The winter temple fair is the most lively time in Yuanhe Town, there are not only all kinds of snacks and delicacies in the temple fair, but also some interesting things, so that people who come from all over the world to visit the temple fair in the winter leisure can find what they are interested in. Chen Shouxin, Chen Boxun and the pavilion went to the door to catch the excitement of the temple fair, Chen Boxun took them all the way out and went straight to the temple fair. The temple fair is in the God of Wealth Temple in Yuanhe Town, and the Temple of Wealth has long been crowded with people inside and out.

On the first day of the temple fair, a ceremony to worship the God of Wealth is held, which is the difference between the winter temple fair in Yuanhe Town and other local temple fairs. Merchants of all sizes in Yuanhe Town will come to the Temple of Wealth and burn incense and worship under the leadership of the merchant leader of Yuanhe Town, who is naturally the richest firewood in the town. Chai, Qian, Shen, Lu, Cai, these five surnamed merchants are the richest families in Yuanhe Town, they are the Chai family's Chai Ji grain and oil shop, the Qian family's Wan Liang Yinhao, the Shen family's Yongdang pawnshop, Lu Sanniang's splendid workshop, and Cai Hong's Piaoxiang Building. Among these five merchants, the business is the largest, the most connected, and the deepest roots in Yuanhe County, which is naturally the Chai family who lives in Yuanhe. The head of the Chamber of Commerce in Yuanhe Town said that it was elected by everyone, but every time the leader of the Chamber of Commerce was elected, it was no surprise that the people of the Chai family finally became the leader. Yuanhe Town is also the seat of Yuanhe County, and over time, the head of the Yuanhe Town Chamber of Commerce has naturally become the head of the Chamber of Commerce of Yuanhe County.

On the square outside the temple, there is a stage for puppet shows, double reeds, and cross talk. Under the stage in the square, there are many people watching the counting treasures and tricks. What Chen Shouxin and the three of them like is that they saw a team of people stepping on stilts and twisting Yangge along the street, beating and beating all the way around the street near the Temple of Caishen. A few steps away from the Temple of Wealth, I heard bursts of cheers in front of me. The three of them no longer walked with the procession, and hurriedly ran over to see what was going on, and it turned out that a group of acrobats walking the rivers and lakes were performing the acrobatic trick of "spitting flames", which attracted applause from the audience.

The pavilion squeezed into the crowd regardless of the three-seven-twenty-one, and was startled by the sudden flames, and then clapped his hands again and again like the others.

"There's a sugar man!" The pavilion's eyes lit up, and I saw an old artist who was a candy man on the side of the road not far away, carefully pinching the candy in his hand. I saw that the originally ordinary sugar slowly had a body, limbs, and facial features in the hands of the old artist, and the last lively little girl became, as if Nuwa created a man, and the old artist gave life to the sugar man.

"Brother, let's buy a candy man!" The pavilion held Chen Boxun's hand and kept shaking, looking at him with blank eyes. Chen Boxun hesitated a little and did not answer. The pavilion turned his head to Chen Shouxin and said, "Daddy, shall we buy a candy man, shall we?" Chen Shouxin was staring at the old artist who pinched the candy man, clapping and cheering for him to come out with a new sugar man, and when he heard that the pavilion said that he wanted to buy the candy man, he was even more energetic than the pavilion, and he also took Chen Boxun's hand and shook it.

The old artist who pinched the candy man was happy, and said to Chen Boxun with a smile: "You little adults will buy two for these two little children and big children!" Chen Boxun, who was originally hesitant, saw this scene, and heard the old artist say this, so he agreed. Guan Guan and Chen Shouxin immediately smiled happily and picked their beloved sugar man by themselves.

"What's over there, Daddy, let's go see." The pavilion was very happy with the candy man in his hand, and he pulled Chen Shouxin to run in the direction of the stage. Chen Boxun was still paying here, and when he saw them running to other places, he hurriedly shouted to them not to run around.

"You wait for me." After Chen Boxun finished paying, he rushed over to find them in a panic.

The excitement of the temple fair and the actions of the three people were all watched by Song Hai. Hiding inside the gate of the Temple of Wealth and looking outward, every corner of the small square could not escape his sight. It had been three days since he had been separated from the tea merchants in Rongzhou, and Song Hai's first thought was to go back to Hetou Village to meet Wang Yueying and the children. However, during the time he left, Wang Yueying's family had moved to live in the town, so when Song Hai quietly returned to the village and pretended to pass by Wang Yueying's house several times, he only saw some strangers in the winery.

