The early morning of the sky grassland is like in the mist, the distant mountains, pine tower trees, green land, grass and smoke converge, the shape will be like a white strip, one will be like smoke from a chimney, and one will be like a hill, such a scene Wang Chu really thought was in a dream.

Looking into the distance, a yurt house was almost completed, and more than a dozen herdsmen had gathered there, including Li Haoran, who and a few children had twisted all kinds of clay figurine shapes on the edge of the mud pit, and their faces were covered with mud. Li Xiangyang fixed a wooden stick with a rope, and he wrapped several ropes before fixing the stake.

"Are you awake?" Li Xiangyang saw Wang Chu walking over and asked.

Wang Chu looked at the yurt that was about to be built, "I missed the procedure of building the entire yurt, you guys are so fast." ”

"With so many herders helping me, of course it's going to be soon." Talia tied the curtain to another man.

Wang Chu nodded, "It's all a group of enthusiastic herdsmen. ”

"The yurt was set up in no time." Li Xiangyang's face was covered with dirt, and he was soaked in sweat, "We'll set off right away and go to the next stop." ”

"Where are we going?" Wang Chu asked.

"Bagua City, Karajun, Sailim Lake, these tourist attractions are all places I want to take you to." Li Xiangyang explained.

Taliya cast an envious gaze, "Sister, how happy do you look?" There is such a husband who loves you. ”

Wang Chu nodded and smiled in accommodation, "Compared to the harm he gave, he just did a hundred touching things, and he couldn't make up for the mistakes he had made." She thought so in her heart, but she said, "Liya, you also have to work hard and strive to find someone who loves you as soon as possible." ”

Taliya frowned, "I'll test my personal affairs when I've completely sorted out my mood." ”

"Come on." Wang Chu raised his fist and made a cheering gesture, and Taliya did the same.

Wang Chu didn't care about the handle, the yurt had been built, and the car set off on a large expanse of grass. She and Li Haoran stuck their heads out of the sunroof of the car, and said goodbye to Taliya and her children in the simplest way, with a hint of loneliness in their eyes, "Liya, come on, I will come to see you." ”

"I'll wait for you and look forward to seeing you next time." Taliya burst into tears, the car had already gone away, and the gray smoke covered the figure in the distance in less than half an hour.

The car is speeding on the highway, passing by the Guozigou Bridge, the scenery on both sides hurriedly leaves the sight, and there is no end in sight in front of you, and not far away a huge lake soaked with blue tears should be Sailim Lake.

The car slowed down, Wang Chu, Li Haoran, and Li Xiangyang got out of the car one after another, she forgot to stay, she didn't move, Li Xiangyang took her hand and motioned her to the lake. She slowly looked towards the crowd and saw a tall, thin woman standing on a rock in the middle of the lake with various movements to take pictures. Not far away, a man took off his crumpled coat and threw his fishing rod into the distance, startling the swans to leave in droves.

Wang Chu watched from a distance, looking at the water and sky stupidly, the mountains in the distance of the lake are clustered, the shore is full of yellow flowers and green grass, cattle and sheep are grazing peacefully, swans are crossing from the center of the lake, the water color, the sky and the grassland, outline a beautiful world. She suddenly thought of a sentence, "The mountains reflect the slanting sun, the sky catches the water, the grass is ruthless, and it is even outside the slanting sun." That was Fan Zhongyan's mood of writing about homesickness, but she was particularly sad at the moment.

Not far away, the tour guide took more than a dozen tourists to introduce while walking, "What we see is Sailim Lake, which is located in the alpine basin of the western section of Tianshan Mountain in Bole City, Xinjiang, and is called "Sailim Zhuoer" in Mongolian, which means "lake on the ridge of the mountain", and there is an ancient and poignant story ...... here. ”

The tour guide told the travelers that the legendary Lake Selim was formed by the tears of a pair of Kazakh lovers who died for their love. A long, long time ago, the lake was a beautiful grassland full of flowers, there was a beautiful and kind girl and a handsome boy grazing here and loved each other deeply, once, the girl was destroyed by the grassland demon king on the way to grazing, the girl would rather die than obey, throw the jade to the ground, the earth burst, suddenly exposed a deep pool, the girl plunged in. The young man shouted the girl's name sadly, and plunged into the deep pool, and the two of them poured out tears, and the prairie turned into a sea in an instant, so that the lovers' sincere love and tears of grief turned into the water of the Sailim Lake.

