There is Room for Rebirth in the 1950’s

Vol 2 Chapter 320: Back to City S

Back in City S, it was getting darker. The military vehicle took them directly back to the hotel.

Leave the nanny and aunt to take care of falling asleep safely. A group of people tasted many delicacies on the small passenger ship. After dinner, everyone was not in a hurry to go back, strolling on the street, enjoying the beautiful scenery.

Shili foreign market is still prosperous. Boats, large and small, on the Dapu River, workers on the wharf, tourists strolling on the Bund, sentries patrolling the streets, clanging trams, and tricycles passing halfway, these are in rows on the opposite side. Under the lights outside the building complex of the world, the night of this city is very vivid.

Mrs. Cheng had been guarding the child a few days ago, and it is difficult to make a trip tonight. She pulled Zhou Jiao all the way, telling the story of her and her eldest sister Gu Mingzhu, who had traveled the Dapu River many times during the girl season.

The old lady's voice echoed in Zhou Jiao's ears. She looked at the scenery before her eyes, feeling very melancholy. I don’t know how many generations of buildings have witnessed the ebb and flow of the tides, and how many people’s joys and sorrows have been taken away by the vast Dapu River.

The next day, everyone agreed to visit the Baixiang City God Temple first. When I came to City S, I didn't go to the Chenghuang Temple to taste the snacks. I always felt regretful to bring some specialties back.

After the Lantern Festival, the Baixiang Chenghuang Temple Market has not faded, and there is a crowd of people everywhere.

There are various novelties on the several toy stalls in the square in front of the temple and beside the Jiuqu Bridge. For example, two cents can be seen in foreign films, colorful facial masks, vivid wooden swords, slingshot bows, bells, cheap bones... many children are reluctant to leave.

The noise of laughter coming from the teahouse, and the scent that hit the tip of the nose, made people involuntarily speed up their pace to find the source of the scent.

Mrs. Cheng revisited her old place and knew all kinds of food well. Ignoring the long lines in front of the various restaurants, she went in from the Changxing Building to the second floor lounge and ordered several kinds of Xiaolongbao such as crab noodles for breakfast.

After breakfast, everyone went out. The old lady began to softly introduce several special snacks around, such as ribs rice cake, chicken and duck blood soup, small wine dumplings and so on.

The old lady Cheng explained in detail along the way. After seeing Zhang Guoqing and Zhou Jiao get a general understanding, she began to take Cheng Ruzhu and Lin Lishan to buy gifts from Beijing, leaving the couple to go shopping.

Zhang Guoqing and Zhou Jiao did not object either. They knew that the old lady had been to the Chenghuang Temple many times and had little interest in revisiting the old place. In addition to buying some specialty products, they are also anxious to go back to take care of their children. Maybe the old lady thought they had something important to deal with, so she took everyone away.

Zhang Guoqing and his wife looked at each other and smiled. Today's Chenghuang Temple is more antique than later generations, and they are not interested. It's the original food that makes them happy. Considering that they are going to visit old book stalls on Fuzhou Road today, the two started shopping along the street.

In addition to special snacks and novel toys, they are most interested in Yuyuan's long-established Lijiaotang. As for dim sum and pastries, you can find everything in the No. 1 Food Mall on Nanjing Road.

Seeing that it was almost noon, the couple hurried to Fuzhou Road with big bags and small bags. They have long liked the legend of this four-way street.

As soon as he got on the tricycle, the coachman went to Fuzhou Road to buy books and ink, and he laughed and said that no one didn't know.

The closer you are to Fuzhou Road, the more you can feel that this street is not inferior to Nanjing Road. In the past along the street, in addition to many specialty bookstores and cultural goods specialty stores, there are also large pharmacies and restaurants everywhere.

When they arrived at the destination, they saw many large and small bookstores and stationery stores. The couple happily raised their hands to celebrate. Before he could say more, the two entered an old bookstore and acted separately. According to the agreement, Zhang Guoqing was responsible for selecting old domestic ancient books, and Zhou Jiao ran to find foreign magazines and original masterpieces.

The couple who are obsessed with books have forgotten the time.

After a long time, standing in front of the last used bookstore, Zhang Guoqing touched his hungry stomach, looked at the time, and looked at his excited wife with a wry smile.

After Zhang Guoqing asked the store to take care of several items in his hand, he dragged Zhou Jiao to find a snack bar nearby.

After the couple ordered the specialty dishes in the store, Zhang Guoqing looked at Zhou Jiao who was rubbing her waist and shook her head helplessly. Now he really doesn't plan to go shopping anymore, he should pick some stationery and go back.

Zhou Jiao also had the same intention. Except that it's almost time to buy, she will start to worry about the child.

At the end of today's trip, the couple returned to the hotel with their things in their arms. As soon as I entered the old lady's room, they saw the child sleeping comfortably with eyes closed in the old lady's arms, and the two of them immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

Old Mrs. Cheng was relieved to see them, smiled and shook her head, "It's okay. The child just ate and fell asleep. Except at night, he doesn't make trouble during the day, as long as someone is with him. Very well-behaved."

Zhang Guoqing washed his hands and went forward to take the child, and found that his mother-in-law and Cheng Ruzhu had not yet returned. He asked curiously: "Auntie, where are my mother and sister-in-law?"

Old Mrs. Cheng shook her head and smiled, "They can go shopping better than you. They have had lunch and haven't come back yet. While the child is asleep, you should hurry up and go to the streets to see what you want to take back?"

Zhang Guoqing saw that Zhou Jiao was starting to move again~www.novelmtl.com~ and knew that she had slowed down and was thinking about shopping. I thought that I would accompany her to the aquatic product store tomorrow morning, maybe I would accompany her to find out where there are hairy crabs. Besides, he was too embarrassed to leave the child to the old lady all day, just to rest first.

Zhang Guoqing shook his head and said to the old lady: "We are leaving tomorrow. You didn't go to the street well this time, let Jiaojiao go out with you. I happened to sleep with the child for a while."

After speaking, he saw the old lady hesitating, and immediately got up and returned to the room with the child in his arms. It is estimated that the ink will not even come back to dinner.

The old lady Cheng smiled and shook her head when she saw him leaving. She considered that the babysitter beside her was thinking about going to Huaihaijiu these days, so she asked Xiao Chen by her to go with her. Let them buy some favorite gifts. As for her own refusal of Xiao Chen to follow, she and Zhou Jiao were walking around without intending to go far.

Zhou Jiao asked Xiao Chen and the others to go there soon, it was no problem to have her with the old lady. They are near the No. 1 Department Store, these places are safe, and there is no need to bring order soldiers around.

Watching them leave, Zhou Jiao held Mrs. Cheng, and the two of them spoke softly and affectionately.

The old lady has enough life experience, and during this period of time she often pointed her attention to getting along with others. At this time, she instructed Zhou Jiao to bring the gifts to her in-laws as not as expensive as possible. Her elders are used to saving money, and they may not be happy to receive them. Listening to her careful analysis, Zhou Jiao smiled and nodded. She knew that the other party must have noticed that Lin Lishan didn't understand the sophistication of human beings, and worried that she would not be responsible for teaching her mother.

The two followed the shops along the street. Without Zhang Guoqing by her side, she would not dare to buy randomly, worrying that she could not move. They go to the street purely to watch the excitement, and stop to take a look at something they like.

Zhang Guoqing didn't see everyone coming back one after another until dinner time. I saw everyone carrying large and small bags, even the order soldiers and aunts bought a lot.
