Chapter 162 Climbing the Great Wall



Time flies, and the midterm exam is coming soon. It is also Wen Nuan’s first exam since she started college.

After entering university, although Wen Nuan chose a major that she had never studied in her previous life, her IQ was high enough for her to study easily. Her performance in the class was average, neither good nor bad, and she was quite satisfied with this.

Therefore, Wen Nuan could not be found in school when there were no classes. However, the midterm exam was coming soon, and Wen Nuan could not sit around any longer. So, when there were no classes, she followed Wang Xiaomei to the school library.

Several of Wang Xiaomei's good friends had already taken seats in the library. When they saw Wen Nuan and Wang Xiaomei come in, they quickly waved and called them over.

"Little sister, Sister Nuan, these are the books that can be used in our major. I came early, so I brought some extra books. If you can use them, just read these!" The person who spoke was a round-faced girl, who was also Wang Xiaomei's best friend. She was very lively and enthusiastic. Her name was Liu Zhenzhu.

"Thank you, little Zhenzhu!" Wen Nuan thanked with a smile.

Wang Xiaomei simply hugged Liu Zhenzhu's shoulders.

Since entering university, Wang Xiaomei has obviously become much more cheerful. At the beginning of the school year, she would follow Wen Nuan closely. Later, with Wen Nuan's encouragement, she began to make friends and act on her own. Her cheerful and lively personality made her popular in the class. In addition, when she was in the army, Wen Nuan's family provided her with good food. Wang Xiaomei did not lack nutrition at the most important stage of her development. Therefore, the girl now has fair skin and a slim figure, and is quite popular in the class.

However, the ones with whom he had the best relationship were only two little girls. One of them went out for something, and the other was Liu Zhenzhu.

After saying hello, Wen Nuan and Wang Xiaomei each found a book they needed and read it quietly.

Just like that, a week later, the midterm exam began smoothly.

After the exam, there is the May Day holiday, which happens to be last Saturday and Sunday, so I have three days off at once.

The Great Wall that I have always wanted to climb is now officially on my schedule!

The whole family, including the three excited little ones, got up early.

The Queen Mother was even earlier and had already baked 30 scallion pancakes and boiled 20 eggs. There were six kettles in the house, all filled with water.

Wen Nuan had previously begged the Queen Mother to make five backpacks, two large and three small, like those in later generations.

One backpack was filled with all the food, and the other backpack contained a large coarse cloth sheet and four water bottles.

As for the three small backpacks, they were prepared for the three little ones, each containing some cakes and candies.

Dad Wen and Father Wang each carried a large backpack, and the remaining two water bottles were given to Wen Nuan and Xiaomei Wang, one each.

Everything was ready, and everyone went out and took the bus to the Great Wall.

As for Xie Sufang's family, Lin Yiman and Wang Wenya, they agreed to meet at the foot of the Great Wall.

Wen Nuan and her friends had to change buses along the way, and it took almost an hour to reach the Great Wall.

Xie Sufang and her family have already arrived, and Lin Yiman and Wang Wenya are probably still on the way.

Wen Nuan took a look at the foot of the Great Wall and found the scenery quite nice, so everyone decided to play here first and wait for Lin Yiman and the others.

About half an hour later, Lin Yiman and Wang Wenya finally arrived.

"Why are you here so late?" Wen Nuan asked the two breathless people curiously.

"It's not Sister Wen Ya yet. Huhu, we have to wait for the donkey roll shop to open. Now it's too late," Lin Yiman supported her legs with her hands, bent over and panted.

"Hey, you guys don't know, his donkey rolls are so, so delicious, and they even have pea yellow," Wang Wenya was also breathless.

"Okay, both of you stop talking for now and catch your breath first!" Wen Nuan looked at the two people who were panting with amusement.

"Huff, huff, okay, let me catch my breath first," Lin Yiman said as she straightened up and leaned against the warmth.

When the others saw Lin Yiman and Wang Wenya coming, they also gathered around.

At this moment, Wang Wenya finally caught her breath. She took off the backpack that warmed her up and said, "Come on, fresh donkey rolls and pea yellow. They taste just right now. Let's eat some before we start climbing!"

After that, they started to distribute the cakes. The adults each got a piece of donkey rolls and a piece of pea yellow cakes. As it was considered dangerous to eat glutinous rice, the children only got one piece of pea yellow cakes each.

"This donkey roll is so delicious!"

"This pea yellow is even more delicious, delicate, pure, melts in your mouth, and tastes sweet, cool and refreshing. It's so delicious!"

Everyone gave the highest praise to the donkey rolls and pea yellow.

After eating and drinking, everyone packed up and started climbing the Great Wall.

There were old and young people in the group, and the remaining young people were all women who were not good at sports. Therefore, everyone did not pursue speed too much, but enjoyed the surrounding scenery while walking.

Especially Dad Wen, who directly started "Dad Wen's Little Forum" and told the children and Mr. and Mrs. Wang the origins of the Great Wall and some historical stories, which elicited bursts of "Oh, Ah, Wow" from the children. Especially the short stories told by Dad Wen, which were very fascinating and attracted other tourists. They kept cheering and asked Dad Wen to tell another one. Dad Wen was so happy that he drank a kettle of water. There was no other way, he had talked too much and his mouth was too dry!

Time passed quickly as they talked and laughed, and it was noon in the blink of an eye. Everyone found a spacious and clean beacon tower, spread out the old coarse cloth sheets, and started to eat lunch.

A few people work together to feed the younger ones first, and when feeding the children, the elders eat first. In this way, when the children have finished eating and the elders are full, they can watch the children while others eat.

After lunch and a short rest, they started climbing again.

We didn’t climb for long in the afternoon because the children couldn’t climb anymore and were all sleepy. In fact, the adults were also a little tired, so we discussed it and decided to go back.

On the way back, the children couldn't help but fall asleep one by one. Father Wang carried Zhuangzhuang on his back, father Wen carried Feifei on his back, Wen Nuan carried Xiuxiu on his back, and Zhang Hongliang carried Xiaxia on his back. The group walked slowly home.

"Alas, climbing the Great Wall this time, I didn't waste anything except my mother!" Wen Nuan, who had finally returned home, collapsed on the bed and said breathlessly, "I wasn't tired from climbing the Great Wall, but I was exhausted from carrying the little girl!"

"Come on, Xiuxiu is so light. Uncle Fugui and Uncle Wen carried Zhuangzhuang and Feifei on their backs and never did this to you," said Lin Yiman and Wang Wenya, who came back with them, rolling their eyes.

"That's right, we both want to recite it but haven't yet!" Wang Wenya also said.

"Okay then. I wish you all the best when you climb the Great Wall. Carry your babies on your back more often. Whoever is scared will be the puppy then!"

"You are the puppy!"

As they were talking, the three of them started to quarrel!

This trip to climb the Great Wall was a complete success. Although the babies ended up falling asleep, everyone was still very happy!
