After Director Li left, the director's aunt stayed and pulled Xu Huizhen to praise, Cai Quanwu can speak so well, and the praised Xu Deyong must not be bad.

Xu Huizhen was a little embarrassed to be praised, so she whispered: "Auntie Director, I can't hide it, Xu Deyong helped me come up with this idea, and Cai Quanwu's candidate was also recommended by him for me." ”

"Really?" The director looked at Xu Deyong, who was smiling and talking to everyone not far away, and suddenly felt a little stunned.

The last time we saw Xu Deyong wearing a Mao suit and Xu Huizhen together, she thought that something was wrong between the two, but there was no movement for such a long time, and she almost forgot about the two of them.

She thought for a while and said, "Don't talk about this, it's still up to you, after all, you are the private manager of the tavern and have shares." ”

Xu Huizhen smiled and said, "That's what he said." ”

The director saw the difference in Xu Huizhen's expression, and asked with a smile: "You and him...... It's done? ”

Xu Huizhen's face was a little red and said: "I won't tell you, we all have some meaning, that is, his grandmother is still a little ...... me." ”

The director said with a straight face: "It's a new society now, and your conditions are so good, her grandson has no formal job on three wheels, and he can find a high incense like you who has been burning for eight lifetimes, leave this matter to me, I will meet his grandmother to see where she is superior." ”

Xu Huizhen hurriedly said: "Don't use it first, give him some time, if there is a need, I will definitely find you old, I can always treat you as an elder." ”

The director patted her hand and said, "Hey, it's hard for you, it's Zhao Yali who told you, if not, we can't be wronged, let's find it again." ”

Xu Huizhen was stunned for a moment and said, "What did Zhao Yali and say?" ”

The director's aunt counted Zhao Yali two more sentences in her heart, and she smiled and said, "It's okay, it's okay." ”

Xu Huizhen said: "There must be something, you have to tell me, otherwise I will go back and ask Zhao Yali." ”

The director had no choice, so she vaguely raised some concerns and gossip.

Xu Huizhen naturally understood as soon as she heard it, and she smiled faintly and said: "The clear ones are self-purifying, and the turbid ones are self-turbid." ”

"Yes, yes, my aunt believes in you." The director changed the topic and said: "Zhao Yali's matter is according to what you said, in principle, I agree that she will continue to come back to be an accountant, but I still have to investigate, and I will talk to her later." ”

Xu Huizhen said: "Who will be the manager of the public side?" ”

The director's aunt was embarrassed and said: "Now that the public-private partnership is in full swing, there are really not so many suitable candidates, how about you watch the film?" He was also literate....... ”

Xu Huizhen interrupted: "Auntie, it's better to let the film master be than to let Xu Deyong be the master, he is also literate and understands a lot." ”

Naturally, she also has some selfish intentions.

The director mother hesitated: "He...... It's not that it can't be done, but he is not from our street, and if the two of you become it, there is no precedent for the public and private family ......, I have to ask Director Li for instructions on this matter, and the leader will make a decision if it succeeds. ”

Xu Huizhen said: "Cheng, you can ask." ”

The director said: "Then you can't drop the chain for me, the literacy class must be done well." ”

"Don't worry." Xu Hui said.

Everyone dispersed, Kong Yuqin and He Yumei responded to the tavern, and Xu Huizhen walked to Xu Deyong's side and said, "Go back?" Don't stay to eat! ”

Xu Deyong said with a smile: "There will be opportunities in the future, I have to go home first to make the old lady happy." ”

"Hmm." Xu Huizhen nodded, and her apricot eyes moved slightly: "Tomorrow will be the third lunar month." ”

Xu Deyong blinked and said, "What's wrong with March?" ”

Xu Huizhen glanced at him and said, "People want to go out for a walk, but they haven't been to the temple fair for the New Year." ”

Xu Deyong suddenly realized: "Yes, I won't work and take you to go shopping." ”

Xu Huizhen smiled and groaned: "Count you as acquaintances." ”

……

Fan Jin is not the only one who regrets it.

Xu Hesheng, who came to drink in the evening, heard everyone talking about this matter, and he didn't expect that a small literacy class would attract the attention of the district leaders.

If I had promised at that time, wouldn't it be simple to teach these illiterate people three religions and nine streams?

When the leader sees his performance, there is a high chance that his salary can be increased, and he can earn a few more dollars a month.

Hey, I knew I had promised at the beginning!

Xu Hesheng drank alcohol, and at this time, he couldn't pull his face and took the initiative to apply to be a "literacy teacher" again.

At that time, he did not agree in front of the people in the tavern.

didn't agree when he didn't see the benefits, and now he rushed forward when he saw the benefits, and there was no place for his face to put this comment on his face.

Besides, if people don't agree, he will have no face!

……

Xu Deyong returned to the courtyard, and Yan Bugui was squatting at the door looking at the neat stacks of briquettes and sighed.

"What's wrong, Third Master?" Xu Deyong asked casually.

