Chapter 186: Disgust
When the Mid-Autumn Festival was approaching, Baoying received a letter from Jiang Zhen, the letter was delivered to the village, Jiang Xing accepted it, and brought it to her.
This letter was written by Jiang Zhen when he was still on Yongxing Middle Road.
The letter said that their group encountered some small troubles on the road, although they were successfully resolved, but they still delayed the trip, and they were afraid that they would not be able to rush back to reunite with the family during the Mid-Autumn Festival, and told them not to worry, and said that they missed them.
There were other words that were addressed to Xu, and he actually wrote them directly in the letter.
Bao Ying just glanced at it twice, and hurriedly gave it to Xu.
Xu Shi just looked at the beginning, his cheeks were pink, and he took the letter back to the house to take a closer look.
Knowing that the Mid-Autumn Festival in Jiangzhen could not come back, the whole family was a little disappointed, but this festival still has to be passed, and it happens that every year in the Mid-Autumn Festival, the Mid-Autumn Festival will be held in these ten miles and eight townships, which is very lively.
The Mid-Autumn Festival is held every year in one village on a rotating basis.
Because this is also the largest annual market in this mountain, not only people from ten miles and eight towns will come to do business, but also some merchants in the county will come to see if they can find any good things.
When the time comes, those who sell fish, those who sell meat, those who sell cloth, but whoever can take them out and sell them, will put them on the market stalls.
This year, the location of the Mid-Autumn Festival market was Lianshu Village, fortunately, it was not far from Qinghe Village, Baoying discussed with Xu, Feng and Aunt Liu, and decided to join in the fun.
Xu's eyes are now completely better, half a month ago began to do some embroidery, Feng followed Xu's embroidery, it seems that he is also quite talented in this matter, the progress is rapid, and now the embroidery is still not as good as Xu's, but it is already very good.
Early in the morning, before dawn, the family hurriedly ate breakfast and hurried out with the embroidery to be sold.
Xu, Feng, and Aunt Liu all brought embroidery, while Baoying carried a basket of herbs.
Today until the Mid-Autumn Festival, the private school is closed, Yixiaohu also followed Aunt Liu to join in the fun, the children have not been to the market for a long time, and they have been excited since last night.
The few of them went to Jiang's house first.
Jiang Xing got a big green mule from the fish pond to drive the cart, two donkey carts, one was full of fresh fish, fruits and vegetables that the Jiang family wanted to sell, and the other was sitting on the Gu family, including Zhiyan, as well as their cloth and medicinal materials.
Rao is Baoying felt that her family had already gotten up early in the morning, but after a long day of driving, she finally arrived at the spacious street of Lianshu Village, and found that many stalls here had been occupied.
"I miscalculated, I knew that there were so many people, so we would have come earlier." Bao Ying looked at the crowded stalls, and her little face, which was also a little excited and expectant, collapsed.
"It's okay to come late, I already asked Jiang Chao's kid to come early to occupy a seat!" Jiang Xing drove the carriage, and when he heard her words, he laughed
"Really? It's still high and far-sighted! Gu Baoying immediately smiled and gave him a thumbs up.
"Haha." Jiang Xing heard her praise herself, although she didn't quite understand what this meant, but she had heard Jiang Zhen say it before, and it was a good statement, so he was even happier.
After a while, he drove the carriage to the place where Jiang Chao had occupied.
Jiang Chao saw his two donkey carts from afar, and Gu Baoying, who was sitting on the cart and looking around, so he began to jump and wave at them: "Baoying! Father! Over here! ”
"Eh, Jiang Chao is there!" Bao Ying also shouted happily.
Jiang Xing drove over with a donkey cart and stopped at Jiang Chao's stall.
Several people jumped out of the car and began to carry things.
"This place is really nice!" Gu Baoying looked around, this location is not at the entrance of the village, it is not particularly far, it belongs to a middle place, and several stalls next to it are selling food.
If you go to the entrance of the village, most people come and want to look inside.
It's too close to the inside, often many people are tired of walking and don't want to go any further, maybe even because everyone sells similar things, and they have already bought the goods they like in the front, and they won't buy them anymore in the future.
The only bad thing is that it doesn't sell cloth here.
If there are several stalls selling cloth together, those who need to buy cloth will gather there, and then buy after comparing several stalls.
But it's nothing.
Although Bao Ying carried a basket of herbs today, she actually didn't plan to sell them, and the medical halls and pharmacies in the city that collect herbs have special supply channels, so they won't make a special trip at all.
Even the embroidery is different from those fabrics, and it is not very influential.
Besides, they came here today mainly to join in the fun, and selling things was secondary.
"Mother! I want to go over there! When Baoying and the others put the goods on the stall, Xiaohu said to Aunt Liu with a bright face.
"This ......" Aunt Liu hesitated, wanting to say that she would wait for the afternoon, and then lead him around, after all, she was not at ease when Xiaohu ran back and forth alone.
"In this way, Aunt Liu, you and my mother and Li Zheng will watch the stall together, and I will lead Xiaohu around with Brother Zhiyan and Sister Wen Fang! It's the first time I've been to such a market! Bao Ying said at this time.
"But aren't your herbs for sale?"
"It's okay, let's put it here first! If anyone asks, say the stall owner is not there and tell him to come back later! Gu Baoying really didn't care if this herb could be sold.
"Okay, don't patronize yourself with Xiaohu and play by yourself, you must take good care of him." Xu Shi looked at his daughter's rare playful appearance, and he was also happy in his heart, but he still instructed.
"Don't worry! Isn't this still Brother Zhiyan and Sister Wen Fang? ”
"Baoying, you and Zhiyan go together, I come back every year for this kind of market, and there is nothing to see, I will accompany Aunt Liu and Aunt Xu to talk here." Different from Bao Ying's excitement, Feng Shi smiled gently and said.
"Okay then, Brother Zhiyan, do you want to come with us?" Bao Ying was not reluctant, and when she saw that she didn't want to go, she happily responded and turned to look at Zhiyan.
"Well, naturally, yes." Zhiyan saw her eyes shining at herself, where could she say no? Besides, if she had to take Xiaohu alone, he was not at ease, so he nodded.
"Great, Xiaohu, let's go!" Gu Baoying was very happy.
With a wave of his hand and shouting, the three of them left together.
Seeing this, Xu couldn't help but smile helplessly and shook his head.
She raised her eyes to look at the lively scene around her, and couldn't help but think that she had been blind not long after she came to Qinghe Village, thinking that she would never see the light of day again, but who knows, but half a year later, she would be able to see such a lively crowd again?
However, as she looked around aimlessly, she saw a donkey cart full of wooden goods coming to a stop at a stall not too far in front of her.
Three people jumped down from the donkey cart, and it turned out to be Lao Zheng Tou, Yang and Gu Xinru.
She frowned in disgust, withdrew her gaze, and stopped paying attention.
"That's not the Yang family?" Aunt Liu also saw them, and couldn't help but bump Xu's arm lightly, and whispered.
"Hmm." Xu Shi replied lightly, didn't say anything, but looked at his embroidery stall intently.
At this time, the Yang family was originally very happy to wear a newly cut dress, and talked with Gu Xinru with a smile, but as soon as he turned his head, he saw Xu sitting dignified in a stall not far away, and his face suddenly sank.
