Fourth Master's childhood sweetheart

Chapter 192 Roasted Chestnuts and Roasted Sweet Potatoes

"Don't miss it when you pass by—"

"Selling biscuits—selling biscuits—"

The market on the New Year's Day is full of people coming and going.The streets are also very lively, with the shouts of traffickers and pawns everywhere.

After Tong Jia Xili got off the carriage and looked at the long street, it was the first time in ancient times that she realized what it meant to be a sea of ​​people.

People follow the crowd, and sure enough, the back of the head is full of people at a glance...

"There are so many people." Shun Anyan looked at the crowd coming and going, feeling a little worried all of a sudden, and said, "Sister, how about..."

Before Ruzi finished speaking, Yinzhen walked out of the sedan chair.

"Cousin, you've worked hard." Yinzhen cupped his hands towards Shun Anyan, and said, "It's getting late, cousin, let's go back quickly."

Shun Anyan was about to answer, but when she turned her head, she saw Tong Jiaxi Li looking at Yinzhen with a smile in her eyes.Shun Anyan's heart suddenly realized something.

His sister, now there is another person who can protect her.

As an older brother, shouldn't he also rest assured to hand over his younger sister to the fourth elder brother?

"Okay." In the end, Shun Anyan nodded and agreed, and went back to the mansion alone in a chariot and horse.

"Now, let me be your brother, okay?" Yinzhen smiled evilly, and immediately took Tong Jia Xili's hand.

Tong Jia Xili subconsciously wanted to withdraw her hand, but Yinzhen held it tightly and refused to let go.In this way, Tong Jia Xili had no choice but to give up resistance.

"How can you be such a big brother?" Tong Jiaxi puffed up, although she didn't struggle, she still moved her fingers.

Yinzhen's strength inevitably increased by three points, Tong Jia Xili couldn't struggle anymore, so he stopped exerting himself and muttered: "My brother doesn't pull me like you do."

Yinzhen heard these words clearly.

But Yinzhen didn't care about it, he just said: "The left and right are not real brothers and sisters, but elder brother and younger sister?"

Brother and sister seem to be called between couples in Yunnan.It's rare to call it that way in the capital, and you can tell it's learned from the local chronicles I read recently.

Tong Jia Xili simply pretended not to understand, looked up at the sky, rolled her eyes and said, "What about elder brother and younger sister, I don't know what you are talking about."

"If you don't know, I'll explain to you, what do elder brother and younger sister mean?"

Yinzhen was right next to Tong Jia Xili, moved a little closer, and started talking regardless of whether Tong Jia Xili really didn't understand.

"Somewhere in the South where unmarried men and women..."

Only halfway through the words, Tong Jia Xili didn't want to listen anymore, dragged Yinzhen's hand, and walked forward with one thought.Gradually, Yinzhen's voice became smaller and disappeared behind him.

"Go slowly, there are many people here, don't get lost."

Seeing Tong Jia Xili running forward, Yinzhen hurried up.As for the rest of the words that he didn't have time to finish, he believed that Tong Jia Xili knew about it.

Tong Jia Xili and Yinzhen walked together, wandering around.

Most of the things sold on the New Year's Day are Spring Festival couplets and nuts.Of course, walking along the long street, Tong Jiaxili also saw his favorite roasted sweet potatoes and fried chestnuts.

Now, she doesn't seem to have to think about which is better, roasted sweet potatoes or fried chestnuts.

Because she can eat it all.

When he came to a stall selling sugar-fried chestnuts, Tong Jia Xili stopped in his tracks.Still in a place separated by several people, Tong Jia Xili could already smell the aroma of sugar-fried chestnuts.

The aroma was the same as I remembered, and it was also the same as the taste of the sugar-fried chestnuts that Xiao Shunzi brought back that day.

"Boss, pack me three bags of fried chestnuts..."

"Okay! Girl, don't worry, I'll pretend for you right now!"

Three bags, that is, three paper bags of the kind that usually hold chestnuts.It doesn't sound like much, but it's heavy when you get it in your hand.