Listening to this story, Wang Chu was quite sad.

"Go to the rocks with your son." Li Xiangyang took the camera off his neck and posed for a photo, "Take a photo of your mother." ”

Wang Chu complied, she pulled Li Haoran onto the rock, Li Haoran's movements were more agile than her, and the lake wet her shoes, none of this mattered. The silence behind her and the gorgeous dusk and sunset, and the endless blue lake and sky are presented in the shot, and she holds up a cloud in the sky with one hand and combs the ends of her hair with the other, and the effect is absolutely beautiful.

The scenery of Karajun is very different from the sky grassland, the sky grassland is full of mountains, pine tower trees, grassland, and Karajun is higher terrain, most of the scenic spots are in the mountains and hills, and the vegetation is growing next to the ground, although they are all grasslands, but the degree of luxuriance is far less than the sky grassland of Nalati.

After returning to Turks County from Karajun, they stayed in Bagua City that day, and it is said that they could witness its mystery only by standing on the observation deck and looking at the night view of the city. Wang Chu walked out of the hotel alone and took a taxi, which started from the center and went straight down a street without even turning a corner.

Entering the county center, Wang Chu found that there were no traffic lights in the entire Bagua City, which made her very surprised and puzzled, and later got the answer in a restaurant. It is said that in 1966, the relevant departments canceled the traffic lights in Bagua City, according to experts and scholars have proposed that since the roads are connected and connected, this will not be congested and blocked for a county, and vehicles and pedestrians can reach the destination no matter which direction they go.

In addition to the lack of traffic lights, there is also a strange thing about Bagua City, that is, it is easy to make outsiders "turn". According to the taxi driver, an out-of-town driver was seriously overloaded, and after the car arrived in Bagua City, he realized that he might run into traffic police on the street. So, he took advantage of the night to choose a road that he thought was remote and detoured to the vicinity of the central Bagua Cultural Square. With the help of the light, he saw a traffic policeman on duty in front of him from a distance, and he was so frightened that he turned around urgently and prepared to bypass.

When he took a chance and went around from other roads to the front, he saw that there were still traffic police in front of him. He "sneakily" detoured from another road, this time with a longer detour and more circles, but no matter how he detoured, he just couldn't avoid the "annoying" traffic police. He continued to circle without believing in "evil", and in this way he went around more and more each time, and went farther and farther each time, and in the end he couldn't remember how many times he went around, and the "confused" driver went around all night. The next day, exhausted, he told his "encounter" to his peers, which turned out to be a joke that quickly spread throughout the county. In fact, this "dizzy" driver saw the traffic police at the intersection of the central gossip culture square one night.

After listening to this story, Wang Chu smiled, she is currently experiencing the Bagua City with the same roads and connected streets. When she walked through the whole gossip city in the car, she really realized that the "dizzy" driver's experience was a street that could not be bypassed, and a circle that could not be turned.

In the end, the driver sent Wang Chu to a remote desert, the so-called observation deck is the farthest hillside from the center of the county, only to find out that she misinterpreted the meaning of the said, but it was definitely not in vain from the center of the county to the edge of the nearly half an hour's journey.

The appearance of the county town is like a good Bagua array, each curve of the light harmony makes the whole Bagua map look particularly clear, its shape is like a shooting circle like the Bagua map, the street layout is like a magical labyrinth, eight main roads, plus four ring roads. There are 8 streets in the 1st Ring Road, 16 streets in the 2nd Ring Road, 32 streets in the 3rd Ring Road, and 64 streets in the 4th Ring Road. These streets form sixty-four hexagrams according to the direction of the eight trigrams, the strips are connected, the streets are connected, and the streets are connected, which truly reflects the 64 hexagrams and 384 hexagrams of the I Ching mathematics, of course, these data Wang Chu did not count, but searched for relevant information in Baidu on the mobile phone.

