Compared with the ten-mile long street in Yangzhou City, the night market in Bozhou is much inferior, but it also has its own characteristics. There are not as many places in the city as in Yangzhou, but all kinds of snacks and gambling houses have their own climate.

Tonight is the Shangyuan Festival (Lantern Festival), standing on the top of the bridge and looking at it, I saw the colorful lights in the city swaggering, dazzling.

"Look, there's a big fire in the yard!" Xue Wenyang pointed out.

It is the custom of the Shangyuan Festival to set fire to the lantern, but it is also fresh to set such a big fire in the family garden.

Xie Zhiqian shook his head and read:

"How's the night? The night is not young, and the light of the court is burning. The gentleman will stop, and the sound will be.

How is the night? The night is not in the ascendant, and the court is blazing. The gentleman stopped, and the voice was grunting.

How is the night? In the morning of the night village, the courtyard is bright. The gentleman stops, and his words are admired. ”

"Don't read it, it's really on fire, haven't you seen so many servants carrying buckets desperately trying to extinguish the fire?" However, this house is adjacent to the river, and the fire is put out in a timely manner, so there should be no major problems.

Yu Lang remembered that he was chased and spanked during the Lantern Festival when he was a child in his previous life, and he really felt like a different world, ah, he was already a lifetime apart.

Red Silk muttered: "In the past, Shangyuan Shui always had to eat a bowl of steamed cocoons with my own hands, otherwise he would never want to sleep in peace, I don't know if he can sleep peacefully tonight." ”

Yang Yuhuan just wanted to comfort the red silk a few words, and the stomachs of the four big men grunted twice in unison.

The originally sad atmosphere was suddenly destroyed, and Yang Yuhuan couldn't help but hide his face and smile: "Did you hear that the cocoon was hungry?" Didn't eat enough in that Zhang Heng's house? ”

Whether or not to eat enough has always been a very serious question for Obaba, and he took the lead in saying: "That Liu's is too much, she will take a look at me when I hold a chopstick dish, and I don't dare to raise my head after eating." ”

Xue Wenyang was also indignant: "It's just good-looking, they all look like that, and they have no appetite when she looks at them." ”

Yang Yuhuan said strangely: "Is the Liu family very unsightly?" ”

"You...... Can't see the beauty and ugliness? Yu Lang was a little unconvinced, Yang Yuhuan's aesthetic standards should be extremely high.

"No, I just don't care too much about whether other people look good or not, because, anyway, they don't look as good as me."

Yang Yuhuan's extremely beautiful face makes people unable to refute at all.

While speaking, Yang Yuhuan's stomach also growled twice, and she looked at the sky in embarrassment: "It seems that we have to eat something." ”

……

……

There is a small noodle stall under the Lion Bridge, which looks unremarkable, but there is a long queue.

The middle-aged man who made noodles was dressed shabby, and his hands and feet were not very neat, so he made it very slowly. The people in line were extremely patient, watching the man and the noodles kneading, although some anxious people whispered a few words, but no one was willing to leave. Looking at the clothes of the people in line, many of them are also glamorous, but for some reason they are so obsessed with the old man's craftsmanship and wait for a bowl of noodles.

Yang Yuhuan closed his eyes and felt the aroma wafting from the diner's bowl, and his expression was intoxicated: "It's so fragrant." ”

"How about we eat this?" Yang Yuhuan opened his eyes and found that only the red silk was following him, and the four men had already lined up, and hurriedly pulled the red silk to seize the position.

The way stall owners charge fees is also very peculiar, and they do not discriminate equally, some people only need one copper plate for a bowl of noodles, and some people ask for five taels of silver.

When he was asked for five taels of silver, he couldn't help it: "Old guy, do you know who this son is, I have spent so long queuing up to give you enough face, and you dare to open your mouth!" ”

"I naturally know He Yingtang's son, otherwise I will not charge you five taels of silver, if you want to eat noodles, pay for it, if you don't want to eat, just walk away, I will never force you to buy and sell."

He Yingtang's face was red and white: "Good, good!" I thought that today was the Shangyuan Festival, and it was not appropriate to be rude, but you old puppet is really too deceitful! ”

"Brother Lang, should we go up and help this stall owner?" Xie Zhiqian asked in a low voice.

