Chapter 51 The Origin of the River Lantern
"Wow!" All of a sudden, the crowd seemed to explode, and they all looked at Cheng Yubai like a monster, and everyone couldn't believe it, as if they had seen a monster!
Su Bai patted Cheng Yubai's shoulder with a smile, then turned around and said to the vendor boss with a smug face, "Hehe, I took this hairpin!" With that, Su Bai stretched out his hand and prepared to take away the golden hairpin.
"No way!" The vendor boss suddenly grabbed the golden hairpin and hugged it in his arms, and said to Su Bai in a resolute tone, "This hairpin must not be given to you, you can take the rest of the things!" ”
Su Bai was furious when he heard the vendor's words, and shouted at the vendor with wide eyes, "What do you mean, you are a naked deception!" Believe it or not, I'm looking for the government to arrest you! ”
The surrounding onlookers didn't seem to expect the vendor to react, and they couldn't help but start to feel sorry for Su Bai, and said to the vendor, "Why are you like this, aren't you a liar!" ”
The trader also knew that his actions had aroused the anger of the public, and pleaded bitterly with Su Bai and said, "Girl, the ancestor of our family left me such a treasure, today's incident is indeed my fault, please beg the girl to leave this hairpin for me, I will give you all the things on this stall!" ”
Su Bai pinched his waist and said word by word to the vendor owner, "No! Yes! This hairpin is mine! Then he reached out and grabbed the hairpin from the merchant's arms.
Cheng Yubai grabbed Su Bai's arm, shook his head at Su Bai and said lightly, "Forget it, it's useless if you want this hairpin, it's better to leave it for him, after all, it was left by the ancestors." ”
When the vendor boss saw Cheng Yubai pleading for him, he was immediately grateful, and said to Cheng Yubai excitedly, "Thank you, son!" Thank you, Childe! ”
Su Bai saw that the vendor was about to cry, and he didn't want to take away people's love, so he snorted coldly and said to the vendor boss, "Don't return the money to us yet!" ”
When the vendor owner heard Su Bai's words, he hurriedly returned the string of copper plates that Su Bai had just thrown to him respectfully to Su Bai, and said to Su Bai with a handful of snot and tears, "Thank you, girl, thank you!" Everything in this stall is for you! ”
Su Bai took the copper coin, glanced at the vendor boss, and said a little unwillingly, "Whoever wants your stall, I'll take this!" ”
Su Bai picked up a lotus-shaped river lantern, snorted coldly and walked out of the crowd.
"Thank you, girl! Thank you, girl! The vendor boss saw that Su Bai had only taken away a river lamp, and he suddenly breathed a long sigh of relief in his heart, if Su Bai really took away all the things on this stall, then he would have been busy for nothing this month!
Su Bai held the river lantern in his hand, and said to the two of them angrily, "That trader is really not honest, the hairpin is already mine, so I should report to the official and arrest him!" ”
He Zihan turned his head to look at the indignant Su Bai, sighed softly and said to Su Bai, "Forget it, if you really take the hairpin away, it is estimated that the merchant will not have the face to see his ancestor after he dies." ”
"Forget it, this girl has a lot of them, so I don't care about him in general!" Su Bai waved his hand impatiently, no longer thinking about the vendor.
He Zihan looked at Su Bai with a smile and said, "Don't you still have a river lantern in your hand?" Let's go put the river lanterns! ”
Su Bai turned his head to look at He Zihan, patted He Zihan's shoulder and said to He Zihan with a smile, "River lantern river lamp, first of all, there must be a river, do you know where there is a river?" ”
He Zihan looked at Su Bai a little blankly, and then turned his head to look at Cheng Yubai, but Cheng Yubai shook his head slightly at He Zihan, He Zihan suddenly looked embarrassed, and said to Su Bai, "I... I don't know..."
Seeing that He Zihan was hesitant, Su Bai couldn't help but say to He Zihan angrily, "I don't know if you don't want to ask, are you standing here waiting for others to take the initiative to tell you?" ”
He Zihan suddenly realized, hurriedly nodded at Su Bai, turned around and grabbed a person and asked, "Brother Tai, where is the river here?" We're going to put the river lanterns. ”
The person who was pulled by He Zihan looked at He Zihan like a monster, and said to He Zihan in disbelief, "Can't you see such a big river?" ”
The three of them looked in the direction the man was pointing, and there were many lanterns of different colors floating on a wide river not far ahead.
He Zihan smiled a little embarrassedly, and said to the man, "Thank you, brother, we are from out of town, and we are not very familiar with the route here." ”
The man glanced at Su Bai and the others, and walked away with a disgusted expression.
Su Bai saw that the man's face was not good, and he was about to rush up to reason with the man, but was stopped by Cheng Yubai on the side.
"Don't make trouble, there are many people here, try not to make trouble!" Cheng Yubai whispered to Su Bai.
Su Bai looked at the man's back angrily and glared fiercely, "What are you dragging, what's wrong with the outsiders, if you hadn't pulled me, I would have to gouge out his two eyeballs." Su Bai gestured as he spoke, and Cheng Yubai and the two couldn't help but smile and shake their heads when they looked at Su Bai's puffed up.
"Let's go, let's go put the river lanterns." He Zihan pulled Su Bai's arm, and said with a smile in the direction of the river.
Su Bai snorted coldly, turned around and walked in the direction of the river.
"Wow! Old woman, do you put so many river lanterns alone? Su Bai looked at an old woman on the side and said in surprise as he looked at a large number of river lamps beside him.
The old woman turned her head and glanced at Su Bai and the others, smiled kindly at Su Bai and said seriously, "People are old, they have lived for a long time, and there are more and more people who remember them, so naturally we have to put more river lanterns." ”
Su Bai bent down and picked up a river lantern beside the mother-in-law, played with it for a while, and said to the old woman with some surprise, "Mother-in-law, does each river lantern represent a person?" ”
The old woman slowly stood up, looked at the river lanterns on the river, sighed long, turned her head to look at Su Bai and said, "Little girl, do you know the origin of the river lanterns?" ”
Su Bai shook his head with some confusion, indicating that he didn't know.
The old woman looked at Su Bai's blank expression and couldn't help but smile, "You may not be able to understand the mood of putting river lanterns alone, in the past, when I was as old as you, someone would accompany me to release river lanterns." ”
The old woman glanced meaningfully at Cheng Yubai and He Zihan behind Su Bai, and her tone was full of nostalgia, as if she remembered her past.
