(45) Differences in travel

During these three days of preparation, Fucheng and I also made a whole set of travel plans.

In order not to expose the intentions of the two of us so obviously, we also discussed with Cao Yunxiao how to explain to the parents for a long time. And in order not to disappoint the mothers, we also deliberately interspersed a few routes suitable for shopping in the itinerary of the visit, and also found several famous local restaurants and snack streets, so as to build a seven-day ideal travel life for mothers.

I didn't understand why Fu Chengwen's words had such a magical effect. It can be said to turn the tide and save me from fire and water. It wasn't until I started to get used to traveling alone that I realized that travel and tourism are not the same thing.

The seven days from departure to return are tourism, and for me, and perhaps Fu Chengwen, these seven days are a meeting between the past and the future.

Aside from the fathers who did not express their opinions, in my later understanding, I have always felt that although my parents and I are taking the same route, our feelings and pursuits are completely different. Because of the busy work and the oppression of family responsibility, parents only want to relax in the process of vacation travel. Their so-called tourism is just to find a strange city, leave their jobs, leave their families, and let go of the shackles of everything. Therefore, compared with the cultural landscape, they are more inclined to trekking through mountains and rivers and getting close to nature, but this is not the majestic and daunting three mountains and five mountains, and this water is not the turbulent and fearless Yangtze River and the Yellow River. All in all, all the peaceful natural landscapes are the ideal choice for them.

However, for someone like me who doesn't have any responsibilities to take on for the time being, when I travel, I focus more on a sensory and spiritual experience. And because I have been interested in history and culture since I was a child, and after reading Mr. Yu Qiuyu's book, I yearn for a kind of travel for the purpose of "searching", so in fact, going to Cao Yunxiao is just an additional result, what I really want is to experience the vague and clear outline of culture that stays in my mind.

It's just that I couldn't describe the feeling in my heart at that time, and with my poor vocabulary, I could probably only say the words excited, or happy, or happy, or satisfied, and when we actually got to that place, all my feelings came together into one word, and that was ......

Shock.

When I saw the ancient city walls, as well as the cultural relics or miracles that were preserved, I seemed to begin to understand the power of culture and the significance of history that Mr. Yu Qiuyu wanted to express in his book. And this is the first time I have found a resonance between a book and a city, which has aroused my great excitement and pride. So much so that I was extremely excited throughout the tour, and if I didn't have to follow the rules and not make a loud noise to affect others, I was afraid that I would scream the whole time, or the kind that screamed hoarsely.

The parents didn't understand why I was reacting, and thought I was being stimulated by something. I didn't explain anything to them, because I couldn't explain it to them at all, and even if I did, they wouldn't understand what I was thinking.

Compared with my madness, Fu Shuangwen didn't show any excitement during the whole process. Whether it was when he was looking at the artifacts with me, or when he was shopping, shopping, and tasting gourmet pastries with his mothers, he had a tepid attitude, as if after coming here, there was no difference from normal at home.

Parents often compare the two of us, especially my mom, who seriously wonders if I was born to the wrong gender. But at this time, Fu's mother will always expose her old bottom and tell me that my current performance is how much stronger my mother didn't know back then.

Because my mother was completely a tomboy back then, all of their male classmates regarded my mother as a brother, and my father was the only one who spoiled her like a little girl, otherwise, so many people who pursued my mother, my father might not be able to catch up with my mother.

In front of Fu's mother, my mother has always been as well-behaved as a little hamster, and she will not refute any of her statements at all. For this reason, my father often asked Fu's mother for advice, and implored Fu's mother to teach him two tricks, so that he could ensure his own safety in times of crisis. Because in front of my dad, my mom can be described as a veritable tigress. My dad often fantasized that she could be gentle, but unfortunately this fantasy never came true.

In this regard, Fu's mother said that she did not have any experience to talk about, because Fu's father's status at home is the same as my father's status at home. The desire of the two of them to turn over as the landlord in this life may only be realized when they change wives. However, the idea of changing a wife is even more unrealistic, so there is no solution to this problem at all, that is, the two of them are like this in this life, and there is no need to expect any miracles.

However, as a bystander, I think the relationship between parents is still very enviable. Although they were always arguing, I could tell that they loved each other. This kind of love is not manifested in words, but in all the little things in life. For example, if my mom came home a little later after work, my dad would urge me to keep calling my mom and urging her to come home sooner. Also, when I have a cold, my dad will only tell me to take medicine on time and drink more water, but if my mom has a cold, he will cook ginger syrup before she comes back from work, and then serve it to her himself when he comes back. What's more, if my dad has to go out to socialize, he will take my mom with him most of the time, and all my dad's friends know my mom, and every time they mention my mom, they will feel that my dad is holding my mom at the top of his heart, and even I, my own daughter, can't shake my mom's status in my dad's heart.

I think that for so many years, I have always had hope for love in the process of repeating the process of falling in love and falling out of love, probably because of the influence of my parents, although I have been eating the dog food that the two of them have inadvertently spilled since I was a child, but I don't get tired of eating at all, but I think it is better to eat more. Because of this simple and beautiful appearance of love, it is simply a luxury for us in the future.
