Chapter 103: Enter the city as soon as possible
This night, Ye Qing didn't sleep well, and as soon as the rooster crowed, she hurriedly got up and packed up her things.
After waiting for a while, seeing that it was gray and dawning outside, she took out the lilac summer cloth she bought yesterday and went downstairs with a bag of her face.
When she was about to go out, she turned back and ran to the guest hall, took a pen and paper on the counter and left a note for Ye Ying, saying that she would go to the academy early to take care of her father.
As soon as she walked out of the inn, Mo Che just opened the door of the room where he lived, and he no longer had a beard on his face.
It was a very white, handsome and evil face, he looked at Ye Qing who was leaving in a hurry, his smile was evil and ruthless, and his eyes were thoughtful.
The sky showed a little fish belly white, and some afterglow sprinkled all over the mountains, covering the distant mountains with a thin veil, the morning sun was very beautiful, but Ye Qing had no intention of appreciating it.
The west gate of the town had been opened, but some of the people who had entered the city early were stopped outside the city by the soldiers guarding the gate.
This morning, the inspection of entering the city became more and more severe, and it is estimated that the lord sent by the imperial court will enter the city today.
Ye Qing wrapped her face, and was stopped and interrogated by the soldiers guarding the door for a long time, but fortunately, she had an idea, and answered in the local dialect of the town from beginning to end.
The soldiers guarding the gate didn't want to see Ye Qing's face anymore, so they impatiently let her into the town.
Maybe Ye Qing entered the city too early, and Dr. Zhou's pharmacy hadn't opened yet.
There were many pedestrians watching her along the way, Ye Qing simply tore off the cloth on her face, tore off a cloth with her hands, and only wrapped her neck around.
The Heshengtang Pharmacy is not far from the southern market, and Ye Qing plans to eat something at the intersection of the market, estimating that after eating early, the pharmacy should be able to open.
Maybe today is the polder day, although it is still early, but there are already a lot of pedestrians on the road, and it is very lively to come and go.
Ye Qing looked at it with great interest, and found that although this Chongyang Town was very large, and the people in this town were living a good life, there were still more poor people in the end.
Basically, people in the past wore gray and brown coarse cloth clothes, but she found that not all women in this era wore skirts, and some wore short gowns and wide trousers.
The women of the common people can also go out at will, and there are few women who bind their feet, most of the folk women are Tianzu, and it is naturally impossible for the Ye family to bind their feet with Ning Yuxi in Ye Qing.
Occasionally, I can meet a few men and women dressed in good materials walking on the road with maids and servants, but they are not old ladies and young ladies and young men. It is estimated that they are all stewards of some large families, and they come out to buy in the morning.
Ye Qing thought for a while, this can be regarded as a lucky thing, the place he passed through was not bound by so many perverted rituals as in the legend.
It seems that this era is not so closed and constrained compared to some ancient dynasties she knows, at least a few of the Ye family's female dependents have studied.
After walking a few breakfast stalls, she sat down at a stall with more people.
This is a stall selling wontons and scones, and the proprietress is a couple in their 40s, with a kind face.
Ye Qing spent eight dollars to buy a bowl of wontons and two cakes. The wonton is filled with pure pork, and the cake is a relatively solid dough cake, with a little green onion and meat foam in it, and some sesame seeds sprinkled on the outside, and people here call this kind of cake "light cake".
This cake is said to be named after a famous anti-Japanese general in the Jianzhou capital of the previous dynasty, and the locals like to eat it.
Ye Qing took the light cake wrapped in oil paper, took a bite, and found that the taste was okay, but it was a little hard. However, it is very satisfying, and this kind of cake is also very suitable for dry food, even in summer, it can be left for three to five days.
