Chapter 702 Riding a Horse



Chapter 702 Riding a Horse

After leaving the house, Wang Yan and Xu Hongdou were not in a hurry to eat. Instead, they walked leisurely on the stone road, looking here and there, chatting and laughing, taking photos. Sometimes they take photos of each other, and sometimes they take photos of each other. They look very close to each other while laughing and joking.

It's still the same truth. In a strange place, two people who are relatively familiar with each other and who are in similar situations will often get closer.

For example, what is common experience is that when multiple interns join a new company, in most cases, interns in the same department will be closer, and secondly, they will be closer to those who have just become full-time employees. Of course, the premise is that this person who has just become a regular person has a sound mind and doesn't put on airs.

Wandering like this, the two of them arrived at the restaurant they saw earlier. In fact, it was not very far from the B\u0026B courtyard, but it still took them twenty minutes to get here.

This hotel is called Gesanghua, and it is one of the only four or five hotels that Wang Yan and the others visited along the way. This is normal. After all, there are few tourists here, and the village is not that big. It can only do business for outsiders, and few locals come to patronize it. Some people think that it is good to open a restaurant.

After all, to open a business, you need to prepare ingredients in advance, bear the cost of food spoilage, and have to go and apply for various certificates. All kinds of troubles are also inevitable. Many people don't have the courage or are lazy to do it, and after all, they don't make much money. People still prefer things that only make money without losing money, and prefer things that are comfortable.

And being able to host so many restaurants is already the limit of this village. Even if someone else wants to do it, these four or five family members will not be willing to do it. Very few people are willing to cause that trouble.

The shop is not big, with four tables outside. Two tables are already occupied at the moment. They are both male and female couples. I think they just wandered here casually, and it happened to be lunch time.

Wang Yan and Xu Hongdou walked into the store one after another. A woman in national costume sitting on a stool quickly sat up and took a plastic-wrapped menu: "Sit inside or outside? This is the menu, take a look. What do you want to eat?"

"It's still a bit windy outside, why don't you sit inside?" Xu Hongdou took the menu and said while looking at the two tables in the room.

"As you say, sit at the table by the window."

The two of them sat down at the table, and the proprietress stood beside them with a pen and paper. Xu Hongdou glanced at the menu briefly, pushed it to Wang Yan and said, "Hey, I don't know how much you eat, so just be modest."

Wang Yan was not polite, took the menu and asked: "There are no taboos, right?"

"Anything is fine."

"That's not even possible?"

Xu Hongdou laughed out loud, shook his head and said, "It's all fine. I'm not picky about food. I can eat anything, but I can't eat too much of anything."

Wang Yan looked at the menu with a smile and asked the proprietress: "I heard that you have a Tuba bowl with Bai ethnic characteristics here. Can you make it?"

"Oh, this won't work. Our store is small, and we don't have that many customers on weekdays. We can't prepare so many dishes. It's too late to buy the dishes and cook them now. In this way, you can order a few dishes first to see if they taste to your liking. If you think it's okay, then we'll go to the market to buy vegetables tomorrow morning, and you'll come over for fresh food at noon. It's just eight vegetables, and I'm afraid you two won't be able to eat them..."

"It's okay, boss lady, I'm a very good eater." Wang Yan returned the menu to the boss lady and said with a smile, "Well, we don't know what other dishes you have here, just take a look and order four dishes." There are no dietary restrictions on the soup, and the same goes for the staple food. Just follow the arrangements and eat until you are full. Oh, by the way, the soup is water-based Yanghua soup, the name sounds interesting. "

"Okay." The landlady likes to order dishes in this way, but there are always some people who hold the menu for a long time and can't order it.

"Lady boss." Xu Hongdou stopped the proprietress who was about to leave and asked, "Why do you call it water-based Yanghua soup?"

"This is a plant in Lugu Lake. It blooms on the water surface every summer and drifts with the current, so it has this name. The soup made with it is fresh and sweet, as you will know in a moment."

After speaking, the landlady went to the kitchen to arrange the dishes with a smile.

