"If you think about it seriously, have you two never gone out to visit a temple fair at night?" Seeing a group of children running towards him, Yan Bo pulled Qin Zheng, stopped Shen Haolin and Shen Cha, and turned sideways to let the children pass. , "Are you feeling particularly uncomfortable?"
"It's a bit unaccustomed. When we go out at night, we either arrange arrests or arrange the next battle. It's the first time like this tonight." Shen Cha touched his nose and looked at the lively market, "Now this It looks really different from what we remember!" She raised her head and looked at the sky full of stars, then looked at the smiling adults and children playing wantonly around her, and sighed, "I have never seen it before. I never thought that Jiapingguan City would become what it is now."
"Yes!" Shen Haolin reached out to support a little boy who was running too fast and almost fell. "Run slowly and watch the road. Don't fall!"
"Thank you, brother!" The little boy bared his teeth at Shen Haolin, greeted his little friend and ran forward.
After all the children had disappeared, everyone continued to move forward.
"I originally thought that the lantern festival was just about looking at the lanterns and guessing lantern riddles, but I didn't expect that there were also vendors selling food." Shen Cha curiously looked at the snacks in the hands of passers-by passing her, "I don't even close the stalls at night. Family reunion?"
"Some people just want to make more money during the New Year, festivals, and temple fairs, so that after spring, the children, elderly, and women at home can live a little more comfortably." Uncle Yan sighed, "Although we don't have a lot of money here. Like Xijing, the gap between the rich and the poor is so huge, but we cannot deny that there are still some people who are not living so well off." He stopped in front of a stall selling vermicelli soup and handed it to the stall owner. With a small piece of silver, I bought ten bowls of vermicelli soup and distributed it to everyone except Qin Zheng, Shen Cha and Song Jinyu. "It's delicious."
"Conscience!" Jin Miaomiao nodded towards the stall owner, "Real ingredients and full of flavor!"
"Thank you for your compliments, guests!" The stall owner saluted and watched the group of people walk past him. He looked at the broken silver in his hands and was surprised, "Hey, guest! Guest! The guest is here to stay, and he still hasn’t got his change yet!”
"Stop yelling, boss, I gave you this without thinking of asking you to find it." The diners standing nearby saw the puzzled expression on the stall owner's face and sighed, "Do you know who these people are? ?”
"No matter who they are, I can't mess with other people's money!"
"He gave you broken silver. Except for the ten bowls of soup, the rest will be rewarded to you." Another diner explained, "The old man who bought soup from you just now is the steward of the Zhenguo Palace. Standing behind him The man and woman beside me are Lord Zhen Guo and General Shen, and they are followed by the Marquis of Wuding."
"Ah? Ah!" The stall owner opened his mouth in shock. He didn't expect that such a big shot would buy his soup, "I...I..."
"Hey, don't be so surprised. It's a truce now. There's no war to worry about. You'll be able to meet them on the street in a short while. You'll just get used to it." The third diner finished his soup and wiped his mouth. , handed the boss a few coins, "See you later!"
The stall owner was still immersed in the surprise and joy of meeting the big man, and had no idea what was happening around him.
"The boss just now looked unfamiliar. He didn't seem to be around here very often." Shen Cha turned around and took a look from a distance, "Has a new person come to the city recently?"
"It's just that you don't go shopping often." Uncle Yan raised his eyebrows, "That stall is usually placed at the north gate. Now the north gate is not allowed to go in and out, so it was forced to move here. In addition to vermicelli soup, his store also I know how to make duck fat roasting, and it has a unique flavor." He pointed to a stall not far away, "There are lantern riddles over there, you kids, go join in the fun!"
"Okay!" Shen Cha took Shen Haolin's arm and walked a few steps quickly to stand in front of the lantern riddles stall that Uncle Yan mentioned. He looked at the lantern riddles hanging on it very seriously, "Boss, from right to left Count, the first one is rosin, the second one is coriander, the third one is..."
"The third one is Spring Breeze." Shen Haolin reached out and pulled Shen Cha towards him to prevent her from being hit. Then he looked at the stall owner, "Boss, are we right?"
"The young one has met the Duke and the eldest lady, and their answers are correct!" When the stall owner saw Shen Haolin and Shen Cha, he bowed politely, "The difficulty of these three lantern riddles is Different, the prizes to choose from are also different." He pointed at the small objects on his left hand side, and then pointed to the ones on his right hand side, "Or you two can continue to guess the riddles. If you guess more correctly, you can There are even more prizes to choose from.”
"Pen holder, ruler, slingshot..." Shen Cha looked over them one by one. There were also some toys that children liked. Then he looked at the things on the right side of the stall owner. They were mostly small ornaments. Such things are very useful for town. There are many in the Duke's Mansion. But those bits and pieces of gadgets suited her very well.
