Amidst the sound of sirens, the road to the Yellow Crane Tower was blocked.
The four irritable boys in the car finally took the opportunity to show off, but they were delayed for more than ten minutes on the road.
Prince Ning almost gave up his job. He was cursing and even wanted to run away with the car on his back.
Unfortunately, I was stopped by the driver--
The taxi they took was the Ningwang v200 taxi.
According to the uncle driver, there are many tourists from other places here. They choose to come here to attract customers, and there are rarely any empty seats.
No one else recognized him, but the 'little grudge' with acne on his face was still fresh in their memory.
The uncle driver is also a cheerful person. Seeing that he meets an acquaintance, he loses his temper and starts chatting in the car.
"Boys, there's really not much to do in Yellow Crane Tower."
Pressing down the car window, the uncle took a deep breath and blew out the cigarette. Smoke rings appeared, and his big yellow teeth showed his identity as an old smoker.
While shaking off the ashes of his cigarette, he glanced at the rear mirror in the car and said, "Many local girls and sons are as old as you, but they have never been able to surpass the Yellow Crane Tower."
Because the dialect is too strong, the tone of speaking is fierce.
Except for Jack and Li Nian, Ning Wang and Rookie were both confused.
The Jingchu dialect was a part of the southwestern Mandarin dialect in ancient times. As a native of Sichuan Province, Li Nian can still understand a little bit of it.
But when he encountered certain words, he could only scratch his head.
For example, a zebra——
In the uncle's 10 sentences, there are 20 'zebras'.
Rookie can understand Mandarin quite well, and dialects are basically foreign languages to him.
"Let's do something useful." Prince Ning scratched his head and looked at Jack sitting next to him. "It's time to show your local value."
Jack tilted his mouth, and an evil smile flashed across his immature face, which was not yet 17 years old, like a fighting little Shiba Inu.
"'Zebra' is understood as a modal particle, which is similar to the 'Xiba' that Rookie often says. When you are frustrated, you can also turn into a 'zebra' person!"
"伢 means child, but there is no specific age range. It is often used when elders speak to younger generations."
The uncle in front of me silently gave him a thumbs up, "You little guy, you look like a rhombus, and your accent is probably Huanggangdi."
Before anyone could ask questions, Jack raised his voice and answered quickly, "Uncle is complimenting me on how handsome I am!"
Li Nian rolled his eyes and said, "Gua Wa Zi"; King Ning was not to be outdone, "Silly Roe Deer."; Rookie secretly said, "Smelly boy!"
"Oh, what are you doing, oh,"
Jack puffed out his cheeks and pulled up his crotch, pretending to be angry.
"You just can't see how handsome I am, right?"
Prince Ning touched Jack's big head and said, "Yes, yes, the silly roe deer is the most handsome."
The actions of a few people really amused the uncle.
He put his left hand on the car door and flicked the ashes of his cigarette skillfully, "Don't you suggest I play a song?"
"Play it, play it, it's best if you play some high-energy music!"
Prince Ning said excitedly.
The uncle skillfully pressed the car music button, "I'm getting older and can't listen to high-pitched music anymore. Let's listen to folk songs."
As the melodious prelude of the folk song sounded, the previously impassable road gradually resumed traffic, and the car began to move slowly.
Reflecting the melody told in the song, the tall buildings outside the window kept flashing by, and the uncle volunteered to popularize the story of the Yellow Crane Tower.
"The Yellow Crane Tower, known as the 'No. 1 Tower in the World', praised by major literati in ancient times, has actually been in dilapidated condition for a long time."
"It was finally destroyed during the Guangxu period. What you can see now is actually the reconstruction of WH City in 1981 to imitate the original appearance."
The uncle recalled, lighting up a cigarette again, "So to us locals, he has long lost the historical charm, but..."
He changed his tone and showed his big yellow teeth, "But this is also one of the landmarks of Wuhan, so it's not a bad idea to go."
"No wonder the locals don't want to go, that's why."
Li Nian said while holding his chin.
"Then what are you going to do?" Ning Wangchao looked out the window. At this time, the outline of the Yellow Crane Tower appeared faintly in front of his eyes. "But we are here, so let's go shopping, otherwise this rest time will be wasted."
Rookie and Jack nodded in agreement. Li Nian actually wanted to go.
After all, it is a rare opportunity to come to Wuhan and experience the local customs and customs, which is not necessarily a bad thing.
Maybe there will be unexpected surprises.
The uncle was used to it, so he smiled and said,
"Next to the Yellow Crane Tower is the Yangtze River Bridge. There is a neighborhood snack that has been open for 20 years in the alley to the left of the bridge. If you have the chance, you can try it."
When it came to eating, Li Nian became interested. Until he got off the bus, he kept asking his uncle where he could find delicious food.
As for the awkward and difficult dialects, Jack was also diligent in translating.
Rookie stays in Shanghai all year round and rarely goes to other places. After listening to the translation, he couldn't help but be filled with emotion.
It turns out there are so many delicious food waiting for him!
"Thank you, uncle." Li Nian closed the car door happily.
"Wow, it feels so good!" Jack raised his head.
The high platform with emerald green fonts saying "The First Floor of the World" broke into the four people's eyes, and the antique pavilion above hung a plaque with the name "Yellow Crane Tower Park".
Probably because it was still late, there were not many tourists coming and going, but there were also many old people gathering in the pavilion to play chess and chat.
As the uncle said, most of the people who visit the Yellow Crane Tower are backpackers, and most of them gather in groups.
When the four of them walked to the gate to buy tickets, they saw two old ladies at the door talking excitedly, as if they were arguing about something.
"Is this... about to start a fight?" Prince Ning glanced sideways and quickly moved away, fearing that he would be affected.
Being 'retired' would be a nightmare!
The dialect of the two old ladies was too idiomatic, and their speech speed was even faster than the Hokage's hand seal. The three people except Jack didn't understand a word.
But it can be roughly judged from the tone and tone that they may be 'quarreling'...!
"The way old Wuhan people talk," Jack explained, "to outsiders, it sounds like they are about to start a fight, but in fact it is just an ordinary chat."
"Chat?" Prince Ning, who is from the Northeast, was a little surprised, "None of us talk so fiercely..."
Rookie nodded, not really understanding, "I feel like the two of them are no match for the four of us combined!"
"Maybe it's the tone?" Li Nian guessed, "When I was chatting with the factory director, his tone was relatively low, and he sounded fierce."
Jack looked at Li Nian in surprise, "That's true."
After buying the tickets, the group of four entered the scenic area, but due to time constraints, they went straight to the fifth floor of the Yellow Crane Tower.
Put yourself in their shoes and feel the mood of the ancients when they created the poems. But when Jack climbed up and looked into the distance,
When he looked at the magnificent scenery of the Yangtze River and Wuhan City, he discovered what it meant to read books only when they are used.
After holding it in for a long time, I could only use two concise words to summarize my inner turmoil.
"Fuck!".
Rookie was smarter and silently chose to record the beautiful scenery on his mobile phone, and then made a video call to Xiaoyu.
"Old Song, you..." Jack was forced to open the business, and the dog food was fed again.