"You said there are so few tourists here and they can't make much money. Why do they still look so happy?"

"The pace of life is slow. They are all locals who have lived here with land and property for generations. The amount of money they can't make is relative. Compared with their cost of living, even if they sell three tables in one day, it's still a waste. It is enough to live on, not to mention that people may have other livelihoods and can always make some money. As long as there is no incurable terminal illness and you restrain your desires, life will certainly be very happy. Unlike you, the manager of a big hotel, although you earn a monthly salary It's more than 20,000, but if you rent a house by yourself, it costs 5,000 or 6,000, right? A meal can be just 30, 40, or 40, right? It doesn't necessarily taste good.

Dealing with all kinds of guests every day and seeing a lot of weird things is enough to consume your energy. You have to work night shifts. Although you can have a room to rest, you can't rest for a while. Your hotel is also for youth, and you are a lesbian, and it also involves issues of future marriage and childbirth. Your age of thirty-two is also quite embarrassing. When you think about the unattainable housing prices and the uncertain future, others I don't know how, but you must be unhappy.

But don’t just look at the surface. After all, who doesn’t have something bad going on? For example, I worry about the future of my children, getting married and having children, etc. It’s just that everything looks good, so why can’t I cry? "

Xu Hongdou couldn't help but sigh: "You're right. How do I think now? Why do I feel like a zombie before? I never get enough sleep, my head is empty, I just work, work, work every day. I finally take a day off, but I have to take a rest at any time." Stand by, I don’t know when a call will come. Hey, this is really..."

"Aren't you all resigned? Then have fun, relax, don't think about all the messy things, and let yourself go."

"How can I really be short-term? Although I have some savings, I am far from ready to retire. I always have to plan for the future."

Wang Yan shook his head with a smile: "If you think so, then you won't be able to play well in the past few months. But I guess you have just arrived now and still have this idea. After you stay here for a few days, I won’t think so anymore.”

"What would I think?"

"Fuck work!"

Xu Hongdou was stunned for a moment, then raised his eyebrows and smiled: "You're right, go to work..."

The restaurant cooks very quickly. The husband and wife team were busy together. Wang Yan and Xu Hongdou chatted and laughed for about 20 minutes before four dishes, one soup and two small bowls of cold chicken rice noodles were placed on the table.

Twisting her hair and taking a long breath, Xu Hongdou nodded repeatedly and said to the proprietress who was standing aside wiping her hands with her apron: "It smells really good. You can tell it's delicious just by smelling it."

The proprietress smiled and said: "That's right, our store has been open for a long time, and everyone who has eaten it says it is good. This fish casserole and braised chicken are our specialty dishes. Come and eat them. If you have any comments, please let us know. , we will also absorb the improvements.”

Xu Hongdou smiled politely and handed the camera to Wang Yan: "Take a picture for me."

"Just use mine. I'll do some post-processing when I get back in the evening, and I'll send it to you then." As he spoke, Wang Yan leaned back on the stool with a smile, and raised the camera in front of his eyes: "Come on, let's compare our lives."

Xu Hongdou laughed, showing her teeth and gesticulating...

After a continuous snap of photos, Xu Hongdou also used her camera to take photos of Wang Yan. After two minutes, when the two of them stopped, the landlady asked, "Do you want me to take a group photo for you?"

"Of course that's good." Wang Yan nodded with a smile, handed the camera to the landlady, and taught him how to use it. Then he and Xu Hongdou turned sideways, tilted their heads, and said yes, with smiles on their faces.

The proprietress smiled and pressed the shutter. With a click, the scene at this moment was frozen...

After eating and ordering eight large bowls for lunch the next day, the two of them still did not go back, but continued to wander outside. After all, if you are traveling, you still have plenty of time, so naturally you want to take more walks.

Outside Yunmiao Village is a large wheat field with a two-lane asphalt road. Green wheat fields on both sides and the endless road in the center. Looking back, you can see the characteristic buildings of Yunmiao Village. They are layered on top of each other. Looking up again, you can see the Cangshan Mountain under the blue sky and white clouds. The snow that never melts all year round meets the drifting mountains. The clouds seem to connect the sky. Because the sun is facing west and the village is east of Cangshan Mountain, they are in the shadow of Cangshan Mountain, which is even taller and majestic.

