Chapter 537: New Year's Goods, Uninvited Guests
Xu Xuan pulled Bai Suzhen to walk on the street, looking at the items placed on the roadside stalls, but Xiaoqing quickly chased after him and asked angrily, "This old master writes generally, is there anything wrong with what we said, even if the officials use his pen and ink to write, they don't need to give him those many copper coins." ’
Xu Xuan shook his head when he heard this, "Qing'er, you see that the weather is so cold, are you willing to clean the courtyard tomorrow?" ”
Xiaoqing shook her head when she heard Xu Xuan say this, but thinking about what she had caused in recent days, she explained, "There are still Bai Fu them at home, they can do this work, I can keep an eye on them and promise not to let them be lazy."
Xu Xuan couldn't help laughing when he heard this, according to Xiaoqing's previous character, there is a high probability that he will not explain, saying this today, I am afraid that there is still a sense of guilt for himself, Xu Xuan is not good at saying anything, just smiled and said, "You don't want to work at home in this weather, the old man is still out to set up a stall to write at such an age, he must have a difficult life, maybe he still has relatives at home, waiting for him to write Spring Festival couplets every day with a meager income to support the family, you and I can be considered to win, this old man is afraid that it is difficult to do business today, and the people in the family are afraid that the New Year will not be good, Just a few words are not worth it."
Xiaoqing wanted to say something, but at this time, Bai Suzhen looked back and said, "Qing'er, what the official said makes sense, you are really reckless in today's matter."
According to Xiaoqing's past personality, how can he be convinced? was about to argue a few words, but when he thought of the troubles he had caused in recent days, he shrunk his neck and didn't dare to say anything more.
Xiaoqing's side of the flag stopped, but Xu Xuan was a little unaccustomed, everyone came to a lantern stall at this time, only to see that this lantern has palace lights, horse lanterns, yarn lights, umbrella lights, chandeliers, etc., red colors, but looking festive, Bai Suzhen looked at everyone a little dull, looking at this lantern, but said with a smile, "Official, I have seen the festival, although there are many people living in our house, but there is less atmosphere of the New Year, we might as well buy more lanterns to go back, hang them at home and look festive." ”
Xu Xuan thought about it, isn't that the case, all the way, the residents and shops on the side of the road have already hung lanterns and posted Spring Festival couplets out, it seems that there is also a New Year's atmosphere, but his own home is a little less atmosphere, nodded at the moment, Xiaoqing on the side has already raised his spirits at this time, pulled Bai Suzhen to the lantern stall, and began to pick up the lanterns.
Not long after, at the instigation of Xiaoqing, they bought more than a dozen lanterns, although there were three of them, but they couldn't move back, but the vegetable vendor who set up a stall next to them, seeing Xu Xuan's embarrassment, said with a smile, "Doctor Xu, I live on your side, why don't I bring it back to you when I go back." ”
Xu Xuan looked at it, only to find that the vegetable seller was actually an old neighbor, when he returned, he went to visit the neighbors in a hurry, and the people of this era are aging fast, where can he still recognize clearly? Since people were willing to help, he hurriedly thanked him immediately.
Just when Xu Xuan thanked him, when he turned around, Bai Suzhen and Xiaoqing were gone, and when the New Year's goods were officially purchased at the end of the year, people came and went on the street, and everyone was happily holding the things they bought. Xu Xuan had no choice but to find a high ground on the side of the road, so he climbed up to take a look, only to find that Xiaoqing was pulling Bai Suzhen to pick up fireworks in front of a firecracker stall, Xu Xuan reluctantly came down from this high ground and squeezed towards the stall.
Before I walked to this stall, I only heard Xiaoqing's chirping voice, "Uncle, are your fireworks beautiful?" How many colors are there? ”
The boss looked at Xiaoqing, who had bright eyes and bright teeth, but he was not in a hurry, and said with a smile, "Girl, look, this is a medicine puppet, after ignition, this puppet can rotate and erupt fireworks, and there are bonsai fireworks here, which are tied to a number of fireworks on this branch, and after being lit, it is like a waterfall and a galaxy, and the end is beautiful."
