Chen Xing looked at the photos he had just taken and kept the one with the best smile. So cute. Other people's daughters are so kind, just like his niece Little Apple. Every time he goes to his sister's house and hears her calling her "uncle" and then opening her little hands for a hug, Chen Xing always has the urge to buy her everything.
But giving birth to oneself...forget it, I haven't had enough fun yet. If you look carefully, there are many stories that can be photographed on this river.
You can take a picture of the girl leaning on the guardrail. Maybe there are fish in the water. She is staring at the river and talking to her companions vividly.
Not far from Chen Xing, there was a young lady holding a camera. She was probably just out of society. Even wearing the most ordinary T-shirt could not stop her youthful spirit. She also took the camera to look for what happened on this corridor. story.
Perhaps feeling Chen Xing's gaze, he moved the camera to Chen Xing's side. Huh? handsome guy?
Before she pressed the shutter, Chen Xing also quickly picked up the camera, quickly manually adjusted the focus, and pressed the shutter almost at the same time as her.
Got two photos taken by the photographer. Hasselblad's autofocus is very powerful. It's better than Nikon by a Sony. But in this emergency situation, Chen Xing's manual focus is faster. He doesn't even need to look at the effect in the viewfinder and just shoots.
Hasselblad smells great. Putting down the camera, the two of them smiled but did not recognize each other. This photo must be kept, both of them thought.
After all, this kind of picture can usually only be taken in staged photos, but now it has been completed unintentionally. It would be blasphemous to the model not to print out this natural effect and hang it on the wall.
There aren't many people in the store now. After all, tapes are really useless now and can only be used for collection, but few people will spend more than they expect to collect such things. Even if they are fans of a certain celebrity, even Chen Xing in the past would think it is too expensive. .
That was before. Aren’t you rich now? Chen Xing can't save money, but he is still willing to spend money.
We couldn't get into the store, so the girl who was doing the live broadcast used a board of just the right length to block the entrance of the store. She chatted with the fans in the live broadcast room about what song they were going to sing, and when she noticed someone coming over, she took a look.
He never took his eyes off this glance. Chen Xing asked: "How much is that tape of Jay Chou?"
"200, I promise it's genuine, and I'll also give you a walkman. Which song by Jay Chou do you like, handsome?"
"The clock in the opposite direction."
"What a coincidence. I also like this song. I have sung it in the live broadcast room before." As she said this, she stood on tiptoes and took the tape Chen Xing asked for from the shelf, and then found three more from the counter. Walkmans of the same color but the same style, asked: "Handsome, what color do you like?"
"It's white." Generally, Walkmans for listening to cassettes are very big. After all, cassettes are very big, but the one she gave is indeed very small, only slightly larger than the cassette. It seems to be the latest technology in recent years, and it looks good. Also high.
Chen Xing first scanned the QR code to give the money, then picked up the walkman and tape and said, "Thank you."
"Hey...earphones!" Zhou Tong was only looking at the handsome guy, forgetting that this Walkman does not have an external amplifier function. Without earphones, it is just a small brick, which can't hurt anyone.
Chen Xing took the headphones and left. The tape is just right for listening to, I put it on the side of my backpack after playing it, and the headphone cable is long enough.
These headphones are pretty good and very comfortable to wear.
"I want to have a helicopter, and I want to fly to the universe with you..." The female anchor bent over and looked at Chen Xing in the corridor for a long time. She didn't go back until he disappeared into the crowd, and sat down with a melancholy look on her face. In front of the mobile phone screen, he said to the tens of thousands of fans in the live broadcast room: "In order to live broadcast for you, you don't know what I missed?"
"Woman Minato! She actually let us look at the chair for ten minutes."
"I heard someone bought Jay Chou's album?"
"When have you ever sung The Bell in the Opposite Direction?? Hurry up and make up for it!" Zhou Tong took a few deep breaths, adjusted his breath first, and then said with a smile: "Okay, I haven't sung this song for a long time. Find the lyrics first." There were tens of thousands of people online in a live broadcast room during the day. No wonder she said she opened a store just for fun.
At this time, Chen Xing was about to walk out of the porch, but he smelled a scent. When I turned around, I saw a snack bar.
Chen Xing held up the action camera and said: "The ruthless people in the Northeast are right. When you are hungry, you turn around and see a small shop with a fragrant aroma. This is happiness. Although this issue is a video about an ancient town, let's simply explore it. The store won't be affected, right?" Chen Xing took off the earphone on the right and followed in line.
This is a shop that sells pancakes. If they were in the Central Plains, they would definitely be called steamed buns. In the southwest, they would be called so-and-so cakes. In the south, they like to subdivide pancakes or cakes. This shop in front of you makes one type of pancake.
