273 I don't want to risk her anymore
Su Siqi took the medicine, but she was still uncomfortable, she couldn't lift her head with a headache, and leaned weakly on Shen Mengqing's arms. Shen Mengqing simply didn't let her walk, got in the car and hugged her, got out of the car and hugged her, and didn't put her on the bed until she returned to the hotel room.
The effect of the medicine gradually worked, she felt better, and fell asleep in a daze, but not long after, her head hurt again, as if it was about to crack, and her chest was stuffy, she knew that the damn reaction was coming again, and when she opened her eyes, Shen Mengqing was not in the room, Su Siqi was very scared, she was in a foreign land, she was still sick, and the only person she was familiar with was not there. This fear made her crazy, as if she would die silently in the room in the next second, so she struggled to get off the slippers, slowly walked to the door, and was about to open the door to go out, when she heard someone talking outside, like Shen Mengqing's voice.
He spoke in English, which Su Siqi couldn't understand, but he mentioned a name in the middle: Aye.
She felt strange, why did Shen Mengqing mention Aye? She also heard the voice of another person, it was Mark, his English was very fluent and pleasant, but unfortunately Su Siqi couldn't understand a word.
Shen Mengqing and Ah Ye were silent for a moment, and then Shen Mengqing said in Chinese: "It's a pity that I let him run away again." ”
Mark also switched to Chinese: "It's okay, there's still a chance." ”
"No," Shen Mengqing said, "I don't want her to take any more risks." ”
Mark spoke back in English, and there was a long list of chatters, Shen Mengqing was silent for a while, so long that Su Siqi couldn't hold it anymore, and finally pushed the door open.
Shen Mengqing saw her standing at the door and staggering, and walked over to hug her: "What's wrong?" Is there a reaction again? ”
Su Siqi was very weak, nestled softly in his arms, didn't bother to say anything, only nodded slightly, she thought Shen Mengqing left, but no, he was in the next room, which made her a little relieved, as long as he was there, she was at ease.
Shen Mengqing asked Mark, "Can she take medicine again?" ”
Mark shook his head: "It's better not to, taking too much medicine is not good for your health." You wait, I'll get her a cup of cocoa tea. ”
Cocoa tea is the most commonly drunk tea by the locals, Su Siqi has drunk it, and the taste is not bad, but I don't know that the tea can actually suppress altitude sickness.
Mark soon got cocoa tea, not a cup, but a large jar, in which large cocoa leaves were placed, which looked black. Su Siqi drank two cups in a row and felt better, so she continued to drink, and when she drank the fifth cup, the reaction to force people to death really disappeared. It's like someone suddenly took the big stone that was pressed on his heart, he felt very smooth, his head didn't hurt anymore, and the whole person slowly returned to normal.
It's really amazing, Su Siqi looked at the remaining small half can of cocoa tea, and felt incredible, the locals drink this tea every day, is it to prevent altitude sickness?
When Mark saw that she was well, he politely said goodbye and left.
As soon as he left, Su Siqi asked Shen Mengqing, "What were you talking about just now?" How did you mention Aye? ”
"Is there one?" Shen Mengqing said: "Did you hear it wrong? ”
"Don't try to lie to me, you and Mark are mysterious, what else did you say that let who ran away, and who did you let run away?"
Shen Mengqing rubbed her temples for her: "What's the mess, it's that the altitude sickness is too heavy, and there are hallucinations, right?" ”
Su Siqi frowned, did she hear it wrong?
"Are you talking Chinese to Mark?"
"No, he and I have always spoken English."
Su Siqi blinked a little confused, probably because she was hallucinating, otherwise how could she hear such a strange conversation?
She asked, "Didn't you say you had official business?" Playing all day and not seeing you busy with official business? ”
"It's not a big deal, I'll have enough fun with you first." The man kissed the corner of her lips very gently: "Go to bed early, let's go to Lima tomorrow." ”
Suski knows that Lima is the capital of Peru and that there are many things to do and see there.
Lima is lower than the altitude of the ancient city, and it is the world's famous city without rain, it almost does not rain all year round, the climate is pleasant, it is divided into the old city and the new city, there are many ancient ruins in the old city, the distribution is wide, the residents are sparse, the new city is naturally much more prosperous, but the buildings are not high, the boxy houses appear to be very neat, and there are also many Spanish-style pointed arch buildings, most of which are left in the past.
From the terrace of the hotel, you can see the slums of Lima, which are very close to the rich and slowly expand upwards with the mountains. Su Siqi also saw a similar scene in Brazil, very dense slums, forming a different kind of landscape, such a large area, from a distance, people feel shocked. Here, the poor people have no money to buy land, so they can only build houses on the side of the mountain, and those who come behind will develop on the mountain, and in this way, more and more poor people gather here, and there are more and more houses, and the low houses of such a big mountain have overflowed halfway up the mountain.
Su Siqi used her mobile phone to supplement her Peruvian knowledge, knowing that the houses here were built by the poor themselves, but they were not built all at once, for example, some people lived here when they were young, and later got married and had children, and the house was not enough to live, so they tried their best to make another room and a half in the corner, so the road inside was very narrow, and in some places it was impossible for two people to walk side by side. The environment is really harsh.