Xiaoqing looked at the clay puppet paper figure for a while, and looked at the fireworks of the branches that were high for a person, and her eyes were full of curiosity, but she was quickly attracted by the layers of crockpots on the wooden shelves on the side, "Boss, what kind of fireworks are you?" ”
The boss looked back, but waved his hand and said, "Girl, this fireworks is a shelf fireworks, although beautiful, but also extremely dangerous, if you buy it, you need to find an open space to set off, if it causes a fire, it is not responsible." ”
Hearing what the boss said, Xiaoqing's eyes suddenly widened, this fireworks are much more interesting than the previous fireworks!
Bai Suzhen looked at the fireworks that were already piling up on the side, and pulled Xiaoqing away helplessly, "Qing'er, this is enough, why are you buying so many fireworks?" ”
Xiaoqing was pulled by Bai Suzhen, so she had to look back at the fireworks step by step, Xu Xuan looked at Xiaoqing's appearance, shook his head, but came to the stall, "Uncle, how much is this fireworks?" Can you manage it? ”
This outside the city is not as big as the fireworks in the city, but there are few people outside the city who can afford it, after all, for the poor family, with the money to buy this fireworks, you can buy a large piece of meat, improve the food for the family,
The boss just sold Xiaoqing just now, just to sell this fireworks, after Xiaoqing left, he was worried, seeing Xu Xuan asking, the boss looked at the remaining fireworks, but there were not many, and nodded and said, "If the official's house is not far from here, I can also send it." ”
Xu Xuan said the address, but it was not far from the city gate, Xu Xuan paid the money, and the boss asked his son who was helping on the side to help Xu Xuan deliver it to his home.
Bai Suzhen, who was waiting for Xu Xuan on the side of the road, saw Xu Xuan leading a person to push a wooden frame of fireworks with a wheelbarrow, and immediately said angrily, "Official, we have already bought a lot of fireworks, what are you doing to buy such things again?" ”
Xu Xuan laughed, "Our family has not lived in for a long time, even if there are so many people living now, it is still a little lonely, and when I come out to buy New Year's goods today, I will buy more and spend the money."
Bai Suzhen looked at Xu Xuanyou, looked at Xiaoqing, shook her head helplessly, and smiled bitterly, "Alas, official, Qing'er is messing around, why don't you follow...... Alas"
Xu Xuan smiled and pulled Bai Suzhen, "Let's go, lady, since we bought the things, and the little brother of the people also helped us push it so far, can we still let the family send it back?" ”
Xiaoqing on the side had already narrowed her eyes happily at this time, and urged Bai Suzhen again and again, "That's it, that's it, since the official bought it, let's go back quickly, look at the sky, we should also go back to cook." Didn't my aunt say let us go to the house, we'll go to my aunt's house later?"
Xu Xuan also laughed, "That's it, lady, let's go back quickly, after eating, I'll go to the master's place to see in a while, and then go to my sister's place to get together." ”
Bai Suzhen was pulled by Xu Xuan and Xiaoqing towards home.
At that time, the five ghosts and Yue Anniang also bought things and came, Yue Anniang has been in good spirits a lot recently, after Xu Xuan's drug conditioning, and she feels a little embarrassed to eat and drink at Xu Xuan's house recently. Yue Fei's family education is quite strict, she is at home, and she often cooks, but there are so many people, she is really too busy alone, and at that moment, Zhang asked everyone to clean up the vegetables they bought.
Before Xu Xuan walked to the door, he smelled the aroma of the food coming from home, and couldn't help but praise at the moment, "I didn't expect Bai Fu's craftsmanship to be good recently, and the food he made made is appetizing." ”
Xiaoqing frowned, "Bai Fu has this skill?" I didn't know that."
At this time, Bai Fu and the others happened to come out and were about to hang the lanterns, but they were the neighbors who set up stalls in the market, and they had already sent the lanterns and other things back.
Without Xiaoqing's orders, everyone transported back the things they bought, and the five ghosts were excited about the fireworks they bought while carrying the fireworks.
At this moment, he heard a rapid sound of horses' hooves, and Xu Xuan looked back and saw a team of horses coming towards their mansion.
