Chapter 164 Night Market
Chapter 164 Night Market
Su Rutang hugged Taohua with one hand and waved with the other.
"Rong Rui, come here."
Rong Rui ran over happily, "Aunt Tang."
Su Rutang hugged Rong Rui, and Rong Rui was stunned. Aunt Tang's embrace was so warm, as warm as my mother's embrace.
Otherwise...why do Taohua and Shangqi like each other so much?
Su Rutang felt Rong Rui's discomfort in his arms, but still didn't let him go.
"My Rong Rui has grown taller. He's also darker."
Rong Rui nestled in Su Rutang's arms, sobbing softly, "Aunt Tang."
"what happened?"
Su Rutang patted him on the back gently.
"Are mother's embrace the same as Aunt Tang's embrace? I never knew what mother's embrace was like?" Perhaps because I didn't know before, there was no comparison, and when I got attention, I wanted more.
Rong Rui wants to know what his mother’s arms feel like?
"You should treat Aunt Tang as your mother." Su Rutang hugged Rong Rui, "Aunt Tang can adopt you as her adopted son."
Rong Rui turned his head and secretly glanced at Taohua.
"No. Zhou Wenyi and the others around Aunt Tang are not good."
"Can I take you to the night market tonight?" Su Rutang did not ask Rong Rui again.
"Okay." Taohua shouted first.
"Then I want to talk to Brother Shangqi and ask him to go to the night market with us tonight, okay?"
"Let's go with Brother Shangqi tomorrow."
Su Rutang hugged Taohua.
Chuitangyuan is very lively at night.
Taohua and Rongrui accompanied Su Rutang for dinner, and the small kitchen prepared a table of their favorite meals.
Taohua’s belly is round because of all the food she eats.
I am full.
She climbed onto Su Rutang's lap and let Su Rutang rub her belly again and again. "Mom, my belly is so round."
"Our Taohua's belly is so round."
"whee."
Taohua's face was chubby, and her crescent eyes narrowed when she smiled. Her little silver teeth were snow-white, and her pair of little hands like lotus roots were touching her belly.
"Mom. I want to wear a pink dress."
"Chunxi, go get the new clothes for Taohua. Bring Rongrui's clothes as well, and let Rongrui change into the new clothes."
"Yes."
Chunxi went to get new clothes.
Taohua and Rongrui both put on new clothes, and the autumn night was also very cool.
The group got on the carriage.
Zhou Chengru saw Su Rutang get on the carriage from the door. Just as he was about to walk over, he saw the carriage driving away.
"Second Master." The doorman waited on the side.
"Where is Second Grandma going?"
"Take Miss Taohua to the night market." The doormen all knew that Su Rutang liked Miss Taohua.
"Taohua? Is that the little beggar?"
Zhou Chengru frowned, "Didn't he send him away?"
"Sometimes they would take him in to stay for a day or two."
Zhou Chengru felt relieved when he heard that they would only bring him back to stay for a day or two.
"Second Master, shall we go to the night market?"
"go."
Zhou Chengru wanted to meet the prince and princess of Nanli Kingdom at the night market, so he naturally would not miss any opportunity to go to the night market.
Wanruo ran out from inside.
"Second Master, I'm bored staying in the mansion. Can you take me to the night market?" Wan Ruo smiled flatteringly, "I stayed in Xiliang Kingdom for two years and met a nobleman from Nanli Kingdom."
Zhou Chengru looked very cold.
"You mean to say that among your patrons there are men from Xiliang and Nanli?"
"Second Master, I..."
"Hmph. Shameless." Zhou Chengru flicked his sleeves coldly and left.
*
The night market is very lively.
Various exotic vendors were hawking their wares. The customs and practices of Li Kingdom and Da Zhou were similar, so the night market was mostly filled with things from Nanli Kingdom and Xiliang Kingdom.
Hong Leng and Dong Xiang mainly kept an eye on the two children.
Chunxi and Xia An also followed Su Rutang.
"Chunxi, you guys should keep an eye on Taohua and Rongrui. These two kids are going out to play for the first time, and they want to see everything."
