Acacia, don't be negative

Chapter 172 Token
Gui Ji said sternly from the outside: "The virtuous king should stop mocking his subordinates, this is the duty of his subordinates."

Ye Qing couldn't stand it now, and said: "If you find it troublesome, then you can go drive and let him come in to rest."

Su Jing couldn't laugh or cry: "I helped him so quickly, anyway, I took care of you along the way."

On the way, everyone talked about each sentence, and not long after noon, they arrived at the next city.I haven't entered the city gate yet, but seeing a lot of people coming and going in and out of the city gate, it is very lively at first glance.And on the city wall, there are two slightly mottled characters written impressively: Faint City.

After entering the city, what you see most is a piece of festive red.Red lanterns, red cloth shop, red boxes and red clothes, etc., this seems to be a place where businessmen from all walks of life come to purchase.

Su Jingdao: "This place is not far from Gusu. Gusu is rich in silk brocade. When we arrive here, we make a lot of red ceremonial items. With the convenience of land and water, we have become a gathering place for red errand items. People from other places like to come here. Shipping here."

Ye Qing asked curiously: "Is it just selling things for marriage?" She just happened to see a businessman passing by with a cart full of red hijabs, weighing poles, and a large amount of red silk, "Then why is it a dark city? The city is right."

Su Jing smiled, and said: "In ancient times, the marriage between a man and a woman was not at dusk, it was called the ceremony of dusk in ancient times."

Ye Qing glanced at him: "You understand all this."

Ye Songdao: "If he doesn't understand, how can he spend so long in the romantic scene, and a few words can make the beautiful woman's heart burst into joy."

Su Jing came over and took a deep breath: "Then did I make you happy?"

After entering the city, I first found an inn to stay.Seeing that it was still early, they came out one after another to stroll around the bustling market in this dark city.There are people coming and going on the street, and there are many pedestrians, and there are many customers around each stall, either bargaining or choosing novelties.The silk and satin brocade shipped from Gusu is really beautiful. It is very beautiful to be used as the bride's wedding dress or the groom's wedding dress, and the pattern embroidery is also very beautiful.

Therefore, in addition to businessmen, people not far away, as well as elders for the marriage of their family and children, come here to personally choose cloth to go back to make wedding clothes.

Ye Qing was curious on the street, wandered here and there to have a look.It was Guiji who pushed her away, and Ye Song could tell that she was very happy to go shopping with Guiji, just like that innocent little girl back then.So Ye Song didn't join them anymore, and went for a stroll with Su Jing.

Su Jing suddenly patted her on the shoulder lightly, she came back to her senses and saw two small, cute and finely crafted concentric knots hanging between Su Jing's fingers.Su Jingniang was also very terrified when she got angry, she actually bought this kind of concentric knot that only the youngest daughter would like, and said with a smile: "You choose one, we each have one."

Ye Song snorted and walked in front: "Who wants something like you."

Su Jing was relentless in the back: "Is it okay to treat it as a token between our friends?"

"Token?" Ye Song raised her eyebrows, and the street was crowded with people. She turned to look at Su Jing, "You might as well give me a piece of gold."

Before they knew it, the two of them separated from Ye Qinggui.Looking around, walking and stopping, but didn't find any trace of Ye Qing and Gui Ji, Su Jing put her arm around Ye Song's shoulders and flirted with her, Ye Song refused to take his sympathy knot, so he had no choice but to play it by himself After playing for a while, he put it in his arms and said: "Leave them alone, don't you think it's an eyesore to be between the two of you. Go, I'll take you to eat delicious food."

There is a street in Huncheng that sells food, and diners can almost find gourmet snacks from all over Beixia here.So Ye Song and Su Jing ate from the street to the end of the street. In the end, they almost choked on half a sticky rice chicken with bamboo leaves. They beat Su Jing and asked him to buy sour plum soup.

Huncheng has well-developed waterways, and there are several rivers passing through the city. On both sides of the river are green brick and white walls and tiled houses, which have the charm of the south of the Yangtze River.The wind blowing from the river carried a damp breath.Ye Song was standing by the river waiting for Su Jing.

Under the bridge, there are several awning boats moored, and the old man in charge of pulling the awning boats is sitting on the stone pier and smoking a pipe, probably waiting for tourists who are willing to take the boat.

Ye Song was so full that he hiccupped, and suddenly his hand was heavy. She raised her head and saw that Su Jing had come back at some point, and what was placed in her hand was a freshly bought sour plum soup in an earthen sand pot like wine. , heavy.Ye Song opened it and took a sip, sighing in comfort.

Under the sun, Su Jing squinted her eyes, her eyes were shining brilliantly, and the smile on her lips was as warm as a spring breeze, and said: "I didn't let you eat so much, don't blame me if you can't go back after a while." A tent was set up on the brow bone, and following Ye Song's gaze, "What were you looking at just now?" He saw the black-covered boat and the old man under the bridge, and his pupils turned slightly. popped up.

