The first thousand two hundred and forty-four chapters on the bear children's festival big pumpkin fundraising
As the scissors flipped over, pieces of innocent paper-cuttings of fat Nian dolls appeared in the hands of Dudu and Baobao. The residents of Kemising had never seen the art of paper-cutting before, and everyone was stunned for a moment.
"God, this must be an art, it's really amazing." An old man, full of excitement, stared at the paper-cut in Pandora's hand. "Grandpa, you want to sell it, Pandora will sell it to you, as long as you help
Pandora buys a mosquito net.”
Dudu said, and took out a sign, which said that the charity sale was to buy mosquito nets and donate them to children suffering from malaria in Africa. The sign that the baby put up said that it was the development and history of paper-cutting art.
The residents who came to watch the excitement were all attracted by the two signs. The African children's encounter, the history of paper-cutting for more than 1,500 years, and the art of paper-cutting all attracted attention.
Especially the two children, under the scissors, beautiful paper-cuts were born. In particular, the art of paper-cutting has become a world intangible cultural heritage, and more people are paying attention to the paper-cutting in the hands of Dudu and Baobao.
"How much?"
a young couple asked.
"Paper cutting and small pumpkin, three dollars." Dudu stretched out three little fingers and gestured. The little guy originally wanted to sell it for two dollars, but seeing so many people, Xiaoxiao changed his mind.
"Here are five dollars." The woman took out five dollars and handed them to Dudu.
"Pandora, give two to Auntie." Dudu picked up the little pumpkin with a paper cut on its face.
The two people hurriedly took it, looked at it carefully, and kept praising it. "This is amazing art." "Yes, it's great." Well, the two of them were obviously not interested in African children's cards and paper-cutting.
of big.
The other elderly people paid more attention to the African children. "Here are twenty dollars. Please donate them to you." The old man took out twenty dollars and gave the people around him a meal.
Twenty dollars is not a small amount, at least in the small town of Kemising. It is a lot of money. "Thank you, is this a little pumpkin?" "No." The old man smiled.
Dudu looked at the old grandpa walking away. "Sister, baby, grandpa doesn't even want pumpkins."
"Um."
"I'll give all the paper cuttings to grandpa."
"But grandpa is gone."
"Send it tomorrow."
The baby nodded his head. "Make it into a notebook." "Yeah."
As they talked, the two little people took out the paper cuttings that Grandma and Grandma Xu had made yesterday and pasted them on the pumpkins. They spent the whole morning. Not to mention, they bought a lot of them, raising money and selling pumpkins and paper cuttings.
Dudu and Baobao, two little people, actually put together six mosquito nets. The two little people were so happy that they waited to see Maria, Michelle, and Mimizi. The two little guys took out a bunch of mosquito nets.
Holding money.
"Wow, that's a lot of money."
"Hmm. Bao Bao and Sister Dudu have already counted, and they can buy six mosquito nets." Bao Bao said with a little pride.
"Six caps. That's great. Teacher, please donate one." Cynthia said with a smile and took out ten dollars.
"Thank you, Teacher Cynthia, this is for you." Dudu took out a piece of dyed New Year picture cutting paper and handed it to Cynthia.
Cynthia was a little confused. "Is this a cartoon?" A fat doll riding an Asian carp.
"No. This is paper cutting, made by Pandora." Dudu said proudly.
"Cut it?" Cynthia became more and more confused. The baby on the side saw it and took out small scissors and a piece of craft paper. He quickly folded it a few times and cut with the scissors. After a while, a double happiness picture appeared in front of Cynthia's eyes.
Mimizi, Michelle, Maria, and a group of little children got off the kindergarten school bus and were all dumbfounded. "Wow, baby, that's amazing."
"Baby, what is this?"
A group of white and black children surrounded Dudu, the baby was so proud. "Paper cutting."
"Dudu has cards."
Dudu even took out a promotional sign, which Li Han helped write. "More than 1,500 years ago, God, the United States was only founded over 200 years ago." A kindergarten teacher was surprised when he saw it.
"Um."
Dudu was very proud. "Teacher Louisa, there are more, and there are more." Dudu folded the cards and opened them. Below there was an introduction to various honors such as the paper-cutting being awarded the World Intangible Cultural Heritage.
"Teacher Cynthia, I think today we can learn about the magical art from ancient China." Louisa said. "Pandora, are you willing to teach everyone?"
"willing."
Dudu nodded his little head vigorously.
