Chapter 46
When Li Te came home, he was very excited. He immediately called his mother:
"Mom, it's all agreed, Shuxia agreed, and we'll go back to our hometown the day after tomorrow!"

"Okay, okay, don't worry, Tongtong, I won't miss your business!"

Then the two of them chatted about other household matters, and then hung up the phone.

After calling his mother, Li Te thought he would go on a long-distance run the day after tomorrow, so he decided to take some time to take care of the car tomorrow. He thought that there would be no room for one car, so he called Yao Ting again and told her to do the same. Driving her own car, Yao Ting listened and replied with a smile:

"Don't worry, my car was maintained a while ago, so it won't delay things."

Wang Xiaoke knew that her mother promised to go to Uncle Li Te’s hometown to celebrate the New Year this year, she was very excited, holding a tablet computer alone, searching for interesting places and historical allusions about Uncle Li Te’s hometown.

"Ruyang is located in the Funiu Mountains. The Fengshan Mountain is majestic, the Ru River is magnificent, the mountains are undulating, and the scenery is beautiful. In addition to the cultural accumulation of the past dynasties, it has rich natural and cultural landscapes. It has a long history and culture. It has both Yangshao Culture and Longshan Culture. There are 21 scenic spots and historic sites such as Dukang Winemaking Site, Dukang Temple, Guigu Hometown, Wei Ming Emperor Mausoleum, and Yunmeng Mountain Ancient Military Academy Site. Dukang, the nose of ancient grain and wine brewing in China, has been honored as the "wine fairy" by successive emperors , that is, in Dukang Village, Ruyang, the first brewing method of "秫酒" was established, thus laying the foundation for Chinese liquor brewing. During the Warring States period, Guiguzi, a man of Chu, who was worshiped by Taoists, once lived in seclusion in Yunmeng Mountain, Chengguan, Ruyang. Gather talents to teach. Around the above-mentioned scenic spots and historic sites, three major tourist attractions, including Dukang Xianzhuang, Yunmeng Mountain, and Xianshan Mountain, have been initially built. Among them, Dukangxian is restored and constructed in Dukang Village, the birthplace of Chinese rice wine and the hometown of Dukang, the originator of wine making.

Its popular scenic spots include Ruyang Guanyin Temple, Fengxue Temple, Dukang Xianzhuang, Yuma Pinghu Scenic Area, Tieding Mountain Scenic Area, Xitai Mountain, China Long Yin and so on."

Wang Xiaoke was not very interested in the introduction of Ruyang’s scenic spots. Why are there no dinosaurs? She continued to type “Ruyang dinosaurs” on the Internet, and the tablet immediately displayed:

"Ruyang Dinosaur Theme Park is located in Hongling Village, Liudian Township, Ruyang County. After the first dinosaur fossil was discovered in Shaping Village in March 2006, more than 3 dinosaur fossil sites were successively discovered in Ruyang County. Especially the new discovery The Ruyang Yellow River Dragon is the largest dinosaur in Asia, and the giant Ruyangosaurus is the largest dinosaur in the world. In January 130, Ruyang County was awarded the title of "Hometown of Dinosaurs in China" by the Chinese Academy of Geological Sciences. Ruyang Dinosaur Theme Park is based on the Cretaceous Dinosaur-themed, integrating science popularization, entertainment, and leisure, plans to build dinosaur amusement parks, ruins museums, museums, service centers and other projects. Among them, the main project of the dinosaur ruins museum was completed in August 2009. The dinosaur ruins museum is based on the geology of dinosaur fossils. The park is featured, and the architectural concept is taken from the largest "Ruyang Yellow River Dragon" in Asia. Based on its shape, a three-dimensional dragon skeleton is made. The main project of the museum has invested more than 1 million yuan, with a total construction area of ​​2010 square meters. The maximum span of the building is 8 meters, the building height is 1000 meters, and the single-story steel structure. Asia's largest "Ruyang Yellow River Dragon" (more than 3100 meters in length) and the world's largest "Giant Ruyang Dragon" (body length more than 51 meters long) entered the Dinosaur Site Museum.”

Wang Xiaoke read each word carefully, and couldn't hide his excitement in his heart, as if he had flown to Ruyang and had a close contact with the world's largest dinosaur.

Ding Xiang was not idle either, she said to Ren Ziyu:
"Old man, let's meet Li Te's parents for the first time, what gifts should we bring?"

"It's been prepared a long time ago. I wrote a picture for them and it's been framed." Ren Ziyu replied confidently.

"Then what should I bring for Li Te's mother?" Ding Xiang then asked.

"What about this, you should discuss it with Shuxia." Ren Ziyu replied embarrassedly.

Ding Xiang knew that he had discussed it with the old man, but he had no idea, so he went to discuss it with his daughter. After discussing for a long time, they finally decided to buy a massage table for Li Te's mother.

The next day, Ren Ziyu took his grandson, Queen Xiao Ke, with the couplets he had written in advance, first to Yao Ting's house to help her paste the couplets, then to Li Te's house, and Li Te happened to be at home , so after posting the Spring Festival couplets together, Li Te sent her father and father home again. The family discussed the specific matters of going back to their hometown tomorrow for the New Year. Ren Ziyu said:
"Ruyang is not too far from the provincial capital, about 200 kilometers away."

"Yes, the transportation is convenient now. There are several highways to Ruyang, and it takes more than three hours to drive." Li Te replied with a smile.

"Since I'm going to your house for the New Year, I'll bring back the New Year's goods from several of our New Year's units. After a long time, if you don't eat it, it won't be fresh. Anyway, we have a car when we go back to your hometown this time." Ding Xiang said with a smile.

"Listen to Auntie." Li Te replied with a smile.

"Li Te, your hometown is in a mountainous area, isn't it very cold?" Yao Ting asked.

"This, it is indeed much colder than here, just bring more thick clothes!" Li Te replied with a smile.

"By the way, Keke, don't forget to bring your schoolbag and remember to do your homework for the winter vacation." Ren Shuxia reminded Wang Xiaoke.

"Mom, my winter vacation homework is basically done, and there are only a few essays left. This time I went to Uncle Li Te's house. Isn't there some material for writing essays?" Wang Xiaoke said pouted.

Ren Shuxia wanted to say something, but Li Te persuaded him with a smile:

"This Spring Festival, let Keke relax and have fun."

"Uncle Li Te is better!" Wang Xiaoke replied with a smile.

"This girl!" Ren Shuxia glanced at her happy daughter and stopped talking.

"Auntie, it's still a bit cold today, and we don't need to go back so early. I think we'll have lunch tomorrow, and it's not too late to leave."

"Well, it's not very good, it's not suitable to meet your parents for the first time in the afternoon." Ren Ziyu asked with a smile.

"It's okay uncle, my family doesn't pay much attention to these things, besides, I have already made an agreement with my parents." Li Te said.

At this time Yao Ting said:

"When you leave, don't forget to bring a power bank. It's my first time going to Ruyang, so don't lose it, it's not good!"

"Yao Ting's reminder is good, but there are navigations now, so it should be fine." Li Te said with a smile.

As soon as Yao Ting heard the navigation, she smiled and replied:

"I don't dare to believe in navigation, I only believe in your living map."

In the end, the big guys thought about all the details on the way home again, and felt that there was nothing left to forget, so Li Te said goodbye and went home.
