Chapter 499: Perception of the Times
Although they didn't want to buy anything, everyone still stayed in the dowry shop and waited for the three of them to come and answer. You can't really let people take the quilt to the street, right? What's more, most of the people here are guests.
But they didn't let everyone wait long, and the three of them came with the carriage and the horses.
"What's going on?" No matter how capable Zhao Ziheng is, it is impossible to intercept people so quickly, he should have met Lu Deshun and Zhou Li who came back with a carriage and sycophants.
"There's no one in the shop." Lu Deshun explained the reason in a few simple words.
"Let's just go back down the street and see if there's anything else we need to buy." This fishing is also said by Qingyu in order to resolve the embarrassment. If they do go fishing, they don't know where to fish? Now I can only take one step at a time.
Walking on the street, because it is still in the middle of the day, and it is also the time of the day, there are not many vendors on the street. There are only a few small items that are placed in places that are not exposed to the sun, and there are also those who sell rock sugar gourds.
Zhang Mengjie has only eaten rock sugar gourd once, not because she has no money to buy it, but because she doesn't like to eat it. She didn't understand that the protagonists in the novel either bought rock sugar gourds for themselves or the people around them every time they went out, and they all said that they were delicious, but she really didn't think it was delicious. I didn't taste any sweet and sour.
Zhang Mengjie doesn't think it's delicious, but some people don't think so! Listen to the vendor shouting at the top of his voice: "Sell sugar gourds!" Delicious sugar gourd! "Leave Qingyu, Chunlan, and Qiu Ju all saliva behind.
Zhang Mengjie has never been the master of mistreating his subordinates, so he asked Qian San to buy a large handful of rock sugar gourds.
Although it is a little strange for the man to eat a rock sugar gourd, there are no people on the street at this time, the key is that they are guests! Whether they want to eat it or not, this etiquette still has to be comprehensive.
Anyway, everyone ate the rock sugar gourd in their hands, and Zhang Mengjie didn't ask them if it was delicious, but only said that if they still wanted to eat it, they would let Qian San buy it again. Anyway, the money that was said to sell the dowry didn't cost much. None of them said they wanted to eat it. Zhang Mengjie didn't delve into whether these people were raised with their mouths, or whether this rock sugar gourd was really not that delicious.
After all, it's not time yet, it's not fun to wander around like this, and Xiao Meier chose a set of head jewelry for Qingfeng, and everyone really had the intention of going fishing.
"Go! I want to go see the fifth brother. When everyone was discussing to find a river pond for fishing, Yu Xilang said.
"Anyway, we don't know where to go fishing, or we will go in the direction of the city gate, if we meet the fifth prince, they can also let him go fishing together, if not, we can find a suitable river pond to fish while waiting for them." Yu Xilang must be worried about Yu Xiyao, who has not heard from him, and Zhang Mengjie also said according to his meaning.
"It's okay, it will save you some time." It was Android Yi who spoke very little.
After no one objected, the woman got into the carriage, except for Qian San, who was driving, and Lin Fan, Zhou Li, who couldn't ride a horse, everyone else got on the horse.
Fishing is also boring, and at this time, everyone's mind is on going to the city gate, so even if they see the river pond on the way, everyone does not stop to fish.
After about half an hour, the group came to the gate of the city.
Just as everyone was looking for Yu Xiyao, Yu Xiyao walked out of the nearby tea shed. Yu Xilang saw that Yu Xiyao did not let go of his worries, but became even more melancholy. Although he didn't want his fears to come true, he didn't want to make a fool of himself now.
Not to mention Yu Xilang and Yu Xiyao, even Zhang Mengjie felt that something was wrong. The ancients had an error in their estimates, but the error was too great. What's more, Zhuang Mingxuan, a person from an outer city, can get Yu Xiyao's ability to value him so much.
When she learned that Mingyue Gongzi and Fang Qianya were on the nearby mountain for Fang Qianya to put what she had learned into practice, Zhang Mengjie asked Zhao Ziheng to take Xiao Chengyi and them to go around the mountain, maybe there was a river pond on the mountain.
Zhao Ziheng saw that the mountain where Mingyue Gongzi and Fang Qianya went was not very high, so he asked Zhang Mengjie to accompany him, and the secret meaning also revealed that if there was really something, it would be more useful for him to stay here. Zhang Mengjie thought about it and made sense, so she followed Zhao Ziheng's wishes.
In addition to Zhao Ziheng, Lu Deshun, and Android Yi also stayed. Android Yi stayed, Amina, Zabare, and Qu Fengya also stayed.
Thinking of the contradictions between Android Yi and the others and Mingyue Gongzi and Fang Qianya in the past two days, Zhang Mengjie did not force it, it was more reassuring for them to stay here. Before going up the mountain, Zhang Mengjie also asked Qian San to leave some silver for Zhao Ziheng.
The rest of the people came to the mountain, not to mention that they saw a river pond, not only as soon as they reached the top of the mountain, they saw the river pond, but also saw the bright moon boy who was leisurely fishing for fish by the river pond.
Although she didn't see Fang Qianya, but seeing that Mingyue Gongzi was so leisurely, Fang Qianya was definitely fine.
Everyone didn't say hello to Mingyue Gongzi, but some people started to make temporary fishing rods, and some people really went to see if there were any snails by the river pond.
As soon as Zhang Mengjie arrived at the top of the mountain, she habitually looked down the mountain. Although this mountain is not high, you can see the whole town under the mountain, not only that, but you can also see the scene ten miles outside the city. The ancestors of Xiangbi also took a fancy to this point when they set up the gate of the city here.
The ancients still knew a lot about the time and space they were in, not counting the last time they left the palace, Qingyu hadn't been out of the palace for at least seven or eight years, right? But what she said about being able to pick up snails by the river pond is really true. When the two monarchs and several masters made simple fishing rods, Zhou Li, Lin Fan, Qingyu, Chunlan, and Qiu Ju had already picked up almost a bowl of snails.
It's a pity that the buckets of this era are all wooden barrels, and there are no small ones. There were no bags to hold, and a few people casually threw them aside. Thinking of the bag, Zhang Mengjie's eyes lit up, although she couldn't make plastic bags in this era, she could let Ma Bo make oilcloth bags out of oilcloth, which was much stronger than modern plastic bags. came up with another money-making object, and Zhang Mengjie's mood was a little better.
Almost a quarter of an hour later, perhaps the water by the river pond was muddy by a few people, and they couldn't see where the snails were, and a few people also went ashore very consciously and collected the scattered snails in one place. There was nothing to pack, and several people were also frowning in distress.
Zhang Mengjie looked at the trees on the mountain and the leaves under the trees, and also thought of something, and said to the distressed people: "You look around, do you have any leaves as big as Jinpa."
"Is there a leaf that big?" Chunlan, who was still thinking about it, asked subconsciously.
Zhang Mengjie said: "Look for it and find out if there is one!" It doesn't have to be leaves, but unfortunately there are no lotus leaves here, and you can also see if there are any plants like lotus leaves. ”
A plant like a lotus leaf? Zhou Li seemed to think of something, and ran on the way back and forth with a "whoosh". (To be continued.) )
