Go back to the prosperous days and become a layman

Chapter 119 Spring Outing 118
Nowadays, we only have Sunday off one day a week, which should be the perfect time to sleep in, but Tang Zhitong enjoyed a wake-up call service.

"Brother, sister-in-law, it's time to get up. We're going to the zoo today." Fengzhi banged on the door outside, shouting as she did so.

"What are you yelling about so early in the morning? Your brother and sister-in-law are tired from work. What's wrong with sleeping too much? If you keep doing this, I won't let you go." When Zhang Guifang heard her little girl shouting, she hurried out of the main room and twisted Fengzhi's ears. Just pull it aside, why is this naughty kid so expressionless? I still hope to have a grandson soon.

"Fengzhi, you go wash up first, and we'll go after breakfast." Wang Jingwen pushed Tang Zhitong aside and said to the sister-in-law outside the door.

"This unlucky guy is ignorant." Tang Zhitong was lying on the bed with his back stretched out, unable to move his teeth up and down. The stone grinder must be arranged to save Fengzhi from being so energetic!
"Hehe, get up quickly and don't stay in bed." Xiao Wang threw the clothes to Tang Zhitong and playfully flicked them with his fingers to remove the crow's feet.

"It's only around six o'clock." Tang Zhitong touched his watch from the bedside, looked at the time, yawned and stretched. He discussed knowledge with classmate Xiao Wang last night for a long time and didn't get enough sleep.

"After breakfast, it's past eight o'clock when we get to the zoo." Xiao Wang, while getting dressed, urged his man to get up.

Ever since Wang Jingwen made the promise last week, the two sisters have been thinking about it. They stayed up late last night to do their homework. They finished their homework for the weekend and were waiting to go to the zoo today.

After all, she was his biological sister, and Tang Zhitong had no temper. What's more, he had never taken them to play around before. This time, it was his wife who suggested it. No matter from which point of view, Tang Zhitong had to cooperate, so he had to grind to get up.

Fengzhen and Fengzhi ate breakfast very quickly today.Fengzhen was fine, just watching without urging. Fengzhi's left ear was still red, but she asked again every two minutes: "Sister-in-law, what time is it?"

"Fengzhi, don't worry, we'll leave after I finish this bite." Wang Jingwen and Tang Zhitong could only speed up their meal. They had to finish the promise they made with tears in their eyes.

After Tang Zhitong and Wang Jingwen finished eating, the two sisters couldn't wait to go out and wait beside the bicycle, urging their brother and sister-in-law with practical actions.

"Mom, let's go together?" Tang Zhitong asked his mother before going out.

"I'm not going, you go ahead. It's getting late, let's go." Zhang Guifang waved her hand to chase them away, without any intention of going.

Adults really have no interest in the zoo, but mostly children are interested.

Tickets to the zoo are not expensive, 8 cents for adults and half price for children. What is more expensive is transportation. For example, if Tang Zhitong and his two sisters take the bus from the flower market, the round trip fare will cost two yuan because they have to transfer. The look of money.

Tang Zhitong and Wang Jingwen both have bicycles, so there is no transportation cost, but they don't save money either. On the way there, Wang Jingwen bought two kilograms of snacks from a joint snack shop.

Since the steamed buns were purchased from steamed bun houses, people's purchasing channels have expanded to restaurants and snack shops, so the prices of food in these places have increased to varying degrees.

The purchase of dim sum is currently limited to two kilograms per person, and no ticket is required, but the price has increased from eighty-two cents per kilogram to one yuan and two.

On the way, Tang Fengzhi sat on the back seat of Wang Jingwen's bicycle, chattering non-stop. One moment she asked, "Sister-in-law, are there big tigers in the zoo?", and the next moment she asked, "Sister-in-law, how big is the elephant?"... He looked like a real one. One hundred thousand whys.

It is about [-] kilometers from Donghua Market to the zoo, and it took the group an hour and a half to ride there.

When passing the Xizhimen roundabout, Tang Zhitong slowed down and took a look. In order to protect the urn city and arrow tower at Xizhimen, a large turntable was made during road construction.Ten years later, it was demolished in order to build a subway. So far, only one front gate (Zhengyang Gate) remains among the nine gates in the inner city.

