Chapter 170 Mr. Zhou, an ordinary citizen(1/2)
It's half past eight in the morning.
After driving for nearly an hour, the family of four finally arrived at Xishan Mountain in Yangcheng. Their destination was the Badachu Temple Fair on Xishan Mountain.
When we came here, the road was smooth and there weren't many cars on the road, so Zhou Ziwu naturally felt that there wouldn't be too many people here.
However, when he arrived, there were no parking spaces in the parking lot.
After driving in circles for almost ten minutes, he finally found an empty seat. Zhou Ziwu quickly took advantage of the opportunity and parked the car.
"We got up very early and rushed to a late gathering."
Looking around and seeing the license plates from all over the world hanging on the cars around him, Zhou Ziwu sighed.
Zhang Suyue handed the mask to him and his daughter-in-law and said, "Wear this so no one will find out."
Zhou Ziwu took the mask and said with a smile while putting it on: "Why do you feel like we two are like fugitives, sneaking around a temple fair?"
Zhang Suyue punched him and said angrily: "You're just celebrating the New Year, you just say depressing words."
Chu Qingqiu covered her mouth and snickered, and the unhappiness she felt just now disappeared with the wind.
We went up the mountain and came to Badachu Park, where the temple fair had already begun.
The festive atmosphere here is quite strong, with tens of thousands of red lanterns of various types hanging on the treetops or high above the roads.
On the roadside, all kinds of snacks are tempting. In addition, there are many performers wearing old "shabby hats and coats" standing on the roadside selling food. Suddenly, people have a feeling of traveling through time and space.
Although Zhou Ziwu had stayed in Yangcheng for four years before because of schooling, he would go home every Spring Festival, so this temple fair was also his first time here.
Looking at the lively crowd and smelling the aroma of food floating in the air, he pulled Chu Dahu's little hand and was about to find an excuse to go shopping with her alone, but was suddenly stopped by Zhang Suyue.
"Wait a minute, let's go to the temple together first, and then you two can go shopping."
He was not interested in what the monks in the temple had to see. "Mom, you and Dad can go, we will wait for you here."
"No, you two have to go!"
Zhang Suyue glared and showed her feminine power.
Zhou Ziwu is a little strange. Growing up, he never heard that his mother is religious?
Why is this so persistent?
"Go ahead and burn some incense. It won't take long." Zhou Wenshan also advised.
Zhou Ziwu glanced at his father, and it seemed that his father knew something. However, his father did not seem to have any intention of telling him, and chose to ignore the look he gave him.
He had no choice but to look at Chu Dahu and keep up with his mother.
The reason why the Badachu Park Temple Fair is called this is because there are eight ancient temples on the west mountain.
Climbing up the stairs, Zhou Ziwu held Chu Dahu's hand and followed his mother all the way to Xiangjie Temple.
In front of the Three Holy Temples.
Zhang Suyue was explaining something to the young couple.
After listening to his mother's words, Zhou Ziwu was speechless and amused, "Mom, it's been less than a year since we received the certificate. Do we have to come and ask the Bodhisattva for a child now?"
He really didn't expect that his mother would be so obsessed with having a grandson. Wouldn't she have made up her mind when she was still in Shanghai?
Zhang Suyue said: "You're already here, just go in quickly. In a moment you will..."
"well."
After listening to the precautions explained by his mother, Zhou Ziwu had only one thought: Mom was indeed well prepared.
Shaking his head helplessly, he pulled Chu Dahu, who was blushing, and they entered the hall together.
After a while, Zhou Ziwu came out with a bamboo stick in his hand.
"Mom, what does this mean?"
With that said, he handed the bamboo stick to his mother.
Zhang Suyue took a closer look and saw four sentences written on it:
[Don’t say that I am so poor now. The boy will have his own destiny. He will grow up one after another, and he can be called an immortal in the world.]
She couldn't understand it either, so she led the young couple to the signing place.
"Congratulations to the two donors. The meaning of these four sentences is, don't worry about not having children now. Your wish for children will be successfully fulfilled, and it is very likely that there will be two. When you two grow old, you will also enjoy the blessing of children and grandchildren.
"
The master's words made Zhang Suyue smile happily and promised the master that if it really came true in the future, he would be grateful.
After leaving Xiangjie Temple, Zhang Suyue said with a smile: "Okay, you two go, your dad and I will also go shopping, and we will contact you via mobile phone then."
