Back in S City, it was getting dark. The military vehicle took them directly back to the hotel again.

Leave the nanny and aunt to take care of the peace of sleep. The group tasted a lot of delicacies on the small passenger ferry. Everyone was in no hurry to go back after dinner, strolling through the streets and enjoying the beautiful scenery.

Ten miles of ocean is still prosperous. The large and small boats on the Dapu River, the workers on the docks, the tourists strolling on the Bund, the sentries patrolling the streets, the tinkling trams, and the tricycles passing by on the way make the city seem alive at night under the lights of the rows of buildings of all nations on the opposite side.

Mrs. Cheng has been guarding the child a few days ago, and it is difficult to get out tonight. She pulled Zhou Jiao all the way and told the story of her and her eldest sister Gu Mingzhu when they were in the girl's flower season, and the sisters swam the Dapu River many times.

The old lady's voice echoed in Zhou Jiao's ears. She looked at the scenery in front of her, and her heart was full of melancholy. I don't know how many generations of the buildings of all nations standing quietly in front of me have witnessed the ebb and flow of many generations, and how many people's joys and sorrows have been taken away by the mighty Dapu River.

The next day, everyone discussed whether to visit the Baixiang City God Temple first. When I came to S City, I didn't go to the City God Temple to taste snacks, and I always felt regretful when I brought some specialties back.

After the Lantern Festival, the festive atmosphere of the Baixiang City God's Temple Market has not subsided, and there are crowds of people everywhere.

There are all kinds of novelties in the square in front of the temple and several toy stalls on the side of the Jiuqu Bridge. For example, two cents can be watched with foreign films, colorful faces, vivid wooden knives and swords, slingskin bows, bells, cheap bones... Many children refused to leave.

The noisy laughter coming from the teahouse, the fragrance that goes straight to the tip of the nose, makes people involuntarily speed up their pace to find the source of the fragrance.

Mrs. Cheng revisited her hometown and knew all kinds of food well. Ignoring the long queues in front of the various hotel buildings, she went in from Changxing Building to the second floor and ordered several kinds of xiaolongbao such as crab roe xiaolongbao for breakfast.

After breakfast, everyone went out. The old lady began to whisper a few special snacks around her, such as pork rib rice cake, chicken and duck blood soup, wine-stuffed rice balls, and so on.

Along the way, Mrs. Cheng explained in detail, and after seeing Zhang Guoqing and Zhou Jiao have a general understanding, she began to take Cheng Ruzhu, Lin Lishan and their group to buy gifts back to Beijing, leaving the couple to go shopping.

Zhang Guoqing and Zhou Jiao did not object. They knew that the old lady had been to the City God Temple many times, and they were not much interested in revisiting the old place. In addition to buying some souvenirs, they are also in a hurry to go back to take care of the children. I don't know if the old lady thought that the couple still had important things to deal with, so she left with everyone.

Zhang Guoqing and his wife looked at each other and smiled. In addition to being more antique than later generations, the current City God Temple is not very interesting. It was the original food that made them happy. Considering that they would have to go to Fuzhou Road to visit the second-hand book stall today, the two began to shop along the street.

In addition to special snacks and novelty toys, their greatest interest is in the time-honored pear paste candy in Yuyuan. As for dim sum and pastries, Nanjing Road No. 1 Food Mall has it all.

Seeing that it was almost noon, the couple hurried to Fuzhou Road with large bags and small bags. They have been fond of the legend of this four-horse road for a long time.

As soon as he got on the tricycle, as soon as the driver heard that he went to Fuzhou Road to buy books and pen and ink, he immediately smiled and said that no one knows.

The closer you get to Fuzhou Road, the more you can feel that this street is not inferior to Nanjing Road. In addition to many specialty bookstores and cultural goods specialty stores, large pharmacies and restaurants can be seen everywhere along the street.