The breeze blew, causing the wheat fields to ripple and create beautiful arcs. The wind blew my hair and made my face feel cool. What is breathing on the tip of the nose is the smell of the wilderness brought by the breeze. The smell is fresh, natural, refreshing, and makes people linger.

After walking through the wheat fields and along the foot of the mountain, over a small slope, I saw a horse farm. Some people are holding the reins, some are riding on horses, some horses are grazing by themselves, and some horses are wandering around boredly. It's not all horses, there are a few old cows, a few chickens scattered on the ground, and even an khaki pastoral dog having a good time.

Of course, this is the racecourse that Xie Zhiyao took over that cannot survive. The place is quite good. The reason why the former boss could not continue to operate may be because this is not a serious road to Cangshan Mountain, and it is also not directly visible to people around Erhai Lake. It was not well publicized, and there were no new customers or old customers, so It's just a waste of time. Xie Zhiyao is different. He is a young man who is educated, knowledgeable, thoughtful, and good at publicity. He has been running the business since he took it over.

Or to put it another way, Xie Zhiyao is the male protagonist, and he should have a horse farm in his life that shows his inner aggressiveness and drive...

"It's so beautiful." Xu Hongdou sighed after standing on the hillside for a long time.

Wang Yan was taking photos beside him. Hearing this, he smiled and said: "Actually, it's not that special. China's land of 9.6 million square kilometers has many places with good mountains, water and woods. I guess, you I have never seen Beijing well in these years, and there are many good places around it. The reason why you think it is different here has a lot to do with the fact that you have traveled more than 2,000 kilometers. This is a psychological problem."

"It's annoying, what you say is so disgraceful."

Wang Yan laughed: "Let's go, we're all here, I definitely have to go over and have a look. It looks like this is open to the public. Come over and have fun. Can you ride a horse?"

"No." Xu Hongdou shook his head, "Can you?"

"Will you? Let's gallop!"

Looking at Wang Yan's back, Xu Hongdou pouted: "Hey, wait for me..."

Wangshan was like a dead horse. Standing on the hillside, it looked very close, but in fact it was still some distance away. It took me a while to walk on the meadow to get to the place.

After walking around the fence to the gate of the racecourse, a man in his forties and wearing national costumes came up to him: "Hello, this is Cangshan Muyun Racecourse. Do you want to ride a horse?"

"Here are two horses. She doesn't know how to ride. Find a docile one for her. I'll let her do as she pleases. I don't need your people to watch. Let's play for... half an hour first. It's too long. I guess you won't find it interesting either. Experience it. Just experience it.”

Seeing him looking at her, Xu Hongdou nodded and said, "It's up to you." After all, she didn't understand, so she just followed Wang Yan's arrangement.

The man in national costume raised the sign hanging around his neck: "Two hundred, scan the code on WeChat. You will have to sign a disclaimer later. After all, riding horses has certain risks, although the horses we ride here are all They are relatively docile, but there is no guarantee that accidents will happen. However, although we have signed a disclaimer, our racecourse will also fulfill its maximum safety obligations, so you can rest assured. And so far, there has not been a single accident at our racecourse."

Without letting Xu Hongdou pay, Wang Yan scanned the QR code to pay, followed the people to the big wooden house in the racecourse, and signed a disclaimer. Xie Zhiyao didn't do it for free, he treated her very professionally. Because he did not need the security personnel accompanying the horse, the disclaimer he signed was different. It was a pile of voluntary abandonment. Moreover, there were cameras in the room, and the middle-aged man who led them in took the trouble to clear it. Explain clearly to avoid legal risks as much as possible and avoid the unfavorable situation you may face if something goes wrong.

But I said before that there had been no accidents at the racecourse, which made people ignore the risk of possible accidents and happily signed the disclaimer.

