Chapter 2 Autumn Outing
Author: Runchao Cigarettes
"Brother Xiao Wu, you have been kicked out anyway, do you want to go to Xiangshan Park for an autumn outing with us?"
"What do you mean I was fired? I resigned voluntarily because I didn't want to work in a food factory anymore."
"it's the same."
"Can it be the same? Aren't you two going to play in Xiangshan Park? Go quickly."
"Brother Xiaowu, let's go together."
"I won't go. I'm going to see my master. I'm leaving now."
"Say hello to Uncle Guan for me. I'll see him another day."
"OK."
After finally having a day off on the weekend, Xu Jingping insisted on taking him to Xiangshan Park to see some red leaves.
In the alley, I met Han Chunming, who had resigned from a food factory, and chatted for a while. Then Yang Yukun and Xu Jingping started to rush to Xiangshan Park.
"Yang Yukun, you come and ride."
"Okay."
Xu Jingping is a car owner. After graduating from junior high school this summer, her parents bought her a Phoenix brand bicycle.
From then on, Yang Yukun started a career exploited by her and became her full-time driver.
Xiangshan Park is one of the three mountains and five gardens, located in the northwest suburbs of the imperial capital.
Since the Liao and Jin Dynasties, the western suburbs of the imperial capital have been famous scenic spots.
To the east of Xishan Mountain, there are many mountains, many lakes, abundant springs and mountains and rivers, which have the charm of a water town in the south of the Yangtze River.
Therefore, successive dynasties built palaces and gardens here.
Three Mountains and Five Gardens refers to the collective name for the historical and cultural heritage represented by the royal gardens of the Qing Dynasty in the northwest suburbs of the imperial capital.
The three mountains refer to Wanshou Mountain, Xiangshan Mountain and Yuquan Mountain.
The Five Gardens refer to the Summer Palace, Jingyi Garden, Jingming Garden, Changchun Garden and Old Summer Palace.
Those elderly people came to Beijing in 1949, and their first stop was the Shuangqing Villa in Xiangshan, where they took command and prepared for the establishment of the People's Government.
In 1956, Xiangshan Park was officially opened to the public as the People's Park.
The red leaves in Xiangshan are truly unique.
The leaves of cotinus all over the mountains and plains are as red as flames.
A gust of autumn wind blew by, like red clouds overwhelming the mountains.
There are also pines and cypresses dotted among them, red and green, which are strange and gorgeous.
This is not the first time for Yang Yukun to come to this place. He had accompanied Xu Jingping to Xiangshan to see the red leaves several times before.
More than just Xiangshan.
The three mountains and five gardens have been visited by the two of them over the years, and Yang Yukun even swam in Kunming Lake in the summer.
"Yang Yukun, take a picture of me here."
"Okay, look at the camera, smile, click."
Xu Jingping not only owns a car, but also a camera. Her parents bought her this summer, a Seagull 4 camera produced by the Shencheng Camera Factory, which is a well-known brand.
He has decided to marry his childhood sweetheart, a proper little rich woman.
Her mother started running a business and running a tavern in the 1950s. Although it was later converted into a public-private partnership and owned by the whole people, she still made a lot of money.
Otherwise, where would the money come from to buy a piece of my father's ancestral courtyard house? Where would the money come from to buy Xu Jingping and her three sisters this and that? Where would the money come from to help the cousin's family who had robbed her former husband from time to time in the countryside?
"Yang Yukun, stand here and I will take some photos for you."
"Here."
"Yes, don't be so embarrassed, just smile and make some moves."
"yeah!"
Yang Yukun made a scissor hand gesture and smiled like a husky.
Many people came to Xiangshan Park to see the red leaves, and Xu Jingping asked others to help take a few group photos.
The camera kept clicking until all the film I brought was used up.
In the evening, the two of them sat on the top of Xianglu Peak and watched the sunset.
There was no one on the peak at this time, so they were the only two who had this leisure time.