Chen Xing actually didn't understand the reason. The main reason was that the signature of this store was called malt pancake. There were not many people queuing up, and we arrived at Chenxing soon.
"How many do you want?" asked the cake buyer. Chen Xing swallowed a mouthful of saliva and gestured with his hands. The two are about the same. Today is still a long time, and I don’t know what food I will encounter in the future. I will be full for a while now and I won’t be able to eat anymore.
The malt cake is ugly. It is dark green in color and has been deep-fried. The crackling sound can be clearly heard in the store. The fried color is not very good-looking, but after adding some water to cook it, the appearance becomes even worse. .
But it smells delicious. Chen Xing has long passed the stage of judging food based on appearance. As long as it looks reliable, Chen Xing can eat it no matter what it looks like.
At least I still have the courage to try it. Holding the packed malt pancake, Chen Xing squeezed out of the crowd from the side. A good-looking girl in Hanfu suddenly came over with her head lowered and asked: "Handsome man, I lost my mobile phone. Can I borrow your mobile phone to make a call?"
"Okay." Chen Xing handed over the phone without hesitation. No matter what her purpose was, Chen Xing wouldn't lose anything anyway... Even if she turned around and ran away with her phone, it would be fine. She couldn't run as fast as him anyway.
After a while, a ringing sound came from her. It was probably their first time to strike up a conversation, and she learned the method from Douyin. The girl blushed cutely, holding Chen Xing's cell phone in both hands and handing it to him with her head down.
Chen Xing ate the malt pancake he had just received indifferently, took back his cell phone and said, "I'll call you later," he said proactively.
"Ah...ok...thank you!" There are quite a few people wearing Hanfu here. Almost one person out of twenty tourists is wearing Hanfu, but the proportion is already very high. Anyway, no matter where you go, you can at least see something. When there are dozens or hundreds of people, you can see about a dozen men and women wearing Hanfu.
They were all young people, definitely no older than 25. The revival of Hanfu has only happened in the past ten years. For many people, even those born in the 1980s, it is considered a strange costume. Even if they themselves say they support such behavior on the Internet, they generally will not wear it themselves.
And people aged 40-60 may not be able to recognize the difference between Hanfu and Kimono. Chen Xing knew a very powerful Hanfu up owner, a college student in Chengdu. At that time, Chen Xing saw that she had worn many sets of clothes. She usually wore Hanfu when she went shopping every day. It was very beautiful.
But he didn't wear it himself. The owner of that up is called You Jiangling. There are only Hanfus worn by girls at home, and there is nothing Chen Xing can wear.
Suddenly I came up with the idea of traveling in Hanfu. But I was dissuaded by the current weather. Even though the temperature here is already very comfortable compared to the outside, this comfort is relative. It is impossible to have the cool feeling in spring and autumn, and wearing Hanfu requires two or three layers, otherwise there will be no inner layer. What a contrast, how ugly it is.
Next time, next time. This time it would be nice to just appreciate the beauties wearing Hanfu. Chen Xing thought like this and took another bite of this malt pancake.
Although this pancake doesn't look good, it tastes really good. When you take a bite, you will be greeted by a refreshing fragrance and sweetness, as well as a kind of honest aroma. It is unclear whether it is the fragrance of the land or the smell of the crops growing vigorously. Come to think of it, maybe it is the unique smell of Jiangnan.
It's not rotten, not sticky, not greasy, and has a slightly spicy taste. After the two finished eating, Chen Xing felt hungrier than before, so he switched from looking for scenery to looking for food.
There is a lot to eat in Xitang. There is a kind of steamed pork with lotus leaves, which tastes like lotus. Chen Xing has always liked eating this steamed pork, so he bought one and ate it with a skewer. He also went to a milk tea shop to buy fruit tea. .
In addition to this unique and interesting commercial street, this attraction is also famous for its 'nong'. The most famous one is Shipi Lane, which is one of the must-visit attractions when you come here.
The emergence of this kind of thing is also related to the environment in Jiangnan. Because these small towns are located in places with dense water networks, local people calculated every inch when building houses and tried to minimize the distance between buildings, so that one room and another room formed a "line" in the middle. Damn it.
Walking in this alley, stepping on the ancient blue bricks, you are always looking forward to whether a girl will come over and meet you by chance.
After all, the aisles are narrow, so close contact is inevitable. Maybe it's the beginning of a relationship.
After walking out of this alley, there is no road ahead. The end of the Yixiantian Passage is a three-step stone staircase. Going down it is the river. I don’t know if the boat owners know that people often come out of this place. There are several boats parked in a small place.
The boat owner closest to Chen Xing asked: "Young man, do you want to take a boat?"
"Okay." Chen Xing took two steps along the stone, and then carefully stepped onto the awning boat. He rarely takes a boat, and the last time he took a boat, his impression was not very good. He took a boat with a group of old African buddies for a long time. If they hadn't been sitting in the cabin, Chen Xing might have suffered from psychological problems. .
