Chapter 149 One fifty two five hundred yuan

Speaking of self-driving tour, Shen Guanglin and Li Rong were very excited.

This is their first long-distance trip since they have a car, so it must be planned well.

Shen Guanglin bought a map of the capital, a map of Jizhou, and a large map of the whole country.

In the era of no navigation, if there is no map, it is really inconvenient to go out.

It's a little pity that GPS positioning cannot be performed in real time, and I don't know where I am when I walk halfway.

The destination they are going to is a place called Wuliangtai in Shangyi County, Jizhou.

I checked the route, and it was not bad. Although there is no high-speed road, there are national and provincial roads. If you walk all the way, you should be able to have a good travel experience.

The whole journey is more than 300 kilometers. The important places along the way are Yanqing, Huailai, Xiahuayuan, Xuanhua, and then Shangyi. If you just look at the map, it is not far from Mongolia.

It was time to set off, and Shen Guanglin made all kinds of preparations. He was afraid that there would be no gas station, so he prepared two barrels of gasoline.

There are no sleeping bags in the car, but there are large quilts, military coats, and various fire materials.

Charcoal, small hot pot, spices, meat products, plus gifts for the little girl, the co-pilot and the trunk are full.

Hearing that she was taking her home, Zhang Xiaoyao was actually a little unhappy. The six months she was in the capital were her happiest.

After returning home, everything will change.

However, now that his mother is gone, Shen Guanglin has no obligation to continue raising her.

Sending her back is also inevitable.

Ready to buy, ready to pack.

Early the next morning, Shen Guanglin set off with the ignition on. A car is good, unlike a tractor, which needs to be scalded with boiling water in winter to be shaken.

There are many mountains in the capital city, and it is full of mountains when you leave the capital university and head towards Changping.

Their initial route was to go northwest along the direction of the Badaling Great Wall, and then turn southwest after reaching Yanqing.

Shen Guanglin didn't drive fast at all, because the road conditions were really bad.

The road conditions from Beijing to Yanqing are not bad, after all, Badaling is a scenic spot.

The section of the national road in Yanqing is well built, and if you leave Yanqing, you will be in another world.

It may be because they left the jurisdiction of the capital, and everyone didn't pay much attention to roads.

The first destination after leaving the capital is Huailai, and the road conditions are really bad.

From time to time, there was a big pit on the ground. Some places were frozen and muddy, and some places still scraped the chassis.

After all, it's a new car, so it would be a lie to say that I don't feel distressed, but since I've already gone out, let's stick to it all the way.

The snow on the mountain outside the car window has not melted, it is snowy and misty, but inside the car is warm as spring and full of fragrance.

Especially after Li Rong took off her coat, her flat and slender waist seemed to be full of spring.

Shen Guanglin took several glances in the rearview mirror.

The young lady found out and pretended not to care.

Hum, man!

An ordinary knitted sweater can reveal so many sexy symbols, Shen Guanglin feels that he has endured it for a long time this year.

They walked and stopped, and when they arrived at Huailai County, it was getting late.

The main reason is that when Shen Guanglin passes by Tumubao, he must go there to have a look. The euphemistic name is: archaeology.

From the current geographical conditions, it is impossible to see why Ming Yingzong failed back then.

The only trace left at the scene is a section of the earthen city wall and a few stone tablets, which should have been erected there after meritorious deeds, all bearing the names of civil servants and military generals.

In fact, it is very close to Huailai City, only a few miles away, and only 100 kilometers away from the capital.

After the soldiers of the Ming army saw Yexian's army, they were defeated immediately after the first battle. The defeat was very strange.

Of course, next to the current Tumu Fort is the Guanting Reservoir, which was just built in 1954.

At that time, it was not known whether there was a real shortage of water around the Tumubao.

The three of them recuperated overnight in their arms, and continued to set off early the next morning.

After Huailai is Xuanhua, which was the residence of Governor Xuanda during the Ming Dynasty.

Reading thousands of books and traveling thousands of miles is Gu Yanwu's reading creed.

When reading historical novels, Shen Guanglin always felt that Governor Xuan Da was far away in Shanxi, as if it was Datong, Taiyuan, and Chang'an.

In fact, it is not. Xuanhua is really close to the capital, and the gate of the emperor's gate is really not built.

Along the way, the economic development of various parts of Jizhou is indeed not very good, but it is not as bad as Shen Guanglin imagined.

At least, everyone's mental outlook is okay, and most people have high spirits.

This is the greatest hope for economic development.

All the way to the west, in the rough and circling, Wuliangtai in Shangyi County finally arrived.

Wuliangtai is a big village, and it is a central village with basic facilities such as primary schools and kindergartens.

The transportation here is convenient, and the life is also more convenient. The former educated youth landed here.

Lai Hongmei's home is in the Yangshulin Group of Wuliangtai Village. Cars are impassable, so they can only go there on foot.

The car can only be placed by the river. Now there is no village-to-village project, and the cost of road construction in mountainous areas is very high.

A car has entered the village!
It's okay to be idle, and many people from Murakami came to watch and see what they were here for.

