Chapter 16 Traveling and being fooled

Two days later, the two notices from No. 8 Middle School of the city were mailed together, and the school registration will start on August 21.

Song Ye entered the experimental class and was exempted from paying tuition fees for three years. After enrolling, the school will also provide a living allowance of 2 yuan.

In principle, Qu Liao was admitted to the parallel class of No. [-] Middle School.

Gao Xiuyue made some calculations, and discussed with Qu Dajiang, let the two children go on a trip somewhere, as a small reward for them to be admitted to No. [-] Middle School, and Qu Liaoyuan is getting bigger and bigger, so there is no harm in going out to gain insights.

When the two of them were talking, Qu Liaoyuan heard him, and he chatted with Song Ye after returning to the room.

"Xiaoye, where do you want to go?" Qu Liaoyuan excitedly said, "You have been to many places, where would you like to go?"

Song Ye hesitated and said, "It's better not to go, it will cost a lot of money to go out."

Qu Liaoyuan said: "It's okay, I heard from my parents, let's go with a tour group, a travel agency will come to the factory to advertise, it's only 290 to go to Qingdao, and there are five cities in East China, more than 700 per person."

"You can't follow this kind of group, it's all deceitful." Song Ye knew what it was when he heard it, and said, "If you don't visit any serious attractions, you just drag tourists to buy things. If you don't buy, the tour guide will take it for you." Swearing at people with a loudspeaker."

Qu Liaoyuan didn't know this, and asked, "What to buy?"

Song Ye said: "They are all worthless things. Broken stones are put in a flannel box and sold as jade, and dog skins are dyed and pretend to be fox fur. The travel agency and the seller are in the same group, and they have a share of the tourists' purchases. Otherwise, do the math, a few hundred yuan? Not even enough for the air ticket, is the travel agency crazy?"

It was the first time for Qu Liaoyuan to hear these things, and he found it interesting, and asked again: "Then have you ever been fooled?"

"I won't be fooled." Song Ye said, "My stepmother was fooled once. She went to Hong Kong to play, so far away, and brought back a silk quilt bought for more than 9000 yuan. My dad almost fainted with quilt inside. It’s not mulberry silk, but what kind of tussah silk, and you can buy one at the mall for no more than 500 yuan, do you think this woman has a brain?”

Qu Liaoyuan: "Hahahahaha."

Song Ye said: "Don't laugh, your brain is not much better than hers."

Qu Liaoyuan still smiled and said, "Then let's not go with the group. I'll tell my mother later, let's go play by ourselves."

"It's good to play by yourself, but it's expensive." Song Ye still said, "Just tell Aunt Gao that it's too hot, and we're both afraid of the sun, so we don't want to go anywhere."

Qu Liaoyuan wanted to go to play, and also wanted to go with Song Ye, and said, "Xiao Ye, don't be afraid of spending money. Since the two of them said let us go, it proves that the family has this money. My father and my mother are not that kind. Donkey dung, a person who only wants to be superficial."

Song Ye: "..."

"No, no," Qu Liaoyuan realized that what he said was wrong, and hurriedly said, "I didn't say Uncle Song was that kind of person."

Song Ye smiled and said, "Don't make excuses, you are right, he is, otherwise how could he end up like this."

Qu Liaoyuan: "..."

Song Ye kicked him and said, "If you look at me like that again, I'll beat you."

Qu Liaoyuan looked at the computer screen in confusion, acting like a mirror, and said, "What kind of eyes do I have?"

There were only the two of them here, and Song Ye didn't need to pretend, he said, "I'm fine, so you don't have to pity me."

Qu Liaoyuan turned to look at him and said, "Then you have pity on me. I have been to Beijing once in my life. I have not had a good time. I remember that there are so many people. I also suffered from heatstroke. I am so pitiful."

Song Ye: "..."

Qu Liaoyuan pretended to howl, and said: "Brother, my brother Xiao Ye, I want to go out to play, if you don't go, my mother will definitely not let me go by myself, let's go together."

Song Ye kicked him again.

When Gao Xiuyue and his wife came to ask for their opinions, they asked, "Where do you two want to go?" and took out the flyer from the travel agency.

"You can't follow this kind of tour group." Qu Liaoyuan started the science popularization vividly, telling his parents the routine of this kind of cheap tour group.

Gao Xiuyue said: "I just said, how can it be so cheap? Your dad insisted on being stubborn with me, saying 'everything is a regular travel agency'."

Qu Dajiang raised his hand, accepted the criticism humbly, and said, "Then I'll ask a few big travel agencies later, you two first decide where to go."

"We won't be in the group anymore," Song Ye said, "Aunt Gao, let me take Xiaoqu'er to play."

Qu Liaoyuan was overjoyed and shocked: "Ah?!"