When they arrived at their destination, they saw a forest of large and small bookstores and stationery stores, and the couple happily raised their hands and high-fived them in celebration. There was no time to say more, so the two of them randomly entered a used bookstore and acted separately. According to the agreement, Zhang Guoqing was responsible for selecting domestic ancient and old books, and Zhou Jiao went to find foreign magazines and original masterpieces.

Searching through the used bookstores, the book-obsessed couple forgot the time.

After a long time, standing in front of the last used bookstore, Zhang Guoqing touched his hungry stomach, looked at the time, and looked at his excited wife with a wry smile.

After asking the store to take care of a few items in his hand, Zhang Guoqing took Zhou Jiao to find a snack bar nearby.

After the couple ordered the special dishes in the store, Zhang Guoqing looked at Zhou Jiao, who was rubbing her waist, and shook her head helplessly. Now he really doesn't plan to go shopping anymore, and it's time to go back after picking up some stationery supplies.

Zhou Jiao also has this intention. Except that it's almost time to buy, she'll start thinking about the child.

At the end of today's trip, the couple went back to the hotel with their things. As soon as they entered the old lady's room, they saw that the child was sleeping comfortably in the old lady's arms with his eyes closed, and the two of them immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

Old Lady Cheng was relieved when she saw them, and shook her head with a smile, "It's okay." The child has just been fed and asleep. Except at night, during the day he doesn't make trouble, as long as someone accompanies him. Very well-behaved. ”

Zhang Guoqing washed his hands, stepped forward to pick up the child, and found that his mother-in-law and Cheng Ruzhu had not returned. He asked curiously, "Grandma, what about my mother and sister-in-law?" ”

Mrs. Cheng shook her head and smiled, "They are better than you, and they haven't come back since lunch." While the child is asleep, you hurry up and go out on the street again to see what you want to bring back? ”

Zhang Guoqing saw that Zhou Jiao was about to move again, and knew that she had relieved herself to worry about shopping. I thought that Ming'er would accompany her to the aquatic store early in the morning, and I would accompany her to inquire where there were hairy crabs. Besides, he was embarrassed to leave the child to the old lady all day, just to rest first.

Zhang Guoqing shook his head and said to the old lady, "We have to leave tomorrow." You didn't go out on the street this time, so let Jiaojiao go out with you. I just happened to sleep with my child for a while. ”

After speaking, he saw that the old lady was hesitant, and immediately got up and went back to the room with the child in his arms. No matter how much ink you ink, I don't think you can even come back for dinner.

When Mrs. Cheng saw him leaving, she smiled and shook her head. She considered that the nanny around her was thinking about going to Huaihai for the past few days, so she asked Xiao Chen to go with her. Let them buy some gifts. As for herself, she refused Xiao Chen to follow, she and Zhou Jiao walked around the neighborhood and didn't plan to go far.

Zhou Jiao asked Xiao Chen and them to go over quickly, it was no problem to have her accompany the old lady. They were near the First Department Store, and these places were safe, so there was no need to carry orderlies with them.

Seeing them leave, Zhou Jiao held Mrs. Cheng, and the two of them whispered softly all the way affectionately.

The old lady has a lot of life experience, and during this time, she often points out the points of attention when getting along with people. At this time, she instructed Zhou Jiao to try not to be expensive the gifts she brought to her in-laws, her elders were used to saving, and they were not necessarily happy to receive them. Listening to her careful analysis, Zhou Jiao smiled and nodded. She knew that the other party must have noticed that Lin Lishan did not understand the world, and was worried that she was not in place to teach her mother.

The two of them walked along the street. Without Zhang Guoqing by her side, she didn't dare to buy indiscriminately, worried that she wouldn't be able to lift it. They go to the street purely to watch the excitement, and stop and look at what they like.

Zhang Guoqing didn't see everyone coming back one after another until dinner time. I saw that everyone was carrying a large bag and a small bag, and even the orderly and aunt bought a lot.
