The few people on the boat did not eat well and the food on the table was quickly cleared out.

After dinner, they saw that it was still very lively outside. Four bodyguards, two at the back and two at the sides, surrounded Jiang Baishu and his men.

It was completely dark, but the streets were brightly lit, with men, women, young and old everywhere. Lanterns of various colors were hung on both sides of the street, and all kinds of stalls were set up on the street.

Jiang Xi and his group walked along the road, their eyes almost dazzled by the sight.

Jiang Baishu is okay, as he looks like a young boy and can be seen basically everywhere. But Tie Niu, the little kid, is not so good. He is sandwiched between the adults and all he sees when he looks up are butts.

But Tie Niu was so anxious that he jumped up and down, "Uncle Xie Kui, hold me!"

He reached out to Xie Kui.

Xie Kui was also attracted by the lively scene on the street. He held Tie Niu's hand and felt him pulling, then he lowered his head.

Then he reacted and quickly put his hands through his armpits and picked up Tie Niu.

Only then did Tie Niu's vision suddenly broaden.

The child was happy now, and immediately stared at everything in front of him with wide eyes.

"Iron Bull, looks good, doesn't it?"

Jiang Baishu looked up at Tie Niu and asked with a smile.

Tie Niu looked at the night scene in front of him, his expression first showing joy, then a little stunned.

Murmured: "Brother, I feel like I have seen it in a dream!"

Jiang Baishu didn't take it seriously, but Xie Kui, who was holding Tie Niu, was stunned for a moment.

He remembered that three years ago, at the Lantern Festival night market in Qingzhou City, he happened to meet the city lord's wife and her family out for fun.

He happened to be with his three-year-old Tie Niu at the time. The whole family was in disguise and had no followers. He recognized the city lord first before he knew the identity of the woman and child in front of him.

Tie Niu was still young at that time, and I didn’t expect he could still remember it.

Tie Niu was still in a daze, while Xie Kui had a look of emotion on his face and was even a little depressed.

Yes, if it weren’t for the accident, Tie Niu’s family would still be together now.

Jiang Baishu was unaware of the two people's emotions as he was distracted by the noise on the street.

As the crowd surged, they soon arrived at a small river.

Lanterns were hung under the eaves along the streets, and when I looked down, I saw colorful lanterns floating on the river, and the flames lit up the river.

Jiang Baishu pulled Tieniu, bringing both Tieniu and Xie Kui back to their senses.

Tie Niu turned his head and his bright black eyes suddenly widened.

The hand holding Xie Kui's neck shook, "Uncle Xie Kui, look, I want to fly a lantern too!"

Those who release lanterns by the river are little girls who come with their families, or young couples.

This time Tie Niu didn't want Xie Kui to hold him anymore, he twisted his body and climbed down from Xie Kui.

Then, holding Jiang Baishu's hand, the two little brothers plunged into the crowd.

Several bodyguards quickly followed.

Jiang Baishu and Tieniu were bothering me, so I had to take them to buy lanterns.

Someone was accompanying Jiang Baishu and the others, and Jiang Xi was walking slowly behind them.

Zhao had lived for several decades. If she had not fled famine to Yunzhou City, she would probably never have set foot out of the county town in her life. Now she never expected that she could take a boat and come to this capital city that she had only heard of from others.

After walking down the whole street, Zhao couldn't see everything and felt dazzled.

Jiang Xi reminded: "Mom, do you want to buy anything?"

Zhao also worked at home, so she received three taels of silver every month. She rarely went out, and Jiang Xi arranged all the food and daily necessities for the family.

I only give some pocket money to the younger generation at home occasionally.

Since the money was hardly spent, although Zhao received the monthly salary, she did not feel much about it.

When she went out this time, she was still hesitant about whether to bring money, but Jiang Xi persuaded her to take all the silver with her.

Zhao kept saving and now has over a hundred taels of silver on her.

Before leaving, Jiang Xi took Zhao to exchange all the silver for silver notes that were easy to carry, leaving only a dozen taels of silver on him.

Walking along the road, the small stalls on both sides sell a variety of food, daily necessities, and wearables, which make people eager to try them.

If Jiang Xi hadn't reminded her, Zhao would have just been watching. It was only after Jiang Xi reminded her that she remembered that she had money and could buy whatever she wanted.

Zhao was immediately attracted. She walked to a stall that sold beads, which every girl would not like.

Zhao looked at the various beads in front of her, then looked at Jiang Xi beside her and smiled, "Ali, you have one, mother will buy it for you!"

When saying this, Zhao felt filled with emotion.

This is the first time she has bought a gift for Jiang Xi since her daughter grew up.

In the past, having enough food and warm clothes was a luxury. Although Zhao became rich later, she was not a considerate person and never thought of buying such fancy things for her family.

The inner instinct is to ensure that the family members have enough food and clothing, and a higher level is to ensure that everyone can eat better.

With some guidance from Jiang Xi, she looked at the beautiful beads in front of her and finally realized that she should dress up her daughter.

Jiang Xi did not reject Zhao's sudden maternal love and picked a string of agate.

Jiang Xi also picked a hairpin for Zhao.

Zhao seldom wore bright things, and always wore gray clothes. If bright clothes were made for her, she would give them to Jiang Chunhua instead of wearing them herself.

For this, Jiang Chunhua talked about her several times.

He is really a person who doesn't know how to enjoy his blessings.

Here, the mother and daughter were shopping, and Jiang Youli, Jiang Baishu and their group also bought a lot of things.

Jiang Xi was just about to buy some dried mutton when another male escort came running over anxiously.

"Miss Jiang, Young Master Jiang and the others..."

The male escort looked embarrassed and a little anxious, "Go and take a look!"

If we don't go now, all the money the two young masters brought will be spent.

Jiang Xi had no choice but to give up buying it for the time being, and took Zhao and followed the male escort towards a stall not far away.

"Abo, what are you doing?"

As I got closer, I saw Tie Niu holding ten rings in his hand and paying the stall owner.

Jiang Baishu followed behind him, also ready to make a move.

Tie Niu turned around and said to Xie Kui and the others beside him generously, "Uncle Xie Kui, you guys come and play too. I'll treat you tonight."

The stall owner smiled so hard that his teeth were showing.

"As long as you can catch this stone tiger, you can take it!"

The two female escorts were already holding two rabbit cages, some calligraphy and paintings, and some small toys in their hands. It was unknown how many traps Jiang Baishu and Tie Niu had set here.

Jiang Xi put one hand on Jiang Baishu's shoulder.

Jiang Baishu realized it belatedly and turned back with a smile on his face, full of interest.
