Chapter 6: This Year's New Year's Eve (2)
begging for father, begging for mother, mobilizing the masses to toss blindly. Tianxin has been really busy in the past few months. At first, he asked Ren Carpenter for instructions and wanted to participate in the East Market Lantern Festival, but Ren Carpenter was resolutely refused, not to mention what kind of lady problem Ren raised by Ren's sister-in-law, Ren Carpenter was worried about his daughter's safety, and his parents who had experienced life and death were not willing to let their daughter be involved in any danger. Tianxin had to use the coquettish Dafa that she had learned in the past few years, and she was pestering herself, Ren's sister-in-law was the doting of the grass on the wall, and the most unbearable thing for Ren Carpenter was that her daughter pulled her sleeves, revealing a pitiful look like a small animal: "Daddy, the third brother and Xiaoqi will take care of me, the third brother is already fifteen years old, I will follow them, and I will never run around!" ”
"No, you're a girl, not like them." Carpenter Ren is very resolute.
"Dad, I'm going to have a long experience, and by the way, show my face to our old Ren family, if you think I'm insulting my name when I go out like this, I'll disguise myself and disguise myself as a man! Daddy, have you heard of Mulan? Tianxin put on a man's appearance between his words, paced up square steps, a small appearance, and made people laugh, "Look, I'm more like a man than Mulan!" ”
The corner of Ren's carpenter smiled and hesitated: "No, the last time I went to the temple with your mother, I lost it for a long time." ”
"Or, Xianggong will follow Xin'er and them?" Sister-in-law Ren pulled her daughter into her arms, intimate like a baby.
"Father, mother, daughter, over the years, when has she been in trouble? My daughter has received the guidance of the Bodhisattva, and it is not the same as before! It's true! The daughter only went for one day, and the other two days the daughter was obediently at home. You see, last year, there was no danger for my daughter to go every day for three days at night, and my daughter just went to see the lights! ”
"East Market is not a good place to go." Ren carpenter is surprisingly tough, "There is also a lantern festival in the West Market, and watching the lights is in the West Market." "It was decided. Carpenter Ren no longer struggled with his daughter and went straight to the workshop. Tianxin is a little inexplicable, I don't know why my father is against it, although my father usually loves it, he is not so rigid. Forget it, if it doesn't work in the open, let's go dark. Although the carpenter Ren did not allow Tianxin to go to the East Market Lantern Festival, he still did what Tianxin wanted.
In the blink of an eye, it was the first night. The third brother has already sent news that this time there is no limit to the number of people in the East Market Lantern Competition, and there is no limited area, so just go at that time. Transporting the lantern has become a difficulty, and this time the lantern designed by Tianxin is much more gorgeous and larger than the previous two times, so I had to secretly place it at the third brother first, and pulled a coarse cloth to cover it. The third brother borrowed a flat wooden wheel cart for transporting goods, and the third brother and Xiao Qi transported the lanterns to Dongshi first, and Tianxin would come to meet them later.
After dinner, Tianxin pretended to hold her breath, ignored her father and mother, and closed the door when she entered the room. Sister-in-law Ren came to knock on the door, she answered a few times, and then said that she was asleep. Ren carpenter was angry with her, thinking that the children would be fine if they slept well. Seeing that the time was ripe, Tianxin changed into Xiao Qi's half-used padded jacket, flashed to the backyard, and easily slipped out of the house from the small back door.
Xiao Qi was already waiting outside as promised, and when she saw Tianxin's appearance, she was stunned, and stroked her uncared hair behind her ears: "Xiao Xin, you really look like a tomboy, but this coarse cloth clothes don't line you, and when I make money in the future, I will make you a set of satin, I heard that satin clothes can also be inlaid with gold wire......"
Tianxin smiled happily and patted Xiao Qi, who was a head taller than her, righteously: "Okay, I'll wait!" But first we have to compare today's game. Are Fushun and Ping'er all here? You can't afford to lose in momentum. We represent the West Market! ”
"Well, there are nine of them in total, and some of them can't come if they don't let people go." While talking, they went against the flow of people at the West Market Lantern Festival, with Tianxin in front and Xiao Qi behind, trotting. Tianxin still doesn't have to bow her head and avoid old acquaintances.
"Hurry, hurry up, if you don't come again, this thing won't be saved, Fushun is surrounding it with people!" When the third brother saw them, he hurriedly stepped forward, "The people who participated in the lantern competition have already gone to mention their names, hurry up, don't be busy in vain!" ”
When Xiao Qi heard this, he ran towards the lantern covered with coarse cloth, Ping'er saw Tian Xin in men's clothes, and ran over to pull her, Tian Xin was close in small steps, and did not catch up with Xiao Qi.
At the end of the lantern, Ping'er ran away, there was a gap, just at the same time, a shoulder was moving quickly towards this side, and the sedan chair driver in front shouted: "Get out of the way!" "People can run away, but how can this big lantern be moved. Several children have never seen such a luxurious shoulder, and subconsciously dodged aside, only Xiao Qi was still standing in front of him in a daze, blocking the way, but Tianxin knew that the owner of this shoulder would not stop because of a little hairy child, the lantern and Xiao Qi were both important to her, she straightened up and put on the leading sedan chair, although she was small, but with the momentum, the leading sedan chair man still stumbled her, and her shoulders were naturally crooked.
"The kid is looking for death!" Tianxin, who rebounded and fell to the ground, saw a few guards behind his shoulders, looking very capable of fighting. This time it was troublesome, Tianxin wanted to stand up and run, but she didn't stand firm in a hurry, sat down on the spot again, and pulled the sedan chair driver's trouser leg, and her shoulders swayed again. Before the guards moved, the people in the sedan chair leaned out, and the whip came before their feet touched the ground, and Tianxin saw a long whip like a snake rushing in front of her, she only had time to cover her face, and said in her heart: It's over, it's over, I'm going to be killed.
