Chapter Twenty-Six: Lively

"The lady used to make fun of me." Chunxi bit her lower lip and preached with shame and anger.

The little girl was so angry that she couldn't even take care of eating.

........................................

Pedestrians come and go on the street, these two days seem to be more lively, there are handsome daughters on both sides of the streets and alleys carrying flower baskets on the side of the road, the begging festival is approaching, and there are people in Qi County who have specially opened up a Qiao market, specializing in selling some of the things that the daughters need.

At night, it was even more prosperous, and by the moonlight, colorful lanterns were hung up in every house, and the girls who usually hid at home were released at the moment.

The aroma is overwhelming.

Yue Niangzi has not yet passed this festival, and Chunxi seems to be too, and she went out before that day.

Naturally, she agreed.

The white jade gardenia inserted in the thin-necked bottle on the table a few days ago has been defeated, and when I go out at this moment, I naturally have to buy more back.

Zhou Rui has not come over since he went back, and only sent someone to deliver a letter, saying that his family is tight and it is inconvenient to go out.

"That's just as well." Yue Niangzi nodded yes, and the baby bump was thrown under her nose-

It's easy to find it back, so naturally you have to watch it tighter, and the letter also invited her to go with you on July 8.

July 7 is the Begging Festival, and they are willing to go after a festival, but I don't know if there are any daughters in the Zhou Mansion to participate in this festival.

The lively shouting on both sides of the street brought back the thoughts of Yue Niangzi, and Chunxi had already gone to the stall in front.

Yue Niangzi walked over quickly, and saw that this was a candy man's shop, and the stall owner was a man of nearly fifty, with a serious expression and majesty, but the sugar man pinched out was lifelike.

Chunxi even picked out the already pinched one and took it out in her hand with satisfaction.

Yue Niangzi asked for a candy bunny.

There is no booth, the master has to do it on the spot, and Mrs. Yue is also waiting on the side.

Pulling sugar, latte art, pinching sugar, the master did it smoothly and pleasing to the eye, and people gathered around the stall. Yue Niangzi was squeezed out, Chunxi was still guarding inside, and Yue Niangzi, who was standing on the periphery, smiled and sighed bitterly.

As the sky grew dark, someone walked past her with a lantern.

The gong next to it struck three times in a row, the sound was crisp and deafening, Yue Niangzi covered her ears and turned around to look, the gong was struck by a big man, and next to the big man stood a woman in a bright red brocade dress, wearing a few blooming gardenias on her head, the flowers were white, and the people were charming.

She walked out gracefully.

Everyone stopped to watch, and the people who had just rushed to the candy man shop also shifted their attention, and Chunxi was the last to come out.

She took a handful of sugar men in her left hand, and dragged the sugar rabbit she wanted in her right hand.

"It's so cute." Yue Niangzi turned around and took it, the rabbit was a pale yellow, only the size of a girl's palm, delicate and lifelike, and the eyes were made of full sesame seeds.

Yue Niangzi raised the sugar rabbit in front of her eyes and stared carefully, and the syrup fragrance came to her nose with a faint burnt smell.

"It's so pretty." She admired, and Chunxi also nodded on the side.

She had four in her hand, a candy rabbit, two weaver girl statues, and a coiling dragon with bared teeth and claws.

Someone squeezed in from Yue Niangzi, but she didn't care too much, but took a few steps back against the crowd and stood in front of the stall that was being neglected on the side.

Chunxi, who was holding the heart and liver baby, naturally didn't have the time to care about those, but the very happy Suiyue lady stood aside. Playing with the sugar man in his hand, he was reluctant to enter.

Yue Niangzi was also reluctant.

Holding the skewer and turning it around his fingertips, the crystal sugar slices reflected the excitement of the red lantern lit up next to him, which was even more dazzling.

In the end, I couldn't resist the temptation, and took a tentative bite, sticky, and sweet, sweet all the way from my mouth to my heart, soft, as if I had fallen into the clouds.

Chunxi is better than her, perhaps, she has eaten it before.

So, haven't you eaten it yourself? She looked intently ahead, and as the night had fallen, lanterns hung on both sides of the streets, and oil lamps were lit in the shops.

The night really began.

The stall in front was packed with people, the crowd was noisy and lively, and the whole street was rushing to get past it.

"Bang bang." The slightly muffled gong sound sounded three more times, and the crowd, which was still lively just now, fell silent in an instant, as if the acupuncture points were instantly fixed.

Lady Yue's eyes widened, trying to see what was so shocking going on there.

His eyes searched for a moment, but he didn't find a space that his eyes could touch into. The tall and short figure blocked that place out of ten.

Yue Niangzi sighed and moved her gaze to Chunxi.

She was fine, she was not affected by that place at all, Gu Zi played with the sugar man in her hand, and the Yue Niangzi walked over to her and sighed again.

She seemed to be aware of it, and raised her eyes to look at Yue Niangzi, "What's wrong?" She said, and then followed the gaze of Yue Niangzi to the place where everyone gathered. Does the lady want to go? She said with her head held high.

Yue Niangzi wanted to nod her head.

was preempted by Chunxi, and she continued, "But again, can't squeeze in? "The first two words are fine, but the last four words raise the volume, as if... There was a hint of disdain and contempt in his tone.

Yue Niangzi turned her head to look at her in shock.

The lady wants to go, but can't squeeze in?

What do you mean? Disdain? Despise? Yue Niangzi opened her mouth wide and stared at the thin and delicate woman in front of her. Obviously... She was surprised, even stunned.

Chunxi was amused by the series of expressions of Yue Niangzi, she sneered, with a smile at the corners of her eyes and eyebrows, "Didn't the lady say a few days ago that she especially enjoyed Chunxi's nagging in your ear?" Why did I catch Yue Niangzi off guard with such a joke today? She said this with a little seriousness, and finally couldn't help but laugh softly.

Yue Niangzi frowned.

The woman in front of her covered her mouth and chuckled, her eyes reflected a warm light, and the whole person was bathed in a shallow smile, which made people reluctant to look away.

Little girl, when she grows up, she knows that she is making fun of herself. She frowned, wondering if it was right or wrong for her to cure her stutter.

"Does the lady regret curing Chunxi?" She put down the palm that was covering her lips, reached over and grabbed Yue Niangzi's arm, and then spoke, "However, there is no regret medicine in this world." She put her fluffy head on her shoulder.

"You can't regret it."

"But I regret it." Yue Niangzi tilted her head and grabbed her arm.

"Huh? Lady, I'm just joking casually, but it's not true. She explained.

"Just."

"Joke."

"Little girl, you are so bold that you dare to make a joke about me?" Yue Niangzi stretched out her other hand and grabbed Chunxi's right shoulder, and Chunxi was also anxious and wanted to break free desperately. However, whether it is height or strength, she is no match for Yue Niangzi.

"Lady, I was wrong." She raised her head to reveal a bitter gourd face, pitifully admitting her mistake.
