shock!She can travel through time

Chapter 136 Seeing a Foreign Family for the First Time
Lin Wanwan sat in the cabin, grilling a charcoal basin, and continued to read her books on subject one and four.It is impossible to say that she is not nervous at all when she is about to meet her mother-in-law, after all, she is a counterfeit.

But the more this is the case, the more she needs to learn to divert her attention. Time cannot be wasted on useless negative emotions.Soldiers come to block the water and cover it with soil, there is nothing to panic, just let nature take its course.

At daybreak, the boat sailed into the inland river from the East China Sea and docked at the pier.The draft of this port is far lower than that of Nangang in Shanxian County, but its prosperity is almost equal. Even before dawn, the pier is already full of fishing boats.

There are boats of all sizes parked on the water, and many fishermen make boats their homes.The southern end of the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal is Hangzhou. The waterways here extend in all directions, and ships from all walks of life come and go all night, which is very lively.

In the fourth year of Wude in the Tang Dynasty, Hangzhou was set up, leading Qiantang, Fuyang, and Yuhang counties. In the fourth year of Zhenguan, Qiantang was divided into Yanguan County.

At this time, Hangzhou was still an era when two cities stood side by side. Qiantang County to the east of the West Lake was an old city that followed the Wei and Jin Dynasties, while Hangzhou Prefecture was built in the west of Liupu in the Sui Dynasty and built on the Phoenix Mountain, and the Tang Dynasty followed the Sui Dynasty.The main purpose of the new city is for military defense, and there are not as many residents as the old city.

The two cities belong to the upper and lower levels in terms of administrative relationship, but they are completely independent in terms of geographical location, not connected to each other, and each has its own city wall.Unlike most towns in the Tang Dynasty, which are divided into outer city and inner city, the inner city is surrounded by the outer city.

Lin Wanwan's natal family lived in Qiantang County, and she was probably still trapped in the city at this time, as all major cities and towns in the Tang Dynasty imposed a curfew.

Not long after the boat docked, the sun rose, the bells and drums in the city announced the dawn, the gates of the city opened in all directions, and there was an endless stream of people coming and going.

After Lin Wanwan enjoyed the magnificent view of the sunrise, she hugged Xiao Qingyu, who was still sleepy and staring, and abandoned the ship to land.Xiao Qingyu's small head rested on her shoulder, her eyes still closed and she refused to wake up.

Lin Wanwan covered Xiao Qingyu with a mink fur cloak bought at Datang Tailor. Even though it was cold winter, she would not freeze her at all.

The carriage sent by Xiao's residence to welcome Lin Wanwan quickly rushed over, Lin Mengbo and others helped the group of Xiao's servants to load Lin Wanwan's salute into the carriage, and then returned directly to the boat.

"Wanniang, we're going back now, and we'll pick you up at the end of the month." Lin Mengbo said standing outside the carriage where Lin Wanwan and Xiao Qingyu were.

"Cousins ​​have worked hard all night, are you going to sail back now? Don't play here for a day and take a rest?"

Lin Mengbo shook his head and said, "There are so many things to welcome and send off at home during the Chinese New Year, and I can't afford to delay."

"Okay, then be careful all the way."

After getting into the carriage and entering the city not long after, Xiao Qingyu gradually woke up in her arms, blinked at Lin Wanwan with her big eyes open for a while, then broke free, opened the curtain of the carriage, and looked outside curiously.

"Mother, have we reached Qiantang yet?"

"Yeah, Xiao Yu'er, are you happy? Do you like to come out to play?"

"I like it. Mother, there are so many people here, more than people in our clan."

"That's nature. This is a big city."

The mother and daughter whispered together in the carriage, watching the bustling market all the way.

After walking for about an hour, a group of people entered a luxurious Lifang, which was more lively than the main street - after all, the main street of Datang is not allowed to open shops.

In the square, there are more human fireworks, and there are many snack bars and itinerant vendors.When the carriage passed a mobile Hubing stand, the aroma of Hubing came straight into the carriage.

