"You stand, I'll take a few pictures of you." After the steam ferry started, Yu Luying held her baby camera in her hand and actively commanded Xiao Yao.

The girl and the boy stood at the bow of the boat, the river breeze dancing the girl's skirt, and behind her, dozens of long-distance passenger cars parked in a phalanx.

According to Xiao Yao's heart, he was willing to sleep in the car, but Yu Luying was so excited that she seemed to see the Yangtze River for the first time.

Who is the "countryman" between the two of us, the young man thought teasingly.

The hull of the Yangtze River steamboat trembled and made a buzzing sound, and Yu Luying directed Xiao Yao to pose while pressing the shutter excitedly. She photographed Xiao Yao standing at the bow of the boat, and the scenery in the background was all faded, only Xiao Yao's figure was particularly distinct.

"One more, leaning on it!" Yu Luying motioned for Xiao Yao to move a little to the left, and Xiao Yao cooperated with the movement, smiling at the camera.

"Don't crook your mouth when you laugh! Eyes on the camera! Don't squint ─━_─━...... Forget it, or you might as well stop laughing. ”

The steamboat slowly sails on the Yangtze River, the river is sparkling, and the breeze gently blows the water surface, forming small ripples. Sunlight shines through the clouds, giving the entire river a soft golden color.

The riverbank in the distance is undulating and dotted with lush trees. The shoreline on this side of the Jiangnan is slowly out of sight, but the "ideal other side" has not yet jumped out of the horizon.

Some fishing boats and yachts sail across the river, leaving waves that intersect with the waves of the steamboats.

From time to time, white river gulls soar in the air, and in the distance, several cargo ships are moving slowly, their figures shimmering silver-white in the sun.

"Don't shoot anymore," Yu Luying stomped her foot and pouted: "You don't actively cooperate." ”

"Why do I have to actively cooperate, hey sister." Xiao Yao walked over with a wry smile and reached out to take the camera in the girl's hand: "Otherwise, I'll take a picture for you?" ”

"Do you know how to shoot?" Yu Luying asked suspiciously.

"Ah, don't you just look at that little transparent square, aim at the person, and press the shutter button?" Xiao Yao said in a relaxed tone.

“…… You'd better wash and sleep," Yu Luying muttered, "You think this is a fool's machine." ”

"Okay, I'll take a picture of you with my phone." Xiao Yao said.

After Xiao Yao helped Yu Luying take a few photos with her mobile phone, he walked to her side again, turned the mobile phone upside down, held it up at an angle of 45 degrees, and took a few headshots of the two with the river as the background.

"This one looks good."

"This one is pretty."

"This one is also good-looking, but the one just now is even better."

"No, the one just now was so ugly, you deleted it for me."

"Don't delete it."

In front of Yu Luying, Xiao Yao set the photo he was most satisfied with as the wallpaper on the desktop, and displayed it in front of Yu Luying's eyes and shook it: "How about it, don't be rude, I can't let you secretly use our group photo as a wallpaper alone." ”

"You ......" Yu Luying whispered: "You pass this one, and I will replace it with the same one as you." ”

"Okay."

"You can use it for a few days," Yu Luying closed the flip cover of her mobile phone and reminded Xiao Yao: "Remember to replace it before meeting your sister when the time comes, otherwise you will be angry when you turn around and show it to her." ”

"She won't—she's not so stingy." Xiao Yao said.

No, she would, Xiao Yao thought.

"Otherwise, the three of us will take a picture together and make wallpapers together?" Xiao Yao had a whim and proposed.

"You're thinking beautiful—you've been thinking about something all day!" Yu Luying was a little annoyed, and stretched out two fingers to push Xiao Yao's eyebrows: "I'll go back to the car!" ”

Mamma Mia, I can finally go back to the car and blow the air conditioner, Xiao Yao thought.

Yu Luying walked more than ten meters away, stopped her steps, turned around and stared at Xiao Yao, looking like she wanted to speak and stopped.

"You go up first!" Xiao Yao shouted: "I'll take a few pictures of Jiang Jing for her and send them over." ”

"Be careful, don't send our pictures." Yu Luying shouted, then turned around and got into the car.

It's just a hair, why do you act like a thief?

…… Well, it's really not quite right.

Xiao Yao finished taking the photo and trotted back to the car. He had become accustomed to the smell of gasoline, so all he felt was the coolness of the air conditioner.

"Comfortable!" Xiao Yao sat back next to Yu Luying, who was quietly drinking a bottle of mineral water and tearing a packet of potato chips in his hand.

Xiao Yao took the water and potato chips in Yu Luying's hand, raised his head and drank the small half bottle, returned it to her, and helped her tear the potato chips open, and then grabbed a handful.

