Chapter Seventy-Three: Hongqiao

On the carriage, Mu Wan and the two sisters were very interested in the liveliness of the market. The pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info carriage walked slowly, and some small traders around came over, holding a few of their own goods, and came to ask the buyer. Some are fine satins, some are ingenious knick-knacks, and some are scissors and needles used by female workers. Yun Bi looked at it attentively, and the people who came to ask were either children or older women.

The child's pace is small, and the mother-in-law's pace is slow, and she doesn't forget to praise her goods when she trots with the car. They were very close and were not afraid of being caught by the wheels, but they were very law-abiding, and the young lady in the carriage did not lift the curtain to ask, and they did not dare to stretch out their hands to make a mistake. I just asked in a low voice over and over again, but the people in the car didn't care.

Inside and outside the car, there is still this level of inequality between people, and Yun Bi feels a little uncomfortable.

She stretched out her hand to lift the curtain, Mu Wan ripped off the placket of her clothes, "Do you think there is something missing in the house and just call out to the subordinates, you take care of them at this time, and then they will chatter endlessly." ”

Yun Bi frowned slightly and was silent.

The carriage traveled for several more miles, but did not turn. The vendors who followed gradually faded, and the strong aroma of dogwood and chrysanthemums still filled the air. In the rich streets, the pedestrians are still full of joy, and the vendors are not shouting, but the customers who come to inquire about the price show the prosperity here.

The girl in the same car is also excited to look around, the main road of this avenue is more than seven miles long, the traffic is busy, extravagant, and it is very prosperous. In addition to the main road full of people, the "Qili Jinling Road" is also full of shops in Xingrong. I didn't notice it before, but when I really came here today, in this huge world, Yun Bi was like a villain who was out of place.

Then she saw an elderly woman hobbling in front of her, carrying a small bamboo basket on her wrist.

Mu Wan stopped the old woman, and Yun Bi saw the magnolia flowers in the bamboo basket. Sweet and fragrant, there are also bracelets made of strings of white orchids hanging on the side, as well as white orchid earrings. picked two incense pendants, Mu Qing picked a magnolia flower bracelet, Mu Wan liked the copper wire wreath and put it on her head, and Mu Xi chose a long flower chain. The four girls have their own loves, and their mother-in-law is more than business, and she is very enthusiastic.

Mu Wan put down the silver tael, "No need to look for it." ”

Yun Bi saw her mother-in-law's thick calloused hands and took the silver. Take change in a small rag pocket. Hearing Mu Wan's words, the movement of her fingers stopped, and the happy color on her face immediately appeared, and she was very grateful. It turns out that for those who work harder, the purer the happiness.

Yun Bi sighed, when she came to this imperial city, she only felt empty, she didn't know what she could do, and she didn't know what she was. The carriage is filled with the elegant fragrance of magnolia.

These beautiful ornaments are only momentarily vibrant, especially the white petals, the more they are played, the faster they turn yellow and rotten, and they are about to deteriorate?

The carriage continued to move forward, and the bustle outside the carriage became even worse, and Mu Wan's eyes lit up, "It's almost there."

Yun Bi was confused, and at this time, Mu Qing, who was silent and gentle, suddenly spoke, "In front of you is the famous Hongqiao Wharf Area, which is named after the bridge, but the most worthy of the pride of every citizen of the Shenlong Kingdom is our Longjiang." ”

Her voice and tone were extremely gentle, and there seemed to be an extra layer of light on her face, "The Longjiang River is the longest river in the world, vigorous and magnificent, even in the most severe days, the Longjiang River has never frozen. It is not only the symbol of the Dragon Kingdom, but also the lifeblood of the Dragon Kingdom. There is a folk legend that the Longjiang River lives in the Qinglong, a sacred beast that guards the fortune of the country, so there is naturally a mysterious trend in the river. The reason why the demons did not invade is because they are afraid of it, the dragon river is endless, and the dragon country is eternal. ”

"I believe in Hongqiao's love story more," Mu Wan smiled and shook the white orchid bracelet on her hand, "I don't know if I can meet my Ruyi Langjun today." After speaking, he smiled sweetly.

Mu Qingdao said, "It's not a system, talking crazy, don't take your two younger sisters badly." Mu Wan stuck out her tongue, "Look at what our Xi sister has been managed by you, at a young age, the wreaths she picked are so old-fashioned, they are all like Buddha beads." She can't think about what she will do when she becomes a little nun in the future. Before the carriage stopped, Mu Wan didn't care about it after speaking, so she jumped off and ran away.

Mu Qing shook his head and looked like Yun Bi, "This is our family's crazy girl, let's go down too." ”

As soon as Yun Bi got out of the car, he saw a large-scale wooden arch bridge across the Longjiang River, which has an exquisite structure and beautiful form. Like a flying rainbow, Yunbi immediately understood the origin of its name "Hongqiao".

There was a group of workers unloading goods on the dock, and at this time, another large ship was crossing the bridge. Because the boat was too huge, the boatmen used bamboo poles to support them, long poles to hook the bridges, and hemp ropes to hold the boats, dragging them on both sides of the Longjiang River. Others hurriedly put away the canvas and lowered the mast so that the ships could pass through. The big ship passed, and the small boat gave way, but the people who came to the ship were also in a hurry to deliver the goods, pointing and pointing on the side, not knowing what they were shouting. Both inside and outside the boat were busy with the big ship, and even the spectators on the bridge stretched out their heads to sweat for the tense situation of crossing the boat.

The unloaded goods were picked up directly by the vendors who received them, and the bridge was full of various knife and scissor stalls, food stalls and various grocery stalls. The stall owners on the left and right are shouting for customers to come and see their grocery stalls, which is a veritable meeting point for land and water transportation.

In the spring, it is a bustling and noisy place, and it looks like a place for couples to meet.

Mu Wan beckoned in front of her, the merchants on the rich side here are all profitable, and the small traders are only concerned about their livelihoods. The arrival of the four beauties, although it attracted the attention of passers-by, still seemed very insignificant.

Mu Wan smiled: "The flower boat came out later, that is the real artistic conception." Now that twilight is approaching, we will wait here. ”

After the last beautiful red glow in the sky also dissipated with the setting sun, many of the vendors at the pier had already closed their stalls, and the rest seemed to continue to operate the night market.

The lights began to light up in the pavilions on both sides, and soon after, every house was lit up, and the houses on both sides of the Longjiang River were neon. Such a magnificent lamp, even the stars in the sky did not want to appear, because it also looked gloomy, simply hidden, only a soft moon was left in the sky, and the silver light that fell down seemed to be unable to reach the imperial city, and was blocked back.

Longjiang had just taken a breath between day and night, and several cleverly structured, delicate and lovely little flower boats had been rowed in the distance. The spread out colored lights, like the galaxy in the river, stretch endlessly, this is a gluttonous feast of colors.
