Chapter 26： boat

"Very good, I walked around the town today." Xu Chengyan smiled, "There is also a temple here, I'm going to visit tomorrow."

Xu Chengyan said again: "By the way, I'm not sure when I'll be back, why don't I send you the stamps tomorrow?"

"It's okay, I'm not in a hurry." Jiang Lin said quickly, "If my sister-in-law is ready to come back, just tell me, and I'll pick you up!"

"good."

After hanging up, Xu Chengyan put the stamp on the table and went to rest first.

The next morning, Xu Chengyan woke up early and sent a message to Qin Zhou, preparing to go to the temple.

Before departure, Xu Chengyan prepared snacks and water, and went out with a backpack.

The two gathered at the pier. When Xu Chengyan passed by, Qin Zhou was already waiting there.

Qin Zhou also carried a bag, and when he saw Xu Chengyan, he quickly waved his hand.

Xu Chengyan passed by, and the two walked towards the foot of the mountain together.

"Little boss, there is a shortcut here, you can go directly to the foot of the mountain." Qin Zhou took Xu Chengyan to a shortcut and walked through various alleys.

Not long after, the two came to the foot of the mountain.

And because there are fewer tourists in the town recently, there are even fewer people who come to climb the mountain in the morning.

Qin Zhou walked in front and warned: "Boss, be careful, this road is a bit steep."

It was already more than nine o'clock in the morning, and the sun came out.

Xu Chengyan was a little hot from the sun, so he stopped first, took off his jacket, put it in his backpack, and continued to walk up.

But just as he passed a corner, Xu Chengyan accidentally stepped on the air and fell to the side.

"Little boss!" Qin Zhou on the side quickly stretched out his hand and grabbed Xu Chengyan's arm, but it was too late to bring him back, and he was thrown down together.

Fortunately, the two fell on the grass. Qin Zhou quickly helped Xu Chengyan up and asked, "Is the little boss okay?"

Xu Chengyan got up, patted the grass leaves on his body, and replied, "It's okay."

Qin Zhou also helped to pat Xu Chengyan's clothes. When he raised his hand inadvertently, he found that his watch was broken.

Qin Zhou was stunned for a moment, then withdrew his hand and took off his watch to examine it carefully.

Xu Chengyan also saw Qin Zhou's actions and asked, "What's wrong?"

Xu Chengyan leaned over and found that the dial was broken.

Qin Zhou fiddled with the watch for a while, and found that the pointer had never been understood, so he replied: "It's probably broken."

Qin Zhou put the watch in his pocket at will, ready to continue walking up.

Xu Chengyan simply took off his watch and said to Qin Zhou, "You can use my watch first."

Qin Zhou looked at it and said quickly: "Little boss, this is quite precious..."

Qin Zhou doesn't understand watches, but the little boss looks better dressed and has fair skin. At first glance, he looks like a city person, and the workmanship of this mechanical watch is also very delicate, which is estimated to be quite expensive.

"It's okay." Xu Chengyan looked at the watch and said lightly, "It's worthless."

This watch was a birthday present from his husband, but he later learned that Shen Xiuzhu had an identical one.

It's not worth anything anyway.

Just a substitute.

Xu Chengyan: "You should wear it temporarily, I don't look at my watch very much."

"Thank you boss then!" Qin Zhou no longer refused, took the watch and put it on.

The two continued to walk up the mountain, but the sun was getting more and more dry, so Xu Chengyan had to block the sun with his hands.

When Qin Zhou saw it, he suddenly thought of something. He rummaged through his backpack, took out a black hat from the corner, and quickly gave it to Xu Chengyan: "Little boss, why don't you wear this hat!"

Xu Chengyan asked, "Don't you wear it?"

"I resist the sun!" Qin Zhou squinted and smiled, "I'm used to sunbathing anyway."

Xu Chengyan put on a hat with the brim blocking the sun, which made him feel better.

Not long after, the two had come to the temple.

The temple is a little deserted, and there is a prayer tree in the yard.

There were a lot of blessing wooden signs hanging on the wishing tree. Xu Chengyan looked at the wooden signs and couldn't help but stop and take a look.

Seeing that Xu Chengyan seemed to be interested in the blessing tree, Qin Zhou pointed to a place next to him and said, "The little boss can write blessings over there."

Xu Chengyan went over and bought a wooden sign from the staff.

In addition to the wooden sign, there is a small table next to it, where there is a pen and ink, so that tourists can write their own blessings, or they can let the staff write them on their behalf.

Xu Chengyan wanted to write by himself, so he sat on the chair next to him, holding a pen.

The nib of the pen was hanging above the wooden sign, Xu Chengyan thought about it for a long time, and finally only wrote seven words—

[May Mr. be safe every year]

After writing the blessing, Xu Chengyan looked at the wooden sign, still a little dazed.

Visitors can hang the wooden sign on the tree or take it back with them.

However, Xu Chengyan didn't hang it up in the end, just put the wooden sign in the bag as a souvenir.

The two stayed in the temple for a while and then went down the mountain.

Going down the mountain is from another road. When Xu Chengyan was going down, he saw a road outside.

Looking down this road, one side is the town, and the other side is connected to the countryside.

"That's the countryside over there." Qin Zhou pointed to the distance. "The countryside is full of old people, and the younger ones all go to work outside, or come to town."

The tourism business in the ancient town here is good, but the countryside is still relatively backward, and there are not many people in the countryside.

And just when the two were about to return to town, Qin Zhou suddenly noticed a figure not far from the road, and quickly said: "Little boss, wait for me, I'll have a few words with my grandma."

Xu Chengyan responded and saw Qin Zhou running to the side.

On the side of the road, an elderly woman was dragging a sack, picking up plastic bottles on the ground and putting them into the sack one by one.

"Grandma! Why did you come out suddenly!" Qin Zhou said anxiously, "Grandma, go back first."

The old woman ignored her and just hunched over and continued to pick up plastic bottles.

"Grandma, go back!" Qin Zhou took the old woman's arm and tried to bring her back.

The old woman still ignored Qin Zhou until she raised her head after picking up the bottle, and when she was about to leave, she suddenly saw a young man not far away.

The young man was tall and thin and wore a black hat.

The old woman quickly broke free from the person beside her and staggered towards the young man.

"Xiaozhou..." The old woman came to Xu Chengyan, grabbed Xu Chengyan's arm, and said excitedly, "Xiaozhou is back..."

Xu Chengyan was stunned for a moment, and looked at Qin Zhou subconsciously.

Qin Zhou hurried over and said to Xu Chengyan, "I'm sorry, little boss, my grandma has Alzheimer's, so it's easy to recognize the wrong person..."

Qin Zhou supported the old woman and explained in a low voice, "Grandma, I am Xiaozhou!"

But the old woman just continued to pull Xu Chengyan as if she didn't hear Qin Zhou's words, "Xiaozhou..."

Qin Zhou was a little anxious, afraid that the little boss would be angry, so he slightly increased his tone: "Grandma, go back!"

The old woman looked at Xu Chengyan, took out a small cloth bag in the pocket of her coat, slowly opened the cloth bag, and took out a small portion of **** candy, "Grandma bought it for you..."

"Candy..." The old woman carefully handed the **** candy to Xu Chengyan, "Xiaozhou eats candy..."
