Chapter 35: Prepare to visit Red Sun Elementary School
The courtyard on this side of the free market was originally a street of Confucius Temple.
But then the Confucian Temple and other places were all smashed, and many places here were either smashed to the point that they could not live or were burned, so a large piece of open space was vacated for them to set up stalls.
The courtyard that Wang Xin thought was actually a wall built by them later with some of the remaining bricks and stones here.
As for the passage that Wang Daniu wanted to take Wang Xin to see, which was more conducive to escape, it was the escape passage of the original Confucian Temple Street.
Don't think that there was no awareness of fire prevention in ancient times.
There was an escape passage on this side of the Confucian Temple Street very early, of course, it was definitely not called an escape passage at that time.
The passage was built in relative secrecy.
Later, after the transformation of this area into a free market, the people behind the free market further renovated the original escape route.
It's even more hidden, and if you don't have someone to walk through it, you can't touch it at all.
Now Wang Daniu is taking Wang Xin through this escape passage, and of course the process will inevitably talk to the people watching the passage.
The whole passage is not long, and the total is less than 500 meters, and it can go directly from the original free market to the alley on the other side.
The alleys over there are all over there, and after everyone walks here, they can spread out through different lanes, so that they are not too eye-catching.
Wang Daniu, who came out of the escape route, continued to say to Wang Xin: "Look, do you still recognize this alley?"
From here, go straight east and go straight through three alleys, then turn left for three alleys, then turn right for two more alleys, and you will arrive at your aunt's house.
Don't worry if you forget, go straight to the left and walk straight on the street, then turn and continue to the left, and you will go straight to your aunt's house.
And when you get to the main street, you can ask people if you really can't figure out the way. ”
Wang Xin's eyes were really staring.
After taking him through a road, he could barely remember that if he really explained it directly from the verbal level, then he basically couldn't tell how to go.
"Daddy, I can't figure it out, why don't we go through it again!"
"I don't understand, then forget it, let's go back to the free market and buy something, and I'll tell you how to get around later!"
Wang Da Niu is not entangled, if he doesn't understand, he doesn't understand, it's a big deal to turn around and take him to take two different ways to leave.
After speaking, he took Wang Xin back to the previous road and walked back to the free market.
After going back again, Wang Xin was obviously a little more lively.
"Daddy, why are so many children here coming to buy things?"
After reading the escape route, Wang Xin, who returned to the free market, asked with some curiosity.
He had just come all the way, and although he had seen a lot of adults doing business, some small stalls, just bits and pieces, were basically set up by children.
A large number of people who buy things are children.
It's the kind of child who looks no more than ten years old, or eleven or twelve years old at most.
Wang Daniu didn't answer immediately, but picked up Wang Xin, and then attached it to his ear, and whispered: "Sometimes adults are caught shopping here, and they may be fined or something."
If the child is caught, it doesn't matter, the basic lesson is two sentences and he is let go, and he will not accept things.
Therefore, some families let their children go out to buy or sell things. ”
Wang Xin nodded knowingly.
Isn't it equivalent to an alternative, I'm a little and I have a reason, and the juvenile protection law is good.
Since Wang Daniu picked up Wang Xin, it was not easy to put it down again after saying a word, so he continued to hold it for a while.
Looking at some stalls on the side, Wang Daniu suddenly asked, "Sanjin, do you have anything you want, Daddy will buy it for you!"
"No, Daddy, I don't have anything I want, I'm a little tired, why don't you go back!"
After looking around, Wang Xin really didn't have anything he wanted.
The so-called free market here sells things that are actually quite simple, nothing more than chickens, fish, meat, eggs and the like, and in his original era, the farmers' market in any small town could kill this free market in seconds.
Moreover, the number of chicken, fish, meat and eggs sold here is still quite scarce, and when he was passing by just now, Wang Xin even saw two aunts fighting in order to grab the last three eggs in a seller's bamboo basket.
Therefore, compared to buying something that he can buy casually in Taobao here, he now wants to take out something from his Taobao and sell it.
Of course, this kind of thing can only be thought about in my mind for the time being, and if I want to do it, I have to wait for Wang Daniu to leave and find out some of the situation in the town by myself.
Therefore, of course, Wang Xin is not interested in staying in this market now.
"Is there really nothing you want?
If you want it, just say it.
As long as it's not too much, I'll buy it for you, and it's a gift for the start of school!"
Wang Daniu thought that Wang Xin was embarrassed to speak, so he specially mentioned it again.
Wang Xin still shook his head: "No need!"
Daddy, let's go back, or we can go and see what's going on at the school in advance!"
"You want to see what's going on at school!
Alright, let's go now!"
After listening to Wang Xin's words, Wang Daniu was even happier.
He was happy because Wang Xin was sensible, and he was happy because he wanted to see the school in advance, thinking that he wanted to study and loved to learn.
As everyone knows, the thinking of the two has never been on the same line.
Wang Xin said that he wanted to go to see the specific situation of the school, just because he couldn't find any other excuse for a while, and when he was studying before, he also had the habit of looking at the school in advance before signing up.
Since Wang Xin said that he didn't want to buy something, of course Wang Daniu couldn't force him to buy it, so after he bought something he was going to take back, he took Wang Xin and left the free market along the previous escape route.
After coming to the alley again, Wang Daniu took Wang Xin back and forth from the alley twice, taught him all the paths out of the alley, and then took him to the school.
Because his aunt's yard was right next to the school, they could either go to school or go back to his aunt's house.
In addition, it was already noon, and the two of them were a little tired after walking for another morning, so they went back to their aunt's house to eat a little bit and fill their stomachs before going to Red Sun Primary School.
By the time they arrived at Red Sun Primary School, it was already dark, and after Wang Daniu said something to the security guard, he took Wang Xin to walk around Red Sun Primary School.