"Eunuch Sun has come home from get off work. Xu Jingping, let's go too."
"Yang Yukun, my legs are so sore that I can't walk anymore."
"I really admire you, Miss, come up."
"whee."
"Don't move around. Do you know what this place is called? I'm sorry for the ghosts. If we fall from here, we both have to go see the Lord of Hell."
As soon as Xu Jingping said that her legs were sore that she couldn't walk, Yang Yukun knew what she was planning.
Carrying Xu Jingping on his back and walking down the mountain, the Xianglu Peak, which is known as ghost-seeing sorrow, felt like walking on flat ground under Yang Yukun's feet.
Because he has been practicing martial arts since he was a child. He practiced martial arts for more than ten years in his previous life and for a little less than ten years in his next life. He is very stable.
I learned it from an old man in the village in my previous life. When he was a soldier, he learned Guzhuang Boxing from his old company commander who was born in Bagui.
Yang Yukun saw this elder boxing in his previous life. When he saw it, he thought, oh, it's so fierce, so he pestered the elder to teach him Guzhuang Boxing. He was proficient in all the techniques, fighting tools, and equipment.
After being reborn, he started practicing at the age of five. He practiced hard for ten years and became invincible in every Qianmen building. He was known as the Qianmen Little Bully.
Come down from the mountain and go to the place where the bicycle is stored to pick up the bicycle.
"Xu Jingping, sit tight, hold on tight, I'm going to speed up!"
"Yang Yukun, ride slower!"
"Come on!"
"Slow down!"
"Don't be afraid, brother will show you what it feels like to fly."
On the way back, Yang Yukun pedaled his bicycle so hard that it flew up.
Xu Jingping tightly hugged Yang Yukun's waist and kept telling Yang Yukun to ride slower.
It originally took nearly two hours to ride a bicycle, but Yang Yukun returned in 40 minutes.
"Hiss...Xu Jingping, you are so cruel, murdering your own husband, right?"
"Yang Yukun, if you ride so fast again in the future, I will ignore you from now on."
"Okay, I promise this is the last time. I'll turn red when you pinch me."
"You asked for it."
"Okay, I'll give you the camera, but I won't go in. Say hello to Uncle Cai and Aunt Xu for me."
"What are you doing? You're already at the door. If you don't go in, aren't you afraid that my parents will turn around and scold you?"
"I went to see my master. I haven't been there for several days. I left the bicycle."
"Pick me up tomorrow morning and accompany me to the photo studio to develop the photos."
"Okay, let's go."
After sending Xu Jingping to the door of their yard, Yang Yukun first went back to his house in the alley next door and took a bottle of Maotai wine from the cabinet.
He has been able to raise himself so big all by himself for so many years, all because of the growing space he had with him.
Sometimes when he ran out of money, he would secretly take some grain from the growing space and sell it on the black market in exchange for some coupons or something.
Yesterday, when I came back from school and passed by a grocery store, I saw Maotai liquor for sale. I happened to have a ticket in my hand, so I packed a bottle and planned to take it to honor my master.
"Xiao Kun, what are you doing?"
"Brother Xiaowu, Sister Mengmeng, how are you two learning?"
When Yang Yukun was about to leave the alley, he ran into Han Chunming and Su Meng who were walking on the road.
The two of them are already in their twenties and have reached the age where they should start a family.
The situation of these two people is quite complicated.
Su Meng's parents are both teachers, and her family is relatively well-off. Her family has pampered her since she was a child, and she has grown up as a little princess who has been held in the palm of her hand.
Han Chunming's personality is one of those who likes to keep everything in his heart and not tell Su Meng. These two people have different personalities.
Originally, neither Su's father nor Su's mother liked Han Chunming very much, thinking that Han Chunming was not worthy of their precious daughter.
Now Han Chunming has resigned from the food factory and is going to collect rags. Whether these two can succeed in the end depends on God's will.
After chatting for a while, Yang Yukun stopped disturbing their date and rode his bicycle straight to Rouge Alley.
