Becoming a stepmother of three children gives me space

Chapter 108 Temple Fair, Men in Black

On March 3rd in Dazhai, you have to work hard to make a living. If you work hard, you will have a good life. After you finish your work, you can enjoy the leisure time.

Lunar March 3rd,

It is a day for visiting relatives and friends, and for unmarried men and women to travel together.

Before dawn in the morning, Niuniu was pulled out of Xiao Yunxi's bed. She slurped her saliva and rubbed her sleepy eyes with her chubby little hands.

"mother....."

"Niuniu, wake up! Mommy is going to take you to the temple fair!"

When the child heard that they were going to a temple fair, he instantly became energetic, put on his clothes, and instantly turned into a fat ball. He put on a hat and a scarf, leaving only his two big eyes exposed.

Huatang Temple, the first temple in the northwest, is nestled against the mountains and surrounded by water. Temple fairs are held every year on the first day of the Lunar New Year, the Lantern Festival, the second day of the second month, and the third day of the third month.

The temple is backed by the largest lake in Northwest China, which is the largest rice producing area in Northwest China. Its vegetarian meals are well-known far and wide.

The official road to the county town was filled with people going to the temple fair. Xiao Yunxi was quite curious.

In my previous life, I grew up in an orphanage, joined the army, and went abroad. I have never participated in a temple fair. Unfamiliar experiences always arouse people's curiosity.

There was a stove burning in the carriage, making it warm. On the small table were prepared snacks, popcorn, French fries, and hot milk tea.

Time passed quickly while we ate and played poker, but the road was too bumpy and my butt was stiff. The machine tools in the laboratory have been updated to the third generation, and they are fully capable of manufacturing bearings and springs.

The material requirements for the spring are high, it needs to be carbon steel, which is a kind of alloy. The iron lump that Zhou Jin brought back obviously did not meet the requirements.

The temple fair is located on both sides of the road leading to the temple, extending all the way to the large platform in front of the temple, which is full of small vendors.

As soon as Niuniu got off the carriage, she was mesmerized by the candy figurines and could not walk.

Make sugar figures,

The syrup made from malt can be blown, pinched and pulled to instantly form an animal shape.

Whether in the countryside or in the city, whenever a candy figurine stall appears on the streets, it will be surrounded by a group of children.

"Niuniu wants to eat? Grandma will buy it for you."

Aunt Zhou took out a copper coin and handed it to the candy figurine maker, asking for 5 candy figurines.

"Yunxi, I'm going to the temple to fulfill my vow first. You guys go shopping."

My daughter-in-law Li Lanhua is pregnant. She came here to fulfill a vow and hurried to the temple. There are a lot of people here today, so we have to hurry.

Holding the finished sugar man, I eat it while walking around, and my mouth feels sweet.

There are many foods to eat at the temple fair. In addition to snacks, there are also pork and chicken for sale. The temperature is low and the meat can be kept for a long time. Many people gather around to buy them.

There were people fishing by the lake. They put their catch in a large wooden basin and carried it to the road to sell. The price was ridiculously cheap, only two cents per pound, but few people came.

What the people lack is oil and water, and fish is not on their regular menu.

Xiao Yunxi looked at the 20-jin-heavy grass carp, the 10-jin-heavy silver carp, and the plump crucian carp, and exclaimed that it was a waste of natural resources.

The fishmonger hadn't had any business for a long time and was getting anxious. Seeing her staring at him and wanting to sell something, he picked up a big fat fish and handed it to her without fear of the cold.

"Madam, are you buying one?"

The fish is very energetic, swinging its tail and splashing water everywhere.

"This year's first net is all here. I'll keep whichever one you want. You can come back and get it after you finish shopping. If it's too much trouble for you, Madam, I can slaughter it for you."

Finally a customer came to the store, and the boss didn't want to let him go.

He was a villager from nearby. He would go fishing whenever he had free time to supplement his family income. He wanted to take advantage of the temple fair to earn some money to supplement his family income, but he was unexpectedly treated coldly.

Tangjia Village is next to a river, a very small river, and the fish and shrimp in it are not big. Xiao Yunxi hasn't encountered fish of this size for a long time.

"We'll be heading back at noon. I'll take all the fish you can catch, but you have to help us deliver them."

The boss was delighted:

"Where to send it?"

"Dongshan Town, Tangjia Village."

"No problem! But you have to pay a deposit."

By noon he could still pull two nets and earn two taels of silver per trip. He was not afraid even if the profit went to the horizon.

Xiao Yunxi took out one or two taels of silver as a deposit and continued to visit the temple fair. Zhou Jin, who was walking at the end, suddenly looked behind him and found nothing unusual, so he kept up with her.

"Sir, it seems he has discovered us?"

Hidden place,

The two men in black with their faces covered frowned. They felt that Zhou Jin's gaze was sharp and he didn't look like an ordinary person.

"Maybe it's because he's been on the battlefield?"

They investigated Xiao Yunxi's background. Her husband Tang Huaiming had participated in the Battle of Beishengguan. He probably went to the battlefield and killed enemies, so he was very talented.

"Instruct them to evacuate immediately after capturing Xiao Yunxi. Don't return to the capital, return directly to the capital."

"Sir, Butler Luo..."

"Only the dead can keep secrets."

A gust of wind blew, bringing with it a biting chill.
