As soon as Chen Xing asked, the old man touched his beard and said, "...... This mailbox, isn't this for you to take a picture? ”

"Huh?" Chen Xing was speechless for a while. But soon the old man laughed and said, "Just kidding." But there are a lot of young people who like to take pictures in front of my mailbox, but it's strange that there are fewer people after the recent renovation. Chen Xing looked at the mailbox outside the door and thought about the surrounding environment.

Indeed, a bright red mailbox was placed there abruptly, not as old as his.

"The real situation is that I still like to use letters to communicate with old friends, and although my mobile phone is very convenient now, whether it is a phone call or a normal chat, I don't have the feeling of writing and reading letters." He touched his beard, saw that Chen Xing was so young, and said with a sigh: "But people of your age shouldn't understand." ”

"It's like reading, I should know." Chen Xing said. Sitting in a chair or sofa reading a book that excites you is a pleasant place to read.

He nodded, mumbled, and said loudly: "It's almost, it's such a simple situation anyway, nothing special." Chen Xing is the kind of person who wakes up in the morning and looks for his mobile phone as soon as he gets up, and it is hard to imagine what to do without a mobile phone.

But if you think about it, do people really need mobile phones? If you don't fall in love, most people use their mobile phones to talk for half an hour a day, even if they are busy with business, but Chen Xing often plays with his mobile phone at home for a day, staring at it for at least six or seven hours.

It's a bad habit. It's a pity that I can't quit anymore. Mr. Wang's grandson had already packed the boat that Chen Xing wanted with a lot of stuff in it, and asked, "Do you need us to help you send it somewhere?" If you need it, you can fill in an address. Chen Xing nodded, and went over to write the address of his hometown.

When the time comes, let my mother help me get it back first. When I went out, a person with a post office written on his back drove past the road on a small tricycle, waving an envelope and shouting, "Boss Wang, your letter has arrived." ”

"Okay." The old gentleman who was chatting with Chen Xing just now walked out and smiled happily, Chen Xing hurriedly picked up the camera to capture the moment when he received the letter, the smile on his face was completely from the heart, and when he saw the letter, it was like seeing an old friend who sent the letter.

And only this kind of faith, which can be seen for a long time, has such power. The time it takes for letters to be sent and received is very long, which Chen Xing believes is a disadvantage, because he is used to getting a reply as soon as possible after asking questions.

But perhaps this is the charm and merit of faith in their eyes, because the longer they come together, the more they look forward to it.

Isn't it a kind of hunger marketing? Chen Xing smiled and continued his trip in Pingjiang with his bag.

He came to Suzhou to listen to the commentary, and Chen Xing remembered that the two teachers said about the new teahouse when they left.

But after he came here, he didn't take the initiative to open the navigation to look for it. The Pingjiang Historic District is also so big, take a look, take a walk, as long as it is not too remote, you will definitely be able to find it.

Most of Suzhou's ancient city has rivers running through the city, and this one in the center of Suzhou is no different, with canals from moats, but unlike other ancient cities, the canals here are square and angular.

Basically, it is a square place surrounded by a canal, which is the appearance of a square market. This kind of fang market also divides Pingjiang into many parts.

When he walked to the Kunqu Opera Museum, Chen Xing saw it on the opposite side of the museum

The sign of "Commenting on the New Teahouse". Their small building has been renovated, but the renovation in this kind of attraction is strictly controlled, and you can't say that you can make it look whatever you want.

Therefore, although bright glass is used as a wall, the entrance and the second floor are all built in an antique style.

On the second floor, there is a row of windows that let out the low-brightness of the warm lights, much like the people in the TV who are seen lighting candles through the screens.

The TV is lit up, otherwise a single candle would not be so bright. At this time, a window on the second floor was pushed open, and a girl in Hanfu looked out curiously.

The atmosphere is so good. It is especially easy to see such tourists wearing Hanfu when visiting the ancient town of Suzhou, and many local Hanfu shops and even hotels have the business of renting Hanfu.

If people living in Suzhou want to be photographers, then their skills must not swish? What's that called?

The building near the water gets the moon first. Push open the door and walk in, there is the cash register on the right, and in front of it is the lobby with wooden seats, where many tourists drink tea and listen to music.

At the front is a small stage, which is similar to the stage Chen Xing saw in Wuzhen, except that there is a very beautiful curtain of 'Ping Xin She'.

The people who sang happened to be Zhou Bojun and Lu Shi'an. The two of them should be partners, Zhou Bojun plays the three strings, and Lu Shi'an plays the pipa.