The boss saw Chen Xing's cautious look and said with a smile: "Young man, don't worry, I'm famous for my stability." Chen Xing could only say: "I just rarely take boats." The awning boat is very famous in the Jiangnan water town. The vehicle is famous for its black paint, and its style should not be too particular. At least the boats Chen Xing saw on this river are all different, each with its own characteristics.
Some canopies are on both sides, and some are in the middle. In the boat Chen Xing was sitting on, his tents were not on both sides, nor in the middle, but close to the front third. There was no tent at the back where the boss of the boat was holding the boat, so he stood at the stern and paddled. .
"I haven't said where I'm going yet." Chen Xing said.
"Then just tell me." Chen Xing thought for a while and said, "I don't know yet. Let's look around."
"Okay!" The boat boss was so happy. They were waiting for guests outside the alley because of this. The foreign guests who came out from there basically didn't expect that the end of the road was a river, so there was a high probability that they didn't want to go there. place.
If your guests sit a little longer, you can make more money. Chen Xing was tired after walking for most of the day. He saw there were small chairs inside the boat canopy, so he sat down with his bag at his feet, camera in hand, and looked at the scenery on both sides of the river.
It's dinner time now, but Chen Xing has eaten a lot of snacks along the way and is not hungry. But Xitang, which is getting late, is very charming.
There are big red lanterns hanging outside every house. As soon as it gets dark, all the lanterns are lit. This red light instantly overwhelms the still hazy light in the sky and becomes the most conspicuous thing around. color.
There is not much color in the ancient town. The walls are white, the tiles are black, and the awning boats are also black. The only things that stand out are the sunset slanting over them and the countless red lanterns on both sides of the river.
Chen Xing lay down halfway, holding his head in his hands, looking at the sunset in the distance very comfortably. The sunset was about to set, but the end of Chen Xing's field of vision was not a mountain, but a bridge. The sky was not dark enough to be completely invisible, so Chen Xing could see the reflection of the bridge still reflected in the river. Bridge, a red sunset is gradually rising.
Take a awning boat to roam Xitang, with winding and mottled corridors on both sides. From a distance, you can see the awning boats swaying on the rippling blue river, which has a unique style.
Snapped! Suddenly, a heavy raindrop hit Chen Xing's face. He wiped it and was stunned for a moment.
The man who was punting the boat said, "Guest, it's raining. Why don't you go under the tent and take shelter from the rain?" No wonder it got dark so fast. It turned out to be raining.
Chen Xing followed the good example and said, "Okay." Then he moved the chair in. It doesn't matter if it rains. Today's temperature is too high. Maybe a rain will lower the temperature and he will feel more comfortable when he goes out for a walk tomorrow.
After a while, heavy rain fell. Chen Xing stood firmly inside the boat canopy, watching the calm lake surface rippled by the rain. The entire Xitang world was washed with a layer of water color, and the ancient houses on the roadside suddenly seemed to come to life, with extremely special features. Strong vitality.
The real Jiangnan is in the rain! Chen Xing had goosebumps all over his body and took a lot of photos with his camera.
Hearing someone trotting on the side of the road, Chen Xing looked over and saw that it was three people who had just come out of an alley. They had no time to find a place to hide from the rain. After all, there was no shed here, and the alley was originally where the water from the roof of the house fell. , all three of them became drowned rats.
Chen Xing said: "Friend, why don't you get on the boat and take shelter from the rain?" One of them saw Chen Xing's graceful demeanor and said to his companion: "How about we just go back to the hotel like this? We're all soaked anyway?"
"It's better to hide!" When another man heard Chen Xing's invitation, he quickly replied,
"Thank you!" Chen Xing asked the boat man to approach them. This is a traveling group of two men and one woman, and they look relatively young.
Anyway, most of the people who travel are young, and those who are married are basically buried in the family. Unless the wife and children have time, or unless it is a business trip, it is absolutely impossible to travel alone.
"Thank you." said the girl among them. She was also wet, and although she was wearing glasses, she looked very good.
Chen Xing handed the girl the windbreaker he had been holding since he got off the plane, and said, "Put it on. It's still a little cold on the river. Don't catch a cold." There was just a table and four chairs in the boat canopy.
The four of them sat together. Although they were strangers and Chen Xing didn't know anyone, the sight of sitting on this swaying boat with three or five friends in the misty rain and having heart-to-heart conversations was mesmerizing just thinking about it.
Although many people have criticized the commercial development of Xitang, at the same time, its veil has been lifted, allowing more people to experience this style.
Forget about business, forget about tickets, forget that this boat costs money. Be an ordinary tourist and linger in this dreamy water town.