Xiao Qingyu immediately shouted: "Mother, I'm hungry."

Lin Wanwan yelled to stop Kunlun who was driving the car, and the group of people who followed stopped hurriedly.With so many people, they immediately wrapped up the freshly baked golden and crispy sesame seed pancakes on the pancake stand.

The carriage continued to move forward, Xiao Qingyu and Lin Wanwan each ate a mustard pancake, eating happily.

The servants of the Xiao family who greeted them looked at the sesame seed pancakes in their hands and looked at each other in blank dismay. They really had never seen such a lady who would directly call for a parking horse outside to buy snacks from a mobile vendor, and they couldn't help but secretly laughed in their hearts.

After all, he is from the countryside, and his behavior is loose and unruly.

Lin Wanwan, who relies on herself for everything, is not Lin Daiyu who has just entered Jia's mansion. She refuses to take an extra step or say a word, for fear of being ridiculed.

If she wants to strictly study the noble rules of the Tang Dynasty, then the Tang Dynasty is no longer her paradise, and she might as well be in the modern age.

After the mother and daughter finished eating the Hubing biscuits and wiped their hands with paper towels, Xiao's residence would almost arrive.

He got off his horse and entered the side door, and several old nuns greeted him inside.

"Oh, Mrs. Lin and the little lady have worked hard all the way here, get on the sedan chair and follow me to the lotus courtyard, the old lady has been waiting for a long time."

The old Hangzhou dialect spoken is very similar to that of Yongcheng, so there is no problem in communication.

Lin Wanwan nodded, and wanted to carry Xiao Qingyu into the sedan chair first.But Xiao Qingyu suddenly arrived in a strange place, but she didn't want to be separated from her in the sedan chair.

There was no other way, Lin Wanwan had no choice but to say: "My little Yu'er admits she was born, so she won't take a sedan chair, we just walk over."

The old mother hurriedly smiled and said: "No, no, if Mrs. Lin doesn't feel crowded, she will take the little lady in the same sedan chair with her arms in her arms. Don't worry, they have enough strength to carry them."

Lin Wanwan can do as she pleases, since everyone has arranged this way, she will do as she pleases.

The Xiao Mansion is not too big, at least much smaller than the Suzhou gardens that Lin Wanwan saw later.After getting on the sedan chair, he walked through the shadow wall, and then crossed a wooden bridge, and arrived at the main courtyard where Xiao's mother lived.

Lin Wanwan got off the sedan chair with Xiao Qingyu in her arms, and the maids in emerald skirts who were waiting on the steps of the main room greeted them with a smile, and welcomed them into the room.

There was already a silver-haired and kind-eyed old lady sitting on the hanging bed waiting, surrounded by women on both sides.Lin Wanwan folded her hands on her abdomen, bent her back slightly, bent her knees lightly, performed a blessing ceremony, and said in her mouth, "See you, grandma, Wanwan."

Xiao Qingyu saluted like a cat and tiger, but she didn't call out, but pulled Lin Wanwan's skirt and looked at the people in the hall without saying a word.

Mother Xiao stretched out her hand to Lin Wanwan emotionally, and said with tears in her eyes: "Okay, good boy, come here quickly, and show grandma."

Lin Wanwan stepped forward in a little embarrassment, and was dragged by the old lady to the side of the hanging bed and sat down together. She touched her face and sighed: "Your mother and father have a hard life, and their whereabouts are unknown. I thought they had no descendants. After all, God Chou Lian, leaving behind a scumbag, it really hurts me."

Everyone around heard the words and was in a hurry to persuade them. Lin Wanwan and Xiao Qingyu opened the same big eyes, with embarrassed but polite smiles on their faces, allowing them to look at each other.

After expressing their emotions for a while, everyone calmed down again. Mother Xiao began to ask about Lin Wanwan's recent situation. After learning that she lived in seclusion with the old god in the mountains since childhood, she sighed again.
