Chapter 22: On the Street (Part II)

"Alright, go ahead. Bring more people and don't get scattered. Seeing Jiang Chenyi's eager face, Cang Suniang no longer embarrassed him, and easily agreed. Maybe it's because every mother is happy to see someone treat their child well.

"Thank you, Aunt Su." Jiang Chenyi excitedly gave a full salute.

In the end, it is the nature of a teenager. Cang Linhan suspected that this kid had taken the wrong medicine. A kid who is usually quite clever, but he came out with himself, but he became more and more stupid. I couldn't help but touch my nose.

"Thank you, Mother." Gu Qingping also wanted to go out and have a look, so he didn't hesitate to respond.

Cang Suniang nodded, lovingly tidied up Gu Qingping's clothes, and waved them out to play.

"Madam, this family affair is really good. The relationship between Miss and Jiang Xiaogongzi is also really good. Sure enough, it's fate. Looking at the backs of them going out together, Mama Zhao sighed to Cang Suniang.

"They're still young, let's see." Cang Suniang was happy in her heart, but there was still room for talking.

"Brother, forget about her." After Cang Suniang finished speaking, she found her gaffe.

The insiders next to him pretended not to understand and lowered their heads tightly. And those who don't understand pretend not to hear.

Cang Linhan just took a sip of tea and didn't say anything.

Cang Suniang moved her fingers, her eyes were a little dull, and she didn't say anything.

On the street, the folk customs on this side of the border city are relatively open. There were many women with women's hairs and stalls in the streets.

Gu Qingping saw the scene in front of him, and his heart was full of relief. It seems that he still did a great job in his previous life and assisted the right person. The city is full of high walls, and it is not a day's work. But in an instant, before I could react, I heard:

"Sister Qingping, I'll buy you a sugar gourd." Jiang Chenyi, who had just come out of the teahouse, took Gu Qingping and ran to the vendor not far away. The plackets of the two slid over the bluestone slab, and the Qingyi and Moshi behind them reluctantly followed.

"Two strings of sugar gourds." Jiang Chenyi spoke, staring at the shelves full of sugar gourds.

"Four holes, I can eat skewers enough. Do you eat? Gu Qingping said seriously.

"Sister Qingping, I'll eat with you. Otherwise, it's not fun to eat alone. Jiang Chenyi began to make excuses again.

"yes, got it." Gu Qingping didn't say anything more, just looked at Jiang Chenyi's eyes a little funny.

"Well, Sister Qingping, let's go ahead and have a look. There are a lot of people in front of me, I don't know what they're doing? Jiang Chenyi dodged Gu Qingping's eyes and changed the topic.

Gu Qingping was still merciful, did not pierce his obvious disguise, and followed Jiang Chenyi into the crowd in front.

It may be that the person is small and the movement is flexible. Soon the two of them squeezed to the front, and only then did they see what was going on.

I saw a platform in the middle of the crowd. There are a lot of cages on the table, and the cages are all kinds of animals.

"Everyone, the old rule, the highest price wins." A thin, old man with a beard stood in front of the stage and announced the beginning.

"Good, good, good~" The applause in my ears one after another seemed to render the atmosphere to the highest point.

"What is this for?" Jiang Chenyi really didn't understand.

Gu Qingping was expressionless and did not reply.

But there are enthusiastic and enthusiastic audiences next to it. "Little boy, you can also go to the steward's office to buy a brand and bid for it. This is an annual event in our border city, "Fur Festival".

Autumn has arrived, and it is not easy to hunt when the mountains are covered by heavy snow. No, gather good hunters to hunt in July, and sell on August 10th to celebrate the harvest. And it's too late to make leather jackets for those noble ladies and ladies in winter. On top of that, this festival was a public skinning ceremony, with the most prestigious skinners invited. The event was held for three consecutive days. See, this year is hosted by the Li family, and the people sitting at the top are all big businessmen, and every brand is tired of this price. The gray-clothed man next to him explained again and again after hearing Jiang Chenyi's voice. Of course, Jiang Chenyi was dressed extraordinarily, and he was followed by servants, so he also had a stammering mind.

"Alright, thank you." Jiang Chenyi naturally understood this person's intentions, took off the purse around his waist and threw it to him, and nodded.

"You're welcome, you're welcome." The man weighed the weight of the purse in his hand, and immediately thanked Dade for squeezing out the crowd and withdrew. As for the few people who disappeared next to him, they were not in everyone's consideration.

"It's a little too cruel." Tsing Yi, who finally squeezed in, heard the man's explanation, saw the animals in the cage with moist eyes, and looked at the cauldron not far away, after all, he couldn't bear it.

"Tsing Yi, don't lie about it." Seeing the unkind eyes next to him, Gu Qingping said. It's not that there is a fear of reprisals or resentment, but it's that these words are of little use at this point.

"Let's go." Gu Qingping took a deep look at the pot-bellied businessman sitting in the middle, and remembered the sign in front of him - outside the clerk. Be the first to leave.

Jiang Chenyi didn't speak, and followed Gu Qingping out of the crowd.

"Four holes, let's go back." Gu Qingping saw Jiang Chenyi's slightly depressed appearance, and couldn't help but pat him on the shoulder.

"Sister Qingping, I'm fine. I heard that there is an exchange market in front of me, exchanging things with the Hu people. We can go check it out. Jiang Chenyi blinked and said to Gu Qingping.

"No, my mother is still waiting. Let's go again next time. Gu Qingping glanced at Jiang Chenyi, there were a lot of changes in him. I just didn't expect that the next time I went to the exchange market would be thirteen years later.

Sure enough, growing up requires going through some things and giving up some things. Gu Qingping didn't say anything after all. It's just that Gu Qingping took the initiative to take Jiang Chenyi's hand this time and walked back.

Although Jiang Chenyi has been smart since he was a child, he has experienced too little, or he has been protected too well. His hands have not been directly stained with blood, and this trip, for him, is both lucky and cruel. Fortunately, he is growing up, laying the foundation for his future path, and the general cannot be indecisive. The cruelty lies in getting to know something again, which means that the innocent childhood is really going to say goodbye.
