Zhou could only hear intermittently "The county lord of Xinchuan is just a widow......

"At that time, he will become a secretary of the ministry, if he has to be knighted ......" and so on, his heart was in a trance, and his face was full of tears.

Although her husband has been neglecting her for many years, after all, they are a young husband and wife, they keep to themselves, filial piety to their mother-in-law, and love their concubines.

She really couldn't figure it out, but she thought it was ridiculous.

They did everything they could, but they couldn't remember that the bedroom next door was hers, and the commanding person, who didn't know that others were living with tears in their voices, didn't know the sound insulation effect of this room, and it was difficult to prevent the partition wall from having ears if the sound was lowered.

It can be seen that the dark room is deceiving, and the eyes of God are like electricity, which is true.

Zhou was like an initiation for a while, and then felt bored for a while, and slowly slid to the ground, only to feel dizzy, and finally lost consciousness.

For a long time, for a long time, it was pitch black all around, and I faintly heard a kind shouting sound from the alley:

"Huai dumplings...... Sell Huai dumplings, cook and sell, Bao Nong is delicious......"

Zhou seems to have returned to his mother's tea soup shop, and there is a conspicuous Huai dumpling noodle stall on the façade, and it is the eldest brother Zhou Foyin who is in charge of the spoon.

Although the family background is ordinary, it was also the pearl of the parents' palms, and it seems to see the various expressions of his mother calling "Ah Nan", tears slowly oozed from the corners of Zhou's eyes, wetting the wooden floor, and opened his eyes quietly.

The sky was already bright, and the wooden lattice branch was opened to pick up the window. She poked her head out: "Let's have a bowl of dumplings." ”

The little trader carrying the burden at the bottom raised his head, revealing a vicissitudes of life and a kind face.

Although he wears a hat, he wears coarse linen clothes. But it's also clean and tidy.

"Madam, do you want to add onion and garlic?" It speaks with an authentic hometown accent.

Zhou was in a trance, nodded his head, and the figure of his father floated in front of him.

The houses of the people who lived in these alleys were kept in hanging baskets every day, just in case they could buy flowers, oil, oil, salt, sauce and vinegar and the like, so she went to find them and put a piece of broken silver in the basket. Lowered it from the window.

The peddler was stunned when he saw the broken silver in the basket, and rubbed his hand on his apron. A little embarrassed, "A small business, there is no nickname in hand, and I can't break the lady's silver." ”

Zhou stared at him. also used the hometown dialect to say: "The old man's native accent is kind. No need to look for it. ”

The peddler took up the broken silver and folded his hands together to thank him, and unhurriedly opened the door of the stove at one end of the burden, and took out a dozen or so dumplings from the drawer at the other end.

Zhou watched this person's movements intently, and his heart missed his parents and brothers more and more.

The man cooked the dumplings and put them in a sea bowl. Add a spoonful of soup and put chopped green onions. "Be careful. He put a bowl of jade-like dumplings into the basket, pulled the rope and motioned for her to pull it up.

Zhou Shi lifted the basket up, just held it in his hand, and saw that the vendor below had already packed up his burden, picked it up again, and waved his hand and said: "The lady gives too much money, I will come often, if the lady wants to eat again, just say hello......"

swayed towards the mouth of the alley, his steps were still slightly lame, but full of life.

Zhou took the dumplings on the table, and subconsciously alarmed the mother-in-law next door, and listened for a long time, but there was no movement at the other end, thinking that the yard was boring, so the little maids carried it to the river not far away.

Zhou exhaled, sat down and quietly scooped one into his mouth.

A familiar taste that warmly burns into the heart.

She finished eating a bowl of Huai dumplings silently, an unusually bright flame gradually danced in her eyes, and a bright smile appeared on her face, staring at the wall, as if she could see through:

"Husband, let's live and die together......"

"Someone from my hometown? What are they coming? Don't you think our room is not crowded enough? In the courtyard, Mrs. Ruan's angry roar sounded again.

I only heard Ruan Er respond in a low voice: "Fifth uncle, they said that they went to Beijing to play, since they are from their own family, they must have found it, and they found Zhu Yifang in front, and it was brought over by the boy from the family sent by Mr. Ke at the other end." ”

"Old Fifth ......" Mrs. Ruan knocked on a water tank in the yard for some reason, making a loud "clang" sound and evil voice, "What about Zhou?" Where did the death go? Is there still a daughter-in-law who is a daughter-in-law now? If you don't come early in the morning, don't say anything, and there is no one in sight, ask her to send someone, you don't show up for me......"

Ruan Er responded, "Bingmei, where is the big grandmother?" I think it's too late, so I'm going to call it down! ”

Zhou stood up, heard the sound of footsteps in the hall, and knew that Bingmei, the girl who was helping in the kitchen, was supported by an envoy, and unhurriedly opened the wardrobe and picked out a bright new dress from it.

February 15 in Jinling is the flower dynasty festival, it is the time of spring in the south of the Yangtze River, a hundred flowers are in bloom, it is warm and cold, on this day Kyoto is prevalent in the outing banquet, the Sao people ink or the poetry will be written, the wine is chanted among the flowers, the women will also go together to enjoy the flowers, cut the five-colored paper and hang it on the flower branches and say "enjoy the red", and put the flower lantern at night in the place where there is the river.

The flower temple in the west of the city has inexplicably become another form of Yuelao Temple, and the incense is prosperous.

On the Flower Dynasty Festival in the first year of Yongshao, the young lady of the noble and hundreds of officials, the most important thing to do was to get the flower god sticker of the Yasukuni Mansion.

It is said that Mrs. Yasukuni paid 30,000 yuan in silver and sent people to decorate the "first rock of the Yangtze River" -- Swallow Rock, where a grand "butterfly fluttering party" was to be held.

Such a grand event is rare once in decades, and Mrs. Yasukuni was in the limelight for a while, temporarily replacing the new crown princess and becoming the most talked about figure among the nobles of Jinling. Everyone wanted to get a few more posts to invite relatives and friends to go with them, and the threshold was broken from the day the Yasukuni Mansion released the news.

The Yasukuni Mansion is the biggest upstart today, and ordinary people naturally can't get in.

Ruan Lao Junjun is finally the mother of the servant of the ministry, and he is used to going to the mansion again, and when he brought the Zhou family to visit him, although there was a long queue in front of the Yasukuni Mansion, he was directly invited into the Yongmu Hall where Mrs. Yasukuni was.

Because the Yasukuni Mansion released this news on the 10th day of the Lunar New Year, the time was still short, so many families were afraid that they would not be able to get the invitation, and when the Ruan family's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law arrived, it was already full of ladies and ladies from various prefectures.

Mrs. Ruan felt that the 10th day of the second lunar month was worth careful consideration.

She remembered clearly that it was also that day when the good news came from the East Palace, announcing that the crown princess was pregnant.

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were invited to the main hall, and Mrs. Ruan was also an active person, and at a glance she saw the county lord of Cangnan sitting on the left guest seat, and the first one on the right was the eldest daughter-in-law of Yao Ge's hometown, and she was the wife of Yushi Zhongcheng, the second seat of Yushitai.
