Chapter 393: Temple Fair

At noon, I had lunch at Shen's house, and in the afternoon, I had refreshments, and as soon as the sun set, the mighty army set off.

Although the Shen family also prepared fireworks, the temple fair still had to go.

Mrs. Shen suggested that everyone come back after visiting the temple fair and set off fireworks, and everyone agreed.

Visiting a temple fair is a matter of getting more people, the more lively it is.

It was Tong Yao who followed Shen Lanqiu's carriage, plus Du Xiaoya and Xia Lingling, and the four girls rode in the same carriage to the location of the temple fair.

This time, the temple fair was held on the outskirts of the city, where the green hills are stacked and the scenery is pleasant.

The royal family has decorated the road to the temple fair with red lanterns, and under the afterglow of the setting sun, the mountain road has a hazy dreamy beauty.

The carriage traveled to the foot of the mountain, and just when it could not go forward, a group of relatives and noble daughters went up the mountain in twos and threes.

"The place of the temple fair is actually less than halfway up the mountain, there is a natural hot spring on the halfway up the mountain, but unfortunately last year, it was bought by a wealthy businessman, I heard that last winter, the monarch wanted to take a dip, and he paid to go in."

Shen Lanqiu said while going up the mountain, gesturing in the direction ahead.

Tong Yao raised his eyebrows, there are hot springs on this mountain? She never knew.

Xia Lingling also nodded:

"I also heard about this matter, the rich merchant Shenlong saw the head and the end, and the king came back and only praised him vigorously, and I don't know what the rich merchant has to offer."

Du Xiaoya said:

"Even if he has great ability and doesn't want to be a leader, the monarch can only sigh with admiration.

However, I have also heard that since the king left, many people have gone in for money, so a merchant is a merchant, and as long as he gives money, he can sell anything. ”

In Du Xiaoya's tone, with the meaning of looking down on the rich businessman, Tong Yao didn't think so.

People are willing to use this to make money, what about you to manage people, if she is a rich businessman, she is also willing to treat this as a business.

Several people talked and laughed, and soon arrived at the entrance of the temple fair.

They had arrived relatively early, and there was no one at the entrance, so a group of people rushed in, and the mountain road, which was already occupied by vendors on both sides, seemed even more crowded.

"Fortunately, we came early, and we walked around before the people in the city arrived, otherwise when they got on, I am afraid that this place will be so crowded that we will not be able to walk."

Tong Yao agreed with Shen Lanqiu's words, just these noble families have so many people, so as soon as the people in the city come up, shouldn't they be crowded out here?

Although the temple fair is lively, the form is almost the same every year, and the goods sold are similar, Tong Yao walked over from stall to stall, and didn't feel that there was anything to buy.

It may be related to the fact that she has to stay in Cangdai Mountain all the time and has no needs.

Anyway, looking at the other three young ladies, I gained a lot.

Tong Yao glanced at it, they were all the accessories that the girl's family liked, these things were in Cangdai Mountain, and they really didn't need them.

The four girls were tired of shopping and went to a tea room to rest, Tong Yao looked out the window, and just enough to see that there seemed to be lights on the mountainside, which were clearly extinguished.

pointed and asked Shen Lanqiu: "Is that also the boundary of the temple fair?" ”

The three young ladies raised their eyes and glanced at it, and Du Xiaoya shook her head:

"No, no, it's already halfway up the mountain, maybe it's the hot spring that the rich merchant bought.

It's strange, don't you usually say that there is no one, is there someone there today? Aren't everyone coming to the temple fair? In the summer, who goes to the hot springs? ”
