We walked out of the monastery and had just walked a few steps when the little monk came out of nowhere and whispered to us, "Please follow me."

After a long walk, I came to the mountain gate.

Out of the mountain gate, I have a stomach to ask the master.

The first question is: So who is Dr. Tang?

The master said: "He is a professor at Jiangcheng Normal University, an expert in the history of the Ming and Qing dynasties, especially in the study of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom.

"He studied in Japan and spent a few years in Hong Kong, and his path is very wild, and the people he has made are not ordinary.

"The first is that he recognizes the goods, the second is that he can afford the price, and the third is secretive, and he has never made a mistake in the past five or six years."

The second question is: Master, why is your surname Jin?

The master laughed: "Do you think our Dao Ancestor has many names?" In his hometown, he was called "Fan Li" or "Young Uncle", and after arriving in Yue, he was called Fan Dafu.

"After doing business in Qi State, he changed his name to Ouyi Zipi, which is a cowhide wine bag.

After arriving in the pottery land, he called himself Zhu Gong, and because he lived in the pottery land, he was called Tao Zhu Gong.

"As a descendant of Qingfumen, I don't have a few pseudonyms, how can I walk the rivers and lakes?

"Hu Sheng is my real name, and Jin Tiekou is my name for divination."

There is also a question: why did you tell him that we live in Peach Blossom Pond? Since it has been hidden for many years.

The master said: "In the past, it was all one or two treasure money transactions, so it didn't matter. Now that he has paid so much at once, if you don't pay the bottom, he won't be at ease. Once something happens, he can also tell the ins and outs.

"If you don't tell him, he has a way to follow you and find you.

"The water in the rivers and lakes is very deep, and he wants to invite me to eat and drink, just to find out my bottom.

"Since people have already put it forward, it seems that it is not enough to be friendly if you don't accept it, so you can simply say it yourself, say it openly, give him enough face, and there will be a time to meet in the future."

I see! It seems that I really don't know anything about the rivers and lakes, just a tender boy with dark eyes.

If you don't do anything, you won't grow wise.

I saw that the time was more than two o'clock, I was afraid that there would be no shuttle bus back, and it was still early to the hostel, and I suddenly wanted to see Yaya.

I said to the master, "Master, I want to go to the welfare home to see Xiaoya's little child, where do you stay at night?" I'll go back to you. ”

The master said, "Okay! I also went to see a friend, with so much money on him, it is safe to stay in a hotel.

"We can't afford to live in the Iron Mountain Hotel, that's where the old people lived.

"Let's stay in the Jiangcheng Hotel, it's not expensive, it's very safe, give you two hundred yuan, just for use."

"Don't be too late, I'll be waiting for you in the hotel lobby around seven o'clock."

I took a taxi to the children's welfare home.

When the weather was cold, I didn't buy fruit, but bought a few large bags of biscuits, white rabbit toffee, peach crisp and golden dates (a kind of pastry covered with sugar, the size of jujubes, and golden in color).

The doorman was already very familiar with him, and let me in without letting him register.

Dean Chen smiled when he saw me and said, "I'm here to see Chen Siyan again."

I said to Dean Chen, "I want to take Chen Siyan out for a while, more than two hours at most, is that okay?"

Dean Chen hesitated for a moment and said, "Okay! You can't play too late, the kids are kept here, and it's good to be able to go out for a walk. ”

I said, "It's not far away, let's go to Tingtang Park and go boating."

Yaya had already run out of the classroom, shouting as she ran, "Big brother! Big brother! ”

I handed the food to Dean Chen, and Yaya grabbed a handful of White Rabbit toffee from it and put it in her pocket.

I picked up Yaya, scratched her little nose, and said with a smile: "You little gluttonous cat."

I took a taxi to Tingtang Park, and Yaya took a taxi for the first time, and she was very excited.

Tingtang Park is a water park with a large water surface.

The main attractions are the Whip Pavilion, the pavilion is ten meters high, two floors, octagonal and eight pillars, golden and splendid.

The pavilion is painted with four murals of the Jin and Ming Dynasty Zen Emperor's whip escape, which is lifelike.

The introduction in the pavilion said that in the second year of Taining in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, the minister Wang Dun rebelled, and the Emperor Ming of the Jin Dynasty "knew it secretly", but he quietly rode in plain clothes and rode quietly "as far as the lake", secretly inspected Wang Dun's camp, and was found and hunted.

