"Do you know Hulu Village?" It is said that small vendors are the most well-informed.
In the evening, Song Jinxiu did not go to the shops to eat, but ate snacks at various small stalls.
"I've heard of it, it's the small gourd!" The boss didn't stop and continued to make his snacks.
"A big gourd!" said Song Jinxiu.
"Speaking of the Big Gourd, the scenery inside is incredibly beautiful, but the road leading into the mountain is difficult to navigate. The road bends and twists, so it's best not to go in if you don't know anyone in the village."
The boss glanced at him. "Young people, if you want to have fun, just go to town. Or go to the Little Gourd. It's too much trouble to go to the Big Gourd just to see the scenery."
"Yeah, you also said that its scenery is beautiful! I heard that it has beautiful scenery too.
"It's said that if you come to Qingshui Town and don't go to Hulu Mountain, it would be a wasted trip. Is that true?" Song Jinxiu asked again.
"Hey, that's just to scare you outsiders. If you want beautiful scenery, Qingshui Town is beautiful everywhere.
The Guanyin Temple and Shapu Village both have beautiful scenery.”
"Boss, give me two servings of radish." Someone came to buy something and interrupted the conversation between the two.
"Come here, take the radish!" The boss did not continue the topic after being interrupted.
Song Jinxiu didn't mention it again, as it would seem too deliberate!
Next, Song Jinxiu asked several small vendors, and they all said that Dahulu Village was beautiful.
However, the road is too difficult to walk on, so it is not recommended to take the risk just to see the scenery.
This made Song Jinxiu very curious.
Has the beauty of the big gourd been spread so early?
"What are you doing?" The next day, Song Jinxiu went to find her landlord.
"I'm watching the shop! How come you have time to come here?" The young landlord was eating melon seeds boredly.
"I don't want to go to Dahulu Village. Do you have any way?" Song Jinxiu asked.
"Cough, cough, cough!" Who would have thought that when the young landlord heard Song Jinxiu's words, he was choked by the melon seeds and started coughing violently.
"Are you okay?" Song Jinxiu quickly handed her the cup on the table.
I had to drink several sips of water to suppress my cough.
"Why are you going to Dahulu Village for no reason?" asked the landlord.
"Why are you reacting so strongly? Can't we go to Dahulu Village?" Song Jinxiu looked at the other party suspiciously.
"Not really, it's just that the terrain of Dahulu Village is steep and most people don't know about it. How did you know?" asked the young landlord.
"Do you believe me when I say we can go inside to see the scenery?" Song Jinxiu said.
The landlord looked at him with an expression as if to say, "Are you stupid?"
"Okay, okay, actually I wanted to find someone! How I knew it was because that person told me." Song Jinxiu said half-truthfully.
"Oh, if you really want to go, it's not impossible." The landlord thought for a moment.
"I'll ask my dad later if he wants to go. He's an old hand.
Let me tell you, most people don't dare to go down that mountain road, so you should be prepared for the price."
"Okay, then you can ask for me." As for the price, that depends on what price you offer.
"What do you want to ask me?" a thin man walked out of the door and asked.
"Dad, this person is our tenant. She wants to go to Dahulu Village to look for someone and wants to ask if you want to go with her." The young landlord asked when he saw the person coming.
"It's really strange that someone is looking for someone in Dahulu Village. Have you figured it out, my dear? Is it Xiaohulu Village?" The old man looked at Song Jinxiu and asked.
"It's Dahulu Village!" Song Jinxiu shook her head and said.
"You can go if you want. 20,000 yuan for your round trip, no bargaining." said the little old man.
"Don't think it's too expensive. I went to Dahulu Village a few years ago to buy you a round trip on the same day.
If it were someone else, you would probably have to stay in the mountains for a night before coming back."
"Okay, can we set off tomorrow morning?" Song Jinxiu said after thinking for a while.
Go and check out the situation early, you won't find out anything just by asking.
And no matter where I go, people always ask me where I come from and where I'm going.
"Sure. By the way, there is an unwritten rule in Big Gourd. No matter what you do in the village, you must prepare four snacks and two candies to show your sincerity." said the little old man.
"Is there any particular requirement for the quantity of things?" Song Jinxiu asked.
"It's not that particular. But people don't lack this little thing. If young people need help from others, don't try to fool them. The more sincere you are, the better the other party's attitude will be." said the old man.
"Thank you for your advice, uncle!" Song Jinxiu nodded and thanked him.
When she returned home in the evening, Song Jinxiu carefully selected four kinds of cakes and two kinds of candies and packed them.
Waiting for tomorrow's visit, success or failure depends on this one.
The next day, at dawn, the landlord knocked on the door.
"Why so early?" Song Jinxiu asked, rubbing her eyes.
"The mountain road is difficult to walk on. We have to set off early. It will be too late when we get to Dahulu." said the landlord.
"Okay, please let your uncle wait for me, I'll be there soon." Song Jinxiu quickly washed up and walked towards the landlord's residence.
Apart from the gift bag, she only had her floral bag and a water bottle.
Song Jinxiu is now used to carrying a bag when she goes out, and occasionally she wants to take some small gadgets with her to hide her identity.
On the way, Song Jinxiu bought a few meat buns and gave half to the landlord.
The landlord didn't hesitate and just took it and started eating.
"You'd better buy a few more steamed buns so you won't be hungry on the way back," said the uncle.
"Ah, is it that exaggerated?" Song Jinxiu looked at the uncle in confusion.
"Ha!" The uncle didn't say much, that was all he had to say.
Song Jinxiu still bought a few more steamed buns.
