It rained all night last night, and I can still smell the moist air in the early morning. Song Xintong stood by the window of the hotel room and looked down at the courtyard. The leaves of osmanthus trees in the courtyard fell to the ground, and there were many small white flowers.
It's a pity that all of them are blown off by the wind and rain before they bloom.
After the rain, the sun was not hot enough, but it was enough to dry the wet ground. After breakfast, there were more and more people on the street. The sound of Hawking, bargaining, and the sound of cars and horses turning came into the inn from time to time, which made song Xintong itch.
"Brother in law, can we go out to play?" Twins know that elder sister is also forbidden to travel, and it's no use asking her. They still have to ask her brother-in-law, "it's so busy outside, and there are sugar sellers. We want to go out and have a look."
Song Xintong has been banned for two days, and he especially wants to go out. He is eager to see the clouds open, but he helps the twins to talk: "they have been accompanying me these two days, but they haven't gone out much. Let them go out."
The twins nodded and looked forward to landing.
"If you can't keep an eye on them, I'll go with you and keep an eye on them." Song Xintong almost flattering eyes looking at the landing clouds, "last night I heard the shop boy say that the number one scholar in the building newly invited Mr. storyteller, or the capital, said the books they have never heard of, especially wonderful."
"Want to go?" Lu Yunkai doesn't know where song Xintong is going. He can't wait to go out, so he asks.
"Not bad." Song Xintong pretended that he didn't want to go out. "It's been two or three days since he came here. Dabao hasn't gone out yet."
Dabao looked at her, and chuckled and did not speak. He and Xiaobao followed their brother-in-law to the alley on the other side of the college twice, but only she did not go out.
"Brother in law, take us. We really want to hear that Mr. Shuo tells stories. We don't know whether it's sister or Mr. Shuo." Dabao's black and round eyes turned, looking at Lu Yunkai with a naive face.
Lu Yunkai looks at Song Xintong with a smile, as if he knows that she has egged on the twins, but he doesn't say anything. He just says to the twins, "there are many people outside. You two can't run around. It's not right to bump into the noble."
The twins nodded joyfully, "we follow my brother-in-law and don't run around."
After that, they went to the next room to change their beautiful clothes. Song Xintong felt his stomach and looked at Yunkai pitifully. "You bully me like this. When I get home, I'll see how my mother handles you."
"My mother must be on my side." Lu Yunkai looked at his wife in order to want to go out and fight their own wits, it was funny.
"Not necessarily." Song Xintong stood up holding his waist. After five months, his stomach became much bigger. Even in loose clothes, it was obvious that she was pregnant. "When we went out, we went to see the doctor and asked the doctor to say if I could go out and walk."
Lu Yunkai thought, "it's OK."
The party went to the hospital in a carriage. When they got to the doctor for treatment, song Xintong felt completely relieved. He rushed to Yunkai and grunted two times with pride. He said angrily, "I said it's done. You still have to restrain me."
The old doctor touched his beard and said with a smile: "the young master also cares about his wife."
Song Xintong of course knew, embarrassed smile, said thanks and Lu Yunkai out of the hospital.
The location of the hospital is not far from the main street, nor is it far from the Zhuangyuan building. Song Xintong looked at the crowd in front of him, so he didn't let Daya catch up with him, and a few people walked slowly.
This side of the main street is the commercial street. The shops along the street are decorated very busily. People come and go very lively. Unlike the inn where they live, most of them are women's daily life of buying and selling vegetables.
"It's still early. Let's go to the cloth shop nearby? Buy some good materials and go back to make clothes. " Song Xintong points to a crowded cloth shop on the side of the road. It seems that business is very good.
Lu Yun took a look at the cloth shop where almost all the women went in and out, and frowned.
Song Xintong saw that he didn't want to go in, and he knew what he was thinking. Although Lu Yunkai was very kind to her, there were still some literati in his heart, and she didn't want to go in and out of this place where all women went in and out, so she understood very well.
"If you don't want to go in, you still won't go in." Song Xintong said.
Lu Yunkai said: "no, this cloth shop should belong to Jiang Mingzhao's family."
"His family?" Song Xintong took a look at the plaque, Jinxiu square.
"It should be." Lu Yunkai can't remember very well, he just heard about it.
"Then I'll have to choose more and let him give us a discount." Song Xintong jokingly said: "let's go in together."
Lu Yunkai thought, "it's OK."
Song Xintong went into the cloth shop, which is full of all kinds of good cloth, bright color, variety of colors, more than the pattern of the county. The cloth shops in the county have only pure color cloth or round copper money seal on the cloth. That kind of material is very valuable. Only the rich people outside the county are willing to pay for it.
Unlike here, she can't even see the variety. Some of them are printed with patterns of orchid and bamboo, but they are not as good-looking as modern weaving and dyeing technology.
Song Xintong saw that most of the clothes he bought were old men in his family, but some of his family would buy pure color cloth and let the embroiderer at home embroider by herself, or let the embroiderer in the cloth shop help to embroider the patterns.
Song Xintong doesn't know how to embroider, but Lu Mu knows how to embroider. It's very good-looking. Although it's not filial in my heart, I'd better buy some pure color cloth first.
Song Xintong felt the cloth on the counter. The inferior ones were all made of fine silk, and better ones were made of silk, brocade or yarn. Of course, there are many nice names, such as Yunwu silk, suruo yarn, Yunling brocade and so on.
Brocade should be the best cloth in the shop. It's made of 20% silk. Generally, the most wealthy people wear brocade, while the most wealthy people wear silk. Next, silk and satin.
Song Xintong, who are wearing fine cotton, can't be found in this cloth shop.
When he was in the county, song Xintong thought it was comfortable to wear fine cotton. Moreover, it was very high-end for Hyundai to wear pure cotton to make 20% clothes. But here it is, the country woodlouse.
So after Song Xintong saw some satins, the guys didn't pay much attention to her. They were all greeting other guests, but she didn't think much about it. She thought it was just too busy.
Song Xintong felt comfortable touching silk, but only red and blue. Lu Yunkai was used to wearing white and occasionally blue, so he asked the waiter who was entertaining guests, "do you have pure white and blue ones?"
The man raised his eyelids and looked at her. Before that, he saw them loitering outside for a long time, and they were wearing very plain fine cotton clothes. He immediately said impatiently, "these fabrics are very expensive. Don't touch them. Can you afford to pay if you touch them dirty?"
With these words, the people who looked at the cloth all around looked at her and Lu Yun, and their eyes were more or less ironic.
Despised, song Xintong immediately frowned, "they all touched, how can I not touch?"
