Chapter 83 A layer of window paper

Zhou was going to listen to books, and Chen Xi tried every means to stop him. Now Shen Mingjun's career is still in its infancy and has not been on the right track. If Zhou obstructs it, it will be a waste of all his previous efforts.

However, Chen Xi thought again that Zhou should be happy to know that her husband has the ability outside, and there is no need to stop him. Could it be that the money of money can be given to him without making any profit?

But the problem is that this layer of window paper was not broken. Shen Mingjun used his side job to hide it from Zhou. The most important trust between the couple is to break it directly, and there is no room for buffering.

For the sake of family harmony, Chen Xi thought it would be better not to expose it.

"Mom, what's the good thing about books? Is there any good dream of the Red Chamber that I said? Let's stop going, it's dark and windy. If there is a kidnapper coming out, it's not good. Dad is not around, so how can we not have a man to protect us?"

Zhou disagreed: "Go and listen to a book, and it's still in the city. What's wrong with the rioters outside the city now? Look, Dalang and Liulang both went to school safely to study two days ago. What are we afraid of when we go out? It's not that we come back in the middle of the night, and the head ends. Let's get up and leave when there are too many people. What problems can we get out?"

"Mom, my stomach hurts a little. If you want to go, wait tomorrow."

Seeing that reasoning was useless, Chen Xi had to use some tricks. He thought that he was in poor health, so Zhou would not sit idly by. Unexpectedly, Zhou seemed to be determined to go to the storyteller, frowned: "You have a stomachache,... I'm staying at home, and I'm not allowed to go anywhere at night. Dai'er and your aunt Sun and others will come over."

Chen Xi really had no choice. After returning home, he wanted to find an opportunity to sneak out and inform Shen Mingjun, but Zhou asked him to go to the kitchen to burn fire and add firewood. Chen Xi finally saw the air and sneaked out and ran into Hui Niang and brought Lu Xier to the yard. However, she knew that Shen Mingjun was not at home and came to visit her.

"Aunt Sun, my mother said she wanted to go to study, but the weather is not warm yet. Going to study may cause Xier to suffer from freezing illness." Chen Xi could not convince me, so she had to start with Hui Niang.

Hui Niang smiled and comforted: "It's okay, I specially added clothes to Xi'er. You wear two more when you go out. You don't know that these days, people who buy medicine talk about listening to books in the tea shop. It's rare that people open their doors to business at night. It's a pity if we don't go and open our eyes. It's not good to be bored at home, don't you think?"

Hui Niang had a warm smile on her face, and it seemed that she was very yearning for listening to books. During the Chinese New Year, Hui Niang mentioned that the Yang family generals had no chance to listen when they were in the city last year. Now she had the opportunity to see with her own eyes and was reluctant to give up. Therefore, Chen Xi gave up the idea of ​​convincing her.

Finally after dinner, the two families and three maids went out collectively to the tea shops in the city. Many people on the way were also rushing to the tea shops, as lively as if they were watching festivals in the city.

But Chen Xi knew that storytelling is very different from watching opera. No matter how loud the storytelling voice is, what you can hear is only close to the area near the storyteller. When you go to the opera, you don’t listen to what others sing, but look at the gestures on the stage, as well as the appearances of Shengmo Jingdan and Chou. Even if you are far away, you can see a rough idea.

Ning'er, who is tall and heavy among pedestrians, walked in front with a lantern. It was not very dark today, so the lantern was not lit, but it was useful when she went back.

Zhou held Chen Xi and Lin Dai, afraid of getting lost on the two small roads, but Lu Xier was carried by Xiu'er, and was happily singing the tunes taught by Hui Niang on the road, which was very beautiful. The little girl rarely had the opportunity to play with her family. Even if it was dark now, she would be happy wherever she went.

Chen Xi only hoped that his father would stay in the store and not come out so that he would have time to go in and notify him. Anyway, Zhou did not recognize Mr. Han Wu and the friend in the tea shop. As long as Shen Mingjun did not show up, the window paper would not be pierced.

Finally arrived at the place, and the darkness in front of me was full of people.

Chen Xi did not expect that the tea shop would have such a sensational effect. It was because the people in the city had nothing to do after dinner. When they heard that there was a book, they simply brought their families out. Both adults and children brought a small stool. It would be far apart and no money to sit down and listen. So half of the city came to listen to free books.

The more people there are, the more relieved Chenxi is. This means that the tea shop is crowded and the father has no chance to go outside when he gets busy, which avoids meeting Zhou.

On the street on the bank of Xixi River, looking at the crowded scene in front of me, Zhou sighed: "There are so many people here. If I had known that we would have brought a few stools, now let's see if we can squeeze in. If there are seats in the tea shop, we'd better not listen to the white book, so we should do whatever we should do."

Chen Xi quickly said, "Mom, what's the point of getting close to you? You have to pay for it and you can listen casually when you are outside."

"Xiaolang, don't save money for Aunt Sun."

Hui Niang couldn't help laughing after hearing this, "This time I've agreed that I'll invite your mother to come and listen to books. If we don't spend any money, then what kind of life is the storyteller? My sister said, right?"

Zhou nodded and said, "This brat just likes to argue. Can't we even afford a few cups of tea? If we go, eat more cups of tea, will you be poor in Aunt Sun?"

Everyone laughed and laughed and went to the place outside the tea shop near the door, and it was already difficult to move forward.

At this time, Song Xiaocheng and the two guys who had just arrived were laying benches outside. This was specially prepared by the tea shop for the nightclub. Sitting on the bench and listening to books even if there is no tea supply, it will cost four cents. But if you want to go inside, the price will have to double.

Hui Niang saw the look of sitting in the tea shop, and couldn't help but sigh: "It's a pity that we came a little late, otherwise we could hear it clearly when we went inside."

While talking, Hui Niang and Zhou asked Yi's family to sit on the bench, the adults held the child, and the three maids sat on both sides to prevent anyone from coming.

Chen Xi sat next to Lin Dai, looked up at the tea shop, and the lights were a little dim, but he could vaguely see Shen Mingjun and Han Wuye busy moving the desk. At this time, he could only pray in his heart that Zhou would not notice it.

Not long after the whole family sat down, the entire street was filled with people coming one after another.

Ninghua County is located in a remote area, with only 20,000 or 30,000 residents in the city. There are very few entertainment activities on weekdays. It is extremely rare to gather together to join in the fun. This is also the second time Chen Xi saw so many people gather in the city after the Lantern Festival.

After collecting money next to the seat, the nightclub storytelling finally began, and the outside of the tea shop became quiet.

In order to let more people hear the content of his storytelling, Han Wuye took out the simple loudspeaker prepared in advance by Chen Xi. In this way, when he was telling, he only needed to explain the content well, and even the expressions and actions of the storyteller were omitted.

“Huh?”

Just as Master Han Wu greeted everyone, Hui Niang looked at Shen Mingjun walking through the room and said in surprise, "The shopkeeper inside seems to be the one in my sister's house."

After hearing this, Zhou stood up, leaned his head and looked inside. The distance was too far, and the light was dim, so he didn't see it very clearly. As the sound of cheering behind him sounded, she quickly sat down. She shook her head and smiled and said to Zhou: "Where is he capable? He is still working in the Wang family and will not come back today."

Chen Xi breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this. The first pass finally passed. The rest depends on whether he could find an excuse to go in from the back door of the tea shop in the name of having a stomachache or peeing to inform him.
