Chapter 524 Spring Water

When he finished the call, Paula rushed over and dragged him out the door.

"Aunt Huili, we're leaving."

When they got to the alley, Li Renyong asked, "What are you doing with those two buckets?"

The bucket is a plastic bucket for water, with a handle on the side.

Paula lifted the bucket and said, "Yesterday, Auntie said she wanted to drink spring water, so I thought I'd take this opportunity to fill it up."

Li Renyong looked at the two buckets and had something to say.

Just fill it with water, why do you need two 15-liter buckets?

You know, 15 liters is equivalent to 30 kilograms.

Walking back from Bukhansan Mountain, even if you don’t bring a bucket of water, you will be exhausted, okay?

"Isn't it a bit heavy? Let's change to a smaller bucket."

Paula smiled and said, "It's not heavy. It's a good exercise for you to hold it."

"Then what are you doing?"

"Of course I'm with you."

Oh boy, from what you mean, I have to carry both buckets.

You call it exercising, but I'm the one who suffers. Then our mother will praise you.

Looking at Paula's smiling face, her eyes were like stars, sparkling with bright light.

The smile is very sweet.

The corners of Li Renyong's mouth twitched involuntarily.

Just then, Teacher Liu walked out the door with a broom.

Li Renyong quickly walked over and said, "Teacher Liu, you got up late today."

Teacher Liu smiled and said, "As long as the alley is clean, it's never too late."

Li Renyong was about to reply when he saw President Jin and his family of four walking out the door carrying large and small bags.

Ms. Luo looks like a noble lady.

She wore a leopard print coat on the upper body and a skirt on the lower body, which was very simple and elegant.

President Jin did the same, wearing a suit with a coat on the outside.

Wearing sunglasses, he looks like the boss of a gang.

It just affects your image by pulling up your pants from time to time.

Li Renyong came up to the two and said, "Aunt Luo looks very beautiful today."

Ms. Luo posed and said, "How do you look today, Auntie?"

Li Renyong raised his thumbs up in praise.

"Where are you going in Japan?"

President Kim replied, “Tokyo.”

Li Renyong smiled and said, "Tokyo, you can go to Tokyo Tower. If you have time, you can go to Okinawa to see the cherry blossoms."

It's already January.

While it is still snowing in Hokkaido, the cherry blossoms in Okinawa are already in full bloom.

Unlike the pale pink cherry blossoms in the mainland, the cherry blossoms in Okinawa are light red or dark red.

Anyone who has seen the movie "Seediq Bale" should have noticed this kind of cherry blossoms in the last scene.

It has a nice name, called "Fei Han Ying".

Li Renyong doesn't like this kind of cherry blossoms very much, but prefers the white and pink cherry blossoms in Hokkaido.

All over the mountains and fields, when the wind blows, they are covered with petals.

Absolutely beautiful.

President Jin said loudly: "Go, you must take a look this time."

Zhenghuan stood aside with dark circles under his eyes, looking listless.

"Mom, let us know you're safe when we get home."

Li Renyong smiled and said, "Zhenghuan, what's wrong with you? Didn't you sleep well last night?"

Can you sleep well?
Last night, Guang lay next to Deok-sun and didn't fall asleep until four in the morning.

Zhenghuan smiled and said nothing.

Ms. Luo said, "Zhengfeng, after we leave, go back to your hometown when you are ready, and don't let grandma wait."

"Yes."

There is always a kind of people in this world.

No matter what time or place you are, if you meet acquaintances, just say it.

Li Renyong was in this state at the moment.

Paula looked at her watch anxiously.

If we delay any longer, we don’t know when we can come back. She took Li Renyong’s arm and said to everyone with a smile: “Auntie, we have something else to do, so we’ll leave first.”

After saying that, he dragged Li Renyong out of the alley.

……

The main gate of Bukhansan Park.

Li Renyong wiped the sweat from his forehead and said tiredly, "We are finally here. Let's take a break. We have walked a long way. Let's rest for a few minutes before we continue."

Paula looked at Li Renyong with disdain.

How far is this?
You know, during the parade, if you don’t have good physical strength, you can’t keep up with the team.

She seemed like a tireless perpetual motion machine, with a brisk pace.

"Hold on a little longer, we'll be there soon. Look at those people, they're much older than you, but they don't feel tired at all."

Li Renyong looked up at the crowd, most of whom were elderly people who came to exercise or take a walk.

There were also many people carrying buckets to collect spring water.

There was hardly any sign of tiredness on anyone's face.

Li Renyong struggled to stand up from the bench and said with a grin, "Let's go. I don't believe it anymore."

After saying that, he ignored Paula and walked forward.

Paula looked at his back, smiled, caught up with Li Renyong and walked side by side.

In fact, she was going to Baiyuntai today.

I originally planned to go to the observation deck first after arriving at Bukhansan Mountain, then go to Baekundae, and then collect mountain spring water.

step by step.

But Li Renyong still had to go to the TV station, so he had to give up this idea.

Baekundae is the highest peak of Bukhansan Mountain. It is not too high, but not too short either.

More than 800 meters.

You can have a panoramic view of the entire Seoul.

It is made entirely of huge granite rocks, with no artificial steps, so it is a little difficult to climb.

When we arrived at the place where we collected spring water, there weren't many people there.

It's past seven o'clock now.

People who live in Seoul should know that the locals believe that natural things are best for the human body.

Especially the mountain spring water in the morning.

Basically, after eight o'clock, no one comes to collect spring water.

In Li Renyong's view, it's all superstition.

No matter what time it comes, water is just water. How can it be turned into a drink?
In later generations, this custom is rarely seen.

The water flows slowly through carefully designed pipes. Although not very fast, it is continuous and steady.

Next to it, a simple shelf stood quietly.

There are several wooden spoons on top.

This is for the convenience of tourists to quench their thirst.

You read it right, you can use it whenever you are thirsty.

I don’t know how many people have used it, it’s like the kettle in a hotel.

Soon, it was Li Renyong and his companion's turn.

Li Renyong lowered his head, opened his mouth and took a sip of the water.

He shuddered and said, "It's so cold, Paula, would you like a drink?"

Paula smiled and said, "You'd better go back and boil the spring water. You don't know what's in it. What if you get sick from drinking it?"

"It's not clean. You won't get sick after drinking it."

After Li Renyong finished speaking, he placed the bucket under the pipe.

When the bucket is full, it becomes heavy.

Very heavy.

My left hand weighs thirty kilograms, and my right hand also weighs thirty kilograms.

Li Renyong was already exhausted when he came, and now he had to carry two buckets of water back.

I guess it will die halfway through.

"Um... Paula..."

Paula smiled and said, "No, it's not that heavy."

It's really not very heavy.

There is a water dispenser in the school, and basically every time the water is changed, the students have to go downstairs to fetch it.
