Dad's Entertainment Life

Chapter 92 Jinling ([-])

In the afternoon, the four of them came to the Confucius Temple.

The Confucius Temple was first built in the Song Dynasty. It is located next to Gongyuan Street on the north bank of the Qinhuai River. It was originally a place to worship Confucius, but it was destroyed and rebuilt many times.

It is known as one of the four major Confucian temples in China, and it is also the most important scenic spot in the Qinhuai River scenery belt of the Confucius Temple. It is a must-see attraction for tourists who come to Jinling.

But maybe it was because of the afternoon, the flow of people was not as dense as imagined, which made Xue Yuzhi, who had been nervous all the time, heave a sigh of relief.

The entire Confucius Temple complex is in front of the Confucian Temple and in the back is the Academy. The layout is symmetrical, forming a central axis of Confucian culture from south to north.

After passing Lingxing Gate and Dacheng Gate, you will find the Central Temple.

The stone corridor leads directly to the Dacheng Hall. In front of the hall stands a 4-meter-high bronze statue of Confucius, the largest in the country. On both sides of the corridor are white marble statues of twelve sages.

The Dacheng Hall is the main hall of the Confucius Temple, in which hangs a 6-meter-high portrait of Confucius, known as a masterpiece of the Huaxia Confucius Temple.

On the four walls of the main hall are 38 colored stone mosaic murals "Confucius's Sacred Sites", which reflect the life and deeds of Confucius.

When they came here, they naturally wanted to pray for blessings. Lin Qirong bought some incense and gave them to them, and prayed together, hoping that the two little girls would succeed in their studies.

Although the two little girls didn't understand anything, they followed the two of them in an orderly manner, with a pious look, which was really cute.

The most pious one was naturally Xue Yuzhi, who was chanting words without knowing what he was talking about.

Then Lin Qirong led them to the Bell and Drum Tower in the academy to ring the bell, which also had the same effect.

After finishing all this, the four came to the Folk Art Grand View Garden behind the Dacheng Hall.

Here you can watch handicrafts such as lanterns, paper-cuts, and micro-carvings, listen to local operas and Jinling Baiju, and there are many wonderful performances.

There are a lot of people here, Lin Qirong lifted Tongtong and sat on his neck so that she could see more clearly.

Tongtong held a cotton candy in one hand and a small toy in the other, looking around happily, never tired of looking at it.

Jiajia was held tightly by Xue Yuzhi, and she looked at Tongtong who was yelling enviously, and she really wanted to sit on it.

Lin Qirong noticed the look in her eyes, and after a while, he put Tongtong down, "Tongtong rests for a while, let my sister watch it for a while, okay?"

Lin Yitong was a little bit reluctant, but still nodded obediently, and was hugged by Xue Yuzhi.

"Are you ready?" Lin Qirong said to Jiajia with a smile, seeing her nodding, reaching through her armpits, and lifting her up high on his neck with a little force.

"Giggle." Jiajia sat on it and giggled happily. This was the first time she enjoyed such treatment.

I used to see other children being envied by their father doing this, but now this dream has finally come true.

Xue Yuzhi looked at the smiling Jiajia and felt a little sad. She had lacked father's love since she was a child, and now she finally found this feeling in Lin Qirong.

only······
She looked at Lin Qirong who was carefully supporting Jiajia, and sighed softly in her heart.

"Unfortunately, it's not the Spring Festival now."

Lin Qirong and her laughed, "If you come here during the Spring Festival to the Lantern Festival, there will be a Jinling Lantern Festival held here. At that time, there will be thousands of lights here, and there will be a sea of ​​tourists. That scene is an exaggeration."

Xue Yuzhi pursed his lips and smiled, "It's pretty good now."

Although it's a pity that I couldn't see the "Jinling Lantern Festival", the "Yuhua Stone Exhibition", "Ancient Etiquette Culture Exhibition", "Ancient Gagaku Performance" and other exhibitions and performances are being held here.

Lin Qirong took them to play slowly, while explaining the origin and various allusions of the Confucius Temple to them, while answering all kinds of weird questions from the two little girls.

