Chapter 161 To Zhoucheng Village
Chapter 161 To Zhoucheng Village
The family ate breakfast while browsing the market. Mei Yulan, Lin's mother and Lin Xi bought some special gadgets, snacks and flowers.
There was a flower stall selling some flower seeds, not many, but Lin Xi bought them all for him.
After visiting the morning market, it was still early, so the family wandered through the streets and alleys of Caicun to explore the local customs.
At noon, we found a small restaurant owned by locals to eat. It tasted pretty good.
After eating, they drove away from Caicun and continued walking forward.
On the way, we passed a place called Gusheng Village, which is a very ancient village. The ancient Bai folk houses with three squares and one screen wall are antique, simple and elegant, one after another, winding on both sides of the stream and road. There is a "Fengming Bridge" in the village, which has a history of 500 years.
The family was not in a hurry and got out of the car for a walk. But the village is not big, so we can finish visiting it quickly.
Then they went to Xizhou Ancient Town, where they visited the Yan Family Courtyard. This is a deep house compound with multiple courtyards connected together. It has the Bai architectural style of "three squares, one screen wall, four in five patios", and also incorporates the unique "Western style". Although it has been washed by the years, the red vermilion doors and windows and the white marble-carved fence still retain their original splendor.
I also bought a lot of Xizhou cakes, which were so delicious that Ye Xi and Xueyin couldn’t stop eating them. There are two flavors: sweet and salty. The sweet one is made with rose honey, and the salty one is made with lean meat and eggs.
They did not choose to stay in Xizhou Ancient Town, but went to Zhoucheng Village.
By the time they arrived at Zhoucheng Village, it was already past six in the afternoon. They had been playing on the road all day today, and the two elders and Mother Lin were a little tired. Therefore, as soon as they arrived in Zhoucheng Village, they went straight to the hotel they booked and had dinner delivered to their room.
After dinner, the family sat in the two elders' room and played cards, and the loser had to put a note on them.
Ye Xi had never played before, and soon he had three stickers on his face.
Ye Xi rolled up his sleeves, "I don't believe it anymore. I can't win?"
What they played was the simplest way of drawing pairs, and then they basically stayed at the night table until the end and lost, and occasionally other people.
Lin Xi saw Ye Xi's unconvinced look and said, "Uncle, you are not very lucky tonight."
Ye Xi was a little addicted, "Come again!"
They played a few more games, but they still lost more than they won.
Han Chengde saw that Ye Xi's face was covered with notes and said, "How about we stop here today."
At this time, Mother Lin and Lin Xi had three stickers, Han Chengde had two stickers, Mei Yulan had one sticker, and Ye Xi had eight stickers!
Ye Xi saw that the two elders were indeed quite tired, so he reluctantly went back to the room. When he arrived at the door of the room, he told Lin Xi to come back tomorrow.
Haha, Uncle Master is aroused to win or lose.
Back in the room, Lin Xi took out the computer as usual and continued to program, while Xue Yin was playing by herself. Lin Xi didn't dare to let it stay with Ye Xi at night, otherwise she didn't know what kind of things the two strange beasts could do.
The system still kept track of the time and reminded her when the time was up.
Lin Xi sighed, "Huh~"
Then I packed my things and went to bed.
The next day, the family woke up from sleep. Lin Xi opened her eyes slightly, still a little unconscious, and murmured: "Tiantian, I want to sign in."
"Ding, on the 83rd day of signing in, you will be rewarded with master-level chess skills."
Lin Xi picked up the jade slips while still lying on the bed and absorbed them. As she absorbed more and more, her mind gradually became clearer.
Lin Xi got up as soon as she turned over, and Xueyin also woke up. She touched the little guy's head and said, "Good morning, little guy."
Xueyin nuzzled Lin Xi, and grandma's voice came, "Master, morning."
It was so cute. Lin Xi couldn't help but pick up Xue Yin and rub it for a while. The little guy exposed his belly comfortably.
After playing enough, Lin Xi put the little one down to wash up. As soon as Lin Xi walked into the bathroom, Xueyin felt a chill on her body. The hair on Xueyin's body suddenly exploded, and a vigilant whisper of "Ouch~" came from her mouth.
Lin Xi heard the sound and walked out of the bathroom and saw Xue Yin's alert look, "What's wrong?"
As soon as Lin Xi came out, Xueyin felt that the chill disappeared, and it was stunned. "It seemed to be strange just now, but now it's gone."
After hearing this, Lin Xi looked around the room and found nothing strange, "Do you feel wrong?"
Xueyin said firmly: "I won't feel wrong."
It was actually wondering if the chill just now was the mysterious force from before. However, that power had no intention of harming him before. However, the chill just now made it feel in danger, so it was not sure.
Lin Xi felt that the little guy seemed absent-minded and patted Xueyin's head, "Don't think about it. I'll ask my uncle to come and take a look later."
The little guy nodded. Lin Xi quickly packed up and went to find the night table with the little guy in his arms.
After hearing this, Ye Xi immediately went to Lin Xi's room to check. After looking around, he found nothing unusual.
Xueyin was also confused. Did she really feel wrong?
Secretly, the system glanced at Ye Xi indifferently, and then looked at Xueyin disdainfully: Humph, let a little dwarf like you go.
Finding nothing unusual, they went out to look for Mother Lin and the others. Xueyin was still a little confused. However, after a while I started playing and forgot about it.
The family had breakfast at the hotel, bought some food, and drove to Butterfly Spring as agreed upon yesterday.
When they arrived, many people were already queuing to get in, and they soon entered the scenic spot.
Butterfly Spring has three unique features, namely "spring, butterfly and tree".
The first is "spring". The water of Butterfly Spring is formed from the snow of Cangshan Mountain. The snow water soaks out from the sand layer in the rock crevices, and the water quality is particularly clear.
Next is "Butterfly". There are many kinds of butterflies in Butterfly Spring. From March to May every spring, butterflies can be as big as a palm and as small as bees. They hang in colorful clusters on the albizia trees beside the spring. But they came at the wrong time, and there were not many butterflies.
Finally there are trees. They saw a vigorous ancient nightclub tree at the northwest corner of the spring pool. This tree was known as the butterfly tree by the locals. The branches and leaves of the tree are whirling, and the shade of the tree covers the sky and the sun, stretching across the spring.
It is said that every time in late spring or early summer, the ancient trees bloom, shaped like colorful butterflies, and exude a fragrance that attracts butterflies. At that time, butterflies fly in groups, and each one "with hooked legs and whiskers" hangs from the branches to the spring surface. Thousands of butterfly strings are formed, like colorful ribbons.
Mother Lin sighed: "It seems we came at the wrong time."
Lin Xi said: "Mom, if you want to see it, we can come again when we wait for the butterfly season."
