Chapter 12: Street Scams
"Mrs. Yang, let's say a few words! Why do you mention this for the New Year? The landlady frowned.
Mrs. Yang wanted to argue, hey! What a big deal to compete with the landlady for the New Year! "Let's go, let's go, let's eat the rice cake first."
The landlady and Mrs. Yang were far away, and Gu Zhanyan sneered, "No wonder people often say that they know people and faces, but they don't know their hearts, I didn't expect Mrs. Yang to look kind and kind, but I didn't expect ......."
"Second brother, irrelevant people, why be angry!" Gu Yaluo said indifferently, "After they leave, let's go down to watch the dragon and lion dance." She winked at him, and an uninhibited smile hung on her lips.
"Humph! This Mrs. Yang is the most stingy. Last year, my mother asked me to give his child a dime, and she kept laughing at me for being a poor ghost, and I couldn't even afford to give red envelopes. Gu Zhanshuo said with a gloomy face, "What she gave us is different." ”
"Come on, this is the red envelope that my mother gave you. Take it! Lu Jiangdan took out three red envelopes from his pocket and distributed them to the children.
She still keeps the three cents of the New Year's money.

"Wife, this rice cake is so well fried!" Mr. Yang praised Mrs. Yang and said.
Mrs. Yang said triumphantly, "Of course, I guarantee that they will want to eat again after eating." ”
"Alright, it's almost time, we should go back to your house, to Dad. Mom's New Year's greetings. Mrs. Yang buckled the rice cake and said, "Ah Hai, Xiaoru is wearing new clothes, let's go to grandma's house." ”
"Yay!" Two teenage children jumped and jumped happily.
Chinese New Year means wearing new clothes and having good food.
Ah Hai was wearing new clothes, and she turned around in front of the mirror and said, "Zhan Yan's kid is not here, so I can't show it if I want to." ”
Gu Zhanyan, who was sitting on the bed, was angry, waving his fists in the void. Lu Jiangdan held his hand and patted it, and Gu Zhanyan, who was angry, kicked open the soda can under his feet.
"What's the sound, doesn't it mean that there's no one next door?" Mr. Yang said.
Mrs. Yang shook the suit in her hand twice, "Ah Hai Dad, get dressed." After dressing her man, she patted her man's back, smoothed his clothes and said, "There is really no one!" The landlady called for so long, but no one answered! His house is full of soda cans, and it is estimated that a mouse accidentally touched it. ”
and mocked, "As for Mrs. Gu's poor and sour appearance, it is estimated that the rats will not go to her house." ”
"Wife, help me fix my tie." Mr. Yang, who was wearing a tie in front of the mirror, turned around, "Wife, for the New Year, be merciful." ”
"It's stupid, and I can't wear a tie." Mrs. Yang glanced at him and said coquettishly.
Mr. Yang muttered quietly, "You said that I am a stall in Temple Street, and I don't work in a foreign company, what kind of suit do I wear!" Don't my parents know what the situation is in our family! I don't look like a prince in a dragon robe! ”
"Shut up, you still say!" When Mrs. Yang heard this, her eyebrows immediately rose, and she poked his head and said, "Look at your unpromising appearance, the New Year made me angry, I just don't want to be looked down upon by your eldest brother and eldest sister." ”
"Mom, let's go! It's almost late. Yang Wenhai urged.
"Let's go!" Mr. Yang immediately pulled the two well-dressed children and walked out.
There was a sound of rustling clothes, followed by the sound of the door slamming shut. The next door was quiet.
After nine o'clock, there were gradually fewer people outside, either like Mrs. Yang, they went out one after another to pay New Year's greetings, or like the landlady, locked the door and went to the street after the New Year.
The sound of gongs and drums, dragon and lion dances came from the streets.
Gu Zhanshuo said, "Mom, there's no one outside, let's go out!" ”
Gu Zhanyan had already opened the crack in the door, glanced out, turned around and said, "Mom, big brother, there's really no one outside!" ”
"Come back and get dressed, let's go out again." Lu Jiangdan beckoned to him.
The trio put on clean sweaters that had been pulped and washed. The brothers wore plain blue cashmere turtlenecks with a diamond-shaped plaid with white velvet thread on the chest.
Gu Yaluo is a cashmere red sweater, but the sleeves are short, revealing half of her forearms.
Lu Jiangdan's face was embarrassed, Gu Yaluo chuckled, "Look! That's not it. She tugged at her sleeve, "Hurry up, hurry up, it's too late, the dragon and lion dances are over." ”
The family was fully dressed, "Mom, you go first, I'll come later." Gu Zhanyan walked at the back and said.
"Good! Come on. ”
Lu Jiangdan and the three of them went downstairs first, the street was full of gongs and drums, dragon and lion dances, and there were windmills, balloons, children's toys, and snacks on roadside stalls on both sides of the road, and every hot face was filled with a happy smile.
"That Zhanshuo, you take the snail to watch the dragon and lion dance, I'll go and see if there are any short-term jobs available." Lu Jiangdan admonished, I don't know where to go when I just came out.