Sister Lu's name is very cultured as soon as she hears it, unlike Chen Xing, who took a single star. I heard that it was his grandfather who watched the sky at night when he was born, and said that the starry sky was particularly bright that night, so he named it Chen Xing.

But it's better than some weird name. Chen Xing ordered a cup of tea and sat down, and when Sister Lu saw Chen Xing, she smiled and nodded.

They sang a slow song. This song is very common in the ancient towns in the south of the Yangtze River, whether it is Xitang, Wuzhen, or Zhouzhuang, Chen Xing can hear this song being sung inside the outside of many teahouses.

Singing this song is mainly sung by female voices, Zhou Bojun's hand kept playing the three-string accompaniment, and his eyes also saw Chen Xing, so he also made a smile and nodded like Sister Lu.

Let many tourists look back at Chen Xing. And then there's the song The End of the World. Wow this song! His mother likes Teresa Teng very much, so Chen Xing has heard Teresa Teng's version many times, and when he heard the news curtain just now, he felt that he should have the ability to resist.

But I didn't expect that as soon as the Wu version was sung, Chen Xing fell. may be the reason why she can understand Wu and Sister Lu sings with a sense of story, especially when Sister Lu sings the part of looking for a bosom friend and the transposition of the bosom friend, Chen Xing's ears are crispy.

Suzhou Pingtan is really a good one. In Chen Xing's impression, it seems that he has not seen the propaganda of Pingtan in any media, and it is too low-key, the key is that it is also a wonderful form of artistic expression, but the attention they receive is far less than that of Peking Opera.

There are so many forms of artistic expression in China, why doesn't the Spring Festival Gala consider anything other than Peking Opera?

Forget it, their family hasn't watched the Spring Festival Gala for several years, who does the program team invite. Chen Xing listened carefully to the singing.

In addition to some modern songs and local tunes in Suzhou, the two also performed some traditional jokes on stage.

When singing these traditional jokes, many tourists can't understand them, and can only feel the tunes and music. However, Chen Xing's happiness is not discounted.

Listening to it in a teahouse is much more enjoyable than listening to it in a hotel in Wuzhen, and even the time is much longer.

After a while, two other commentators came to replace them, and Chen Xing met with Zhou Bojun and them.

Chen Xing always felt that the two of them looked at him very strangely, and couldn't help but look down at what he was wearing.

Then he looked up and asked, "What's wrong?" We haven't seen each other for a few days, Sister Lu doesn't know me anymore? ”

"We didn't expect you to be so powerful."

"They're bragging." Chen Xing raised his camera and asked, "Then can I take a picture of you?" ”

"Absolutely." Lu Shi'an nodded and said, then suddenly thought of a question and said, "Is it free?" ”

"It's free." This is what he wants to shoot, so he doesn't have to charge money, and even Chen Xing thought about whether he could spend a little money to let them be his models, which is a convenient time.

Hearing that Chen Xing was going to take pictures, Lu Shi'an was fine, but Zhou Bojun was a little nervous.

"We're shooting in a teahouse?"

"No, there are a lot of nice views outside." He didn't come to shoot humanities, naturally how to look good and how to shoot, and it was only a success to show the softness of Suzhou Pingtan from the visual effects.

So he will use the view of the ancient town, not the teahouse interior. Although the two artists in front of Chen Xing are artists from Suzhou, they still don't know how to pose naturally in front of the camera.

You have to guide it slowly. It was much more difficult to guide them than the dancers before them, but after removing their nervousness, the progress was also very fast, and Chen Xing saved all the styles he wanted to shoot in the camera before dinner.

"Then thank you in advance, teachers." Lu Shi'an shook his head, although he was very tired from taking pictures, he was not tired of singing and playing the piano in the teahouse all the time.

It was also nice to stay for a day and come outside to see the scenery.

"No thanks, we should thank you for your willingness to promote our evaluation." Chen Xing smiled and said: "What is this, as a Chinese person, it must be, let's go, I will invite the two teachers to eat something, I have worked hard all afternoon today......" Zhou Bojun did not let Chen Xing come to entertain him, and paid for a meal at his own expense.

It is a very ordinary Suzhou restaurant on the side of the road. Suzhou cuisine Chen Xing has been used to eating for so long, anyway, it is not spicy, pay attention to the original taste, as well as fresh and smooth and tender, what he is best at is all kinds of sweet and sour, braised and steamed methods.