Finally, he raised the palm of the potato chip to the girl's chin.

Just like when she watched "Beautiful Magic City" in the war movie capital, Yu Luying was like a little bird, and naturally began to peck at Xiao Yao's palm.

No wonder War Park sells a piece of beef for 20 yuan and feeds it to the tigers in the park, and the business is so good.

When feeding animals, people are really satisfied.

After eating these potato chips, Yu Luying took out the magnetic chess again and asked Xiao Yao if he wanted to play.

As soon as Xiao Yao was hoisted and killed, the announcement from the bow of the ship came: "Please pay attention to all passengers, you are about to arrive at the dock on the other side, please return your vehicle and prepare to disembark." ”

"It's pretty fast." Yu Luying put away the chess.

"It's about 45 minutes to 1 hour," Xiao Yao said, "how did you put it away?" Stopped playing? ”

"It's not fun playing with you." Yu Luying pursed her lips.

Well, despised in person again.

Seeing Xiao Yao's injured expression, Yu Luying hurriedly explained: "No, I'm joking with you, mainly because I'm driving, and if I continue to play, I will get motion sickness." ”

It's okay not to mention the word "motion sickness", as soon as "motion sickness" is mentioned, Xiao Yao is like being set up with a FLAG, and he immediately feels it when he comes ashore.

"Why do you still have motion sickness?" Yu Luying's face turned pale, covered her mouth, and complained in a low voice.

"Maybe you're motion sick?" Xiao Yao forcibly said hard.

"I almost never get motion sickness." Yu Luying told Xiao Yao.

Xiao Yao was in no mood to pick on Yu Luying's sick sentences, and soon, the two of them didn't have the strength to quarrel.

The boy and the girl each leaned back in their chairs, their eyes closed and their teeth clenched, fighting against the tumbling of their stomachs.

The smell of gasoline began to penetrate his nostrils again, and every time he smelled it, Xiao Yao's desire to vomit increased a little more.

At this time, he wanted to give himself a stick to the back of his head in order to be relieved from his misery.

After arriving in Jiangbei and going ashore, the painting style on both sides of the road is completely different from the scenery around the magic capital, but Yu Luying is not in the mood to appreciate it.

She also tried to distract herself by admiring the scenery outside the window, but soon found that this did not help, but rather made her feel more "feeling", so she quickly sat up straight, kept her upper body straight, and tried to irritate her stomach as little as possible, then closed her eyes again and silently recited Hail Mary three times in her heart.

Xiao Yao didn't know whether this was the boundary of Nantong or Tongzhou, but he only knew that this journey had just passed more than 1/3 of the mileage, but he lied to Yu Luying that there was less than 1/3 left, so as not to make the other party despair.

Fortunately, the road conditions are quite good after going ashore, and the long-distance passenger bus is speeding like a teenager on the national highway, and it is as comfortable as if it is smooth after long-term constipation. This gave Xiao Yao a little psychological comfort, and made him have some unrealistic expectations for getting rid of this human suffering as soon as possible.

In the end, when Xiao Yao drove to the territory of Matang, he fell into the deepest darkness before dawn.

"Wow." He used his hands to support the plastic bag that asked the big brother of Northeast rice in front of him to come, and poured thousands of miles.

The collapse of minors is often in an instant.

What's even more devastating is that after vomiting, the discomfort of motion sickness has not been relieved.

The ranking officials must have had a similar experience - in a dream I wanted to go to the toilet, and then went to the toilet everywhere, repeatedly went to the toilet, but the pressure on the bladder was not reduced in the slightest, and finally I was awakened by myself, only to find that I really needed to go to the toilet.

Xiao Yao felt like this after vomiting, but he didn't suspect that he was dreaming, but realized the source of the problem for the first time.

He turned his head to look at the girl beside him, who was struggling to open the glass window.

"Danger! Beware of it! Don't stick your head out too much! Xiao Yao nervously grabbed Yu Luying's left shoulder with one hand, and while subconsciously pulling the girl's head back, he slapped the back of the other party's heart with the other hand.

……

Xiao Yao was comfortable.

It's comfortable in the stomach, but it's still uncomfortable in the mouth.

"You, why are you working so hard...... Yu Luying gasped and said, with a few crystal tears hanging from the corners of her eyes.

Xiao Yao took out a tissue, carefully wiped the corners of Yu Luying's mouth, and then wiped the corners of her eyes - thinking that something was wrong, the order was reversed, so he quickly braked halfway, and changed a clean tissue to wipe the corners of her eyes.

