Chapter 81: The State City

The carriage of the Fang family was full, and there were Aunt Tian, Fang Sanniu, Sister Fang and two little dolls, as well as some dry food and steamed cakes made by Aunt Tian for Da Niu and Erniu, spring shirts and summer clothes, and two bags of grain.

It took half a day to go from Fangshi Town to Xingfu County, and when he walked outside Xingfu City, the second aunt of the Fang family had already taken the second sister Fang and Niu'er to wait in the town outside the city, and when he saw his father-in-law and his party, the second aunt hurriedly greeted him and said that a place for lunch had been arranged, so that everyone could get off the car and eat something before they could hurry.

So men, women and children got out of the carriage and followed the second aunt into a hotel, the second aunt was also careful, for the sake of a few cardamom cousins, did not let everyone sit in the lobby to eat, but chartered a private room with two round tables, the second sister Fang and Niu'er sat in it, saw the family coming, immediately got up to pour tea, and went to ask the guy to quickly bring hot water to wash everyone's hands, and ordered that the food could be served.

Because they had to hurry, they only ate food and did not drink alcohol, and after eating a lunch, they sat down and drank two cups of tea before setting off on the road.

This will add the carriage of the second aunt and his wife, a line of three carriages, in front of the eldest aunt riding a donkey to lead the way, and then the relevant Jie rode a horse to escort the formation, walking on the official road is also quite imposing.

When night fell, I walked to a place called Mingquan Town, and the second aunt arranged to stay at the Xinglong Inn at the head of the town.

Although the second aunt of the Fang family has tried his best to plan for the little girls and give the best guest room to the Jinxiu sisters, after all, the conditions of the inn in the town are limited, fortunately, Jinxiu has already prepared, and has its own bedding and other utensils, so it is not uncomfortable to live outside for a night or two.

The next morning, Aunt Tian borrowed the kitchen stove of the inn to cook some porridge, steamed the steamed buns she brought, and fried a pot of bacon and dried radish.

In the afternoon, when they finally arrived in the state city, Fang Da Niu and Fang Er Niu were waiting outside the city gate, and the moment they saw their parents and relatives, the brothers had a smile on their faces.

Guan Jie sent the Tian family and the Jinxiu sisters to the house rented by Fang Da Niu before saying goodbye and leaving, saying that he was going to a friend's house for dinner and wine, and he would come back tomorrow to meet everyone.

The house rented by Fang Da Niu and Fang Erniu brothers is in Anren Lane, Yongfu Street, east of the city, which is a very large courtyard, with more than ten rooms in the main house and east and west wings, and there is room for everyone to live in.

Settled down, Fang Da Niu from the restaurant booked the table early also arrived, flesh and blood and close relatives and siblings in a different place to reunite together is extremely happy, Fang Erniu specially prepared firecrackers and fireworks, and Sanniu led the little dolls in the yard to ignite, the gorgeous fireworks illuminated the happy faces of the relatives, accompanied by laughter and cheers, so warm and lively.

Fang Da Niu is a master in the workshop that makes soap and soap, and he has to invest in the weight of rich businessmen, Fang Erniu followed Da Niu to Zhou City to study in the school hall, this is the meaning of Aunt Tian, the brothers can take care of each other together, originally Erniu also wanted to find something to do to make money, but after listening to the mention of Jinxiu, I felt that reading and literacy was indeed very important, Er Niu and Sanniu settled down to study, and the fame and scientific examination were not forced, and they could read and hyphenate and learn arithmetic.

Because Jinxiu has confessed, Fang Da Niu only works, and usually does not deliberately interact too closely with rich investors, so this time the family came, Da Niu did not let the rich businessmen know, and he also knew that his parents could not learn the politeness of people in the city, and the Jinxiu sisters were people in the boudoir, and they would not like to deal with others.

Fang Da Niu once lived in the county seat of his brother-in-law's house, saw the beautiful lanterns hanging on the street of the Shangyuan Festival in the city, came to live in the state city for a few months, he also knew a few friends, there was a friend who had a workshop for making zuò lanterns at home, and contracted tens of thousands of lanterns for the Shangyuan Festival to be purchased by the government. Try your best to persuade everyone to come to the state city to celebrate the Yuan Festival and enjoy the lanterns.

Fang Da Niu was very happy to reunite the relatives, and did not run to have fun by himself like the second and third cows, but accompanied his parents and relatives, pouring water and tea for everyone from time to time, and answering and laughing with everyone happily.

Jinxiu expressed satisfaction with such a big bull, after all, he was only fifteen or sixteen years old, and suddenly there was such a big opportunity, and the situation changed, but he was not arrogant and impetuous, and he grew up with the trend without losing his nature, which is very rare.

Tian's mother and daughter and Uncle Tian arranged to live in the West Chamber, four rooms in the West Chamber, Uncle Tian and Jinxiu each lived in a small room, Tian took Jinyu and Jinyun to live in two merged rooms, some people in the city do not like Pankang, there is no kang in each house in this house, but the brazier is not cold, the cow is very careful, a few days in advance, please have two mothers-in-law responsible for the sprinkling and cleaning of the house, the newly bought bedding and bed sheets have all been washed and dried, comfortable to use, and the carriage for two days is tired enough, after the big guy rests, Almost all of them are dark and sweet, and they don't wake up until dawn.

Aunt Tian was used to hard work, so she got up early in the morning to stop Da Niu and didn't let him go to the restaurant to buy breakfast, rolled up her sleeves and went down to the kitchen to make breakfast, Sister Fang handed over the child to Jinyun to take care of, and she also went into the kitchen to help.

Today is the Shangyuan Festival, people in Fangshi Town eat steamed buns in the morning, eat Lantern Festival in the evening, the Lantern Festival filling is sweet and salty, there are meat and vegetarian, naturally it is fresh and freshly made to be delicious, Aunt Tian wants to make Lantern Festival for the children, Latian went to the meat and vegetable market to buy ingredients, the place is not familiar, Fang Da Niu and Fang Erniu will certainly not let them mess around, this side of the splendid also instigated Jinyu Jinyun to shout to go to the street to play, Fang Da Niu will go out to the street people into two groups, one of the brothers accompanied a group, Fang Da Niu with the old, two Niu with the young, The first time I came to the state city, and I followed such a large group of relatives, and it was not good to create chaos for the big cow and two cows, so I would honestly "follow the group" to travel for the time being, anyway, if I wanted to stay in the state city for a few days, I would always have the opportunity to go out alone.

In the end, the state city is much higher than the county seat, and it is a festival, and the street is dozens of times more lively than usual, but seeing the shops pù Linlang, the road side is also full of stalls without a little gap, colorful and all kinds of goods, you come and I go shoulder to shoulder crowds, even Jinxiu has seen the crowded stampede in the square are shocked, not to mention Jinyu, Jinyun and the two cousins of the Fang family, under the mention of Fang Erniu, everyone agreed to give up this most prosperous and lively Xingyang Street, change the route to another less crowded street to walk.