Yan Bugui glanced at Xu Deyong and said: "Honeycomb coal is not easy to burn, and the smoke is always extinguished." ”

Xu Deyong's eyes narrowed slightly: "Uncle Yi, how many of them are not like this, have you found the reason?" ”

Yan Bugui said helplessly: "I was righted by your kid, I put too much loess, I blame the losers and children in the family, I have already put a little more, and when they are together, they put a little more, and a little more is more!" ”

"Hey, Deyong, is there anything you can do to remedy this?"

Xu Deyong shook his head and said, "It's okay, you still have to spend some effort to smash it and add some pulverized coal to do it again!" ”

Yan Bugui sighed and said, "Alas, it can only be like this. ”

After Xu Deyong left, the three mothers came out and said, "No way? ”

Yan Bugui said angrily: "Only the gods have a way, losers, start smashing briquettes at home from tomorrow!" ”

The three mothers were aggrieved and said: "Who knew that you put more loess, and I only put a little bit of it, and tomorrow I said that I would take the children to watch the excitement." ”

Yan Bugui said: "Look at what's lively, it's useless to see without two people in your pocket, let's work at home!" ”

When Xu Deyong returned home, Xu Nanshi was cooking by himself, but he was still not happy to take care of him.

He said with a hippie smile: "Grandma, tomorrow will be March, the ancients said that fireworks will go down to Yangzhou in March, we can't go down to Yangzhou, I'll take you to go shopping." ”

"No, no." Xu Nanshi refused and simply said: "You think people are as idle as you!" ”

After all, Xu Deyong is a two-life person, if he can't even stand the rebellious emotions of his "own grandmother", then he will live in vain.

He was still smiling and talking to himself about today's leader's inspection of the literacy class.

Although Xu Nanshi looked expressionless, Xu Deyong could see that she was listening carefully .......

The courtyard is dimly lit, and every family has a small scripture that is difficult to read.

……

"On the second of February, the dragon raised its head; On March 3, Xuanyuan was born".

Entering the third month of the lunar calendar, spring is bright, and it is a good time to go out!

March 3 was called the Shangsi Festival in ancient times, and there is an ancient folk custom for the god of fertility of "sacrificing to Gaoqi".

It is also the earliest "Valentine's Day", "Zhou Li Matchmaker" recorded: "In the month of mid-spring, men and women will be ordered, so the time is also, and those who run can't help it." ”

There is a saying of "three mountains and five peaks" in the city, and these places are the most active places for temple fairs and incense fairs.

The so-called "three mountains" refer to Miaofeng Mountain in Mentougou, Tiantai Mountain in Shijingshan, and Yaji Mountain in Pinggu.

The "five tops" are the "East Top" outside the Dongzhi Gate, the "South Top" outside the Yongding Gate, the "West Top" of the Changchun Bridge outside the Xizhi Gate, the "Middle Top" of the Grass Bridge outside the You'an Gate and the "North Top" near the Bird's Nest today.

Among them, the incense festival belonging to Myomine Mountain is the most prosperous. The incense meeting is essentially a kind of folk flower meeting, that is, the "Shehuo" of the Song and Yuan dynasties, after hundreds of years of development, a very formalized organization was formed in the people, and in the Ming Dynasty, these associations were officially called "incense associations".

And the temple fair, this time belongs to the peach meeting, legend has it that March 3 is the birthday of the Queen Mother, the location is not far from the east gate Xifeng Bridge south of the Pan Tao Palace (now there is no existence), the full name is "the protection of the country Taiping Pan Tao Palace".

From the first to the third day of the third lunar month, the area around Chongwenmen is crowded with people.

Xu Hui really wants to visit this "Peach Club".

Xu Deyong came to Xu Huizhen's house, and Xu Huizhen changed Xiao Li'er into new clothes in the house.

Xiao Li'er also seemed to know that she was going out, and she kept grinning and "giggling" at her.

After Xu Huizhen packed up, she got into Xu Deyong's car with Li'er in her arms, and went out of the door as if she were a family of three.

Xu Huizhen greeted familiar people with a smile on the road.

After they left, some people couldn't help whispering: "Hey, this three-wheeled kid from Nanluoguxiang is so lucky, he was actually favored by Xu Huizhen, and he won't worry about anything in the future!" ”

"Not really, in one step."

"Our family's iron head is not bad, why didn't Xu Huizhen take a fancy to it?"

"Pull it down, your iron head looks like a tiger, and I'm embarrassed to say, I heard that Fan Jinyou and Teacher Xu, who often came before, were a little interesting to her, and people didn't look at it."

"Pick flowers, pick up beauty, and finally choose the skinless one!"

"Hey, is that skinless, the most handsome and youngest ...... people."

……

The gossip of the crowd dispersed for a while.

An hour later, an old lady got off the bus and met some old people of about the same age who were walking with their children, so she went up to inquire about the tavern, and when it came to the tavern, Xu Huizhen ...... naturally mentioned.

