Chapter 408: Play
Early in the morning of the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, Zhao Mo took Zhao Qi to the Yongjiahou Mansion.
Of course, it is not the back door, for Zhao Mo, this path is related to the secret of his dealings with his fiancée, so he is not willing to share it with others easily. Anyway, going to Yongjiahou Mansion this time is a justifiable move, he just needs to take the avenue. Starting from the main gate of the annex and going to the gate of Yongjiahou Mansion, walking is just a cup of tea, and taking the car is faster, which can also make Zhao Qi blow a little cold wind.
Zhao Qi was dressed very warmly today, with a thick velvet robe, a royal blue cotton jacket, a small cloaked in stone blue silk with fur edges, and the collar was buttoned to the chin, lining his white little face, which made him more and more pink. He used to be deeply favored by Zhao Shuo, and his appearance was naturally pleasant, but in recent months, he has suffered setbacks one after another, and he has recently suffered a minor illness, so his chin is much sharper, and his complexion is not very good. Although he said that he would not wear filial piety for Lan Xue, Zhao Mo considered that his biological mother was at the first funeral, and it was not good to dress too festively, so he picked out plain clothes for him.
When Niu Shi saw him like this, he first felt distressed: "Why are you so sick? Doesn't it mean that it's just a little wind and cold? Look at this child's pitiful sight, come and sit down, my smoker here is warm." As he spoke, he was about to pull Zhao Qi to him, and then took his warm hands to shake Zhao Qi's little hand, and asked the girl to grab a handful of melon seeds and snacks for Zhao Qi to eat.
Zhao Qi was stunned, he had never been treated like this. In the past, when he was still favored at home, he was also taken by Zhao Shuo to the house of relatives and friends of the clan as a guest, and the ladies of the clan he had seen at that time, even if they liked him and praised him, they were not like this...... Down-to-earth.
Zhao Mo had long been accustomed to the Niu family's style, and he didn't take it seriously, so he saluted Qin Bai and the Niu family very casually, and sat down next to him: "The weather is good today, the wind is not strong, and the sun is shining, maybe it will get warmer and warmer after a while." "It's just a homely chatter that you don't see outside.
Niu's naturally didn't see him outside: "It's fun to go to the temple fair in such weather." If it weren't for the fact that I'm old and don't have as strong legs and feet as I was when I was younger, I would have gone with you. ”
Qin Bai smiled beside him and said, "If Madam wants to go shopping, just go." We don't go that far, we just go around. Brother Jian had already booked a yard in Qianwei Ju, and some of them were places to rest. ”
Niu shook his head with a smile: "That's it, when you're old, why are you going to join in the fun with young people? Where are we there, where can the juniors let go? When you have the spirit, you can accompany me to Zhuangzi again, and go around casually, it's the same." ”
Qin Hanzhen came from behind at this time, and his body was already newly dressed and fully dressed. She smiled and saluted her grandfather and grandmother, and smiled at Zhao Mo, not forgetting to say hello to Zhao Qi.
Zhao Qi was a little at a loss, but he still saluted Qin Hanzhen honestly, and called him "Third Sister Qin". He wanted to call "sister-in-law" directly, but before entering the door, Zhao Mo specially told him how to call Qin Hanzhen and the two sisters, so as not to make Qin Hanzhen shy, of course he would not be so reckless.
Qin Hanzhen cared about Zhao Qi's body for a few words, and asked where his father Qin Ping and his cousin Wu Shaoying were. Qin Bai replied that Wu Shaoying went to the Huang family to pay New Year's greetings, Qin Ping went to Ma's house, and Yu Chengzhi and Hu Kun went to Wang's house to pay New Year's greetings. When a group of their juniors went to the temple fair, they left Qin Bai and Niu at home. Fortunately, there are still Qin An and Xiao Feng this year, and Brother Zhuang is too young, so they don't dare to take him out to blow the wind, but they can accompany Qin Bai and Niu to relieve their boredom.
After a while, Qin Hanzhu also arrived. She was wearing a pink jacket and red cloak, and the cloak was also locked with white fur, fluffy, and hugged a small pink and white face. If it weren't for the different colors of the cloak fabric, she combed the little girl's bun and wore beaded flowers, just like Zhao Qi was like twins, they were all tall, thin, and handsome.
The two children looked at each other for a moment, Zhao Qi reacted first and saluted: "Sixth Sister Qin." "Zhao Mo told him that Qin Hanzhen's cousin would go along.
Qin Hanzhu also reacted, remembering that her sister Qin Hanzhen mentioned that the king of Suning County had a cousin who also lived in another courtyard, but he didn't know that he would also go to the temple fair with them. She returned a salute to Zhao Qi and said, "Cousin Zhao." "This is the name of Zhao Mo and the Qin family's three rooms in the past.
The two children don't talk much, but they are also smart and polite. After seeing each other, at most they looked at each other curiously and did not talk much. Qin Hanzhen and Zhao Mo talked to their grandfather and grandmother for a while, and when they saw that the time was almost up, they were ready to go. Naturally, there will be no shortage of entourage, Qin Hanzhen took out today, in addition to Feng'er, Baiqiao, Lianrui, and Lianshi, as well as Qin Hanzhu's Xiaoqin and Xiaoqi, and Li Zi followed with a few strong and powerful long entourages outside. Needless to say, Zhao Mo's entourage is enough, and there are still personal soldiers. Even if you don't count the manpower on the side of the East Mansion, just the two gangs of the West Mansion and the Suning County Royal Mansion have already outperformed last year. Ah Shou also took people to Qianweiju in advance to do something, which was naturally more foolproof.
