Chapter 204: Dragon Boat Festival (This chapter is rushed, a lot of useless knowledge, if you don't want to see it, you don't have to order)

Two pairs of sneakers, pullback.

A pair of blue and a pair of white, similar to the canvas shoes of later generations.

This thing has been popular for decades, and it hasn't changed much, retro style.

Of course, the price is not the same as the forced price.

Now the price of the pullback is divided into eight or nine pieces to a dozen yuan a pair according to the size and color of the shoes.

The larger the shoe size, the more expensive it is, and the color white is the most expensive.

A pair of white sneakers is the "trend" pursuit and dream of young men and women in this era, which is very enviable.

But the price is prohibitive for most people.

In the era of barely making ends meet, how many people are willing to buy a pair of shoes with one-third of the average worker's monthly salary?

The origin of the Huili brand can be traced back to 27 years, a small factory called "Yichang Rubber Factory" on Tangshan Road, Shanghai, which produces "Baji" galoshes.

Later, it was renamed as "Chint Xinji Rubber Factory".

By 35 years, Zhengtai Xinji Rubber Factory officially registered the Chinese "Huili" and English "Warrior" (warrior) brands.

"Hui Li" is a transliteration of English, and the trademark is a strong man bending his bow and shooting the sun.

As for its most iconic "F-hook" red and white shoes, it will have to wait for 79 years to come out.

Xu Deyong smiled, the size of the two pairs of shoes was according to his own, and he couldn't give them to his daughter-in-law if he wanted to.

But the daughter-in-law has money, so she buys it herself if she wants to.

However, these sneakers should not be as comfortable as grandma's mille-feuille shoes.

Let's throw it in the blind box space first, anyway, it doesn't matter if you wear it for a while or not.

After Xu Deyong watered and sorted out the flowers and plants in the yard, Xiaoli'er in the house began to "hum".

He hurriedly threw down his things and went into the house to serve the little ancestor.

I went to bed early last night, Xu Huizhen was also woken up, and I heard Xu Deyong talking to Xiao Li'er while changing Xiao Li'er's clothes outside, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but smile.

It's a feeling of being down-to-earth.

At this time, there are not many men like Xu Deyong who take care of children, and she is very glad to meet them.

Wherever the mind goes, there are thousands of joys!

Xu Huizhen squinted for a while, then got up and put on her clothes and went out to wash.

I saw the father and daughter sitting next to the fish tank again, one was "babbling" by the fish tank, and the other was responding casually as if they could understand, and the "exchange" came and went.

Xu Deyong saw her come out and said with a smile: "I woke up very early today, why don't you sleep for a while?" ”

Xu Huizhen was in a good mood, her apricot eyes flowed, and she said with a touch of playfulness: "If you don't toss me, I can get up so early every day." ”

Xu Deyong smiled when he heard this: "Then we will change it to morning in the future." ”

"Spit." Xu Huizhen spat on him and said, "I didn't mean it. ”

As he spoke, he swayed his waist and went to the pool to brush his teeth.

Xu Deyong looked at her back and found that after these days, his hard work day and night, Xu Huizhen's waist and limbs have been thinned, and the whole person is more beautiful.

Well, is it because I always help?

After breakfast, Xu Deyong went to repair the courtyard, Ma Fei, the kid, still had to be trained, and the meal at grandma's house in the courtyard at noon would give her Pu and Ai from the outside.

Xu Nanshi also instructed him: "It will be the Dragon Boat Festival in two days, don't forget to insert wormwood on the door." ”

Xu Deyong said with a hippie smile: "Feudal superstition." ”

Hearing this, Xu Nanshi glared at him with disgust and said, "The ancestors have been like this for hundreds of thousands of years, and the rich people in the past are still pasting the "Divine Rune Judgment" and "Zhang Tianshi Five Poison Diagram" directly above the gate!" Wait for the Dragon Boat Festival at noon, with chicken blood to point Zhong Kui's eyes, what is called "special sand judgment", which can drive away evil spirits and keep the town safe. ”

Xu Deyong smiled and said: "It's not useless, what should I do!" ”

Xu Nanshi said: "If you believe it, you will have it, if you don't believe it, you will not have it, and there is nothing wrong with doing something." ”

Xu Deyong had no choice but to nod helplessly and said, "Yes, I won't have the door to plug in when I go back." ”

When he went home in the afternoon, Xu Deyong first put wormwood on the door and listened to the advice of others to eat a full meal.

After that, while looking at the baby, he began to weave reed curtains again, because he found that he still lacked a simple and detachable shed for the board car, so that it would not be able to dry when he took the two of them on a hot day.

……

In the blink of an eye, two days passed.

Dragon Boat Festival to, the word "duan" originally means "positive", and "noon" is "in".

Dragon Boat Festival, "Zhongzheng" also, this day at noon is the middle of the right.

The ancients took the dragon as the totem, observed the celestial phenomena at that time, the dragon Qisu flew up in the south of the sky, in the most "middle" position of the year, the Dragon Boat Festival also became a festival to worship the dragon, which is also one of the earliest origins of the Dragon Boat Race.

