"Sister, look at that little monkey is so cute!" Zhan Xiaoyu pointed to the monkey led by his master and said. Because this monkey will sometimes give a congratulatory gift to the onlookers, sometimes grab the banana on the ground, peel and eat it like a person, sometimes pick up the copper coins thrown by the people, and sometimes ride the wheelbarrow made of wooden planks, around everyone, walk around so many laps, and here is still 'chirping', it is really cute!

"Well, the little monkey is riding the wheelbarrow again, so you can throw the snack you just bought in it and see if it will take it!" Zhan Xiaoyan said softly, now the little sister is taken by Liang Shiyun, she is holding Zhan Xiaoyu with her left hand, and Zhan Xiaoning with her right hand, watching the performance of this little monkey, from time to time they will buy some things, eat and play, and she has paid them one by one, as long as they like it, and besides, today is originally out to play!

"Okay, sister, then I'll throw the red bean cake in!" Zhan Xiaoyu said, picked in the basket, and finally threw the paper bag tied with the red rope into it. The little monkey just rode here, picked up the bag of snacks at once, and arched his hand to this side, and his funny and cute appearance made everyone laugh out loud.

"Xiao Ning, let's go and put the river lantern next! Next to that small river, there is a stall selling river lanterns, of course, there are also paper and pencils, let's go write blessings, and then put the river lanterns! Liang Shiyun handed the things she had just bought to the third brother, looked at the river not far away, and said to Li Xiaoning, who also nodded.

"Sister, help me write 'May my father and mother be safe in the next life!'" My sister, second brother and third brother are happy and worry-free with me, and we will never leave for the rest of our lives! Zhan Xiaoning listened to the small and fragmented voice in her ear, and knew that everyone had already written on the paper with a brush, so she leaned into Zhan Xiaoyan's ear and said.

"Well, Xiao Ning, my sister knows your wishes, and my sister didn't buy a river lantern for each of the four of us, but bought the largest river lantern, and then wrote on it, 'May my father and mother be safe in the next life, and may the four sisters and brothers be happy, support each other, and share joy!' This is the common wish of the four of us, and I believe it will come true! When Zhan Xiaoyan said this, he also looked at his two younger brothers, and their eyes were also shining with the same light.

"The river lantern is far away! Although we don't know where it will float to, at least now we can't see it, just imagine that it has floated into the hands of someone who can make our wishes come true, and our wishes will come true one by one! Zhan smiled and looked at the two younger brothers who had not yet withdrawn their gaze and said. Because she doesn't know if there really is a god in this world, but she is also a little afraid of gods in her heart.

"Okay, Xiao Yan, let's go back! The people in the square are almost gone, and there are not many people performing anymore, so go home! Liang Shiyun returned the brush to the stall owner, then stood up and said to a few people. Of course, everyone has no objections, because in another quarter of an hour it will be the sub-hour, it will be the fifth day of the new year, and the Lantern Festival will pass.

Back at [Piaoxiangzhai], Liang Mingjun and Han Meiyuan were sitting in the hall, so as soon as Liang Shiyun and his party walked into the store, they stood up and walked towards this side: "Okay, let's go back!" Did you come on foot? Meiyuan and I asked the coachman to bring a carriage, and now it was not too early, so we let men and women sit in a carriage, and everyone squeezed in. Otherwise, it will be too late to walk back! ”

"Okay, brother!" Liang Shiyun nodded, because it takes two quarters of an hour to get from here to home, and if it is walking, it will take half an hour, and it will really be too late by then. Originally, Liang Shiyun planned to hire a carriage, but now that the eldest brother has arranged it like this, of course it is the best.

"The nearest one is Zhao Mansion, so I'll send Miss Zhao and Zhao Gongzi back first!" Liang Mingjun explained to the coachman. Because the routes they took to go back were Zhao Mansion, Su Mansion, [Yan Jue Pavilion], and finally the General's Mansion, so they could just send back the three families who were not the owners of the carriage one by one, and also ensured their safety.

Three quarters of an hour later, there were only four sisters and brothers such as Zhan Xiaoyan left in the carriage, as well as four brothers and sisters such as Liang Shiyun, Han Meiyuan's carriage had just followed her home, and went back, and now of course there was only one carriage left. Eight people in a carriage must be a little crowded, plus there are things they bought aside, it seems even more crowded. So the eight of them could only sit and couldn't turn around, but Liang Shiyun still kept talking, talking to Li Xiaoning about the excitement of today's Lantern Festival, and the latter would also respond to her.

At this moment, the carriage suddenly paused, and then leaned forward sharply, as if it had hit something. Just when Liang Mingjun was about to ask the coachman, he suddenly heard an old man crying in front of him: "My Xiaoling! Xiao Ling, who has been with me for ten hours, was hit by a carriage and died, my poor Xiao Ling! This voice is really sad and sad enough, so that those who hear it also feel that he really misses the dead 'Xiaoling' very much.

"Old man, are you alright? Because it was too late and it was too dark in here, I didn't notice you, old man, so I bumped into it. I have ten taels of silver here, which is considered to be your compensation fee, please accept it! The coachman's polite apology came, although before coming here, he was sure that there was no one in front of him, but it was also a fact that he had hit someone at this time, so there was only an apology and reparation.

"My Xiaoling, you died a miserable death! Originally, it was just flying freely in the sky, but I didn't expect to die today, and I won't be able to fly again, my poor Xiaoling! However, the old man paid no attention to him, and continued to cry for himself, crying louder and more sad than before.

Everyone in the car heard the movement outside clearly, so they heard every word the old man said, and they didn't miss the sentence he just said, 'Originally, he was just flying freely in the sky, but he didn't expect to die today, and he will never be able to fly again', which means that the 'Xiaoling' in his mouth is not a person, but a bird?

Zhan Xiaoyan put his hand out of the car window and learned the call of a bird, which was no different from the call of a real bird. It didn't take long for a bird to fly towards her, stop directly on her hand, and gently peck her fingers, itchy, crispy, numb!