"Great, Pandora, aren't you doing a fundraiser? Let's help you cut more paper-cuts, maybe we can sell them at the market?" Luisa said with a smile.
"We help."
A group of little people were excited and howling, thinking that they could be helped and donated more mosquito nets to African children, and they were very excited.
Cynthia heard that this idea was a good one, but Dudu and Baobao were wondering if they could teach them well. While waiting for the children to enter the classroom, Cynthia called Li Han.
"This thing, Cynthia, paper-cutting is not easy. Pandora and Baobao learn the simplest ones. My mother and Aunt Xu cut the New Year picture dolls. The two little guys know the simplest and easiest to learn. Besides, when it comes to fundraising, in the end
If it's your intention, it's better than anything else." Li Han said with a smile.
"You're right, Han. I didn't expect auntie to be like this. She's really beautiful."
Cynthia held the New Year painting doll, and Li Han smiled and told the story of the New Year painting doll, which inevitably involved Chinese mythology and inspired Cynthia's interest novels. "Han, this story is great. If you have time, maybe you can give a lesson to the kindergarten.
It’s really interesting to talk about Chinese mythology and the children will definitely like it,” Cynthia said.
"I will definitely go when I have time." Li Han agreed with a smile. This is a good thing. The kindergarten often invites parents to tell the children stories, travel information, parents of children who have gone abroad or moved to other cities.
Go to classes and give lectures to children.
Li Han went there once, and this time when he talked about fairy tales and paper-cutting, Cynthia's mind moved again. "Thank you, it's late, Han, I have to go to class."
"Okay, Pandora and baby, we just learned, please pay more attention and use the scissors. Be careful." Li Han said.
"Han, you don't have to worry about this."
Cynthia smiled and said, these are her normal tasks and there is no need to remind them.
Li Han hung up the phone and was about to go back to find Master Gu. The fax machine rang. "Hey, it's so fast."
A fax came from the headquarters of the "As long as the Mosquito Net Association" in New York received a donation of 1,000 mosquito nets from Li Han, and said that the donation certificate would be sent soon.
Li Han took it over and folded it randomly into his notebook. "I don't know what will happen if Dudu and Baobao's two mosquito nets are sent. Will there be a reply?"
"Little Han, you didn't go to the garden. Just in time, Wei Li came to find you." Zhang Xiuying walked in and saw her son standing in the living room.
"Weili, shouldn't this guy go to work?" Li Han was a little confused, and Zhang Xiuying put down the basket. "It seems that Weili has something to do with you, and he is quite anxious."
"Yeah, I'll go over and have a look, by the way. Mom, why didn't Wei Li come to the small building?" Li Han said. Stopping, this guy Wei Li usually likes to come to the living room for a drink.
"This kid, I didn't do much today. He said he would go to the pumpkin garden to wait for you." Zhang Xiuying said. "I thought you were in the garden, so I said, I'll tell you when I come back, so I'll go there."
"That's it, Mom. Let me go and see if this guy is causing trouble?" Li Han smiled, walked out of the door, and walked along the path to the pumpkin patch. Weili, this guy, was picking at the pumpkin patch.
.
"What are you doing?"
Li Hanxiao asked.
"Han, you are here, I have something urgent to ask you." Weili said.
"What's wrong?" Li Han looked confused. "Is it any wonder that a vampire monster appears again?"
"It's not that, Han, you heard that the prize money for the Pumpkin Festival in Button Town has doubled this year, and the first place prize is five thousand dollars." Willy said.
"Five thousand dollars?"
Li Han asked. "Although it's a lot, it doesn't have much to do with you now, right?" "Why doesn't it matter, Han, you don't know, this time Ronald and Marbury got a ticket to compete for the town of Kemising"
We have agreed with the town of Hamilton that the first place in the three-town pumpkin competition will receive a prize of US$1,000, while the second and third place will receive US$800 and US$500 respectively and a ticket to participate.”
"Usually, the bonus is so much in US dollars at any time, which is not small. What about this time?" Li Han said.
"Hey, this time the town of Kemising made big claims. If it doesn't get a place, all the prize money will be borne by the town of Kemising." Weili said. "Mao Ni knows that the town has no money at all."
"Uncle Ronald decided this matter?" Li Han was a little surprised.
"This is too much of a fuss, Hamilton. You said you don't want the game to be held in Comixing Town. You said that Comixing Town doesn't have giant pumpkins. Fortunately, you sent a giant pumpkin to shut up the people of Hamilton Town. It's just that
The bet is settled, I looked at Carl and showed a relaxed smile after seeing your giant pumpkin, and there is a good chance that he has something bigger than that, or even more than one." Weili said.
