meet by chance

Zhou Linye didn't have the habit of sleeping in late, so he woke up naturally around six o'clock.

After simply washing up, I went downstairs and strolled in the nearby streets.

It was still early, most of the shops had just opened their doors, the sky was foggy, and the overcast clouds were pressing down on the 30-storey buildings, but it didn't make people breathless, because there were only a few buildings in this small town, and there were green green hills behind them.

I entered the breakfast shop and ordered a steaming bowl of wontons.

Zhou Linye planned today's itinerary while eating.

He arrived in the small town the day before yesterday, set up a street stall to sell paintings yesterday, and is about to start his trip today.

Go for a stroll in the street first to feel the local customs, and it’s not too late to go in the afternoon. Zhou Linye can almost imagine that the hype of the purple flower sea is just a few lavender plants planted in a palm-sized place. The gimmick that attracted him was nothing more than Sculpture a portrait of Cupid.

On the way here, Zhou Linye took a look at the surrounding cities by the way. There is an ancient city in the neighboring county, with genuine wooden houses lined up. However, due to insufficient publicity, there are other local industries that support economic development, and they don’t pay much attention to it. Tourists are relatively rare. .

If nothing unexpected happens, Zhou Linye will leave this small town tomorrow.

After going out the door, a gap was opened in the gray sky, and white sunlight burst out from the turbid clouds, which was a sign that it was going to be sunny.

Thinking of the heavy rain in the weather forecast today, I have to feel that it really is a different day.

The small town has a unique culture, tie-dye.

Zhou Linye planned to experience it in the morning.

Yesterday when I was setting up a street stall to sell paintings, I saw an old lady selling them on the side of the road. The patterns were simple and rich in color, and there were a few horses that turned green because they were not completely oxidized. They looked like old craftsmen. Zhou Linye just wanted to ask about it. , the grandma has gone.

Zhou Linye turned a few corners and came to the place where the grandmother was selling cloth yesterday to try his luck.

Fortunately, the old lady is still there.

There was a motorcycle standing next to the old lady. A tall and tall young man was helping the old lady remove the cloth from the back seat, helped the old lady arrange the small chair, and spread the cloth carefully on the folding table.

The grandma was smiling the whole time.

This figure was somewhat familiar, Zhou Linye took a closer look, hey, isn't this the same Xu Zhou from yesterday!

"Hey, what a coincidence?!"

Zhou Linye took the initiative to say hello, Xu Zhou nodded slightly and asked, "Why are you here?"

"When I passed by here yesterday, I saw that these cloths are very beautiful, so I thought of coming over to have a look."

Zhou Linye squatted down while talking, looking at the cloth which is not considered delicate.

"I'll take my grandma over."

Xu Zhou turned off the motorcycle, squatted down, and accompanied Zhou Linye to choose.

"Grandma, did you dye this yourself?"

Grandma was probably old and her hearing was not very good. She looked at Xu Zhou in a daze, and asked Zhou Linye what he said in a little embarrassment.

Zhou Linye repeated with a smile.

Grandma smiled and nodded, saying yes repeatedly.

Grandma lost all her teeth, and she smiled very kindly and kindly.

Zhou Linye picked three horses and only spent 75 yuan. Zhou Linye wanted to get another horse to save change, but Xu Zhou transferred 25 yuan to him in a flash.

Xu Zhou's mobile phone is very new, as if it has just been opened.

Zhou Linye pursed his lips inwardly, and gave up the idea of ​​choosing another horse.

"Grandma, I'll pick you up in the afternoon." Xu Zhou took out an old man's phone from his grandma's pocket, "Don't forget to call me if you need something."

Xu Zhou taught his grandma to make a call, "Press this button first, I am the first number."

Grandma listened very seriously, "I understand, I understand, you should go to school."

"Then grandma, I'm leaving first. Remember to call if you have something to do. You must call, remember?" Xu Zhou asked worriedly.

"Okay, okay." Feeling the care of the grandson, grandma's happiness is beyond words.

Xu Zhou inserted the key, started the motorcycle, and looked at Zhou Linye, "Where are you going? I'll see you off."

"I'm going to the sea of ​​purple flowers, shouldn't it be on my way?"

