Chapter 3 Someone is Crazy
I laughed evilly and said, "In the middle of the night, thinly dressed, and in the bathroom with a strange man, you dare to call him a hooligan?" ”
She also seemed to realize that the occasion was wrong, her face turned red in an instant, her expression became extremely nervous, and she said timidly: "You...... If you dare to mess around, I'll ......"
"Haha...... Okay, okay, tease you, look at the ...... that scares you" Seeing her anxious look, I can't bear to scare her, what's more, I think it's really not appropriate if you continue to make trouble, not to mention lonely men and widows, they are all young people with strong blood, and it is easy to get angry. Although I am not a gentleman, I am definitely not a villain, especially when it comes to feelings and the opposite sex, absolutely serious and respectful.
I closed the window and said, "Let me introduce myself, my name is Zu Junyang, I like to wander around, and I am a poor tourist who has been on the go." ”
"Chen Qingxue ......"
Her soft voice came from behind me, and we walked out of the bathroom as we talked, intending to head back to the living room.
She just said her name simply, which I didn't mind. Anyway, it is already a special fate to meet in Pingshui. It can be seen that she is a good girl, although I am single, but when we meet for the first time, I can't derive too many ideas, and some things have to depend on fate in addition to good feelings.
We chatted casually in the living room, and after leaving each other's contact information, we were ready to go back to our rooms to rest, and I comforted her and said that it would be okay, and if there was anything unusual, call me. Looking at the time, it was already more than two o'clock in the morning, and I hadn't slept at this point in time, not just a night owl.
Lying on the bed, my mind kept thinking, what is the relationship between me and the girl in black? The more I thought about it, the more confused my mind became, and finally I fell asleep in a daze.
At about eight o'clock in the morning, I heard He Chuan knocking on the door of my room and calling my name, I squinted in response, he told me to go downstairs for breakfast, and then went downstairs by myself. I simply washed my face before going downstairs, and breakfast was a very simple bowl of mixed sauce noodles; On the square wooden table in the living room, there was also a plate of pickles and a plate of spicy oil, which looked pretty good, and my appetite immediately increased.
Halfway through the meal, I remembered that there were still people upstairs, so I asked Uncle He and He Chuan, why didn't they see the tenant next door downstairs for breakfast? Uncle He said: "The girl from the city is not used to eating noodles, so she went downstairs to eat some in the morning of the first two days of coming, so she wanted to be fresh." ”
He Chuan said: "She bought milk and bread in the refrigerator, and when she woke up, she went downstairs to get it herself, and I went upstairs to call her for the first two days, and then she told me to leave her alone." ”
"And how long has she lived?" I asked as I chewed.
"It's been almost a week." He Chuan replied.
After breakfast, I went upstairs and looked in the bathroom mirror, ready to go out for a walk later. After returning to the room, I heard lazy footsteps walking in the direction of the bathroom, and I didn't have to think about it to know that it was Chen Qingxue, who had just woken up.
looked at the time, it was already past nine o'clock, and I thought it would be better to call her to go shopping together, and there would be someone to talk to. Remembering that she hadn't eaten breakfast yet, she went downstairs to the kitchen to help her warm up a glass of milk, fry two eggs, and grab two slices of bread.
As soon as I got to the living room upstairs, Chen Qingxue was about to go back to the room with a bunch of toiletries, so I took the initiative to say hello and asked her to have breakfast. She looked at me stunned, then at the milk and dinner plate on the coffee table, said thank you and took the things back to the room.
When she came out again, she smiled at me a little embarrassedly, and it was normal to think about it, after all, we were not familiar with it yet. She sat down and asked me if I had breakfast.
I said, "I ate the mixed sauce noodles they cooked, and it tasted good." ”
Chen Qingxue said: "It's pretty good, but there's no way, I want to sleep a little longer......"
I smiled and said, "So you're not used to eating, it's because you're lazy?" ”
She gave me a blank look: "Can you speak?" Girls want to sleep beauty sleep......"
I asked her, "Last night, how did you sleep?" ”
"Do you think I'll sleep well when that weird thing happens?"
I laughed awkwardly.
"Look at you, are you going to go out?"
I said, "Well, go out for a walk, do you want to go out?" We can go together......"
"I ......"
I thought she might be a little embarrassed, but before she could finish, she continued, "It's up to me to help you prepare breakfast, it's okay anyway, is it?" ”
"Hmm...... Okay, you wait a minute......" She finally nodded, drank the milk from the cup and got up to go back to her room.
