Chapter 183 Children’s Play Area in the Shopping Street!
The baby stroller that Xiao Chuchu was sitting in was made of smooth pearwood that had been polished to the point where there was not a single thorn.
As soon as it was launched today, it attracted the attention of many people.
However, everyone saw that Xiao Yunzhou and others were wearing brocade robes and looked very imposing, and they thought that they must be dignitaries, so they did not dare to ask in detail.
But at this moment, the eldest princess of Chu, who was wearing the vest of a wealthy merchant, was extremely bold.
Her eyes were completely attracted by the lovely Xiao Chuchu and the stroller.
The stroller only took up the space of one or two people. There were round wheels at the bottom, and a place for the baby to sit steadily on the top, and a thick and soft quilt was also padded.
The baby stroller also had a layer of plywood above the wheels, which could be used to stack some sundries.
At this moment, there were small clothes and diapers that Xiao Chuchu might change.
The handle of the stroller was made into a curved hook, and Xiao Chuchu's small bamboo kettle was hung on it.
The stroller is wooden in color, small and exquisite, and is made even cuter by Xiao Chuchu's rosy little face and the pink butterfly jacket on her body.
Princess Yun Wu of Chu State liked it at first sight.
"I saw you pushing the child in this stroller just ten steps away."
Especially the one pushing the stroller is Liu Channiang, who is beautiful and young. Today, she is wearing a lotus-shaped skirt that matches her daughter's parent-child outfit.
Princess Yun Wu looked over from a distance just now. It was a soft and slender young woman who was strolling leisurely while pushing the child with one hand, and occasionally she could easily take a sip of milk tea from the maid beside her.
After taking a few glances at the child to make sure that she was not crying or making a fuss and was in good spirits, the young woman looked at the things to play on the street leisurely.
This child is so comfortable, relaxed, and free!
Shopping, drinking tea, and taking care of the child, all three are done.
This young mother immediately made the princess feel good and envious!
"This stroller is not for sale yet. We will open a baby stroller shop here in the future."
Xiao Yunzhou gave Liu Runnian a look, and Liu Runnian immediately stepped forward to answer.
[Hehe, I'm the first one to use it. ]
Xiao Chuchu grinned, [This stroller needs to be equipped with a safety belt. I just said don't worry, let my uncle think about it. ]
[But today, it seems that baby strollers have a large market nowadays~]
[I just went out on the street, and I became the image spokesperson, and I got the first order! ]
Xiao Yunzhou and Liu Runnian were secretly relieved when they heard it.
It's another silver tael entering the treasury~
Xiao Yunzhou looked at the Princess of Chu, "In the future, we will open a long-term gathering here. Brother, you can wait a month or two before coming."
The Princess of Chu was quite disappointed when she heard it, "You have to wait?"
Xiao Yunzhou was just about to be polite and pretend to be good at things, but he saw the Princess bowed and turned away disappointedly.
He immediately became anxious, "Brother——"
This is the eldest princess of Chu, who is equivalent to five elites!
She is a powerful figure recognized by the fairy world.
If you miss this opportunity to capture the strategy, it may be gone.
But Xiao Yunzhou stopped the eldest princess, but he had nothing to say.
It is impossible for him to give the first baby stroller of Jingguo under his precious daughter's buttocks to the other party.
"Uh..." He was embarrassed, and then he heard his daughter's voice of rescue.
[Yes, I am smart again, don't let her go. Although we don't have it now, we can make a reservation first~]
Xiao Chuchu's thoughts were in a set.
Xiao Yunzhou's eyes suddenly lit up, and he looked at the puzzled eldest princess of Chu, "I dare not hide it from you, brother, I am in the business of this stroller."
"The one under my young daughter is the world's first baby stroller."
Hearing this, the eldest princess really stopped and looked at Xiao Yunzhou with interest.
It turned out that the person in front of him came up with this stroller that liberates women's hands.
"I don't know your surname, but I am amazed by your clever idea." The eldest princess of Chu State, who was indeed knowledgeable, pointed out the benefits of this stroller in one stroke, "It not only makes mothers and wet nurses feel relaxed, but also allows more women who take care of young children to have the opportunity to go out of the house and take care of children so conveniently outside. This stroller is really interesting."
The eldest princess Yun Wu, who had heard the Ji sisters say that Jing State valued women and was slowly promoting the path of gender equality, was actually a little skeptical in her heart.
But now, when she saw this baby stroller, she believed it a little.
Just now, she also saw the man trying to compete with the beautiful woman to push the baby stroller.
The eldest princess Yun Wu had a good impression of Xiao Yunzhou.
