Chapter 166 Interesting
Ye Beixiu was only happy for half a minute before Wang Guilan and Ye Jishun came to find them.
The two old men first wished each other a happy new year and exchanged a few pleasantries with Liu Mingda.
Liu Mingda knew that they came for something, so he tactfully took Gancao to their room.
Wang Guilan drank two glasses of water to moisten her throat before getting down to business.
After hearing what Wang Guilan said, Zhang Juexia didn't know how to respond.
Ye Beixiu also felt strange, but he couldn't bear to refuse the old man's kindness.
Seeing that neither of them spoke, Ye Jishun asked, "Why? You don't want to follow me and your grandma to your uncle's house?"
"Grandma, no, I want to take Juexia to the temple fair in Jinlong Town."
"That's great. Since you already have a place to go, your grandfather and I don't have to worry about it anymore."
"Well, then... Grandma, how about I send you off in a carriage tomorrow, and then go to Jinlong Town with Juexia."
"I won't waste your time. Your uncle's house isn't far away. Your uncle and I will be back soon."
Ye Jishun glanced at Wang Guilan and said, "It's already dark outside, let's go home!"
Ye Beixiu found a lantern and asked them to carry it. He then sent the old couple to the village entrance before returning home.
"Grandpa, grandma, thank you!"
"What are you thanking me for? Your grandma was just thinking that everyone will go back to their parents' home tomorrow and your wife has nowhere to go, so she thought of taking you along to visit relatives."
"Anyway, I just want to thank my grandparents for having my wife in their hearts."
Ye Jishun reached out and patted Ye Beixiu, "You little brat, now that you've married, you know how to care for your wife. Not bad, you have the demeanor of your grandfather back then."
Wang Guilan felt cold all over due to the wind, and urged Ye Jishun to walk faster, and waved her hand to let Ye Beixiu go home quickly.
"This wind is blowing through people, let's get out of here!"
Ye Beixiu stood at the intersection until he could no longer see the light of the lanterns, then he turned around and went home.
Zhang Juexia was half leaning on the kang, flipping through a book boredly, unable to read a single word.
She heard Ye Beixiu open the door and hurriedly stood up to greet him, "I've sent grandpa and grandma home."
"Well, it's windy outside, my lady, you need to wear more clothes tomorrow."
"knew."
After all, it was Zhang Juexia's first time to attend a temple fair. He didn't know what was going on, so he pulled Ye Beixiu aside and asked him all kinds of questions.
Ye Beixiu laughed at her question, "My dear, I'm not a know-it-all. This is my first time going to a temple fair too."
"oh."
Ye Beixiu reached out and rubbed the hair on her forehead. "You've been tired these past few days. Let's go to bed early. We have to get up early tomorrow."
Have a good night's sleep.
Ye Beixiu got up early, made breakfast, and prepared the carriage.
Just wait for Zhang Juexia to wake up, eat and drink enough, and then set off.
Liu Mingda told them that if time was tight, they could just stay in town and not rush.
Song Yu also agreed that she would help them look after the house.
Since everyone is so supportive, Zhang Juexia and Ye Beixiu are determined to have a good time outside.
There were quite a few people visiting relatives on the street.
Zhang Juexia also heard some people envy her because she had a carriage.
Of course, there are also people who blame their husbands for being incompetent, not being able to earn much money, and having to walk back to their parents' home.
Hearing this, Zhang Juexia just smiled.
After arriving at Jinshui Town, head south and you will reach Jinlong Town in half an hour.
Just as Ye Beixiu said, there were quite a few people in the town, all of whom came to attend the temple fair.
The temple fair is very lively, with people selling things, selling food, and there are also some acrobatic performances.
Zhang Juexia came forward, looked at it for a while, and gave the man ten cents.
Seeing that she had had enough fun, Ye Beixiu pointed to the temple in front and said, "This is the Qifu Temple. I heard it's quite accurate. Why don't we go in and worship."
After hearing what Ye Beixiu said, Zhang Juexia kowtowed several times sincerely, thinking that if you believe it, it exists, and if you don't believe it, it doesn't exist.
The two men donated another five taels of silver for incense money before leaving the Qifu Temple.
Passing by a wonton stall, Zhang Juexia felt a little hungry, so he had a bowl of wontons with Ye Beixiu.
Ye Beixiu also bought two meat patties from another food stall. Zhang Juexia only took one bite and thought the taste was just average, so he didn't eat any more.
Ye Beixiu knew that she was picky about food, so he ate the meat pie she had bitten.
An old lady at the table next to them kept staring at the couple, then she turned to the old man next to her and yelled, "Look at how loving that young couple is, and then look at you, how do you treat me?"
The old man raised his beard and said, "What have I done to you? If I had treated you badly, I wouldn't have come all the way with you to eat this."
"What's wrong with this thing? If you don't like it, you don't have to eat it."
Zhang Juexia burst out laughing.
"Auntie, I actually love you. Just as he said, I really don't like to eat, but I still have the patience to eat with you."
Ye Beixiu pushed her, meaning to ask her to talk less.
Zhang Juexia didn't care and continued to look at the old man and woman beside him.
The old lady stood up after hearing her words and said, "You are an interesting young lady."
After saying that, she took her bowl and sat at Zhang Juexia's table.
"Old man, bring your bowl over here too. Stop holding it there. Look how energetic the young people are. We should talk to them more so that we can become younger, right?"
"I don't know what I am like. It's useless to do these things every day."
The old man grumbled a little, but still obediently took the bowl and sat next to Ye Beixiu.
"Young lady, are you here to play with your husband?"
"Um."
"Will you accompany me, an old woman, for a walk?"
"sure!"
Ye Beixiu couldn't help it and poked Zhang Juexia again.
The old lady saw their little movements and raised the corner of her mouth. "You are an interesting young man. Your uncle and I are already this old. Are you afraid that I will kidnap your wife?"
Ye Beixiu was so shocked that he didn't know what to say.
"Auntie, my husband is just worried about me, just like my uncle is worried about you."
"I'm not worried about her. I'd rather someone kidnapped her!"
"You...are you hoping that I will stay away from you as soon as possible? Are you planning to take a concubine?"
"It's totally unreasonable."
The old man didn't even eat his meal. He put down his bowl and left in a huff.
The old lady was left alone wiping away tears.
Zhang Juexia persuaded her for a long time, and then he and Ye Beixiu accompanied the old lady to walk around the temple fair.
The old lady wanted to buy everything she saw, and Zhang Juexia helped her bargain.
The old and the young had a great time.
The old lady even pushed Zhang Juexia and said, "You are so crazy, your husband doesn't care about you?"
"He doesn't care. He obeys me in everything."
"He's really a good young man, much better than my wife."
"Auntie, where did Grandpa go? Why don't you go look for him?"
"If you don't go, I'll just play with you."