She was still wearing last night's pajamas, and she hadn't had time to change them yet.
I said I'd wait for her downstairs and take the plates and cups she had left to the kitchen downstairs and clean them up. While waiting, I was in the lobby...... Oh no, they call it a 'hall house' in the locals, and the partition behind it is called a 'laneway house', and the wooden staircase up the stairs is also erected in it. I stood in the hall and admired the inscriptions of the gods written with a brush, and in terms of calligraphy alone, the writing was really good.
It didn't take long for Chen Qingxue to go downstairs, she changed into a light pink shirt, cropped slim jeans, her hair was simply tied up, her face was thinly powdered, and her thin eyebrows were lightly drawn, which added a lot of color to her already good-looking. When she saw that I was reading the words, she said, "This is called 'incense' locally, and in the past, almost every family would have it. ”
I said, "I feel that this is a bit contradictory, the prince of heaven and earth is a Confucian thing, and in Confucianism, there is no such thing as ghosts and gods. ”
Chen Qingxue said: "I don't say here that it has anything to do with the theory of ghosts and gods, you don't think that their 'heaven' refers to the 'gods' or the emperor of heaven or something, right?" ”
I asked, "Isn't it?" ”
Chen Qingxue said: "Of course not, what they say about heaven and earth refers to all things in heaven and earth. ”
I see, it turns out that I, like most people, have confused it with mythology, and in the eyes of the ancients, heaven and earth are indeed the greatest. The so-called 'Huangtian' and Houtu' are only the supreme gods in charge of heaven and earth in mythology, not heaven and earth themselves.
I smiled and said, "It turns out that they worship all the beliefs of Confucianism, Buddhism, and Taoism!" Let's go......"
If someone is at home, the door of the hall is generally always open, and there is a 'threshold' at the door, and the passage and yard are crossed by the threshold, but the yard is a little lower than the position of the corridor and the house. It is said that when building a house, it is necessary to lay a 'foundation' on the originally flat open space, and then build the house on top of the foundation.
The main entrance of the hall has two stone steps from the courtyard under the passageway, and a row of rectangular stones is laid in a neat line on the edge of the junction between the passage and the courtyard. The stones vary in length from about one meter to one meter and one to a half, and judging from the texture, they are completely hand-hewn. It is no wonder that the 'stonemason' or 'carpenter' of the earlier era was more popular.
That aisle they call 'step edge kan', the step word is pronounced in the same way as the wall. The courtyard is paved with bluestone, except for some pebbles arranged in geometric shapes.
I glanced back, but I didn't see Uncle He, and I didn't know what I was doing in the house, so I shouted twice into the house, said hello and went out.
Passing through the alley, we walked to West Street, and heard that there was a wind and rain covered bridge several hundred meters long across the river in that direction, and the bridge culture in China has been inherited for thousands of years. It is indeed worth seeing that a small town can build a wind and rain bridge at a distance of several hundred meters.
We stopped and talked along the way, talking and laughing. However, most of them are Chen Qingxue who is introducing me, for example, which ones are preserved a long time ago, or which ones are newly renovated with retro architectural techniques. When was the stele erected, and the name of the brewery is far and near, and it is brewed by its own brewery using traditional techniques......
I couldn't help but exclaim, "I know a lot!" It can be called a living ancient town travel guide! ”
She looked at me and said, "There is a saying that if you are ugly, you should read more, you know what it means, right?" ”
I pretended to be aware and said, "Oh...... No wonder you read so many books, and no wonder I read less......"
"You're saying I'm ugly?"
"Hehe, it's not hard to talk to smart."
Maybe it's because we've talked a lot, and we're getting acquainted, she slapped me on the face and said, "Your ability to understand is really worrying, open your eyes and see, come and come...... Give you a chance to take a closer look at whether it's ugly or not? ”
She tilted her head as she spoke, and I deliberately opened my eyes wider, then stretched my neck, leaned in front of her and said, "Looking at it this way, it's really beautiful, even ...... The beauty is delicious...... "I deliberately pursed my lips and swallowed a mouthful of saliva as I spoke.
She was suddenly amused by my appearance, and I laughed along. Turning our eyes, we found that there were a lot of passers-by in front of us. I heard a lot of talk in the crowd, saying that he must be a crazy person, and some people questioning, isn't the morning okay? Why are you crazy?
Someone is crazy? This is our first reaction when we hear the discussion.