Baidu explained that this is a city that was awarded the "world's largest gossip city in the world" by the Shanghai Guinness headquarters, and is a city where people of 22 ethnic groups such as Yueshi, Wusun, Mongolia, Kirgiz, Kazakh, Uygur, and Han have lived in history, and it is also the place where the two princesses, Liu Xijun and Liu Jiewu, the granddaughters of Emperor Liu Che of the Han Dynasty, lived, and it is the interweaving place of Wusun culture and I Ching culture.

When he returned to the hotel, it was getting late, Li Haoran had already fallen asleep, Li Xiangyang was sitting on a chair, his face was pale, "Where are you going?" He asked, "You don't answer the phone and you don't reply to the messages, what do you want to do?" ”

"I'm not dead, I'm back alive." Wang Chu had a calm face, she took off her shirt and planned to lie on Li Haoran's bed, Li Xiangyang reached out and pulled her, she pushed him away and hugged Haohao tightly.

At the end of the journey, Wang Chu suddenly felt a little bored, a trip had exhausted all the energy in her body, and her mental state seemed to be extremely poor, because she did not have enough sleep. Li Xiangyang's state is not much better, the whole journey has been nearly half a month, Li Haoran fell asleep as soon as she got in the car, and on the way back, she didn't close her eyes all the way, nor did she say a word to Li Xiangyang.

Back at home, Wang Chu still treated Li Xiangyang in the same way as before, sleeping in the same room with Li Haoran, sometimes, he would deliberately cook a candlelight dinner, mainly based on fruit bowls made of various fruits, but she would always take a nonchalant look, and would not even look at it, and then walked into Li Haoran's room.

"What the hell do you want?" Li Xiangyang finally couldn't bear it anymore, and knocked the fruit plate to the ground, "It's been more than a year, you can't get by, right?" ”

Wang Chu was stunned, his heart ached, turned around, looked at the fruits rolling all over the ground, and then floated up to Li Xiangyang's gaze, "There are some injuries, it's not something you can make up for by doing many touching things." With that, she turned back to her room and closed the door. I heard another crackling sound in the living room, followed by the sound of him going crazy. She ignored it, lay beside Li Haoran expressionlessly, and helped him cover the quilt.

Except for work, Wang Chu doesn't like to go out, except for her best friend Yang Huimin, she basically doesn't intersect with anyone, which is also a headache for Li Xiangyang.

"You should know a few more of your peers." Finally one day, Li Xiangyang persuaded, "Your social circle is too small, I know that some of the friends I contacted before have a generation gap with you, they are all post-70s, and you don't want to associate with them, I will take you to meet some peers another day, all of them are post-80s, you will definitely be able to talk." ”

"I think it's very good, a stable life, a clean life circle, writing novels and writing news in my spare time, there is nothing more comfortable than my life now."

"Don't live in your own world, your novels may not be famous, and if you continue like this, you will be derailed from society."

"We already live in a place with a big palm, and it's not a big city, and our people here have long been derailed from society."

"You can't say that, people who don't necessarily live in big cities have seen the world, they haven't been derailed from society, and those who don't want to go out don't have a broad mind, have those people seen how cotton is grown? Ever seen how apples are grafted? Have you ever seen how Uyghur clay pottery is fired? If you go out for journalism training and travel to Ili, you must have gained a lot of knowledge, right? Meet some people who might inspire your creations. ”

Li Xiangyang pulled her out without Wang Chu's consent, which was the fourth floor of the highest building. The highest building here is only the fourth floor, the same as Wang Chu's house. The hostess of the house is called Xiaoju, this capable woman, she is alone in the hard work of forty acres of land, and she can barely earn a living allowance a year, her husband's name is Yang Qiang, and everyone calls him Brother Qiang. He Ying, who runs a shop in the regiment, has a daughter who is less than two years old, her husband's name is Zhang Yongdong, everyone calls him a big winter melon, and he is in charge of the irrigation water of an agricultural company, and the power in his hands is equivalent to the secretary of the company commander. Wang Pingping, the most common profession, only has a salary of 600 yuan a month for cleaning the leader's office and conference room. She also has a job of receiving newspapers from the post office every week and distributing them to each leader and department, so when she meets Wang Chu, she is very kind and excited.

