Chapter 104: Into the City
Xia Xiaoba parked the carriage at the teahouse at the gate of the city, gave him a care fee of five cents, and took Xiao Ming and the others into the city.
"Gone." Xia Xiaoba said, took Xiao Yu and walked in front of the city.
"Today is market day, and there are so many people." Xia Xiaoba is very familiar with Pingcheng, and led a few people to the lively places in the city, because today is a market day, there are a lot of pedestrians, and there are a lot more vendors on both sides of the street than on weekdays.
"Let's go, Brother Xia will take you to see the acrobatic performance."
"Uncle Hachi, is the acrobatic performance good-looking?" Xiao Yu looked up at Xia Xiaoba with big eyes.
"It's good-looking, there are monkeys, big knives, ropes, and high poles, and you have to give a reward for seeing it." Xia Xiaoba said that he stayed in Pingcheng for a while, and he watched it a few times, and the performance was average, of course, it was not as good as in the capital.
"I want to see, Uncle Hachi take me quickly, I have silver." Xiao Yu shouted excitedly, jumping and jumping, holding the purse around his waist, which contained two coppers given to him by his aunt.
Wang Tiandong also looked excited, following Xia Xiaoba's footsteps.
"Tiandong, you give me your hand, I'll pull you, otherwise you'll be lost." There were too many people, Xia Xiaoba pulled Wang Tiandong to his side, pulled Xiao Yu with one hand, and Wang Tiandong with the other, and went to the square in the city.
Xiao Yu and Wang Tiandong each held a sugar gourd to eat, and the other hand held a pastry, and they happily followed Xia Xiaoba to buy and buy.
Xiao Ming looked speechless, Xia Xiaoba is simply a shopaholic, is there such a spoiled child?
"Look at that restaurant, it used to be the largest restaurant in Pingcheng." Xia Xiaoba pointed to a two-story restaurant opposite.
"Taihelou, what did you call before?" Xiao Yu looked at Xia Xiaoba with wide eyes like a curious baby, this cute appearance made Xia Xiaoba laugh, lowered his head, and deliberately suppressed his voice.
"In the past, this Taihe Building had the best business and was famous far and wide, but since the opening of your Uncle Kong's Qionghua Building, his business has plummeted, and your Uncle Kong's restaurant has good dishes and tastes several times better than this one, and now the rich people in the city have gone to Qionghua Building to eat." Xia Xiaoba is honored that Qionghualou's business can replace Taihelou as the largest and best restaurant in Pingcheng, all because of the dishes sent by Xiao Ming.
"Let's go to his side for dinner at noon today, and let him have a treat, okay?" Xia Xiaoba proposed.
It's a pity that Xiao Yu shook his head and said seriously: "My aunt said that you can't take advantage of others." ”
I'll go.
Xia Xiaoba shouted psychologically, don't you take advantage of me if you eat so much.
"Then how can you call it not taking advantage." Xia Xiaoba asked, daring to eat him is not called taking advantage.
"You have to give money for dinner." Xiao Yu said that you have to give silver to buy things, and of course you have to give silver to eat.
"Okay, let your aunt give you the silver."
Xiao Yu was even more puzzled, tilted his head to look at Xia Xiaoba, and asked suspiciously, "Uncle Xiaoba, aren't you going to take us to dinner?" Why do you want your aunt to give us silver, and it's not your aunt who takes us to dinner, but she has to give us silver, why do you take us to eat and ask your aunt to give us silver? ”
·······
This little hairy child, why is it so difficult, Xia Xiaoba was stunned, how should he explain it? It seems that no matter how he doesn't take care of it, he has no choice but to agree to pay his own money to invite him to dinner.
This Xiao family is big and weird, and small is slippery.
"Good! All right! I'm going to eat crayfish, and I'm going to eat it..." Xiao Yu became happy at this time, and thought about it again, what did Grandma Song say was the super delicious dish called? After thinking about it for a long time, Xiao Yu finally remembered.
"I also want to eat Buddha jumping over the wall and sweet and sour fish, Grandma Song's this is particularly delicious."
Xia Xiaoba···
Watching Xia Xiaoba walk in front with the two of them all the way, Xiao Ming's sister and brother followed behind and talked, smiling at the interaction between Xia Xiaoba and Xiao Yu.
Xiao Han looked at the bookstore in front of him and said, "Sister, I won't go, I'll go to the bookstore to have a look." ”
"Well, let's go, I'll come back to pick you up after watching the acrobatics, and we will go to Qionghualou for dinner at noon." Xiao Ming nodded, took the things in his hand and carried them, and glanced at the bookstore, which happened to be the one she bought yesterday.
"Auntie, hurry up, we're going to see acrobatics!"
"Here we go!"
In the middle of Pingcheng Square, there was indeed the acrobatic performance that Xia Xiaoba said, but they came one step late, and there were already people who watched the excitement and came to occupy the place, and the shouting inside continued, but unfortunately there were crowds of people outside, and everyone only saw the trembling heads in front of them, and they couldn't see the performance at all.
Xiao Yu couldn't see it even when he was small, jumping on his small body, anxious to see what it looked like inside, but unfortunately he could barely see the higher head in front of him even if he jumped and jumped like this, but he couldn't see inside, squeezed and couldn't squeeze in, and he was so anxious that he scratched his ears and cheeks in place.
"Uncle Hachi, I can't see it." Xiao Yu pulled the corner of Xia Xiaoba's clothes aggrievedly.
Xia Xiaoba picked up Xiao Yu, put it on his shoulder, and spoke: "Did you see it?" ”
"I saw it, there were monkeys." Xiao Yu shouted happily, looked at the little monkey performing in the middle, jumped up happily for a while, startled Xia Xiaoba, and hurriedly grabbed him: "My little ancestor is seated, don't move." “
"Oh." Xiao Yu stuck out his tongue and was honest, but after a while, he pointed ahead and shouted, "There is another person playing with a big knife." ”
Xiao Ming stood bored, she couldn't see it, but she lacked interest in these, but Wang Tiandong beside her looked at the crowd in front of her with a yearning face, envying Xiao Yu for being able to see inside, although he couldn't see inside, but listening to Xiao Yu's voice, he stood quietly and obediently.
It's as honest as her sister.
"Miss Xiao, we meet again." A surprise voice beside him interrupted Xiao Ming's train of thought.
"Liu Gongzi, it's a coincidence." Xiao Ming saw that it was Liu Fushun, and said hello casually, and found that Liu Fushun seemed to have dressed up on purpose, changed his clothes, and actually rubbed powder on his face, a thick layer of powder, and painted a face whiter than a woman.
Nondescript.
Some want to laugh but have to endure it, hey, the front, pay attention to what you say, the powder has fallen.
"Miss Xiao, are you also coming to see the acrobatic show? The location here is not easy to see, why don't you go with me to the teahouse opposite, I booked a place on the second floor, and you can see the bottom very clearly. Liu Fushun said, and smiled thinking he was very handsome, his eyes were crooked with a smile, and he looked at Xiao Ming directly.
Xia Xiaoba looked over and found that it was Liu Fushun, cut it, turned around, and continued to let Xiao Yu on his shoulder watch acrobatics.
"Thank you for your kindness, no need." Xiao Ming said, looking at Liu Fushun, to be honest, looking at him like that, he can be as awkward as he wants, and he can only endure it if he wants to laugh, I really want to remind him, brother, your powder has fallen.