As a result, Su Jing jumped into the river, and there happened to be two or three pedestrians passing by on the bridge. Seeing this, they thought that someone was committing suicide, and they all leaned on the railing to watch.But Su Jing landed steadily on a black-covered boat, standing on the bow and facing the wind.The wind lifted his long hair, strands of which seemed to outline the gentleness and coolness of the summer wind, which aroused the amazement of passers-by watching.

The black-covered boat swayed twice, creating circles of ripples in the water.He stretched out his hand to untie the rope on the boat, took the wooden paddle, and rowed towards Ye Song. The old man lost his composure immediately, knocked off the dry tobacco with one stick, stood up and shouted: "Hey, you boat thief!"

Ye Song stood on the shore, the corners of his mouth curled up lightly.She suddenly felt that the scenery in the south of the Yangtze River here is very good.

Su Jing ignored it, and Su Bai held the paddle with a strong hand while paddling, and soon reached Ye Song's side.The embankment is very high. To prevent people from falling into the water, there is a row of stone railings on the side. Ye Song lowered his eyes and saw Su Jing just raised her head, and her eyes met. Su Jing smiled coquettishly.

Ye Song also had a relaxed smile in his eyes, pointing to the old man under the bridge who was anxiously scratching the wall, said: "You steal people's boats in broad daylight, don't make people jump into the river and commit suicide in such a hurry."

Su Jing smiled and narrowed her eyes and said: "Borrow it, how can it be considered stealing. You jump off, and I will follow you here."

Ye Song raised his eyebrows and asked, "Are you sure you won't capsize?"

Even the well-meaning onlookers on the bridge disagreed with Su Jing's approach, and kept persuading: "Girl, don't jump, it's dangerous, you'd better go under the bridge and get on the boat."

Su Jing looked at her, with a smile on her lips: "I said I would catch you, and I will catch you. Do you believe me or don't..." How did you know that before she finished speaking, Ye Song suddenly supported her with one hand? He jumped out of the railing.

Ye Song would occasionally act rashly.It's not because most people tell her to believe in something or not, so she will believe in something or not.Her trust in anyone and everything comes from her belief in herself, her eyes and ears, her feelings and moods.

Su Jing threw away the wooden oar, and when everyone else raised his breath, he caught Ye Song with both hands, laughed comfortably, and hugged Ye Song tightly into his arms.At the same time, the awning boat swayed violently due to the sudden uneven force, and it tended to overturn to one side.Su Jing's feet were firmly planted on the board of the boat. Wherever the boat tilted, he borrowed strength in the opposite direction, so that the poor black-covered boat could not turn over, but gradually stabilized.He joked: "I said I could catch you, but I haven't guaranteed that the boat will not capsize. Why did you jump off?"

Ye Song took a sip of sour plum soup as if nothing had happened, and said, "It's not important, anyway, I can swim."

Su Jing weighed her, and said, "I don't know if it's because I ate too much, but I'm two catties heavier than before." Before Ye Song's attack, he put Ye Song down first, and turned around. Go get the paddle.Turning around and throwing a silver coin at the old man, the old man picked it up and bit it with his teeth, dumbfounded, because Su Jing was really generous. "Grandpa, let me borrow your boat, and I'll take my daughter-in-law... oh! It hurts! I'll take her for a swim!"

Seeing the compensation, the old man waved his hands in compromise and walked up the bridge, saying, "Forget it! I'm planning to change to a new ship, and this ship is for you!"

The awning boat swam leisurely on the water, and the wind and sunshine were very comfortable.There are families on both sides of the river. There are children chasing and playing on the embankment, holding colorful paper windmills in their hands and turning them non-stop. The willows beside the embankment are slowly floating.At regular intervals, there is a stone step connecting the embankment and the river surface. While washing clothes by the river, a beautiful woman yells loudly to tell the chasing children to be careful.

Ye Song sat on the bow of the boat, holding the pot of earth and sand in his hand, taking a sip from time to time, squinting his eyes, enjoying this rare tranquility.

Su Jing raised her eyes and looked into the distance. At the end of the drink, it seemed that the sky and water were all in one color, converging into a larger river. His eyes kept falling on Ye Song, and said: "If you like it, when you are free later, I'll take you to many other places, and many interesting ones."

Ye Song propped his chin and turned his head to look at him, with a smile on his face, he said, "You can see that I like it very much."

Su Jing simply put down the wooden paddle in her hand, and came to sit with her, her slightly raised brows were obviously happy, because Ye Song's smile added a touch of tenderness, and said: "You smile like this, just because you like it."

Ye Song handed him the jar of soil and sand, and he also raised his head and took a sip of sour plum soup. He didn't want to make his teeth sour, and said, "Why do women like to drink this kind of thing? It's better to drink vinegar than to drink sour."