After saying that, she took Zhou Wenshan's hand and the two walked away together.
Seeing the two elders leaving, Zhou Ziwu turned his head and looked at Chu Dahu's profile. Because he was wearing a mask, he didn't know what the expression on her face was.
However, the delicate pink ears she exposed were so red and cute that if she wasn't wearing a mask, Zhou Ziwu would have wanted to bite her.
Noticing his gaze, Chu Qingqiu hurriedly put her hair down behind her ears to cover her burning ears.
"Qingqiu, do you think it will come true?" Zhou Ziwu said while looking at her flat belly.
Chu Qingqiu wanted to beat him to death, but he dared to discuss this while he was still outside. Also, where were you looking with those ruthless eyes!
"Of course it won't come true, because there won't be one!" she said loudly, using her voice to cover up her shyness and nervousness.
And her shout also attracted the attention of the people around her. Chu Qingqiu was startled, and quickly pulled Zhou Zhiwu and ran away.
After running out for a while, she let go of Zhou's trotters and was panting when she heard that hateful sound again.
"I don't think it will necessarily come true, but well, two are not necessarily true, but I can still guarantee one." Looking at her scary look that wanted to eat him, Zhou Ziwu said solemnly: "I am not in good health.
Problem, if you work hard..."
Before he could finish his teasing words, his calf was kicked hard by a little foot wearing a flat shoe.
"You can have as many children as you want. It has nothing to do with me anyway."
After Chu Qingqiu finished speaking, he strode forward "angry" and didn't care about him who was pretending to be "Hey, you, hey, you" behind him.
She was afraid that if she didn't leave, she would be pissed off by this shameless man who liked to talk nonsense.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Zhou Ziwu didn’t want to pretend to be pitiful anymore and hurried to catch up.
There are so many people here, what should I do if my wife gets lost?
Catching up with her in a few steps, he quickly held her hand in his and said as if nothing was wrong: "Let's go to the temple fair."
Chu Qingqiu struggled for a while and felt that he had no intention of letting go, so she honestly let him hold her.
It's not that she didn't resist, it was just that the pig was too strong and she couldn't resist.
Returning to Badachu Park, the temple fair here is now lively.
The thirteen flower festivals were grand; on the cultural performance stage in the park, traditional folk arts such as cross talk, storytelling, and drums attracted countless people from the audience to applaud...
The young couple walked hand in hand among the crowd, attracted by these performances, and kept stopping to watch.
When the two of them passed by a stall selling candied haws, Chu Qingqiu suddenly pulled his hand.
Zhou Ziwu stopped and looked at her doubtfully, "Want to eat?"
Chu Qingqiu glanced at it and shook his head, "No, let's go."
If you want to eat candied haws, you have to take off your mask. If someone finds out, your trip to the temple fair will probably be cancelled.
Rather than lusting after food, she wanted to hang out with him for a while longer.
She took a step forward, and just as she was about to move forward, a force came from her hand.
Zhou Ziwu said in her ear: "It doesn't matter. You will take off the mask when biting and put it back on when chewing. Everyone is busy visiting the temple fair with their families, so you won't notice."
In this way, Zhou Ziwu led Chu Dahu, and Chu Dahu held a bunch of candied haws, and continued to wander around.
When biting the candied haws, she pulled down the mask to expose her mouth. After lowering her head for a while, she pulled the mask up again. Her stuffed mouth hid behind the mask, chewing the sweet and sour candied haws.
.
Fortunately, the seeds of the candied haws are removed, otherwise the risk of being discovered would increase.
“There’s a candy blower over there!”
Chu Qingqiu pointed to the stall not far away with her finger holding the candied haws, and spoke excitedly.
Zhou Ziwu looked in the direction she pointed, and found that there was indeed one. In front of the stall, there were several children with their eyes wide open, looking at the "magic" old man in front of them with admiration.
"Go over and have a look."
It was also the first time for Zhou Ziwu to see this kind of craftsman in real life, and he was equally surprised.
When they arrived at the stall, the two stood behind a group of children and their parents, watching the master craftsman wearing gloves quickly and accurately shape each beautiful candy figure.
After waiting for a while, the children took the candy figures and left happily.
"What style do you two want?" the gray-haired master asked with a smile.
Zhou Ziwu was still thinking, when Chu Qingqiu said: "Pinch a little pig and give it to him."