Fortunately, as a screenwriter, he has read countless books, and he has also read a lot of books in this life. He has also read relevant materials before coming here. Asked down, saved face.

But this is enough to make Xue Yuzhi admire her. She thinks that if she answers by herself, she will lose the battle soon.

After visiting the Confucius Temple, the sky has gradually darkened.

After dinner, Lin Qirong rented a painting boat and slowly drifted downstream along the Qinhuai River.

The ten miles of Qinhuai River, the smoke and moon of the Six Dynasties, and the gold powder of Ming and Qing Dynasties make the Qinhuai River far exceed the beauty of a river itself.

The smoke cage is cold, the water is moon cage, and the sand is in the moon cage. At night, the Qinhuai River is near the restaurant.The merchant girl didn't know the hatred of subjugated country, and she still sang the flowers in the queen's garden across the river. The song "Night Mooring Qinhuai" became the eternal classic of singing Qinhuai River.

Sitting on the painting boat, the night breeze is blowing, and the ancient buildings with white walls and black tiles on both sides of the river are constantly coming into view.

The lights on the building and the strings of red lanterns under the eaves are reflected in the water of the Qinhuai River, as if to feel the prosperous old days when literary poets recited poems by the river.

The tour guide on the boat is very dedicated. He tells historical allusions and anecdotes about more than [-] scenic spots and landscapes along the coast, including former residences of celebrities, historical sites, famous bridges, famous gardens in the south of the Yangtze River, and lanterns in the Qinhuai River.

Jinling, Moling, Jiankang, Yingtian, Emperor Qin, Sun Quan, Xie An, Zhu Yuanzhang, Chen Yuanyuan, Li Xiangjun, Hou Fangyu, Wang Xianzhi—history and reality complement each other, let everyone know the stories that happened on this river, and deeply Feel the richness of history and humanistic atmosphere.

The one-hour journey was very rewarding, and you will still have endless aftertaste after getting off the boat.

Back at the resort, the two little girls were so sleepy that they lay down on the bed and fell asleep after simply taking a bath.

"After playing all day and not sleeping at noon, I must be exhausted." Lin Qirong said with a smile.

Xue Yuzhi nodded. In fact, she was also very tired. After all, she hadn't walked for such a long time, and the soles of her feet were still aching.

"I have to go take a dip." Lin Qirong told her, changed his clothes and walked to the hot spring pool to soak.

The warm spring water wrapped his whole body, making him moan comfortably.

After a day of shopping, he had to be distracted by taking care of the two little girls. He was also exhausted. He lay on a sloping stone with his eyes closed and rested. He didn't even hear the sound of Xue Yuzhi coming over and entering the water.

Xue Yuzhi's heart was beating wildly. This was different from last night. The real two were alone together. This feeling made her feel hot all over. I don't know if it was because of shyness or because of the hot spring water.

But after realizing that Lin Qirong seemed to have fallen asleep, she slowly calmed down, hesitated for a moment, and then slowly moved to the vicinity of Lin Qirong, quietly looking at Lin Qirong who had fallen asleep with his eyes closed.

The chiseled face looked a little soft at the moment, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, and he didn't know what happy things he thought of.

What kind of person is he?He always has a smile on his face all day long, as if no difficulty can trouble him.

He has excellent cooking skills, and the food he cooks is ashamed of himself; he has a pair of skillful hands, and can make exquisite handicrafts like jade rabbit lamps; he has a kind heart, and he took them in when they were most difficult. lost them.

Maybe other people would think he had bad intentions, but only she knew that he was purely out of sympathy.

She has a secret that others don't know, that is, she is very sensitive to other people's eyes, and can clearly distinguish the kindness or malice in other people's eyes.

The reason why she didn't dare to go out too much was because those men's eyes always had a hint of crazy possessive desire, which made her very scared.

But Lin Qirong looked at her very clearly, with appreciation, admiration and pity, but without any malice. This was the most important reason why she decided to accept his help.

And he treats Jiajia really well, just like treating his own daughter.

Jiajia is also very close to him, and has obtained the longed-for fatherly love from him.

Thinking about it, Xue Yuzhi couldn't help but become a little crazy.