At this time, the zoo has not yet expanded to the north of the Changhe River. The gate faces south. To the east of the gate is a bicycle storage room, which will become the front room in a few decades.

Buy a ticket to enter the zoo and follow the flow of people to the right.

As Wang Jingwen walked, she introduced the zoo to her two sisters-in-law: "This was the private residence of the royal family in the Qing Dynasty. The place we are standing now is called Leshan Garden, and the area to the west is called Keyuan, commonly known as Sanbeizi Garden." Who is San Beizi? Does this place belong to his family?" Fengzhi asked ignorantly.

"San Beizi is Kang Mazi's third son. He died hundreds of years ago." Tang Zhitong looked around. It was his first time to come to the zoo. There were many small animals locked up here and the cages were quite simple.

"Why is it called Kang Mazi? Like Brother Ma San, has he ever had acne?" Fengzhi asked with a slightly skewed focus.

"Yes, I have had acne. Look at animals and listen to your sister-in-law tell you about it. It will open your eyes." Tang Zhitong patted the little girl's head and told her.

There are tour guides these days. Most of them are university graduates who have mastered foreign languages. They are cadres and are mainly engaged in foreign affairs reception. Ordinary people rarely have the opportunity to come into contact with them.From the introduction given by classmate Xiao Wang just now, Tang Zhitong felt that she might have heard the explanation.

The following tour confirmed Tang Zhitong's guess. He could tell everything about where the animals came from and what they ate.

"Sister-in-law, this monkey looks a bit like a human." Fengzhi pointed at the gibbon and said.

"It's just how people change. If you are too lazy to work, you will become like this. You have to be more diligent when you go home." Tang Zhitong wanted to pave the way for Shi Mo, but he was slapped by Wang Jingwen.

"Stop talking nonsense." Wang Jingwen glared at Tang Zhitong and introduced to the two sisters-in-law: "This is not a monkey, it is a kind of ape..."

Talking all the way, when we came to the elephant room, Wang Jingwen introduced: "The four elephants here are gifts from India, Vietnam, Myanmar, and Pakistan to the people of our country. The elephants are very smart. I saw them last time. There was an elephant playing the mouth organ."

"Can elephants really play the mouth organ?" Fengzhen asked for the first time after entering the park.

"The elephant is indeed smart, but it doesn't know what to brag about. It's all the result of artificial training. If it doesn't cooperate, it will be beaten. Over time, it will get better." Tang Zhitong thought of the bloody elephant training he saw in the news, and the When I was a child in the circus, everyone was beaten with sticks and whips behind their backs.

"Sister-in-law, is that true?" Fengzhen couldn't believe it.

"If you ask me, I don't know." Wang Jingwen glared at Tang Zhitong again, why are you telling your child this?

"Keep walking forward and see if there are any strange animals ahead." Tang Zhitong took Fengzhen's hand and walked forward. It might not be a bad thing to let the children know about some things.

The Sijicheng Zoo is second to none in China in terms of scale, animal species and quantity, including kangaroos, giraffes, polar bears, eagles, swans, hippos, elk, pandas, jackals, tigers and leopards, etc.

The zoo covers a large area, and Wang Jingwen explained it carefully and took more time. At noon, the four of them drank a large bowl of tea and ate some snacks.

In the afternoon at the bird house, there was a myna who could only talk, which attracted a large number of children to watch. "Hello", "Have you eaten?", "Goodbye", "***", and I don't know which bear. The child was taught a curse word, which made everyone laugh, and the zoo did not criticize or educate him.

When she came to the wild boar room, there were a group of wild boars of all sizes. Fengzhi swallowed and asked, "Sister-in-law, are these pigs delicious?"

"I don't know, ask our cook." Wang Jingwen kicked the ball to Tang Zhitong.

"It doesn't taste good, it's woody and fishy. Besides, the skin of this thing is very thick, and it can't be killed by a shotgun. The wild boar will get fierce and bite a lot of people to death, just like playing. Besides, this is public property, so don't worry about it, next week. , and I’ll make rabbit for you.” After making dumplings last time, the meat tickets were reduced, and Zhang Guifang increased the interval between eating meat. Tang Zhitong knew that it was his sister who was greedy for pork.

"Well, rabbits are delicious too." Fengzhi became happy after hearing this.

　Guys, if you have tickets, please support me, thank you!
