Chapter 508 Hot Spring Boiled Eggs

The main peak of Changbai Mountain has high altitude, low temperature, strong wind and abundant water.

When it rains, the temperature drops sharply. Even in the summer, it can make people shiver.

Even if Xu Shiyan and his party were wearing long-sleeved trousers and thick clothes, as well as a raincoat, they couldn't stand the cold, so the group went straight into a restaurant.

At this time, there were more people in the restaurant, noisy and steaming.

Most people are sighing, it is rare to come to Changbai Mountain, but they catch up with such weather.

Some people said that they should stay in a hotel in the mountains and see if the weather will be fine tomorrow.

Xu Shiyan had to consult the opinions of those merchants. If they wanted to stay, they had to book a room quickly.

Several foreigners shook their heads regretfully. Their itinerary has fixed arrangements, and there is really no extra time to stay.

There was no other way, so Xu Shiyan had to go out, bought a bag of hot spring boiled eggs, and ordered a few stir-fried dishes in this restaurant.

The big guys opened all the cans and other things they brought before going up the mountain. At the starting point of the mountain climbing, the big guys had lunch.

The hot spring boiled eggs are a bit interesting. The egg yolk is solidified, but the egg white is not completely solidified, and it tastes slightly sulfurous.

Everyone thought it was fresh, and ate most of the bag of eggs.

After lunch, the rain on the mountain became heavier and heavier. Xu Shiyan and the others could only take a bus down the mountain, and then dared to go to Erdaobaihe Railway Station, and took the afternoon train back.

When I arrived at the foot of the mountain, I found that the sky was still cloudy, but it was not raining.

Everyone can't help but sigh with emotion, no wonder it is said that "a mountain has four seasons, and the sky is different for ten miles." It is indeed a well-deserved reputation.

With regret, the group boarded the train from Erdaobaihe to Songjianghe again, and it was already evening when they arrived home.

Songjiang River here is a sunny day, the sun sets in the west, and the sky and clouds in the west are reflected orange-red, magnificent and gorgeous.

Before boarding the train, Xu Shiyan found a place to call his work unit, so the jeeps who participated in the show were already waiting outside the train station.

So the foreigners were sent back to the hostel to settle down, while Xu Shiyan went home directly.

"Huh? Why are you back so early?"

Su Anying and Zhou Guilan, who were busy serving meals on the table and preparing to have dinner, were surprised when they saw Xu Shiyan come back.

Didn't you say when you left that you have to come back tomorrow morning? Why did you get home tonight?

"Hey, don't mention it, it was quite sunny when we were there yesterday, and the heat is unbearable.

As a result, it was cloudy when I woke up this morning, and it was raining on the mountain, so I couldn't climb the mountain at all.

No way, we can only come back. " Xu Shiyan shook his head and sighed.

It’s rare to go back to Changbai Mountain, not to mention the Tianchi Lake, I didn’t even go to the edge of the Tianchi Lake, I can only look at the waterfall from a distance at the foot of the mountain.

It is impossible to say that there is no regret.

"Huh? Is it raining over there? It's not raining at all at home, but the sun is good.

How far do you think it is, why is there such a big difference? "Su Anying was also amazed when she heard this.

"Okay, hurry up and wash your hands and eat, this is probably waiting for you to lead us to climb mountains next year.

At that time, if the weather is good, we might be able to go up. "Su Anying smiled and comforted her man.

Xu Shiyan is a big man, why can't he get through this little thing?

"Well, we're close, we can go whenever we want.

Let’s go to eat. I also brought a few hot spring eggs, and I will give the children a taste when I come back. "

He bought too much on the mountain, and he didn't finish eating at noon, so he put the rest in his pocket, just in time for the children to taste.

The children were very happy to see their father, and they were also very curious about the hot spring eggs that their father brought back.

But when the egg was opened and found that the egg white was not cooked, Xu Haiyuan frowned and looked embarrassed.

"Dad, how do you eat this, it's not cooked yet."

"It was really boiled in the hot spring, and the hot spring water on the mountain is only 85 degrees, so it was boiled like this.

The yellow inside is ripe, and the outside is half-cooked. Try it, it's quite delicious. "

Xu Shiyan smiled and explained it to the children.

"Okay, then I'll try it." Xu Haiyuan ate the egg with a look of reluctance.

It may be because the eggs are cold, but they didn’t taste so delicious anyway.

Eggs, no matter how hard you try, you can’t taste other flavors.

Maybe for other children, eggs are rare, but for Xu Haiyuan and the others, it is really not rare to eat eggs at home.

It's just that my father carried it all the way back from the mountain, so the children don't want to waste it.

Changbai Mountain has not been climbed, but the ginseng seeds at home have dried up.

Two days later, until August 19th, it's time for the children to return to school.

At this time, Xu Shiyan also received news from the Agricultural University.

Before, Xu Shiyan asked someone through his connections to send Xu Shian to the Agricultural University to study animal husbandry and veterinary medicine at his own expense.

The Agricultural University replied that Xu Shian can go to school now, try to report before the end of September, so as not to delay the course.

"Father, my second brother can go to college this time." Xu Shiyan hung up the phone and told Xu Chenghou the good news.

Don't care whether to give a diploma or a diploma, Xu Shi'an went to study for two years, at least he has finished college.

No matter what time it is, reading is always useful.

Xu Chenghou was also very happy to hear that, but he was worried about the tuition fee again.

"Hey, the second child is different from you. He is studying at his own expense, so he earns a lot of money, right?"

"It's not bad, it's not too expensive, the tuition fee is not much, the main thing is that you have to pay for your own food and accommodation."

It doesn’t cost much to go to college these days, even if it’s all at your own expense, the fees are not high.

Others not only don’t spend money to go to university, but also have various subsidies. If you live economically, you can save some money.

Xu Shi’an can’t do this, he has to pay for meals and lodging himself, which is more expensive.

"Oh, oh, then tell your second brother to save a little and don't spend like crazy."

All the expenses of Xu Shian's study abroad were paid by Xu Shiyan.

The old man is not partial to anyone, but mainly because he loves money.

Most people in this year have this kind of thinking, they are very simple, proud of hard work, and ashamed of extravagance and waste.

"Yes, yes, I know." Xu Shiyan responded casually, but he didn't intend to really say that to his second brother.

How much can one person spend on food and drink?

Xu Shian is married, has a wife and children, how can he not know how to live?

If Xu Shiyan asked these things again, it would be superfluous, as if he couldn't afford his second brother to study.

Xu Shian was naturally very happy to hear the news.

He discussed this matter with his wife, and Wei Mingrong was okay and quite supportive.

In the autumn of 1983, with the support of his younger brother, Xu Shi'an planted ten-foot-long sticks in the garden behind his house.

Xu Shi'an made some calculations, the school told him to report before the end of September, and he must pick up the stick before leaving.

There is no need to worry about selling, just ask Xu Shiyan to help with it when the time comes.

So it was decided to start making goods on September 15th.
