Chapter 46: The Monkey Reunited After a Long Absence

Yu Canxing rushed to the monkey show stands, and before he saw the monkey, he first saw a gong stretched out by a person. She had also seen juggling on Yuzhou Street, and knew that this was a reward, so she hurriedly asked Lijiao to take a copper plate for a reward.

Today is the first day of the Lunar New Year, everyone is richer than usual, and more generous than usual, the middle-aged people who receive the reward money are festive and can talk, and they begged in the crowd for a while.

When there were no new arrivals, he put away the reward money and gestured to the stage.

The stands are a little high, and Yu Can can only see the appearance of two little monkeys on tiptoe. The little golden monkey moves extremely fast, drilling through one ring of fire after another, while also dodging obstacles thrown by its master.

The little white monkey is very human, standing on the edge of the stands and waving his whip proudly, it really looks like it is directing the master and the other monkey, which makes the audience laugh for a while.

This is the effect that the monkey man wants to achieve, seeing that the audience likes it, he also deliberately compensated the little white monkey carefully, and he bowed and bowed, and the appearance of the dog's legs made people coax again and again.

"This little white monkey is so good." Yu Can stared at it with a good eye, the fluffy white hair flew with its movements, and the big and round eyes were inlaid with a pair of black pupils like glass beads.

The little white monkey crossed his waist with one hand and waved a small leather whip with the other, sometimes frowning and holding his forehead, as if he felt helpless for the "clumsiness" of the monkey and the little golden monkey.

Halfway through the performance on the stage, the people who wanted to reward money got into the crowd again, smiling at the people, and most of the people who were watching the excitement took out copper plates and gave a second reward generously.

"For the sake of the little white monkey, I am willing to pay more money!"

The two little monkeys have their own cleverness, and their temperaments are obviously different, compared to the more docile golden monkeys, Yu Can really likes to pretend to be fierce little white monkeys.

Yu Shuo and Li Yue saw that she liked it, and asked the little girl to prepare more rewards, they didn't like cute things like the little girl, but they also thought that this monkey show was better than what they had seen before.

"Aunt, girl, it's not good, the copper plate was taken away!"

The pear was about to take out the copper plate from the purse, but he touched his waist, where is there any purse? She was so anxious that her eyes were red, and she wanted to pinch herself a few times to relieve her anger.

Yu Can is very good to Peach Branch and Pear Tree, because she sees it clearly, and these two maids treat her sincerely. Seeing that Li Shao was shocked and angry, she looked like she wanted to kneel on the spot and admit her mistake, she quickly waved her hand to show that she didn't care.

"Don't cry, there are only a few copper plates in total, and if they fall off, they will fall off. If you don't want to go, go back and embroider me some beautiful handkerchiefs. ”

Taozhi pulled the redder pear tips under her eyes, and persuaded softly: "The girl said it doesn't matter, just be careful next time you go out." ”

The crowd around was noisy, and the three masters and servants were very close, and the sound of their voices was not small, but they were quickly drowned out in the noisy sound of gongs and drums.

After a burst of gongs and drums, Yu Can heard his brother's little maid and his cousin's little maid say that the money bag was gone!

"Everyone, keep your money bags! There are thieves here! ”

"A thief! Someone's stealing! ”

"Oops, I've lost my money bag too!"

"Which brother on the road is so damaging to yin virtue that he doesn't rest for the New Year?"

The people who gathered here to watch the monkey show, but all of them wore money bags and purses, and all of them were stolen by thieves.

Those who didn't lose their money lamented the decline of the world, and said some words to comfort everyone by losing their wealth and avoiding disasters, but most of them copied their hands, quite like watching a play, and they all had a smile of schadenfreude in their eyes.

"This thief is too powerful, isn't it?" Yu Can saw the crowd around her shouting that they were being stolen, so much that she was dumbfounded, "How long has the monkey show been performing, and it has stolen so many people!" ”

The broken silver that Li Yu hid in his belt was unknowingly touched away, and he was so angry that he wanted to grow a beard on the spot and blow it. "Little thief, Lao Tzu wishes you a long life than an epiphany!"

Compared with Yu Can and Li Yu, Yu Shuo seemed very calm.

He didn't have a copper plate on his body, which gave him a sense of superiority to watch the excitement, and he learned to put his hands on his chest and said happily: "Uncle Cousin, Cancan, lose your wealth and avoid disasters." ”

Yu Can looked at him like a fool: "Brother, your silver has also been stolen, why are you so proud?" ”

Yu Shuo was right: "Because it wasn't stolen from me." ”

The more Li thought about it, the more angry he became, and shouted with the crowd to report to the official, to catch the thief and retrieve the silver. Yu Shuo still looked like he liked to see it, and he coaxed from time to time.

The monkeys on the high platform couldn't go on, and the two little monkeys sat on the shoulders of the monkey puppeteers, rolling their eyes to watch the people under the stage.

Yu Can saw that the little white monkey looked like a sentient being, and she felt a little funny, and her afterglow suddenly swept to the monkey man sneaky, and looked at the middle-aged man below who wanted to reward money, which made her have a thought in her heart.

"Brother, cousin," Yu Can leaned over to the two of them, beckoning them to bury them lower, "It doesn't seem like something is right with the monkey people, don't they deliberately attract people to see the excitement and take the opportunity to let people steal things, right?" ”

When the two of them heard this, they immediately turned their heads, and when they saw the monkey trickster jumping off the stage from behind with two little monkeys, the middle-aged man who wanted to reward money was also gone.

Li Yue scolded in a low voice, wanting to call the crowd to arrest people together, but he couldn't come up with evidence after thinking about it, so he decided to follow. "Big nephew, come with me!"

Yu Shuo rolled up his sleeves and took the little guy to run, squeezed two steps in the crowd, and then turned to Yu Can who was trying to keep up and said, "Sister, don't come, go to the dragon dance and wait for us!" ”

Yu Can didn't want to be obedient, but when he thought that his father and mother were talking about his life all day long, and today's capital was not as peaceful as in previous years, and he couldn't find it if he was lost, he was still a little scared.

"Don't go, girl," Lizi persuaded at this time, "There are many flowers in the Chinese New Year's Eve, and maybe there are still people mixed in the streets." ”

"Okay, let's go over there and wait." When Yu Can heard this, he obediently followed the two maids and a group of small maids, and squeezed in the crowd for a long time before reaching a spacious place.

"Girl, look at the ground, isn't that the little white monkey just now?" With sharp eyes, the peach branch saw a white shadow brush on the ground, drilling at people's feet.

The little white monkey, with one paw and two legs, cleverly avoiding people, was running towards them. Its left paw was clutched on its stomach, and a red stain on its white fur was faintly visible, like bloodstains.

"It looks like it's hurt." Yu Can watched the white shadow getting closer and closer, and couldn't help but squat down to look, the little white monkey seemed to feel something, and actually paused in the crowd, squeaked and pounced on her.

"Girl, be careful!"

"Get out of the way!"

The maid was scared, this little thing looked harmless, but the claws were very sharp, and it would be bad if he accidentally scratched Yu Can.

Yu Can felt a fever in the back of her head at this time, and a picture flashed in her mind, which made her eyes widen involuntarily.

The little white monkey did not hurt people as everyone thought, but stood outside the encirclement, holding his left paw and looking at Yu Can aggrievedly, with a pair of inky black eyes wet, as if he had met a long-lost relative.
