Chapter 9: Stars and Flowers
Hearing Brother Nian say this, my heart was as sweet as the osmanthus cake I had just eaten. (Actually, Brother Nian is really like his real brother to me.) If you don't care about me being so strict, then you're a perfect brother!) However, now that I'm on the same front as Blackie, of course I have to protect it.
I nodded vigorously, "I didn't lie to my brother, Xiao Hei was very good to me, and he didn't bully me much." (Actually, Xiao Hei was also a little moved when he heard it, the last incident, he actually bullied this dragon boy, but now he has hidden this matter for his own sake.) I won't bully it anymore in the future, and the dragon boy will not only have the owner to protect her in the future, but I will also cover her! It secretly decided in its mind. Moreover, it found that it could still smell the fragrance of this kid by climbing on this kid's arm, and it didn't know where it came from, but it was quite comfortable anyway. )”
Brother Nian looked at me for a while, and in those big clear eyes, it seemed that he was really not lying. and Ah Yin, who seems to be very close to An An. (Anyway, when did the two of them get so close, Ah Yin didn't climb anyone's arm except me before, and even his father couldn't.) )
He looked at Ah Yin again, "Okay! Now that An An has spoken, it's not your fault! I apologize for the murder just now. It's just that you are not allowed to bully An An in the future, do you hear me? Xiao Hei waved his tail happily and returned to Brother Nian's arm, "I know, I will protect the dragon boy with my master in the future!"
After successfully fooling Brother Nian over, the two of us shouldn't have taken out a hat for all three of us, we don't want to cause the scene just now, it's better to keep a low profile. The lively part of the temple fair is not just a lot of food. Along the way, I was dazzled by the wonderful spirit animal performances and challenging games.
I went to play the game, I didn't expect Brother Nian to be so powerful, of course, I was not to be outdone, plus Xiao Hei's assist artifact, we got the prize softly. We couldn't take it anymore, so we gave it to the kids who were staring at the two of us. (Some of the kids were a few years older than both of us, but they weren't as good at playing games as we were!) Anyway, we can't take it, but we can all make us happy by giving it to them! Why not!)
I think we came to this temple fair to have a big swing. (I watched the owners of the game stalls whose faces were about to change, and the children next to me were heckling excitedly.) [Uh, as if we're kids too.] Hurry up and take Brother Nian to the next house, you have to give these vendors a little way to live!)
Eat and drink to your heart's content, and have fun. Time passed little by little, the sun had slowly set into the horizon, and above the sky, only the red clouds that had not yet burned were left. Because we have too many things in our hands, Brother Nian asked me to wait for him here first, and he went to find a place to store the things first, and then we enjoyed the temple fair at night. (He asked me to stay here obediently, because I was still a little worried about being alone, after all, An An was not yet a year old, so he left Xiao Hei with me.) [By the way, you're very young!] ])
I was alone, no, and there was a snake standing on this evening corner, watching the afterglow on the horizon, and suddenly, there was a special stall that caught my attention. There were a lot of men and women gathered around, and they couldn't see what was inside, and they all came out with a bouquet of flowers in their hands.
"Xiao Hei, let's go there and have a look!" It climbed on my arm and poked his head out, "Dragon boy, but the master told us to stay here and wait for him, what if he can't find us later?" ”
"He'll recognize us at a glance when we're so close!" But...... (This stall is just a street away from us.) "I didn't even wait for it to finish, I just took it over there. (Blackie: Master!) It's not that I didn't stop it, but I was powerless and couldn't stop it!) The outside of the stall was already three stories inside and three stories outside, but I was small now, and I thought it was just a smooth little loach, so I squeezed to the front.
Those gorgeous flowers lit up my eyes all at once. The whole stall is filled with a strong smell of flowers. The stall owner was also a kind old woman, and the man and woman next to her handed over the change, and she looked up and down, and tied one of the flowers from the stall into a bouquet. (And these flowers don't seem to be like the ones that bloom brightly on the roadside, they all have the shape of stars.) What a novelty! Take a closer look, the bouquet that this old grandmother tied up is very suitable for the temperament of the person who came to buy it!
The flowers are really brightly blooming, and this is the first time I've seen such flowers. My heart is flooded with little ninety-nine, or I will buy a bouquet too. After this fair, I will definitely have to come to the land again, so I might as well cover it with a water balloon and raise it in the sea. Thinking about it, I acted!
Struggling to squeeze to the front. I smiled sweetly at the old woman, ready to give her the change I had on me. "Grandma, get me a bouquet of these flowers too!" The people around me couldn't help but chuckle when they heard my immature voice.
