Chapter 479 The Nile River
Chapter 479: The Nile River
As the four ancient countries in the world, Egypt has ancient civilizations envied by many countries. Whether it is the mysterious pyramids, sphinxes, or developed hieroglyphs, they all represent the incredibly developed civilizations of the ancient Egyptians. What nurtures all this is the Nile River flowing through the eastern and northern Africa. While nurturing the splendid ancient Egyptian civilization, the Nile River also created beautiful scenery on both sides of the Nile River. Today, the Nile River is an internationally famous tourist area, attracting a large number of tourists every year and creating tens of thousands of fiscal revenue for the Egyptian government. Like the Suez Canal, the Nile Tourist Area is also an Egyptian money tree.
"Why do you refuse to hold a wedding? You know, I always want to give you a unique wedding." Bufan asked Liu Qingya beside him while sitting on a wooden boat cruising on the Nile River.
"Don't you know that what I want is not a good wedding, but a good marriage?" Liu Qingya admired the tropical landscape on both sides of the river and said to Bufan lightly, "If we both really have that leisure time, it's better to travel around. Look at the beautiful scenery of the world and relax. This is much more difficult than those who are trying to do it."
"You are always real!" Bufan smiled faintly. Bufan naturally wants to laugh if he has such a considerate wife.
"Don't praise me anymore. When I was not rich, I always fantasized about having money, buying all kinds of clothes, jewelry, and going to and from the most advanced restaurants... Now, I have money! But I just want to walk quietly and enjoy the peace. Dear, do you think people are all such conflicts? I always feel that life that cannot be obtained is the best?" Liu Qingya asked Bufan.
"Maybe! I feel this way too. In the past, I just hoped that I would have a luxury car and a good house to make you and your family live comfort and happiness. Now, with all this, I want to go back to the past. The tree wants to be quiet but the wind does not stop!" Bu Fan said with a sigh. Although it took only seven or eight years to go back and forth, Bu Fan felt that he had experienced most of his life.
"This time, it's rare for us to come out for a trip, so don't think about this. Now, you are not the chairman of Yangliu United Group, nor are you the general of the Republic, nor am I the president of Yangliu United Group. We are just an ordinary and ordinary couple who come out for a honeymoon." Liu Qingya took Bufan's hand and said to Bufan gently.
"Okay, my wife says whatever she says! Now I will let my local village chief, and I won't go; I will accompany my wife to swim in the Nile River." Bufan hugged Liu Qingya's slender waist and let Liu Qingya lean in his arms.
"Dear, you always said in front of me that you are well-versed in the past and the present. Now, please tell me what is related to the Nile River!" Liu Qingya leaned in Bufan's arms and looked at Bufan and said.
"Are you exam for me? Then I will tell my wife. But by then, I don't speak well, you can't let me sleep on the ground!" Bufan couldn't help but remember what happened that he almost slept on the ground on the night he married Mei Ruolan. He couldn't help feeling a little funny: In order not to get out of bed by his wife, he had to work hard to learn kung fu before marriage.
"Why do you laugh? I'll tell you, just say it quickly!" Liu Qingya's pink fist gently hit Bufan's chest and ordered.
"The Nile River is a river flowing through eastern and northern Africa. Together with the Congo River and Niger River, it forms the three major river systems in Africa. The Nile River has two tributaries: the Blue Nile River and the White Nile River. The Blue Nile River originated in Ethiopia is the arrival of most of the water and nutrients in the lower Nile River. Egyptian civilization originated from the irrigation of the Nile River, while the Nile River mainly originated from the Ethiopian Plateau. It can be said that Egyptian civilization began on the Ethiopian Plateau." Bufan said to Liu Qingya.
When Liu Qingya heard Bufan's words, she nodded deeply and said to Bufan: "Just like Chinese civilization. Chinese civilization originated in the Yellow River Basin, while the Yellow River originated in the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. Therefore, it can be said that Chinese civilization began on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau."
"In addition to nurturing Egyptian civilization, the Nile River is also the longest river in the world, with a total length of more than 6,600 kilometers, almost cutting the entire North Africa." Bufan continued to say to Liu Qingya, "Although the civilization of Egypt is amazingly developed, its own combat power is not very strong. Therefore, it has become the first choice for conquering many powerful countries. From Caesar, Anthony, Octavian BC, to Napoleon and Britain in modern times, they all had the idea of Egypt.
The most famous story of Caesar and Cleopatra, leaving the most legends. Cleopatra's name is Cleopatra VII, and is the last pharaoh of the Ptolemaic dynasty in ancient Egypt. It is said that she is very charming." Bufan said, and saw Liu Qingya's forehead slightly wrinkled, and hurriedly changed his words, "Her appearance is just a legend, but Qingya, you are a legend." Liu Qingya gave Bufan a angrily glance, but did not disturb Bufan and continued.
