Online dating across time and space

In the south in April, the scenery is just right.

On a bright afternoon, the villagers of Haitang Village moved their small bamboo stools and gathered in the village square, basking in the sun and setting up a dragon gate array.

It is true that the simple and unpretentious villagers still prefer such face-to-face communication after bidding farewell to relying on communication and the rapid development of telecommunication networks.

"Hey, did you see it this morning?" An old man whose bamboo weaving was about to pull out flowers, gossiped: "The young man in the old house in the west of the village drove out this morning."

"Who doesn't know this? When his car drives out, the whole village can hear it." The old woman next to her with the insole answered, "I even said hello to him. He said he was going to pick him up in the city. Someone Booked his room online."

Hey, when the old lady said that, she instantly became the focus of the square.

The old house at the west end of the village has not been inhabited for some years. At the end of last year, a young man came back and kept beating for a few months. He said that after the decoration was completed, he wanted to set up a bed and breakfast.

The location of their Haitang Village is really good. There is a train from the county seat. It only takes half an hour to drive from the county seat to the town, and it only takes more than ten minutes to walk from the town back to the village.

But the problem is that they don't have any famous tourist attractions here, and they don't have a large floating population.

In the surrounding mountains and rivers, except for the spring outing of elementary school students, it is almost difficult to see foreign tourists.

And those tourists can basically play back and forth on the same day.

The business of hotels in the town is very bleak, let alone opening hotels in villages.

No, it's been half a month since the young man's inn opened, and it's the first time he's out of the village to pick up people today, and many people are talking about it, that young man is afraid that he will pay for it.

"The porridge in my bowl hasn't cooled yet, so why bother with other people's business?" The old bamboo weaver finished finishing the flower basket deftly, and said with emotion: "The times are different now."

At this moment, a roar of a car engine, from far to near, shook the hearts of the villagers.

"Yo, I'm back."

The villagers subconsciously followed the engine's reputation, and saw a modified red Wrangler driving along the country road in a smooth and steady manner, and the rough tires left two equally rough ruts on the dirt road.

The rock music in the car cut off the discussion in the square. The young man driving the car was the center of the villagers' conversation just now, that Ye Qiutang who had a bag in his head and ran to the countryside to open an inn.

A wolf-tailed hair full of personality, rhythmically rhythmic with the rhythm of the car, looking sharply at the road ahead, the black earring on the left ear has a little bit of cold light.

The temperament is cold and proud.

But at this time, he was showing just the right dimples, and in a tone that had nothing to do with Leng Ao, he greeted the bearded passenger on the co-pilot, "Brother, did you see that crabapple tree in front? The inn is there !"

This temperament can be said to be seamlessly switched between the little wolf dog and the little milk dog.

The bearded young man looked at the tall crabapple tree not far away, the red crabapple flowers were in clusters, and his frowning brows loosened a little.

He is a freelance photographer, and his job is to take pictures all over the world, often in wind and rain, but he has higher requirements for accommodation.

Fortunately, in the city, various star hotels can be chosen at will, no matter how bad it is, there are also clean and convenient express hotels.

But this kind of small town does not have such good accommodation conditions.

The few hotels and hotels in the town are very old, not to mention the old decoration. When you open the door, there is a musty smell, or the smell of air freshener that makes people want to vomit.

When he has no choice, he can bear all these, but what he can't bear the most is the little card that is slipped through the door of a small hotel at night.

Recalling his experience of coming here last autumn, he stayed in the best hotel in the town, but in the middle of the night he was woken up by the noise next door, and he was so scared that he ran away carrying the train all night.

But he is really not reconciled. In the eyes of ordinary people, this place is nothing more than mountains and rivers, but in the eyes of a photographer like him, there are scenes everywhere, and he can make pictures with whatever he takes.

This time, I found this newly opened homestay on the Internet by accident. Judging from the pictures on the Internet, the room is clean and tidy, and the design is very classical.

So he decided to give it another try, but after seeing this seemingly unreliable boss, he backed down a bit.

Is there still little experience of being entrapped by online pictures when booking a hotel?

He always feels that booking a hotel online is like dating online, and if he is not careful, he will step on a thunderbolt.

"Here we are." Ye Qiutang parked the car, walked around to the trunk, and helped the bearded man carry the suitcase in a very good manner. This was his first customer since he opened half a month ago, so he had to take good care of it.

The bearded man stood under the crabapple tree in front of the inn, and couldn't help but took out his big guy, a crabapple tree more than ten meters high, it would be a pity not to take a picture of it.

Ye Qiutang smiled and introduced: "This crabapple tree is more than 100 years old. It is said that it was planted when my great-great-grandfather was born."

Hearing the words, the bearded man raised his head and saw that the roof tiles on the beams had traces of years, his expression changed from his previous depression, and he asked, "So your yard is also left by your ancestors?"

"It was built at the end of the Qing Dynasty, and I reorganized it on the basis of the original one." Seeing that the bearded man was interested, Ye Qiutang immediately greeted him, "Check in first? Take a break and come back to shoot?"

The bearded man didn't respond, and asked cautiously: "The courtyard house built in the south is a bit interesting, can you show me around first?"

Ye Qiutang had no reason to refuse.

His ancestors were from the north. When the war broke out, he fled here and built this large courtyard with three entrances. At that time, there were many people in a big family, and they all lived together. Later, they developed their own development and went to other places. The courtyard was vacant. up.

Now after the rectification, the front yard has been set up as the inn lobby, self-service convenience supermarket, warehouse, and Ye Qiutang's own bedroom.

