Chapter 247
The fact that Xixi was almost arrested was kept a secret from the outside world, so as not to spread the news and affect her reputation.The town is not big, and if something unusual happens, it will cause suspicion in the eyes of others, and even some invisible things can be made up, not to mention that Zhuhua's group is conspicuous, and there is a person who can't stay. When people suddenly don't go out, others can't help but think too much.Fearing that outsiders would guess more and more outrageously, and then spread the word to interested people, when the matter was almost over, the group left the local area and went to Taihu Lake.

It is near the Mid-Autumn Festival, and it is the time when the crabs in Taihu Lake are fat.Among these people, the younger ones don't like crabs very much and find it troublesome to eat crabs, only Zhuhua likes to eat them.Fortunately, there are other delicacies in the local area, and the scenery is beautiful, so they have no complaints.On the day of the Mid-Autumn Festival, King Ping chartered a boat to enjoy the moon while eating crabs on the river, which was also unique.

This boat is specially prepared for the diners by the restaurant on the riverside, and there are children on it who specially prepare crab meat for the guests.In the past, in the mansion, even if there were servants around, the adults would not allow them to be lazy, and only outside was left unattended.Now that they were out of trouble, they all had a good meal.However, King Ping didn't let them serve Zhuhua. The crab meat that Zhuhua ate was peeled by King Ping for her.The children looked at it from the sidelines, and the elders exchanged glances with each other.Who would like to see their elders show affection in front of them?
Autumn passed and winter came, and when the vegetation turned yellow, Huanhuan and the others returned to Beijing first, and asked them to take the exam for the Imperial College at the end of the year.Xixi didn't want to go back at first, but Zhuhua forced Zhuhua to send her back.They also knew that it was cold and there was nothing to do outside, but when they thought of going back to the capital, they were still reluctant.

"If you don't go back to Chang'an obediently, I will send you to Liangzhou. Your mother is holding you with a stick."

Once Zhuhua said this, they had no choice but to go back obediently.In fact, not to mention that they didn't want to go back, even she didn't want to go back to Chang'an.As soon as they left, Zhuhua rented a big house in an ordinary town and lived in it. Even if she could only stay at home every day, she felt more comfortable outside than in Chang'an.King Ping knew what she was thinking, and he didn't mention Chang'an's words.

In mid-winter, it snowed several times in a row. One day, when King Ping was reading a book in the house with Zhuhuawo, he said, "It snows so heavily, the road to Chang'an is probably blocked."

Zhuhua looked up at him, couldn't help but chuckled, pretended to sigh regretfully: "Then there's nothing we can do, we can't go back, I hope the elders won't blame me."

"How could it be? It's all because of the heavy snow."

In this way, they have been living in this small town until the snow melts after a year.

Even in a small town, it is bustling during the Chinese New Year. Although the people living nearby don't know what the newly moved Master Cheng does, they still invite their children to visit the New Year together on the first day of the new year.It was only then that Zhuhua remembered this custom. Fortunately, the more sweets and snacks there were at home, the more she grabbed a handful for each of the children.When the children saw that it was better than what they had in previous years, they were also very happy.Zhuhua took the opportunity to ask Yuanyuan and Jiajia to play with them. Yuanyuan was a little reluctant at first, but then she thought that she could get nothing for nothing, so she went.The family would not dare to go alone, only with the second sister following him.

In fact, the two of them were considered older among the group of children, especially Yuanyuan, but the grown-ups in the neighbor's house were ashamed to give less when they saw that the little girl looked like she had walked out of a New Year painting.Thanks to Yuanyuan's blessing, everyone got a lot of candies.After the family got the things and went back, they let Zhuhua taste it first, and got Zhuhua a compliment.He was having fun when a child outside asked him to go out and play.

Every family looked at Zhuhua, wondering whether to go or not.

"Go play and see what the people here are playing."

Jiajia nodded, and went out with the little boys she had just met, and didn't come back until lunch time.Only then did Zhuhua know that these children had trampled over the ice that had formed in the waterlogged places in the nearby alleys all morning, and stoned the ones that couldn't be broken.Zhuhua didn't know what was so fun about it, but Jiajia was very happy, and she danced and told her that someone fell down while stepping on the ice, and that the ice didn't freeze somewhere for some reason, and someone stepped on it and stepped on it. A foot of water, and immediately cried, saying that the new shoes were soiled and they would be beaten when they returned home.

"Later someone said it was only the first day of junior high school, so he didn't cry because his mother can't do it." Jiajia finished with a smile, and then added proudly, "Even if our family wasn't in the first year of junior high school, my mother wouldn't hit me either. .”

"That's because you are good, so Mother doesn't beat you. Like your eldest cousin and your uncle, Mother beat you when they were young, and they beat you very hard." Zhuhua said with a serious face on purpose.

"Who made them misbehaved." Jiajia has no sympathy for the beaten person at all, anyway, his mother can't do anything wrong.

