The geographical location of Xiangyang City is extremely important, and it has been the link between the Central Plains and the land of Jingchu since ancient times. The four rivers of Baihe, Rolling River, Chunhe River and Hanshui either pass through or around the city, and the abundant water resources make the land of Xiangyang extremely fertile.

By the time of the Ming Dynasty, Xiangyang's military significance had diminished, but what remained unchanged was its status as a commercial hub.

There is an endless stream of merchants, and there are also rows of local merchants, and more than a dozen small towns have been built around Xiangyang Mansion. These towns are populated by small traders and artisans, and many things that cannot be bought in the city can be bought here.

The long journey caused some damage to the wheel spokes of the carriage, and Ning Xiu didn't want to take the risk, so he went to a small town called Xun'an to repair the wheels.

He found a shop that specialized in making and repairing horse-drawn carriage wheels, and the craftsman of this shop, Du Laohan, was the most famous wheel-maker in Xun'an Town, and most of the wheels of Xiangyangfu carriages came from him. His ability to repair is just as superb, as long as the axle is not broken, he can fix it.

When Ning Xiu found him, Du Laohan was putting the wheels on the shaft, his expression was extremely focused, and he didn't realize that someone had entered the store.

Ning Xiu coughed and said, "Master, the spokes of my carriage are a little damaged, can you see if you can repair it?" ”

Du Laohan raised his head and said, "Where does the carriage stop?" ”

"It's right outside the store."

Du Laohan put down the work in his hand, walked outside the store with Ning Xiu, squatted down and looked at the spokes, nodded and said, "It's not a big problem, give me half a day to fix it." ”

Ning Xiu was overjoyed when he heard this, this kind of small problem is not easy to repair, otherwise he would not have been able to fix it all the way.

This Xun'an Town is really Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, and the craftsmen are all real kung fu.

"Leave the car here first, and you can pick it up early tomorrow morning."

Ning Xiu thanked Du Laohan and walked out.

They had already agreed in advance that they would not enter Xiangyang City this time, but would only stay in Xun'an Town for one night, and set off early tomorrow morning.

Xun'an Town is not big, there are only two streets in total, in the shape of a cross, and you can see all the places you can walk around.

"Brother Tao, the carriage has been put into the car shop for repair, and it can be repaired early tomorrow morning, and it will not delay the trip."

Qi Ling'er was choosing a comb on the stall, and when he heard Ning Xiu shouting, he quickly turned around and hid the selected wooden comb behind him.

"Brother Tao, what are you looking at? Then get into the gods. ”

"I didn't ...... It's nothing. ”

Qi Ling'er was already weak-hearted, and she stammered even more when Ning Xiu asked her like this, which of course aroused Ning Xiu's suspicions.

He glanced at the stall and was shocked to see that it was a comb seller.

"Brother Tao, do you have a habit of collecting combs?"

Qi Ling'er really has the urge to hit tofu at the moment, why did this product come when she was picking a comb if it didn't come sooner or later?

Fortunately, she still picked a comb, if she picked a rouge gouache, wouldn't she immediately expose her daughter's body?

Tao Chun saw that Miss was weak, so she jumped out and stirred: "What's wrong with collecting combs, my son-in-law still collects mirrors." Like my son-in-law, he is so handsome, and he has to change the mirror every day? ”

Ning Xiuzhi was a chill.

My God, big men comb their hair in the mirror every day? It's not normal to look at it.

This guy can't be a rabbit too, right?

As soon as he remembered the ambiguous words that Chu Wanglun said in the Changchun Courtyard, Ning Xiu had goosebumps.

Sending away a rabbit on the front foot, and a rabbit on the back foot, his luck won't be so good?

If there is really such good luck, Ning Xiu should consider setting up a casino to sit in the bank, and he will definitely make a profit without losing money.

"Ahem, has Brother Tao picked it out? Chen is a little hungry, let's hurry up and find a store to eat, shall we? ”

Tao Chun rubbed his fingers and muttered quietly: "Eat, eat, eat, you know." What a pig. ”

Of course Ning Xiu didn't hear this, otherwise he would have to grasp the "little scholar" and educate him well.

Xun'an Town is not big, and there are fewer restaurants to choose from.

The three of them found a steamed bun shop, ordered three steamed buns, and asked for a pot of rice wine to have a feast.

The steamed buns are wild vegetables and eggs, and the taste is a little light, but the three of them have been hungry for most of the day, where can they care about the light taste, and they eat all the three steamed buns in less than half a pillar of incense.

Ning Xiu patted his belly, poured the last sip of wine with satisfaction, closed his eyes and said, "Brother Tao, I have always thought that buns are the most delicious thing in the world. Do you know why? ”

"Why?"

"Because the buns are easy to eat, you can chew them in your mouth, unlike those complicated dishes and special ways to eat, which is tiring."

Qi Ling'er: "......"

After being silent for a moment, Qi Ling'er sighed: "To be honest, Friend Chen, you are the most incomprehensible person I have ever met. ”

"Can't see through? It's good not to see through it, wouldn't it be boring to see everything clearly. ”

Ning Xiu wiped the corners of his mouth, revealing snow-white teeth: "Just like Chen's teeth, if I tell you that my teeth are all fake, will Brother Tao believe it?" ”

"False...... Dentures? ”

"Haha, I lied to you."

Ning Xiu laughed, and Qi Ling'er's face on the side turned green.

"What's so funny, it's vulgar!"

Qi Ling'er turned his back and said, "Looking at it this way, you and Ning Xiu are the same dog, and I am not surprised that the two of you are friends." ”

"Why?"

"He's as cheap as you."

"Poof."

Ning Xiu rolled his eyes and said, "You haven't seen him yet, how do you know that he is cheap?" Brother Tao, seeing is believing, and hearing is false. ”

"Hmph, some people know who they are just by hearing their reputation."

Qi Ling'er didn't intend to lose her momentum, so she argued to herself.

"Okay, okay, let's not talk too fast here, let's find a store to stay."

After eating and drinking, the next thing is, of course, sleeping.

I have to say that the entertainment life of the generation is really lacking, and it is basically sleeping when it gets dark.

It's just that rich people can roll sheets with their concubines, and Dick Si can only lie on the board bed and count the sheep......

As soon as they got out of the bun shop, a little beggar rushed over from the back of the street and hit Qi Ling'er's waist directly.

Qi Ling'er was knocked forward and fell, if she hadn't practiced martial arts, she would have to fall and eat.

She was just about to start scolding after she stood firm, when she suddenly realized that the purse around her waist had been stolen, and shouted: "Catch the thief, catch the thief." Friend Chen, help me catch that thief. ”

Ning Xiu nodded and said, "There are only two streets in this whole town, Brother Tao will chase in front, and I will intercept his back road." ”

The two looked at each other and went their separate ways.

It has to be said that catching thieves is a physical job, especially on crowded streets.

Ning Xiu squeezed through the vast flow of people, and finally found the location of the little beggar, and just as he was about to take a step, he was blocked by a little brother pushing a small cart to sell tofu.
