Across the Market

Chapter 144

Seeing her daughter's sleepy eyes, looking very tired and lazy, Wei Sanniang said distressedly: "Why don't you go alone, Miss Fu stay at home and sleep a little longer, I'm really exhausted after these days, Take good care of yourself at home."

Zhu Fu woke up immediately, hugged Wei Sanniang's arm and said, "No, I'm going, mother, you wait for me, I'll get dressed very quickly."

Because the mother and daughter were going out early in the morning today, Wei Sanniang was afraid that she would disturb her husband and other children by getting up early, so she let the eldest daughter sleep with the two younger ones, and she slept with the second daughter.

Seeing that her daughter was in a hurry to get up and put on her clothes, Wei Sanniang reached out and touched her daughter's head, telling her not to worry, she went into the kitchen to boil four eggs, filled the water bag with a bag of hot water, and I took two leftover steamed buns from last night and planned to eat them later on the road.

The weather has been good for the past few days, and the weather today is also good. Although the whole sky is still dark, a red glow can be seen faintly in the east.

The Zhu family and the Wei family are not on the same street, so it would take a quarter of an hour to walk there.

When Wei Sanniang's mother and daughter reached the gate of Wei's house, the group of Wei's family members were already waiting at the door, and there were still several carriages resting in front of the door.

Wei Xiangbao saw that the person she hated the most also followed, stomped his feet, pointed at Zhu Fu and said, "Mother, I don't want her to follow, I don't want to see her. Mother, who asked them to come? Hmph, they still tell us to wait, I hate them."

Zhu Fu walked over with his head held high, squinting his eyes and said with a smile: "You hate me, and I also hate you, so the best way you don't want to see me is... don't follow me, go home and sleep. I see you You haven't opened your eyes yet, and you are unwilling to get up."

Ge Shi was furious, and pulled his daughter to his side, glaring at Zhu Fuji: "Which onion or garlic are you? Are you from our Wei family? Who allowed you to come with me? Humph, see If you want to take advantage of the bargain, don’t you just want to have a good meal with you.”

Zhu Fu covered his mouth with his hand and yawned. He ignored Ge Shi, but went back and held Wei Sanniang's arm and said, "Mother, you see, they don't want us to go at all. I called my aunt yesterday." Calling us is just meaning, since that's the case, let's go home. It's so cold, it's good to sleep under the blanket, why don't we go to Putuo Temple to offer incense."

Aunt Wei saw that the situation was not right, so she hurried over to persuade her, "Okay, third sister, brother and sister, each of you should give in. It's rare that my mother is in a good mood today, and I want to take you out together. We must be kind and friendly." Yes, don't make your mother angry."

After speaking, he patted Ge Shi's hand lightly and winked at her.

Ge Shi seemed to be able to remember something serious now, and quickly smiled and said, "Yes, yes, since the elder sister said it, then we must be kind and don't offend the Bodhisattva."

Wei Sanniang didn't say much, just hugged her daughter in her arms, walked up to Wei Xueshi, and called her mother.

Wei Xue didn't even open his cloudy old eyes, he only responded softly, and called everyone to get on the carriage.

"Mother, I'll take the same car with the third sister and the others." After getting the consent, Aunt Wei pointed to the last car and said, "Third sister, let's take that car."

The carriage drove slowly, and Wei Sanniang passed the water in the kettle to her daughter, and took out the prepared eggs and steamed buns.

Passing an egg and steamed buns to Aunt Wei, she said, "Sister, can you eat some too?"

Aunt Wei usually eats porridge with bird's nest and lotus seeds for breakfast, no matter how bad it is, it must be white fungus and lotus seeds, and it comes with side dishes and several snacks. How can I still eat steamed buns and eggs now?

Although she was hungry, she still shook her head with some disgust: "I won't eat, I came here after I finished eating."

"Mother, let's eat. My aunt can only eat delicacies from mountains and seas on weekdays. How can I eat such rough steamed buns?" She took the steamed buns from her mother's hand and shared them equally with her mother. The breakfast was all divided, and while drinking water and gnawing on the steamed buns, he ate it loudly, and nodded desperately and said, "Mm, it's really delicious. The steamed buns you steamed are so fragrant and delicious."

"Then eat more." Wei Sanniang patted her daughter's head, then handed her the water bottle, "Come on, drink some water, don't choke on it."

Aunt Wei looked down on steamed buns and eggs, but she didn't have bird's nest to eat at this time, she swallowed while disgusted.
