Chapter 78: Let's Go to the Meeting
"Yesterday, Xiao Zhangzi was curious, and went to the riverside to see, it is said that a shelf has been set up by the riverside, and many people have been hired to tie red paper tweed, and I don't know what to do in the yamen."
Xiao Zhangzi is the son of Lao Zhang, an elder worker invited by the family, who is nine years old this year and very lively.
Bai Ling also smiled and said: "Yes, Xiao Zhangzi also said that there are already many small traders who have set up stalls there on a street by the Dufuyang River, all of which sell all kinds of snacks, and our family's Imperial Zhai has also set up a stall there, specializing in selling a few exquisite dim sum gift boxes." Now there are talented people on the river every day to hold poetry meetings on the boat painting boat, which is lively. ”
Zhu Youning listened with some interest.
Since she came to ancient times, she has never seen such a big move in Fuyang County. Even for the Chinese New Year, it's just fireworks.
Thanks to the blessing of this "Miao Moxiang" girl, their boring life was enriched all of a sudden.
It seems that no matter ancient or modern, "chasing stars" is an elegant thing that does not fall behind.
"Well, don't look at me wandering around all day, but I'm not sure if my dad will allow me to go out when I get home. If I could, I'll take you with me that day. Zhu Youning said with a smile, "I'm quite curious about that snack street." ”
Bai Ling and Thrush glanced at each other and laughed, "Don't worry, girl, the lord and the wife love you so much, as long as you like it, they don't allow it." ”
Zhu Youning also thinks so.
Sure enough, on the matter of eating, drinking, and having fun, Zhu Huating and the Bai family reached a consensus.
"It's okay to play, but you have to be safe." Bai said, "I'm not physically convenient, so I won't go." When the time comes, ask your dad to bring a few more people and go with you. ”
"How's that going to work? Dad still has to stay at home with his mother. It's not good if there's something going on at home. Zhu Youning looked at Bai's stomach and felt very worried.
This is ancient times, not modern times with advanced medicine, and it is not a trivial matter for women to give birth, and if they don't do it well, they will lose their lives.
Seeing that Zhu Youning was so nervous, Bai couldn't help laughing: "Your father is not a stable mother, even if your mother has something, it is useless for him to be at home, but will make trouble." ”
"How can I make trouble!" Zhu Huating was not convinced.
"Won't? When I gave birth to Brother Qing before, who wanted to break in and startled Wen Po? I gave birth to a blessed girl, and as soon as people said that there might be a difficult birth, you rushed in directly, squeezed out of the stable woman and wanted to come by yourself, you talk about you, isn't it a troublemaker? ”
Zhu Huating's face was red when Bai said it, and even the roots of his ears were red, "My daughter is here, what are you talking about." ”
Bai Shi joked, and his face turned a little red.
Zhu Youning forcibly ate a mouthful of dog food, and withdrew silently with a very good look.
In the blink of an eye, it was the eighteenth day.
Zhu Youning was reconciling accounts with Xu Da's shopkeeper in Qianzhuang, when he saw Li Tuobei's buckle running into the door, and when he saw Zhu Youning, his face was happy, "Miss Nine is here." He turned and ran out again.
Zhu Youning was feeling strange, when he saw Li Tuobei jump over the threshold and strode in.
"I just went to the cloth factory to look for you, you weren't there, I thought you were home."
Zhu Youning handed over the account book to Xu Da's shopkeeper to put it away, and wiped his hands with a handkerchief with a smile, "Why did you leave school so early today?" ”
"There are no classes at the county school today." Li Tuobei sat down on a circle chair in the lobby.
The lark and thrush cleverly served tea and snacks.
Zhu Youning sat down on the other side of the small table and said with a smile: "Why don't you go to class?" Did your husband go to the conference again? ”
"That's not it, my husband's classmates have already met twice. But today is the day of the song and dance conference, and my husband's friend rented a painting boat and went to Fuyang River early to grab a place. ”
The cabaret was held in the evening, and each brothel had an elaborate boat for the Oiran to perform on deck.
If you are rich, you can watch along the river if you have a boat with a painting boat, and if you have a boat, you are not afraid of being tired and panicked with your neck up. Those who do not have boats can also be seen from the embankment on the shore.
Early this morning, Xiao Zhangzi went to see the excitement, and when he came back, he said that there were a lot of painting boats parked on the river. The Zhu family's building boat is also there, and the most magnificent one is it.
"Are you going to see a song and dance tonight?" Li Tuobei asked, "Why don't I go and tell Uncle Zhu, I'll take you out to play." ”
Zhu Youning was a little moved, she didn't really want her father to leave her mother's side, after all, the Bai family was about to give birth now. The family really shouldn't leave people because of such a trivial thing as coming out to play. Although the subordinates are all there, there is no elder in the family, there is Zhu Huating, and the Bai family also has a backbone.
"Actually, my father promised to take me out before, but my mother is heavy now, and I don't want my father to leave my mother. But if my father doesn't follow, my mother will never allow me to come out. There must have been a lot of people at night, and she must have been afraid that I would be abducted. ”
Li Tuobei smiled, "Okay, I'll leave this matter to my brother, and my brother will tell your father and mother." Flying Dragon Soup and Buddha Jumping Over the Wall Kung Fu are not ordinary, and your brother is a master of invincible opponents all over the world! The two of us bring so many people, I promise we won't lose you. ”
"But don't you go to the Zhu family's painting boat at night and watch the song and dance with them?"
"What's the point of singing and dancing, besides, those people are yin and yang, I don't bother to deal with them. I'm like a soybean in your house, and I don't fit in. In fact, I was more interested in the snack street on the shore than watching some greasy and crooked songs and dances on the boat. ”
This time, Zhu Youning giggled.
The button meat and vinegar fish on one side also lowered their heads and smiled.
Li Tuobei thought about it, and also felt a little funny, "Hey, I've really been talking about eating." ”
Zhu Youning cleared his throat and said sincerely: "Actually, I'm also more interested in the snack street." ”
"Hey, then we're still confidants."
"yes, because I don't think it's interesting to watch those beautiful sisters sing and dance."
Li Tuobei was stunned for a moment, and then blinked before saying, "You mean, if the performance is replaced by a beautiful brother, you will like to watch it?" ”
"Well, you're thinking too much."
"I don't think I'm thinking too much."
……
Li Tuobei followed Zhu Youning home, and he didn't know what method he used, so he persuaded Zhu Huating and Bai before dinner, and coaxed Bai to smile, and ate half a bowl of rice for dinner.
Zhu Huating was not at ease in the end, so he arranged for Mama Cui and two reliable little maids to follow, and called Thrush and Bailing over and told him carefully, "Don't leave the girl's side." ”
Both of them responded seriously, looking like they were ready to fight.
Li Tuobei and Zhu Huating repeatedly assured that they took Zhu Youning out of the door.
The two walked in front, followed by a group of entourage, turned the spacious street in front of Zhu's house, and headed in the direction of the river.