Gao Xiuyue also said: "How can I do that?! You two children, if you meet a human trafficker, you should be sold."

Song Ye said: "No, Aunt Gao, how many times have I gone out? When I went out to the local area before, I didn't go with my dad and the others. I played on my own. Even when I went to Southeast Asia, Thailand, and Singapore Go shopping by yourself, don't worry."

Qu Dajiang thought it was okay, and said: "I think it's okay, let Xiao Ye take Xiao Qu'er, don't go to too far and remote places, just play for a few days, and nothing will happen, as long as Xiao Quer listens to Xiao Ye's words."

Qu Liaoyuan immediately said: "I will definitely listen to Xiao Ye's words!"

Song Ye said: "I don't want to go to too remote places. Xiao Qu'er said that he didn't have a good time going back to Beijing. Why don't I take him to Beijing again? The train to Beijing is also convenient. There are several times a day. The security of the capital is worse than other places. Be nice."

"That's right," Qu Dajiang chimed in, "The Olympic Games will be held in 2008. Beijing must be different from when I took Xiao Qu'er there last time. Let's go and see the capital of our motherland."

Gao Xiuyue said: "Then where did you two go to live? Can the hotel accommodate children?"

"You can do it when you are sixteen," Song Ye said with a smile, "Don't worry, Aunt Gao, I don't know how many times I have been to Beijing. My dad has several classmates in Beijing. He used to take me to meet these uncles. I have eaten, and I can still ask them for help if I have something to do."

Three days later, Song Ye took the 2000 yuan in cash from Gao Xiuyue, his own bank card, and Qu Liaoyuan to the train station and took the train to Beijing.

Gao Xiuyue sent them to the station, bought another platform ticket, sent them to the station and boarded the train, and found their seats.

For trains with the prefix K, there are still face-to-face, back-to-back seats in the carriage, and there is a small table between the passengers sitting opposite, and there are three or four seats in a row.

Gao Xiuyue was worried, and gave a few more instructions.The train whistled and was about to leave, so she went down, stood under the window and waved to the two children on the train, suddenly her eyes turned red and she shed tears, besides worrying, there is also a kind of young eagle growing up and about to spread its wings and leave her Feel.

Qu Liaoyuan also burst into tears, and the train was moving slowly. He lay on the side of the half-open window, desperately waved at Gao Xiuyue, and shouted heartbreakingly: "Mom! Mom! I miss you every day!"

Song Ye: "..."

The passenger sitting opposite was an old lady, who was deeply moved by the love between mother and child, and asked Song Ye, "Where is he going? Has he been there for a long time?"

Song Ye said: "Just go to Beijing and come back in four or five days."

old lady:"……"

Besides, it took five or six hours on the road, and it was already afternoon when we arrived in the capital. After making two subway trips, we found an express hotel that Song Ye had booked in advance online, and after checking in, it was dark.In the evening, the two went out to eat something nearby, didn't go shopping much, and went back to the hotel early to get ready for bed.

The shower head in the hotel is different from that at home, Qu Liaoyuan tried for a long time but couldn't get hot water, so he called Song Ye: "Xiao Ye, come here!"

Song Ye pushed open the bathroom door, and Qu Liaoyuan stood in the glass bathroom with bare buttocks, and said depressedly, "I don't know how to use this."

Song Ye went in to adjust the hot water, but Qu Liaoyuan didn't go out from the bathroom. He stood with his hands on his hips and watched how he adjusted it.

After sitting on the train for half a day, Beijing was also very hot, and Qu Liaoyuan smelled of sweat mixed with youthful breath.

Song Ye said: "You stay away, suddenly hot water comes out and scalds you."

"I'm not afraid." Qu Liaoyuan said that he was brave, but he was afraid of being burned, so he went out obediently.

Soon the hot water came out, and Qu Liaoyuan happily went in to take a bath.

Song Ye came out, closed the door, stood there, and thought about things for a while.

The next day, the two got up early to go to the Forbidden City. They walked a few steps out of the hotel when they saw the gate of the "Forbidden City Museum" in front of them.

Qu Liaoyuan said happily: "Xiao Ye, you are so good at choosing a place, it's so close!"

Song Ye said calmly, "It's okay."

But the gate in front of them could not be entered. The two of them observed for a long time and found that the Shenwu Gate was the back door. To enter and visit, one had to enter through the Meridian Gate in front, and only after the visit could one exit from the Shenwu Gate.

Song Ye started to look at the map, his brows were furrowed, as if he was confused.

It was Qu Liaoyuan who went to ask the old man who was walking the birds by the moat, and the old man said that he could walk to the front door by walking around the base of the city wall.

Qu Liaoyuan came back and said, the two listened to the old man's words and walked around the red walls and blue bricks of the Forbidden City.