In this dinner, Chen Xing found another dish that he liked to eat. The color and appearance are a bit like their famous dishes in Sichuan Province, but the bamboo shoots in this one are more crispy, and they don't use kelp and sea cucumber or anything, they use bacon and pork belly, and the pork belly is cut into large pieces like Dongpo meat.

Especially the bamboo shoots are delicious, and the meat is forgotten. The pork belly in this restaurant is a little fat, and Chen Xing still likes the fat meat of Dongpo meat, and it will be more comfortable to eat if he doesn't feel the taste of fatty meat.

Following them back to the teahouse to get the backpack, Lu Shi'an asked Chen Xing, "Have you found a place to live tonight?" ”

"Yes, thank you, Sister Lu." In fact, he hasn't looked for it yet, but he doesn't plan to live in the ancient town, the city of Suzhou outside is so prosperous, it's not easy to find a place to live?

After running for so many days after coming back from Paris, Chen Xing also wanted to find a hotel with a bathtub and lie in it to be comfortable.

Coming out of this scenic spot, Chen Xing stopped a taxi.

"Master, are there any better hotels in Suzhou?"

"It depends on what you think of the good, there is the Metropark Hotel in the near area, and the Marriott Hotel and the Shangri-La Hotel in the farther side, depending on where you are going."

"Let's go to Marriott." Chen Xing has stayed in the Marriott Hotel many times, so he also subconsciously went to the hotel he was more familiar with.

"Okay, handsome guy fasten his seatbelt first." He speaks very interestingly, not like Mandarin, nor in the northern dialect or in the Sichuan-Chongqing dialect, nor like Suzhou.

Chen Xing fastened his seat belt first and asked, "Where is the master from?" ”

"Me? Wuyuan, Jiangxi. ”

"Jiangxi?"

"yes, is my accent a bit heavy and you can't understand me?"

"No, no." Chen Xing shook his head and said,

"It's just that I'm going to Jiangxi, and I think it's a bit of a coincidence."

"That's it, haha." Hearing that the guest was going to his hometown, the driver was also happier and said, "It's still a business trip over there or a tour." ”

"Count it as a tour." Business trips plus tourism, after all, are rich. On WeChat, he had already chatted with the leaders of the Tourism and Cultural Bureau over there, saying that he would send him a message when Chen Xing arrived in Jiangxi, saying that he would come to pick up Chen Xing in person, and also revealed that there would be a good publicity fee for promoting any scenic spot in Jiangxi.

It's a bit like visiting the store to promote the restaurant, but Chen Xing's side is a little more high-end and free.

There are also a lot of sisters wearing shorts on the streets of Suzhou. Chen Xing kept looking out the window. I didn't delay chatting and asked a lot about Jiangxi.

The driver's eldest brother said that he was in his hometown in Jiangxi, and said that he hadn't seen his child for a long time. Chen Xing turned his head to look at him......

"Master, are you married?"

"Yes, the kids are six years old."

"I can't see it at all, master, you're so young." He looks like a white-collar worker in his twenties, with a neat back and a clean face.

If he didn't say that his child was six years old, Chen Xing wouldn't believe that he was actually a married person at all.

"Haha, thank you."

"Your hometown is in Jiangxi, and it is very inconvenient to come here to work." The driver was deeply touched, sighed and nodded and said: "I haven't been back to see it since the Chinese New Year, and it will take a day to go back and forth from here to Jiangxi, and I don't have this time." Sometimes it's still very sad to hear her cry on the phone. ”

"Girl?"

"yes, it's cute." He showed a very sweet smile and wanted to take out his mobile phone to let Chen Xing see his daughter, but it was inconvenient now, so he said, "Anyway, it's really cute." ”

"I believe it." Chen Xing said. This driver is already quite handsome and tall. It's also very responsible.

Maybe because of his personality, most of Chen Xing's friends are similar to him, such as Zhou Peng, or the group of fox friends and dog friends he made in Paris, all of whom are fun-loving and noisy personalities.

This is a good man. Chen Xing sighed with emotion, raised his hand and looked at the time, it was only past six o'clock.

"Master, how long does it take to get from here to your hometown?"

"Four or five hours by train, right?"

"What about driving?"

"More than five hours by car? I don't know, I haven't driven back. Chen Xing put his hand on the co-pilot's seat, leaned forward, and asked seriously, "Do you want to go home now?" Driving home from here, I covered all the fuel and gas expenses on the way, and I will invite you to have a supper when you are hungry for a while. ”
