Love is like a dream

Xiao Zhen wore a loose navy blue wide-leg skirt, and her fat trouser legs made the wind blow when she walked. I laughed that she could blow away the dirt on the ground when she walked over, and she wore a loose linen gown with flowers on her upper body. , she secretly likes to wear some loose and casual clothes, either simple jeans or skirts, and I do the same, no makeup, simple dark jeans and a chiffon white lace top.

We took a taxi to Luoguxiang, which is a typical and well-known hutong in Beijing. If it is afternoon and evening, there will be a lot of people. We chose the morning, and there are not many tourists. Occasionally, there are two or three in twos. We even rented two. bikes.In Beijing in early autumn, there is a high and deep blue sky, and the breeze blowing slowly, people feel very comfortable, we ride slowly in the narrow alleys, we rarely have the opportunity to ride a bicycle, the technology is really unfamiliar Very, he was riding crookedly. Fortunately, there were few people, so he would not bump into others.

The buildings here deliberately maintain the style of old Beijing. They are all old-fashioned courtyard houses with blue brick walls and red doors. The shops on the street are also in this style. In the alley, there are many very unique ones. We all like small shops selling such weird things, and we can’t stop shopping. She also bought a strange and funny little clay figurine, and I bought a golden one. Antique bracelet.

We went to a small shop selling ethnic costumes, which were filled with all kinds of headscarves, long skirts, hats, and shoes, which were basically hand-embroidered items with bright colors and complicated patterns. I don't really like colorful clothes, so I just looked at them casually. Xiao Zhen seemed quite interested, and bought a colorful long scarf.

There is a small drink shop on the side of the street. I went to buy a glass of taro milk and a glass of papaya milk. Xiao Zhen ordered the one with papaya and tasted it: "The taste of papaya is a little weak, not as good as Taiwan's."

Me: "The authentic Taiwanese taste is written on the signboard!"

Xiao Zhen: "Hahaha, it's a pity to meet me, a more authentic Taiwanese!"

I stretched my head to taste her papaya milk, and it tasted good. Maybe it’s because I don’t like papaya very much, and I haven’t tasted any flavor from Taiwan. There is no comparison. I love anything with taro flavor. , is a taro control.

Me: "Try mine, it's very fragrant."

She stretched her head and took a sip: "Mmm! Indeed, I don't want to drink papaya milk anymore, I want to change it with you!"

Me: "Okay, I will let you, sister fairy, but papaya breast enhancement, don't regret it."

She straightened her breasts: "There is no need to get fat anymore, you will change with me soon, you definitely don't want to change with me, haha!"

She saw through my little thoughts at once, so I had no choice but to admit defeat, and reluctantly exchanged the taro milk in my hand for papaya milk with her.

We pushed our bicycles and walked forward slowly, when we were suddenly attracted by the sound of a distant flute. It turned out that there was an ocarina commune in front of us, which sold ocarinas. I remember buying one when I went out to play a few years ago, but I didn’t know it later. You can’t find it wherever you throw it. The sound of this ocarina is very unique, with a muffled rustling feeling. It’s not as crisp as a bamboo flute, nor as penetrating as a flute, but it sounds soft and mysterious. , has a very long sense of history and simplicity.

Perhaps because of his sensitivity to music, Xiao Zhen was quickly attracted and bought a small light blue ocarina that could be hung around his neck. A piece of music, this woman... Really... My musical ability is really far behind her. After trying for a while, I can only remember a few pronunciations.

Going forward, I came to a shop selling cheese. Xiao Zhen asked, "What is cheese? Youku milk?"

Me: "It's just... How to describe it, it tastes thicker like solidified milk, with a thick milky aroma, and the texture and shape are like soft tofu. Oh, it's delicious anyway, what do you want? What flavor?"

Xiaozhen looked at the mango, strawberry, condensed milk, pineapple, and red bean flavors on the signboard... she was worried, and after thinking about it for a long time, she finally pointed to the original flavor. I asked for a mango flavor, and when I got it, I found the above It was jam, I thought it would be fresh mango, but the mango taste was quite strong, but the jam was a bit too sweet.

Me: "Xiao Zhen, give me a taste of your original taste."

She dug a spoonful and put it into my mouth. It has a thick milky aroma and a smooth taste. It is not so sweet and greasy, and it tastes good.

Xiao Zhen: "Is the mango delicious?"

I dug a spoonful for her, and she tasted it: "It's too sweet, but my original taste is delicious, don't change it with me!"

Next, we visited the nearby Juer Hutong, Maoer Hutong, Heizhima Hutong, Shajing Hutong, Beibingmasi Hutong, Dongmianchang Hutong, etc., and saw Feng Guozhang’s old house, Wanrong’s former residence, Wenyu’s house, and Dabeizi Mansion. , Qi Baishi's former residence, Gu Mengyu's former residence and many other former residences of celebrities.

In the quiet alleys, there are preserved towering ancient trees that are hundreds of years old. Some old houses also have mighty stone lions and ancient copper nails and knockers on the doors. The atmosphere is full of history and simplicity.

Xiao Zhen also asked me curiously: "Did all the people who lived here in ancient times be high-ranking officials?"

Me: "There are high-ranking officials, but there are also celebrities and rich people."

Xiao Zhen: "Then the house price here is very expensive."

Me: "I don't know in ancient times, but of course it is now. A courtyard may exceed ten million."

Xiao Zhen: "Wow, it's scary, a house in downtown Taipei isn't that expensive!"

Me: "Haha, yes! It's not something ordinary people can afford. Let's go. Are you hungry? Go eat?"

Xiao Zhen: "I'm already hungry, Smelly Jasmine won't give me anything to eat, I want something delicious."

Me: "There is a very distinctive pizza shop nearby, would you like to try it?"

She wondered for a moment: "Pizza? What's special about it?"

Me: "Kung Pao chicken, fish-flavored shredded pork, roast duck pizza, have you tried it?"

Xiao Zhen: "No... would this be delicious?"

Me: "I don't know, let's try it?"

Xiao Zhen: "Okay, okay, let's go!"

Riding a bicycle is actually very fast. It only takes a few minutes to walk through an alley, and I soon arrived at the small shop. At noon, there were not many people here, and there were no private rooms. I was a little worried about Xiaozhen. But she generously said that it doesn't matter, you can find a seat facing away from the outside, and I reminded her to put on the mask first.

Fortunately, there was a seat for two in the corner with poor lighting, and it was not near the window, so there was no seat, so we sat in this seat. I sat in the one facing the outside, and she sat in the one with her back facing the outside. Looking at the surrounding environment, there are green plants and a wall blocking it, which is very hidden, so I feel relieved.
