The Reborn Sidekick Rejected The Male Lead-Chapter 360 - 350: Meeting Gao Qing
Chapter 360: Chapter 350: Meeting Gao Qing
The next morning, Jiang Nanzhou had already phoned Shen Mu and the others to arrange a meeting place, and Lu Jingqiu, after eating an egg, left the house with Jiang Nanzhou.
At the intersection on East Street were Shen Mu, Wang Xiuya, Shen Ting, and Yuxian.
"Sister-in-law, over here."
"Xiuya, you guys got here pretty fast."
"We just arrived ourselves, let’s go, they say the temple fair is bustling with people."
Shen Ting was riding a bicycle with Yuxian sitting on the front crossbar, laughing, "Let’s hurry over, we might catch the early market."
Lu Jingqiu laughed, "Didn’t you guys have breakfast?" frёeweɓηovel.coɱ
Wang Xiuya said, "No, I know there’s a place that sells tasty soup dumplings over there, we all saved room in our stomachs."
"I just had an egg this morning, let’s go."
"Come on, I’ll show you what a real Capital City temple fair is like."
The group of six rode their bikes and in about twenty minutes, arrived on a bustling street.
Lu Jingqiu hadn’t even arrived when she heard the sound of drumming.
She didn’t expect there to be a performance.
Stilt walkers, lion dancers, drummers, weaving through the streets.
After watching for a while, they began to stroll around and eat.
Lu Jingqiu started with two soup dumplings, a ma ball, and later followed Yuxian and had a candied haw.
"Sister-in-law, look how pretty these paper cuttings are."
"Xiuya, this can be put up for collection."
"Forget collecting, I prefer collecting postage stamps."
Lu Jingqiu was surprised, "You collect stamps? Me too, I’ve collected two books worth."
Wang Xiuya pulled her and said, "Wow, that many? I only have one or two from each edition. I even had Ah Mu find me a Red Blue Star one recently. Do you have it?"
Lu Jingqiu shook her head, "I only started collecting in the past two years, mostly recent ones, not many from before. That one of yours is great, make sure you keep it safe."
In fact, Lu Jingqiu hadn’t paid much attention to stamps in her previous life and didn’t know which ones were valuable, but she knew that stamps were definitely worth something. So since she returned to West City, she started collecting stamps quietly.
She knew the older they were, the more valuable, so Wang Xiuya’s stamp would probably be worth something in the future.
"I just enjoy it, I like the patterns on them." Speaking of which, she turned her head to Shen Mu, "Ah Mu, does your friend have any others? Help me get two more, will you?"
Shen Mu, probably tired of being pestered by Wang Xiuya before, hurriedly said, "No more, that last one, I really had to persuade him to sell to me."
Wang Xiuya caught on to something and quickly said, "Oh, right, I can’t have Brother Mu spend both money and effort for me. There’s a shadow puppet show ahead, I’ll treat you."
"No need, no need."
"Come on, let’s at least go have a look."
Saying this, she pushed and pulled Shen Mu forward.
Lu Jingqiu laughed behind them, "Nanzhou, what do you think, does Ah Mu actually like Xiuya or not?"
Jiang Nanzhou shook his head, "Can’t tell, why, thinking of playing matchmaker?"
Lu Jingqiu shook her head, "Just seems like they get along well. I wonder if there’s something there."
Suddenly, Shen Ting, who was following, came up and said, "Sister-in-law, you have a sharp eye. Before, when I asked my brother to get me some comic books, he was reluctant. But when Sister Xiuya called, despite his impatient face, he still agreed reluctantly. You don’t know how hard he actually worked to find them for Sister Xiuya."
Jiang Nanzhou laughed, "How do you know this?"
Shen Ting snorted lightly, "I just do. Brother, let’s go watch the shadow puppet show."
Jiang Nanzhou shook his head, "Too many people, Yuxian and I will watch your sister-in-law, you guys go ahead, we’ll rest at the corner ahead and regroup there soon."
"Sure thing, Yuxian, stick with your uncle and aunt, don’t wander off."
The moment Shen Ting came in, he pulled Yuxian to watch the lion dance and the monkey show.
Yuxian, the little guy, nearly ran out of breath, watching his young uncle running faster than the monkeys, he muttered, "Uncle, Aunt, Uncle runs around more than I do."
Jiang Nanzhou laughed and ruffled the little guy’s hair, saying, "He’s doing pretty well today, we won’t blame him, tired? Let’s go sit ahead for a bit."
"Great, I’m holding Aunt’s hand."
Lu Jingqiu laughed, holding his hand and pointing ahead with her chin, "There are chestnuts being roasted over there, do you want some, Yuxian?"
"Yes, chestnuts! And sunflower seeds too."
Jiang Nanzhou said, "Alright, we’ll buy both."
Lu Jingqiu said, "And popcorn. Yuxian, let’s be little foodies today, what’s a play compared to delicious treats?"
Jiang Nanzhou, not missing the sour note in his wife’s words, said helplessly, "It can’t be helped, it’s too crowded today, many gathered to watch the play, and after the snow, the roads are slippery."