"Like it?" Shen Haolin looked at her expression and said, "Take whichever one you like."
"Come here!" Shen Cha waved to Li Yu, Zhang Jing, and Mo Kai, "Look, if you like something, my sister will give it to you." Seeing the three children swarming up to choose gifts, she raised her head and looked He looked at the stall owner and asked, "Are these... all made by the boss?"
"Yes, the young one is a carpenter. These are all made by the young one." The stall owner scratched his head and said sheepishly, "The young one is not good at learning and his craftsmanship is not good."
"No, it's already very good. Many details have been well handled." Seeing that the three children had already been chosen, Shen Cha nodded slightly towards the stall owner, "Excuse me!"
The stall owner watched the group leave and breathed a sigh of relief. Everyone said that the people in the Shen Jiajun were very kind from top to bottom. Although they were very skilled in martial arts, they would never bully others. Before the contact, he thought it was nonsense, but when he met tonight, he really lived up to his reputation.
Looking at the small slingshots in the hands of the three children, Shen Haolin took Li Yu's one, tried it for a while, raised his eyebrows, "The slingshot is good." Then, he returned the slingshot to Li Yu, "You've finished practicing. Slingshot, I can take you hunting in the spring.”
"My lord, when can we learn archery?" Li Yu looked at Shen Haolin eagerly, then at Shen Cha, "We..."
"I have to ask your senior sister." Shen Haolin smiled mischievously, "Senior sister, when do you plan to teach archery to the younger juniors?"
"As soon as your slingshot can hit the target with perfect accuracy, that's when you start learning archery." Shen Cha glanced at Uncle Yan, and licked his lips at the children, "Uncle Yan, do you think so?"
"Yes, you have to ask Uncle Yan to teach you. He is a strong expert in this field."
"You two little guys!" Uncle Yan pointed at Shen Haolin and Chen Cha, "Okay, you can let me teach you. Just like General Shen said, when does the slingshot hit the target with perfect accuracy, when does it start? ." He patted the three children and said, "It's hard to be an archer, and even harder to be a magic bow. You still have a long way to go!"
"What Uncle Yan said is that you must practice diligently and not slack off." Seeing the three children solemnly agreeing, Shen Haolin touched their heads and looked at the lanterns around them, "There are many types of lanterns this year. "
"Well, we have a lot more at home." Shen Cha tilted his head and looked at a lotus lantern, "This one is quite exquisite."
Shen Haolin glanced at Merlin, who nodded, ran over to pay the money, took the lotus lantern and handed it to Shen Cha.
"Brother, I just think this looks pretty good, and I have no intention of wanting this." Shen Cha was holding the lotus lantern and couldn't laugh or cry, "I can't praise you for what you want, brother, right?"
"But that's what I mean. If you like it, buy it to avoid regrets." Shen Haolin nodded, pulling her to follow Qin Zheng and Uncle Yan, slowly wandering on the street, "When I was little, Cha'er She is not in good health and rarely goes out during the day, let alone at such a cold night. Cold sickness is no joke. Without tea, I can't leave her alone at home and go out to play by myself. So, You can't appreciate the joy of shopping." He smiled at Shen Cha, "Just let me have a good time today, okay?"
"Xiao Cha, just let Haolin have a good time, so that he won't always feel regretful." Uncle Yan looked at Shen Haolin, then at Shen Cha, and said with a bad smile, "Besides, this is what he should do as an elder brother. "
So, in the following time, as long as it was something that Shen Cha had agreed to or his eyes stayed on for a long time, Shen Haolin bought them all with a wave of his hand, so that not only did Shen Cha himself carry them in both hands The plum grove, plum bamboo, red leaves, golden miaomiao, and even Song Jinyu's hands are all gifts belonging to Chencha.
"Hey, I didn't spend this night wandering in vain. I gained a lot!" After wandering for almost half an hour, the group met Shen Jiu, who was leading a patrol on the way back to the Duke's Mansion. They saw that everyone was packed with bags. Xiao Bao smiled and said, "Do you want us to help take it back?"
"Xiaojiu, it's not that we have a lot of harvest, these are your sister's things. Your brother is really rich and willful. Your sister buys whatever she likes, and doesn't even hit her. It's really enviable. Ah! And we are just helping to carry it." Xue Ruitian put all the things in Shen Jiu's hands, "Come on, come on, everyone give the things to Xiaojiu and let them take them back to the house."
"What about you?" Shen Jiu waved to the guards behind him and took the things in their hands, "What are you doing?"
"Go and watch the night training in the army!"
"Okay!" Shen Jiu nodded and smiled at Song Jinyu and Jin Miaomiao, "Let's go!"