Qin Han really felt that this scene was a bit exaggerated. However, Zhao Mo's current identity is not ordinary, of course, it is impossible to be like when he was a child, always in a white dragon fish suit. Besides, they have several children with them, so it's good to be careful.
The group said goodbye to Qin Bai and Niu, and then went out to get into the carriage. They had to go to the gate of the Chengenhou Mansion first, meet Qin Jian and the others, and then set off for the temple fair together.
Qin Jian and his party had already finished dressing and were waiting outside the second gate. However, Qin Hanzhen glanced at it from a distance, and felt that the people in Dongfu seemed to have expanded a lot compared to last year, and it was not just the entourage, how could she see that there were still a few people who did not seem to belong to the Qin family?
It wasn't until Qin Jinhua took Qin Jinchun's hand and got into her carriage together that she knew that Qin Jian had really made an appointment with others today, including Qin Jinhua's fiancé Tang Han and Cai Seventeen of the Cai family's side branch. These two are his friends, it is said that Tang Han was invited by Qin Zhonghai at the signal of his son, and it is also the meaning of letting the future son-in-law meet his daughter, as for Cai Seventeen, he said that it was for Tang Han to be his companion, but Qin Hanzhen clearly remembered that Xiao Feng's proposed that Xiao Xue's family had proposed several children to be Qin Jinchun's husband's alternatives, including the children of the Cai family's side branch, and she inquired afterwards and found out that it was Cai Seventeen.
Qin Hanzhen specially looked at the flush on Qin Jinhua and Qin Jinchun's faces, thinking to himself whether this was really going to the temple fair, or was it a blind date?
Qin Jinhua looked away with some weakness, and didn't dare to look at Qin Hanzhen. Qin Jinchun pursed his lips and smiled, and whispered to Qin Hanzhen: "Second uncle is afraid that the second sister and the second brother-in-law will see each other less, and they will get along strangely, so let them take the opportunity to meet today, get along, and get acquainted." The second aunt didn't like it very much, and felt that it was unseemly, so she complained in the house for a while. Qin Jinhua glanced at her: "What nonsense?!" Qin Jinchun covered his mouth and said with a smile: "You say I am talking nonsense, just let me talk nonsense, anyway, the third sister just understands what is going on." Qin Jinhua's face turned even redder, and he couldn't help but slap Qin Jinchun.
Qin Han really heard it funny, but he didn't object in his heart. She and Zhao Mo often meet alone, not to mention that there are so many people together today, and they are not lonely men and widows, what is there to taboo? Yao's family probably still doesn't like their daughter's family business, so they will get into the horns. However, with Qin Zhonghai in charge, the marriage contract has been decided, even if the Yao family opposes it, there will be nothing wrong.
Qin Jinrong shouted in the other carriage, asking Qin Hanzhu to come over and be her companion. Without Lu Yueniang to accompany her this year, she only felt more and more lonely, so she naturally had to hold on to Qin Hanzhu, a playmate. Qin Hanzhu only looked at Qin Hanzhen, and when she saw Qin Hanzhen nodding, she got out of the car and turned to Qin Jinrong's car. As for Zhao Qi, he was arranged to be in the same car with Qin Jinrong's brother Qin Duan.
The group marched in the direction of Longfu Temple. Just as Qin Hanzhen expected, this year there are a large number of them, the pomp is bigger, and there are more outsiders, so they are not as comfortable as last year. Although it was also surrounded by subordinates, he slowly walked through the temple fair, but it can really only be regarded as a sightseeing scene.
However, there is one benefit that was not available last year, that is, there are Tang Han and Cai Seventeen wandering around the periphery, if Qin Jinhua sees any gadgets of interest in the street stalls, he doesn't have to wait for his mother-in-law to buy them afterwards, naturally someone will immediately spend a few pennies to buy them and send them to her, and the accompanying Qin Jinchun, Qin Jinrong, and Qin Hanzhu will also be stained. The eldest young master of the Tang family is very good at being a man, considerate to his fiancée, and quite polite to his sisters-in-law. Only Qin Hanzhen was the object of Zhao Mo's dedication, and even Li Zi, a capable servant, did not come in handy.
Qin Hanzhen was coaxed by her fiancé's diligence to be happy, where can she still care about talking to her sisters? I have long walked side by side with Zhao Mo, while walking, while enjoying the surrounding scenery, and discussing with Zhao Mo at leisure, what is the difference between this year's stall and last year?
Zhao Qi was carried away by Ah Xing, and he had a lot of fun watching the scenery, but it was a pity that Ah Xing was strict and refused to hold him to leave the entourage of his own soldiers and take a closer look at those stalls. Ah Xing only agreed, he fancied something, and he would send someone to buy it afterwards. But even so, Zhao Qi had a lot of fun, but his brother only cared about talking to his sister-in-law and didn't pay much attention to him, which made him a little lonely. But with Ah Xing by his side, he doesn't lack anything.
He changed his posture in Ah Xing's arms, looked at the stall in the other direction, and became interested in the various big-headed doll masks sold in one of the stalls, and then looked at the windmill on the stall next door, and was about to tell Ah Xing to go back and ask someone to buy him a windmill, when he suddenly saw a few familiar figures flashing behind the stall.
Zhao Qi's face changed suddenly.
How did those people end up here?! Did they come for him?!