"The servant is watching."
"Mom, there's a juggling show going on here." Taohua ran over quickly.
Rong Rui followed closely behind.
"Taohua, don't run. There are so many people here, be careful not to get bumped into." Su Rutang hurriedly followed.
Someone was holding a fire ring and asking a teenage boy to keep crawling through it. As the fire on the fire ring grew bigger and bigger, the little boy seemed very scared and didn't dare to crawl in.
"Drill. Drill quickly."
Someone walked around the field holding a small hat.
The onlookers threw coins.
When she got to Taohua, she hesitated for a moment. "If I give you money, can you let the little brother not jump through the fire hoop?"
"What are you talking about, little girl? You can't get any money if you don't jump into the fire ring."
"Yes, we want to watch the fire ring."
"This is not a good place for you, little girl."
"Go back to your mother."
……
Everyone teased Taohua and asked the little boy to quickly go through the fire ring.
Su Rutang stood behind the peach blossoms.
He glanced around coldly and saw that the people who were going through the fire circle seemed to be wearing the clothes of the Southern Li Kingdom.
Taohua pursed her lips and glared at those people fiercely.
"I won't go back."
"Little girl, you have quite a temper."
Su Rutang said coldly:
"I see you have quite a bad temper."
When the man saw Su Rutang in a brocade dress and four maids following behind her, he knew that they were the family members of a powerful family, and he smiled and said:
"Powerful people use their power to bully others. If you don't come here to watch me go through the fire ring, do you want to watch me go through it?"
Xia An stepped forward and slapped him.
"Since you can't speak, cut your mouth off."
The man who was slapped by Xia An had a look of resentment in his eyes, but he didn't dare to say anything. He just secretly glanced at Tao Hua and quietly stepped back a few steps.
Rong Rui approached Su Rutang and whispered:
"Aunt Tang, those people are so weird."
"Which people?"
"The person who went through the fire ring and the person who was beaten by Sister Xia An just now." Rong Rui was naturally sensitive to danger, and he smelled a dangerous atmosphere from those people.
Su Rutang looked at the little boy who was jumping through the fire ring thoughtfully.
The little boy thanked the peach blossoms.
Su Rutang picked up Taohua and covered her ears with his hands, "Let's go."
Xia An threw down a few copper coins.
"Little girl."
The people behind were chasing and shouting, and Su Rutang and the others were walking very fast.
Next step.
Mostly visiting small stalls.
Su Rutang bought a lot of things, for Taohua, Rongrui, Su Yuxuan and Shangqi.
A little boy wearing a tiger mask appeared not far away.
Waved to the peach blossoms from the crowd.
Taohua took a look and smiled with her eyes narrowed.
"elder brother."
The little tiger mask waved again and made a shushing gesture. He hid in the crowd, and only Taohua could see him.
Taohua nodded.
"Mom, I want a candy man." Taohua pointed at the candy man next to her, "I want a candy man with a little tiger painted on it."
"Rong Rui, what kind of candy do you want?"
Rong Rui shook his head, "Aunt Tang, I can do anything."
"Then let's have a candy figure of a little white rabbit." Taohua wanted both the little white rabbit and the little tiger, and she really wanted the mask on Shangqi's face.
"Okay. I'll buy you two candy figures."
Su Rutang went over and asked for two sugar men.
At this moment.
Suddenly a lot of people rushed over and there was a commotion in the crowd.
Su Rutang turned around and took a look.
Where are Taohua and Rongrui?
"Peach Blossom."
"Rong Rui."
……
The crowd nearby squeezed over.
The handsome face of the young man appeared in front of Su Rutang, "You are Zhou Chengru's wife? Su Rutang?"
Su Rutang didn't want to talk to the boy any more.
Cold voice:
"Step aside."
"I'll move aside. Can you find that little peach blossom?" The ruby headband on the boy's head sparkled.
Su Rutang's restless heart was about to get out of control. She looked at the boy coldly. She grabbed his collar and said, "The prince of Nanli Kingdom, right?"
"You'd better have nothing to do with my daughter's disappearance, otherwise I will make sure you are buried with her."
