Chapter 221 Seems to be looking for trouble
Shen Rong woke up when Changsheng's arm touched her, but she pretended she knew nothing. She adjusted herself to a comfortable sitting position, leaning on Changsheng's shoulder, and then quickly fell into a deep sleep.
………………
In Taohua Village, an exquisite horse-drawn carriage arrived and stopped at Shen Erzhu's house, which shocked the villagers. Everyone subconsciously gathered outside the gate of Shen Laogen's house to watch the excitement.
We have all lived in the same village for decades. Everyone knows who knows each other. We all know which family has several poor relatives. So when did Shen Laogen's family have such a wealthy family of relatives?
Everyone was watching the fun, but they all subconsciously stayed away from the carriage, for fear of accidentally offending someone.
The carriage stopped in front of Shen Laogen's house. A little girl lifted the curtain and got off the carriage. Then she stood beside the carriage and helped a graceful middle-aged woman get off the carriage.
The woman looked to be about 40 years old. She was wearing a purple satin flowered dress, a purple purse on her waist, a gold hairpin with a longevity pattern on her head, a silver filigree hairpin with flowers on it, and a pair of jade bracelets on her hands. As soon as she got off the car, she looked around the Shen family, and saw a group of peasants standing not far away. A trace of disgust flashed across her eyes.
"Why are you standing there like an idiot? Go call someone." Wu Momo glanced at the little girl who was walking beside her.
When the villagers saw this, they immediately started talking about it.
"Oh, this guy doesn't look like a relative. He looks like someone who is here to cause trouble."
"I don't think so. Who would want to have two women come to the house to pick a fight?"
"Let's wait and see. We'll know soon."
At this moment, there was not much work to do in the fields of each household, and everyone was bored. They stayed outside Shen Laogen's house and talked about gossip in the village.
The villagers say that Shen Laogen is Shen Erzhu's father, and their family has never been divided.
The villagers saw that Shen Laogen quickly followed the little girl out of the house, welcomed the older woman into the house, and then slammed the door shut, blocking the villagers' inquiring view.
Although everyone was blocked by the door and couldn't see the excitement inside, they were so curious that they were climbing up the wall and prying through the cracks in the door, trying not to miss any of the excitement.
………………
"We've arrived at the county town." The coachman outside the carriage shouted, and Shen Rong woke up.
The noise in my ears suddenly became clearer.
When Shen Chunsheng opened the curtain, Shen Rong found that they were already at the city gate, waiting in line to enter the city.
The last time she came, Shen Rong was so focused on immortality that she didn't even bother to notice whether there was a queue to enter the city, nor did she lift the curtain to see what the city gate looked like.
This time, she finally saw clearly that the wall of the county town was higher than that of the town.
This is a real city wall, different from the ones surrounded by houses in the town.
There were two yamen runners guarding the city gate and collecting city taxes from people entering the city.
Ox carts and horse carriages entering the city were charged two cents, and the bailiffs only took a glance at the common people carrying loads and let them pass, without any strict inspection.
"Brother, if you are not in a hurry to leave, why don't you wait at the door and go back with us?
I'll give you another ten cents when we get back, but you may have to wait for two hours for us to get on and off, is that okay?" Shen Chunsheng glanced at the ox-horse carriage waiting to pick up passengers not far from the city gate.
It is easy to hire a car in the county town, but the fare is expensive. Besides, the old man is a steady driver. If they can wait for them to come back together, they can ask him to take them directly back to Taohua Village.
The man grinned, "Of course, I'll wait for you here, but I can only wait for an hour. If it's too late, I'll have to leave as a guest."
The middle-aged man was also very happy. What was the big deal about waiting for an hour?
There are many ox carts and even horse carriages in the county town. People like him who are from outside probably have no business and cannot compete with others, because they have their own horse and carriage business.
It is better to wait and earn another ten cents than to go back with an empty cart. There is no guarantee that there will be any business when you go back, as there are so many ox carts waiting!
Hearing that he could only wait for one hour, Shen Chunsheng looked at Shen Rong.
Shen Rong nodded.
One hour is enough. I just came to say thank you. There is nothing else to do.
If she had enough time, she would like to stroll around the county town.
However, Shen Rong knew that the price of renting a horse carriage to go back would definitely be more expensive than the car they took here.
Seeing that the man agreed, Shen Chunsheng jumped off the carriage, picked up his things, and took Shen Rong and his wife and the others to line up and enter the county town.
After entering the county town, Shen Rong felt that she couldn't see enough. Although she had been here last time, she had taken a horse-drawn carriage directly to the gate of Taohua's shop. She had never seen what the streets in the county looked like.
The county town is more prosperous than the town. There are rows of small shops on both sides of the street. There is a constant stream of cars and pedestrians in the middle of the road, and the hawkers' cries are louder and louder.
Shen Rong secretly compared the county town with Qingshi Town. The county town was indeed much more prosperous. To the east of the county was the county government office.
In Dayong, the east has always been the most respected, followed by the north. Rich people live in these two directions, while shops, merchants and common people live in the west and south respectively. Scholars, farmers, merchants and artisans, merchants in Dayong have the same low status, but merchants are rich! Therefore, the poorest are actually the common people in the south.
It was not easy to find the Zhao family’s small grocery store among so many shops. They were unfamiliar with the place and had to ask others for directions.
However, Shen Rong remembered that the Zhao family's grocery store was not big and was located in the civilian area on South Street.
Shen Chunsheng knew more than Shen Rong, so as soon as they entered the city, he took Shen Rong and her husband towards South Street.
Since entering the city, Changsheng has been closer to Shen Rong, and even held Shen Rong's hand regardless of other people's eyes.
Based on Shen Rong's understanding of Changsheng, she knew that Changsheng should be nervous.
Although she didn't know what Changsheng was nervous about, she didn't pull her hand away from Changsheng's. She could feel that Changsheng was a little uneasy, and that uneasiness was related to her.
"Changsheng, don't worry. We will express our gratitude and leave Taohua's house later. We will not stay for long. The carriage is still waiting for us outside the city!" Shen Rong whispered to comfort Changsheng.
After Changsheng heard what Shen Rong said, the hand he held on Shen Rong was not so tight.
The distance from the city gate to South Street was not short, and the three of them had to walk, and they did not walk very fast.
There was a stall selling buns on the roadside. The buns on the stall were particularly fragrant. When Shen Rong and the other two passed by the stall, Changsheng's stomach made a rumbling sound.
Shen Rong then remembered that they had been out for a long time. It was already late and the sun was high in the sky. It was obviously noon.
When she first married Changsheng, Sixth Grandma was like other villagers, only cooking two meals a day when there was no busy farming season.
Later, our family conditions became better and better, and I don’t know when we started to eat three meals a day.
They go out early in the morning, eat early, and are used to having three meals a day. By this time, they are already hungry.
"Brother, let's eat something together first!" Shen Rong looked at the row of snack stalls on the street, thinking.
