Chapter 18 Mid-Autumn Festival

The four of them met and walked forward along with the flow of people. After walking for a while, they were finally able to admire the lanterns hanging on both sides and the various light cars slowly turning on the roadside.

This is a more prosperous capital city than Yizhou City. Not only the three younger ones of Bai Shan, but also Bai Dalang were attracted by the excitement.

Acrobatics, lanterns, all kinds of strange toys and games that have never been seen before, many of which are seen for the first time.

They thought they wouldn't be able to see many things on this one street, but who knew that it took them more than an hour just to tour this one street.

When they finally came back, they all had several lanterns in their hands, which they had won by guessing riddles. Only Bai Dalang really liked a palace lantern, so he couldn't help spending money to buy it.

Man Bao, Bai Shan and Bai Erlang despised this from the bottom of their hearts. This lantern cannot be kept until next year, it is just for fresh viewing.

If you win, you will take it home and hang it for two days before throwing it away. Spending so much money to buy a lamp is not cost-effective.

Man Bao didn't realize that his idea of ​​spending money was getting closer and closer to that of Lao Zhoutou, and Bai Shan and Bai Erlang didn't realize that their ideas were almost the same as Man Bao's.

The only person who is sober is probably Daji, but what can he say?

He actually thought this was a good idea.

Masters, it’s better to save some money than spend money randomly, right?

The group of people returned home carrying a bunch of lanterns, and each found a good place to hang their own lanterns under the eaves.

Bai Shan and Man Bao had the most lanterns. They didn't know what was wrong with them, but they just liked to guess riddles. They even gave away many people along the way. Basically, the lanterns they took home were the lanterns they liked.

Now that the eaves of his house were all hung, Manbao ran to the yard and found a tree branch. After making some gestures, he felt that the position was not bad, so he asked the tallest Daji to help hang it.

Of course Daji couldn't hang it up with his hands, so he found a high stool to hang it on.

When Bai Shan saw it, he also found a good spot around the tree. Bai Erlang looked at the only three lanterns he had, reached out and took them off the eaves, and asked Daji to hang them up for him.

Bai Dalang:......

He looked around, then looked down at the palace lantern in his hand. After all, he didn't want to hang it on the tree like this, so he waved and turned around and left.

He had better go back to his own courtyard. For some reason, when he saw the three of them, he could not help but feel sad.

Mr. Zhuang stood in the corridor with a smile and watched their mischief. After they finished hanging the lanterns, he stopped the excitement and said: "It's getting late. Although it means you don't need to go to school, you don't want to sleep too late."

The three of them agreed, bowed one after another, then went to wash up and go to bed.

Because they went to bed late, played crazy, and had so many experiences, the three children all got up late.

Man Bao didn't wake up from her dream until Zhou Lijun opened the door and walked in. She rubbed her eyes and glanced at the window. The window was closed, but the sunlight could not be turned off.

Zhou Lijun heard the movement through the screen and said, "Sister-in-law, you haven't gotten up yet?"

Manbao stretched his body and responded, asking: "You didn't come back last night, were you staying in the shop?"

"Yeah, there were a lot of people there last night," Zhou Lijun was very happy, yawning and chirping: "You don't know, the outer city is so lively and crowded. One day, before dark, he came to the store to book a table.

A family had a reunion dinner, and some sat on the second floor after dark to enjoy the lanterns while eating and drinking. Some even came in to eat when they got hungry in the middle of shopping. We had prepared a lot of ingredients in advance because we were afraid that many things would go up in price during the holiday.

Price, we have prepared some more vegetables that can be preserved, but who knew that they were all used up last night."

Man Bao put on his clothes and came out and asked, "That must be very tiring, right?"

"If I can make money, I don't mind being so tired every day."

"What time is it now?"

"It's almost noon."

Man Bao screamed, "I actually slept so late?"

Zhou Lijun asked with a smile, "Sister-in-law, don't you feel your stomach growling?"

Manbao rubbed his belly and calmed down. After listening carefully, he shook his head and said, "I'm not screaming."

She turned to ask, "Why are you back at this time? Isn't noon the busiest time?"

"Uncle Liu used up all the ingredients and sold a breakfast meal in the morning. Uncle Wu saw that we were very tired after working all night, and there were not many people on the street at this time, so he said there was no need to sell this meal at noon.

Let’s wait until dinner. He went out to buy ingredients at the moment.” Zhou Lijun said: “If I hadn’t wanted to sort out the accounts from yesterday and this morning, I would have come back a long time ago.”

Man Bao saw her yawning and her eyes were a little black, so he waved his hand and said: "Then you go to sleep quickly. I'm up and the room is quiet. You can sleep well."

Zhou Lijun nodded, but actually he didn't care that his sister-in-law was here because she was too sleepy and fell asleep as soon as she lay down on the bed.

Man Bao gently changed his clothes and went out to wash up. Bai Shan just got up.

After the two of them had washed up, Aunt Rong gave them a bowl of hot porridge and said, "Let's eat to satisfy our stomachs. We'll have lunch soon."

The two of them nodded and did not go to the table to eat. They simply sat on the steps holding bowls, gently scraping the meat porridge to eat while letting the Mid-Autumn Festival sunshine shine on their legs.

The two of them felt sleepy again.

After finishing the porridge slowly, they were too lazy to move, so they just sat on the steps in a daze, no one said anything.

Bai Erlang, who was in the room not far away, came out holding his stomach, smelled the fragrance wafting in the air, and looked at the empty bowls they were holding, then he pursed his lips and asked, "Why don't you scream when you have breakfast?"

I?"

Man Bao was thinking about what he was doing. He turned his gaze to Bai Erlang and said, "I thought you would like to sleep more."

Bai Shan nodded, "After all, we want to sleep again right now. We judge others by ourselves, and we think you do too."

Bai Erlang: "..."

Seeing him staring at them speechlessly, Man Bao said, "It's almost lunch. If you want to eat, why don't you go and wash up?"

Bai Shandao: "When we were washing just now, the husband took the book and went to the garden to read. He said that out of sight is out of mind. If you don't wash up, the husband will come back soon. Seeing you washing up now, he might be annoyed again.

Already."

Man Bao: "Mr. Be careful of punishing you for copying books."

Bai Erlang turned around and went back to the house to get the basin. Although he didn't want to accept their threats, he was really scared because he still had a book and a half unfinished.

Bai Erlang sighed heavily.

After he finished washing, Aunt Rong brought him a bowl of meat porridge without any bias.

Bai Er simply sat next to them with meat porridge in his hands, and while eating, he said: "I still need to copy the homework assigned by the school, Manbao, can you help me?"

"Sir, he will be punished if he finds out."

"If you don't tell me, I won't tell you, and if Bai Shan doesn't tell me, who knows?"

Man Bao and Bai Shan both turned to look at Daji, who was standing aside basking in the sun.

Daji met their eyes and turned around silently, facing away from them.
