Chapter seven hundred and ninety-fifth: sound shock nine days

Old Lady Ye couldn't help but think in her heart, it was said that the outside world that officials in Beijing were poor for three generations, so it wouldn't be true, right?

If you look closely at the regular clothes that Ye Chunqiu was wearing, it was just a half-old Confucian shirt. When you wear them on him, you would look gentle and more elegant, but... why do you look a little poor?

It's not like the style of a high-ranking official in Beijing.

He felt a little disappointed, but instead felt that his new robe was a little dazzling and too eye-catching. He really wanted to ask the servant behind to take off all the new clothes on his body immediately!

Young Master Sun is so shabby. What new clothes do you wear?

There is not even a firecracker.

He felt emotion and empty in his heart, and kept thinking... why didn't he set off firecrackers?

After getting on the pier, I saw several carriages parked here, but there were no sedan chairs.

The old lady coughed a few times, and her expression seemed a little unnatural. Are you sitting in a carriage?

Ye Chunqiu said with a smile: "This is the most time for Zhenguo Mansion..."

The old lady also tried hard to smile a little, interrupting Ye Chunqiu with a very understanding look: "I know that the newest car is the most time-honored car, and it is impossible to choose a better one in a radius of a hundred miles. It can be said that one in a hundred miles, and it is also the best one."

Hey, Ye Chunqiu was stunned. Why is this old lady Ye like a roundworm in her belly?

Who knew that Old Lady Ye said: "That old grandson in Hedong praises his donkey like this. You have seen the lady Zhao next door. She bought a broken hairpin and told everyone that she would like to buy it."

Old Lady Ye was a little angry. It would be fine if there were no firecrackers. You were so fucking the carriage. This carriage... was only taken by the servants. Even the chief custodian in Hexi was sitting in a sedan chair, which was decent.

Ye Bai couldn't hide things in his heart, so he pulled Ye Chunqiu over and said, "I said Chunqiu, you always have to set off a few firecrackers. If others look at it, they will make jokes." He nodded, turned his eyes back, and lowered his voice, "So many relatives have come... Your eldest father is not good-looking."

Ye Chunqiu suddenly realized that it was because of this...

In fact, the capital is not as good as the local area. Many people pursue low-keyness. Even at the level of the cabinet master, they probably only have a closed door to be grand. After all, there are too many noble people in the capital. If he is a small servant, he would welcome relatives in a furious manner like a parade, what would the censors know how would they impeach?

Life in Beijing is not short, and Ye Chunqiu has become accustomed to this kind of simple life. Beijing officials are indeed different from local officials. When a small seventh-rank county magistrate goes out, someone will play a sign and beat a gong. But in the capital, you can beat a gong and try it, and you will kill him.

In other words, Old Lady Ye was disappointed, and it was not important for Old Lady Ye to be disappointed. This time, many tribe members volunteered to come with him. Old Lady Ye most of them agreed. Why did the Spring and Autumn Period make a fortune? The so-called wealth and honor do not return to their hometown is like walking in brocade clothes at night. Now Ye Chunqiu and his son are difficult to return to their hometown, so let's take you guys to Beijing to see the world. This is also a common human nature, but now it's good...

But there aren't even firecrackers...

Ye Chunqiu was also a little troubled for a while. This was Zhenguo Mansion Wharf, not in the city, and I couldn’t find a stall to buy firecrackers.

Ye Chunqiu thought about it, suddenly his eyes lit up, and he nodded seriously and said, "Yes, yes, there are firecrackers."

He hurried to Old Lady Ye and said, "It's just that the firecracker is too big, I'm afraid of shocking my father."

When he saw his grandson trying to make him happy, Old Lady Ye said domineeringly: "It's okay, I haven't seen any scenes before."

After this, Ye Chunqiu was speechless, so he called the coachman and muttered a few words in a low voice.

The coachman left quickly.

Ye Chunqiu smiled and said justice to Old Mrs. Ye: "I'm preparing for it. This is a firecracker, which is different from the ordinary."

Old Mrs. Ye leaned against the carriage and didn't plan to leave: "Oh, it's just right, let them see the world."

I waited for a long time, but there was still no movement.

Several relatives felt hot and couldn't help but mutter. Someone stepped forward and was fair to Mrs. Ye; "I said, "Second uncle, forget it, I'm still hungry."

"Yes, yes, it's just a thought."

Old Mrs. Ye squinted her eyes, looking like she was dozing off, looking like she didn't hit the wall and didn't look back.

Ye Bai had to pull Ye Chunqiu aside and whispered: "Did you ask someone to buy it temporarily? Chunqiu, there is no preparation if you don't prepare..."

Rumble...

With a cannon, a small mushroom cloud rose slowly within the high wall near the Zhenguo Mansion in the distance.

Rumble...

Another one.

The earth was trembling, as if even the air was beginning to suffocate.

Rumble...

Rumble...

The huge noise scared Ye Bai to the ground, and the others were not much better. They thought it was thunder. When they looked at the sky, they were cloudless. They all looked like earth, and their legs couldn't stand, and they all fell to the ground in panic.

After nine consecutive sounds, the smoke from the distance was still permeated, and the rising clouds actually covered the sky.

Ye Chunqiu was the most calm one. He had a calm smile on his face. He was already used to the sound of the grenade, and the foot strength on the nearby docks seemed to be indifferent. After all, it would be loud every now and then. At first, he was really panicked and scared. When he got used to it, he didn't care much.

Old Mrs. Ye had been leaning against the carriage and did not lie on the ground. At this time, she looked straight at the thick smoke rising from the ground, which was so shocked that she couldn't speak for a long time.

And... it's such a big firecracker. My God, what kind of firecracker is this?

He stroked his beard and looked at Ye Bai and the relatives who had already been scared to the ground with contempt. His face was as calm as the clouds were on his face, and he said to Ye Chunqiu: "Chunqiu, I have said I wouldn't bring them here. The country people have never seen the world before. They are afraid of anything they see, and they are useless."

He cursed a few words, and Ye Bai and several relatives got up. The shock on his face had not passed yet. Usually, Old Lady Ye scolded them for not seeing the world before, and they were dissatisfied, but today, they dared not complain in their hearts. Look at the old lady, looking calm and calm, and then look at himself...

Oh, the most important thing is... The spring and autumn are really promising. Such a loud firecracker is probably not enough to buy it without more than a dozen taels of silver.

Old Mrs. Ye still stroked his beard calmly and said, "Let's go, the food hasn't been eaten yet. Chunqiu, there are some specialties from Hexi in the back, but there are a lot of them. You'll be careful and give half of them to the Wang family tomorrow. I'll take the rest to give gifts. I know the rules in the officialdom." After that, with Ye Chunqiu's support, he got on the carriage and sat on the sofa. It was quite comfortable.

He was satisfied and relieved at once.

But... when Ye Chunqiu closed the carriage for him, he couldn't help but shake the breeches under his robe. The breeches were already wet, and the breeches were also new. The old lady felt a little distressed. There were a few taels of silver to buy Songjiang materials. What a pity. It's only been one day, but I don't know if they have seen it?
