Chapter 219 Idiot Chen Hong
Chapter 219 Idiot Chen Hong
Su Jin was very sensitive to these things. She subconsciously turned her head to look and met the talking gazes of the people around her. Some people turned their heads away and pretended nothing had happened. Of course, there were a few brave ones who smiled at her in a very obscene way.
Su Jin frowned slightly.
These people clearly have bad intentions, why?
I don't remember provoking them at all. Could it be that my original self provoked them?
Is it possible? The soul never leaves the house, how could it be possible to know such a gangster?
Su Jin turned around and continued walking inside, his good mood for visiting the temple fair was greatly reduced.
Fortunately, he met Chen Hong on the road, which made Su Jin's unhappy mood a little better.
"Aunt!"
When Chen Hong saw Su Jin, his eyes immediately lit up and he rushed over. The servants behind him could only quickly follow him.
Chen Hong is the eldest son of Chen Huailiang. However, Chen Huailiang had been banished from the capital long ago. How come Chen Hong is still in the capital?
"You didn't go with your father?"
Su Jin was a little curious. Moreover, Chen Huailiang was demoted because he protected Gu Ziyun. For this reason, Chen Huailiang always felt that it was the Yong'an Marquisate that harmed him. His daughter Chen Xinlian's marriage was even more ruined. The good young girl instantly became a widow... Oh, not quite a widow, she instantly became a relative of her husband's criminal who was exiled. If Chen Huailiang hadn't insisted on divorce, Chen Xinlian's life would have been over.
Chen Huailiang's family was implicated because of the Marquis' Mansion. Could it be that Chen Hong also hates the Marquis' Mansion?
Su Jin carefully looked at Chen Hong's expression.
However, Chen Hong, this idiot, is worthy of being the son that his mother, Mrs. Xu, is most troubled by. He didn't feel anything at all, and even spread his hands innocently and said, "My father deserved to be demoted. He is getting older and older, and he has been an official for so many years, but he doesn't know what it means to be cautious and make the best use of your time."
Su Jin: ...
Kid, you are really great!
"But I'm different. My father needs to work in another place, but I don't. I'm a man and I don't need to be inseparable from my parents like Xinlian. So, I want to stay in the capital. I haven't shown my aunt the bicycle I promised her yet!"
“…”
Ah, this is a bicycle.
Now that the atmosphere has come to this, shouldn't she also ask a question?
"Is your bicycle ready?"
Chen Hong's eyes lit up. "It's almost done. After I went back, I thought about it and decided to read more books, especially books like Tiangong Kaiwu and Lu Ban's Complete Works. Then I found a few methods. I'm experimenting now. It won't be long before I can show them to Auntie!"
Su Jin is so happy that he can even make a bicycle. Kid, you are so awesome!
"but……"
Chen Hong turned his head and looked at the people around him who were looking at him with ill intentions, frowned and said, "If auntie is free today, can I accompany her to visit the temple fair?"
After all, he brought servants with him, some of whom were quite skilled in martial arts. They were left for him by Chen Huailiang before he left Beijing.
Su Jin knew Chen Hong had good intentions, and she had no reason to refuse, so she nodded: "Okay, let's go together."
In the eyes of Chen Huailiang and Xu, Chen Hong is an incompetent and rebellious son, but in Su Jin's eyes, this child is cheerful, outgoing and very humorous.
"Aunt, I'm testing a three-wheeled car and a two-wheeled car. The difference is that the three-wheeled one is stable, while the two-wheeled one will fall..."
Su Jin: ...
The corners of my mouth couldn't help but twitch. Kid, do you really need to experiment with this? The one with three wheels can stand even without you having to move it. The one with two wheels can be let go! !
"But both bicycles have a common flaw, which is that they are still not as fast as horses. But I have a new discovery that can solve this problem!"
Chen Hong vowed, which made Su Jin look delighted: "Oh, what did you find?"
"I discovered that the fireworks set off on New Year's Eve could soar into the sky in one go. In order to improve the problem that bicycles cannot outrun horses, I decided to install firecrackers on bicycle wheels..."
Su Jin was panicked.
Subconsciously, I wanted to cover Chen Hong's mouth.
Su Jin asked with difficulty: "Brother Hong, are you still alive?"
"Oh, it's long gone. I haven't even seen it. What's wrong, aunt?"
Su Jin: “…”
What's the matter, kid? Do you want to see your grandma so much?
She thought about it and decided to put it more tactfully: "Hey, what is your bicycle made of?"
"Wood is cheap, plentiful, and easy to modify."
"Oh, this, could it be that a firecracker set off something..."
Chen Hong was stunned for a moment, then he smashed his right fist into the palm of his left hand, and suddenly said, "Yes, wood is flammable. Thank you, auntie. If it weren't for you, something would have really happened!"
Su Jin smiled and shook her head: "It's okay..."
Chen Hong lowered his head and thought: "Then I'll change to iron next time, so I won't have to worry about burning it."
Su Jin: ...
It won’t catch fire, otherwise it will become a lethal weapon. Kid, have you ever heard of a cannonball?
The corner of Su Jin's mouth twitched, and he thought to himself, this kid didn't succeed in inventing a bicycle, so why not invent the cannon first?
Then the history books left for future generations could write like this: The Young Master Chen accidentally invented the cannonball while inventing the bicycle.
Bicycle?? Cannonball??
No matter how people think about it, they can't figure out how bicycles are related to cannonballs, right?
Su Jin lowered her head and pinched her eyebrows. She felt a little tired, really.
"Brother Hong, let's sit down and take a break."
Su Jin smiled, and Chen Hong nodded sensibly: "Then let's go to the teahouse in front, that's our family's, let's go!"
Su Jin: ...
Great, save money again, hahaha!
Su Jin followed Chen Hong with a smile on her face, and bought some candied haws, soup dumplings, donkey meat hotpot, and dragon beard cakes on the way...
In short, if there is any food on the roadside that looks suitable, she would like to try it.
When we entered the teahouse, we found that it was already full. Even if the boss came, the manager couldn't do anything.
Today is the temple fair, so there are already many people. The teahouse is located right in the center of the temple fair, so there are too many people coming in to rest and there is no room left.
"Or, I'll add a table and chairs under the tarpaulin outside for you, brother?"
There was a shed outside the restaurant, and the poor people stood outside and drank a large bowl of tea for one penny. The tea was made from broken tea leaves and was cheap and plentiful.
Chen Hong had made such a boast, but when he showed up there was no seat available. As the young master, he felt a little embarrassed. After hearing what the shopkeeper said, he immediately nodded in agreement.
The shopkeeper quickly asked the waiter to take out the tables and chairs from the warehouse, and Su Jin finally had a place to stay.
As soon as she sat down, Chen Hong came in to order food and drinks. While Su Jin turned her head to flip the candied haws, another person sat down next to her.
"elder sister!"
Lin Wanhui's voice was full of joy.
"Finally I see my sister again. I missed you so much!"
Su Jin: ...
Why doesn't she believe it?
