Chapter 88: Go out and step on the spot
You Xiaoya didn't bring many people with her on this trip, a Zhu Ziyu, a little bean and a Xue'er who took care of Jin Yuanyuan, and her destination was Liu's shopkeeper's ready-to-wear shop. Then there is the cloth shop of Lai's shopkeeper in Zhongli County, as well as the four treasures shop and embroidery shop of Qin and Cen in Chongye County.
When going out, in order to avoid extraneous branches, You Xiaoya asked Zhu Ziyu and Xiaodouzi to wait at the side door in advance, and the carriage You Xiaoya used to travel also asked people to prepare an extremely ordinary car, which seemed to be deliberately hiding the relationship between her and the Jin family.
Because of the delay in changing Jin Yuanyuan's little boy's clothes, by the time You Xiaoya and the others came to the side door, Zhu Ziyu had already jumped off the top of the carriage for the third time, trying to persuade Xiaodouzi to go to the yard to see what was going on.
But what he didn't expect was that he had just jumped to the ground, and before he could open his mouth, he saw the simple and elegant figure coming slowly from the verandah of the lush trees, the dusty and elegant and noble demeanor, the outstanding and unhurried gestures, how can such a person make people look away-
As if feeling Zhu Ziyu's amazed and slightly burning eyes, You Xiaoya raised her eyes and looked at him, and her inky black and clear eyes flashed a trace of her usual impatience when she saw his momentary gaze.
"Ah, husband, madam, this, this ......" At this time, Xiaodouzi, who had already checked the carriage three times, also found Zhu Ziyu who seemed to be immobilized with the pestle on the side, and when he looked at him, he was surprised to see him dressed in men's clothes. You Xiaoya, who has an extraordinary bearing, led Jin Yuanyuan and Xue'er, who were also dressed in men's clothes, and walked over.
He had never seen You Xiaoya in men's clothes, and he had never seen Xue'er in men's clothes, so he was a little stunned for a while.
"Madame is a little special today." When You Xiaoya glanced at Zhu Ziyu with some impatient eyes. He came back to his senses from the surprise and shock she had brought him. When You Xiaoya walked in front of them, he unintentionally said such a flattering word to You Xiaoya.
"......" You Xiaoya glanced at him, but that look was fruitful, he was talking nonsense. Then he didn't care what he thought, he lifted the hem of his shirt, stepped into the carriage quite neatly, and then bowed down to hug Jin Yuanyuan.
"Y-you're very, very special today!" Little Beanzi looked at Cher. He smiled at her and said.
"It's, obvious! IāI've changed my clothes! Xue'er blushed, and hurriedly followed You Xiaoya, when she hugged Jin Yuanyuan. She carefully guarded the side, and then jumped into the carriage in a good manner, only when she got into the carriage, she turned her head slightly and glanced at the little bean who was still smirking.
"Let's go" after getting in the car and sitting down. You Xiaoya Qingyue's voice sounded from inside the carriage.
"Yes, yes, ma'am!" Xiaodouzi also came back to his senses at this time. Crisply responded, and then You Xiaoya felt that the carriage shook slightly, but what she didn't expect was that the curtain of the carriage was lifted again the next moment, and then Zhu Ziyu walked in as a matter of course.
"What are you doing here?" You Xiaoya's face was unwavering, and her black and white eyes flashed with a trace of imperceptible impatience.
"Naturally, it's a car!" Zhu Ziyu even answered very naturally.
Hearing his answer, You Xiaoya glanced at him coldly, "Zhu Gongzi thinks Xiaodouzi can drive a carriage at a young age?" ā
"......" listened to You Xiaoya's words. Zhu Ziyu was slightly stunned and said. This woman didn't bring him to be a groom, did she? Look at her like this...... It seems like......
Later, the carriage started, and Zhu Ziyu was extremely sad in his heart, thinking that he was the dignified prince of Qi Zhourui, but now how did he fall to the point of being a groom for a woman?
How could the person in charge of the house who thinks of his dignified shadow of heaven lead a woman by the nose to such a field? Where does this leave his face? Where to put it? Where......
Forget it, don't talk about it, it's all tears, waterfall tears...... Bear with me! As the saying goes, good men don't fight with women, and now that he is under her roof, he should naturally bow his head, and when he finishes his work, this face ......
In a word: he endured!
The south of Jinjia Town is a commercial gathering place, and people from three or four villages around Jinjia Town will come here to buy things or do some small business in the town, and the time of this meeting is fixed on the 258th of every month.
It just so happened that today was June 28th, and it was the day of the market, but because You Xiaoya and the others went out late, and the summer sun was quite hot, when they arrived in Nanshi, there were not many pedestrians on the street except for some small vendors with tarpaulins.
Look at the small food shops, tea shops and restaurants on both sides, it is really lively. Of course, this is understandable, after all, on such a big day, it is still necessary to find a place to eat and drink, and to avoid a sign and rest.
You Xiaoya and their carriage traveled all the way, not in a hurry, just enough for her to take in the situation of this southern city one by one. The whole area of Nanshi is not small, criss-crossing the streets of houses, there are shops and houses, the appearance of the houses is next to each other, at a glance the old and the new are different, the height is uneven.
I can't say it's chaotic or not, it seems that everywhere in the past is the same. So if you don't know it, I'm afraid that if you walk into this town, you won't be able to get out if you don't have time.
But this is not what You Xiaoya is worried about, after all, she has not had the leisure to come to this place and trap herself in it.
The carriage went all the way forward, passing through three streets, and You Xiaoya on these three streets was roughly divided into categories, such as this to the edge of the town, that is, when they first entered the town, that area was mostly livestock and poultry for sale.
Chickens, ducks, geese, dogs, cattle, sheep, pigs and horses are quite complete, of course, You Xiaoya also roughly came to a conclusion from here, in fact, this Jinjia Town is not as poor as she imagined.
At least in ancient times, when meat consumption was still a bit luxurious, so many livestock could be bought and sold in the bazaar, which is also a disguised proof that the people here can not only eat meat, but also eat meat.
Does this also prove that in fact, the people of Jinjia Town, they still have spending power?
Further inside, the two sides of the street gradually become trading places for all kinds of household goods, mostly bamboo baskets or wooden household items. You Xiaoya took a cursory look at the past, and was really amazed by this fine weaving technique. (To be continued......)
PS: The street structure in this chapter is based on a town in a certain Yan's hometown, hmm...... Not all, but some~~
