When Lu Chengyong heard this, he raised his eyebrows and asked, "Since this is the case, why don't I know Your Excellency?" Shen Changyu looked at Xia Chunchao and said with a light smile: "Presumably, Mrs. Zun has some unspeakable difficulties. ”

Lu Chengyong saw that these words were slightly provocative, very rude, and angry. Before he could speak, Xia Chunchao got up and said to her husband: "Xianggong, this is my mother's brother." Our two elders have had a lot of contact in the past, so we know each other. Lu Chengyong listened to his wife's words, and then bowed his head and said: "It was originally a world brother, I don't know what to call it?" Shen Changyu arched his hands and said, "Under the surname Shen, the grass word is Xugu." After that, he sat down on a stool in front of the table without asking the two of them. He took a handkerchief and handed it to him, and he took it and wiped his face.

Lu Chengyong saw that this person sat down on his own initiative, and he was angry, but he was in front of his wife, and it was inconvenient to attack. The tea house was overcrowded, and there was no second empty table, so it was inconvenient to get him up. At the moment, he ignored this person, and held the pot with his own hand to refill the tea bowl with his wife.

Xia Chun smiled at him, raised his glass and ate two bites, then took a piece of horseshoe roll from his plate and took a bite. In order to save materials and meet the current taste, white sugar is replaced with jaber, lard mixed with soybean oil, and the dim sum is inevitably turbid and too sweet. Xia Chunchao frowned slightly, but he didn't speak, and stopped after eating half a roll.

Lu Chengyong was a rough man and didn't notice it. That Shen Changyu has been crawling in the business for many years, and has developed the ability to observe words and feelings, and when he saw the clues, he only smiled slightly.

After a while, the Shen family asked the tea house for a pot of Pu'er, and Dr. Tea brought the tea, and Shen Changyu instructed his family to bring the dim sum they brought and put two plates. When everyone looked, they saw that one dish was golden silk dates, and the other was almond cake. The golden silk candied dates are full of flesh, red and bright in color, and they are indeed of the highest quality. The almond crisp is also golden and crispy, full of sweetness, and makes people feel appetizing.

Xia Chun knew that his family made a living, and Lu Cheng was brave enough to pay attention to the snacks and never paid attention to them. Shen Changyu saw that his family had set the plates, so he greeted him with a smile, ignored others, and let Xia Chunchao say: "This tea house is simple, the dim sum is rough, and it is inedible. This is made at home, but it can barely be eaten, Sister Xia and try it. After that, he actually pushed the saucer to the Xia Chun Dynasty.

Lu Chengyong's heart was hot when he saw it, he blocked his hand and smiled at him: "Thank you Brother Shi for your kindness, but Neiko never likes sweets." Shen Changyu smiled lightly: "I have been friends with Sister Xia for more than ten years, so I naturally know my sister's tastes. Although she doesn't like sweets, these two snacks are often eaten at home every day, and they don't hinder her. Without saying a word, he said: "Why, Lu Gongzi doesn't even know the taste of his own lady?" ”

Lu Chengyong has been away for many years, and he is a rough person, so he has never paid much attention to these small sections. At this time, when he heard this, he really asked for this Shen Changyu. He was not good at words, and he was speechless for a while.

Just when the two of them were at a stalemate, they only heard Xia Chunchao say warmly on the side: "Thank you Shen Gongzi for your kindness, but I have been suffering from dental problems recently and dare not eat sweets indiscriminately." As he spoke, he paused slightly, and said: "Although our two families have some old friendships, but I am now the daughter-in-law of the Lu family, so it is better to check this title." Then he asked with a smile: "Shen Gongzi is here to sweep his sister-in-law's grave today?" Has the matter of continuation? When Lu Chengyong heard this, he said with great interest: "It turns out that Brother Shen Shi is a woman who is waiting to be continued, and what kind of family is he looking for?" If you don't think it's deficient, don't worry about it, and our husband and wife can help the world brother pay attention to one or two. ”

Shen Changyu first said a few words for Xia Chunchao, and when he saw that the couple was of the same heart, he was not annoyed, but only smiled faintly and said: "The family affairs are complicated, and this matter is not in a hurry. I am bent on finding a person who is suitable, otherwise I will get one at random, and it will be boring to deal with it every day. As he spoke, those peach blossom eyes only swirled around Xia Chunchao's body.

Xia Chunchao saw that he was rude, and bowed his head and said nothing. Lu Chengyong nodded and said: "Childe's words are true, being a husband and wife is a lifelong thing, and you must not be careless." For example, my wife and I, although it is a marriage set by the family, fortunately, we have the same temperament, love and harmony, otherwise I don't know how to be distressed. As he spoke, he took his wife's soft hand and held it in his hand. Xia Chunchao's face flushed slightly, and he smiled silently.

Shen Changyu saw it in his eyes, didn't say a word, smiled lightly, and raised his glass to eat tea. After a while, when the rain had eased a little, he got up and went first.

After Shen Changyu left, Lu Chengyong asked with a calm face, "Who is this guy?" How can you be so rude! Without asking a word, he sat here with a big lama. is clearly a female dependent, looking at it with such straight eyebrows, how can there be such an impolite person in the world? It's said that it's a world friend, why don't I look like it?! Xia Chunchao said: "This person's name is Shen Changyu, his family lives next to my mother's family, and his ancestors also have some friendships. In the past, when I was at home, my aunt of the Shen family often brought him to my house to walk around, and there were not so many taboos in the shallow and narrow households, so I and he have known each other since childhood, and they are called brothers and sisters when they are young. Since I married into the family, I have never interacted with his family again. Even if you go back to your parents' house and you haven't seen it, don't be angry. ”

Lu Chengyong saw his wife's explanation, even though he drank his vinegar in his heart, he still said: "How can I be angry with you? I'm just annoyed that this guy doesn't know how to count, and I'm still sitting here, so I'm going to laugh with you. ”

After sitting like this for a while, the rain outside the window cleared, and the Lu family and his wife got up, paid for the tea, went out to board the car, and returned to the city.

