Chapter 44: Separation

Cheng Zijing came out of the shop in the town and asked Wu Nuandong to visit the Lantern Festival to help the Wu brothers and sisters clean up the stalls.

As soon as it was cleaned up, a fat man ran over, panting and holding on to the table, pointing at Wu Nuandong with one hand, and gasping for a while before speaking, "That...... Is there still watermelon fruit? I...... I'm going to do it all! ”

Wu Nuandong opened her brother and Cheng Zijing, who were protecting her, and asked with a smile, "It's just two, how much do you pay?"

"Fifteen taels one, okay?" The man stretched out his finger, a little hesitant, there was no way, the little master in the family only recognized this, and he had been making trouble for two days.

Seeing that the little girl was silent with her little face down, and the other four male babies looked numb (actually stupid), the man obviously misunderstood, and hurriedly stretched out five fingers, "Fifty taels, two, this...... It couldn't be higher! ”

"Deal!" Wu Nuandong happily pulled the basket out from behind, let the man inspect the goods, put away the silver and said generously, "The basket is also given to you." ”

"Xiaowa, in the future, there will be this kind of fruit directly sent to the Liang Mansion, if the quality is good, the price will not be less than yours."

The fat man left a message, beckoned the little guy behind him to lift the basket and hurried away, leaving the stunned three brothers and Cheng Zijing.

"Good boy, rich people are really wasted!" Wu Xingzhou touched the fifty taels, and really couldn't understand how anyone could spend a lot of money to buy some unsatisfying fruits.

"Brother Xingzhou, you see that his shoes are worth fifty taels, and the waist on his body can't be taken down without a few hundred taels. It's normal to buy some rare fruit for fifty taels! Wu Qiuzhi said quite insightfully.

Wu Xia Zhi sighed, and asked with sparkling eyes, "Still Nuan Nuan has an idea, why don't I go home and bring the rest of the watermelon to him?" ”

Wu Xingzhou knocked on his head, "Stupid, scarcity is expensive, hold a bunch of them, where can the price be high!" ”

Cheng Zijing looked envious, jealous and hateful, "The money earned by Nuan Nuan's opening has caught up with the profit of my shop in January." ”

Wu Nuandong smiled and said nothing, today is a big slaughterer, and the price of watermelon will be very close to the people after it is popularized, of course, she still has a lot of money before it is popularized.

The pots and pans were sent to the donkey cart for temporary storage, and the five of them began to visit the temple fair, and on the last day, many lanterns were sold cheaply, and Wu Xingzhou's thoughts were slammed.

The bright moon hangs high in the sky, there are thousands of lanterns, and everyone carries all kinds of lanterns all over the street, which is very lively. The small families in the quiet alley of the secluded square hang several lanterns in front of the door, looking like a fairyland from afar.

There are many boat lights floating in the small river that runs through the whole town of Pingji, and many men and women on the riverside put boats and wrote their wishes and blessings on the hull.

Monkey play, shadow puppet play, and boxing along the way...... It was all an ancient performance that Wu Nuandong had heard of but had never seen, which attracted all her attention, and she didn't even know when her brothers stuffed a white rabbit in her left hand and handed a red paper windmill in her right hand, until she saw that she was more interested, and shouted with interest, "It's a trick!" "A puff of smoke slipped into the crowd.

"There's a fire-breathing one over there!" Wu Xia Zhi pulled Wu Qiuzhi and dragged it vigorously towards the place where the fire was breathing.

Cheng Zijing twisted around and grabbed Wu Xingzhou's hem and pulled it towards the riverside.

The five of them were inexplicably separated, Wu Nuandong was clapping and cheering without hesitation, and the doll's delicate and glutinous applause attracted a lot of people's kind eyes, seeing that it was a cute and delicate little girl, who always inadvertently put her attention on her.

Wu Nuandong was unconscious, and when he got tired of seeing it and came back to his senses, several brothers and Cheng Zijing had already disappeared. Patting the head helplessly, the best way for people to lose it is to stay put, otherwise everyone will look for it, and the probability of meeting is too low.

The little person stood alone on the street, letting the crowd shuttle, she couldn't notice anything, but the two pairs of eyes on the second floor of the teahouse were always looking at her intently, from applauding to finding that she was separated from her family, she was as calm as a little adult, such a little girl was really interesting.

"Would you like to be called up and seated?" The thirteen or fourteen-year-old boy's light blue robe is splendid and mature, his appearance is handsome and elegant, his eyes are as gentle as water, his eyes are black and white, and his nose and lips are red. It's just that his demeanor is a little more clear and noble, and if you ignore the fun at the corners of his mouth, he really has the power of bluffing.

"That little baby will definitely not come!" The fourteen-year-old boy sitting across from him leaned on the railing casually, raised his teacup and said leisurely. A dark purple brocade robe was loosely worn on the body, and the half-open round neckline was pulled even bigger, revealing the long collarbones on both sides like butterflies spreading its wings, the facial features were deep and exquisite, the tails of the eyes were raised to add a wild style, and the eyes were faint as a wolf's brown, looking at Wu Nuandong condescendingly.

