Because of the travel plan, Bei Sitian seemed very happy, which was even happier than the big increase in sales of heavenly blessings, Luo Xudong saw this, and touched her head dotingly.

Qin knew that the two of them finally had time to be together, and prepared enough food for them to bring the next day.

Luo Xuping really wanted to go with him, but he wanted to go to school, but if he didn't go to school, the Qin family wouldn't let him follow, Luo Xudong could take care of Bei Sitian, and he would add one more, so he would inevitably be distracted.

At half past eight the next day, Luo Xudong and Bei Sitian arrived at yesterday's location on time, and when they arrived, the foreign old man was already waiting there, wearing outdoor sportswear and carrying a gray schoolbag on his back.

The old foreigner, named Maynard, is British, and recently traveled to China to fulfill his wife's wishes.

"My wife would have liked to have come in person, but unfortunately ......," Maynard said, sitting in the back of the car.

It's a pity that he didn't say anything, but with a sad look on his face, he soon smiled again, "Fortunately, I am still here, and I will not leave my wife with regrets." ”

"My wife hopes to build more Hope Primary Schools so that children who can't afford to go to school can go abroad in the future."

Maynard is a talkative person, even if Bei Sitian and Luo Xudong don't speak, he can talk a lot alone.

Maynard is actually not yet fifty years old this year, and some of the people look at the age of the elderly is the color of their hair.

"Do I look old? My son said that if you keep your mind young, people will not get old, and I always feel that my mind is very young, but I am still old. Maynard shrugged his shoulders and said with a smile.

He speaks Chinese, although the pronunciation is blunt, but he speaks very fluently, the grammar is no problem, and the vocabulary is very rich.

"Mr. Maynard is very fond of calligraphy?" Beth Tian asked.

Speaking of this, Maynard became interested, "I like calligraphy very much, I like cursive, I don't know how many Chinese characters I can write, anyway, I can't understand cursive, but I like the charm inside, I like the ethereal and flexible strokes, I can read it for a day when I look at it!" ”

"How did Mr. Maynard come to be fond of calligraphy?" Bei Sitian couldn't help but ask.

This is too profound for foreigners, because the culture is different, and the influence they have received since childhood is different.

Maynard laughed after listening to it, "At first, I didn't like it, and even called it a ghost painting symbol, Chinese characters are very complicated, not to mention such a font, I was influenced by my wife, she loves to write, with that kind of soft brush, I like to see her expression when she writes, focused and serious, such a demeanor to write words, I think it is also full of beauty, is so little like calligraphy." ”

Beth Sweet watched Maynard talk about his experiences, his wife in every scene, and it was obvious that he loved his wife very much.

Thinking of the sadness in his eyes before, maybe his wife had just died.

It's not easy to inquire about people's privacy, and Bei Sitian just sighed, and didn't mean to ask more.

"Do you know calligraphy?" Maynard asked with a smile.

Beth Tian nodded, "Yes." ”

Maynard laughed, "Don't brag, not every Chinese knows calligraphy, I know this very well!" ”

Beth Tian pursed her lips, "That's true, but I really will." ”

"Then you have time to write to me, although I can't write, but I will read, I have a collection of a lot of famous calligraphy and paintings, but not random brush writing out of the words called calligraphy."

Beth Tian chuckled, "Okay, I wouldn't write to him in the ordinary world." ”

Maynard gave a 'you're naughty' look, "I'm bragging again, I'm going to criticize if I can't write well, so let's put it this way." ”

He couldn't hold on to whether the word criticism should be used.

All his language environment comes from his wife, and this is his first time in China, so although he speaks Chinese fluently and uses rich words, some words are not accurate, and I don't know if they are suitable for use in some places.

The three of them drove to the Mentou Goutan Tuo Temple, almost forty or fifty kilometers away, some of them are mountain roads, not very easy to walk, simply not a lot of cars, drive a little slower, and soon arrived at the location.

There are many people who come here to pray for blessings, and there are several famous ancient temples in the suburbs of Beijing, and Tantuo Temple is one of them.

Luo Xudong drove the car up as much as he could, but the road was not so well repaired, and there was no way to drive the car up.

He didn't want to disappoint Bei Sitian, he couldn't see anything here, so he simply drove towards the path.

The road was wild, and the SUV was bumpy, so he slowed down and got as close as he could.

The car finally stopped in a clearing, and there was no road any further, and here you can vaguely see the eaves and water chestnuts of Tantuo Temple, and you can't see the whole picture, and the whole picture is hidden between the mountains and forests.

"I know this temple, I heard that your emperor gave the name Xiuyun Temple at the beginning, but because there is a dragon pond behind the temple, and there is a tuoshu on the mountain, it is also called Tantuo Temple." Maynard said what he knew.

This was what his wife had told him.

Tantuo Temple is actually the name of the folk, and there is even a folk proverb that there is Tantuo Temple first, and then Beijing City, where incense has been flourishing.

It can be seen that Maynard really wants to go in and have a look, but it is inconvenient for Bei Sitian and Luo Xudong to go up, he feels that it is rude to leave them alone, and besides, the place where Luo Xudong came is very wild, he has little outdoor experience, and he does not dare to act alone.

"If you want to go in, Mr. Maynard, we'll leave you at the door when we get back." Luo Xudong said.

Maynard smiled, "No need, I'll come back next time." ”

The three of them had a picnic in the golden sun, and Maynard brought butter bread and the like, which Beth was not used to.

And what they brought, Maynard ate with relish.

"Chinese food is vast and profound!" Maynard held out a thumbs up.

Bei Sitian almost didn't squirt out when she heard a mouthful of water, why does it feel a little strange when the word 'broad and profound' is used here?

Luo Xudong, who had been feeding Bei Sitian, suddenly frowned, glanced around, and the sharp light under his eyes flashed.

They are surrounded!

There were seven or eight people on the other side, and he heard the sound of a bullet being loaded, was it coming at him?

Luo Xudong approached Bei Sitian quietly, and was thinking about what to do next, when he heard Maynard sigh on the side.

"Looks like I'm leaving."