The gossipy Northeast rice brother in the front row enthusiastically handed over a bottle of unopened mineral water, Xiao Yao gratefully accepted the carbon sent in the snow, first served Yu Luying to rinse his mouth, and then rinsed himself with the remaining water, and the two of them drank the remaining mineral water separately, and then they came back to life together.

Spit is healthier.

When I arrived in Matang, it was not far from Dongru, and the bus was running wildly on the potholed national highway, bumping up and down, but Xiao Yao didn't feel uncomfortable anymore, but became excited.

"Little Apple, this time it's really coming, it's going to be liberated." Xiao Yao said to Yu Luying.

"Hmm." Yu Luying nodded.

"You two, go back to your hometown for the summer vacation? Got summer vacation? The Northeast rice brother who delivered the water turned his head and asked in a loud voice in Dongru's dialect.

"Yes, yes," Xiao Yao replied in a somewhat rusty Dongru dialect: "I am, she is not, she is my classmate, accompany me." ”

"Oh!" Brother Rice in the Northeast said: "Your classmate ......"

The two of them just talked about each other, Yu Luying looked at this and that, but she couldn't understand a word.

I just think this dialect is very ugly.

Before you know it, the long-distance passenger bus completed its final sprint and turned into the parking lot of the "Dongru Bus Station".

Xiao Yao let out a small cheer, helped Yu Luying to stand up slowly, carried the duffel bags of two people in his hands, plus a plastic bag filled with filth and mouthwash, and got out of the car in the crowd.

"Finally, it......'s over," Yu Luying weakly held her thin waist with one hand.

"It's hard to walk, it's hard to walk, it's hard to walk, it's hard to get there? There will be times when the wind and waves will be long, and the clouds will sail into the sea. Xiao Yao waved his hand heroically.

Fortunately, Dongru seems to have just rained here, but he no longer has to be attacked by the scorching sun, and he is very comfortable.

said goodbye to the rice brother in the northeast, Yu Luying sent a message to her mother, Xiao Yao sent a message to his wife, and as soon as the word was typed, the call from the neighbor urging came in again.

But neither Xiao Yao nor Yu Luying wanted to go back directly to repair the water pipes, Xiao Yao meant "hungry, hungry, rice", and Yu Luying said that her mother told her to go to the hotel to put down her things first.

The hotel that Yu Lihua had booked was right next to the bus station, apparently to make it easier for her daughter to come and go. Xiao Yao accompanied Yu Luying to the front desk, and the service desk lady told the two in Dongru that it was not time to check in.

"What did she say?" Yu Luying said tiredly.

"She said she would have to register at 2 o'clock." Xiao Yao translated.

"Isn't this already a little more ......," Yu Luying said with her already big eyes.

Helplessly, the matter has come to this point, so I have to eat first.

They didn't have the strength to walk more, so they found a random restaurant next to the bus station to eat.

"Wow, you're so cheap to eat." After Yu Luying sat down, she glanced at the plastic paper menu and said.

"It's expensive," Xiao Yao told Yu Luying, "because it's close to the bus station." ”

"Hey, big rabbit paper, look at this, stir-fried clams, is it the one you said, Dongru specialty?" Yu Luying's eyes lit up, and she pushed the menu along the glass table to Xiao Yao.

Xiao Yao glanced at it and said, "Yes." ”

"I want to eat."

"Dot."

Although I don't like to eat clams very much, but when you come here, you don't let people taste local specialties, so naturally you can't say anything - helpless, you have to sacrifice your life to accompany the woman.

"Come with me on this trip, thank you for your hard work." After the two ordered, Xiao Yao said politely to Yu Luying again.

"Hmm." Yu Luying was not polite to him.

"Do you know, this journey reminds me of Fang Hong's journey to Sanlu University to teach in "The Siege".

"Well, me too," Yu Luying nodded, "But people have been walking for a few months, and we have only been five hours, but the overall feeling is that we are physically and mentally exhausted." ”

"Didn't Qian Zhongshu say in "The Siege" that long-distance travel is the most important thing to test a person's nature, so couples who have traveled together and have not broken up when they come back are more stable," Xiao Yao said eloquently: "Qian Zhongshu also said, so the honeymoon trip should be put before getting married, as the last test——"

"Hmm." Yu Luying's gaze drifted to the window of the restaurant.

"Do you remember, Fang Hongjian asked at that time...... Ask...... Zhao Xinlin? Or Miss Sun? Ask them, "Do you think I hate it after this trip?" ”

"People replied to him," Yu Luying said, "You are not annoying, but you are useless." ”

"Hahahahahahahaha......ha That's right," Xiao Yao finished laughing, and asked Yu Luying again: "Then what do you think of me?" ”

Yu Luying glanced at him, and an imperceptible smile appeared on the corner of her mouth: "You are a bit useful, but you are very annoying." ”
