Chapter 8 Spring Outing

The weather is sunny, the breeze is blowing, and the air has a faint fragrance of flowers, mixed with the smell of spring earth.

Tang Shishi looked at the person who came and shouted, "Mother, why are you here." ”

"Uncle." Li Yan also greeted.

Li Yushi nodded at Li Yan first. Then he asked Tang Shishi: "What, can't I come?" ”

"Well, that's not what I meant, mother," Tang Shishi said with a dry smile when she heard Li Yushi ask rhetorically.

"I won't mess with you, we're here for lunch today, and I'm just going to talk to you about something." Li Yushi sat next to Tang Shishi and said.

"By the way, mother, do you have to eat this snail?" Tang Shishi seemed to suddenly think of something, pointed to the table and asked.

"I ate it, it tasted good, it's the first time I've eaten this kind of thing. Your father praised this skill. It's just that the way to eat it is a bit novel. Li Yushi looked at the praise that Tang Shishi was referring to.

"Of course it's delicious, but what I make is not delicious." Tang Shishi first praised herself and then asked: "Daddy is still at home, now?" ”

"It's gone, just leave after eating, go and deal with things, the court has a task for her, and he will deal with it." Li Yushi paused here when she said this, and then said angrily: "You said you did it?" Don't you know your craftsmanship when I don't know, you haven't been exposed to stir-frying, you say you're afraid of fumes, it's almost the same as pastries. ”

"Mother, you actually said that about your daughter, you don't believe it, you can ask Li Yan, I did it with the two of him." Tang Shishi saw that her mother didn't believe it, so she was anxious, looked at Li Yan and said.

Li Yan heard the conversation between the two people on the side, and felt embarrassed, and when he saw Tang Shishi and the two looking at him, Li Yan nodded and said, "This is part of the credit of Sister Shishi." ”

"It's pretty much the same, it's obviously two people doing it together, and they say they did it themselves, you, you're a big lady outside, well-informed, and you're thick-skinned in front of me. I'm not afraid of Li Yan laughing at you. Li Yushi pointed at Tang Shishi's forehead and said.

Hearing Li Yushi's words, Tang Shishi said with a smile: "He won't laugh at me, right, Li Yan." After speaking, he looked at Li Yan and said. As a result, I happened to see Li Yan smile.

When Li Yan saw Tang Shishi looking at him, he stopped smiling, pretended that I didn't know anything, nodded and said, "I won't laugh." ”

"Can't laugh? So what did you just laugh at? Tang Shishi saw Li Yan like this, and said a little angrily.

"Yes, why don't I know I've laughed, have I laughed?" Li Yan looked serious and said shamelessly.

"I didn't see anything." Li Yushi took a sip of tea and said.

"Hmph, you all bullied me and didn't tell you." Tang Shishi was stomped by the two of them so angrily.

While a few people were chatting, the next person also served lunch.

"Don't make trouble, let's get down to business, three days later, it's the spring festival for you young people in our county, this time you two go out to play, I'll let someone prepare things for you." Li Yushi thought for a while and said.

"Mother, why is this year's party more than ten days late. This vernal equinox has passed for so long, and in the past, the vernal equinox began two or three days later. Tang Shishi heard Li Yushi's words and asked.

Li Yushi explained, "This year is more than ten days late, mainly because there are a few organizers this year, who were not in the city at that time, and they have only been back for a few days, so it is late." ”

"Oh, I see."

"Uncle, what kind of activity is this spring outing?" While the two were chatting, Li Yan looked puzzled and spoke up.

Hearing Li Yan's question, Li Yushi explained with a smile: "This stepping on the green is to welcome the arrival of spring, that is, the gathering of your young people, these are all activities that are only available in the city, but the time of the spring in each place is different, and the spring in the capital is before and after the stinging solar term after the Lantern Festival." We are here in the days after the vernal equinox. ”

"And the main activity is to go out and play, or to do poetry and painting. However, the main purpose of this activity is to allow the younger generation to meet people and expand their circle. ”

"Oh, that's right." When Li Yan heard this explanation, he nodded in understanding.

In fact, this does not need to be explained by Li Yushi, this so-called outing, which is more commonly understood is to talk about love. Li Yan didn't believe that Li Yushi, who was a person who had come over, didn't know. But it's not just a few people.

“; Don't go out for the next two days, prepare well, bring all the things you want to bring, this time it's going out for two days. Li Yushi admonished.

Hearing Li Yushi's advice, Tang Shishi nodded helplessly and said, "I know, mother, you have to say a lot every time you go out, but where is the location this time?" ”

"It's in the Xuanzhong Temple, that location, the first day is to experience life in the village not far from the Xuanzhong Temple, and someone will take you with you when the time comes. The next day, I went to Xuanzhong Temple to burn incense. ”

"Xuanzhong Temple, it's so far away, it takes almost an hour to take the carriage, can my mother not go?"

"No, as the daughter of the county guard, you still have to take the lead, you know, so there is no negotiation." When Li Yushi heard what her daughter said, she directly vetoed it.

