When he reached the fork in the road, Zhu Zhan let go of Lilac's little hand.

He regretted it in his heart. He is also Xiangxiang's brother, if Xiangxiang is younger, he will be able to hug this little sister like Ding Lichun hugged her last year.

When Fang'er was alive, she liked to hold her by herself.

Although there is not much contact, Lilac also likes this big brother very much.

She glanced back at Zhu Zhan, who was striding away.

Such a big boy who doesn't like to talk and is unfamiliar with him, he actually talked to him all the way.

In her previous life, she was not good at words, and when she met someone who didn't like to talk, it was very embarrassing to get along.

And in this life, she has become a social cow.

This is the edification of the family. Her family loves and talks about it, and she has developed an extroverted personality.

Zhu Zhan suddenly turned around and caught the "peeping" Lilac squarely.

Lilac smiled brightly, and Zhu Zhan also grinned and waved to her.

In the guest room, Ding Zhao was talking with Zhang and Ding Lichun.

Hearing that Zhu Qian invited his family to the main courtyard for dinner, Ding Zhao took out his pocket watch from his arms, opened it and glanced at it and said, "I'll go in half an hour."

It's really handsome.

Lilac feels that her father looks very much like the male stars who took out their pocket watches and looked at pocket watches in film and television dramas in their previous lives, and they are particularly temperamental.

She said, "Daddy, you look good with your pocket watch."

Ding Zhao laughed and said, "It's not that your father's posture is good-looking, it's that this pocket watch is good-looking. If Daddy had picked up a lump of iron, you wouldn't have that opinion."

After speaking, he opened the pocket watch in a chic manner, closed it again, and put it in his arms.

Lilac nodded, having to admit that he was right. The same person holding different things will have different sensory impressions.

It's no wonder that women in previous lives liked to buy beautiful bags.

Zhang said, "General Zhu is back, Lichun's injuries are also healed, let's move to Ding's house tomorrow, it's not good to live in someone else's house."

Ding Xiang and Ding Lichun haven't been to Ding's house yet. Listening to Ding Zhao and Zhang's words, the inside is extremely exquisite and beautiful.

There are several yards, gardens, and ponds, and all the things in the house are neatly arranged, so that people can live in them as soon as they enter.

The dressing table in Zhang's and Lilac House is inlaid with large glass mirrors, and many of the furniture is not only carved with flowers, but also painted with foreign lacquer.

If it weren't for Mrs. Zhu's good health because of eating ginseng, Zhang's would be under a lot of pressure again.

Several people wanted to move as soon as possible.

Zhang discussed with Lilac, "You are still young, you will have a yard with your father and mother for the time being, and then live alone when you grow up."

Ding Zhao also means this.

Lilac didn't want to, "I'm not young anymore, some people's children live alone in a yard when they are three years old. Don't worry, I have Aya'er to serve."

Seeing Zhang's entanglement of not worrying about his daughter and not wanting to make her unhappy, Lilac thought of her biological mother who was far away in the capital.

If Princess Dongyang was so concerned about the child, the next person would not be so easy to get it. However, even if those people are afraid of themselves, if they can't steal it, they will find a way to kill themselves......

Ding Zhao said, "Ding Zhai came here, walked for more than two quarters of an hour, and sat in a carriage for more than a quarter of an hour. Every day, Xiangxiang still comes to accompany Mrs. Zhu and go home at night to rest."

My son is healed from his injuries and should go home after a few more days.

Lilac nodded, she also wanted to accompany Mrs. Zhu more before going home.

Ding Lichun said again, "Tomorrow I will accompany you to go shopping, and I will talk to Brother Zhu again and take you to the warship to play."

He couldn't move his left shoulder, but he had no problem walking.

Zhang said, "What's the big ship to look at, you guys go."

When it was time, Ding Zhao and the others went to the main courtyard together.

They all ate in the flower hall, several men drank at one table, and Mrs. Zhu ate at the other table with Zhang's and Lilac.

Zhu Qian first thanked the old shopkeeper Ding for giving him such a good ginseng, and said, "The old shopkeeper is very talented, and he can make such a good fine iron. If the iron is done well, not only is it safer, but the target is also farther away. Not to mention firearms, it's cold

The weapons are much more powerful......

Because of his background, he has never been fully trusted by the imperial court. If he gets involved in this matter of benefiting the country and the people again, and vigorously improves firearms, the emperor and the elders will not be able to ignore him.

It was an unexpected surprise.

Ding Zhao happened to bring up the matter of moving and returning home.

As soon as they said that they were leaving, Mrs. Zhu showed reluctance. She knew that it was impossible for her children to live in her own house all the time, and it was impossible not to let her children go back to the countryside, but she was reluctant.

Zhu Qian said, "I should go back earlier, there are only two children and the old shopkeeper left at home, and I don't feel at ease. Stay a few more days, and then come back in the middle of the month."

He smiled at Mrs. Zhu again, "The Ding Mansion is close to our house, they moved there, you can go over and relax." If you don't want to walk, let Xiangxiang come over to accompany you. Even if she returns to Linshui County, I will occasionally send someone to bring her to Jiaozhou to play."

Mrs. Zhu was a little embarrassed, and said with a smile, "Look at what the master said, it seems that I am bullying other people's children and not letting go."

Ding Lichun said again that he wanted to take his sister to see the warship.

Ding Qian said, "This is easy to do, let Zhan'er arrange it, and make a special 'Meng Chong, take you to play for a day.'"

"Mengchong" is a medium-sized warship used for attack and pursuit.

Lilac is so happy that her eyebrows and eyes are crooked.

This is the privilege, which is better than riding on a private yacht in a previous life.

Lilac said again, "Uncle, can you give me a bottle of Black Whale sunscreen?" I'm afraid of tanning."

As soon as I was excited, I called out the scale in my heart.

Zhu Qian laughed loudly, "This name is good, and it will be called Black Whale Sunscreen in the future." I'll have someone get you a bottle."

The paste didn't have a name before, it was all called big fish oil.

It was rare for Zhu Qian to laugh so heartily.

After the meal, the girl took a bottle of Black Whale sunscreen oil to Lilac.

It is a small, thin-necked, pot-bellied white porcelain vial depicting a whale, stuffed with a wooden cork and wrapped in a cloth.

When the cloves are corked, there is a fragrance, mixed with a faint fishy smell.

Pour a few drops in the palm of your hand, pale yellow, sticky, somewhat like sunscreen from the previous life.

Lilac didn't think about making a sunscreen business.

In this era, people who can afford sunscreen and are afraid of tanning do not need to come out to bask in the sun, and there are very few people like Zhu Qian who bask in the sun every day and are particular. For example, Qin Hai, he has money, but he would rather tan than bother to rub sunscreen.

There is not much market for sunscreen that can be made at a high price.

The subordinates retreated, and Zhu Qian took out two big red apples given by Ding Zhuang, "Uncle said, after eating the apples, let you take the pits back to raise seedlings."

Ding Zhuang picked twelve red apples to them. Zhu Qian asked Qin Hai to take back four, and specially instructed him to send three to Heikouwan, and watch them eat before taking back the kernels.

Qin Hai's father, Qin Jin, his wife Miao, and his third son, Qin Li, live in Heikouwan. It is a small town by the sea, more than 100 miles away from Jiaozhou Capital.

These red apples are rare, washed and unpeeled, and each cut into eight teeth.
