"An Yi, why are you here?" Ning Guang stood on his feet in surprise and looked at his good friend he hadn't seen for a long time.

Shen Anyi wore a brand-new pink cotton jacket, jeans embroidered with cartoon characters, small boots, and a handmade rabbit lamp in her hand.

This rabbit lamp is made of bamboo strips to make the outline of a rabbit, and the back is hollow, revealing the inner belly to place candles. The chassis in the shape of "Feng" at the bottom is equipped with four wheels made of wood, and then pasted with white paper to draw eyes. Because the countryside pays attention to the New Year's Festival, it is festive to be colorful, and the body is additionally decorated with red and green paper cut into tassels, which looks like a fluffy rabbit from a distance.

"Do you think this little rabbit is good-looking?" Shen Anyi happily pulled the rabbit lamp forward, "The light at the door is too bright to show it, so I specially pulled it out and took it around." ”

"Beautiful." Subject to the actual conditions of lack of materials at this time, the custom of watching lanterns during the Lantern Festival has almost been abandoned.

The most common thing for people who pay attention to the point is the lamp made of Sprite bottles, the method is to cut off the upper part of the Sprite, cut the middle bottle body into a strand of tassels with a knife, roll it to the lower part to make it like a petal, insert a candle at the bottom, and then make two strands of tassels knotted together, carry it with a small stick, walk around the village at night, the flame of the candle is reflected in turquoise, which is also a novelty that is different from usual.

If the bottom family has nothing and the Sprite lamp is a medium family, the rabbit lamp is a high-end representative at this time.

There are actually many old people in Murakami who know this craft, but not everyone is willing to spend effort and materials to coax the children's family for such a day or two.

Ning Guang's teeth read a private school when he was young, and he claimed to be a scholar, and he never disdained to spend time on these crafts, so even Ning Zong didn't have a rabbit lamp, in the end, the child's house, looking at it was a little unable to walk, "Your grandfather made it for you?" ”

"My grandmother said my grandfather made it for me." Shen Anyi nodded, "But my cousin and cousin also have them, and they are led to other places." ”

"Isn't there anyone with you?" Ning Guang was slightly stunned when he heard this, although the children who can walk at this time are all over the village, and the adults don't care, but the village also acquiesces that Shen Anyi is very delicate, and she will be accompanied by her brothers and sisters when she goes out in the daytime.

Ning Guang suppressed his desire to talk to her more, and persuaded her to go back quickly, "It's dark at night and you can't see clearly, so you better go back quickly." ”

Shen Anyi actually planned to go back, but because she saw Ning Guang, she didn't want to leave: "Xiaoguang, where are you going, I'll go with you?" ”

He took out candy and beef jerky from his pocket, and whispered, "Here you go...... Alas, I didn't know that I would meet you when I came out today, and I didn't bring much. ”

Ning Guang didn't shirk the food, but she didn't ask for it all, she peeled off a piece of chocolate, chewed it a few times and swallowed it hard, and said, "I'm going to deliver rice balls to my aunt's house, and I'm going back soon." ”

Seeing Shen Anyi stuffing the snacks into her bag, she hurriedly stopped it, "Don't give it to me!" I can't eat it if I give it to me, and I'll be angry. ”

"Your family is so bad." Shen Anyi stomped her feet unwillingly, and couldn't help but say, "Why don't I tell my mother, let her tell your family, and let you go to Li Xiaoxiao to study?" I'll bring you delicious food every day! ”

These words reminded Ning Guang that he was kicked out of his grandfather's house a few days ago because he had a good friend, why is he confused now?

She quickly shook her head, saying that she was not good at reading, Li Xiao definitely didn't want her own, and she didn't want to study much...... Seeing Shen Anyi's eyes that instantly dimmed when she heard this, Ning Guang panicked in her heart, and didn't want to stay longer: "I still have to leave beforehand, Anyi, go back quickly, it's so dark and so cold, why are you outside?" ”

said that he didn't wait for Shen Anyi's "hey, hey", and left quickly with the bowl.

Shen Anyi hurriedly followed.

But if it was usual, she also pulled a rabbit lamp at this time - the four wheels of the rabbit lamp were cut by Zhao Fuliang by hand with wood, he is not an orthodox carpenter, and he lacks professional tools, of course, it is impossible to sharpen the wheels to many standards. Originally, it was just something for children to play with, and the workmanship was inevitably a little rough, plus the dirt roads in the countryside, and the people stepped on it after rain and snow, which was quite rugged.

So Shen Anyi ran a few steps after Ning Guang, and the rabbit lamp was tripped and turned over, and the candle in his stomach immediately lit the paper that served as his body!

"My Bunny !!" Shen Anyi noticed that the fire behind her was wrong, looked back, and immediately cried out in a hurry, and rushed up to try to extinguish the fire.

Ning Guang turned around when he heard the sound, and hurriedly went up to pull her in fright: "Be careful, don't be burned by the fire!" ”

She was also in a hurry, and when she saw the ditch next to her, she kicked the rabbit lamp down, "Let the water extinguish the fire!" ”

…… Then the two little girls looked at each other: the rabbit lamp was planted headlong into the ditch with thin ice, and when it was pulled up, there was only a skeleton-like shelf.

The red and green tassel paper, which was quite beautiful a moment ago, was all left behind by the gutter.

Ning Guang felt very guilty: "I'm sorry, I ......"

