Chapter 325: Market riot
As soon as he said he was going to Dalui Village, Ah Li thought of Xiao Nuobao, and couldn't help but smile.
He glanced at the picture book in the hands of the national teacher, and seemed to have thought of something, and hurried to look through the boxes.
After choosing, Ah Li chose the most valuable gold-inlaid jade Pixiu pendant from among the items, ran over and hung it on Mu Yihan's waist.
Mu Yihan only glanced at it, and clenched his fist in an unbearable manner.
The whole body of the little Pixiu was shining with gold.
It was decorated with two emerald green jades as eyes.
Although it was rich and powerful, it was a bit too nouveau riche to hang it around the waist.
"Why did you let me wear this thing? It's inappropriate and has the same taste as you, you idiot!" Mu Yihan was so disgusted that words came out from between his teeth.
Ali begged him even at the risk of being scolded, "Please wear it for now, just for one day, maybe it will come in handy today."
He was also well-intentioned.
Think about it, his own national teacher is obsessed with comic strips all day long and can't let go.
If he really meets the real owner today, he must prepare some gifts to please the child.
And the more expensive the gift, the better.
Ali is sure that the gold and jade inlaid fortune-attracting Pixiu is definitely a good thing for men, women, young and old!
Mu Yihan shook off his ink-colored robe, and was too lazy to take it away, so he just let Ali do it.
After leaving Qingqing Inn, the two rode two fast horses all the way north.
After walking for about a quarter of an hour, they arrived at the fork in the road leading to Daliu Village, which was not far away.
However, at this moment, at the intersection ahead, an ox cart and a donkey cart happened to knock over each other.
The apples and dry firewood on the carts were scattered all over the ground, blocking the road.
"This..." Ali pulled the reins and had to stop.
He stretched his neck to see, and wanted to try to ride across, but it was impossible.
It was not impossible to force his way through, but the fruits on the ground would definitely be damaged.
Looking at the farmers in front, they were complaining to each other while kneeling on the ground desperately picking up, which was quite pitiful.
Mu Yihan shook his head, "It's not easy to be a farmer. We can't pick all the fruits in a short time. Let's change the way. Ali, is there any other way to go?"
Ali took out the map on his body, pointed twice with his fingers, and murmured, "Yes, there is a detour, which has to pass through a place called Zhangjia Village. It will probably take half an hour longer."
Mu Yihan glanced at the sky. It was still early.
"Well, since we have time, let's take a detour."
"Drive!"
The two of them turned around and headed towards Zhangjia Village along another intersection not far away...
At
this moment, the big market in Zhangjia Village was the busiest time.
Next to the farmland, a muddy village road was where people usually gathered.
The vendors had already taken their seats, and were selling fancy fabrics non-stop.
The peddlers were carrying cheap rouge, powder, wreaths, toys, candied haws and other snacks, and were walking around the market.
In the nearby villages, there was only this one big market, so many people from various villages came.
Jiang Fengnian had just arrived, and seeing that the ox cart would not fit in, he stopped at the edge of a field not far away.
"Mom, Nuobao, we're here. Wait until I tie up the ox before you get off." He turned around and reminded her with a smile.
Feng picked up little Nuobao and wrapped her scarf tightly around her neck.
"Big brother, there are a lot of people at the market. You don't have to do anything later. Just hold your sister. Our little Nuobao is pretty. Don't let any beggars target her." Mrs. Feng looked at her daughter more closely than her own eyes.
Jiang Fengnian bent his eyes, tied the rope, and came to catch his sister.
Little Nuobao stretched her neck and watched the crowd in front of her move. It was so lively.
She clapped her fat paws and giggled, "There are so many people, big pot, let's go buy some candied haws and winter melon candies!" "Okay
, buy them for our little baby." Jiang Fengnian weighed his sister and strode forward.
The most tempting food at the market is not just candied haws.
There were also sesame candies, fried cakes, persimmon cakes, honeydew melons and so on.
After walking only a few steps, little Nuobao was overwhelmed by the choices and decided to buy everything to try. He held a full armful and held a candy man bigger than his face in his hand.
Feng followed behind, opening her wallet constantly, her hands never idle.
In the country market, the fabrics and rouge sold were the lowest prices, which were not acceptable to the Jiang family.
Feng mainly wanted to join in the fun, and she had to wait until the lady could no longer buy so that she could choose things by herself.
After buying two pounds of yam beans, her eyes fell on a stall selling pickled vegetables.
"Big brother, stop for a moment." Feng's eyes lit up, "This is a good thing, we have to buy a few jars to take back." Jiang
Fengnian looked back and saw that the vendors in front of his mother were selling pickled basil, garlic, pickled radish, shrimp sauce and other foods.
Feng picked up a jar of pickled sour cucumbers, asked the price, took out twenty coins, and asked for four jars.
"Mom, what is this?" Jiang Fengnian smelled the smell and felt that his mouth was about to sour.
Feng was very happy, "Mom, I haven't eaten this for many years."
"When I was still unmarried, my cousin who lived in front of the door, your aunt, was the best at making pickled cucumbers." Feng hugged the four jars, her eyes a little far away.
Cut the pickled cucumber into slices and put it in the steamed bread slices. The taste is amazing, more appetizing than meat.
"It's a pity that the elders in my mother's family passed away, and we sisters married far away, so we didn't keep in touch with each other."
Thinking that the last time she ate pickled cucumber was 20 years ago, Feng's eyes were misty with emotion.
Little Nuobao lay on his big brother's shoulder, and seeing his mother's sadness, he quickly stretched out his little hand from his sleeve and was about to touch his mother's face.
"Mom, don't be sad. When Nuobao grows up, I will make pickled cucumber for you!" Little Nuobao patted his chest and said anxiously.
The slight melancholy that Feng had just felt disappeared immediately after her daughter's comfort.
"Why should you be sad? Anyway, I haven't seen my relatives in my hometown for so many years. I don't know whether they are alive or dead, and I will almost forget them." Feng kissed her daughter's hand and felt very comforted. "As long as you are by my side, it is God's blessing and the best family love for me."
With such a sensible and good daughter accompanying her all day long, Feng really felt that she was the most blessed mother in the world.
Little Nuobao immediately smiled, shaking his head and saying, "Yes, yes, Nuobao has a mother, and is the happiest baby!"
Feng and Jiang Fengnian smiled with relief, one holding the girl's feet, the other holding the sister's hand, and continued to stroll.
But at this moment, suddenly, a few sarcastic words came from the front.
"Who did I think it was? You were so picky about buying a cotton hat. It turned out to be you, the stinky widow who killed your husband's family!" "
You have brought great bad luck to our Qiaotou Village, and now you dare to show off in the market, you are really shameless!" The fierce male voice was full of anger.
Hearing the sound, Xiao Nuobao raised his head unhappily, and saw that the person who was scolding was a middle-aged man with a chubby face.
The humiliated woman on the side, with a red face, turned out to be Li Yiner!
Xiao Nuobao suddenly became anxious, and his short legs jumped up.
"Oh no, it's Sister Yiner who was bullied, go over to the big pot!"
Feng and Jiang Fengnian frowned, took two steps at a time, and hurried forward.
With them around, no one can hurt Yiner again!
