiayao finished speaking, he took out both sides and handed them to the master by the students one by one, and then took out 100 and put them away by himself.

Originally, the driver master ate by himself, but the classmates all said that they were here, and it was not a big deal to have a meal together, so the master sat down with the classmates to eat together.

After the driver took the money, he said with a smile, "Next time there will be such an event, if you come out to play, you can come to me." After saying that, he laughed, and the students were infected by the driver's master, and they also laughed.

"There are still 2,100 left, I will refund 100 yuan per person first, and the remaining 200 yuan will be put here for me first, and it will be counted together at dinner, okay." Song Jiayao arranged it.

"No problem, Team Leader Song." After the students took the 100 yuan back, a boy shouted, and then the other students followed with shouting "OK" and "no problem"

After lunch, Tang Yuyan walked around the back mountain of the farmhouse, and finally saw the proprietress painting under the osmanthus tree, and asked the proprietress for some paper and pencils, watercolor paints and easels, and then found a quiet corner to paint.

Tang Yuyan had nothing to do in her last life when she was in college, and enrolled in a watercolor painting and sketching class on the Internet, although she hadn't painted for a long time, but now she is also decent when she paints.

Tang Yuyan moved her pen and began to draw the scene of Song Jiayao shaking the osmanthus tree this morning, and she hurriedly picked up the osmanthus flowers.

Tang Yuyan painted slowly, humming a light and melodious melody in her mouth, and the painted paintings seemed to feel the joy of the painter, and the characters on the paintings were vivid.

What Tang Yuyan didn't know was that not long after she found a good position and put down her painting tools to prepare to paint, on the branch of an osmanthus tree not far behind her, a male classmate also leaned on the trunk with his hands on his chest and watched her draw quietly.

This male classmate was none other than Xu Xinghai, who saw Tang Yuyan coming over from a distance and quickly climbed the tree.

Xu Xinghai had never heard the melody hummed in Tang Yuyan's mouth, but he listened to it very well; Xu Xinghai doesn't know how to paint, but when he looks at Tang Yuyan's paintings, he also thinks they are very beautiful.

Xu Xinghai waited for Tang Yuyan to stop the brush, moved his arm, and then looked at the painting again and found that Tang Yuyan had already finished painting.

After Tang Yuyan finished painting this painting, she took off the drawing paper on the drawing board, admired it tightly for a while, laid it flat on the ground, took out a few pens and pressed them on the drawing paper, put a new sketch paper on the drawing board, and then took out a pencil and started a new round of creation.

Tang Yuyan was painting on the drawing board, Xu Xinghai was sitting on the tree and looking at the painting with relish, everything was beautiful.

By the time Tang Yuyan finished painting, it was already four o'clock in the afternoon.

Tang Yuyan raised her hand and looked at her watch, then shook her stiff wrist, then cleaned up the mess on the ground and left the place.

Xu Xinghai also jumped off the tree shortly after Tang Yuyan left, and left with him.

After Tang Yuyan returned to the farmhouse, she saw that the proprietress had returned, so she returned the painting tools in her hand to the proprietress and thanked the proprietress for it.

The proprietress saw that Tang Yuyan's painting was not bad, and suggested that she leave the painting here, and then she found a time to frame the painting and hang it in the farmhouse.

Tang Yuyan thought that it was a good thing that her paintings could be liked and appreciated by more people, so she happily handed over the paintings to the proprietress as well.

After the proprietress promised not to block Tang Yuyan's payment with a picture frame, Tang Yuyan left happily.

After Xu Xinghai, who followed Tang Yuyan back to the farmhouse, saw it, he planned to take advantage of the time to leave for a while, first find the proprietress to take a painting, and wait for two days to follow his family once and leave another painting.

At five o'clock in the afternoon, the students all returned to the farmhouse to start dinner, and today's dinner was also very rich, and it cost 1,150 yuan at the time of checkout.

After Song Jiayao calculated, he said to the students, "The students each contributed 50 yuan, plus the 200 yuan that was placed here at noon, and the dinner money was just right." ”

After paying the money, the students took a pack of freshly baked osmanthus cakes in the hall, said goodbye to the boss, and then got on the bus and left.

Xu Xinghai was the last to get in the car, and at the end, he said that he finally found the proprietress to leave a painting by Tang Yuyan, and Xu Xinghai, who got the painting, planned to take his family on a trip in two days and take another painting into his pocket.

At this time, Tang Yuyan didn't know that her two paintings had been secretly accepted by Xu Xinghai, and now she was still thinking about whether anyone among her friends who would eat at the farmhouse would like or appreciate her paintings in the future.
