Chapter 232 Beijing, here I come.
Qian Yizhen said with satisfaction: "Good, you have a very comprehensive understanding of Tiananmen Square. When we really face Tiananmen Square, we must observe it carefully to see if it is the same as what is said in the book. We must combine theory with practice."
"Mom, my dream is to go to an architectural university and design a fine building like the Tiananmen Gate Tower, and pass it down," said Yongjun.
"What's so fun about building a building? My ideal is to go to Beijing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics and launch a satellite like Uncle Wang Wei," said Aijun.
"My ideal is to travel to the beautiful scenery all over the country, eat the delicious food all over the country, and become a traveler." Junyan said intoxicatedly.
"Ideals are full, but reality is cruel." Gao Weizhe said dimly.
"The children are discussing very enthusiastically. It seems that they have done their homework. Have you packed your luggage? We will leave tomorrow, so don't be unprepared.
I have prepared 500 yuan in reserve funds for each of you for emergency use." Ming Yuanhui said as he distributed the money to the children.
"I'd like to remind you again to recheck your clothes, underwear, socks, shoes, raincoats, umbrellas, toothbrush and towels, common medicines, Band-Aids, mosquito repellent, Beijing maps, notebooks and pens, portable water bottles, travel bags, student ID cards, etc. to be prepared for any eventuality," said Ming Yuanhui.
The children took the money and went back to their bedroom to check and pack their luggage.
Ding-ling-ling, Yang Ruolan called and said, "Fei-yan and Fei-xiang are clamoring to go to Beijing. What's going on? Are you going to take the children to visit Beijing?"
"It's summer vacation now. Yuan Daoqin invited Professor Jiang Yuhan to visit Beijing and take a look at the wedding house that Chairman Wang Hengxiu bought for Wang Wei and Yuan Daoqin in Beijing. The military girls also want to go to Beijing, so we discussed a plan to study in Beijing during the summer vacation.
The first batch was led by Professor Jiang Yuhan, and included Junhua, Gao Weizhe, Yongjun, Aijun, Qiangjun, and Junyan as team members. They were accompanied by business car driver Xiao Sun throughout the trip. They would first go to the front station and the planned trip would take ten days.
The second group will be led by me, with Grandpa Lu Kaipu, Grandma Chen Yalu, Jun Ge, Wang Min, Xiang Xiang, and Gang Gang participating. The commercial vehicle can only carry seven people. If you want to participate, you will need to add more vehicles. "
"I'll go. Tell me when the second batch will leave and I'll send a car," said Yang Ruolan.
Junhua, Gao Weizhe, those who support the army, love the army and strengthen the army got up early and were extremely excited. This was their second long journey after their border defense trip in Yunnan.
Junyan was so excited that she didn't sleep well. She would sit up after sleeping for a while to see if it was daybreak, fearing that they would leave her behind. Every time Junyan sat up, Xia Juxiang would comfort her, "Junyan, it's daybreak, Auntie will definitely wake you up, it won't be late, sleep well.
Early the next morning, the children finished washing and came to the restaurant with their luggage to have breakfast. While the children were eating, Ming Yuanhui and Qian Yizheng further emphasized the travel discipline.
"We must act in a unified manner and follow the instructions of Grandma Jiang Yuhan and Aunt Yuan Daoqin. We cannot leave the team and act on our own. Remember their cell phone numbers. If you lose contact, find the police and security guards and learn how to save yourself. Do you remember?" Ming Yuanhui said seriously.
"There are many people in the scenic area, so you must take care of each other at all times. Brothers and sisters should take good care of your younger brothers and sisters. Brothers and sisters should not be willful, talk to strangers casually, or eat food given by strangers. Ensure your personal safety. Remember?" Qian Yizheng said worriedly.
Ding-ling-ling, Professor Jiang Yuhan called: "Yizhen, I'm already in the car, are the children ready?"
"Professor Jiang, we're ready. We'll be out right away." Qian Yizhen said as he waved to the children.
The six children stood up at the same time, ran to the gate, and climbed into the business car. Qian Yizhen reminded again: "The children must listen to Grandma Jiang Yuhan's instructions." The children nodded repeatedly and shouted in unison: "Mom, I got it, bye."
Qian Yizhen said to the driver, "Xiao Sun, drive slowly. It takes about seven hours to drive from the provincial capital to Beijing. Don't drive while tired. Stop and rest for half an hour every two hours. Don't rush. Safety is the most important thing." Xiao Sun nodded and said, "Mr. Qian, don't worry. I will drive carefully and return safely."
"Professor Jiang, please, thank you for your hard work and I wish you a safe journey." Ming Yuanhui said as he waved.
The business car started, slowly drove out of the ancient street, and headed towards Beijing.
At 6 p.m., driver Xiao Sun drove his business car around Chang'an Avenue and slowly passed Tiananmen Square. The children opened the car windows and saw the real Tiananmen Tower. They shouted excitedly: "Beijing, here I come."
At seven o'clock in the afternoon, Professor Jiang Yuhan and his nine-member delegation arrived safely at their destination, Yuan Daoqin's residence in Beijing, which they called "Jingfu."
Yuan Daoqin had already cleaned the Jing Mansion thoroughly, and the eight bedrooms as soon as one entered the courtyard were equipped with mosquito nets, fans and other facilities. The living room and dining room were spacious and bright, with an antique style and elegant environment, giving one the feeling of living in the Chen Mansion or the Wang Mansion.
After a brief discussion, Professor Yuan Daoqin and Jiang Yuhan assigned housing to everyone and told the children to put down their travel bags, wash their faces and hands, and go to the restaurant for dinner.
Professor Jiang Yuhan called Qian Yizhen and Wang Min separately and said, "We have arrived in Beijing safely and are staying at Yuan Daoqin's home in Beijing. Please rest assured, family members."
Arriving at the restaurant, Jun Ge saw the big round watermelons filling the storage room next to the kitchen. She strongly requested to eat the watermelon first and then the meal. In this hot summer, the big watermelon was simply too tempting. Yuan Daoqin picked up the watermelon, washed it in the kitchen, cut it into pieces, and brought it to the table.
After a while, Professor Jiang Yuhan, driver Xiao Sun, Junhua, Gao Weizhe, those who support the army, those who love the army, and Junge finished off two big watermelons.
Yongjun said: "Beijing watermelon is really delicious, so refreshing, hahaha."
Qiangjun said: "Hello, Beijing, I'm here. The courtyard houses in Beijing are much bigger than those in Chen's mansion in the northern provincial capital. They are fun, hahahaha."
Junhua said, "You two should keep your voices down. You are disturbing the neighbors. Humph."
"I'm not a very good cook, so let's just make do with steamed dumplings and millet porridge for dinner today. I ordered it from a nearby restaurant and it will be delivered soon. Please forgive me for the inconvenience. I'll treat you to Peking duck tomorrow." Yuan Daoqin said.
"Daoqin, you're welcome. You've put in a lot of effort and done your best. After dinner, let's discuss the itinerary for our eight-day tour of the capital Beijing," said Professor Jiang Yuhan.
Half an hour later, the fragrant dumplings were served. The children were instantly conquered by the meaty aroma of the dumplings and began to eat them in big mouthfuls.
After eating and drinking, everyone discussed the itinerary and precautions for visiting Beijing. Finally, Yuan Daoqin suggested: "Go back to your rooms tonight, go to bed early, and get enough rest. The first stop tomorrow is Tiananmen Square in Beijing."
