Siheyuan, a comfortable life under Zhengyang Gate

The chief made buns with big willow noodles and wanted to eat donkey meat to protect the restaurant.

Today is October 18th, the third day of a self-driving autumn trip for Yang Yukun and his party from the Imperial Capital.

For breakfast that day, they ate chief steamed buns, willow noodles and donkey meat, and also bought some paozi cakes.

"Dad, mom, I'm full, uncle, aunt...you guys eat slowly."

"A mouthful of oil, wipe your mouth."

"whee……."

"I'm full too."

"Hiccup..., I'm full too."

"Little mosquito, finish the remaining half of your buns, don't let it go to waste, you know."

"Ok."

"Today is the 18th, and tomorrow is the Double Ninth Festival, September 9th. Let's take a day off in Tai'an and climb Mount Tai."

Starting early in the morning, we can arrive in Tai'an at noon today. Yang Yukun proposed to rest in Tai'an for a day.

After all, I’m on the road every day and it’s quite tiring. It’s necessary to take a day off to recuperate.

Tomorrow happens to be the annual Double Ninth Festival. On the Double Ninth Festival, you can go up Mount Tai and look far into the distance, and wait for the morning of the 20th before continuing on your way.

"can."

"You really should take a good rest and change your clothes."

"You are the leader of our team, and all the brothers will listen to you."

Yang Yukun said that he would rest for a day in Tai'an, and Han Chunming and others agreed.

It's a good opportunity to take a break, change clothes, and recuperate. After all, driving for such a long time every day and sitting in the car for such a long time are quite tiring.

"Are you all full?"

"full."

"Come on, let's go shopping first and then set off for Tai'an."

Xu Jingping said: "Xiao Kun, that paozi cake tastes good. Let's buy some and take it with us on the road."

"Row."

I bought some paozi cakes, a braised chicken for each of the four families, and some local golden jujubes.

Yesterday I bought some local golden jujubes in Cangzhou, and today I bought local golden jujubes in Dezhou. When I get back to Yangcheng, I will give some to my eldest sister, brother-in-law and Wang Aiguo.

"Keep going, target Tai'an."

After buying the things, the convoy continued to set off. This time Mao Mao Map took the lead in clearing the way, and Yang Huajian came from behind.

When passing through Quancheng, the motorcade did not stop. After passing Pingyin, it went straight into Tai'an.

Since they decided to climb Mount Tai during the Double Ninth Festival, after entering Tai'an, Yang Yukun and his party went straight to the area where Mount Tai is located.

At noon, the group found a hotel to stay near Mount Tai.

"Sanqiuye Hotel, Uncle Cai and Auntie have brought their business to Mount Tai."

"Xiaokun, Jingping, how many San Qiuye hotels have Uncle Cai and Aunt Cai opened?"

"We really don't know that yet."

The hotel that Yang Yukun and his party were looking for had the signboard of Sanqiuye Hotel.

Xu Jingping just called her parents to confirm that this hotel is their Sanqiuye Hotel branch.

Since the mother-in-law opened the first Sanqiuye Hotel at the Imperial Railway Station in the spring of 1982, the Sanqiuye Hotel has been expanding over the years.

Yang Yukun and Xu Jingping knew that there were branches of Sanqiuye Hotel in Jinmen and Yanzhao, but they didn't expect that there were also branches in Qilu.

Yang Yukun and Xu Jingping didn't pay too much attention to their father-in-law and mother-in-law's company. After all, they were business owners who could even ignore their own company.

Therefore, Yang Yukun and Xu Jingping are not very clear about how many branches the father-in-law's mother-in-law's Sanqiuye Hotel has opened now. "Come on, let's go get something to eat first."

"Dude, you're not hungry at all right now."

"I don't feel very hungry either."

"Why don't you just skip this meal and eat it later in the evening?"

"We are not hungry, but the children are. Let's eat something casually first, and then have a big meal in the evening."

When I set off from Texas in the morning, I bought a lot of things to eat on the road.

So at this moment, Yang Yukun and others didn't feel very hungry.

Several children said they were hungry. They didn't have to eat, but they couldn't let the children go hungry.

After leaving the Sanqiuye Hotel, the group found a noodle shop and had a casual bowl of noodles.

"Brothers and sisters, do you want to watch the sunrise or sunset on Mount Tai?"

Yang Yukun asked after coming out of the noodle shop.

Xu Jingping was the first to say: "Of course, watch the sunrise. It is said that the sunrise on Mount Tai is very beautiful."

"In this season, the sunrise on Mount Tai is around six o'clock. If we want to see the sunrise, we have to climb to the top before six o'clock. It is best to set off at twelve o'clock in the morning."

"So early?" Mao Tutu said: "It's just Mount Tai. It doesn't look high at all. How long does it take to climb up?"

"It doesn't look high, but the distance we walked is not a straight line. If we want to reach the top, we have to walk down more than nine kilometers."

"so far?"

"Yes, even if you walk normally, it takes about two hours to cover nine kilometers, let alone climb the mountain. So if you want to watch the sunrise on the top of Mount Tai, you must set aside enough time."

For those with good physical fitness, it can take three to five hours to reach the summit. For those with poor physical fitness, it may take seven or eight hours. For those with poor physical fitness and willpower, it is estimated that they can only look at the mountain and sigh.

If he were alone, Yang Yukun was confident that he could reach the summit within an hour.

But they were traveling in a group this time, so they had to take into account the physical fitness of others, not to mention they were taking their children with them.

The children couldn't climb up with their physical strength, so they had to carry the little ones on their backs.

If you want to watch the sunrise from the top of the mountain, it is best to set out before twelve o'clock tonight, leaving enough time to avoid missing the sunrise.

"I didn't expect that just Mount Taishan, which doesn't look very high, would have to go so far to climb up. I must have underestimated it."

Yang Huajian smiled and said: "The map, if you can't see Mount Tai, I'm talking about you."

"Go, go, go... Lao Yang, you are so blind that you don't see Mount Tai."

Han Chunming said: "Then let's set off at twelve o'clock tonight?"

Mao Tutu smiled and said: "Chunming, can you climb up? Don't be halfway up and unable to climb."

"Nonsense, my brother's physical fitness must be better than yours. You should still worry about whether you can climb up."

"How about we make a bet, whoever climbs up behind will get a treat tomorrow."

"Then you're done, get ready for a treat."

In terms of physical fitness, Han Chunming is still relatively confident in defeating Mao Tutu.

Although as his business grows bigger and bigger, he has more and more social activities, he is getting older day by day, and his physical fitness is definitely not as good as it was a few years ago, but he is full of confidence to win the Mao map.

Yang Huajian said: "Where are we going now?"

"Go back to the hotel and rest. We have to leave in the early morning. If you don't rest well, you won't have the energy to climb up."

in the afternoon.

Yang Yukun and his party didn't go there and went directly back to Sanqiuye Hotel.

After dinner, continue back to the hotel to recharge.

Before twelve o'clock in the evening, the four families set off from the San Qiuye Hotel. Just after twelve o'clock, they officially started their climbing trip, starting from Dai Temple and starting to climb up. (End of chapter)
