Chapter 44 Temple Fair
Grandpa also felt the sincere and seamless family love. I said, "Grandpa, my wine is waiting for me at the stall next to the temple fair! Do you want to buy some wine? I also want to eat 뀙锅, this time I want spicy food."
Su Nuoli also livened up the atmosphere and said, "Grandpa, we can only eat the hot pot tomorrow night. We have to stay there tonight. But this time, father and brother have a lot of money in their pockets, about 10,000 taels. I also want to go to the street at the temple fair to buy jewelry and beautiful clothes, and father and brother have to pay for it."
"Hey, what's the 10,000 liang? What's the temple fair? Are you having any activities? Can you take me with you?"
When they saw grandma coming in from outside, the first and second brothers smiled and said, "Yes, let's go quickly!"
Then Brother Xiao suddenly turned around and said, "Although something unhappy happened today, I have never felt so relaxed. Maybe the burden on my heart has finally been lifted. I decided to let everyone go. Each of you will go to the housekeeper to get two taels of silver. You can eat whatever you want at the temple fair today, and you can also buy yourself some toys to have fun!"
Su Nuoli thought that this was a good idea. The temple fair would last for two days, and he could stay in the provincial capital tonight. Not only would he have an alibi to get his money back tonight, but he could also have some fun and relax.
As for the supplies in the space, I'll use them more when I flee the famine. But today I must find a chance to take out some watermelons and mangoes. I'm really greedy for them, and I'm too embarrassed to eat them secretly all the time. I also want to give it to my family to try, now that the trouble has gone.
The carriage took another hour to drive! Sure enough, the provincial capital is very lively today! The temple fair is held five days before the Chinese New Year, which can be regarded as a way for families to warm up for the New Year.
On both sides of the street are teahouses, taverns, pawnshops, workshops... There are small vendors selling things in the open spaces on both sides. As expected, with the arrival of the temple fair, there were many more small vendors on the streets, and some set up stalls starting from the city gate.
There were people walking constantly on the street, some were carrying loads on their shoulders, some were stopping to buy things, and there were men and women riding in sedan chairs... The street was very lively! It’s really worth it!
"Sister, I'll listen to you. It's not easy to go shopping in a sedan or a carriage. We can see a lot on foot. Look at this. This hairpin is really beautiful. Although the jade inlaid is deep red, it doesn't look enchanting."
"Hey, Nuoan has good taste. However, although it is beautiful, it is not suitable for Nuoli. The color is too bright for her. Your sister likes the plain and quiet ones. The sky blue one that Nuoyan holds is good."
"Grandma Shi has a really good taste. Let me try it out, my sister. What my brother picked is really beautiful."
"Well, try it on me. But you are wrong about one thing. Second brother's hairpin was not chosen for me. It seems to be the one that Sister Tangtang likes."
After his thoughts were exposed, the second brother refused to admit it and said, "I was just looking around and bought this by the way."
"Oh, I don't care about you, sister. This hairpin makes a sound with every step, and the pearls and bells it is decorated with are also very delicate. Show your family how good my taste is."
At that time, grandma and grandpa Mo were amused by Brother Xiao's funny appearance, and they kept praising Brother Xiao. It was the first time for Su Nuoli to see Brother Xiao so unstable. Maybe his soul was free and he became more lively, so let him be happier!
"Brother 꺶, I like this. It just so happens that I don't have any hairpins or hairpins on my head today. Then I'll just wear it. Brother 꺶 will pay for it!"
"Okay! How much is this?"
"The girl looks very pretty in it. Although this hairpin is small, it is exquisite. One piece costs 120 wen."