"Bet on what?" The young man in light blue was playing with a piece of ocean chalcedony the size of a half-palm, with a warm and white texture, and the small flowers blooming on it were like sassy ink danqing, full of color, natural and innocent, and the slender hand was as delicate as jade.

"Liang Zhen, good gambling is a disease, and it has to be cured!" Luo Yuhan put down the cup carelessly, and wiped the water stains on his lips with his thumb, which was a rude action, but let him make a little free and easy.

Liang Zhen saw that he was always looking at the little girl intently, a contemptuous smile on the corner of his mouth was fleeting, his fingertips tapped lightly, and the little girl waiting behind him immediately went out lightly.

Luo Yuhan lowered his eyes to cover the coldness in his eyes, curled the corners of his mouth, and glanced at him evilly, "It's good to bet on this teahouse!" ”

"Good! Ben Gongzi bets on a request! Liang Zhen's smile deepened, and he called a little maid to say a few words......

Wu Nuandong waited and waited, and what he waited for was a little boy dressed in Tsing Yi, the little boy looked very polite, but there was a trace of arrogance in his eyes, and he held it slowly, "Little girl, my son-in-law saw you alone, and I was afraid that you would be afraid, so I specially asked me to come over and invite you to the teahouse to eat some sweet fruits." Let's go! As he spoke, he was about to pull Wu Nuandong's sleeves.

Now that Wu Nuandong's Jing Nuan's Heart Sutra has entered the first realm, she naturally found that someone in the teahouse not far away was paying attention to her 'warmly', pouting, pretending to be innocent and asking loudly, "Who is your son-in-law?" My brother said he wouldn't let me go with strangers, you're shooting flowers, right? ”

Xiao Tong was not calm now, the eyes of the crowd were like thorns, and he was uncomfortable, but fortunately, Gongzi sent his brother to save him, so he was free from embarrassment. was glared at by his brother, and the little boy retreated back with a puffed face.

"Little girl, my son-in-law has no malice, oh, this is five taels of whitebait to buy candy for you to eat, remember to thank my son-in-law after taking the silver!" This number of paragraphs was obviously higher than the one just now, and he took out two silver fish from his arms and handed them to Wu Nuandong.

Wu Nuandong took it unequivocally and stuffed it into his sleeve pocket with a smile.

"Let's go, go to the teahouse with my brother, and thank my son-in-law!"

"Don't people say that great kindness is not thankful? Little brother, if your son-in-law really wants to see me, or invite him down for a gathering, and I can invite him over to watch the monkey show! "How can you not want the money given for nothing, treat her as a monkey, don't blame her for receiving money and not appreciating her face.

Xiao Tong's face changed, and he wanted to pull the little girl upstairs, but it was really inappropriate for many people around to look at it.

"Brother, what should I do?" The two little boys muttered kung fu, and Wu Qiuzhi, who was watching the fire-breathing performance with Wu Xia Zhi over there, finally found that Wu Nuandong was no longer beside him, and yelled a few words at Wu Xia Zhi with a white face, and the two hurriedly returned along the road, and when they saw Wu Nuandong blocking the two in front of him, Wu Xia Zhi was also anxious, and rushed over with his sleeves folded.

Cheng Zijing here also realized that he was not pulling Wu Nuandong, and he looked at Wu Xingzhou face to face, so he naturally had no intention of appreciating the river, so he hurried back.

The four boys gathered in front of Wu Nuandong at the same time, and Wu Xingzhou stared at the two children of the same age as him expressionlessly, "You bully my sister?" "It's a little scary to have a tiger's eyes open.

"Dare to bully my sister, make up for you!" Wu Xia Zhi compared his fists, although his height was not as good as that of two children, he couldn't stand his strong bones, and he couldn't ignore it like a little calf.

"It's not...... It's my son-in-law who pays for ......"

"What are you doing with the money, my sister is a good girl, crooked and evil, don't pollute my sister's ears!" Wu Qiuzhi was annoyed that he had carelessly let Nuan Nuan almost get lost, and the two children hit the muzzle of the gun, and immediately shouted unforgivingly: "Is there any Wang Fa, you want me to call the neighbors to comment on the theory!" ”

"You...... You are unreasonable! ”

"The yamen is reasonable, you abduct other people's female babies and are still reasonable!" Cheng Zijing said, looking at him coldly, "Looking at people and dogs, phew!" ”

The more and more people gathered, the two children couldn't stop the four mouths, and finally glanced at Wu Nuandong, who was pretending to be innocent, and walked away.

"I hate the rich man's style of coming and going when he calls others, it's annoying!" Wu Nuandong shrugged his little nose and grimaced at the second floor of the teahouse, and the five of them continued to guess the lantern riddle unaffected.
