Powerful ministers are husbands

The ship sailed for ten days and docked at a pier, and the guards went to purchase supplies.Pang Miao and Cao Lvwo were playing a childish game of drawing for the blind in the cabin. Cao Lv pretended to be blind with a cloth belt over his eyes, and each of them drew with a pen and paper. The content of the drawing was very simple—the appearance of the other party.Neither of them had ever tried to do this before. At the beginning, they were all drawn on the table. After teasing each other, they drew again according to the paper.

After finishing the painting, take off the cloth tape, Cao Lv takes a look...

This crooked nose and slanted eyes are no different from the demons and ghosts in the underworld.

Pang Miao tilted his head, waited for a while and saw no movement, quickly picked up two pieces of drawing paper, rolled them into a roll, wrapped them in furoshiki and put them on the bed.

"What are you doing?" Cao Lv was puzzled. In his opinion, this failed work should be destroyed as soon as possible so as not to be embarrassing.

Pang Miao could hear the anxiety in Cao Lu's tone, and said cheerfully, "When I see the light again, take a good look at our paintings, and keep them safe before then."

Cao Lv said: "I drew you like a monster, do you want to see it?"

"Look, why don't you read it? I guess I won't give in." Pang Miao held the two rolls of drawing paper like a baby, "You lost to me in the last hunting, and you don't want to win it back?"

Such a bet between lovers is a kind of fun, not to mention that they both want to wait until the day when they recover from illness as soon as possible, which is also a kind of good wish.Cao Lu stepped forward and sat beside him, putting his arms around his shoulders, "Well, we can make a deal, and then we will be able to compete with one another."

Pang Miao nodded.

At this time, there was a lively sound from outside the boat, as if they were celebrating something. Cao Lu called someone to ask what was going on outside, and the person replied that today is the day when the county where the pier is located holds a market to commemorate a certain god. In addition, many entertainment activities are added.

Wave after wave of cheers rushed into the cabin like joyous waves, deeply affecting people's hearts.

Pang Miao couldn't sit still any longer, and asked Cao Lv, "Have you been to the market?"

"I used to go there when I was in northern Xinjiang." Seeing Pang Miao's yearning expression, Cao Lv got up to get things. silk and porcelain. Oh, yes, I don’t know if you’ve seen one, where an artist plays a special little flute, and the snake in the bamboo basket in front of him twists and turns to the music, baring its fangs, but doesn’t bite.”

He returned to Pang Miao with a saber on his waist and a bulging money bag in his hand.

Pang Miao said: "The skill will take many years to develop, right? When I went to the north, I didn't dare to go too close to the border. I've never seen such a miraculous thing."

"I'll take you to see it in the future, but now..." Cao Lu took Pang Miao's hand, and gently slid his fingertips across the back of his hand, "Let's get off the boat and play for a while? I've never seen the market in the Central Plains. lively."

"Okay." Pang Miao jumped up and almost threw himself into Cao Lu's arms with excitement, "In this kind of market, besides selling various goods and doing juggling, there are also some people who set up small stalls selling some old books. Give me a few chances to find a lot of good books."

Such a reminder made Cao Lv even more interested.These days, the ink in his stomach is almost wrung dry, and it will be boring all over again, why not go ashore directly to find some travel notes, and pick up interesting readings for Pang Miao to relieve boredom?

Having made up his mind, he carefully put a mustache on Pang Miao, and then got off the boat to watch the excitement.

The road leading to the county seat is very lively. It is said that the gods have just been invited, and eight people are carrying it back to the city in a sedan chair for a parade.The common people on the side of the road include those who sprinkle flowers, some pray for blessings, and some sell things while there are many people.

Cao Lv was afraid of being crowded with people and bumping into Pang Miao, so he didn't care what other people looked at, so he protected him in his arms and walked forward.Anyway, admiration is a matter between two people, can others control it?

Pang Miao couldn't see very clearly, but just listening with his two ears made him look like a fool happily. From time to time, he pointed in a certain direction to tell Cao Lv to look at interesting things, or to buy local specialty pastries. Understand.

Cao Lu joked: "This ear is so sensitive, I won't dare to compete with you in hunting next time."

"Don't," Pang Miao was also teasing, "I gave up so quickly..." He leaned close to Cao Lu's ear and whispered, "If you have the ability, let me go to bed."

Cao Lu scratched Pang Miao's waist, "This is no good, I swore to love you well."

Pang Miao stuck out his tongue, "Then you have to hunt happily with me."

"The little one has to be ordered, please don't worry, Mr. Pang Da." Cao Lu pretended to bow his hands.

Pang Miao was amused by the deliberately flattering tone, and the two went into the city happily.The city was full of people and traffic, and the parade team had gone far away, but there were still many people staying where they were, holding something like amulets in their hands, talking happily.

They walked through the crowd and strolled on the street. Cao Lv soon found a bookstall with more than a dozen old books scattered about.