In order to get out, Emperor Ming gave seven horse-wapped horses to a "food seller" on the side of the road.

A moment of chasing the person arrived, seeing that the whip was precious, and he played for a long time, Emperor Ming took the opportunity to escape.

Li Bai's poem "Nanben Shuhuai": "Gu lacks the Seven Treasure Whip, stay and play by the road"

The Whip Pavilion and the Mengri Pavilion were built in the Northern Song Dynasty.

At that time, the ancient trees here are towering to the sky, the Qianmo is vertical and horizontal, the flowing water is murmuring, the village houses are scattered, and the whip pavilion is hidden in it, and it has become a major tourist attraction in Wuhu.

Every spring, it is thousands of purples and thousands of reds, a hundred flowers bloom, like a splendid Jiangnan landscape painting, all the year round visitors are like weaving, the carriages and horses are noisy, lively and extraordinary.

There is a photo booth outside the pavilion, which comes up to solicit business, two yuan for a photo, and a kind of polaroid costs ten yuan.

I said take two shots, and take one for Yaya alone.

I asked Yaya to stand in front of the pavilion and asked her to look at the camera: "Oh, laugh one, yes, just laugh."

I hugged Yaya again and took a group photo, Yaya's arms around my neck, her little face tightly pressed against my face, smiling sweetly.

After a while, both photos came out.

Yaya's two photos are very good, and the smile is innocent and cute.

She stared at the photo very curiously, looking at herself and smiling, and she was reluctant to let go for a long time, she was taking pictures for the first time.

I put the photo in her pocket: "Yaya, you go back and look at it slowly, can I take you to go boating?"

Yaya smiled and nodded.

Passing through the begonia garden, tea garden, vineyard and bonsai garden in Tingtang Park, the fragrance is overflowing, the gravel road is twisting and turning, and the pine and cypress shade are on both sides.

In the middle of the lake is a small pavilion, in which an ancient vine tree is planted, and when you walk out of the small pavilion and cross the small stone bridge, there are various bonsai flowers.

We came to the ticket booth where we chartered the boat, 20 dollars an hour.

It was a small boat on foot, because it was afternoon, there were not many cruises on the water, only a few college students and couples were chasing on the water, laughing and flying.

Yaya giggled and laughed from the moment she got on the boat, we were all wearing life jackets, and she lay on the side of the boat, paddling the water with her little hands, letting the water flow quickly through her little hands.

I said, "Don't play in the water, it's dangerous!"

Yaya had the White Rabbit toffee in her mouth, turned around, and looked at me with big eyes all the time smiling.

I asked, "Is Yaya happy?"

She nodded.

I asked again, "Do you know where your home is?"

She shook her head.

I asked, "Do you know what your birthday is?"

She shook her head.

I said, "Then today is your birthday, okay?" Wait for the big brother to buy you a birthday present, what do you want? ”

Her eyes widened, she nodded in surprise and smiled happily.

We had a great time and went around the lake several times.

returned the boat and came up from the plank road to the island in the middle of the lake.

The island is located in the center of Tingtang, surrounded by water, rockeries, plants and trees, emerald colors want to flow, rippling blue waves, quite a mirage-like drifting feeling.

On the island, there are Liuxiang Pavilion, a long corridor, a fountain pool, a Wangbo Pavilion, and a bell pavilion.

After playing on the island for a while, I saw that Yaya was a little tired from walking, so I hugged her and carried her on my shoulders.

When I came to the gate of the park, there was a shop selling small souvenirs, and Yaya picked out a porcelain whistle for a small bird, and I said, "You can buy a few more and give them to a good friend."

Yaya accompanied her fingers and picked five.

I saw that there was also a counter that sold jade, I picked a zodiac pendant of a little pig, and I asked how to sell it? He said fifty.

I offered 20 and the last 30 was sold.

I said, can you please help me carve a few words?

He said yes, took out an electric carving knife and asked what to engrave?

I wrote: Happy birthday Siyan.

The master's craftsmanship is very good, and the engraved is a calligraphy, clear and delicate.

I hung the jade around Yaya's neck and adjusted the length of the rope.

Said to Yaya: "Today is your birthday, you remember that your birthday will be the third day of the tenth lunar month every year in the future, this is a birthday gift from your eldest brother."

Yaya nodded, tears soaking up in her big eyes, and she cried.