But she didn't feel any pain, she only heard the wind swishing, and she was picked up with one arm and thrown aside, and her ass hit the ground again. When she looked out, she caught a glimpse of the corner of the man's clothes, which was actually an attendant. The guards all looked down at the ground, and she couldn't tell which one had come running to throw her. Does it count as saving her from a whip? Xiao Qi ran to help her at this time, Tianxin touched her sore buttocks and pinched arms, stood in front of her lanterns, and asked the third brother to command the children to push the lanterns away quickly. The person on this shoulder is not like a good person, don't hit the lantern with a whip when the time comes, what can she do! Taking the opportunity, she glanced at the shoulder and directly ignored the arrogance on the face of the shoulder owner. It's just that how can this upright face have two points of familiarity? Tianxin remembered, isn't this the yellow-mouthed child he had secretly seen in Tianyuan Temple? Now it seems that he is a year or two older than Xiao Qi, and he is still delicate and noble, but there is a bit of anger in the corners of his eyes. It seems that this person is either the second generation of the rich or the second generation of officials, Tianxin can't help but feel a trace of disgust in his heart, he is going to whip people on the street, he really damn it! I don't know how his father and mother taught him, if he came out in a BMW, I'm afraid he would also be a master who killed people and didn't pay for his life!
"Where are you going!" The shoulder master shouted angrily, the child's voice had not changed, it was clear but cold.
"Hurry up, hurry up." Tianxin urged the children to run to the side as she bent her waist and followed, praying that the damn creature would let her go.
"How dare you run? Shocked the sedan chair, do you still want to run? ”
Alas, Tianxin sighed, it seemed that she couldn't run, she turned around and responded: "It's you who wants to run, hit people, whip people, no matter how you look at it, you are bullying people!" ”
Seeing this, the third brother hurriedly stepped forward and pulled Tianxin: "Hurry up and make amends, it's our fault, don't worry about us, uncle." ”
Tianxin didn't know that the third brother was so able to bend and stretch, she had not been treated like this in this life, and her anger gradually rose, so she shook off the third brother's hand and became impulsive: "Yes, the master on the sedan chair, should you give us a gift!" ”
The little master on his shoulders looked at the little man in front of him who didn't know the height of the sky, and he had the urge to laugh. This kid looks poor and sour, with a half-worn coarse cloth jacket, lined with fair and shiny skin, under the wide clothes, his thin waist is straight, and his apricot eyes are wide open, flashing with a few colors, but people are reluctant to look away. Where did he get the courage to shout in front of him? The shoulder master put away the whip and showed someone to let him get out of the sedan chair.
"Why do you call the master to apologize?" The shoulder master asked coldly, there was a smile on his face, and the guards knew that this smile did not contain good intentions, "You are the one who stands in the way!" ”
"There are many tourists in this Lantern Festival, and you have to take care of the safety of others, so it is arrogant to go on such a rampage. You have also seen that we have a big thing in our hands, and we want to let you, but we have to have this time, you are indiscriminate, and you want to beat people when you raise your hand, which is inevitably not tolerable. Uncle, you are a nobleman, the prime minister can still support the boat in his belly, this is a festival, don't sweep your luck, we are going to participate in the Lantern Festival, I don't want to delay your urgent matter, it is better to say goodbye, I wish you a smooth journey, we can all have a happy holiday! Tianxin made a gesture, showed his teeth, and winked at the third brother secretly, suggesting that he should hurry up. Although she is angry, she is not a person who does not know the times, and after questioning, she turned to flattery and patting the horse, Mingzhe is necessary to protect herself, this is the first time she has come to Dongshi, she knows nothing about the battlefield and opponents, and she will lose the battle, so why fight. Besides, there are so many little comrades following behind, what is going to happen, how to explain to other people's parents? It's just a matter of being soft, and when we have money in the future...... Tianxin YY took a moment and hurriedly gathered his mind to meet the enemy.
Seeing that the kid on the other side suddenly changed his character, the shoulder owner frowned slightly, a little surprised, and the righteous and awe-inspiring face just now, he changed his tone in a moment, making him a little disappointed: "But the master doesn't want to let you go." ”
"Then the uncle made a bet with the little one!" If you can't be soft, then let's provoke the general, no matter what, this is just a little hairy cub who hasn't even changed his voice, Tianxin said secretly, his two lives combined, are people in their thirties, is it possible to be afraid of a child?
The shoulder owner seemed interested: "What do you have to bet with the master?" ”
"How about betting on who wins the lantern contest?" As soon as Tianxin's words fell, the eyes of the shoulder master flashed.
"Anyway, the small one is also going to participate in the lantern competition, if the small one doesn't take the first place, then the master will allow a small request from the small, if the small one can't win, of course, the small one participates in this kind of competition for the first time, and he didn't plan to win, as long as he gets the first place, the small one loses, and the small one will give the most valuable thing to the master as an apology. If you think it's okay, let's hurry over, it's too late. It's just that...... If you're late, you'll lose! Tianxin talked endlessly, and finally did not forget to provoke her, following her words, everyone had to hurry up.
Interesting! Of course, the shoulder master was aware of Tianxin's little trick, but he didn't break it: "Under this rag is your lantern?" ”
Tianxin stepped forward through the coarse cloth and stroked the lantern: "That's right, will the master go with the little ones?" ”
The shoulder master stopped talking, turned to the shoulder and ordered: "Go." ”