"It's me who doesn't care." Shen Anyi was a little listless in front of her, obviously she really liked this rabbit lamp, and said, "Forget it, I'll take it back and ask my grandfather if he can fix it." ”

She walked a few steps and turned back, and forced Ning Guang to stuff a snack, "Cousin Jianguo said that he would hide the lighter in the haystack outside the village, as long as these snacks are not opened, they are not easy to break anyway, you can also hide them and eat them slowly!" ”

Ning Guang snorted, and wanted to say that he didn't want it, because if Zhao Fuliang knew, maybe he wouldn't want Shen Anyi, he had already been involved in Abermiao's National Day, and he couldn't even affect Shen Anyi anymore...... But Shen Anyi was in a hurry to go back to repair the rabbit lamp, and she didn't give her a chance to speak, so she waved her hand after stuffing the snacks, and hurriedly left with the embarrassed rabbit lamp.

After she left, Ning Guang hesitated for a while, and finally turned to the outside of the village, and hid the snacks in the grass by the dock in the dark.

She was actually very scared of this process, not only afraid of being bumped into, but also afraid that some demons and monsters would suddenly appear in the dark. So much so that when she finally stood at the door of Ning Yuemei's house, her face was flushed abnormally.

After adjusting her breathing, Ning Guang knocked on the door, and after a while, there were footsteps and her aunt asked with a smile: "Who?" ”

But after Ning Guang reported to his home, the footsteps suddenly turned back.

Ning Guang had to knock on the door hard, and pulled his throat and said that he was sending Tang Yuan, and the muttering inside seemed to be discussing, for a long time, it was Du Qingjun who came to open the door, and as soon as he opened the door, he asked where the Tang Yuan was?

Then without waiting for Ning Guang to say anything, he snatched the bowl containing the rice balls and closed the door with his heels!

Ning Guang hurriedly shouted: "The bowl is for me!" I didn't say that the bowl would be left behind! ”

"It's just such a broken bowl, what is rare?" Ning Yuemei said in a weird manner, "It's just a poor situation like you, who can't turn over in eight lifetimes, be a baby!" ”

She scolded while scolding the rice balls, took the bowl to the door, and after opening it, she stuffed it into Ning Guang's arms, regardless of whether her niece took it well or not, and threw down a sentence: "You take it and beg for food!" ”

Then he slammed the door shut!

Ning Guang hurriedly picked it up, and finally grabbed it before the bowl hit the ground.

At the end, he spat hatefully on the door of his aunt's house, and cursed in a low voice: "Your family can't turn over for eight lifetimes, your family is poor, and you are still a short-lived ghost!" ”

The countryside pays attention to the fact that you can't say unlucky things during the New Year, but the more Ning Yuemei likes to curse people the more this kind of festival is, especially Ning Guang - Ning Guang is really annoyed by this aunt.

didn't dare to reply in front of her, because Ning Yuemei would definitely drag Ning Guang to confront Mrs. Chu and Ning Fulin, but now that the door is closed, Ning Guang is really unhappy if she doesn't scold a few words.

She went back stupidly, and when she entered the door, she saw the family looking at her expectantly: "Why did it take so long to come back?" Did your aunt leave you talking? ”

“…… No. Ning Guang was stunned and said, "Auntie didn't let me in." ”

"Then why did you go out for half a day?" When Mrs. Chu heard this, she suddenly asked in an unkind tone, "Did you run away where you went crazy?" ”

Ning Fulin asked on the side: "Did you run to find the beauty next door?" ”

"No, no, I didn't go!" Ning Guang shuddered and hurriedly said, "I...... I am...... I ......"

In a hurry, she said half-truthfully, "I knocked on my aunt's door for a long time and they didn't open it, and then I said that they opened the door because I gave rice balls." ”

"And then?" When Mrs. Chu and Ning Fulin heard this, they both frowned, glanced at each other, and asked.

Ning Guang said: "Then the army came out to take the bowl, and closed the door, I said that Mu Yan didn't even give them the bowl, and my aunt scolded me." It was a long time before they handed the bowl out, and I returned. ”

As soon as these words were finished, not only Mrs. Chu and Ning Fulin, but Ning Yue's face was also very ugly, and she whispered: "Yuemei really doesn't want to associate with us, right?" ”

"It's all you stingy!" Old woman Chu grabbed the tea on the table without warning, and splashed it on Ning Guang's face, "It's just a bowl, what do you have to ask for it back?" Will you take it back and beg for food on the street? Yes? Your aunt was unhappy about the holiday, and now you're happy? ”

When Ning Yue'e heard this, she also helped her scold Ning Guang, saying that Ning Guang was not good, which hindered her sisterhood with Ning Yuemei.

Ning Guang lowered his eyebrows and looked at the opportunity to hide in the stove, listening to them discuss this matter in a solemn tone outside, but he was happy in his heart.

Mrs. Chu and Ning Fulin have always said that their beautiful heads are useless, and they can't count on them when they grow up-but aren't they worried about Ning Yuemei's turn of face at this time?

It can be seen that they are all nonsense, An Yi is right, the beauty is no worse than the Niu Lao family!

Because of this inference, even if he was beaten and scolded, Ning Guang was in a better mood for a night.

The next day, Miao Guoqing started to work, and the village elementary school started with it, and seeing the few vacated seats in the classroom, Ning Guang's mood fell, and Shen Anyi turned away in the end.

Shen Anyi's transfer brought Ning Guang not only the blow of separating from his friends, but also the schadenfreude and even ridicule of many classmates.

Among them, Zhao Xiaoying is the most active.
