Traveling through the Three Kingdoms: She brings unlimited supplies to build infrastructure

Chapter 162

It's May, a time when the wind is high and the air is crisp.

During the Dragon Boat Festival, various wealthy families bring their relatives and play in the upper reaches of the Ru River.

At this time, there are all kinds of pleasure boats on the wet water.

Many barriers were erected along the riverside, enclosing a large area for women and children to play safely.

Large households in the county will also fund the formation of a flying boat team, and watch the flying boats competing for the crossing on the banks of the Ru River.

It’s just that this year there is always less interest.

On the early morning of the fifth day of May, the actions of the new county king and the rows of heads on the city tower were enough to scare some people.

But the real wealthy family should still have some fun.

A large number of bamboo tubes filled with rice were thrown upstream to worship Qu Yuan. These bamboo tubes were blocked with neem leaves. It is said that if this was done, the evil dragons in the water would not dare to invade.

I don’t know if there are evil dragons in the water, but most of these bamboo tubes will be fished out by civilians downstream and stuffed into the bellies of hungry people.

In the middle reaches is the festival gathering area.

The markets at this time were mostly government-run restaurants and shops located in the city.

The markets formed spontaneously during such festivals also require official approval, and city orders and city soldiers are set up to supervise the market and safety.

Compared with stores in cities that still require entry barriers, the entry barriers for such festival markets are much higher.

Therefore, many nearby farmers come to sell their agricultural products or hand-woven bamboo baskets.

From brocades to rhinoceros-like pearls and jade, to spices and leather goods, to farm handicrafts, you can find them all in the market.

But these are not what attracted Gongsun Cheng. What really interested him were the various puppet shows and sideshows on the market.

The urging continued along the way.

When we finally reached Rushui, the servants who came first had already erected a circle of curtains by the waterside, and were laying out the table tables, food and drinks they brought one by one.

Gongsun Cheng had already seen the lively market in the carriage and could no longer hold himself back. He hurriedly pulled Ah Qing, who was also excited, to go out to play.

Gongsun Yan got off the carriage and saw him like this. He hurriedly asked Wang Wu to order ten guards to follow him closely.

There were many people in the market, and she didn't want to cause a bloody incident like losing Gongsun Zan's only seedling.

He was wearing a curtain hat and walking slowly side by side with Zhao Yun behind him.

People come and go in the city, and many noble ladies from aristocratic families will also come out to play at this time. Whether or not to wear a curtain depends on personal preference.

There are also beautiful girls dressed in luxurious clothes and with pearls on their hair, escorted by guards, walking openly in the city.

It attracted the Taoist knights to look at him wrongly without getting angry. This shows that the world is open and open, far from being as oppressive as that of the Ming and Qing Dynasties.

Pedestrians come and go in all kinds of clothes. Some are wearing fine clothes, and some are not wearing clothes that cover their bodies.

Gongsun Yan looked around under his hat.

To a certain extent, she was as excited as Gongsun Cheng. For her, even the roadside meat stalls were a new sight.

This was really painful for Zhao Yun, who had been walking beside her.

Zhao Yun paid careful attention to her gaze and hesitated when he saw her looking at a pork seller with a money bag in her hand.

pork……

are you buying?
Although Zixiu said he would buy her whatever he saw, buying pork as a gift, even Zhao Yun thought it was a bit strange.

After a moment's hesitation, Gongsun Yan looked away and looked at the wine shop nearby.

I saw the lady selling wine in the wine shop wearing a tight knee-length skirt and walking barefoot in the wine house.

The quality of the turbid wine in the wine house is unknown, but there are a large number of idle people who are willing to spend two yuan to buy a bowl.

Just for the small waist and high buttocks that were exposed when the wine seller bent down to filter the wine.

He twisted his waist and gave a glass of wine to a man buying wine. As soon as he turned around, the bearded man blew a whistle and slapped the wine seller on the buttocks. "ah--"

The wine-selling lady glanced at the man with anger and joy. Although her appearance was ordinary, she was charming.

The men in the wine shop burst into tacit laughter.

Even the owner of the wine shop and the husband of the wine-selling lady was wearing a trousers and shirtless while washing dishes and laughing so hard.

Unexpectedly, the market road in the late Han Dynasty was so wild. Gongsun Yan was about to look again, but Zhao Yun took a step forward and blocked his sight.

"Madam, don't dirty your eyes." The tall and tough young man coaxed in a low voice with helplessness on his face.

It didn't make her eyes dirty, and she found it quite interesting.

Looking through the gauze of the hat, the helplessness on Zhao Yun's face made Gongsun Yan chuckle.

"If you still call me wife, you will stand here until dark."

Gongsun Yan stopped, like a child playing rogue.

"This..." If you don't call me your wife, why would you call me?
Zhao Yun was startled, but did not answer immediately. Gongsun Yan walked around him and looked towards the wine shop again.

Of the two of them, although Gongsun Yan was wearing a silk hat, she could still be seen as a slim woman, while Zhao Yun also had a tall and straight figure, a handsome appearance, and was very conspicuous when standing on the road.

The wine-selling lady naturally noticed it too.

Seeing the lady wearing a silk hat looking this way, the lady selling wine, who already felt that it was unseemly to do business like this, showed some austerity on her face.

He gently pulled at his tight clothes.

But he saw the lady a few steps away, gently raising her hand and shaking it at her.

A section of his white wrist was exposed from his sleeve. Although his expression and appearance could not be seen clearly through the hat, the wine-selling lady was sure that the lady was smiling at her.

That must be a very beautiful girl.

The wine-selling lady also had a smile on her face as she watched the lady being led away by the hand of the very handsome tall man beside her.

He couldn't help but look back at his husband.

The man was walking into the makeshift thatched cottage with a stack of washed pottery bowls in his arms. When he saw the wine seller looking back at him, she asked what was wrong with her.

He hurriedly put down the bowl, walked over, and asked, pressing it against his temple.

This intimate gesture made the restaurant guests burst into laughter.

"No discomfort, go and wash the dishes." The wine-selling lady laughed, pushed her man away, turned around and served some dried beans to the guests.

There are three little ones waiting to be fed at home, so there is no free time for flirting.

People were coming and going around him, but Zhao Yun felt his heart beating wildly.

It was clear that what he was holding was a small piece of the girl's fingertip, but he felt like he was holding a piece of tender tofu.

It's so tender that with just a little effort, it turns into water and slips away from your fingers.

The girl he was holding didn't stop, walking slowly and slowly while talking in a smiling voice.

"Tell me."

"I call you Zilong, what is it fair for you to call me?"

The tender fingers in her palm dangled lightly, refusing to let him hold her hand obediently. She only hooked one of his fingers, and it was about to slip away.

Zhao Yun felt anxious.

"Ayan." He called in a low voice, "Don't tease me again."

After a pause, he heard the low laughter of the girl behind him. Her little hand slipped into his palm like a snake, squeezed between his fingers, and intertwined with his ten fingers.

"Okay, no more teasing you."

No wonder!