"Haven't you been here several times?" Qu Liaoyuan asked in bewilderment, "Why did you book a hotel at the back door?"

Song Ye said depressedly: "I used to stay at my dad's classmate's house when I came here. I never stayed in a hotel, and it wasn't written on the map."

Qu Liaoyuan took the map and looked at it, and said, "Isn't this just a circle, just go south and walk to the Meridian Gate? Then you just looked at it for a long time, what did you see?"

Song Ye said: "I don't know if the map goes up north and down south, I just...forget it."

Qu Liaoyuan had an epiphany, and said in disbelief, "Xiao Ye, you can't tell the difference between the south, the south, and the north, right?"

Song Ye remained silent.

"No way," Qu Liaoyuan said, pointing to the sky, "Then do you know which direction the sun is at now?"

Song Ye said angrily: "Can you not talk? Can you go?"

Qu Liaoyuan decided not to provoke him, and said, "Let's go, let's not talk anymore."

After walking for a long time, but still not seeing the front door, Qu Liaoyuan was afraid of going wrong, so he asked someone for directions: "Excuse me, how long will it take to arrive at the Meridian Gate?"

Passerby: "Do you want to visit the Forbidden City?"

The two nodded.

Passerby: "Today is Monday, the Forbidden City is closed, go back."

Two people: "..."

The weather was already hot, and the two of them suffered such a big blow, which made them even more dejected.

Song Ye bought two ice creams, and the two of them ate the ice creams and stood in place to discuss whether to go to the Great Wall or the Summer Palace?

At this time, an aunt in her fifties passed by, wearing a "state-run travel agency" Little Red Riding Hood, and asked the two of them, "Little handsome guy, do you want to go to the Great Wall? A day trip to the Great Wall and the Ming Tombs."

Song Ye asked, "How much?"

The aunt said: "The regulation is [-] per person. We can form a group with a few more people here. We can get a discount. If you two want to go together... [-] per person."

Song Ye looked at Qu Liaoyuan and asked for his opinion, Qu Liaoyuan looked blank.

Song Ye couldn't count on him, so he thought about the price on the Internet. The price of two hundred per person per day should be a regular group, so he bargained again: "One hundred and fifty, one hundred and five, let's go."

The aunt frowned for a long time before she nodded and said, "Okay, okay, I'm here to complete the task. When you get on the bus, don't tell anyone what your price is."

The two got on the bus. The tour guide was a girl about 20 years old. She greeted them with a warm smile and said, "I'll just wait for you two."

A car full of people, both with northern and southern accents.

The two of them sat down firmly, and the bus drove away.After driving for a short distance, the tour guide began to introduce: This route is to go to the Great Wall and the Ming Tombs. The Great Wall, also known as the Great Wall, is an ancient Chinese military defense project...

Qu Liaoyuan fought with his upper and lower eyelids, and she was told that he had fallen asleep.

When he woke up again, the bus arrived at the Great Wall. After getting off the bus, the tour guide distributed the tickets and let the tourists move freely.

Standing under the Great Wall, Qu Liaoyuan and Song Ye felt that something was wrong.

Isn't the Great Wall the "Badaling Great Wall"? What is the "Shuiguan Great Wall"?

But everyone has dispersed, and the bus doesn't know where to go.They also had no choice but to climb the Great Wall along with them. Young people, when they had fun, they forgot about other things for the time being.

After regrouping, everyone was tired, and when the bus started to move, Song Ye fell asleep, and most of the other tourists on the bus squinted or slept or closed their eyes for rest.

Qu Liaoyuan was in high spirits, and thought of this strange "Water Pass Great Wall". Looking around, he was separated by a passageway with a 30-year-old elder brother. year old girl.

"Brother," Qu Liaoyuan accosted, "Bring your daughter to play?"

The eldest brother smiled at him and said, "Yes, what about you?

Qu Liaoyuan pointed to Song Ye who was sitting inside, and said, "This is my brother, are you from the south?"

The elder brother said: "I belong to Funan, you?"

After chatting for a while, Qu Liaoyuan even talked about his grades in various subjects in the senior high school entrance examination.

"Brother, how much did you pay for this group?" He asked purely out of curiosity.

The eldest brother said: "One hundred."

Qu Liaoyuan: "One... one hundred? One person?"

The eldest brother said: "Yes."

A sister in the back row heard it, and said in surprise: "Why did we pay two hundred? They said it was a special price."

Song Ye was still in his sleep, but was woken up by Qu Liaoyuan's yelling, and he asked in a daze, "What are you doing?"

Qu Liaoyuan said: "Xiaoye! We have been fooled!"

Song Ye: "What?"

Song Ye, who claimed that he would never be fooled during the trip, was deceived by a black tour guide from the so-called "state-run travel agency" on the first day of his trip to Beijing with his younger brother Qu Liao.
