854: C854 Zhang Yan's Father

C854 Zhang Yan's Father

After the three of them bought their things, they walked onto another road. On this road, most of them were selling food and things to use. However, it seemed like there were a lot of people here who were buying things.

"These people don't seem to be doing particularly well in business?" Qian Bin sighed as he saw that no one had come to a stop.

"It's not like that." Zhang Yan pulled Qian Bin to one of the stalls. "The food here isn't for sale. It's for everyone." At this time, everyone had just finished eating, so no one came to eat. "

After saying that, Zhang Yan even gave Qian Bin and Zhou Zhuo each a small piece of walnut. "Here, have a taste. My third uncle's cooking skills aren't bad." He used to open a pastry shop in the town, so he only came back to make cakes for everyone to eat during the new year. "

Zhou Zhuo followed Zhang Yan's voice, his eyes slowly turning to a simple and honest man beside him. The man also revealed a simple and honest smile as he looked at Zhou Zhuo.

"It's rare for Yanzi to bring a friend back for the new year. You guys can eat whatever you want. After the new year is over, I'll make some food for you guys to eat."

Just as the man finished speaking, Zhang Yan happily thanked him, "Thank you, Third Uncle."

Zhou Zhuo wanted to refuse, but Zhang Yan had already said so he could only smile and say, "Thank you." I wish you a prosperous business. "

After bidding farewell to Zhang Yan's Third Uncle, the three of them started walking back. Along the way, Zhang Yan greeted her relatives, while Zhou Zhuo and Qian Bin followed behind.

"Brother Zhou, what were you so surprised about in that shop just now?" Qian Bin couldn't help but ask Zhou Zhuo when he saw how preoccupied he was along the way.

"Didn't I tell you to look at that old man before? I thought he looked familiar, but I couldn't remember where I'd seen him before. "

"What old man?" In fact, when Zhou Zhuo told Qian Bin to look, his line of sight was blocked by someone else, so he did not see the person that Zhou Zhuo was talking about.

"Didn't you see?" Zhou Zhuo thought Qian Bin saw it. He was curious about it just now, but when Qian Bin saw that person, he was not at all confused.

"I didn't see it." Qian Bin was truly at a loss.

Since he didn't see it, there was nothing he could do about it. Zhou Zhuo sighed lightly, "It's fine. Anyway, I can't remember who it is. Since he's here, we will eventually bump into each other."

Qian Bin shrugged his shoulders as if he agreed with Zhou Zhuo. "Oh right, Little Zhang, why haven't we seen the scholar you were talking about today?"

Hearing Qian Bin's words, Zhou Zhuo suddenly had a hypothesis. Could it be that the old man he saw earlier was a scholar?

Zhang Yan was still eating the walnut in front of him when she heard Qian Bin's question. She turned around and said, "That's right. I don't think I saw any scholar today. The money we received was all with Ergou's help."

Zhang Yan suddenly stopped walking. "But it's okay. In the first year of school, the scholar will definitely go to the square. Every year, the scholar will bring the peach blossom to the square. After the ceremony, everyone can take a peach blossom branch."

"Can we go and see it then?" Qian Bin suddenly recalled the words Yan Min said to them before she left and looked at Zhang Yan eagerly.

"Of course."

"But it's not too good for us outsiders to attend your ceremony." Zhou Zhuo asked doubtfully.

"Pfft, pfft, pfft." Zhang Yan suddenly laughed, "Brother Zhou, I'm not asking you to participate." I'm just asking you to take a look. Outsiders can watch the Keating Ceremony, but they will definitely not be able to attend. "

"Those Soup Dumplings can only be eaten by people in our own village, outsiders are not allowed to eat them. Because if you foreigners were to accidentally eat that jade pendant, then it would not be good. "

After hearing Zhang Yan's words, Zhou Zhuo said somewhat embarrassedly: "Yes, I was confused just now." However, it's not bad if we can go and observe it. "

"Yes. In fact, in the past, these events were all held in the ancestral hall. Later on, because many of us youngsters would go to the provincial capital or the provincial capital to work, it was inevitable that we would not bring one or two friends with us when we return."

Zhang Yan walked beside Zhou Zhuo and said, "That's why the family head made a rule that all activities should be held in the square. Outsiders can also visit." but you can't take part in any event. "

"Moreover, on that day, people in our village had to wear the new clothes we made every year, which was a sign of respect for the ceremony. This will allow everyone to clearly distinguish if they are from our village or not. "

Zhang Yan explained very clearly. Qian Bin stroked his chin as he walked. "Now that you mention it, I'm even more curious. I really want to reach the first day of the new year soon."

"Ha ha-ha, no need to be so anxious. I'll first bring you guys to put on the bright lantern tonight. Tomorrow, at New Year's Eve, there will be a performance by the Lions Awakening Team in the village. There will be fireworks tonight."

"I guarantee you all will come by once. You will still want to come here next year." Zhang Yan was full of confidence about the celebrations in her village, "You can come and see the lanterns later." It's really pretty. "2

The three of them chatted as they walked towards Zhang Yan's house. As soon as he entered, he saw a man about fifty years old sitting in the yard, listening to music.

"Dad, you're back."

Zhou Zhuo and Qian Bin looked at each other. It turned out to be Zhang Yan's father. I'm sorry, we've come to disturb you. "

Zhang Yan's father was also a very hospitable person. When he saw Zhou Zhuo and Qian Bin, he didn't even want to listen to his favorite tune. He quickly turned off his phone and smiled as he led them into the house.

"It's quite lively outside, isn't it? Is it fun?" Zhang Yan's father took out a cigarette and passed it to Zhou Zhuo. Zhou Zhuo did not take the cigarette, and Zhang Yan's father passed the cigarette to Qian Bin, who did not take the cigarette either.

"Uncle, I'm sorry." I've quit smoking in the army for a few years. " After Qian Bin said this, he revealed a bright smile.

"You guys in the army had a hard time." "Zhang Yan's father did not care whether they really quit smoking or not." I heard from Yanzi that you guys are here to find someone. "

The matter of finding the person was not a secret. Zhang Yan telling her father was nothing, so Zhou Zhuo nodded, "Yes, our superior told us to come here and look for someone, but unfortunately, because so many years have passed and we don't even have a clue."

"That's right, uncle. If it wasn't for completing our mission, we wouldn't have been able to stay here for so long. The army has a rule that says we can't leave for too long."

"The army has requirements for these things."

"Yeah, we still have to report to the Leader every day." Qian Bin nodded. "Of course. Because it's the new year, we are given three days off."
