Last night's thunderstorm, although it didn't rain, but the next day's morning wind was still cool, and when I got up early and opened the window, there was still a faint smell of earth in the air.

"The weather is so good today, I feel like I don't even need to turn on the air conditioner when I get in the car."

Get up early in the morning and lie down by the window to breathe fresh air, looking downstairs is the lively morning market, steaming hot porridge buns, the taste is a little bit of homely warmth.

Xue Chen sat on the bed and came back to his senses, he didn't sleep well last night, and he was still in a trance, looking like a meat bun sold downstairs.

A little hungry......

Hehuan swallowed silently.

After packing their luggage, He Huan and Xue Chen went downstairs and retreated from the room, and after carrying their luggage and putting them in the car, He Huan looked back at the hotel windows one by one, and said to himself: "I don't know where that Sister Gu went yesterday, how can there be such a coincidence in the world, there are more than one billion people in the south and north of the world, why is the person she is looking for happen to be my neighbor?" ”

couldn't figure it out, Hehuan got into the car, picked up the mobile phone and said: "She didn't even leave me a contact information, and I don't know if we will meet again in the future." ”

Xue Chen sat on the co-pilot, looked at Hehuan, touched her head and said, "Don't think about it so much, the meeting in Pingshui is just a few more coincidences, if there is fate, we will definitely meet again." ”

said so, but Xue Chen didn't think so in his heart, that strange woman and that strange dog, if possible, don't meet again in this life.

Hehuan nodded after hearing this, didn't think much about it, fastened his seat belt and turned on the navigation, it was really a long time since he drove.

"You didn't seem to have slept well last night, you sleep a little longer, and I'll call you when it's place."

Xue Chen just nodded, leaned his head on the neck pillow behind him, but didn't close his eyes, how could he sleep? After a while, he was going to take the highway, he slept over, and it was even more unsafe, so he barely fought all the way, but fortunately, Zhoucheng was not far from Yangzhou, and the highway would be there in an hour.

To the territory of Yangzhou, the face is a prosperous scene, obviously, Yangzhou and Zhoucheng style is not the same, Zhoucheng has a quaint landscape garden, is very delicate and elegant, but Yangzhou has a full modern technology style, high-rise buildings, viaducts, even the cars on the street are also more.

Looking at the car blocked in front of him, Hehuan stretched out in despair, rolled down the window, poked his head, looked at the situation in front and muttered: "It's not a weekend, how can there be so many cars?" ”

Xue Chen lowered his head and checked his mobile phone, and said after a while: "I should have come to see this architectural exhibition, I heard that many foreign photographers were invited this time, and a lot of photos were taken of some buildings designed by some independent designers in the last century, and there were also Western photographers in the late Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China. ”

After hearing this, Hehuan sighed a little sadly, looked at the black car in front of him, and scurried forward.

In this way, I arrived in Yangzhou at ten o'clock, and arrived at the hotel next to the exhibition hall at half past eleven.

At this moment, there was no one in the hotel, Xue Chen had booked the room in advance, and when he checked in, he knew that the other rooms were already full.

"Just now the front desk lady said that there are 4 tour groups are here, why don't we have a meal later, and then go to see the exhibition at twelve o'clock, at that time they are all out for lunch, we go in again, there should be fewer people."

He Huan nodded in agreement, although Xue Chen is a history department, but now he looks like a tour guide.

Put away the luggage, Xue Chen and Hehuan went to McDonald's downstairs nearby, while waiting for dinner, Hehuan checked what else was around the exhibition hall, and when Xue Chen came back, he said: "I just took a look, behind the exhibition hall, there is a small Western courtyard of the Qing Dynasty, it seems to be a house built by a landlord in the past, and later it was rented by a Western painter in the Republic of China and transformed into a Western-style building. ”

Xue Chen nodded.

At noon, the tour group came out of the exhibition hall, and as soon as Xue Chen and Hehuan entered, the people inside were sparsely scattered, and sure enough, there were not many, only a few individual visitors were still in the exhibition hall.

The entrance of the exhibition hall is arranged as a combination of Chinese and Western arches, half of which is a Chinese building with carved balustrades painted on the cornices, and the other half is in Western Baroque style with a slight hint of a Gothic church.

Entering the archway, there is the exhibition hall, which is extremely cool and air-conditioned, isolating the hot sunlight outside.

As soon as I entered, I found that the view was wide, and the walls were covered with photographs framed in delicate frames.

Some of the photos have been yellowed and blurred, and they look very shabby, but between the years, they can still reveal the architectural style of the late Ming and early Qing dynasties, or the late Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China.

There are three exhibition halls, and there are many miniature landscape models in the second exhibition room, which restore the Western architecture complex of the late Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China to the greatest extent.

After the tour, it was already two o'clock in the afternoon, and several new groups of tour groups came to visit, Xue Chen and Hehuan left directly from the back door exit, and found the scenic spot that Hehuan had just found out around a corner.

Compared to the popularity of this photo exhibition, this humble three-star tourist attraction has not been noticed.

Speaking of which, this is also half a garden courtyard, but the reputation is not as large as the scale of the boat home, not to mention the architectural decoration inside, even this gate is just simple, only hanging a wooden plaque, which is mottled and engraved with four words: Konglan Courtyard.

"At that time, the last owner of this place was a painter from the West, Mr. Henry, because he liked Chinese orchids, Mr. Henry also tried to paint the Chinese orchids in the way of oil painting, but unfortunately, the orchids he planted did not survive for long. Orchids are delicate and can only survive and bloom if they are nurtured by professionals. Therefore, Mr. Henry simply named his garden Konglan Garden, which is very similar to the meaning of Jigong saying that the Buddha left in his heart and the wine and meat passed through the intestines......"

Speaking, is a very elegant voice, it sounds very gentle, Hehuan heard it as soon as he entered the door, turned his head to look at the sound, and saw a tour group composed of several people on the side, with a female tour guide to explain on the side, Hehuan listened to it interestingly, so he also came to the side to listen carefully.

After a few more introductions, the female guide led the person inside, and noticed that someone was approaching on her side, and the female guide glanced back and was facing the eyes of the acacia.

I saw that Hehuan saw himself, tilted his head slightly, and his small movements were a little like Xue Chen, speaking of which, these two people have been childhood sweethearts for more than 20 years, and some small movements are quite similar.

The female tour guide just smiled politely when she saw it, and continued to lead the group inside, Hehuan watched the tour guide leave with some confusion, I don't know why, it was obviously an unfamiliar face, it was a little familiar, but I couldn't tell where I had seen it.

Xue Chen walked over and looked at Hehuan, then looked at the background of the female tour guide, and asked a little puzzled: "What do you watch people do, is it possible that you also need a tour guide?" Otherwise, if you pay me to hire me, I think I can tell you about it. ”

"No, that female tour guide feels very familiar to me, but I haven't seen that face before, what's wrong with me lately, everyone feels a little familiar......"

He Huan muttered to himself alone, Xue Chen looked at He Huan with some hesitation and asked, "Are you really face blind, why do you feel familiar with everyone?" ”

After hearing this, Hehuan rolled his eyes and said: "I haven't said anything about you, you said that you are a graduate student of the history department, and you actually want to be a tour guide, if you let the history professor know, you gave up his leisurely job in the museum, not only studied strange dark cuisine in the bubble tea shop, but also wanted to change your career to be a tour guide, I don't know if you will be angry......"
