Twenty or thirty minutes later.

Yang Jiao stood quietly in the corridor on the second floor, only to hear the sound of the door opening on the side, and when he heard the voice, he saw Xu Hongdou change into a dress full of relaxed and comfortable vacation atmosphere.

Wearing a solid-color suit, a black-and-white plaid silk scarf, a straw hat with a large brim to shade the sun and protect from the sun, a slightly cute round cake bag diagonally crossed, and a small camera hanging around his neck.

"Your outfit is a bit touristy."

"You still need to say, let's go." Xu Hongdou raised his head.

When the two of them went downstairs, there was a platform next to the stairs, and Ma Qiushan was just sitting with his eyes closed, Xu Hongdou was inevitably curious, looked at him, and didn't help but speak until he walked out of the windy courtyard:

"Do you think this Maqiu Mountain can really sit like this for a day?"

Yang Jiao asked rhetorically:

"Do you think that a person who has a non-standard meditation posture and is calm on the outside, but restless on the inside, can sit quietly for a day?"

Xu Hongdou understood and sighed softly:

"It seems that everyone who travels has their own story."

"When you come out to travel, you want to be relaxed, take a look at the surroundings, the antique white walls and blue tiles of the building, the blue sky and let people stay away from the hustle and bustle of the city, and enjoy a quiet and comfortable environment."

Yang Jiao stretched out his hand and said with a smile:

"It's a shame not to take a few pictures, come, give me the camera, I'll take pictures for you."

"Then I'll trust your camera skills for a while." Xu Hongdou took off the camera hanging around his neck and handed it to Yang Jiao.

Immediately, the two stopped and stopped, either Yang Jiao took a photo of Xu Hongdou, or Xu Hongdou took a picture of Yang Jiao.

Ten minutes later, after coming to a restaurant called Gesang Flower, Xu Hongdou looked at Yang Jiao:

"There is a dish in this shop, I have heard of it before, the name of the dish is quite interesting, let's go, I'll take you to eat."

"Since it's you who treats you, of course you're the biggest, and everything is up to you." Yang Jiao followed Xu Hongdou into the hotel.

I saw that this restaurant is not very big, there are a few tables in the courtyard, and there are only a few tables in the house, and there are fresh ingredients outside the hall, and their names are indicated.

At this moment, there was a table sitting in the courtyard, and when Xu Hongdou walked to the door of the hall, he smiled and said:

"Haha, that's the dish, give me the camera, I'll take a picture of it."

Yang Jiao handed Xu Hongdou the camera, looked over, and saw that the vegetables that Xu Hongdou photographed were called water-based poplars.

Then the two of them walked into the house and just sat down, and immediately a woman in national costume walked briskly.

"What are you two eating?"

Yang Jiao looked at Xu Hongdou with a smile:

"You should still be the same as before, there are no taboos, you can eat anything."

"Yes." Xu Hongdou took off his hat, put it aside, and took off the bag again.

"Boss, then you have four dishes and one soup, if you want a dish, you will have a few local specialties, and the soup will be that water-based poplar soup." Yang Jiao didn't look at the menu either, and started ordering directly.

"Okay." When encountering such a diner who ordered quickly, the proprietress of the restaurant also replied neatly.

"Anyway, you traveled from south to north, do you know why that vegetable is called water-based poplar?" Xu Hongdou saw the hotel proprietress leaving, so he asked with a smile.

"The scientific name of water-based poplar is sea cauliflower, also known as dragon claw flower, is a plant in Lugu Lake, it is said that sea cauliflower can only grow in clean water quality, once the water is somewhat polluted, it will die, therefore, it is also known as environmental protection vegetables."

"As for why it is called water-based poplar, it is because its growth habit is very special, sea cauliflower is a submerged plant, its stems and leaves are sunk under water, only small white flowers are exposed to the water, and its flowers will float with the current, not fixed in one place, such a kind of plant, uneasy in the room, it gradually has the name of water-based poplar."

"It is worthy of being a scholar who graduated from 985 colleges at the age of 20, this knowledge is really profound." Xu Hongdou's tone paused slightly, and he carefully looked at Yang Jiao's face:

"Now that I take a closer look, I find that after more than ten years, your appearance has not changed much, and you are not a baby face, and you still sleep in the open all year round, how do you maintain it so well?"

"Don't forget, I'm a martial artist." Yang Jiao first poured a cup of tea for Xu Hongdou, and then poured another cup for himself.

"I almost forgot, you told me at the beginning that you have an inner family boxing that practices longevity and is very good at health preservation, but this inner family boxing is really magical?" Xu Hongdou asked curiously.

"The key is that I am not short of money, and I don't have any worries, and even if I often stay in the deep mountains and forests, do you think I will be the one who treats me badly?" Yang Jiao said with a smile.

"Two words, envy." Xu Hongdou shook his head.

"You should have been the manager of a big hotel in the capital before." Yang Jiao took a sip of tea.

"How do you know?" Xu Hongdou was a little surprised.

"You don't think I've been in touch with your parents all these years." Yang Jiao chuckled.

"Why haven't you heard them tell me?" Xu Hongdou asked suspiciously.

"Since you graduated from college, you have been staying in the capital, all you think about is work and promotion, they usually don't have enough time to care about you, where can you tell you about me." Yang Jiao's eyebrows frowned slightly:

"Let's just say that you have to deal with all kinds of customers every day, including a lot of difficult and strange customers, especially night shifts, even if it's a day off, you don't know when there will be a call, you have to stay on call at any time."

"Uncle and aunt just understand your hard work, so I care about your body on weekdays, and I am afraid that the phone call will disturb your rest for a long time."

"Hearing you say that, I think about it now, it's really like this." Xu Hongdou came to his senses and said:

"Don't talk about me, what about you, do you have to leave for the next destination?"

Yang Jiao pondered for a while and said:

"Wandering around for more than ten years, for me, it's enough, don't look at me still looking like I'm still in my twenties, I still look young, after all, I'm thirty-five years old, I think it's time to settle down, and I'll find a place to settle down after I get ready, and then open a random shop."

When Xu Hongdou heard this, a touch of brilliance appeared in his eyes, and he immediately said with a smile:

"I'm ready to retire in advance, but looking at your appearance in the twentieth year, I really can't tell that you are already a thirty-five-year-old middle-aged uncle."

Yang Jiao's eyebrows were slightly raised:

"Forty-one flowers, and your words, it seems that I am only three years younger than me."

Xu Hongdou said with a radiant look:

"Hehe, no matter how old I am, I'm still a big beauty."

The two talked and laughed like this for more than ten or twenty minutes, and the hotel proprietress put together four dishes and one soup.

Xu Hongdou looked at the steaming dishes and handed the camera directly to Yang Jiao:

"Here, take a picture of me."

She waited for Yang Jiao to finish filming, and then said with a smile:

"I'll take another picture for you."

The proprietress of the hotel saw that the two of them had taken pictures of each other, and couldn't help but speak:

"Do you want me to take a picture of the two of you?"