"Mom, don't worry! I must be optimistic about the snail. Gu Zhanshuo patted his chest and reassured.
Gu Yaluo pressed Lu Jiang Dan's arm and pulled the corners of her lips helplessly, "Mom, don't let you see anything more on your body?" Otherwise, I'd rather be hungry. ”
I don't know where my lunch is today! Gu Yaluo was really afraid that she would do something stupid again, so she warned her in advance.
If it is a normal body, she has no objection to donating blood, but now Lu Jiangdan's body is obviously overworked, and her nutrition can't keep up, donating blood? She saw it as a sacrifice.
"Huh?" Gu Yaluo snorted lightly.
Lu Jiangdan's heart was shocked, and Luo'er's indifferent eyes made her afraid, and she nodded involuntarily, "Mom, I know." ”
Gu Zhanyan hurriedly ran over and stopped Lu Jiangdan, who turned around, and said, "Mom, no matter if you find a job or not, don't be in a hurry in the next few days." Don't worry too much, we can pick up more soda cans. ”
Gu Zhanyan showed Lu Jiangdan the soda can he had picked up after coming out for a while.
"You stupid boy, it's not that you won't let you pick it up." Lu Jiangdan's eyes were red, and tears almost fell.
"Mom, this is not a good thing!" Gu Zhanyan scratched his head and said with a smile.
"Mom is gone, you guys be careful, go home early after reading." After Lu Jiangdan finished speaking, without waiting for them to respond, he turned around and hurriedly disappeared into the crowd.
She was afraid that if she stayed, the tears would stay.
As soon as Lu Jiangdan left, Gu Zhanshuo and Gu Zhanyan were like wild horses on the loose, and no one cared about them, so they began to pick up soda cans.
But before that, Gu Yaluo had to settle down first, Gu Zhanyan lowered his head, looked at her and said, "Luo'er, watch the dragon and lion dance here obediently, we will pick it up on this street." ”
Gu Yaluo was worried that she would not have a chance to get rid of the two brothers, and this opportunity would come. Naturally, he obediently responded.
The brothers left, and Gu Yaluo withdrew from the crowd and retreated to the side of the street.
There was a loud shout from the alley, "Come on, bet, bet......"
Soon, there were many people around this person, and Gu Yaluo leaned against the wall and looked at it playfully.
The division of labor of three men is detailed, one is a release, one is a banker, and one is a nursery.
The way to gamble is very simple, throw a handful of melon seeds into a small bowl, and cover it with a wooden plank, so that people can guess the odd and even.
It's really an ancient deception, and there are really many people who are attracted by this burst of shouting.
Chinese New Year? Who doesn't have some money on them, so this business is very good. When I went in, I was smiling, and in the blink of an eye, five or six were lost, and roughly calculated that there were thousands of dollars.
When he came out, he was all in his pocket, and he was depressed, scratching his ears and cheeks, and hit his hands, "A little back, I can clearly see how many of them are inside!" ”
A few people who lost walked away, and the man who let go of the wind looked at Gu Yaluo and said deliberately, "Little ghost, what to see." ”
"Tsk...... Business is good! Gu Yaluo raised her eyebrows and said ruffianly.
"Go, go, your mother told you to go home for dinner!" Let go of the wind impatiently waved his hand.
"The rules of the rivers and lakes, half of the meeting." Gu Yaluo spread out her hands with a chuckle.
"Yo he...... Brother is surprised now, a little ghost actually told me the rules of the rivers and lakes. He turned his head and smiled at the two brothers beside him.
"The hair hasn't grown! It's a matter of learning from people to mix the rivers and lakes. When the nurse clasped his hands on his chest and nostrils and said, "Stay where it's cool!" Be careful that Lao Tzu is not polite to you. ”
Gu Yaluo smiled lightly and said lightly, "I won't pretend at this time." Brothers, it's okay. Lazily raised his right hand, shook his index finger, put it in front of his mouth and blew, "Every bet will win, make sure you don't lose!" ”
The dealer saw that not only his brother had exposed it, but even his own tricks to make money had been exposed.
simply didn't pretend anymore, showing his original form, "Little ghost, I'm really tired!" "Brothers, it seems that things can't be good today." Boy, just now I told you to go or not, this time there is a way in heaven and you don't go, and there is no door in hell for you to break in, and Lao Tzu will sell you to the duck shop! "I don't pay any attention to the little ghost in front of me.
"Not to mention, this little appearance has been trained for a few years, and it will definitely become a top brand!"
On Gu Yaluo's palm-sized little face, a pair of round eyes were extraordinarily bright, but at the moment, the pair looked at them with disdain.
The three men also walked over with a lewd smile and surrounded Gu Yaluo.
"Ah......h
"Ouch......"
"Oh......"
......Half a minute later, the three men fell to the ground one after another and fainted.
"Really, I thought you were pitiful and wanted to follow the rules of the rivers and lakes! Actually let me do it myself, but luckily the sweater is fine. Otherwise, hum ...... "Gu Yaluo patted his unwrinkled sweater, and carried more than two thousand yuan in his arms and went out of the alley to find Gu Zhanshuo and them.
