The old lady made her own lunch, three kinds of shredded pork with Beijing sauce. There was also a pot tenderloin. Plus a cold purple heart radish.
This David is extremely interested in Chinese food. One person can eat as much as Ye Yuze and three of them.
After dinner, Ye Yuze asked the old man for details, and then he realized that the old man belonged to the first group of capitalists who formed a public-private partnership.
Later, he received some influence and stayed on a farm in Hebei for a few years. He has two children. The eldest son belongs to the 22nd Corps, in the Tarim area.
However, during a storm, the sheep that ran away to return to their cage accidentally fell into the river. When they were found a few days later, they had been washed more than a hundred kilometers downstream.
Therefore, he stayed in the land of Northern Xinjiang forever.
When my daughter was a teenager, she went to the United States with her relatives to study, and then married an American. She had no contact with her for more than 20 years.
When Mr. Zheng went to Northern Xinjiang, he had just returned from the farm.
The daughter contacted him through someone from the consulate. Because she was in poor health, she asked her son to come to China to visit them. She also wanted to take them abroad to visit them.
The old couple were very excited when they found out that their daughter was still there. They also knew that she was in poor health and wanted to fly to the United States immediately.
It's just that going abroad was a very troublesome thing in those days. The foreign affairs department actively cooperated and accompanied them throughout the process to go through various procedures.
Now I have an idea, but it will take some time to get the visa.
After dinner, Ye Yuze will go to Peking University to find Wang Honghua and the others.
David was not very interested in watching over the old couple at home, so he had to go with Ye Yuze.
The old couple saw that the two of them were companions, so they were naturally relieved. Let them play as they pleased and come back for dinner in the evening.
As soon as I went out, I happened to meet the middle-aged man named Liu coming with his driver.
Ye Yuze had an idea and borrowed a car from someone else.
How could a middle-aged man agree? But David greatly appreciated the idea and followed up with a request.
This time the middle-aged man couldn't hold on any longer. After all, he was an international friend.
Since Nixon's visit to China, the relations between China and the United States have been relatively stable and developing towards friendly relations. Now that an international friend is making such a request, he cannot bear it.
After much hesitation, they had no choice but to ask the driver to give them the car. Then he went into the yard to accompany Mr. and Mrs. Zheng.
David can drive, but because the traffic rules in the United States are to drive on the left and the steering wheel is in the wrong position, he let Ye Yuze drive.
Ye Yuze didn't refuse, he lit the fire and ran towards Peking University.
When they arrived at the gate, the guard didn't stop him. Ye Yuze drove the car all the way to the bottom of Wang Honghua's dormitory building.
At this time, the girls happened to come out one after another. They were going to class.
When they saw a car, many people looked around curiously, and some pointed and talked about something.
Ye Yuze and David didn't get out of the car and looked in the direction of the crowd. He didn't know if Wang Honghua was in the dormitory. After all, that girl liked to hang out in the library.
After a while, I saw Wang Honghua and Zha Hongying walking over together, and there were two girls beside them. Naturally, they were people from the same dormitory.
Zha Hongying kept turning her head to stare at the car and said to Wang Honghua:
"I don't know which young man brought dad's car to the school. Wouldn't it be great if he could take us for a spin?"
Before she finished speaking, the car door was suddenly opened. A voice came out:
"Okay, come up then. I'll take you wherever you go!"
Several women were startled. Zha Hongying put on a stern face and was about to reprimand, but suddenly realized that the speaker was Ye Yuze. She jumped forward happily.
"Yuze Yuze, why is it you? Where did you get the car?"
Wang Honghua also looked at him with surprise.
At this time, the door on the other side of the car opened. A bear-like figure came out.
"Hey, there's me too!"
It turned out that David was dissatisfied with being ignored and got out of the car to say hello.
Looking at this strange-looking big man, several women looked wary.
Wang Honghua was more experienced and asked.
"Yuze, who is he?"
Ye Yuze couldn't explain this matter in one or two sentences, so he just said directly that he was my friend!
He saw Ye Yuze and then the car. Zha Hongying, who was still thinking about class, pulled Wang Honghua and was about to get in the car.
Wang Honghua hesitated. After all, the university courses at that time were relatively tight and not as lax as later generations.
At this time, the eldest sister who borrowed the car from Cha Hongying last time came over. She had met Ye Yuze.
"Is Wang Honghua's brother here again?"
Ye Yuze said hello quickly. "Hello, sister, I'm going to Tianjin City for business. I plan to return to Xinjiang tomorrow. I'll come to see my sister today."
The eldest sister thought for a moment and said, "Don't leave in a hurry. It's not easy to come to the capital. Take a good rest and have fun."
Then he turned to Wang Honghua and said, "Just play with your brother for two days. I will give you the class notes later, and I will ask for leave from the teacher."
Wang Honghua agreed gratefully. "Thank you, monitor!"
The woman waved her hand: "Why are you so polite? We are all classmates, go ahead and have a good time!"
Zha Hongying pulled Wang Honghua into the car and waved back to the squad leader.
"Thank you monitor for helping us ask for leave!"
The woman stood there stunned for a long time and said to herself:
"Isn't he Wang Honghua's younger brother? Why did Zha Hongying run away too? Why is she thanking me?"
A few young people got into the car like birds whose cage had been removed, chattering endlessly.
If the people of Northern Xinjiang are a people on horseback, then David is a people in cars.
As soon as he got in the car, he couldn't get out of the car. He didn't have a good time when he went to Jin City last time. He didn't know anyone and he didn't have a car.
Now that he has a car and two beauties accompanying him, this small capital cannot accommodate him.
"Ye Yuze, let's go to a distant place! It's not fun here!"
Obviously, this guy is not very interested in those buildings with red walls and blue tiles.
Now that he is out, Ye Yuze also wants to go shopping. Because he doesn't know when he will come to the capital next time?
After thinking for a moment, he asked Zha Hongying, "Do you know where Badaling is?"
Zha Hongying nodded, pointed to a road and said:
“Just follow this road out of the city and keep driving!”
Ye Yuze nodded, stepped on the accelerator, and the car started speeding.
Don't worry about car accidents. There were few cars on the streets at that time. Even the bicycle wave had not yet appeared!
The sixty-kilometer journey was just a matter of a few taps of the accelerator. When we arrived at the foot of Badaling, David was dumbfounded.
On top of the majestic mountain top, a city wall like a jade belt stands tall. There are many legends about Badaling.
Cha Hongying told her what she knew.
It is named after the homophonic pronunciation of "Badaling". Because of the stacked mountains and steep terrain in this area, it is said that the Great Wall built here had to make eight turns and cross eight large mountains.
It was very difficult to build this section of the Great Wall at that time. The construction period was delayed and eight supervisors died for it.
Finally, through the enlightenment of the immortal, the "Eight Methods of Building a City" were adopted, namely "a tiger wears a bridle and a sheep carries a saddle on its back, a swallow carries a mud monkey on its shoulders, a turtle carries stones and a rabbit leads the way, and a magpie builds a bridge built on ice."
The construction materials were transported to the mountains. So people called this section of the Great Wall the "Badaling Great Wall."
