Several times in dreams

Chapter 155
After getting off the train, it took half an hour in the car, bumpy all the way, and finally returned to the holy city.

For 22 years, Meng Wanying once again stood on the land of her hometown, looking at the orderly buildings and wide roads, her hometown has undergone tremendous changes.

What remains unchanged is the nine ridges and double eaves of the Confucian Temple, the carved beams and painted buildings, and the carved dragon stone pillars in front of the temple, which are still flying and majestic.

The inscriptions of past dynasties in front of the hall, after hundreds of years of ups and downs, still stand tall, with strong characters.

The former Xinyi Street has been built into a brand new commercial street, and the prosperity remains unchanged. The Xiangfu Street is bustling with people, and various tour groups are intertwined among the crowd. The tour guides carry small speakers and explain the holy The city's traditional culture and long history make tourists linger and forget to return.

Foreigners with various skin colors, blue eyes, yellow hair, black curly hair and dark skin, Meng Wanying has seen Dr. Anthony decades ago, it is not unusual, Zhang Xueqing and Zhang Xiangxiang are the first time to see foreigners, extremely surprised , pointing and pointing.

Yuhui couldn't help laughing, "Girls, don't point and point at others, it's impolite. These international friends are all visiting our country. Now that our country is strong, there will be more and more foreigners in the future." Those who come to our country may even come to China to settle down.”

"I've only seen it in textbooks. This is the first time I've seen a real foreigner. Grandma, am I a little too new to the world?" Zhang Xueqing also felt that her behavior just now was a bit inappropriate, and laughed at herself.

"Grandma, I want to eat that..." Zhang Xiangxiang pointed to the boiled goose eggs in the basket on the soda stand outside the gate of the Confucian Temple.

"Hungry, those are salted goose eggs, which are the characteristics of our holy city. Goose eggs marinated with plant ash, spices, white wine, and salt. full!"

"Five goose eggs! Another five bottles of soda!" Zhang Chunshan said cheerfully.

"Hey! That's good!" Tang Pozi moved quickly, opened the soda with a "bang bang bang", put it on the table, picked up five freshly boiled goose eggs, and put them in a small straw basket, "Daughter! Sit down quickly Let's eat!" After finishing speaking, he handed Zhang Xiangxiang a bottle of soda.

"Are you here to travel?" Mrs. Tang looked at the old and young family. Meng Wanying was sitting on the horseshoe helping Zhang Xiangxiang peel the goose eggs. Zhang Chunshan was also hungry and was eating goose eggs. "It's delicious!" Zhang Xueqing praised Can't stop talking.

"We came back to visit relatives!" Yu Hui took a sip of soda while peeling the goose eggs, "I haven't been back for more than 20 years! This goose egg still has the familiar old taste!"

"That's right! It's good to be your hometown anytime! Which family do you belong to? Why didn't I recognize it?" Mrs. Tang looked at them suspiciously.

"The Chen family in Xiguan!" Yu Hui said lightly.

"Chen Wenjing's family? He said his relatives are coming, could it be..." Mrs. Tang was stunned.

"Hey! Zheng Xizi! Your relatives are here!" Mrs. Tang shouted behind her.

In the shade of the trees in the parking lot, Zheng Xizi just fell asleep for a while. Yesterday there was a university tour group. Several big cars were parked in the parking lot. So excited that she got up early, killed chickens and stewed meat, which made her lose energy all day.

There are more and more people traveling during the summer vacation, and Chen Wenjing and his wife are so busy that they have to take advantage of the peak tourist season to earn more money. As a result, there is very little time for rest.

"Mrs. Tang, I just fell asleep, what are you talking about?" Zheng Xizi rubbed his eyes, pulled his shoes and stood up, looking this way.

"Second aunt!" Yu Hui was the first to react, and then Meng Wanying also stood up and looked back.

Zheng Xizi is still so sloppy, her clothes haven't been changed for at least half a month, her gray hair is messed up on her head like a mess, her unattractive face has never been washed, and she is exposed to the sun every day , dark cheeks.

"Xizi!" Meng Wanying said tremblingly.

Zheng Xizi looked suspiciously at the old lady opposite, with black cotton trousers, a moon-white slanted shirt, and white hair all over her head. , but a pair of big eyes are piercing.

"Sister-in-law?" Zheng Xizi called out tentatively.

"Sister-in-law! Oh, it's really you, sister-in-law! Wenjing went to the station to pick you up, you damn ghost! Now I can't see people clearly because of my old eyesight, did you go to the two-way?"

Zheng Xizi raised his voice and started bluffing.

"Oh, Xizi! You are old too!" Meng Wanying was deeply moved!

"Isn't it? We're all old! If Mrs. Tang didn't call me, I wouldn't dare to recognize you. Why is your hair all white?"

The two sisters-in-law and sisters-in-law sat on the mat holding hands, and started chatting as if no one else was there. Yuhui and Zhang Chunshan couldn't get in the way, until they saw Wen Jing hurried over with a plantain fan.

"Mrs. Tang! Where's my daughter-in-law? Why didn't you pick me up when I went to pick him up? I promised to come today."

"Second uncle!" Yu Hui recognized her second uncle at a glance. Although Wen Jing also had a dimpled face and gray hair, his figure and facial features were exactly the same as those of 20 years ago, so he could be recognized at a glance.

"Ah?" Wen Jing looked at the chubby woman in her 30s, unable to react for a while.

"Second Uncle! Don't you recognize me? I'm Yuhui!" Yuhui looked at Wenjing with a smile.

"My God! I'm still full of bus stations, looking for you like you used to be when you were a child, you say I'm so brainy! I haven't seen you for more than 20 years, and you have grown into an adult!"

"Look at my daughter, she's already the age when I left! Ruirui! Shun Shun! Call me the second grandpa!"

"Second grandpa!" The two children were very polite.

"Good! Good! That's great!" Wen Jing smiled all over his face, and suddenly he saw two old ladies smiling at him on the horse tie on the ground next to him.

One is his daughter-in-law, Zheng Xizi, and the other is an old lady with all white hair, "Big... sister-in-law?" Wen Jing was stunned.

"Wen Jing, you have changed little. Although you have more wrinkles, you really haven't changed much."

"Sister-in-law! You must have suffered a lot these years, and your hair is all white."

"Hey, I just worry about my life! It should be useless after I'm over 60!" Meng Wanying smiled heartily.

"Quick! Go home and have a rest! Xizi, you stay here and watch first! I'll ask Xuejun to bring you food later!"

Wen Jing led Yuhui's family back home quickly, the meal was already cooked, and they were all put in the sarong he made, so as to save the flies from being bitten.

Xuewu asked for leave and came back to accompany her sister's family. Kong Fanmei also came with Xiaofeng. Xiaofeng and Shunshun were about the same age. The two little guys had a great time playing together.

"Sister-in-law, Liang Shuang came back last year! I came to see you!" During the dinner, Wen Jing suddenly remembered something.
