A Journey Through the Worlds of Film and Television.

Chapter 193 Going on a Trip

The tough appearance of the G-Class and its high price make it very attractive on the road.

When Lu Cheng was taking a break at a service area, sometimes girls would come over to take pictures, watch, or even ask for his WeChat.

Since Lu Cheng's physical endurance far exceeds that of ordinary people, he does not feel obvious fatigue even when driving long distances, but it is a bit boring, and he always feels that someone is missing in the passenger seat.

It will take a while to find a suitable person, but Lu Cheng is already thinking about whether he should buy a cat to raise later.

Following the navigation, when we drove all the way to Yunmiao Village, it was already three or four in the afternoon.

After arriving at the entrance of Yunmiao Village, Lu Cheng first called Xie Xiaochun, the person in charge of Youfeng Courtyard, and asked her to come out and answer the phone.

The village is paved with cobblestone roads, and there are steps and gatehouses in many places, making it inconvenient for traffic.

Not long after the call was made, a woman in her twenties, wearing a white T-shirt inside and a blue shirt outside, ran out from the village entrance.

"This must be Mr. Lu, right? Welcome to Yunmiao Village. I am Xie Xiaochun from Youfeng Courtyard."

"Hello, where do you think is convenient for parking? I'd like to trouble you to show me the way." Lu Cheng said as he opened the passenger door.

Xie Xiaochun looked up and down at the G-Class before getting on the passenger seat: "Turn right at the intersection ahead, then turn left..."

In order to accommodate tourists, a parking lot was specially built near the entrance of the village. But Lu Cheng's car needed to be parked here for a long time, so he naturally had to find a suitable place. When he arrived at the parking lot, Lu Cheng parked the car, and Xie Xiaochun hurried down to help move the luggage.

Lu Cheng did carry a lot of things in the car, including his own things, as well as some things he helped Chen Nanxing and Xu Hongdou bring.

Walking on the stone road and passing through the quaint alleys, I came to the gate of a farmhouse. As soon as I entered the yard, I saw a middle-aged man in his forties sitting cross-legged in meditation under a parasol in the yard.

Seeing Lu Cheng looking at that person, Xie Xiaochun started to introduce him, "He is also a tenant of the courtyard. His name is Ma Qiushan. We all call him Master Ma. You don't have to worry about him. He meditates during the day and ignores people."

Lu Cheng nodded and walked in with Xie Xiaochun.

At this moment, a head suddenly popped out from the second floor. It was a young woman wearing a woolen sweater, with loose hair, and looking listless.

Lu Cheng smiled and nodded, and the woman immediately turned around and went back to the house.

Xie Xiaochun introduced: "That person is also a tenant of our courtyard. His name is Da Mai. He is quite introverted and usually stays at home. He usually doesn't go out."

Lu Cheng naturally knew some information about these two tenants.

Ma Qiushan was originally a successful man, doing business in Yanjing. When his business was at its peak, he had hundreds of employees and owned several floors of office buildings in Yanjing's bustling commercial district.

But later the business collapsed, and not only did he lose all the money he had earned, he also sold his house and car. After paying his employees' salaries, he was left with nothing. In the end, he came here to recuperate.

As for the girl with her hair loose, she is an online writer. Because her father does not support her job and her writing has not been going well recently, she came here to recuperate.

It can be said that every tenant who comes to Youfeng Xiaoyuan is a person with a story.

The two of them went up the stairs, and Xie Xiaochun introduced the situation to Lu Cheng: "Our small courtyard looks quite big, right? In fact, this is not one residential plot, but three. A few years ago, we integrated these three residential plots together and made a short-term rental homestay with a total of six rooms, which are now rented out.

In addition to the two tenants you just met, there is a bar singer and one who works in my coffee shop. The other tenant is also a girl who lives next door to you and has not arrived yet. By the way, she is also from Yanjing. "

Lu Cheng nodded: "I know this, we are together, but she is a day or two later than me."

"This is even more convenient. The minimum lease here is three months. If you want to continue renting after two months, just tell me in advance. There is a tea room downstairs, a shared kitchen, and a utility room. If you want to cook for yourself, it is also very convenient."

As he was talking, Xie Xiaochun had already opened the door and helped put the things in: "How about the room?"

Lu Cheng walked into the room and took a look. The room was quite big.

The houses here are all old-style buildings, with carved lattice wooden windows covered with window paper. They allow good light transmittance but poor sound insulation.

There are two or three rooms connected together. There is a big bed and a wardrobe on the east side, and the west half is filled with tables, chairs, benches and various furniture.

After Lu Cheng put his luggage away, Xie Xiaochun introduced Lu Cheng to the situation in the village, including where there were restaurants, cafes and so on.

After Lu Cheng put his luggage away, he did not rush to pack up. Instead, he walked around the village first and soon arrived at the restaurant that Xie Xiaochun mentioned, the Gesanghua Restaurant.

Due to its remote location, there are not many tourists in this village. The restaurants in the village close early. If you arrive late, they will be closed.

When Lu Cheng walked to the door of the store, he saw some fresh vegetables and ingredients placed at the door. The names of some dishes were written on them, such as: water lily soup, braised chicken, silver fish and so on.

There is only one chef and an aunt in her forties or fifties in the store. The aunt is both the store owner and a waitress, and it can be considered her own store.

"Hello, are you alone? What would you like to eat?"

"Just order a few of their signature dishes, plus this water lily soup."

"No problem, then I'll have some silver fish, braised chicken, and some soup. You may not be able to eat more."

"That's fine."

The food was quickly prepared and served on the table. Lu Cheng took a photo first and sent it to the small group of three people he had just created two days ago.

The three people in the group are naturally Lu Cheng, Xu Hongdou, and Chen Nanxing.

After sending the picture, Lu Cheng also added the text: "I have arrived in Yunmiao Village and am experiencing the local specialties, including this soup with a somewhat special name."

Chen Nanxing immediately replied: "We have packed our bags too. Our plane will land at 3pm tomorrow."

"No problem, I'll pick you up at the airport then."

Xu Hongdou also smiled back: "Thank you."

At this moment, Lu Cheng discovered that the old lady had not left and was staring at him.

"Young man, how about trying the food?"

Lu Cheng picked up the chopsticks, tasted it, and nodded: "Very good."

In fact, the taste can only be described as average, but it is more distinctive. Compared with what Lu Cheng had eaten before, it is really nothing.

But the aunt was very happy: "Young man, is this your first time here?"

Seeing Lu Cheng nod, the auntie continued, "Then you've come to the right place. Our store has been open for more than 20 years. All tourists who have been here have good things to say about it and will come again in the future. You are welcome to come often in the future."

"must."

After all, the village is not big, there are not many places to eat, and there is little room for choice. If you don’t come to these places, you can only go to the town.

A meal with two dishes and a soup cost less than 80 yuan, which is considered cheap.

In the evening, Lu Cheng packed his things, changed into clothes for night running, got up and left the village, running all the way towards the Erhai Lake.

The environment here is really good. Without the hustle and bustle of the big city, the night sky seems brighter. From time to time, there are a few barking of dogs in the village, and occasionally you can hear the sound of TV, talking, and children playing and fighting. It seems particularly harmonious.

Running on such a road, it seems that the whole person's pace is slowed down and the heart is much calmer.

The breeze was not dry and the temperature was just right. I jogged along the way, feeling the breeze blowing past my ears and hair, and I felt much more relaxed...