His room was still there, and he walked in cautiously, as if he was afraid of disturbing anyone. The furnishings in the house were the same as before, and strangely enough, the house was clean and almost dusty. A bow was still hanging on the mud wall, and the cloak hung next to it, quietly waiting for him to come home. The dishes and chopsticks on the table were still used by himself, but the oil lamp was dry, Song Hai knew in his heart that there were only people to clean the house, but no one lived in it. Seeing things and thinking about people, looking at familiar things, Song Hai couldn't help but think of Wang Yueying again.

Suddenly, there were several dog barks and the footsteps of a man outside the house. Song Hai looked out of the window and saw a man leading a big black dog here. The big black dog has shiny hair, and it looks very eye-catching on the dirt road with snow, Song Hai saw the dog's walking steps and knew that it was Xiao Hei, and the man holding Xiao Hei was Wang Zicheng. In a moment, Wang Zicheng took Xiao Hei to the yard, he tied Xiao Hei, picked up a broom and began to clean the snow in the yard.

"Little Black! When do you think Uncle Song Hai will come back? The disabled veterans who returned from the Huaizhou front said they had never seen him. Hey, don't think about it, I'd better listen to Aunt Yueying's words and clean the house every once in a while. After sweeping early, I have to go to the academy to pick up Bo Xun and go home for dinner. Wang Zicheng said to the dog, and stared at the snow in the yard as if he had thought of something. Song Hai heard him say that he wanted to take Chen Boxun home, and secretly planned to follow him to find Wang Yueying's residence. I thought it was better not to be discovered by him now, so I climbed out of the back window and hid behind a big tree not far away. Just as Song Hai was turning the window, Wang Zicheng put down the broom and walked into the house, looked around the room and was empty, and muttered in his heart. After cleaning the house, he hurriedly went to Qingyang Academy to pick up Chen Boxun and went home, and had nothing else to say.

Now, Song Hai watched Chen Boxun come to Chen Shouxin and the pavilion, said a few words, and turned around to buy something from the stall on the street. Looking at it from a distance, Song Hai felt that Chen Boxun and the pavilion had grown taller, especially Chen Boxun was more like an adult.

The stage was crowded with people, and the puppet show "Three Girls and Three Lang Love" was staged on the stage, which attracted all the attention of the audience, young and old. When it was too late, a rough and powerful hand covered the mouth of the pavilion, making her unable to scream, and then ran out with her in her arms, so frightened that she dropped the candy man in her hand. Chen Shouxin had a bad brain, and when he saw the stranger running away with the pavilion in his arms, he was also so frightened that he screamed, and chased after him while shouting about the pavilion. There were a lot of people on the main road, and the man holding the pavilion slipped into the nearby alley, Chen Shouxin chased him into the alley and was blocked by two men with wooden sticks, it seems that this gang of robbers came with a plan. Chen Shouxin was about to rush forward with a tendon in his head, but it is conceivable that he was beaten violently, and his head was broken and bleeding, and he cried loudly, and finally fainted at the entrance of the alley. Chen Boxun, who rushed to hear the sound, saw this scene, the osmanthus cake in his hand fell to the ground, and he hurriedly stepped forward to check Chen Shouxin's injury.

The robber was stunned and tried to exit the other side of the alley, when a man in ragged clothes blocked his way. The robber saw that he had a sword in his hand, and without hesitation, he also pulled out a dagger from his waist. Song Hai is the man who blocked the way.

"Put people down, you can be spared." Song Hai said.

"If you dare to touch me, I will kill her." As he spoke, he put the dagger against the neck of the pavilion.

"You dare to be careful ・・・・・・ die a miserable death." Song Hai became angry and began to threaten the robbers.

"You get out of the way for me, we only want money and don't want to die. You go back and tell the mother of this little doll, let her bring a thousand taels of silver to Qinglong Village at noon tomorrow to redeem people, otherwise wait to collect the corpse! "The robbers are tough, and rash action may hurt the museum. As the saying goes, a rabbit bites when it's in a hurry. Song Hai saw that the robbers only needed money, and there was no danger in coming to the museum for the time being, so for the sake of safety, he decided to let the robbers go first.
