Chapter 9 First Meeting

The temple fair was a custom handed down along Yecheng a long time ago. It is said that there was a severe drought in the south of the Yangtze River one year, and there was no harvest.At that time, Yecheng was not as prosperous as it is now. There was a small temple located in the deep mountains and old forests.One day, a farmer went deep into the mountains in search of food, and unexpectedly found this temple built at an unknown time.

After entering, I found that there was still food inside!Although it's been a while, but at this special time, it's better to have something than nothing.The food sold by the merchants in the city can even sell for the price of gold.

The honest old farmer thought that God gave him a chance to survive, so he lived in the temple, cleaned the temple every day, prayed for the victims that God would send nectar earlier, and occasionally gave money to villages that strayed into the mountains.Gradually, this temple became more and more famous, and everyone came here to pray voluntarily.

The days went on like this day by day. I don’t know whether it was the farmer’s sincerity that moved the heavens, or the heavens finally couldn’t stand the land anymore, and finally rained the long-lost rain in that spring.Everyone thinks that the gods in the temple sent them the rain, so at the beginning of February every year, when the fields need rainwater irrigation, villagers from the surrounding areas flock to pray.

Gradually, the incense in the temple became more and more prosperous, and Yecheng, the nearest neighbor, became more and more prosperous with the increase of pilgrims who came to worship Buddha.Finally, when the Xia family had just started to expand to the surrounding areas, the former town was officially renamed Yecheng by the Holy Master, and the small temple was named Pingfeng Temple, which meant peace in the world and good harvests.

The festival at the beginning of February was also valued by the emperor, so that during the temple fair, vendors engaged in business in the surrounding areas of Yecheng were not required to pay taxes; the tax of shops was reduced by [-]%.The execution of this order has led to the rapid economic development of the area centered on Yecheng.

Those few days, as long as there are some people in the family who can do some side jobs, they will go out to set up stalls. If they are lucky, they can even earn several times more than usual.

And if all kinds of shops, large and small, want to go long-term, they must earn enough money in the past few days before they can carry out the next upgrade and expansion.Survival of the fittest is the most primitive and cruel law.

The news I have inquired these days is nothing more than that someone will come to catch the pigtails during this special festival.But as the saying goes, there are no waves without wind, someone must say something to the people above, and they will come down; and something will definitely happen these days, otherwise those who chew their tongues will definitely not be kind.

After all, the merchant is in business. At this point, I don’t know how many people are staring at it, and most of them dare not stretch out their feet and stumble, but there are many people who watch it fall and make up for it.But this time I was able to get the officials from the capital here, so... I glanced at Lu Dai who was shouting excitedly in front of me, and let out a deep breath: Can I still get the merchants out of the business this time? dilemma?

The distance from Shang Mansion to Pingfeng Temple is not long, if it is normal, it only takes half a day to get there by sedan chair or carriage.But now is the busiest time, the noise of hawking on the street one after another; various street performers earning money; the crowded crowd on the street...all show the excitement of Yecheng at this time.However, Lu Dai said that he hadn't seen such a lively scene in so many years, so he insisted on going to the street to watch and play.Shang Luo couldn't resist Lu Dai, so he asked his servants to transport the things to the mountain first, and let them walk around the street.

Lu Dai looked twice at this booth and played twice at that booth.No matter when, as long as Lu Dai turned his head, he would see Shang Luo looking at her a step away from him.Although the feeling of being watched is very heartwarming, after being watched by Shang Luo for a long time, he felt uncomfortable, so he turned around and asked, "Brother, don't you want to buy something?" Zhang smiled slightly shaking his head.

Lu Dai walked forward helplessly, thinking as he walked: It's really boring for my brother to follow behind and not talk... After turning a corner, he came to a deserted alley, and found that Lu Dai, who had gone the wrong way, turned around and was about to When I left, I suddenly heard some unusual sounds in my ears.

The chivalrous factor in Lu Dai's body came into play instantly, and rushed to the entrance of the alley in three steps at a time. What he saw was a man with his back to her. The woman in front of him was about to bypass him, but was caught by the man. He raised his hand to stop Zai, looked carefully and said, "I never expected to meet such a beautiful girl in such a secluded place..." Finding that the beauty in front of her had a wrong expression, I followed her gaze and saw another girl in a suit at the entrance of the alley. The noble woman looked at him angrily, and couldn't help but twitched the corners of her mouth, pulled out a wicked smile, and said, "Tsk tsk tsk...God treats you very well. When I went out, I met two Beauty, I'm really sorry for God's hard work if I don't have a good time. Ha..." Before he could laugh, Lu Dai rushed over with a "wow" and waved a wave without mercy. The fist hits the front door.

I saw the man squatting down, covering his head with his hands, dodging the punch very funny.In the end, he rolled to the side, leaning his back against the wall, panting, and looked at Lu Dai with great fear.

Lu Dai didn't expect the man's weak body to react so quickly, and he dodged the punch.Looking at the embarrassed look of the man, she thought: She must have been lucky just now, and she must not let him run away this time!Thinking about attacking him again, but the man was like a monkey, he hugged his head and squatted down when attacking him, and jumped a few feet to get out of her attacking range when attacking him... After a few hits, he was gone. I heard him screaming "Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!"

Finally, Lu Dai ran out of strength and said, "What the hell are you! You look like a monkey..."

Regardless of whether there was dust on the ground, the man sat on the ground facing the two of them, opened the fan with a "snap", fanned the breeze, and said with a long beard: "A gentleman uses his mouth but does not move his hands. I just said a few words and did not move." Didn't make a move..."

"Who says I'm a gentleman? I'm a woman!" Lu Dai retorted aggressively.

"..." The man looked at the sky speechlessly, saw that it was getting late, and it was obvious that there was no benefit here, so he stood up and patted the dust on his body and said viciously to Lu Dai: "Today is a Because of you! You'd better not fall into my hands! Otherwise, you will be the one to look at!" After saying that, he walked towards the entrance of the alley, and when he turned the corner, he glanced at the woman who was silent from beginning to end, and slowly left up.

After the man left, Shang Luo slowly came out from the dark place. As soon as Lu Dai saw Shang Luo coming out, he went up to him and said bitterly: "Brother...you didn't come up to help me after watching the drama for so long ...If you come, that stinky man will definitely not be our opponent..."

"Okay, okay...it's my fault..." Shang Luo interrupted Lu Dai's complaint, raised his finger and pointed at the woman who had been beside him: "Before I apologize, Xi'er, should you go up and ask her?" How's the situation?"

Only then did Lu Dai come to his senses, and hurried to stand in front of the woman and asked, "Sister, are you okay?"

The woman looked at her and smiled slightly, and Lu Dai instantly felt that she was so beautiful, she had the temperament of a lady of every family, and she was as calm and calm as a veteran of the rivers and lakes.Looking up at Shang Luo, he smiled and said, "Long time no see."

Lu Dai became excited instantly, looked at the woman and then turned to look at Shang Luo: It turns out that these two people are old acquaintances, it seems that they are still childhood sweethearts?But why didn't brother go up to help just now, but just watched?What is the relationship between these two people?

Shang Luo saw that Lu Dai's complexion changed like a magic trick, and changed again and again, his gaze was still back and forth with the woman.Knowing that it was the woman made her think a lot.He stepped forward and knocked her on the head: "I really don't know what you girl is thinking, let me introduce you, this woman's surname is Xia, her name is Xu, Liu Xu's Xu..." Glancing at Xia Xu, she added: " Xia Fan's sister."

"Xia Fan's...sister?" Lu Dai was stunned.
