Chapter 169 In Yuyuan Pond, enjoy lotus flowers in summer
Yuyuan Lake is named after the water.
It was the height of summer, and the lotus flowers were in full bloom.
For more than 800 years, Yuyuantan has been a famous tourist attraction in Beijing. As early as the Jin Dynasty, Yuyuantan Park was a scenic place on the outskirts of Jinzhongdu. Liaojin is called Diaoyutai, where the river bends, a water town scenery.
There are two lotus viewing spots in Yuyuantan Park, one is the "Wanping Lotus Fragrance" scenic spot located in the southwest corner of the West Lake in the park, mainly red lotus, the plants are tall, the flowers are numerous, and the flowers are gorgeous. The other is a small cherry blossom lake located in the cherry blossom garden, which is dominated by red lotus, large purple jade, and dancing concubine lotus, and the petals flutter when they are in full bloom, which is particularly beautiful.
I waited for Ye Qian at the gate of Yuyuantan.
Ye Qian wears a light pink camisole and a polka dot skirt, with a fresh ladylike style, elegant and sweet, with a little femininity. On her feet, she wears a pair of socks and high-heeled sandals, retro charming.
I happily took Ye Qian's hand and began to play in the garden.
"One thought is pure, and lotus flowers bloom everywhere." I whispered to Ye Qian.
"The heart is full of lotus flowers, and the fragrance comes naturally." Ye Qian smiled slightly.
We looked at each other and smiled.
Before we knew it, we had come to Liuchun Garden.
The lawn here is open, surrounding the verandah, and towering trees, separating the Liuchun Garden into a relatively independent garden within a garden.
"This is the legendary blind date corner!" I asked Ye Qian softly.
"yes!" Ye Qian smiled, "It's really sad, love has been reduced to a stall!" ”
I looked up and saw a lot of old people going on blind dates on behalf of their children. Every old man comes prepared, and the basic information of their children is printed on almost a considerable size of white cardboard. There are reserved ones, holding cardboard in their hands, or even carrying them in their bags. Some of them often come, and they no longer care about the eyes of passers-by, so they spread cardboard on the ground. Age, height, education, marital history...... The information on the cardboard is clear and unambiguous, but the most important thing is the material condition.
"This cardboard is like a business card!" Ye Qian said with a smile.
"Look at this," I said to Ye Qian with a smile, "Jinghu Jingfang Jingche, beautiful, writer, working in CBD, 1.70 meters, 48 kilograms...... Wow! This is a beautiful writer! She has a fight with you for this condition! ”
"Mom!" Ye Qian shouted angrily, "Why did you come here again?" ”
I looked up in confusion.
Only then did I find that not far from the sign, Ye Qian's mother was holding a parasol. At this time, the old lady also noticed us, and hurriedly picked up the cardboard on the ground and stuffed it into the cloth pocket.
"Mom!" Ye Qian began to count her mother angrily, "How many times have I told you, even if you find someone you are satisfied with, I won't go to meet, why don't you die of this heart?" ”
"Don't say it," I said to Ye Qian seriously, "It is also a good pastime for the elderly to communicate with each other here, talk, and relieve boredom!" ”
"Shut up!" Ye Qian said angrily, "You are stupid! ”
I shut my mouth in a huff.
The number of onlookers is increasing.
Seeing this, the old lady hurriedly picked up the bag and left. She walked in front, and Ye Qian and I followed closely.
"Mom!" Ye Qian suddenly said, "Let's take a look at the lotus together!" After reading it, let's go to dinner together! ”
"Okay!" Only then did the old lady stop.
The three of us came to the "Wanping Lotus Fragrance" scenic spot located in the southwest corner of the park's West Lake. The red lotus is the main plant here, with tall plants, many flowers, and bright colors.
"The lotus flower symbolizes purity, elegance, purity and detachment," I said to Ye Qian with a smile, "and true purity is not in the body, but in the heart." ”
"The lotus flower comes out of the sludge without staining, and it is pure and pure." Ye Qian smiled.
"The lotus flower is a symbol of the Buddha," the old lady said, "and in Tibetan Buddhism, the lotus flower symbolizes the ultimate goal, which is to attain positive results!" ”
"Mom! If you run to the blind date corner like this again, can I achieve positive results? Ye Qian said angrily.
"Boys can look down for teens younger," said the old lady in a voice, "you girls can't afford to wait!" ”
"If you can't wait, you won't get married, okay!" Ye Qian muttered.
I smiled and turned around.
In front of me, the lotus flowers are blooming so beautifully.
"Mom!" Ye Qian said to her mother seriously, "Although this person has flaws, at least he is better than those stalls!" ”
"Are you praising me again!" I turned around and smiled gentlemanly.
Ye Qian smiled.
Only the old lady did not have a smile at all.
It's hot.
Cars stop and go.
"Where to eat?" Ye Qian asked while driving.
"Let's go to Fucheng Road!" I smiled and said, "We said yes!" ”
"That's a joke," Ye Qian smiled, "My mom is here today, let's go eat some home-cooked food!" ”
"Let's go to Kyoto!" The old lady suggested.
"Okay!" Ye Qian cleared her throat and said coquettishly, "After my mother went once, she often wanted to go. The waiters there are all dressed in the Republic of China period, and different positions seem to have different clothes. The menu is thick and covers most of the food in Beijing from large to small, including Baylor barbecue, roast mutton, roast duck, donkey rolling, tea soup, Mengjie wowo and pea yellow. ”
"Authentic Beijing cuisine," the old lady echoed, "it tastes very good!" ”
Soon, the car arrived at the entrance of Jingwei Zhai.
We laughed and walked in.
"Auntie!" Waiting for the dishes to be served, I said to the old lady seriously, "The next time you go to the blind date corner, can you bring my information with you, anyway, one sheep is released, and two sheep are also released!" ”
"The key is your condition," the old lady said embarrassedly, "you are in Beijing, you don't have a house, no car, no hukou......
"He's not working yet!" Ye Qian laughed.
"On your terms," said the old lady with a smile, "I don't dare to write on an A4 card, but only on a card the size of a business card!" ”
"And then?" I asked curiously.
"And stick it on a telephone pole!" The old lady laughed so hard that her dentures were about to fall off.
Ye Qian laughed, and the tea that had just been brought to her mouth sprayed me in the face.
I pretended to be angry and looked out the window.
"I'm kidding you!" The old lady said seriously, "As long as you settle for this condition, there is still hope." For example, those who are married for the second time or the third time, those with children, those who are a little disabled, and those who are a little older, can actually still be considered! ”
At this time, the meal was served.
We started eating and chatting at the same time.
"After dinner," Ye Qian said to me with a smile, "I'll drive my mother back first, and then I'll send you off!" ”
"No need to send it," I pretended, "I'm here by car today!" ”
"What?" Ye Qian exclaimed, "What about the car? ”
"Oh my God!" I suddenly realized, "The car is still at the gate of Yuyuantan!" ”
"It's okay to forget that," Ye Qian said with a smile, "When I send my mother to eat in a while, you are still here to eat, and I will come here to pick you up after I finish delivering it, anyway, there are so many dishes left, it will be a waste if you don't eat it!" ”
I smiled and nodded.
Ye Qian smiled.
The old lady seemed to be smiling.
