"The singer didn't come today." Shen Jie originally looked away, then turned to look at me, fearing that I would be disappointed, and said softly with a little regret in his tone.
"It's probably because it's too hot." The last time I passed by here, I was moved by the singing. This time I came here specially, but it wasn't. I couldn't help feeling a little disappointed.
"Listen~"
As we got closer, we vaguely heard singing.
Unconsciously, our pace quickened.
On the right is the Shuiyun Temple, which is well-known at home and abroad. Many foreigners and overseas Chinese come here to pay homage and pray for the blessings of the Bodhisattva.
The decoration is very characteristic of Daxia. Because it is located in the city center, many wealthy people come here to worship. There is constant incense in front of the temple all year round, and a prayer tree is hung with everyone's best wishes.
Between Shuiyun Temple and the Singer is a lively road, where people and traffic are coming and going almost all the time. Perhaps the young street performers chose this Feng Shui treasure because of this.
As I got closer, the melodious singing sounded clearer to my ears.
Today he is probably a relatively famous singer, and everyone is crowded around him. Neither of us liked crowding, so we stood at the outermost edge and watched. Because we were quite tall, we could see inside and it was not difficult to see.
Accompanying the rough folk songs and looking at the surrounding cultural scenery, I can increasingly feel that everyone is far away from home and the uncertainty of wandering abroad seems to be highly resonated at this moment. Perhaps this is the thought-provoking power of music.
I got tired of listening, so I walked around and saw clay figurines. Ultra-light clay of different colors transformed into different classic characters in the hands of the master, such as the Monkey King, the Black Cat Sheriff, and the charm.
The balloon blowing on the side is even more miraculous. The balloons that were originally just the same shape and different colors turned into cute little animals such as caterpillars and little yellow ducks under the quick operation of the master. The children passing by loved it and made a lot of noise. He asked his mother to buy it for him.
"Do you like it? Why don't you buy one for you?" Shen Jie saw me watching for a long time, and then he came up to me because he was originally listening to the song, guessing that maybe I was attracted by it and wanted to buy it for me as a gift.
"No, no." I waved my hand. Although I thought it was cute, I was no longer old enough to play with this thing.
"Are you hungry? Let me take you to eat." Seeing that I was not interested in this, Shen Jie happily took me to eat in order to make me happy.
"Hey, what is this?" I saw a group of girls queuing up and doing some weird stuff, and I instantly became interested.
"Do you want it? Then let's line up and get one." After saying that, he led me to line up.
I know that he doesn't like queuing because he thinks it's a waste of time and doesn't want to waste his precious life on this unnecessary consumption. After waiting in line for a while, he looked around impatiently.
"It's your turn!"
I was a little distracted at first, but he reminded me, and I realized what I was doing. I picked up my phone and followed the staff step by step. I scanned the QR code, registered the information, and got a calendula soothing essence water and facial cleanser set.
After I got it, I happily shook it to Shen Jie. A person can only scan once, so Shen Jie helped me scan one too.
After giving it to me, he took me to the restaurant to eat quickly. He had to eat as soon as it was time to eat, otherwise he would be very hungry.
He took me directly to the window seat on the second floor of Xiaobai Xiang Restaurant and sat down: "This seat is good! I chose it specially."
I looked at the scenery outside the window through the glass and nodded with satisfaction. The tall sycamore trees are lush and green, probably more than 100 years old, witnessing the long history here.
The first dish: stir-fried yellow beef. When he saw the food coming, his eyes started to light up, partly because he was hungry, and partly because he had always liked the spicy taste of Hunan cuisine.
He ignored me and started to eat hungrily. After a while, before the second dish came, he had already finished a bowl of rice.
However, due to a severe cold, I haven’t had much appetite these days. I didn’t eat too many meat dishes, but I ate a lot of the second dish of garlic lettuce.
Next to us was a private room with a large group of grown-up men and women chattering noisily. Even in today's civilized world, wine table culture has always been the best way to discuss business.
After we had eaten and drank enough, we went downstairs, just in time to take a walk and digest.
Although my cold got better after getting wet, it is still not cured. The inflammation in my body has not gone away, and I still cough occasionally. Shen Jie is extremely sensitive to sounds, especially harsh ones. Although it is uncomfortable, he can only endure it. .
A fashionable fashionista with distinctive hair was chatting up the pretty girls coming and going. He asked them one by one if they wanted to have their hair done. He could design beautiful hairstyles and hair colors that suit them. Most of them The girl didn't stop and walked straight away. The barber could only follow and promote his excellent skills.
We saw each other, smiled, and passed by.