"Section Chief Li, you are finally willing to bring your wife out to us." Wang Pingping said in an envious and stammering tone.

"My wife, she just doesn't want to go out, and I pulled it out today." Li Xiangyang explained.

"I've been sorting out the newspaper for two years, and I can see your name in every issue of the newspaper, and today I finally met the real person."

"Nice to meet you." Wang Chu took the initiative to stretch out his hand and shake hands with Wang Pingping.

Wang Pingping wiped her hand on her clothes, which did not mean that she did it on purpose, "I am fortunate to know you." ”

Wang Pingping looks very tall and strong, with a large skeleton, and the flesh on her body also has two swimming rings, but her face is good-looking, and the artificially cut double eyelids are indeed a little good-looking with her bright eyes. She loves to dress up, and she is very particular about dressing, wearing a tight black shirt on the top and a denim skirt on the bottom, which completely sets off her figure, and a pale, slightly cute face reveals polite curiosity. Her husband Xu Zhuo seems to be an honest person, in many crowds, he never expresses his opinions, nor does he talk to him, he only cares about a simple smile, he is a very warm man at home, as long as he is at home, he basically cooks for Wang Pingping.

He Ying can be regarded as the most beautiful and decent one, she has a tall and slender figure, her skin is pleated, her eyes and nose are good-looking, and she looks incompatible with Zhou Yongdong, who is short and chubby, with dark skin. But I have to say that He Ying is the happiest woman, Zhou Yongdong will never let his women cook, wash clothes, mop the floor, clean up the housework, and this man takes care of it well inside and outside the house. He Ying will not let He Ying do the heavy work in the store, he always finishes the work as soon as possible, and goes to help his daughter-in-law take care of the store.

But in Brother Qiang's words, it is a different statement, "A man who is afraid of his wife has no interest at all, and this is the end of your life." ”

Zhou Yongdong patted his chest confidently and snuggled behind He Ying, "I'm afraid of my wife, I'm afraid of my wife, I'm proud." ”

"Yes." Xiaoju walked out of the kitchen with a plate of dishes, "People coax their wives well, and only when they serve them well can they be called happy." ”

"What do you want to say?" Yang Qiang stood in front of the window, holding his mobile phone in one hand and teasing, "You mean that if I didn't coax you well, you wouldn't be happy?" ”

"In this regard, you have to learn from your brother, you are really inferior to him." Xiao Ju glared dissatisfiedly and wanted to go to the kitchen.

Yang Qiang immediately put down his mobile phone, grabbed Xiaoju, took off his apron, tied it to himself, and pressed her down on the sofa, "Wife, I'll make the next dishes, I'll let you really experience what a happy woman is." ”

"Roar." Wang Pingping showed an incredible look, "Anyway, the sun has come out of the west, I think the sun tomorrow morning is estimated to come out of the desert, and you have to behave my sister for a long time to feel happy!" ”

"I guess the sun will come out of the desert tomorrow." Xiao Ju held her mouth dissatisfied, but it was not difficult to see the joy in her heart, "I think you can make me happy for a few days?" ”

Seeing such a scene, Wang Chu didn't feel a sour nose, but he still smiled with relief. Such a family probably seeks peace in quarrels, seeks stability in plainness, and has no internal injuries and estrangements, so that it will seem so warm, sweet and happy.

Although Xiaoju does not have a very high appearance or a slender figure, she definitely has a heart that is easy to satisfy and tolerate. To put it bluntly, Brother Qiang is also very average-looking, most of his hair is gray, his skin is black and oily, and he has acne on his face. In seventy-six years, he was able to marry a daughter-in-law who was six years younger than him, and he could be regarded as an old cow eating tender grass, just like Li Xiangyang and Wang Chu were old.

But Wang Chu calculated that she and Li Xiangyang are compatible, and the dragon and the dog are extremely unworthy of all the genera, regardless of personality characteristics and life, marriage and family are full of countless variables. Just like between them, nearly five years of marriage, quarrels, verbal abuse, cold violence, and beatings have swept away all the pride and enthusiasm on her body, and even when she goes out, especially in this kind of scene, she has to pretend that they are very happy, which makes outsiders look envious.