Therefore, the Dragon Boat Festival is also known as the "Tianzhong Festival" and "Dragon Boat Festival".

Taoism has five waxes per year, that is, Tianla, Dila, Daodao, Minsui La, Wanghou La, the fifth day of the first month of May is "Dila", so the Dragon Boat Festival has a sacrifice to the ground.

Naturally, it is rice dumplings to eat in the morning.

It is a "two-rice zongzi" made of Jiang rice, yellow rice, and jujubes.

Of course, the south is mostly salty, there are chestnut dumplings, meat dumplings, etc., in fact, in addition to commemorating Qu Yuan, there are also commemorating Wu Zixu, Jie Zitui, Cao E and other sayings.

Xu Deyong's simple canopy of reed curtains has been made, and the brackets made of wood can be folded, open the sockets made of the four corners of the board car, and then put the reed curtains on it.

It's just that this thing can't stand the wind.

Xu Deyong spread a mat on the car, hugged Xiao Li'er to it, and the little guy looked at the 'new car' with a grin.

Xu Deyong pushed the car around, Xiao Li'er shook slightly and grinned happily, and stretched out his finger to the outside and said, "Ahh......h ”

Hey, I've known that if you take your bike out to play, you might not be able to keep it in a few months.

"Pouai! Puai! ”

At this time, a concise and powerful voice came from the alley, and it was the people in the suburbs and villages who cut their own iris and mugwort leaves to sell.

After the public-private partnership, the shouting and shouting of the streets and alleys have almost disappeared.

In previous years, at this time, there would be vendors shouting in the morning: "Offering to the Buddha, black and white mulberries, big cherries!" ”

It was followed by another voice: "Jiangmi little jujube, big zongzi!" ”

At this time, Xu Hui came in from outside in a pretty manner, holding a bamboo basket in her hand, which contained the cherries, mulberries and other fruits she bought.

The people of the old capital called it "May fresh".

Xu Huizhen looked at the canopy of the board car, and said with a smile: "Well, it looks good this way, if you put flowers on it, it will be the previous float." ”

Xu Deyong smiled and saluted: "Princess, please get in the car, let me go back and pick some wild flowers and put them on." ”

"you." Xu Huizhen glanced at him with a smile and said, "I'm not a princess, just an ordinary little woman." ”

Xu Deyong stepped forward with a smile and said, "Come on, come on, I'll check and check it, see where the small ones are, and I'll rub them more in the future." ”

Xu Huizhen glared at him and ignored him: "Wash cherries and mulberries and eat." ”

"Ahh......h

Xiao Li'er sat in the car and saw what Xu Huizhen was taking, and she was so anxious that she flashed her arms, and the little guy already knew how to grab something and eat it.

Xu Deyong picked her up with a smile, nodded her little nose and said, "Little gluttonous cat." ”

Xiao Li'er shook her little head and chirped.

Xu Huizhen read while washing: "Cherry mulberry and calamus, and buy a pot of realgar wine." Yellow paper stickers are hung high outside the door, but the creditor is suspected of being afraid of the spirit talisman. ”

Xu Deyong suddenly exaggerated a little and said: "Good poetry, good poetry, the lady really made a good poem, admired and admired by her husband." ”

Xu Huizhen rolled her eyes with a smile and said, "I didn't write it, I admire it, eat yours." ”

As he spoke, he picked up a cherry and stuffed it into Xu Deyong's mouth.

Xiao Li'er was in a hurry, and she turned her head and wanted to bite, like a little milk dog.

Good guy, hold your face and gnaw it!

Xu Deyong couldn't bite half of it when he cried and laughed, so he quickly let the little guy chirp, otherwise he thought he wanted to eat himself.

Xu Huizhen also looked at it and laughed.

"Bang bang."

At this moment, there was a knock on the door outside.

Xu Huizhen smiled and said, "Who, please come in." ”

"It's me." Cai Quanwu opened the door and walked in.

Xu Deyong said: "It's no big brother, please come in." ”

Xu Huizhen said: "Manager Cai will eat some cherries first, and I will pour you tea." ”

Cai Quanwu hurriedly said: "Don't bother, I'll leave after I'm done." ”

Xu Deyong smiled and said, "It's about you and Yumei, right?" ”

Cai Quanwu rubbed his hands and grinned, "Hmm." ”

Xu Deyong said: "Now is a new society, and there is not as much red tape as before, just sit together and discuss." ”

"However, we are young after all, and we may seem a little unstable in this matter, I think that when the time comes, we will call Niu Ye, and with Niu Ye's reputation in this area, this matter will definitely be inseparable."

Cai Quanwu nodded and said, "That's better, I'm sure I'm okay." ”

Xu Deyong said: "Then it's better to choose a day than to hit the sun, let's go and talk to Niu Ye together." ”

"Give it to me, child." Xu Huizhen saw that he had something, so he stretched out his hand to take Xiao Li'er.

Xiao Li'er wrapped her cherry in her mouth, and took a look at it, and the handover was smooth.

Xu Deyong and Cai Quanwu walked to Niu Ye's house.