Xu knew that the adults at home would not beat and scold them these days. The children in the neighborhood were playing crazy, and Jiajia often went to play with them, but he knew in his heart that some dangerous places were not allowed to go, so they He was dragged to play dangerous games in which he took part in none.They didn't force him, and they still like to play with him, who always kept delicious candy in his pocket, and often generously distributed it to them.

The days of crazy play for children are over after the fifth day.On the sixth day of the sixth day, Jiajia was still waiting for his little friends to come to him to play, when he heard a child crying nearby, he pricked up his ears to listen for a while, and immediately went into the house to look for Zhuhua.

"Mom, someone is beating a child."

"That's because they are not good, you dare to step on the ice on the river, that's too brave." Zhuhua has been secretly following him, she knows what the children are playing.

Jiajia nodded when he seemed to understand, and immediately said, "I didn't step on it."

"Okay, Jiajia is really a good boy." Zhuhua immediately boasted.

After a while, the little boy with tears on his face came to play with Jiajia. After Jiajia walked to the door and said a few words to him, he went to Qinglan and secretly asked for medicine for the wound.This bottle of medicine was quickly shared among several friends and used up.

In fact, when the adults saw several children pulling one of them to step on the ice on the river, the adults felt angry.How dangerous it is, if one is not careful, this string of children will fall into the river in winter.The adults stopped them immediately, and said a few words to the children after returning home, but they didn't scold them as harshly as before. They also wondered if their children could be improved after a few words. There was no subsequent beating.Unfortunately, the answer is no.Moreover, these children were not afraid of being beaten, so they went out to play crazy after admitting their mistakes.

After a first month, Jiajia and many children around him are getting to know each other well, but unfortunately they will leave as soon as the weather gets warmer.When he left, he was quite reluctant to part with them, so he gave them some small toys he bought from Jiangnan.

Leaving the remote town, this time they went directly to Liangzhou as soon as they left.Huanlele knew that they were going to Liangzhou this year, and at the end of last year, they couldn't work hard enough to make up lessons. As a result, they only ranked in the middle of the promotion test, so they couldn't follow them to Liangzhou.They couldn't go, and neither could Xixi, and Sun also wrote a letter to Zhuhua, saying that she would keep Xixi to see her in Chang'an, and didn't want her to run around again.Zhuhua also understands Sun's concerns. In fact, last time Xixi almost had an accident, she regretted it even thinking about it, and she didn't want to bring these trouble-loving children with her again.

The road to Liangzhou is different from when they went to the south of the Yangtze River. At that time, the color of spring became more and more intense as they walked. Now if they go more and more desolate, it seems that they have returned to winter after walking.They also encountered snow several times on the road, but fortunately the snow was not there, and they could continue on the road after waiting for a few days.The spring snow melts faster than the winter snow, and it is also milder than the winter snow. It looks like white flowers sprinkled on the trees that are showing green buds.

Zhuhua quite likes spring snow, and even thinks that rainy days in the north are better than sunny days.On a sunny day, as long as the wind blows, the dust on the road will blow in the face, even if you are sitting in a carriage, you will feel that you have accumulated dust on your body.

Jiajia also lost a tooth on the road, and he didn't panic. He remembered that he had seen his second sister's missing several teeth, and now they all grew out.But when the tooth fell out, he bled a little, so he took the opportunity to lie in Zhuhua's arms for a while.

"Acting like a baby again." Yuanyuan seldom pretended to be an adult, and helplessly shook her head beside her.

Seeing this, Zhuhua smiled secretly, and said, "You didn't cry when you lost your tooth, but then you wanted to pull it out as soon as it moved, for fear that you would swallow it when you fell asleep at night."

As she spoke, she looked at Tuan Tuan again, who turned her head guiltily and pretended to be reading seriously.At the beginning, when Tuantuan lost her teeth, she cried a lot. It was rare for Zhuhua to see her eldest daughter cry like this, so she purposely coaxed her with unimportant words to see how long she could cry.King Ping felt sorry for his daughter, and immediately told her about the teeth growing again. Zhuhua still remembers how Tuantuan stopped her tears and blushed for a moment.Tuantuan herself also remembered that since she was a child, she was so embarrassing not many times, and she couldn't forget it even if she wanted to.

Stopping and stopping, it was mid-April, and the group finally reached Liangzhou.I have to say that the city of Liangzhou is more lively and prosperous than the towns they saw along the way. There are many foreigners in it. They use Mandarin with strange intonations to bargain with the local merchants. Some people are more ruthless than her in killing the price.

After entering the city, they passed a lively street, where there were all kinds of goods for sale, and some people were clearing the goods, putting the leftovers in piles, with the price written on the pile not refundable Change.Zhuhua has no resistance to this kind of thing, and Yuanyuan can't move her feet in front of her, which is really too cheap.When she was in Jiangnan, she didn't buy anything, and felt that the things there were not novel enough, only some bamboo wares were interesting, but the bamboo wares were very bulky, and it was inconvenient for her to buy them, unlike the small things she saw in front of the stalls now.

"Maybe Eldest Sister is waiting for us." King Ping reminded, Zhuhua was right when she thought about it, maybe it would be better to ask someone from the governor's mansion to help negotiate the price later, so she didn't look back. left.
