Ugly peasant girl in space

Chapter 678 Bridge Festival (2)
Qingli felt that her own words were still very artistic, so if she shut up for now, Mai Dong would probably use drugs to stun him or knock him out, she didn't dare to say "shut him up", for fear that Mai Dong would end up killing that person .

Because someone was disturbing the people, neither the uncle nor the cousin Mo Qingju slept well in the morning. On the contrary, the uncle was in good spirits. He had three big white flour steamed buns for breakfast, and he said it was delicious, "The steamed buns in this inn are delicious." Soft and soft, I can eat two even if there is no food."

"Father, you didn't hear anything last night?"

Cousin Mo Qingju rubbed her eyes and yawned. She chose cold water when she washed in the morning. She was still a little sleepy. After getting into the carriage to sleep, she looked around and asked in a low voice.

"Your father sleeps soundly, and his snoring is so loud."

The uncle glared at her cousin, a heartless girl, she pretended not to hear that kind of obscene words and songs, and even asked questions, she was really too straightforward.

The family didn't mention this. The uncle was simple-minded and slept soundly last night. He didn't know what happened. After eating steamed buns and drinking a bowl of porridge, he asked belatedly, "Boss, eldest daughter-in-law, look I don't have much energy."

"Father, it's Sui Sui, who came here crying in the middle of the night."

The lobby sister-in-law Fu Caiyun smiled awkwardly, and gave the lobby brother Mo Zidong a look, afraid that if he told the truth, he would pretend that he didn't hear such a thing, and had to cover it up for the other party, really aggrieved.

After everyone had breakfast, the sky began to rain lightly. It rained for a quarter of an hour, and the ground was still wet. When everyone checked out, Xiao Luzi came to see them off again. He didn't know the journey of everyone. So the next city did not help to book an inn.

"Zixi, get on Fourth Sister's carriage."

Qingli's own carriage is the largest, and it won't look crowded if there are more people. In the morning, seeing Mo Chongyuan's baby drowsy, she wanted to ask her younger brother to come and chat with her.

"Okay, Fourth Sister."

Mo Zixi flashed big eyes like black grapes, nodded obediently, and got into Qingli's carriage. Mammy Yu was sent by Qingli to take care of her cousin Mo Qingju. There were still four people in the carriage, she, Mai Ya, Mai Dong Happy with my little disciple.

The carriage was driving in the light rain, the weather was just right, without the humidity of the heavy rain, when the window was opened, there was a moist earthy smell in the air, neither cold nor hot, and the malt leaned against the carriage whistling all night last night In a deep sleep, Mai Dong silently covered her with a silk quilt, then peeled off the skin of the melon with a fruit knife, cut it into small pieces and placed them on a porcelain plate with bamboo sticks.

"Fourth sister, not long after you left, my parents and I were no longer in the village. Later, we moved to Fengyang to live for two years. This time you go home, let's go to the old house in Mojia Village."

Xiao Zixi is no longer the white and tender little bun. He is already over seven years old. He usually wears a green shirt and walks a few steps with his hands behind his back, just like a little scholar. When his father Mo Ruhu was leaving, he told her to send the younger brother to the school to study After two years of passing the Tongsheng exam, you can go to Qishan Academy, the largest in Fengyang, to study. My eldest brother Mo Zigui and Li Moxuan came out of Qishan Academy.

"Going to the old house, it's not convenient for you to go to the school. Although there is a school in our village, you have been in Fengyang with your parents before."

Qingli raised her head and looked at her younger brother. This kid had no playmates before, and he pestered her all day long. Later, the family had a helper, Grandma Cui, and brought her grandson Dongwa. run wild.

"Fourth sister, my mother used to say that I was young and wouldn't let me go to the river. Later, my third brother and I learned to swim. We agreed, you take me fishing, and we have to go to the mountains to play, catch pheasants and hares , picking wild fruits, the red fruit cake you made before was delicious."

The boy looked at Qingli with bright eyes, which made her heart soften like a puddle of water. This was what she promised when she fooled her little brother back then. The purpose was to let him catch bugs in the vegetable field and feed them to the chickens. It’s good to take advantage of this time to go inside the space.

"Okay, you can tell Fourth Sister what you want to eat, pheasant, hare, and wild pork are fine, your Fourth Sister is amazing."

Qingli patted the head of little disciple Xi. In the past, this little baby had only a braid on her head, which looked like a doll in New Year pictures. Now she has grown her hair. She is still as dependent on her as before, the feeling of being trusted by someone, very nice.

The carriage stopped slowly, Mai Dong opened the window of the carriage, looked out, and then reported, "Miss, we are going to cross the river on the bridge, but someone in front stopped us, saying that there is a bridge festival going on." , this is the rule of Ruyang City."

"Mai Dong, do you know this custom? How long will it take? We have to rush to the next city before the city gate is closed."

Qingli frowned, the uncle seemed to be in a hurry to hurry, Qingli herself had something to do, so she took a break from traveling around the mountains and rivers, and now she went according to the plan every day, and today was going to be delayed, I'm afraid it would take a day.

"Miss, the Bridge Festival is held several times a year here in Kyoto. This is the largest river in Ruyang. We don't need to take the bridge, but we have to take the waterway. We need to take a detour here, and there are large ships downstream. Can carry a cart across a river."

Mai Dong is worthy of being a member of Ghost Rakshasa. He was in the palace before and had studied a lot, so he pointed out a few plans to Qing Li in an instant. It would take an hour to go downstream.

Outside, there was a lot of noise, and many people came. Each of them carried a basket with offerings and paper money in it. The coachman pulled the carriage aside. There were more than ten carriages around. They looked very luxurious, so they should be here. Many squires, landlords and merchants.

"Well……"

Hearing the noise, Mai Ya shook his head, and leaned against Mai Dong's arms, Mai Dong's face was weird, Qingli guessed that this girl was not used to physical contact with people, and Mai Ya herself felt something was wrong , rubbing his eyes, "Miss, the servant is asleep."

"Yeah, it's past noon now, we're going to another county town, you slept soundly this time, it's hard for Mai Dong."

Mai Ya, the maid, sleeps dishonestly, likes to crowd people, and always shifts her position, and finally squeezes Mai Dong to the side of the car window, close to the car wall, thanks to Mai Ya waking up, otherwise she would keep bullying her.

"It's not good for slaves."

Mai Ya badly touched his head with interest, and felt the mess around him, so he lay down on the window of the car and looked around, "Why don't you leave?"

"Bridge Festival, don't let passersby."

Qingli sighed. She used to be very interested in some folk customs. Since she came back from crying for the queen mother on the fifth day of May last time and picked up the little baby Mo Zitian, she felt that some folk customs were really feudal superstitions. Why are people born on the fifth day of May There is no scientific basis for Xiaowake's parents.
