Chapter 341 Li River Cruise
The lights on both sides of the Li River are bright, reflecting a colorful scene, as if bringing people into a dreamlike world.
Chen Zhiyao and her group strolled slowly along the path along the river, feeling the cool breeze on their faces and the sound of the gurgling river.
As they walked, they came to a bridge. The lights on both sides of the river were reflected on the surface of the river, sparkling and beautiful.
In the distance, cruise ships are slowly passing by, and the lights on the boats are flashing, adding a romantic atmosphere to the whole picture.
When they returned to the hotel, it was already past eight o'clock. Although they were a little tired, everyone was in a particularly good mood.
Different from the majestic sea, the green mountains and clear waters here appear more gentle and pleasant.
Although this is our first day here, it doesn’t stop us from thinking that Guilin is indeed a great place.
After shopping for a whole afternoon, everyone was tired and fell asleep in less than two minutes after lying down on the bed.
Normally we go to the beach to catch seafood, so we are used to getting up early.
The next morning, before 6 o'clock, everyone had already gotten up early.
After packing their luggage, Chen Zhiyao and her family came to a rice noodle shop that had a good reputation online.
Go and try the authentic local Guilin rice noodles.
There are actually many kinds of Guilin rice noodles, including soup noodles and dry mixed meat and braised dish noodles.
This time we are going to Lukoucun Yihe Rice Noodle Shop, an old shop frequented by locals.
Their braised food rice noodles, especially the pot-roasted beef rice noodles, are very famous.
Several people went out at 6 o'clock, and there were not many people in the store at that time.
Chen Zhiyao, who had already known about this restaurant in advance, volunteered to help everyone order food.
"Boss, I want 2 taels of rice noodles with braised beef, and 5 bowls." After ordering, she received a small sign.
She had already known that the noodles here are measured by liang. One liang is about 150 grams of rice noodles, two liang is 250 grams, and three liang is 350 grams. Generally, two liang is enough.
There were many seats in the store, and the few of them randomly found an empty table and sat down.
After a while, the store owner brought out five bowls of fragrant braised noodles.
This time, the Guilin rice noodles were different from the ones I had yesterday. They were dry mixed with some finely chopped pot roast and braised beef on top, which smelled particularly fragrant. A bowl of pot roast beef rice noodles, with both pot roast and beef, only cost 5 yuan.
Not to mention Chen Zhiyao, even Yan Shuting and Grandma Chen, who were always frugal, were shocked.
There is also a free condiment table next to it, with side dishes such as sauerkraut, pickled radish, pickled beans, pickled bamboo shoots, and chopped green onions. You can add as much as you want.
Add your favorite side dishes, mix the marinade evenly and you can start eating.
"Wow, it looks delicious!" As soon as Chen Zhiyao finished mixing the flour in the bowl, she couldn't wait to take a big bite.
The rice noodles are smooth and chewy, the marinade is rich and mellow, and paired with a variety of seasonings and side dishes, it is a delicious dish that will leave you with an endless aftertaste.
The meat inside is also very good. It is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside when cooked in a pot. The braised beef is also very fragrant in the mouth. Except that the portion is a little small, there is almost nothing wrong with it.
It’s only 5 yuan a bowl, why would you need a bicycle?
The family had a delicious breakfast and it only cost 25 yuan in total.
Chen Zhiyao is very envious of people living in Guilin. The prices here are really amazing.
She even felt that her boss was doing charity.
When they returned to the hotel, the tour group's car had just arrived, and they hurried back to get their luggage and check out.
The things had been packed long ago and the check-out was quick. When the Chen family got into the car, the other family had not arrived yet.
The tour group that Chen Zhiyao signed up for was a small group, with a total of 10 people from the two families.
Li Guang, who had come to the high-speed rail station to pick people up earlier, is the tour guide this time.
Chen Zhiyao and others got on the car. After a few minutes, the car started and headed towards the next destination, Zhujiang Wharf.
Several people from the Chen family sat together. Along the way, they enjoyed the scenery outside the window and chatted non-stop. The atmosphere was very relaxed and happy.
Listening to the familiar voices of her family, Chen Zhiyao felt very at ease. She closed her eyes unconsciously and fell into a nap.
After about an hour, the bus arrived at Guilin Zhujiang Wharf.
Li Guang led everyone to a magnificent cruise ship. This four-star cruise ship is a two-story ship, and the stern of the second floor and the entire third floor are viewing areas.
The tour group arranged seats for everyone on the first floor.
After getting on the boat, everyone quickly found their seats, and the family of five naturally sat together.
Chen Zhiyao's seat was right next to the window, and through the glass window next to her, she could see the scenery on both sides of the river at a glance.
As the cruise ship starts moving, the scenery on both sides of the Li River unfolds before your eyes like a picture scroll.
The emerald green mountains are rolling and the river water is crystal clear. You can just take a picture with your mobile phone and use it as your phone screensaver.
Although you can see the scenery outside through the glass window, it still isn't as nice as it seems.
Li Guang kindly took everyone to the terrace on the third floor.
The wind is a bit strong here on the 3rd floor, but the beautiful scenery in front of you is so beautiful that you can't take your eyes off it. The weather today is average, and there is a lot of fog all around, which just adds a bit of fairy air to the Li River.
Chen Zhiyao gazed into the distance, feeling as if she was in a fairyland on earth.
She was completely intoxicated by the beautiful scenery.
Then she took out her cell phone and couldn't stop taking pictures.
Soon, Li Guang's enthusiastic voice was heard nearby, introducing everyone to the various scenic spots of the Li River and the history and culture of Guilin.
There were more and more people on the deck, so Chen Zhiyao simply brought her family to the observation deck on the second floor.
Compared to the third floor, there are at least half as many people here, and the wind is not that strong. It's quite pleasant to feel the river breeze.
After a while, the sun came out and the fog around gradually dissipated.
Suddenly, Grandpa Chen next to him exclaimed: "Rainbow, there is a rainbow ahead."
She looked to the left and right, and soon found a small half of a rainbow on the right mountain. Rainbow Chen Zhiyao quickly took out her phone and took a photo with the rainbow with a smile on her face.
Then, she was pulled away by her mother and grandmother to take photos of them.
As for Grandpa Chen and Chen Weiqiang, who had nothing to do, they felt itching to bring fishing rods.
Otherwise you can go fishing on the river.
I don’t know how long it took, but Li Guang sent a message to everyone in the group, saying that they were about to reach the 20-yuan filming location and asked everyone to come out quickly.
We also specifically reminded everyone to bring a 20-yuan note.
Chen Weiqiang took out a brand new 20 yuan note and stood up with a smile:
"Let's go to the deck on the third floor."
Chen Zhiyao immediately stood up and urged excitedly:
"Hurry up, hurry up, if it gets late there will be no place to stand."
A few people came to the third floor and found that it was already full of people and they couldn't squeeze in at all.
Even if you manage to squeeze in, you probably won't be able to see much of the scenery with so many people.
The few of them had no choice but to turn around and go to the observation deck on the second floor.
Fortunately, there were not many people here. As soon as they stood up, Yan Shuting shouted excitedly:
"Here, here, it's really the same as the one on the 20-yuan bill." He took out his phone and took a photo. The real scene is even better. Chen Zhiyao also quickly took out a brand new 20-yuan bill and took a century-old photo.