Not far away is the rich area, the houses of the rich are built on flat land, two or three floors with yards, wide streets, green trees, surrounded by flowers, luxury cars parked in the yard, and some with swimming pools. This is the result of the polarization between rich and poor, the contrast between the rich and the poor, very stark.
Su Siqi clasped her hands, feeling the evil capitalism, and the man behind her came up and kissed her on the face: "What do you think, so obsessed?" ”
Su Siqi leaned into his arms, pointed to the slum in the distance, "Look there," paused, and said, "What if a boy from a rich area likes a girl in the slum?" It must be worse than us, right? ”
"Are we bad?" Shen Mengqing smiled: "We will be fine." ”
"But your family doesn't agree."
"Leave my family alone," Shen Mengqing said, "This time when I go back, I want to officially go to your house to officially meet your father." ”
"This ......" Su Siqi was a little hesitant, if she told her father about the reconciliation with Shen Mengqing, would he oppose it as he did four years ago? Last time, I lied to him that he was pregnant, so I barely relented, and this time if I use the old tricks, I'm afraid it will be difficult to pass the test, my father is not stupid, and he will definitely see through it.
"What's wrong? Don't want me to go? ”
"I'm afraid like last time, what if Dad still doesn't agree?"
"If you don't agree, you have to see him, and we will find a way to convince him." Shen Mengqing let go of his hand and stood side by side with her: "Your father is a reasonable person, he won't embarrass us, as long as he has no opinion, the rest will be easy to do." ”
Su Siqi thinks it's okay, the elders on both sides must get the support of one side first, if her father really has no opinion, she has no worries on her side, and she can concentrate on dealing with Shen Mengqing's parents.
"Let's go, it's interesting to eat stone-cooked rice today, go and have a look."
As long as it is about food, Su Siqi is interested, so she followed Shen Mengqing downstairs, they lived in the most luxurious hotel in Lima, very beautiful, a large green meadow, the grass was full of flowers, Su Siqi got out of the car and saw that she was happy, regardless of the fatigue of the boat, she dragged Shen Mengqing with great interest to take some photos in the flowers.
The air here is very fresh, take a deep breath, as if there is a clear sweet spring soaked into the internal organs, and feel that all the pores are opened, which is very pleasant.
Su Siqi saw a few people around a vacant lot, walked over and took a look, it turned out that they were digging a pit, and Shen Mengqing explained that the purpose of digging a pit was to burn stones. Sure enough, when the pit was dug, everyone built it in the pit with stones of different sizes, and a fire was burned underneath. Su Siqi thought that the stones here were amazing, as if Peruvians couldn't do without them, and built their houses out of stones, and now they use stones to cook their meals.
After burning for more than half an hour, the fire was extinguished, and the stones were so hot that they smoked, so we leveled the stones, spread tin foil on them, and then spread corn, potatoes, edamame, peanuts, and chicken legs, beef, pork, and alpaca meat on the tin foil, wrapped them tightly with another layer of tin foil, wrapped them in two layers of thick oilcloth, and then covered them with soil, tightened them, and got some grass to sprinkle on them, and then waited for forty minutes.
While waiting, Su Siqi and Shen Mengqing walked around, and saw Dutch rats, parrots, alpacas, and chickens on the grass, strolling around very comfortably, and getting along very well, the first three Su Siqi are not unusual, these are local characteristic animals, and it is understandable to use them to attract tourists, but chickens actually appeared on the lawn of the five-star hotel, which is probably a very funny thing if it is in China, but it seems very natural here.
Forty minutes later, the meal was ready, Su Siqi threw down Shen Mengqing, and quickly ran over to watch the chef open the meal, first to get the grass covered on it, and then to knock the soil, those soil are hard lumps, to use a small hammer to knock little by little, otherwise it will destroy the food inside, after the soil is opened, the cloth is uncovered, revealing that there is tin foil inside, a chef with thick gloves, took out a big tin foil bag, put it on the table, only uncover a corner, and the strong aroma overflows.
Su Siqi couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva, and couldn't wait to stand at the table, waiting for the food to be shared. This is the most primitive food aroma, and it is said that the Indians cooked rice in this way long ago.
The food was taken out and divided on the plate, Su Siqi wanted to eat corn, but it was very hot, Shen Mengqing wrapped it in a handkerchief and gave it to her, and took a bite, it was really ...... It was so delicious, she had never eaten such delicious corn, her eyes couldn't help but narrow, and she wanted to swallow it with her tongue.
She ate two corns in a row while it was hot, and ate some meat, all of which were delicious, but she was too strong to eat anything else, and whether or not someone looked at her with strange eyes, she took a plate and packed the potatoes and peanuts, and prepared to take them back to the room.
Shen Mengqing looked at it amused, with his hands in his pockets, and followed slowly and logically, looking leisurely, but his eyes were sharp and sharp, and he glanced around from time to time.
