Chapter 31: The Foreground: The Lantern Festival (2)

Zhou Sumo smiled at the children's frolicking figures for a while, and then beckoned to the hawker seriously: "We only need this one, and we don't have to look for money." If you're in a hurry to close the stall, you might as well give out all the remaining clay figurines to the children. ”

In this way, the "brother and sister" bought the most ugly clay figurine in the whole stall with a single ingot of gold, and then happily walked to the other stall, leaving only the vendor with a puzzled face.

After being stunned for a long time, the vendor bit the gold in his hand with his teeth, and his face was full of surprise, as if he had picked up a great bargain.

After a while, he said to himself with a puzzled face: "Today's rich people have a really unique vision. ”

After collecting the gold, the vendor shouted to the children in a loud voice: "Children, today is the triennial lantern festival, and two kind guests have bought these clay figurines for you, come and choose your favorite!"

Hearing this, the children flocked to the top with joy, and each of them touched the beautiful clay figurine with their dirty little hands.

The unexpected happiness of the children was given by Xuan Weiyi and Zhou Sumo.

"Wow......" A cry came, and Xuan Weiyi, who was choosing a fan, hurriedly turned around, only to see a little boy about three years old sitting on the ground crying bitterly.

Xuan Weiyi, who hated children very much, unexpectedly hugged the little boy into her arms, her movements were extremely gentle, and she touched his head with great concern: "Little friend, what's wrong with you, why are you sitting here crying alone? Is someone bullying you?"

The child's heart is the clearest, he only knows that it is very safe to be held in his arms by his gentle and kind sister, and he will not think about the origin and purpose of this sister at all.

The little boy who stopped crying put his arm around her neck and said in a small milk voice: "My meat bun can't be found, woo~~ someone's meat bun." ”

After learning the reason, Xuan Weiyi chuckled twice and said, "So that's the case." Don't cry, good boy, can my sister buy you new meat buns to eat?"

After saying this, Xuan Weiyi led the little boy to the bun stall with a smile: "Boss, bring this child two meat buns, the biggest." ”

"Okay!"

The freshly cooked meat buns were still steaming, and in order to prevent the child from being burned, Xuan Weiyi specially used internal force to cool it down before handing it over: "Take it, don't lose it again!"

The little boy with big eyes took the bun with his fleshy little hand: "Thank you, sister, you are such a good person." ”

After a while, a panicked woman hurriedly ran over, and was relieved to see the little boy who was eating meat buns: "You kid, why did you come here, but your mother is worried." ”

The little boy held the meat bun high and said to his mother, "I came here to look for the meat bun, but I didn't find it...... But this nice sister gave me two new ones. ”

The woman in the cloth saw Xuan Weiyi at a glance at the little boy, hurriedly waved at her, and then patted the child's shoulder and asked, "Have you thanked my sister?"

The little boy nodded vigorously as he munched on the meat bun.

Seeing him eating so happily, Xuan Weiyi suddenly felt warm in his heart, it was the first time in so many years that someone used the word "good man" to describe him.

Xuan Weiyi squatted lightly on the ground and kept her eyes level with the child: "No thanks." Today is the Lantern Festival, so be sure to have some fun. ”

After separating from the mother and son, Xuan Weiyi returned to Zhou Sumo's side: "Where are we going to play in a while?"

Zhou Sumo smiled and pointed to the back of the mother and son who were gradually moving away, "I saw it all just now, I didn't expect Yiyi to be so good at coaxing children." ”

Looking at Zhou Sumo, who was full of gratification, Xuan Weiyi also felt an indescribable sense of satisfaction in her heart: "Yes, I know now that I can make others happy and I will get great satisfaction." ”

The two of them walked and strolled, and Xuan Weiyi held the little clay figure in his hand tightly and watched endlessly.

Zhou Sumo put all his eyes on her, "Yiyi, you are so good-looking." ”

In the past, when she was in the Absolute Dust Castle, Nan Rongjin only treated her alone. The overall atmosphere is always serious and cold, and others always look at their master and apprentice with a look of sincere fear.

Today's Xuan Weiyi is wearing good-looking clothes and good-looking hair accessories, and his whole person looks very different from when he was in the Absolute Dust Castle.

At this time, she is completely a child, a child who wants to understand new things when she sees them, and a child who is easy to satisfy.

Looking at Xuan Weiyi, who was full of happiness, Zhou Sumo suddenly stretched out his hand and touched her head: "I hope you can keep calling my brother and laughing happily like this." ”

Vaguely hearing what Zhou Sumo seemed to say, Xuan Weiyi, who was in the midst of the fireworks, asked him, "Brother Su Mo, what are you talking about?" It's too lively here, I didn't hear it too clearly. ”

Zhou Sumo smiled and waved his hand: "It's nothing, I mean where do you want to go next?"