Niu Ye was born in the banner, his ancestors are not bad now, and his home is naturally brighter than Xu Huizhen's house, and the mansion gate and courtyard are more magnificent than the three courtyards of the film.

The two knocked on the door, and Niu Ye was tending to flowers, birds, fish and insects at home, and opened the door when he heard the movement.

When Niu Ye saw the two of them, he smiled and said, "Yo, what kind of wind blew you two over?" ”

Cai Quanwu smiled and said, "As the saying goes, if you don't have anything to do, you can't go to the Three Treasures Palace, I want to ask you for a favor." ”

Niu Ye smiled and teased: "You have become a public manager now, what can you do with me, a flat-headed commoner." ”

Cai Quanwu said: "You have tormented me, your Niu Ye is much better than me in this area." ”

Xu Deyong chuckled and said: "If you have Niu Ye, you can make fun of us, this is a lifelong event related to no big brother." ”

Niu Ye was not too surprised and said: "Cai Quanwu, you are really close to the water and the little waiter in the tavern has been taken down first!" ”

Cai Quanwu said: "Thank you." ”

"Hey." Niu Ye said: "This is a good thing, a happy event, what, you want to ask me to be a matchmaker." ”

Xu Deyong said with a smile: "No, before the big brother of Wu, he wanted to invite me and Huizhen to be the matchmakers, I thought that we were young, and I still had you to come, with you, it was basically stable." ”

Niu Ye smiled and said: "You kid don't wear a high hat for me, but now the new society is also simple, so let's do it, the eighth day of the new year is a good day, I will invite my parents to the nest...... There is no home to see, and by the way, we will discuss and discuss. ”

Cai Quanwu also said: "Thank you, Master Niu." ”

Niu Ye smiled and said, "You're polite, you two look at each other, and I'm actually going through the motions." However, this time I still have to take the happy money. ”

Cai Quanwu said: "That can't let you ride." ”

Niu Ye said: "Just kidding, Niu Ye and I are the one who wants to be faced, you kid is a complete turnover." ”

At this time, Aunt Niu came out of the house and said, "You are really, don't let guests into the house to drink tea." ”

Xu Deyong smiled and said, "Auntie, you don't have to be polite, we won't sit down if we still have something to do." ”

Niu Ye didn't care and said, "You can rest, these two boys are not guests." ”

"You, don't always rely on yourself to be famous." Aunt Niu glared at him and said.

When Niu Ye heard this, he was a little impatient and said: "What do the ladies know, why do you care so much about your affairs!" ”

Aunt Niu didn't pay attention to him, and went back to the house slowly.

Xu Deyong and Cai Quanwu stopped to chat for a while, and then the two said goodbye and left.

Niu Ye sighed and said, "Hey, the boss should marry in two years, I don't know if this family is enough." ”

When Aunt Niu heard it in the house, she said angrily: "You don't make all this mess, just drink less wine." ”

Niu Ye said: "Hey, then what am I still alive for, just die." ”

……

On the way back, Xu Deyong took a job, separated from Cai Quanwu, and went home to work on a board bike.

After finishing his work, he passed by the consignment store at the entrance of the vegetable market, and when he saw that there was still some time before lunch, he touched his bulging pocket, stopped and walked in.

"What do comrades need?" The salesman asked when he saw him come in.

Xu Deyong smiled and said, "I'll take a look at it casually." ”

The salesman didn't bother anymore when he heard this.

Xu Deyong looked around, landed on a copper kettle that looked quite delicate, and asked, "What is this?" ”

The salesman said, "This is a copper hand pot." ”

"Hand pot?" Xu Deyong blinked.

The salesman said with a smile: "It is what used to warm the hands of dignitaries and nobles in winter, and put hot water or charcoal in it." ”

Xu Deyong smiled and said, "Hey, this thing seems to be a little useful, how much money?" ”

The salesman smiled and said: "This is sold by others, saying that it is something that flowed out of the palace in the past, but it is not cheap, and it costs ten yuan." ”

"Ten pieces!" Xu Deyong suddenly felt a little too expensive when he heard this price.

The salesman said: "It's a bit expensive, but our estimates are based on ......." ”

He was about to introduce it in detail, Xu Deyong waved his hand and said, "Forget it, I don't understand what you said, I don't want this." ”

At this time, he saw something that interested him, an old stamp ...... kept by people.

Stamp?

How many numbers are coming today, June 13th.

He suddenly remembered that later generations had seen the stamp information that "Tiananmen Square shines".

It seems that on June 15, a set of special stamps of "Famous Places in the Capital" will be issued, with a full set of 5 stamps, respectively with the Summer Palace, Beihai, Tiananmen Square, Temple of Heaven, and Taihe Palace.

Among them, the Tiananmen stamp artwork shows the morning scenery of Tiananmen Square, the sun rises in the east, and the light is shining, but the effect of the stamp printing is not as bright as Tiananmen "The stamp is good, and the auspicious clouds over Tiananmen Square form a direct light.

The glare was so uncomfortable that some people raised objections before it was issued, and the Ministry of Posts and Telecommunications decided to stop issuing the stamp and withdraw it, but in some places it had already been sold in advance.

The result is this extremely precious misprinted stamp!
