(2) Parents' thoughts 3
They rested here for three days because there was a lot of food and daily necessities to add, and not least of all, as a political metropolis, it was a place where snacks from all over the country gathered.
Entering the grassland, for them, the hardest thing, that is, there is no normal opportunity to bathe; The second is the herder's meal, which may not be to the taste...... Of course, they are also mentally prepared β ready to accept the smell of animals.
As for whether the food is authentic or not, it is not within the scope of Su Yuedong's consideration, according to Su Yuedong's words: because of local protectionism, the crackdown on counterfeiting is not enough, and counterfeit and shoddy products cannot be prevented, so it is better not to prevent it: 'life and death are fate, wealth is in the sky', when he is at home, the direction of his physical exercise with Xie Lianyu is: to improve his own immunity;
On the fourth day, they drove into the steppe......
"Our goal?" Xie Lianyu asked softly.
"Guyuan County, it is said on the Internet that the Bashang Grassland is the closest grassland to Beijing, and the most beautiful place in the Bashang Grassland is the closest to Guyuan County." Su Yuedong replied as he drove.
"It's good to be with you, you don't have to think about anything......" Xie Lianyu stopped her hands that were peeling apples, looked ahead, and sighed thoughtfully.
Su Yuedong didn't reply, just took his right hand off the steering wheel and gently slapped his wife's thigh twice.
β¦β¦
After more than nine hours of driving, Su Yuedong was tired enough, and the last ten kilometers were not high-speed; Fortunately, because of the tourist area, the kilometers are still better; It's a pity that Su Yuedong didn't expect it when he came out, he originally thought that the most beautiful grassland was from July to September, and it would be the peak tourist season at that time, but he didn't expect that today was June 1st......
All for the sun at eight or nine o'clock in the morning, all for the successor...... Along the way, there were traffic jams from time to time, and the original drive of more than six hours took three hours more.
Su Yuedong and Xie Lianyu lived in Guyuan County for two days before driving to Datan Town, where Fengning Dam is located.
Su Yuedong and his wife also got up quite late, and when they left the hotel, it was almost noon.
The scenery of the grassland is indeed beautiful, but there are too many man-made buildings, which is undoubtedly a snake to add to the painting...... Su Yuedong drove directly and slowly towards the depths of the grassland......
"Sir, do you want to ride a horse?" The car was stopped by a young man dressed as a herdsman: "Distinguished guest, welcome to our home, sincerely hope to have the opportunity to serve you!" The young man politely put his left hand behind his back, pressed his right hand to his chest, bowed to Su Yuedong, and said in standard Mandarin.
Su Yuedong and Xie Lianyu glanced at each other: compared to those herdsmen who had just entered the entrance and were clamoring for guests, this young man seemed to be from another world...... because they felt that there was a little less copper smell on his body. The only incomprehensible thing was that the lad certainly didn't look more than thirty years old, but because he had a beard, he looked old; Su Yuedong obviously saw the young man's smile with a little confusion......
Three major events of tourism: scenery, snacks, and nostalgia! And nostalgia needs to be talked to; Maybe it's fate, Su Yuedong liked him a little when he saw him for the first time; Oh, and they may not like it, but they certainly don't hate it.
"Can you tell us what kind of service you have?" Su Yuedong asked with a smile.
"Eat, live, guide, teach you how to ride a horse." The young man said very seriously: "Of course, the food is mainly cattle and sheep, but I can minimize the smell and ensure that it suits the taste of you southerners; Everything about the stay is new and no smell is guaranteed. As for the guides, I thought I could take you there if you told me what you liked about the grassland...... There is also horseback riding...... I promise to teach you to trot, but that requires you to suffer! β
"What's the price?" Su Yue Dongxiao asked with interest.
"I live, generally each room is two hundred and one nights on holidays, and one hundred and one nights if it is not a holiday...... the young man couldn't see Su Yuedong's expression, and lowered his head and thought about it: "I'll give you a discount: eighty ...... a night" No, fifty; As for the food, it depends on what you want to eat, generally speaking, when outsiders come here, they like to taste the roast whole sheep first, I will give you 500 one, it doesn't matter the size! β
"No, young man, others bake at least eight hundred and one thousand, why are you only five hundred?" Of course, Su Yuedong understood the young man's thoughts: he wanted to keep guests, but even if it was, it didn't have to be so cheap?
"The sheep are their own, it doesn't matter how much they sell or how little they sell, anyway, five hundred and one are not a loss, right?" The young man said.
From his expression, Su Yuedong saw his sincerity: he thought so, he didn't lie!
"Okay, let's stay at your house and take me to your house!" Su Yuedong clapped his hands and said, "You get into my car and show me the way!" β
"Look, that's my home." The young man pointed to a place about a kilometer away, where there was a lone tree nestled by the river, and more than ten meters from the tree, there were five two-story houses; Behind the house, there is a large sheepfold surrounded by a wooden fence.