The old man couldn't understand a foreign accent, and it took him a long time to understand what Cao Lv was talking about. He looked at the book and waved his hand, "Tell my bastard nephew to take it, and prepare it yourself." If you don’t have enough things, it’s my idea. He will set up a ring stall in front, and if you want it, you can try your luck.”

Cao Lv first picked a few books from the stall, wrapped them up and paid for them.

Pang Miao asked curiously, "What do you want to buy?" Just now Cao Lv bit his ear, but no matter how dog-eared he is now, he can't compare to someone with a voice like a gnat.

"Let's play hoops, and we can get whatever treasure we get." Cao Lu was mysterious and led Pang Miao forward.

Sure enough, there was a short young man who looked casual in his clothes, holding a circle made of bamboo strips in his hand, and a dozen things were neatly arranged at his feet, including hairpins, clay figurines, vases, etc. It's crude, but most people who play this want to have fun.At this time, there was a little girl who was having fun, her rosy face looked so cute, she tried her best and threw the circle in her hand towards a plum blossom hairpin, and with a soft sound, most of the hairpin was covered in the circle.

The little girl was overjoyed, and was about to cross the boundary line to get the hairpin, but was stopped by the short man, "Hey, hey, it's not counted. I explained it clearly before. It only counts if you put them all in."

The little girl's parents didn't want their daughter to be unhappy, so they argued with him: "Why didn't I hear you say that?"

The short man put on a foolish look, "Who told you not to listen carefully? I made a mistake and wanted to blackmail someone?"

Today is a good day, the couple didn't want to waste time for this scoundrel, and took their daughter away.

The short man looked like a general who had won a battle, shaking his legs triumphantly.But this appearance in front of the battle-tested Cao Lu is really wretched and funny.

Cao Lu noticed the book in the corner at a glance, glanced at the cover, and paid the short man.

Holding the copper plate in his hand, the short man reminded: "You all understood quite well just now, it's not okay to have a small half of the corner outside."

Cao Lv looked at the small circle, obviously, even if he walked over and put the circle directly on the book, he couldn't fit it in.He pretended to sigh, and said to Pang Miao, "Hey, what should I do? What I want is bigger than the circle."

Pang Miao asked, "Is this the rule?"

The short man suddenly had a feeling that the visitor was not kind, and he racked his brains to think about why he came, and then wondered whether it was possible for these two people to be able to use black magic to make the circle bigger?So he nodded, "That's right, it's important for everyone to have fun, so setting so many rules won't spoil the fun?"

Pang Miao poked him with his elbow, and Cao Lv immediately said to the onlookers, "Fellow folks, you all heard that. Boss, you can't play tricks when the time comes."

The short man raised his head and made a please gesture.

Pang Miao took over the circle, directly tore apart the connection, and then asked Cao Lv to combine the two circles into one to form a new big circle.

The short man was dumbfounded, "You, you..."

Cao Lu ignored him, and supported Pang Miao's arm from behind, his demeanor seemed intimate, "A Miao, let's vote together, shall we?"

"Hey, I'm talking about you guys," the short man stammered for a long time, and finally he was able to speak neatly, "I don't bring such things..."

Cao Lu glanced at him, and the protest stopped abruptly.

Pang Miao tilted his head, "Are you afraid of a blind man?"

"..." The short man straightened up again, "All right, all right, you guys are ruthless, please, I won't believe it."

Cao Lv rested his chin on Pang Miao's shoulder, and whispered in his ear, "Well, in this direction, two feet away from you, the bamboo strips are light, use all your strength, come—"

Without any hesitation, Pang Miao followed Cao Lv's words, and the circle flew out with a "swoosh". Countless pairs of eyes watched the circle turn in mid-air, and then fell lightly and obliquely, raising the voice of everyone's heart. When the time comes, put the book in the set impartially.

The surrounding people applauded and cheered, the short man stared straight at his eyes, rushed to Pang Miao and shook his hands, Cao Lv narrowed his eyes.He quickly shrank his neck and jumped to the side. Although the time was short, he was sure that the man was really blind, so he couldn't help being amazed, and reluctantly handed over the book.

Cao Lu patted the cover with satisfaction. This book was written by a traveler named Zhou five or sixty years ago.This market is really just like what Pang Miao said, it is a good place to shop for treasures.

"By the way...what the hell is it?" Pang Miao was itchy by this question.

Cao Lu said solemnly: "The distribution map of this county's specialty food. Let's go, let's eat delicious food and feed you fat for nothing."

"Oh——" Pang Miao stroked his chin, "I eat and you eat, and I am fat and you also get fat. Well, you will really become fat Cao in the future."

"That's right, only you know Fatty Cao." Cao Lu smiled and hugged Pang Miao tightly.

The two ate around the city, and the guards following behind carried a lot of food boxes in their hands, and were about to return home with a full load. The road ahead was blocked by a raging crowd, and the sound of festive suona, gongs and drums was loud.

Before I could find out what happened, a colorful thing came straight to the door.

The author has something to say:

＿(:3∠)＿I saw all the comments from the girls, but the little chrysanthemum kept turning and turning and couldn’t reply.