Xiao Yunzhou bowed his hands, "No need to ask, my surname is... Liu."
Liu Channiang, Liu Runnian, and even a group of important officials of the court who followed behind on a secret visit were all speechless.
Is it okay for the emperor to directly give the woman's surname?
But Xiao Yunzhou didn't think much of it. The Liu family were all smart people, and he thought it was good.
He smiled and looked at the Princess of Chu, "If you want this cart, you can pay a deposit with us first."
"We can discuss how much you want and when you want it."
Xiao Yunzhou glanced at the Minister of Works and the Minister of Revenue behind him.
The two stepped forward immediately.
"These two are my accountant and the carpenter."
The two ministers twitched their mouths.
The emperor was addicted to playing, and they had to play along!
"Nice to meet you."
The Princess of Chu was not blindly trusting others, but she had been in the palace since she was a child, and she often eavesdropped on the lessons taught by the tutor to the prince.
The Princess glanced at Jiang Li and Chen Xun, and found that both of them had the temperament of scholars.
They did not look like ordinary accountants, but rather like superiors who had achievements and commanded their subordinates all year round.
The Princess had a good eye for people, so she was no longer suspicious, and pointed to a middle-aged man with a white face and no beard beside her, "This is my housekeeper, so I will reserve ten. Fang Mo, you talk to these two managers and the accountant."
The white-faced, beardless man responded immediately, and his voice was very gentle.
[He should be a eunuch like Wei Zheng. 】
Xiao Chuchu saw it at a glance.
Xiao Yunzhou nodded secretly, thinking about it and said, "My dear brother, from your accent, you seem to be from Chu. Meeting is fate, I wonder if you are willing to travel with us?"
The princess was startled, but when she looked down and saw her men's clothes, she immediately agreed, "Okay, this is my first time here, I don't know what's new about this elegant gathering."
Xiao Yunzhou smiled and immediately introduced Liu Channiang beside her to her, "This is my wife."
"We are going to the snack shop to try new food, salted egg yolk meat dumplings, and beetroot soup."
[Beetroot soup? Is it the Jingguo version of borscht? ]
[Ah, I want to drink it! ]
[I dreamed about it that day! And salted egg yolk meat dumplings, I also ate them twice in my dream~]
Xiao Chuchu drooled at the thought.
Xiao Yunzhou smiled secretly.
This is indeed the voice of the girl dreaming about gourmet food after falling asleep.
The imperial kitchen tried five or six times before it was made, and it has been kept secret until now.
This time in Xunzhou, he was not only promoting the new style of Yangjing State, but also taking his daughter out to play as a father.
But just when they smelled the strong aroma of food and were about to enter the Zongzi shop, the Chu Princess Yun Wu's beautiful eyes lit up again.
She saw a fenced sand pile area next to the Zongzi shop, where a group of children were playing, with marbles, wooden swords, and some strange toys like tree holes.
"Oh, this is an area for children to play. I'm afraid that the children will get tired of shopping and make noise to make their parents tired, so why not play here."
"!" Makes sense.
Yun Wu's beautiful eyes were shocked.
She took a closer look and found that there were many men taking care of the children in the sand pile area where the children were playing... rarely women!
As the eldest princess of Chu, Yun Wu had to get married when she was old enough. She got married and had children as early as eighteen.
Now that she has two children, the most headache is the problem of taking care of the children on weekdays.
She gave everything to the wet nurse, fearing that the child would not be close to her in the future, and would be spoiled and grow up like the prince in the palace.
But keeping everything by her side would affect her work.
But now - Yun Wu looked at the men watching the children in the sand pile, her eyes brightened.
"Where are the mothers of these children?" Why are there only men taking care of children in Jingguo!
As soon as she asked, Liu Channiang smiled and replied, "Women have women's things."
Yun Wu was shocked.
"This special gathering has women's needlework shops, food shops, beauty shops... Many of them are supported by women, and their husbands naturally help take care of the children."
Yun Wu was very surprised. She had rarely let her husband take care of her children.
Her mother told her that even if she was a princess, she had to follow the rules of women.
"Is it the same in Jingguo? Isn't it that women stay at home and men stay outside?"
Liu Channiang glanced at Xiao Yunzhou, "Men and women work together, and work is not tiring. From the capital of Jingguo to the outskirts, we open up a little bit every day, and one day, the whole country will be like this!"
"A capable woman can go out when she wants to, and do things when she wants to."
"Of course, you can also choose to stay at home."
The eldest princess Yun Wu's eyes flickered.
Well said!
A good woman can do whatever she wants!