"It's so ruthless, veto it directly." Tang Shishi said with a sad face.

"I'm not happy to let you go out to play, aren't you usually running fast?"

"I... Did you say that about your own daughter? ”

Li Yushi didn't care about Tang Shishi's expression, and said to Li Yan: "This is your first time going, pay attention to safety, help me take care of her, I'm afraid that what happened last time,"

"Well, I know, I'll take good care of Sister Shishi." Li Yan nodded in response.

"If you go to play this time, if you have a favorite girl, come back and tell your aunt, and your aunt will help you match." Li Yushi seemed to think of something, first said to Li Yan, and then turned to Tang Shishi and said: "Especially you, if you think you can come back and talk to your mother, otherwise you will become a leftover girl by then." ”

“。。。。。。”

"Uncle, Sister Shishi, don't worry, I believe Sister Shishi won't." Li Yan said out of his words: "And Sister Shishi is so beautiful and moving, so there are many people who like Sister Shishi." ”

"That is, if you like to worry about it, anyone who wants to marry your daughter can trample on our family's door. I'm still worried that I won't be able to get married, but I don't have this mind now, and now I just want to be at home with my mother. Hearing what Li Yan said, Tang Shishi immediately said.

"Okay, whatever you want." When Li Yushi saw this, she didn't say anything anymore.

,,,,,,,,,。

Three days passed, but with a wave of his hand, when the early morning of the third day, he met in the Tang Mansion.

It was supposed to be a quiet morning, but there was a busy time in the Tang Mansion, and then Li Yan and Tang Shishi prepared the supplies they needed to go out for the spring today, although the organizer would prepare some necessary for everyone, but some of them still brought their own, such as pastries and tea.

Li Yan prepared some silk threads on the side, as well as a hook-shaped item, and originally planned to bring a bamboo pole, but after looking at the carriage, he gave up, and when he arrived at the destination, he looked for it in the nearby people to see if there was any.

"Li Yan, what are you messing around with, we're almost going to gather some." Tang Shishi put a package on the car and said.

"Oh, nothing, right away." Li Yan responded.

After Li Yan finished speaking, he went, and Tang Shishi saw Li Yan coming, so he got in the car first, followed by Li Yan. When the handlebar saw that they were all ready, they said that they were starting to set off, but they were stopped by a voice.

"Poetry, etc." The person who came was Li Yushi, who came to the carriage and said, "Are you supposed to come and take Qi?" Is there still a silver tael? ”

"Mother. All of them were taken, and the silver taels were on Li Yan. ”

"Oh, well, let's go, stay safe on the road." Li Yushi finally admonished.

"Got it, mother, it's a little cold in the morning, you can go back to the house first." After Tang Shishi finished speaking, she said to the handlebar: "Let's go." ”

The carriage gradually moved away from the Tang Mansion, and Li Yushi stood at the door and watched the carriage disappear from his sight, before slowly returning to the mansion. Whether in ancient times or in the current era, the most difficult thing is the parents of the world, no matter where the children go, the most worried about the safety of the children and the food is only the parents, this is the so-called pity for the parents of the world.

"Where are we meeting?" In the car, Li Yan asked.

"Where to meet at the city gate, where is every event, waiting for everyone to set off. So don't worry about anything else. Tang Shishi knew what Li Yan was worried about and said.

"I'm not worried, I'm just asking, and if it's in the wrong place, it's going to be troublesome."

"This doesn't have to be burdened, even if it's wrong, it doesn't matter, we can find it."

While the two were chatting, they went out of the city gate, and there were many carriages gathered at the city gate, no less than thirty carriages, and people came again one after another.

The arrival of Li Yan and others also attracted the attention of the people here, and when they saw that the person who came was the daughter of the county guard, everyone came to say hello.

"Miss Tang Shishi. Li Yan Gongzi. I am the person in charge of your safety this time, and I am also the person in charge of this rally. After greeting everyone, a strong-looking man came to Tang Shishi.

"'Are you?' Tang Shishi saw the person who came, as if she didn't know it, and asked.

"Oh, I forgot to introduce, but down there is the personal guard of the county guard. Chen Meng. Chen Meng clenched his fists and said.

"Daddy's guards? Didn't Daddy say that he didn't want guards, why did he suddenly remember to have guards? Tang Shishi wondered.

"Oh, I was arranged by the emperor to be by the side of the county guard, and the emperor said that maybe it is not safe around the adults, so protect the safety of the adults." Chen Meng explained.

"Well, I see, but you come to me, my father's side?" Tang Shishi understands what this so-called insecurity is, but she is worried about her father's safety.

"You don't have to worry about this, where is there still a colleague of mine."

"Oh, got it."

"By the way, Childe, when I came, the county keeper told me that everything was up to you this time." When Chen Meng was about to leave, he said as if he had thought of something.

"Listen to me? Why? Hearing this, Li Yan asked.

"I don't know about that."

"Okay, you go get busy, we're here waiting for everyone to go together." Li Yan didn't ask anything.

"Hmm." Chen Meng clenched his fists and left to take charge of the order.
