Chapter 40: Wander around


After sending Ning Junwu and Feng Shiqian away, Xia Bashan left Xia Xiaodong to talk.

"You had a problem with Mr.

Ning."

Xia Bashan could certainly tell that Mr.

Ning's attitude was not quite right.

"I didn't start the trouble."

Xia Xiaodong first stated his position: "It's just that Mr.

Ning seems to have some strange hostility towards me and always says some unpleasant things.

Well, last time I got angry and beat him twice."

Fight even if you fight, don’t be afraid to admit it.

But there’s no need to elaborate too much on what it looks like.

Xia Bashan didn't think there was anything wrong with his daughter giving someone a hard time.

It must have been the boy who said something rude.

"Mr.

Ning's mother passed away when he was very young."

Xia Bashan looked a little solemn: "It is rumored that he was plotted by concubine Ji.

Later, his father beat one of his cousins ​​to death and drove him away.

He has two concubines and has never married again.

Mr.

Ning lives with his unmarried aunt, so you should not take it to heart."

No wonder this guy has such a strange temperament, he grew up in the house fighting circle.

Xia Xiaodong felt better.

Xia Bashan was a little worried.

Just now, Xia Xiaodong had been talking to Feng Shiqian and didn't pay attention here.

Although Ning Junwu and Xia Bashan had discussed many deployment and control matters, they seemed to have inadvertently asked a few questions about Xia Xiaodong.

As a man who had been young, Xia Bashan certainly knew that although the intention of showing goodwill wholeheartedly was obvious, the frequent and inexplicable targeting was another kind of attention.

If you really don't value someone, you will completely forget about them and never mention them at all.

Xia Bashan looked at his daughter's bright face with a complicated expression, feeling a little sad.

The noble young master in the capital is really not a good match.

"By the way, does our family have any food?"

Xia Xiaodong thought of the flood of victims who were about to arrive, and began to worry about his family's situation.

"Of course."

Xia Bashan waved his hand and said with a smile: "Our family has a small population and we don't need much food.

There is always enough food in the cellar for everyone to eat for a year, and we also bring in old rice every year.

Go out and replace it with a new one.

Don’t worry about that.”

As expected, he is a military commander with many years of experience, and his awareness of combat readiness is not ordinary.

Xia Xiaodong felt relieved.

Since he didn't have to worry about people being a little selfish, he could then think about how to make good use of the money he had and help his father solve the problem of the victims.

However, problems that can be solved with money are usually not problems.

The problem is that even if you have money, you may not be able to buy food for disaster relief.

"Master, Mr.

Feng's servant is here to deliver the post."

A soldier reported at the door.

Didn’t Mr.

Feng just leave?

Why is the boy here again?

The boy's attitude was very respectful: "Originally, my young master wanted to send the post over by himself just now, but he forgot about it.

So I sent the young one over again."

Xia Bashan took the post and looked at it casually, then handed it to Xia Xiaodong.

The post was written very politely, and the general idea was that Miss Lu Yunzhi of the Lu family had just arrived in Suzhou and was not familiar with the place.

Tomorrow is the day of rest for my girlfriends.

I hope to invite sisters Xia Xiaodong and Xia Yurong to go shopping together in Suzhou and learn about the local people's livelihood.

Anyone with a discerning eye would know at a glance that the post was nominally from Lu Yunzhi, but since it was sent by Feng Shiqian's servant, it was obviously Feng Shiqian's intention, and Feng Shiqian would certainly accompany him.

The folk customs of the Northern Chu Dynasty were quite open.

The military attachés in Suzhou, Xuannan were the main ones, and there were no restrictions on etiquette from many civil servants.

Such a post was considered to be quite satisfactory, and it was a normal etiquette for young men and women to interact with each other.

Xia Xiaodong secretly laughed.

Feng Shiqian clearly didn't forget, but deliberately sent it late, probably because he didn't want to bring Ning Junwu with him.

Otherwise, if you show the post in front of Ning Junwu, you must give him a polite invitation.

After dinner, Mrs.

Zhuang smiled and asked someone to bring out two sets of clothes and gave them to the two sisters.

"Since I'm going out for a walk tomorrow, wearing this looks energetic and makes it easier to move around."

Mrs.

Zhuang said.

The clothes match well.

Inside is a moon-white Hufu with tight cuffs and feet.

The small stand-up collar covers the neck and looks quite straight.

On the outside is a royal blue straight robe with a palm-wide leather belt around the waist.

These are men's clothes.

Xia Xiaodong dressed up early in the morning, took a look in the mirror, and looked like a handsome young man.

Who knows that there are no underwear such as bras in this era?

They all rely on real materials but no materials.

It’s strange to see the rise and fall of a tube top and loose clothes.

It will get better when you grow up, Xia Xiaodong silently comforted himself.

Now I understand why the characters in those ancient paintings of maids with slender shoulders and flat chests are all natural.

Yu Rong's appearance is almost the same as Xia Xiaodong's, except that the color of her clothes is different, it is lake green.

When Feng Shiqian saw the two sisters, he had a strange look in his eyes, but he could still maintain his grace.

He exchanged pleasantries with Xia Bashan and took his daughter out.

He always had to show his attitude and ensure safety.

For the convenience of traveling, Feng Shiqian found a quite large carriage from somewhere.

There were two rows of seats facing each other and it could seat at least six people.

After picking up the Xia sisters, the carriage went to the prefect's mansion to pick up Lu Yunzhi.

Zhang Wenjuan also came together, but together with Lu Yunzhi, she seemed to be extremely low-key, often lowering her head slightly and not saying much.

Seeing the Xia sisters, Lu Yunzhi actually showed a strange expression, which was exactly the same as Feng Shiqian's expression.

Zhang Wenjuan curled her lips and smiled secretly.

What was wrong?

Xia Xiaodong looked at Yu Rong, but couldn't find the answer from Yu Rong.

It's basically a fashion for girls to wear men's clothes when they go out.

It's nothing.

How weird are these two people?

After all, Yurong was younger and had not yet developed the habit of observing words and expressions, so she didn't pay attention at all.

Among the few people, she was the most familiar with Suzhou, and she introduced her dutifully along the way.

“If you want to buy clothes, jewelry, rouge, and gouache, the Zongding River area has the most.”

“All the woodware shops are on Qianyang Street” "The south is full of wealthy people, and the further north you go, the poorer you get.

The area at the base of the northern city wall is full of thatched sheds."

"Most of the military households are outside the city.

Some of them are exempted from military households.

If they can't afford land, they will come to the city to work as part-time workers.

Most of them gather at Chaoyang Gate."

Yu Rong is quite familiar with Suzhou City.

As the carriage drove along, the situation in each place was described.

"There are shops selling mountain products and game here.

There are many mountains here in Suzhou, and mushrooms, fungus, wild vegetables, pine nuts, etc. are all cheap.

Rabbits are often found, and wild boars can also be seen."

When it comes to food, Yu Rong is even more excited.

It’s a familiar treasure: “The best restaurant here is Yiguo Dangguan’s game stew pot, which is simply amazing.”

"Eh?"

Yurong's face suddenly became stiff: "Why is Yi Guo Dang Guan closed?"