"Little girl, take it, be careful it's hot." The boss collected the money, and didn't forget to remind Tong Jia to Xi Li.

Tong Jia Xili handed two bags of fried chestnuts to Yinzhen, and took a bag by himself, shelling and eating chestnuts while walking.

Yinzhen followed behind, and seeing Tong Jia Xili eating like this without caring about the road, he could only smile wryly.

"Come on, cousin, I'll give you one." Tong Jia Xili carefully peeled a chestnut, and stuffed it into Yinzhen's mouth.

The sweetness permeated the whole mouth at once.

Of course, for Yinzhen, what is sweeter is not the mouth, but the heart.

A small half of the bag of fried chestnuts was eaten by Tong Jia Xili in just a moment.Of course, Yinzhen also ate a lot.

Tong Jia practiced peeling the pears for a long time, and her fingertips were a little red, so she simply didn't peel them, and kept them until she went back, and warmed up the chestnuts before eating.

"After you go back, how about I peel it for you to eat?"

Yinzhen's gentle voice suddenly rang in his ears, and Tong Jiaxili couldn't help but buried his head, refusing to look at Yinzhen.

"If it wasn't for helping you with the fried chestnuts and these few roasted sweet potatoes... I would definitely peel them and eat them for you right now."

At this moment, Yinzhen is like the kind of man who goes shopping with women.With a lot of things in his hands, there is nothing hanging around his neck.

Tong Jia Xili looked at Yinzhen's appearance, smiled and said: "But you blame me for letting you take so many things? Why don't you let me do it?"

Yinzhen shrank back, shook his head and said, "How can I let you take it? I'll take it, I'll take it."

As he said that, Yinzhen put all the things in his left hand into his right hand.Then he freed one hand and took Tong Jia Xili's hand as well.

"I'm always busy, so I don't have much time to accompany you." Yinzhen said: "I have time to accompany you out today, so I should do something for you, right?"

In the past, Tong Jia Xili accompanied Yinzhen to study and helped him grind.Every little bit, Yinzhen also kept it in his heart.

Tong Jia is good at learning pears, and he knows it all.

"Well... I know." Tong Jia Xili nodded, but still walked around to Yinzhen, and took the remaining two bags of fried chestnuts from Yinzhen.

"If you are considerate of me, I should also be considerate of you, right?" Tong Jia Xi Li said: "You are not allowed to take all the things. I will take some too, so that's good, isn't it?"

The two people who were wandering wantonly in the market just walked aimlessly like this.

In the distance are Dong Eshi and Yaertan who also chose to go shopping on this day.

Dong Eshi and Yaertan have become friends since they met in the jewelry store that year.We often come and go, and today we made an appointment together.

"Sister Tan, look at Fang's opal, isn't it particularly transparent?"

Under the sun, Dong Eshi was holding a hairpin inlaid with opals, gesticulating in front of Yaertan.Indistinctly, revealing a bit of comparison.

Yaertan knew Dong E's intentions tacitly, and only said: "It's pretty good, it matches my sister very well."

Dong Eshi seemed very satisfied with this, and pulled Yaertan's arm again, and said, "I know a shop selling jade wares has just opened up ahead, why don't we go and have a look?"

"Okay." Yaertan nodded, then followed Dong E's side and walked forward.

The two people who also came out bumped into each other not far from the entrance of the jade shop.

At that time, Tong Jia Xili had just bought a bunch of candied haws, and he stretched out his hand to let Yinzhen eat the first candied haws.

Naturally, Yinzhen was also very cooperative, eating next to Tong Jia Xili.

Such an intimate act just happened to fall into Dong E's eyes.

"Ah, isn't that Tong Jia's?" Dong E's voice raised, and he was naturally very surprised at such a scene.

Yaertan immediately looked over, but the person who caught Yaertan's attention was Yinzhen who was beside Tong Jia Xili.

"Who is the person next to Mrs. Tong Jia?" Mrs. Dong E raised her eyebrows, and she couldn't tell her identity just by looking at her clothes, so she said, "Isn't it Shun Anyan? These brothers and sisters are also out for a walk?"

"That's the fourth elder brother."