Even the old grandmother didn't take my change, and looked at me with a smile, "Child, is it the first time to come to this temple fair?" I nodded, I used to stand on the top of the city wall and watch, and the only thing I could reach was the market in the sea. As for the temple fairs on land, this is really my first contact.
She took another one out of the flowers, and it was an orange one, which looked like a little sun. (Well, nothing more than the shape of a star.) I'll give you this flower, and she gave me a packet wrapped in paper, "This is its seed, and I'll give it to you." But this kind of flower has a special meaning for special people, you are still young, and when you grow up, you can come to me to buy bouquets. ”
I looked at her with some confusion: "What's the point of this flower?" (I'm only now realizing that all the men and women around me seem to be of marriageable age.) Just me a little child, in the middle of them. Before the old woman could speak, the people around me told me with a smile, "These flowers are called star flowers, and they look like stars in the sky." The star and the heart are the same as the word, so it also means that the heart is in touch. This is the flower that my brother and sister use to express their hearts to the person they like! And the star flowers planted by this grandmother, I heard that those who bought his flowers to confess their hearts have all been done!"
"I have someone I like! Well, Father! Mother! Two sisters! Brother Nian! Oh, yes, and Blackie!" My language was sincere, but everyone around me laughed with good-naturedness, "You kid! This liking is different. When you grow up, you will understand that this is a love that requires two people, a lifetime, or even several lifetimes, to be together. Of course, this was something I couldn't grasp when I was younger. But let me find someone to be with for the rest of my life. Well, it would be great if even my brother could spoil me for the rest of my life!
"I see, thank you grandma, thank you brother and sister!" I was getting ready to walk out of the crowd with those things. But I heard a familiar shout "An An!", which was the voice of Brother Nian, and I quickly squeezed out of the crowd. He was running in my direction, and when he saw my small figure in the crowd, he hugged me, his tone was full of worry and anxiety, mixed with a hint of anger, "An An, didn't I tell you not to run around?" Why are you here again?"
He looked at Xiao Hei on my arm again, "Ah Yin, didn't I tell you to stop her?" What do you think? "Xiao Hei is obviously a little aggrieved, it stopped, it can't be stopped! I also felt that I might have made Brother Nian angry, and I was almost out of breath when he hugged me. "Nian, Brother Nian, flowers!"
He was really angry and hateful, and An An was too disobedient, but he couldn't control him. (Whenever I want to teach him a lesson, I can't do it when I face this lovely An An in front of me.) He gritted his teeth and said, "What flower?" ”
I took out the star flower like a treasure and shook it gently in front of my brother. The fiery orange is not just like the sun. This flower reflected a bright smiling face, which made Brother Nian stunned, but he quickly reacted, "Are you just for this?" Running around! Isn't it a little too capricious? ”
I wasn't hit by him, but patted my little breast, "I can tell you, this is not an ordinary flower, my brothers and sisters here told me that this is called a star flower." If a person gives it to another person he likes. And if that person accepts it, the two of them can be together forever!" I paused again, "This flower is for Brother Nian!" My brother looked at me with surprised eyes, and then at Xiao Hei, who immediately shrank back.
An An must have misunderstood the meaning of this flower, this is used between lovers! What the hell did Xiao Hei do at that time!" Ahem, An An, I can't ask for this flower! We're both boys!"
I'm a little frustrated" but, but grandma, and those older siblings said that this is for people who like it. I, I like Brother Nian!" As soon as these words came out, Brother Nian's face turned red, and he gently patted me on the head, "An An, this, what they say they like is different!"
I was a little angry, "My brother is unwilling to accept my flowers, does he hate An An?" An An is too naughty, my brother must not like An An anymore! Brother doesn't want it, then I'll give this flower to Xiao Hei!" As I spoke, I shoved the flowers into Little Black. But where does Xiao Hei dare to pick it up, the owner is still here! Is this dragon boy trying to trap me?
Brother Nian was obviously in a hurry, and snatched the flowers from my hand, "Okay, okay, I accept it!" (Alas!) Think of it as the flower of our friendship! When An An grows up, she will understand. )
Seeing that Brother Nian took the flowers, I was also instantly happy. He hurriedly stuffed the seeds of this bag of flowers into his hand, "This is its seed, Xinghua, when there is always a thanks, you can take this flower seed back and plant it every year." Wouldn't that mean I give you flowers every year? He reluctantly took the bag of flower seeds, "Okay!" (But he definitely didn't expect that he would be in the back, but this flower was rare!)