Because many people were running in the same direction, Xuan Weiyi, who was very curious, grabbed a young girl and asked, "This girl, I want to ask, why are everyone running over there?"

"Oh, I don't even know about this, you don't usually go out much!

At that time, there will not only be a lot of beautiful lanterns, but at night, there will also be a game of guessing lantern riddles and grabbing lotus river lanterns, and the final winner can also get a hundred taels of silver!"

After explaining to the two of them, the girl hurried forward, fearing that she would not be able to catch up if she was too late.

After learning the truth, Xuan Weiyi grinned and grabbed Zhou Sumo's arm: "Brother Su Mo, it sounds so lively, let's go and see it too!"

With that, she grabbed Zhou Sumo's arm and ran forward, not paying attention to whether he was interested in it or not.

Zhou Sumo lowered his head in shock, and looked at his arm held by the girl's family in a daze.

It was the first time in his life that someone had held his arm like this.

For a while, such a "sudden" actually caught Zhou Sumo a little off guard, and he didn't know what to do or say at the moment.

Later, he didn't think about anything at all, and just ran forward happily with Xuan Weiyi's pace.

On the other side, Su Yanlin, who was a good leader, took the initiative to bring out his maidservant Gantian'er after hearing that there was a temple fair in Jingyun Continent.

The woman put on a greasy look, like a happy little daughter-in-law. In fact, Su Yanlin tried his best to avoid her overtures and take her out, just because she was also a woman and understood her daughter's thoughts better.

Since the defeat twenty years ago, Su Yanlin has not left the Netherworld Palace for a long time, and now that his wife is pregnant, he is overjoyed and wants to give her a gift to treat her.

"Emperor, look, it's really lively!" Sweet laughter came from the other part of the bridge.

"Today is the triennial temple fair, and it is naturally very lively. Su Yanlin followed closely behind her, and the two of them walked towards this side.

It is not because I am afraid that she will lose it, but because I am afraid that her identity will be exposed to myself and even the entire Netherworld Palace and cause trouble.

Gan Tianer walked all the way and jumped all the way, running like a rabbit possessed: "I heard that there is a lantern exhibition today, you can guess the lantern riddles and grab the lotus river lantern, let's go and see it, okay?"

"That'...... All right. It was rare for Su Yanlin to agree to her request even if he was not interested in it.

"Then I'll go first, you come after me!"

After saying this, Gan Tian'er dragged the jade pendant on Su Yanlin's waist and trotted forward: "When you catch me, I'll return Xuan Jue to you!"

By the time Su Yanlin reacted, Gan Tian'er had already disappeared, and this escape speed was also okay.

"Sweet Child...... Sweet ...... Where are you?" Although he was helpless, Su Yanlin had to run all the way and shout her name all the way to chase after her.

Unconsciously, night fell quietly, Su Yanlin chased Gan Tianer all the way to the vicinity of the colorful lantern show, and there were some colorful and dazzling lanterns in front of him, but there was no shadow of a familiar person.

The jade pendant was very precious to him, and he must not lose it.

Of course, he didn't have the heart to look at those lanterns, even if they attracted people's attention, they couldn't get into Su Yanlin's eyes at all, he just wanted to find his jade pendant now.

Unconsciously, Su Yanlin was also a little anxious: "This bastard thing, where did he go." ”

With a loud sound of gongs and drums, a vast male voice also sounded: "Ladies and gentlemen, ladies and misses!

"Lantern riddles? she just said that she was going to guess the lantern riddles, will she be there?" Recalling what Gan Tian'er said earlier, Su Yanlin turned around and walked over there.

After a short time, he came to a half-person tall stage, originally planning to come here to look for the jade pendant, but from time to time he was squeezed by the flowing crowd.

In a hurry, Su Yanlin shouted two sweet names with his hands in a trumpet shape, but the voice was quickly drowned out in the crowd.

At this time, a middle-aged man stood up on the high platform and struck the gong with another "bang".

The whole audience immediately became silent, and when he saw that everyone was quiet, the middle-aged man said with a smile: "First of all, I want to bless everyone! I wish your parents good health and longevity, love and harmony between husband and wife, and filial piety and prosperity for your children!"

"Okay!" The crowd, which had already quieted down, once again stirred up with the blessings of the middle-aged man, and the applause and shouts continued. Su Yanlin didn't want to see the excitement, he stood in front of the stage and looked around at people, but he never gained anything.

"I'm in a hurry, where has she gone? Tell me to find her, and I'll never take her out again. ”
