After the sunset, the cool mountain breeze dispels the boring heat, and the city of Yuzhou, which has entered early summer, finally cools down.

These days, with the smooth implementation of the pox method, more and more people have been vaccinated with pox vaccines, and pox cases are almost extinct in Yuzhou, and the tension in Yuzhou has eased a lot.

The Jun porcelain kiln in Shenyuan Town officially resumed work, and the Juntai Porcelain Workshop also announced that it would take out 12 pieces of top Jun porcelain for auction.

The city of Yuzhou has finally returned to its former bustle, and even ushered in a wave of vengeful consumption frenzy, even after sunset, the shops on the street are still full of customers.

As a result, more than a dozen guilds in the city, led by the Jun Porcelain Guild and the Medicinal Material Guild, jointly petitioned Zhizhou Weichen for help, hoping to open for business as usual after dark.

Wei Chen has nothing to do with this.

Because of the epidemic, tens of thousands of people in Yuzhou have been at home for more than two months, and now it is time to vent to their heart's content, as if it is a city-wide celebration at the end of the epidemic, it can also promote commerce and trade in the city.

Generally speaking, the night market is only over for the third watch, and the morning market is open for the fifth watch, during which there is only two hours of curfew, which is basically seamless.

Wei Chen is just imitating the annual Shangyuan Festival, announcing that the curfew time for these two hours will be completely lifted.

As soon as the news came out, Yuzhou City was jubilant, the people went out one after another, and the major shops were also waiting for it, and for a time Yuzhou City actually had a bit of a celebratory atmosphere during the Shangyuan Festival.

In the evening of this day, after Wei Chen finished handling government affairs, he had nothing to do, so he changed into civilian clothes and took Yuan'an out to go shopping together.

After finding a good restaurant at random and having dinner, Wei Chen took advantage of the moonlight and walked slowly and leisurely, arriving at the most prosperous Guandi Temple Street in Yuzhou City.

】

On the street, there is a lot of people.

In order to attract customers, shops on both sides of the street hang a string of lanterns high above their doors, reflecting the street lights.

Not only the shops, but also the street vendors hang all kinds of interesting lanterns at the front of the stalls, singing and shouting in tunes to attract the attention of passers-by.

Wei Chen strolled through the market in a scribe's shirt, and his casual and elegant demeanor stood out from the crowd, attracting many women on the street.

There were a few ladies from noble families who covered their faces with small fans, but they still couldn't help but peek at Wei Chen.

Of course, there are also bold ones, pulling Yuan An, who is a companion at first glance, and asking him about Wei Chen's identity.

Fortunately, Yuan An is very clever, and he has been by Wei Chen's side for so long, and he also has a lot of experience in dealing with these miscellaneous things, so he didn't let Wei Chen worry too much.

After sending away an entangled woman again, Yuan An caught up with Wei Chen in front of him, and said with a muttering voice: "Young master, don't come out by yourself in the future, you should wear an official robe when you come out, so as to calm people down." The way you are now, how many people are rushing to ask you to be your son-in-law. Look at my newly made sleeves! ”

Hearing Yuan'an's complaints, Wei Chen couldn't help laughing, and he was quite helpless about this in his heart, who would have thought that after the summer, the weather would become hotter, and people's hearts would also become hotter?

Although the atmosphere of this Great Zhou Dynasty is much stricter than that of the Tang Dynasty, it is still quite open compared to the Ming and Qing dynasties in Wei Chen's previous life.

For example, in the Great Zhou, it was common for widows to remarry, especially wealthy widows, who were even more sought-after.

A few decades ago, there was even a bloody incident in which two important ministers fought for a widow with hundreds of thousands of family assets and brought the lawsuit to the Son of Heaven.

In addition, the ladies who have not been out of the cabinet in the Great Zhou Dynasty are not out of the door, and they have heard a lot about going out to enjoy the flowers, visiting relatives and friends, or organizing poetry meetings together by several sisters.

In the city of Yuzhou, there is such a poetry society, which gets together once every half a month, and I heard that there are not only the daughter of Huang Shouzheng and Zhao Zongquan's sister-in-law Shen Jiaxiao, but also several local gentry and famous ladies.

As soon as several poetry meetings opened, the poems of the ladies also circulated one after another, and Zhao Ceying also took a volume of poems by Shen Xiaomei Yong Lotus and went to the state government to let Wei Chen and Gu Tingye taste them.

Wei Chen saved a little face for Zhao Ceying, and after reading it, he just shook his head and smiled, and did not speak.

Gu Tingye is a foolish character, and immediately commented: "The kung fu of ink black, paper white, and binding is also first-class. Rare, rare! ”

Wei Chen and Zhao Ceying couldn't help but be stunned for a moment when they heard this, and immediately understood the meaning of Gu Tingye's words, and they couldn't help but laugh.

Wei Chen is a recognized poet in the Great Zhou Dynasty, so he can naturally see how Shen Xiaomei's poems are, not to mention unsightly, it must be lackluster.

Some poems don't even match the basic level, and they are not as good as those Mengtong who have only studied for one or two years in Sheng's Yixue.

However, Shen Xiaomei's poems are not very well written, but she is also a girl who has not yet come out of the cabinet, and she is Zhao Zongquan's sister-in-law.

It is said that after Shen Xiaomei heard about this from Zhao Ceying, she was so angry that she tore up the book of poems at that time, and vowed not to write poems again.

In order to give his sister a head, Shen Congxing knew that he was not Gu Tingye's opponent, but he still went to the door to ask Gu Tingye for an appointment, but he was beaten by Gu Tingye in vain and returned in embarrassment.

In the end, Wei Chen and Zhao Zongquan came forward to mediate, and set up a table of wine and food in Jiying Restaurant, so that Gu Tingye sincerely apologized to the Shen brothers and sisters.

After that banquet, Gu Tingye and the Shen family brothers and sisters laughed and grudge, and Wei Chen was not very clear about what happened after that.

I only know that Gu Tingye seems to have gradually come out of the blow of Zhu Manniang's death, regained his former vigor, and there are many heartfelt smiles on his face.

In his spare time, Gu Tingye led people to ride horses to the banks of the Yellow River to catch carp, and then sent them to the Tuanlian Mansion in baskets.

The Tuanlian Mansion also laughed at this, and those who came did not refuse, and always left Gu Tingye to eat in the mansion.

"Gu Tingye, this kid, shouldn't it be a second spring, right?"

On the bustling Guandi Temple Street, Wei Chen had just finished shopping at a medicinal herb shop, and suddenly thought of Gu Tingye's recent abnormal behavior, and couldn't help touching his chin and pondering.

However, before Wei Chen could think about it, a rapid hoof sound came from nowhere, and the sound came from far and near, and suddenly came to the front.

Wei Chen raised his head in surprise and followed the prestige, but saw four or five riders riding horses to meet him, and the leader was the captain of the Yuzhou Public Security Brigade, Gu Tingye.

Wei Chen couldn't help but laugh dumbly when he saw this, this is really Cao Cao, Cao Cao is here!