"Cleopatra was the daughter of Ptolemy XII and Cleopatra V, the sister and wife of Ptolemy XIII. According to the tradition of ancient Egypt, the country was ruled by Ptolemy and Cleopatra, and Cleopatra was both Ptolemy's half-sister and had to become his wife. In other words, ancient Egypt had always been in the tradition of marriage with close relatives." Bufan said to Liu Qingya, "Later, because of Cleopatra and him
The brother and husband Ptolemy XII was expelled from Alexandria, the capital of ancient Egypt at that time. At this time, the great conqueror Caesar pursued the defeated army Pompeii to Egypt. Cleopatra VII, also known as Cleopatra, sneaked into the capital Alexandria while the night was dark, wrapped in a blanket and carried it to Caesar. Next, I don’t need to say what happened!" Bufan looked at Liu Qingya with a smirk.
Liu Qingya gave Bufan a fierce look and said to Bufan: "It is said that in order to win over Caesar, Cleopatra often accompanied Caesar to sink a boat up the Nile River, watched the sunrise and setting of the Nile River, and gave birth to a child for Caesar."
"There seems to be something in the book. Cleopatra can accompany Caesar to watch the sunrise and sunset, so I will accompany Miss Liu to watch the sunrise and sunset! Today's sunrise is impossible. However, the sunset is coming soon. The sunset is perfect, but it's almost dusk. It's a different enjoyment to ride a boat on the Nile River." Bufan sighed at the gorgeous sunshine.
After a day of traveling, Bufan and Liu Qingya dragged their tired bodies back to the hotel.
"Today is so tired, but today is definitely a happy day for me! We haven't been like this for a long time." Liu Qingya gently kissed Bufan's forehead, "Dear, I'll take a shower first. You call and call something!"
Bu Fan looked at Liu Qingya's increasingly charming and mature figure and shook her head guiltily. She was not satisfied with such a good woman. After thinking about it, Bu Fan really didn't know when she was with her last time.
When Liu Qingya came out after taking a shower, she saw Bu Fan smoking in front of the window, and the table was filled with food.
Bufan heard Liu Qingya's footsteps and put out the cigarette butts on his hand. He turned around and smiled at Liu Qingya, "Are you hungry?"
"Bufan, do you have any worries? I remember you only smoke when you have any worries." Liu Qingya looked at Bufan and said to Bufan with concern, "Dear, we are already husband and wife. What are the things that we can't share together?"
"Qingya, I'm fine! I just feel deeply guilty about you and Jia Ni. Sometimes, I really want to go back to the past and back to the past, but it's a pity that we can't go back now." Bufan smiled at Liu Qingya, "If you don't say it, it's rare to be happy once you come out. Don't lose interest in these things. Eat! I specially ordered a bottle of wine. The wines near the Mediterranean are very delicious and can also beautify the skin. You can drink more later."
Liu Qingya gave Bu Fan a blank look, with a faint smile on the corner of her mouth, and sat opposite Bu Fan.
"Come on, let's have a drink! For our marriage, for our daughter, and for our relatives!" Bufan raised his glass and said to Liu Qingya.
"Your glass of wine means so much, it's really a saving!" Liu Qingya's wine glass gently clinked with Bufan's wine glass, took a sip, and said to Bufan, "I have always wanted to discuss my daughter's name. What name do you think should I change?"
"The name sounds pretty good now! Why do you need to change your name?" Bufan asked in confusion.
"Now my daughter's name is Liu. Don't you let her change her surname to Bu?" Liu Qingya put down her wine glass and said to Bufan.
"What are you changing? If your surname is Liu, your surname is Liu! Our parents are the only daughter, so let our daughter’s surname be Liu! In the future, inherit the Liu family and be a girl as beautiful and smart as you." Bufan said to Liu Qingya.
"But like this, are your parents happy?" Liu Qingya said worriedly, thinking uneasy: After all, there is more than one daughter-in-law, what if she makes her parents-in-law unhappy...
"Come on! You don't know my parents' attitude towards you. Are you still worried that they will say you? No matter whether she's surname is Liu or Bu, it's enough to have such a granddaughter." Liu Qingya slowly let go of her heart when she heard Bufan's words.
"If you feel sorry for them, I have a better way." Bufan said mysteriously.
"What's the solution?" Liu Qingya looked at Bu Fan's appearance and asked in confusion.
"Is it okay for us to have another one! This is the best of both worlds!"
