Chapter 230 Arrival at the City
Chapter 230 Arrival at the City
The two restaurants in the town also started to renovate.
If the noodle shop is to be converted into a drink shop, it can be said that everything except the outer shell needs to be replaced, but for the large restaurant, this does not require such trouble.
Just renovate some old places and add some modern and novel elements.
Here, Jiang Ci and Lin Jingsheng are doing business and decoration at home.
Over there, Ye Wan and Lin Shan arrived at the provincial capital.
They arrived in the afternoon and first found an inn to stay in, waiting to go to the academy to see Lin Jingchen the next day.
There were special people driving the carriage, and they could sit or lie down in the carriage, and they didn't feel tired at all. So after putting their things in the inn, they went out for a walk around here. They had never been to the provincial capital, so it was quite novel to walk around the streets here.
When they see some gadgets they have never seen before, they stop by the shop to take a look, and buy them if they like them or think they are suitable.
Or if it’s a snack they’ve never seen before, the two of them will buy one to try.
Just as Jiang Ci said, our family is rich now and we should learn to enjoy it!
Ye Wan and Lin Shan were able to accept the changes in their food, clothing, housing and transportation during this year, thanks to Jiang Ci and Lin Jingsheng's frequent nagging in their ears.
"If you have money, you should eat delicious food; if you have money, you should wear beautiful clothes; if you have money, you should enjoy life!"
But they didn't say these words to their three children at home. Children have a very strong ability to accept new things.
If you say these non-positive words in front of children, I'm afraid they will be led astray.
At night, I had dinner in a crowded small restaurant. There were few people around me, but there were many people at his house, so the food must be delicious.
Ordered two signature dishes and one signature pancake.
When we were halfway through the meal, a group of people dressed as students came in from outside.
The waiter who just walked in greeted them warmly, "Here are some of you. It's time for a rest day."
"I'm taking a break. I came here as soon as I arrived at the city!"
This guy is quite cheerful.
They sat at a table next to Ye Wan and Lin Shan. After they ordered their dishes, the waiter served them tea.
The man in blue poured a cup of tea for each of the people sitting there. "Have some tea first. There are so many people here, and the food won't be served for a while."
The young man in yellow clothes who was drinking tea from the cup looked at the person opposite him and said, "It's all your fault. You couldn't recite such a simple thing, and the teacher kept you alone. Besides, our academy is so far away from here."
The boy said apologetically, "I will review in advance next time and make sure I can leave on time."
"Remember what you said."
Ye Wan watched them talking and chatted, and then asked, "Which academy are you from? It's a day off today."
"Tomorrow is a day off. We will come out after class in the afternoon. We are from Baichuan Academy."
What a coincidence!
"That's just in time. We came to the provincial capital to visit our son who is studying at Baichuan Academy."
Several people nearby also chatted with them enthusiastically, "What's your name? Tell us if we know you."
"Lin Jingchen."
A young man who didn't talk much said, "I know him. We were in the same class. Lin Jingchen is amazing, and the teacher likes him very much."
When people who took classes with them talked about Lin Jingchen, they would definitely blurt out these words.
"The academy is closed tomorrow. Uncle and aunt can ask Lin Jingchen to take you around the academy. Our academy is very big..."
These people were all very enthusiastic. Studying in Baichuan Academy was a proud thing in itself, and now that someone asked them about it, they started talking incessantly.
But after the food was served on their table, things became quiet. The two of them finished their meal, said hello and left.
"It looks like we've arrived just in time."
The next morning, they had breakfast at the inn where they were staying and then went out.
We bought cakes and other food on the street, and loaded the clothes we brought from home into the carriage and drove away.
Baichuan Academy was built halfway up a mountain. There were two roads leading up the mountain. From the bottom, there was a gravel road about ten meters long. To the left were steps paved with bluestone slabs, and to the right was a dirt road for horse-drawn carriages.
Both roads extend and bend to both sides, then form an arc and finally reach the gate of the academy.
The difference is that the arc of the stairs is smaller. After all, they are steps, and the slope is much greater than the road for carriages.
Moreover, if you look from the bottom of the mountain, the upper part of the road is facing the gate, which looks very beautiful and grand.
Today is a day off. Those who live in the city left last night. Those who did not leave but wanted to go to the city to buy things or have fun also left in the morning by horse carriage.
Therefore, when they reached the foot of the mountain, there was no one there.
Ye Wan looked around through the window, "Why is there no one here?"
"They don't have anything to do, and they won't leave the academy. There's nothing around here."
"Too."
Wu Jin outside said, "Then I will drive the carriage directly up."
When I arrived at the door, it was closed, but the door at the right corner was open. A man was sitting on the door frame, reading a book with great interest.
Hearing the noise of the carriage, he looked up, then put away the book in his hand, stretched and stood up.
"Who are you looking for?"
Ye Wan and Lin Shan got out of the carriage and said, "We are here to look for Lin Jingchen from Class A."
The man's clothes were all patched and he spoke in a nonchalant manner, but he became interested when he heard Lin Jingchen's name.
"Should we go in and look for him, or let him come out to see you?"
"Go in and take a look at this academy."
"Okay, I'll record it for you."
He went inside and ground the ink, "How many people are going in?"
"The two of us."
Wu Jin and Lin Shanma took the things out of the carriage, including a backpack and a basket.
The man called another person from the side, and he took them into the academy. He then took Wu Jin and the carriage to the carriage park.
The place where the carriage was parked was in the woods next to it.
Ye Wan and Lin Shan followed the leader, looking around from time to time.
There are students in this academy, unlike what you see outside where there is no one.
"Today is a holiday, and most of the students who are still in the academy are staying in their own courtyards or bedrooms. I will take you to see if Lin Jingchen is there first."
"Okay, thank you very much."
"It's nothing." After all, working here for a day during the holiday would earn a lot of money.
Ye Wan and Lin Shan were inspired by his words. How could he have his own courtyard? Did some students live in a courtyard of their own?
If that's the case, this academy is really grand!