Yu Lang shook his head: "This stall owner dares to be so arrogant, there must be something to rely on, let's wait and see what happens, if this He Gongzi really has any excessive actions, I will stop him." ”

As Yu Lang said, although this He Yingtang son said ruthlessly, he didn't dare to do it.

The people in line discussed: "He Gongzi was born into a family, when did he suffer such grievances, the stall owner is afraid that he will be kicked to the iron plate this time." ”

"This is a mistake, the stall owner's noodles are even very fond of eating the Mingfu Lord, he has to line up in person when he comes to eat the noodles, no matter how powerful He Gongzi is, he can still be better than the Mingfu Lord?"

The little guy behind him whispered a few words to He Yingtang, He Yingtang was completely stunned, took out five taels of silver and put it in the stall owner's money basket, and was about to leave.

"Wait, I won't sell this bowl of noodles." The stall owner took out the silver from the money basket and threw it on the ground, and then smashed the bowl and noodles together, without giving any face.

Yu Lang frowned slightly, this stall owner was a little too much.

He Yingtang held back his anger and said a few words from between his teeth: "You make noodles, I give silver, where am I treating you slowly, why don't you give it to me?" ”

The stall owner didn't raise his head, but concentrated on kneading the dough: "Your silver, dirty!" ”

He Yingtang immediately pulled out the sword at his waist: "Old horseman, you have insulted me three or four times, and the eldest husband is angry and blood is splashed five steps, even if there is no place for me He Yingtang to stand in this Bozhou City after tonight, I will kill your majesty." ”

Seeing that the matter was about to make a big fuss, the people in line avoided it one after another, for fear that the long sword in He Yingtang's hand would accidentally hurt him.

Yu Lang was smiling, and led the hungry goods team to grab the front position, and He Yingtang's ability naturally couldn't get into Yu Lang's eyes.

The sword was castrated, and the stall owner dodged unhurriedly, looking extremely dangerous.

It seems to be very dangerous, but in fact, the latter is at ease, and deliberately dodged until the last moment, seeing that the remaining waves of the joints are more calm, and he has turned back to chat with Yang Yuhuan about whether to add some ingredients to the noodles later.

He Yingtang slashed through the air with several swords, and his previous blood had turned into sorrow, he already understood that the strength of this stall owner was far superior to his own, and he was just deliberately teasing.

Another sword missed, He Yingtang was difficult to ride a tiger, and it was not a matter of doing it again, nor was it a matter of stopping, it was embarrassing like a mistake.

"Big brother, I'll give you half a bowl of noodles." A little boy flashed with big eyes and said, "Uncle Liu confiscated my money, I only want ten copper plates, and I want to buy a beautiful lantern for my sister." ”

He Yingtang was stunned, he suddenly understood why the stall owner said that his money was not clean. The He family monopolized the supply of lanterns for the Shangyuan Festival, and the price more than doubled compared to previous years, so that the children of these poor families could not even afford to buy lanterns.

He remembered the happy scene when he was a child playing with lanterns on the Shangyuan Festival, his heart was suddenly very uncomfortable, and the corners of his eyes were a little moist, he picked up the five taels of silver on the ground, wiped it carefully, and sent it to the child's palm: "Thank you for half a bowl of noodles, my brother appreciates it." You can take these five taels of silver and buy the most beautiful lantern for your sister. ”

He Yingtang turned to the people and said, "The price of the He family's shop will be lowered in the future, and the neighbors don't have to travel far to buy things." ”

The crowd cheered endlessly: "We are relieved of the words of the eldest son of the family!" ”

He Yingtang looked at the smiling faces on everyone's faces, and only felt happier than winning the battle just now, and then he realized that sometimes prestige does not have to rely on recklessness.

Uncle Liu, the stall owner, finally showed a smile on his face: "Gongzi He is offended tonight, I will go to He Mansion to thank you another day, and please don't worry about me as a stupid craftsman." ”

He Yingtang hurriedly saluted: "Uncle Liu is like this, if I can't get Uncle Liu's order tonight, I don't know where I did wrong." ”

Yu Lang also felt quite happy, the stall owner's beating was just right and did not hurt the harmony, He Yingtang is also a young man who knows etiquette, this promise can be said to be the best gift received by the people of Bozhou during the Shangyuan Festival.