"Kady and Billy, what do you say?"
"Kaidi said, you may have one here, just in time, isn't it a Pandora fundraiser? Han, selling small pumpkins like this all the time, I think it's better to get a few bigger ones. If you win, not to mention the bonus, maybe once it's publicized,
We raised a lot of donations for mosquito nets," Willie said.
"That's right, big pumpkin. I still have a few in the barn. Let's go and take a look." Li Han said.
"good.
With that said, Wei Li and Li Han came to the barn, where there were many pumpkins piled up.
On the other side, on Hamilton's side, Carl and others came to the barn and piled some pumpkins inside. "Carl, if we were to do this, we would be in big trouble."
"No one would know that these pumpkins were transported but not seen," Carl said. There were five or six giant pumpkins stacked in the barn, each weighing over a thousand kilograms, and the largest two were even close to two thousand kilograms.
Such a big guy, not to mention Hamilton and Komi, is enough for the small town of Bouton and even to participate in the American Pumpkin Festival. "If this pumpkin competition is put in Komi, I would like Komi to see it."
"That's right, Ke Mi Xing wants a ticket. Don't look at how big his town is. The giant pumpkin farm is less than one-tenth of the town of Hamilton, but he wants a ticket to participate." Nadel snorted.
"Karl, I support you." Nadel is Karl's friend and parent. Although he is not a farmer, he has a good relationship with the farmer. He is the director of the Monsanto Agricultural Company's Bouton branch and usually lives in the small town of Hamilton.
"This time, Comixing must be taught a lesson, especially Ronald. Monsanto's promotion has been hindered. Ronald and Marbury have the biggest resistance and voices."
"There is also Han from Hank Farm," Nadel said. "The matter of grass seeds and cattle seeds was once brought to the head office." Nadel's parents were very worried about this time.
These giant pumpkins were found by Nadel through Monsanto Company. They are all huge. "This time I must give that guy a try. Don't think that growing a thousand-pound giant pumpkin will definitely defeat us."
"That's right."
"Weili, what do you think of these?" Li Han smiled and pointed at the big pumpkin in the barn.
Weili looked at this and touched this. "Hahaha, with so many big guys, those Hamilton guys should just go home and make pumpkin pie."
"Haha, but this year, there is not only a pumpkin competition, but also a pumpkin boat competition. How are you preparing for it?" Li Han asked.
"Pumpkin boat race, Han, it's not that we don't want to participate, but the experience is much worse than Hamilton's, and there are pumpkins."
"Pumpkins, the problem is uncertain. I still have a batch of medium-sized pumpkins here, which are enough to make pumpkin boats." Li Han thought for a while and said.
"Kady, Bill, and Tom, their skills are quite good, but it's quite difficult to win." Weili said with some helplessness.
“Where’s the kids’ pumpkin boat race?”
Li Han sighed helplessly, after all, Hamilton's advantage was too obvious in this regard.
"Pandora and Baobao won the Chris Manor Pumpkin Boat Competition last year. Hamilton has always been unconvinced. I heard that there are several children in the children's group this year. They have been training for a month or two since August." Weili was a little worried.
"Han, are Pandora and the baby okay?"
Li Han nodded. "Pandora and the baby, it's not a big problem." "That's good. The children's group can get a ranking, at least it's not too embarrassing. Besides, with so many giant pumpkins, we will definitely win the pumpkin competition.
.”
"Haha, we can't say for sure yet. Let's choose three bigger ones." Li Han said.
"Okay, I'll come over tomorrow afternoon and take you to town." Weili said. "Seeing the big guy here makes me feel relieved. I'll leave first."
"Slow down on the road."
Li Han sent Wei Li out of the farm and back to the small building. Lingna and Jennifer also came back. "Han, what's the matter with Wei Li?" "I was thinking about the pumpkin contest, isn't Pandora going to do a fundraiser?
, I happened to be participating in the pumpkin competition. There will be a lot of people there, so a few little guys will raise money for mosquito nets, which will definitely have good results."
"Indeed, it would be even better if we could win the first place in the small town competition, participate in the small town of Bouton, or even participate in the Giant American Pumpkin Competition in California. It would attract more people's attention and it would be much easier to raise donations." Lingna said with a smile.
.
"This is a good idea, but I don't know if I can win." Li Han said. "I'll talk to Dudu and Baobao about this when they come back." (To be continued)