This is a normal routine, but it is also understandable. It's just that Xie Zhiyao's disclaimer is better. After all, you are just out for fun, so what can you do without risk? There are risks when flying, there are risks when driving, and there are risks when walking on the road. People just held the idea that it couldn't be me who was unlucky, and it didn't matter.

After signing, Xu Hongdou put on a helmet, knee pads and other protective equipment, and followed the middle-aged man to the stable.

There are seven or eight horses in the stable, all of which are Mongolian and Kazakh horses. The ones here are all for people to pay to ride. The ones seen before are not included. This horse is not very good, it is just easy to take care of. Compared to the horses that once accompanied him in battles, it was a place in the sky and a place on the earth. The horses he had in the ancient world were all Dawan war horses selected from the best. They were often said to be the blood-stained BMWs that travel thousands of miles a day. In terms of status, they were almost the same as luxury cars worth millions today. More valuable than gold...

None of them were good horses, and there were only a few of them in total. Wang Yan didn't pick and choose, so he just let someone lead one at random and went out.

With the support of the staff who accompanied the horse and protected it, Xu Hongdou stepped on the horse stool with difficulty and got on the horse. She adjusted her helmet and looked down at Wang Yan who was taking the photo: "Big photographer, come here, show me. Let me see how you gallop."

Wang Yan smiled and threw the camera around his neck behind him: "Then take a good look."

After saying that, Wang Yan easily got on the horse, knocked the horse's belly slightly, flicked the reins, and with a 'ha' sound, the horse ran out like an arrow off the string.

As Xu Hongdou watched, Wang Yan bowed and rode farther and farther on the horse, really galloping.

"Oh, your boyfriend is so awesome."

Hearing the exclamation of the staff holding the horse, Xu Hongdou was stunned for a moment, but she did not explain, because it was unnecessary to explain unnecessary things to irrelevant people.

She turned to ask: "What level is he?"

"It's very high. Think about it. No matter how docile a horse is, it has a bad temper. How can it be ridden casually? Your boyfriend can make the horse so obedient, so fast, and have such good posture for the first time he rides it. He is definitely a master. How to put it specifically...if he participates in those equestrian competitions, or is a horse betting rider or something, under fair and equitable circumstances, he can hope to win the championship."

Wang Yan, who was galloping on horseback, didn't know what others were saying, and even if he knew, he would laugh it off. After all, he was wearing dozens of kilograms of face-covered armor, wielding a three-meter-long horse spear weighing more than ten kilograms, and fighting on the battlefield. The undefeated general who rushes to kill the enemy.

At this moment, the long-lost galloping on horseback made his energy and blood surge, evoking the memories of the past when horses were riding all over the world. He felt the flow of the wind, listened to the roar of the sky, and it seemed as if another crowd of people were tumbling on their backs before his eyes.

When he came back to his senses, he had already made a big circle and rushed towards Xu Hongdou, who was holding a camera and capturing the moment of his galloping horse.

The distance of a hundred meters passed in a blink of an eye. When he arrived not far from Xu Hongdou, Wang Yan tightened the reins and controlled the horse to slow down. Then, the horse raised its front hooves high and neighed, expressing its good mood.

It wasn't until he felt comfortable that the horse snorted and approached Xu Hongdou panting.

Seeing Wang Yan, who was not blushing or out of breath, but still had a smile on his face, Xu Hongdou gave him a thumbs up: "That's awesome."

"I never brag."

"Where did you learn to ride horses? Inner Mongolia?"

"I've come across a lot of racecourses along the way. I just ride a horse when I see them. Man, who doesn't have a dream of galloping horses and enjoying grudges?"

"Perhaps you have already achieved it. After all, you have traveled so many places and met so many people. Can you consider it as traveling around the world?" Xu Hongdou said with a smile, "Hey, when I saw you riding a horse just now, I felt like you were watching TV. It feels like a general galloping on the battlefield, it feels very powerful."

"Oh, thank you. This is the first time someone has praised me like this. In the past, people said that I am good at riding, but this is something new for you."

At the foot of Cangshan Mountain, a man and a woman ride side by side on the green grass. If there were no staff holding the horses to protect them, this would be a very beautiful picture...