"Come up."

Zhou Linye didn't shirk any more, and got on the motorcycle.

"Hey, you don't go to school?"

It's already nine o'clock, whose school starts morning reading at nine o'clock!

The sound of the wind blew past the ears, and the two rows of green plants retreated wildly, and Xu Zhou's voice fell into Zhou Linye's ears mixed with the whistling wind.

"Didn't the college entrance examination end long ago? My grandma doesn't remember anything."

"Oh." Zhou Linye didn't question this.

He himself was after the college entrance examination, booked a plane ticket without saying a word, and then ran around.

"I'll take you down the path."

Zhou Linye didn't react, "Ah? What do you mean?"

Xu Zhou didn't want to explain too much, "literally."

Xu Zhou parked his motorcycle in a remote and tangled grass.

A man-made path spreads upwards.

There are no roads in the world, and when more people walk, it becomes a road.

Zhou Linye swallowed.

Xu Zhou stared at Zhou Linye with a smile on his face, "Up this road, there is a sea of ​​purple flowers. Do you want to go?"

Zhou Linye was a little angry, so he couldn't go the normal way?

"Why do you have to go here?"

Xu Zhou didn't answer this question, turned around and set foot on this path.

Zhou Linye gritted his teeth and followed.

"I thought you would just turn around and leave." Xu Zhou said.

Zhou Linye said out of breath, "This is quite exciting."

"You think the stimulating method is quite special. Why, have you never escaped the ticket before?"

Zhou Linye thought about it carefully, and answered earnestly, "I escaped once. When I got on the bus, it was too crowded. When I got on the bus from the back door, when I asked the passengers to help insert coins, the money disappeared without knowing who it was passed on to." Well, it didn’t end up in the coin box anyway.”

"Oh, the driver didn't notice?"

"With so many people, what can we find?" Zhou Linye shook his head.

"Hey, do you often do this?"

Zhou Linye asked curiously.

"Not counting."

"Huh?" What an ambiguous answer.

"It's these scenic spots related to the scenery. I think they are similar to the mountains I climbed and the fields I stayed in when I was a child. Why spend so much money?"

"Then it seems that you were quite happy when you were a child?" Zhou Linye replied.

"Can you be happy without restraint?"

Xu Zhou slowed down calmly, and Zhou Linye followed him just right.

"arrive."

The fence is perfunctorily staggered, and one can enter by turning sideways.

Zhou Linye was speechless.

After entering with Xuzhou, the sparse lavender spreads on both sides of the gravel road at first, and the more you walk in, the more dense the lavender becomes. As soon as the wind blows, the rippling purple will blend with the clear blue sky, romantic and slightly drunk The sunshine makes people drown in this gentle world.

The artistic conception also echoes the flower language of lavender: waiting for love.

"It's better than I imagined."

Zhou Linye's pertinent evaluation.

Xu Zhou looked around without any wavering in his eyes, "Well, it looks good."

"Tsk, come on, I'm curious about your real thoughts."

Xu Zhou hesitated, "I think it's just the color difference from the rapeseed field."

"Hahahahahahaha, that's true!" Zhou Linye liked Xu Zhou's down-to-earth rhetoric, "Let's go and see Cupid."

Cupid is set up in front of the main gate of Huahai, and most of the people who come to take pictures are young couples.

In addition to the large number of people, the difference from online photos may be that there is one less filter added.

Zhou Linye turned on his mobile phone and sent the portrait he drew last night to the person in charge, who immediately sent the link for free tickets.

At this time, Zhou Linye, who was already in the sea of ​​purple flowers, put his phone back in his pocket.

"Let's go, it doesn't really mean anything."

"it is good."

This time, he didn't sneak out from the small path, but walked out through the main entrance openly.

After detouring a few remote paths, I found Xuzhou's motorcycle, "Let's go, get in the car, where else do you want to go, I'll take you."

"Is there anything else interesting here?" Zhou Linye asked.

Xu Zhou racked his brains to think, but couldn't think of a good place, so he said with some regret, "No."

Zhou Linye regretted it for two seconds, as if he thought of something randomly, his eyes lit up, "What is your special dish here, show me a taste?"

"Row."