On the way, Xia Chunchao discussed with her husband and said: "Delayed by this rain, it's almost noon at this time, let's go to eat first, and then go to the temple fair." It's not too late to watch the play another day - if you want to watch the play again, I'm afraid it will disperse, and I will buy something for Sister Hong by mistake. Lu Chengyong said with a smile: "Today I am going out with you to relax, you can do whatever you want in your heart, why worry about her." Xia Chunchao smiled and said, "It's not all for my sister, I also have a few things to buy." Lu Chengyong rarely refuted his wife's words, so he nodded in response.

At that moment, the carriage entered the city and drove straight to the front of the Baixiangzhai store.

Lu Chengyong put down his wife, Xia Chunchao got off the car, and when he raised his eyes, he saw a lake blue wine flag in front of the store, and a large pot was placed on the door, in which three or five pairs of sheep racks were boiling, steaming, the white soup was boiling, the aroma was overwhelming, and the store was full of people.

This Bai Xiang Zhai is famous in Beijing, the owner of the shop has lived in the western Xinjiang for more than ten years, and the local master has learned the good craft of concocting mutton, the store steamed lamb, sauce mutton bones, fried mutton tail, mutton dumplings, are all superb in Beijing. On weekdays, it is overcrowded, and when the fifteenth day of the new year is in the city, there is nowhere to stand. Fortunately, Lu Chengyong and his wife were hindered by the heavy rain, and it was already past noon when they arrived at the store, and there were still two empty tables in the store. When the bartender saw the guest coming to the door, he hurriedly greeted him and led the family of three to sit inside.

Lu Chengyong asked for two catties of mutton dumplings, half a catty of mutton bones, and one catty of white-cut mutton, and asked Xia Chunchao to order food. Xia Chunchao added a few vegetables and vegetables, sent the bartender, and complained: "Wouldn't it be a waste if you order so much meat and can't eat it for a while?" Lu Chengyong said with a smile: "I have been in the army all these years, and I have eaten as much as I can." If there is any leftover, just pack it up and give it to the followers to eat. When Xia Chunchao heard this, he didn't say much.

After a while, the meals were served one after another, and the couple moved the chopsticks together, and the meat was really fragrant, and the name was well deserved.

After the meal, Xia Chunchao discussed with Lu Chengyong: "There are many people in the city, it is inconvenient to take a car, and the family members who follow them have been running around for a long time, so it is better to ask them to eat and wait here." When we're done shopping, we'll take the car back. Lu Chengyong said: "This is also very good, but it has just rained, and the ground is muddy, so I am afraid of staining your shoes." ”

At that moment, Xia Chunchao took the plate of mixed meat dishes left on the table, asked the store for two catties of dumplings, took them to eat with his family, and told them to wait here, so he walked to the street with her husband and girl.

Today is Qingming, just as the city is out of the meeting, although after a heavy rain, the vendors and pedestrians, after hiding from the rain, gradually came out to jump. There is an endless stream of red men and green women on the streets.

When Xia Chunchao walked around with her husband, she saw that those stalls were selling steamed cakes and food, rouge gouache, cloth and satin, and even calligraphy and painting antiques that no one wanted, incense burners, incense ashes, and all kinds of gadgets, which were not very novel. After watching it once, the two stood in front of a noodle stall, and there were all kinds of famous noodle people on the stall, such as Sun Wukong, Zhu Bajie, Yueli Chang'e, etc., each Fu was painted in powder and lifelike.

Xia Chunchao was interesting when he saw this person, so he pulled his husband's sleeve to show him. When Lu Chengyong saw it, he had an idea in his heart, so he asked the vendor: "Uncle, can you pinch a living person?" The man replied, "Then why can't you?" Who is the guest officer going to pinch? Lu Chengyong said: "You pinch one of the two of us, and I will count your money for the four faces." ”

When the vendor heard this, he raised his eyes and looked at the two of them, not to mention that he took all kinds of dough mud from a few jars with his big hands, flew up and down, and instantly formed a pair of people and handed them forward. Lu Chengyong took the noodle and handed it to his wife and said with a smile: "You can take it and play with it." Xia Chunchao saw that this person was pinched very finely, and the faces of the two were very expressive, and even the folds of their clothes and skirts were inconsistent, and they couldn't help but be secretly surprised. Seeing these two people holding hands together, they were very intimate and warm, and they felt slightly embarrassed, and they blushed and said nothing when they pinched their hands.

Lu Chengyong paid the money and walked forward with his wife. Xia Chunchao was worried about buying sweat towels with Sister Lu Hong, so he said that he would go to West Street.

The three of them walked a few steps, and suddenly there was a commotion in front of them, only to see pedestrians on the road hurriedly dodging to both sides of the road, and someone shouted sharply: "Horse startled, get out of the way!" ”

Before the three members of the Lu family knew what had happened, they saw a tall horse in front of them, dragging a carriage, and running towards this side like crazy. The horse's mouth and nose were foaming, very frenzied, and there was no one in his eyes, running all the way, trampling on countless stalls. There was no one on the wheel, and I thought it had been thrown down, and I didn't know if there was anyone in the car. The old and weak woman among the pedestrians, who could not avoid it, was about to be trampled by the horses' hooves.

When Lu Chengyong saw this, he hurriedly pushed his wife into the roadside shop and stepped forward. Xia Chunchao couldn't stop pulling him, so he had to watch him go.