The main courtyard and the east and west courtyards have been decorated into guest rooms, and the guest rooms are all decorated according to the standard of a suite with one bedroom and one living room, so in total, there are only eight guest rooms in his inn.

As for the backyard, it was converted into a multipurpose room.

The bearded man wandered around under the leadership of Ye Qiutang, and he became more and more satisfied. This time he came out to take pictures, not to mention other scenery, but just talking about the courtyard house with one scene in three steps and one painting in five steps, he could take two pictures. God.

"Boss, please check in for me." The bearded man chose the room with the best view in the west courtyard, "Book it for three days, no, just book it for a week!"

The bearded man successfully moved in, and Ye Qiutang felt a little relieved.

In order to renovate the inn, he almost put all his family assets into it, and there was no business for half a month after opening. He was calm on the surface, but he was extremely anxious inside.

After the beard settled down, Ye Qiutang greeted again: "There is a self-service supermarket in the front yard, you can scan the QR code to pay for anything you need, and there are also menus from two home-cooked restaurants in the town in the room, which can be delivered."

The bearded man nodded, and asked again: "Are you hungry? How about we make a deal?"

Ye Qiutang touched his nose, "I'll lose weight, next time!"

The bearded man was lost in thought as he looked at Ye Qiutang's slender back as he turned and left.

Are young people nowadays so strict with their body management?

Ye Qiutang was not good at lying, so he hurried back to his bedroom, locked the door behind him, and then patted his beating heart!

I still feel more secure in my own small territory.

There is a big secret guarded in the bedroom, and he doesn't even know whether the inn should be opened or not.

In his bedroom, what is placed is not the exquisite and antique carved bed like the guest room, but the serious Qiangong Babu bed, but it is slightly different from the traditional Qiangong Babu bed.

For example, where the dressing table was originally placed in front of the bed, there was a low mahogany cabinet standing firmly.

The crabapple flowers painted on the cabinet have faded, and it looks a bit out of place with this exquisitely carved Qiangong Babu bed, but it feels inexplicably fit.

Ye Qiutang looked around furtively, and after making sure that the doors and windows were closed, he tiptoed to the cabinet and bowed.

This is his secret.

Just half a month ago, on the first day the inn opened, he cleaned up the room and took out an old writing brush from the cabinet.

It was nothing at first, but the strange thing is, half an hour later, the mouth-watering smell of food came from the cabinet.

The dishes are very simple, just ordinary home-cooked dishes, but they really came out of nowhere from the cabinet.

Ye Qiutang, an internet-addicted teenager, knew a lot about those nagging old house legends, but when it was his turn to meet them, he was still terrified at first.

After observing for several days, except for this cabinet, there are no more strange events in the house, and it is also confirmed that the cabinet will serve three meals a day on time.

Maybe God saw him as pitiful and sent the cabinet to keep him warm?

After thinking about it for two days, Ye Qiutang took the food and started attacking the chicks in the yard.

Try poison first!

There's nothing wrong with it, those chicken cubs are still alive and kicking.

Ye Qiutang has always been a big-hearted person. After making sure that it is non-toxic and harmless, he will eat it with confidence.

As a culinary waste, he felt that any adventure in an ancient house could not compare to this cabinet that could cook in his house.

I came back late today, and I don't know if the food will be cold, or just disappear?

Ye Qiutang held his breath, opened the cabinet cautiously but solemnly, and then let out a long breath of relief.

Still the same, in the center of the cabinet are three brown soil bowls full of age, one bowl of green vegetables, one bowl of meat dishes, and one bowl of multigrain rice.

The portion was just right.

Ye Qiutang brought out all the food, and using the cabinet as a table, he picked up the rice bowl and ate to his heart's content.

It's delicious to eat!

The green vegetables are the most tender sprouts, the diced chicken is cooked just right, and the multigrain rice is not as soft and glutinous as white rice, but its chewiness and taste are super good.

However, people are greedy. Before this cabinet appeared, he ate fast food every day, always looking forward to eating a few home-cooked meals; now there are delicious and free home-cooked meals on time every day. I also hope that the menu of this free dish can be enriched.

It's just a few things back and forth, and you should get tired of eating it for a while, and for Ye Qiutang, who likes spicy food, it's really too bland.

Ye Qiutang wondered, this cabinet is so magical, I don't know if it's okay to make a wish on it?

Try?

After a few mouthfuls of food, he squatted in front of the cabinet, hugged the cabinet in a strange posture and began to make a wish: "I hope I can eat boiled beef and spicy chicken diced tonight..."

After Balabala reported a long list of dishes, he felt unsafe again.

The dishes come out of the cabinet, isn't it more appropriate to open the cabinet and make a wish?

In case there are some chefs, elves, etc. in this cabinet, why can't they hear it when the cabinet is closed?

Ye Qiutang succeeded in persuading himself, and quickly opened the cabinet door.

"God's cabinet, god's cabinet, I hope to eat tonight..." Wait! ! !

Before Ye Qiutang finished his wish, he found an extra note in the cabinet.

Or a piece of yellow paper?Isn't yellow paper generally used for sacrificial offerings?

There are words on it!

Fuck, this cabinet didn't manifest itself after hearing the name of the dishes he reported, did it?

Ye Qiutang stretched out his little hand tremblingly, he wanted to see what the cabinet told him.

I saw, on the rough yellow paper, a line written in thin gold with sharp strokes: Can you return the tableware.

The author has something to say: inn management plus falling in love.

Slight metaphysics.