……

Xu Deyong took Xu Huizhen and his wife along Qianmen Street to Chongwenmen, from here to the front of Pantao Palace, along the south bank of the moat with a tea shed and stalls.

At the temple fair, there are all kinds of tricks, tricks, wrestling, all kinds of seasonal snacks, and all kinds of daily necessities.

"Hey, sugar melon, sugar melon, hey......."

"Baked cakes, twisted ......."

……

The hustle and bustle, all kinds of shouting, like a picture of the Qingming River in the new era.

Xu Deyong put the car at the parking spot, and the two walked along the moat bank to the inside.

On the way, he took Xiao Li'er from Xu Huizhen's arms, Xu Huizhen was immediately liberated, looked around, bought some snacks for Xu Deyong from time to time, and was happy like a little girl.

Xiao Li'er's eyes were not enough, and she watched Xu Deyong eat from time to time, and she was greedy, and soon she was attracted by other shouts, and her little head twisted around "Lonely Brave".

Soon the little one is attracted to the colorful windmills.

The windmill is made of sorghum oranges to tie into a skeleton, with colored paper strips to form a round paper wind wheel, the wind blows the paper wheel to rotate, driving the small bamboo stick to beat the small drum, making a baba sound, there are four wheels and four drums; There are two rounds and two drums, and there are also ten rounds and ten drums.

There was a circle of children who were reluctant to leave.

"Ahhh......h Xiao Li'er screamed with her eyes.

Xu Deyong smiled and said, "Oh, you want it!" ”

"Ahhh......h Xiao Li'er was so anxious that her little hand pinched his face.

Xu Deyong stopped, and in the envious eyes of the children around him, he spent five cents to buy a small and delicate one, Xiao Li'er held it in his hand and looked at it, and then directly put it on his mouth.

Seeing this, Xu Huizhen, who was eating in her mouth and had a bulging face, took it away and said, "She's so small that she can't play, why are you buying this for her, give it to me!" ”

"Ahhh......h Xiao Lier has a lot of opinions about her mother.

Xu Hui was really happy, smiled and played with herself, and said a little coquettishly when she saw the kite seller: "I want to fly a kite." ”

Xu Deyong shook his head with a smile and said, "I can make this thing myself when I go back." ”

"I'll want to put it in a minute." Xu Huizhen tugged at his sleeve and said.

Xu Deyong saw that she rarely showed her little daughter, so he had to say, "Okay, I'll buy it." ”

There are many kinds of kites that sell, there are large and small sand swallows, long centipedes, portraits, the most beautiful is Huang Tianba's, and the cheapest is the small fart curtain, which is used to send children away, and it doesn't cost a few buckles.

Xu Huizhen chose a big sand swallow and hung it on Xu Deyong's arm.

The two soon came to the front of the Pan Tao Palace.

There is an old custom of the Pan Tao Palace temple fair, which is "tethered dolls".

In the old days, there were many people in the capital who asked for their children to "tie the dolls", people wrapped red ropes around their wrists, went to the east side of the Pan Tao Palace, and tied a mud doll placed in front of the palace after offering incense and took it home, and the son became attached to it, in order to add children and grandchildren in the coming year.

It's a pity that these lively scenes will not be seen with the suspension of the temple fair next year.

Next year, the temple site of Pan Tao Palace will be changed to glasses factory, 87 years because of the construction of the East Gate overpass Pan Tao Palace was demolished, the original site still has a "Taiping Palace Monument to protect the country".

Xu Deyong looked at the scene, there are many bitter festivals in these years, maybe it is to use the joy in it to neutralize the bitterness.

People always remember joy deeply, so there is "hope".

Now that you're full of food and drink, who remembers so many festivals? Even the New Year is tasteless......

Wandered around and got hungry!

Naturally, you have to eat something to fill it up!

Xu Deyong saw a cart pushing four small grunts, with a stove and a pot at one end, and the shelves above the pot were filled with cooked intestines as a cover to attract diners. At the other end of the car is a homemade wooden glass cover with chopsticks and ingredients, and a bench in front of the stall.

This thing is called sheep frost intestines, that is, sheep intestines are filled with sheep blood, also called "poor people's beauty", it is very cheap, and you can eat meat without spending much money.

Xu Huizhen ate almost all the way, and he didn't want to eat this thing, but Xu Deyong sat down and wanted to taste it.

The stall owner then understood: "You have a bowl!" ”

After receiving a positive reply, gently take out the sheep cream sausage from the pot with a small iron spoon and put it on the board, cut it into round slices with a knife and put it in a bowl, scoop one or two spoonfuls of soup, and then put some chili oil, sesame sauce soup, chopped coriander, garlic and other ingredients: "Gotcha, you can eat it!" ”

Xu Deyong thanked him and ate slowly, next to Xu Huizhen hugged Xiao Li'er and spoke, Xiao Li'er could only watch and eat greedily.

It is surrounded by a real interweaving like an old photo, but at this time there is a bowl of fireworks.

The ups and downs of the world, folding the word for peace, at that time it was just an ordinary .......