"I came on horseback." He pointed to the jujube red horse twenty meters away, who was grazing by himself: "You follow me." β
"By the way, young man, what's your name?" After Su Yuedong opened the car door, he turned around and asked.
"I'm sorry, distinguished guest, I forgot to introduce myself, my name is Wu Enqi, which translates into Chinese to mean 'sincerity'." Unqi smiled shyly, "Excuse me, sir, what should I call you?" β
"My name is Su Yuedong, you can call me Lao Su!" Su Yuedong nodded to Wu Enqi: "Lead the way!" β
Watching Unqi fly softly onto the horse, yes, it should be said to fly, his jujube red horse did not have a saddle...... Xie Lianyu watched with envy as Wu Enqi rode on horseback, and thought: Can I learn it too?
"You can too!" Although Su Yuedong said this, he was worried in his heart: You won't teach us to ride horses like this, right? I remember when I was in Germany, I grabbed the saddle tightly with both hands, but I almost threw it off every time......
Taking Su Yuedong and his wife to the small building, Wu Enqi led them to the easternmost room on the second floor: "The bedding is all new, and besides, Arjuna just dried it yesterday. β
I don't know who Arjuna is, but this is not important to Su Yuedong; Xie Lianyu lifted the quilt and said, "Not bad! β
"There is hot water in the room, it is water supplied by a solar water heater, you can take a bath and rest when you are tired, or you can go for a walk, anyway, there is grass all around; I'm going to fetch Arjuna, she roasts the best whole lamb, and she'll prepare you dinner tonight. β
Su Yuedong felt from Wu Enqi's expression: he is not a competent tour guide, less excessive enthusiasm, but more true feelings.
"What a beautiful horse!" In less than an hour, Unch brought Arjuna on a white horse, white without a trace of stray hair, and it seemed that this beautiful girl also liked horses, and behold, this horse was white and spotless. In front of Wu Enqi, there was also a sheep with a neck that had not dried up with blood, and Su Yuedong estimated that it looked like forty or fifty catties.
"Greetings, distinguished guest, my name is Arjuna, and I am the fiancΓ©e of Unki." Arjuna was enthusiastically greeting Su Yuedong and his wife.
"Hello, I'm sorry for your trouble!" Su Yuedong replied politely.
"No, thank you for coming, you are the first guests of Unki's new home." Arjuna said.
"We are honored! Hopefully it didn't cause you any trouble. Su Yuedong said again. He found that Arjuna also spoke pure Chinese.
"Don't know when the guests need to eat?" With Arjuna's tone, Unqi did not call "Mr. Sue" either.
"Whatever!" Su Yuedong smiled and said: "Whatever you want, you will feel relaxed, and you are relaxed, it will infect us, besides, we don't have so much need and attention when we come out to play." β
"That's right......" Unqi thought for a moment and said, "Why don't we start now?" In this case, we can have dinner before four o'clock, which is good, because it is too late and the evening wind is strong, and you may not be used to it, and it is uncomfortable to sit outside; However, if you do, it will delay your play today. β
"Don't be afraid, we don't have time constraints, if this place is good, we can play for a few more days; Still, today we want to have a good rest, and tomorrow you have to teach us how to ride! Su Yuedong asked: "Will it delay you to welcome the guests?" β
"No, no, as long as Mr. Su is willing, he can do anything, anyway, I didn't even receive guests on Children's Day yesterday and the day before yesterday, and there is no hope for the future, unless I can't live outside, it will leak to me." Wu Enqi smiled bitterly, and said to Arjuna: "You deal with the sheep, I'll go and get firewood, oh, by the way, Mr. Su, what do you and your wife want to eat besides roasting the whole sheep?" β
"Wuenqi: We've never been to the prairie to have fun, so we don't know what to eat here, and what are the specialties of your own home-cooked dishes? I hope we can all taste it and experience it. Su Yue said.
"I see, Mr. Su!" It can be seen that Wu Enqi speaks and does things very neatly, and he will never drag the mud and water: "It's just right, Arjuna helped me make a lot of food yesterday, and I will take it out for the two of you to taste when the time comes, but it was yesterday, I hope you don't dislike it." β
"Good!" Su Yuedong's tone clearly indicated that they wouldn't care.
Wu Enqi quickly brought firewood, lit a fire by the river, and then went to help Arjuna tidy up the whole sheep, and explained to Su Yuedong: "The fire burns first, and when the open flame is extinguished, there will be no smoke smell and a better taste if it is roasted over pure charcoal." β
Of course Su Yuedong understands this truth, otherwise, when he was in Germany, he learned to barbecue from Wolfbai, he nodded with a smile, and watched the little couple tidy up the whole sheep with interest.
