Expensive marriage: The concubine is begging for peace again today

Chapter 395
Modern travel is much faster and more convenient than ancient times.

In the evening of that day, a group of them checked into a homestay in Jixi.

The homestay is decorated in an antique style and stands facing the street.

The courtyard planted with various flowers has a long and ancient charm. There is a small and exquisite stone pond against the wall. Fish swim in the water, making circles and ripples.

"Swallow, how about I build such a small courtyard on the outskirts of City B?" Jiang Changning stood in this quaint courtyard, feeling like he was back in Daqin.

"Don't be too imaginative." Li Yan poured cold water on her, "With your little savings, you can probably buy a living room-sized land in the suburbs of City B. If you want to buy a yard, dream about it."

Jiang Changning said awkwardly, "I'll rent the boss."

"No, you live in the suburbs, how can I play with you?" Li Yan dragged her into the lobby of the hotel.

The spacious hall is decorated in Chinese style all made of wood, with calm colors, elegant and symmetrical style, and the unique palace lanterns are exquisite and clear. Li Yan praised the assistant who booked the homestay, "This place is really good."

"It's a pity that you have something to do, so you can't stay for a few more days." Jiang Changning poured cold water back.

"Hmph, I can take a vacation."

The B&Bs are all rooms with private bathrooms and bathrooms, with complete infrastructure, transparent lighting, retro window lattices with clear glass, and you can see the green mountains in the distance.

The next day, Li Yan and her colleagues went to work together, while Jiang Changning traveled around Jixi County according to the map on his phone.

Jixi County is a national historical and cultural city and a national cultural and ecological protection zone. It was called Huayang Town in the Han Dynasty.
With beautiful scenery and rich cultural heritage, it is known as the source of harmony, a famous cultural city, the hometown of celebrities, and the hometown of Anhui cuisine. It is a good place worth visiting.

Carrying the snacks he bought, Jiang Changning walked back, passing by a private house, and saw an old woman embroidering at the door.

At her feet was a bamboo embroidered rug, and inside the rug were several handkerchiefs, all of which were embroidered.

Jiang Changning was stunned when he saw it, while the old lady enthusiastically solicited business, "Girl, this is authentic Hui embroidery, just take a look if you like it."

"Okay." Jiang Changning squatted down to choose.

She immediately picked out a veil embroidered with rose flowers. The dark green branches and leaves were intertwined with vines, making the rose flowers unparalleled in beauty.

The imitation embroidery, photo and other realistic artistic effects of Hui embroidery are famous all over the world.

The grandma even embroidered tiny flower thorns on it, making the roses not only beautiful and vivid, but also showing a three-dimensional effect.

"Grandma, how much is this?" Jiang Changning bit his lower lip, "How much?"

The old lady stretched out three fingers, "30 yuan."

This price sounds like a real price. Moreover, Jiang Changning took a fancy to this square handkerchief at a glance. Money is hard to buy, so he didn't bargain with her, and used his mobile phone to scan the QR code to pay.

Back at the homestay, before Li Yan came back, Jiang Changning was surfing the Internet in the room, watching videos.

Accidentally saw a live broadcast, a woman's excited voice said, "I met a super handsome handsome guy today."

The handsome guy in the video is none other than He Lianyu that Jiang Changning met in the car.

He wore a crisp white shirt and black suit trousers, giving off a cool and ascetic look.

Surrounded by many people, I am walking forward.

The woman followed him and took pictures, "This handsome guy is not a celebrity. I heard people call him Mr. He, Mr. He. He should be the president of a big company."

He Lianyu got into the car and drove away. The woman said regretfully, "He is so handsome, even more handsome than those celebrities. It would be great if he entered the entertainment circle."

"Okay, the handsome guy has nothing to look at, I'll take you to continue exploring the store." The woman walked into a noodle shop.

Jiang Changning came out of this live broadcast room and continued to watch other videos.

Two days later, Li Yan finished her official duties, "Tomorrow we will go to Huihang Ancient Road."

At five o'clock in the morning the next day, the online car-hailing car came to pick them up.

At five o'clock in summer, the sky is already very bright.

In a small shop next to the ancient road, I ate a plate of Huizhou fried noodles for breakfast.

After filling his stomach and buying tickets, Li Yan looked at the ancient road and waved vigorously, "Let's go!"

The ancient road is more than one meter wide, with twists and turns of dragons and snakes, winding among the high mountains. The years have left numerous traces on the stone slabs, and the mottled moss tells the scenery of thousands of years ago.

Just as Jiang Changning was recalling the past through this ancient road, someone suddenly hummed: "I didn't cultivate in my previous life, I was born in Huizhou, I was thirteen or fourteen years old, and I threw it away."

The simple melody reverberates in this ancient road, as if taking people through time and space, seeing the sad past of Huizhou people who had to leave their hometown and go out to apprentice when they were ten years old.

"Leaving the hometown and walking the ancient road, the lights are shining and returning to the lost. The wind and dust are passing by, the sound and the book are perfect, when will I return home in my dream." Jiang Changning made up a poem casually.

"Yo yo yo, our little Ning'er is promising, and he speaks well." Li Yan teased her.

Jiang Changning gave her a sideways glance, "Let's go."

Along the way, there are steep mountains, foggy seas and clouds, and gurgling streams, from Jixi to Yuchuan to Yankou Pavilion, and then to Mopanshi.

According to legend, "Mopanshi" is actually called "Mengpanshi". According to records: In the Southern Song Dynasty, Hu Danye, a native of Dashimen in Jixi, dreamed that there was a pile of rocks in the Xiaoyao River on the Huihang Ancient Road.

Seeing it the next day, it really did. He couldn't figure it out, and then he followed the ancient road to find the meaning of the dream. Suddenly, the ancient road in front of him was interrupted, and he suddenly realized it.

Could it be that God entrusted him with a dream to repair this section of road, so he immediately set about raising money to dig and build this dangerous ancient road, so that the ancient road can run through from top to bottom.

"Come on, Xiao Ning write another poem."

"Fuck you, you just know how to tease me." Jiang Changning quickly passed her and walked forward.

"Wait for me." Li Yan hurriedly chased after her.

After passing Mopanshi, you will arrive at the first pass in the south of the Yangtze River.

There is a Shi Tea Pavilion at Guanjiao, with four large characters in Wei style "Jiangsu and Zhejiang" written on the gate of the pavilion. Some people sell water and some snacks here.

"How much is this corn?" Li Yan looked at the yellow corn, and her eyes were greedy.

"Five yuan a piece."

"How much is a catty of corn in the supermarket?" Li Yan turned around and asked everyone.

"The last time I bought it was one piece per catty."

Li Yan bargained with the hawker, "Cheaper."

"Small business, you can't make money." The peddler is reluctant to lower the price.

Li Yan used the eloquence she practiced in court to persuade the hawker, and finally bought six sticks for 20 yuan.

Several people rested in the pavilion, drank water, ate the corn, came out of the pavilion, and climbed up the stairs.

In the stone wall of Beiyan, crosspieces were cut out manually, and granite slabs about two meters long were embedded to form a plank road.

The stone stack is like a ladder, stretching upwards, straight into the depths of the white clouds.At the top of the ladder, there is a hole in the sky, which is the first pass in the south of the Yangtze River.

The closed gate is composed of four large stone strips horizontally framed by natural rocks. The lintel is engraved with "the first pass in the south of the Yangtze River" on the west and "Huihang Suokey" in regular script on the east.

Although it has been eroded by wind and rain, it is still vivid.
