Chapter 244
Not long after, the legendary 'top of the white dew' restaurant arrived, if you say this restaurant, the outside looks actually with the new 'Rong Ao Building' in the north, the same white jade stone steps, carved beams and paintings. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Miao Zhi was helped out of the carriage by Yuan Hongxuan, and glanced at the building a few times, only to find that the layout in this building is very novel and chic, not like a place to eat, but more like an elegant teahouse with poetry.
Yuan Hongxuan said something to the entourage behind him, and the man trotted upstairs.
"I've already asked someone to go up and pass the word, and Brother Yuqian will come down later. It's rare for us to come out once, so it's better to go around the streets and sacrifice festivals, and the people are estimated to be lively until late. ”
Yuan Hongxuan intimately helped Miaozhi close the collar of the fox fur cloak, and her eyes were gentle.
With a lot of effort, Shen Yuqian came down, wearing a water-blue robe, wearing a brocade crown, and his jade face and face were beautiful.
Coming down with him was an elderly white-bearded old man, who was dressed in an ink-colored robe, covered with a fur jacket, with wide eyebrows and a good face, and only a pair of sharp eyes. Looking further back, there are two tall and sturdy retinues.
"Big brother!" Miao Zhi rushed forward in a few steps, only to naturally pull Shen Yuqian's cuffs.
"Presumably this is the little sister of the saint, Miss Miao Zhi!" The old man stroked the white beard on his chin, and said with a smile on his face.
"Well, it's this girl!" Xian Yuqian couldn't help but scratch the bridge of Miaozhi's nose, his movements were intimate, and his tone was full of joy.
"Childe, the old man is polite." Before Miao Zhi could ask who this person was, the old man had already stepped forward and respectfully bowed towards Yuan Hongxuan.
"Mr. Pan doesn't have to be polite, since he is outside the palace, he doesn't need to pay attention to this." Yuan Hongxuan waved his hand and said politely.
It turned out that this old man was the old man Pan Fan, Pan Yiqian's grandfather, and Shen Fengyi's uncle.
Why did he come along? Is it for Pan Yiqian?
Miao Zhi didn't have time to think about it, so she hurriedly stepped forward and blessed Pan Fan politely, "Little girl Miao Zhi, I've seen Pan Lao!" ”
"Eh, this can't be helped!" Pan Fan was taken aback, and hurriedly waved his hand sideways, only receiving half a salute.
The group exchanged pleasantries for a while, and then walked towards the most prosperous part of the street.
As soon as she left the palace, Miao Zhi became a wild horse that escaped from the wild, and she no longer had the image of a lady in the past, she jumped happily between Yuan Hongxuan and Shen Yuqian, looking very cute.
The Guangnei Street in Twilight City is divided into three sections, and the first section is the first section that just came in from the gatehouse at the entrance of the street, which is where the 'Top of the White Dew' restaurant is located, where most of them are restaurants and inns. Walking further in, starting from a small shop called 'Yu Kee Tofu', you will arrive at the second section of this Guangnei Street, and you will see all small workshops selling everything. Further in, there is no obvious dividing line, as long as you see a lot of stall vendors pushing carts, you will arrive at the third section of Quang Nai Street, which is the most prosperous place.
At the beginning of the day, the street was lit up, surrounded by hawkers, Miao Zhi was dazzled, and began her 'buy, buy, buy' mode again.
As we walked, the street narrowed noticeably, and there were many more people on the street than on the street in front of us. Most of the people who came and went were ordinary people, dressed in coarse cloth clothes, with a few children around them.
"Hongxuan, why do they all have a small cloth bag sewn on their chests, what is that?" Miao Zhi looked at the fact that most of the people had an egg-sized cloth bag sewn on their chests, but the size of a child's body, and she couldn't help but ask curiously.
"The cloth bag is called the blessing bag, which contains some grains such as sorghum, soybeans, and wheat, and the children's blessing bag will also put some seasoning plants such as peppercorns and spices into it. Although TECO is a festival for people to worship heaven and earth and pray for good weather, this festival is also used to pray for the safety of their families and children. They sew a small amount of the sacrifices that should have been placed on the altar on their bodies, just so that the gods can also take care of them, but in fact, it is also another kind of beautiful sustenance. As for the children who put those flavored plants with smell, they hope that their children will not only be safe, but also have a human touch and be loved by everyone. ”
Pan Fan on the side explained to Miao Zhi in no hurry, and several wrinkles could be seen on both sides of his slightly narrowed eyes.
"I see!" Miao Zhi nodded, and couldn't help but sigh again and again, the gods really occupied a very high position in the hearts of the ancients.
"I didn't expect Mr. Pan to know us so much about Beixin!"
"The old man came to Beixin with friends on the rivers and lakes a few years ago, and he happened to dare to go to this early spring sacrifice at that time, so he knew a thing or two about it!"
The conversation between the two is very usual, but it always feels weird to Miao Zhi's ears.
The situation between the two countries is now basically stable, although there is nothing to do on the surface, but secretly they still have to compete, Miao Zhi is inconvenient to get involved, so she simply pretends that she doesn't know anything and continues to shop her street.
Didn't go far, the group arrived at a dough pinching man's stall, the vendor was very good, at this time it was a pretty girl with a pink face, I saw that he skillfully took the various colors of dough under the cloth towel, dexterous hands with a wooden stick, the woman's facial features appeared.
Miao Zhi stood aside and watched intently, only remembering when she was a child. On the street in front of the rental house where she and her mother lived, there was always a gray-haired old man in a somewhat white-washed blue overalls, sitting on a long bench with a simple wooden box in front of him that could be opened and closed.
It's also so ingenious.,A few clicks can pinch a character or animal.。 At that time, she begged her mother for a long time before she bought a robot cat face, which she cherished, but it was not easy to preserve, and it cracked and disappeared in a few days.
"What? Like? Yuan Hongxuan saw that Miao Zhi's gaze was always fixed on the noodle who had been pinched for more than half of the time, and couldn't help asking.
"Yes, I like it!"
After paying the money, Miao Zhi couldn't put it down with her face, and she was still looking at it carefully after walking for a long time. Several men deliberately surrounded him in the middle, and could only shrug helplessly.
At this moment, a brilliant fireworks bloomed in the night sky ahead, and then the crowd of people, who had been moving slowly, suddenly surged in one direction.
"Look, there are fireworks over there, they must be lit by the 'Manyuan Spring' on Guangwai Street." A vendor shouted loudly and ran out from behind a stall obscured by the eaves and pointed to the sky.
At this time, several ceremonial flowers bloomed in the sky one after another, and most of people's eyes were focused on the dark night sky, but the steps under their feet did not stop. (To be continued.) )