Fortunately, this is the Zhanghu area, and I can roughly understand what I said.

The combination of handsome men and beautiful women can really attract people's attention.

Li Rong, in particular, was a kind of beauty they had never seen before.

At that time, Lai Hongmei was a well-known beauty in ten miles and eight towns. Everyone thought Lai Hongmei was beautiful before, but now that she met Li Rong, she realized that the girls in the city were really different.

"The girl in this city is really beautiful. Why isn't her face chapped in such a strong mountain wind?"

"They have creams."

"If such a woman can marry back home, she must be very rare. She will not sleep all night."

"Even if I give you the widow Wang from the village, you can stay awake all night and only sleep during the day, so that you can daydream!"

……

Murakami sent someone to check their letters of introduction, and they were very enthusiastic when they learned that they were noblemen from the capital.

The village director must ask them to sit in the village committee and guide the revolutionary production work in the village.

The kindness is hard to turn down, so I can only go to the village committee to have a look.

However, Shen Guanglin still said that the purpose of their coming was to send Lai Hongmei's daughter Zhang Xiaoyao home, this was their business, and it would be better to finish the business first before discussing it later.

Well, anyway, there is no rush to leave.

In fact, Zhang Xiaoyao already knew how to go home when she arrived at Wuliangtai.

Shen Guanglin took the gifts and items for Zhang Xiaoyao, and the three of them set off for Yang Shulin under the leadership of the village director.

"Uncle Shen, will my mother be at home?"

In fact, Zhang Xiaoyao didn't have any hope in her heart, because Lai Hongmei brought her to the capital to hand her over to her father, otherwise it would be difficult to remarry.

In fact, the village director has already said in private that Lai Hongmei is probably not at home. There are still three people in her family, namely Lai Hongmei's elder brother Lai Hongjun, father Lai Fa, and mother Lai Jin, who were not named.

"Should be at home, after all, Chinese New Year is coming soon." Shen Guanglin answered perfunctorily while looking at the road under his feet.

The mountain road is rugged and the ground is slippery, which is really not easy to walk.

This is a mountain road along the river, and the poplar forest is halfway up the mountain.

This river is called Dongyang River, and it is frozen solid now, so you can go ice skating when you get bored later.

After tossing for a long time, Lai Hongmei's production team and her home arrived.

As expected, Lai Hongmei was not at home.

The village director called the old man Lai out: "The teacher of Beijing University sent your little niece back. Is your daughter at home? Hurry up and entertain the guests."

Old man Lai could only say clumsily: "It's cold outside, come in and enjoy the fire!"

The village director waited for the old man Lai to find his wife, Lai Jin, and claimed the girl before leaving.

Shen Guanglin and the others followed the old man Lai's guidance and entered the house.

It is not an exaggeration to describe this house as bare and four walls.

Not only the Lai old man's family, but their village is also really poor.

Outsiders who don’t know it may think when passing by: This is definitely not a village, but some kind of building, for example, a temporary shack for raising chickens on the mountain.

Because the house is only one meter high above the ground, and the rest is all underground.

After entering the door, walk down the steps, and the rooms are also connected by passages.

Unlike the cave dwellings in northern Shaanxi, the cave dwellings in northern Shaanxi dig a hole in the ground, and then dig the soil around to form a cave dwelling.

Here is also a pit dug on the ground. Maybe because of the soil quality, you need to make the roof yourself, so a part of the building will be built to protrude from the ground, and bricks and tiles will be added to the roof.

Of course, there is also an advantage, that is, it will not be too cold inside.

When there are distinguished guests coming, the way to entertain them is to kill chickens.

Shen Guanglin was also polite, and took out the meat he brought, "Let's make some together, the child didn't eat well all the way."

"Where is Lai Hongmei, hasn't she come back yet?" Shen Guanglin took a sip of his tea, which was bitter unknown aged green tea.
"No, I went to Yangcheng, and I haven't been back. The family originally arranged for her to change relatives, but she didn't agree. She took the money and came back to marry the boss, and then left. Are you here to arrest her?"

"I really didn't arrest her. I am Zhang Nan's teacher. Zhang Nan refused to have this child, and her mother was not here. I thought she was pitiful, so I sent her here."

"This bastard!" Old man Lai cursed, apparently very dissatisfied with Zhang Nan, an educated youth who returned to the city.

"Uncle Lai, don't you have a son, why haven't you seen him?"

"The family is separated. He lives by himself. He has been picking a wife for the past few days. He has something to do tonight. Let him greet you tomorrow."

"What is picking a wife?"

Shen Guanglin didn't understand, it's a good custom to go on a group blind date, and to go at night.

Shen Guanglin is eager to try it, and really wants to experience it.

Old man Lai looked at Li Rong, but didn't answer.

Mrs. Lai Jin went to cook, and Li Rong went to tidy up the room, and then continued the topic just now.

"That is, a group of foreign daughters-in-law will come over in the middle of the night, and the ones who are selected can stay with the money. Your daughter-in-law is so beautiful, so you don't need to choose."

Alright, let's change the subject: "How much do you pay for the bride price here?"

"Twenty dollars."
