Chapter 2 Forcing the Lantern

Lin Liangchen was excited for a while, and hurriedly explained to Lin Tianlei. After that, he waited expectantly for Lin Tianlei to take action, and if he lied, he would lie. As for what Lin Liangchen said, little Lin Tianlei remembered it clearly. While watching, he finally waved his chubby little hand, and then started writing.

Xu is that Lin Liangchen's paintings are somewhat different, and Lin Tianlei's paintings are not very good, but in Lin Liangchen's opinion, there is still a strange cuteness. He kissed Lin Tianlei on the cheek, let him practice hard, and returned to the house with a pile of paper. .

In the next few days, the family was busy, Xu Han and the fifth uncle made lanterns, and Lin Liangchen's mother and son did the work of pasting paper and adding things. quite fast.

Of course, this lantern, what Lin Liangchen asked for was not a lot, but to be delicate and cute in appearance, so that someone would buy it and write lantern riddles for people to guess. The level of work is too high for Lin Liangchen to do. , In addition, she is a woman and a group of men guessing riddles, no matter how you look at it, it is a bit inappropriate. It was good that she was not married before, but now she is married to Xu Han. These things that should be avoided, Lin Liangchen thinks that it is better to avoid it. .

He said he didn't want to do a lot, but after a few days, the family still made a hundred or so. This time, Lin Liangchen didn't expect to make much money selling lanterns, but planned to enjoy the family's busy process, such a lively life. Lantern Festival is the first time.

On the fifteenth day, Lin Liangchen's family had an early dinner, put on a jacket to protect against the cold, and brought the torches they needed when they came back. Now, on the way, the old fifth uncle had a happy look on his face, and his face was flushed with red light.

Lin Liangchen glanced at it and guessed that the fifth uncle had not been out for a long time during the Lantern Festival. Therefore, he was a little excited, pursed his lips, and led his son to silently follow Xu Han's footsteps.

When I arrived in the town, I hadn't even gone to the busiest street. The surrounding area was already full of people. Seeing how lively the town was, Lin Liangchen couldn't help frowning and stopped Xu Han, who was walking in front. Xu Han was holding a lantern. After turning around, Lin Liangchen led Lin Tianlei forward. Some worriedly said: "With so many people today, I don't know if they can find a vacant seat."

Looking around, the surrounding streets are full of all kinds of people selling food, and their shouts were mixed with what Lin Liangchen said for a while. So much so that Xu Han almost didn't hear what Lin Liangchen said, and noticed the worried look on her face.

After looking around, he said, "There will always be a place. Don't worry about it."

Lin Liangchen nodded. He led his son and walked forward silently. It was still dark, there were stalls on both sides of the street and there were still people, which was something Lin Liangchen never thought of, but since he was here, he naturally had to listen to what Xu Han said. Find an empty spot to put these lanterns they've been making for days.

There are many people, the location is definitely not as easy to find as last year,

And as they passed by, Lin Liangchen also met Aunt Sun and Fang Bi'er and their mother and daughter. Seeing Lin Liangchen's mother and son, and seeing Xu Han not far away, Fang Bi'er looked a little unsightly. She lowered her head for a while, and then raised her head again while Aunt Sun and Lin Liangchen were talking. Good day to say hello.

"Sister Liangchen, what a coincidence."

Lin Liangchen smiled and said, "Yes, it's quite a coincidence."

Aunt Sun also saw Xu Han and the fifth uncle at this moment, and smiled and said to Lin Liangchen, "Liangchen, are your family here to sell lanterns?"

"Yeah? I had nothing to do at home, so I thought about doing it, auntie?" Lin Liangchen ignored Fang Bier's bad face and talked directly to his auntie.

When Aunt Sun was asked by Lin Liangchen, she was a little embarrassed and blushed: "Liangchen, I told you not to be angry, I made the dumplings you taught me to make last year to sell..."

Although it was her own idea to make this dumpling and bury it, but now that Lin Liangchen saw it, Aunt Sun naturally told the truth.

Lin Liangchen glanced at the stall in front of Aunt Sun, and laughed, "It's okay, since I taught Auntie, it's Auntie's, so what's your apology?"

"You know me, if I don't apologize, I'll feel bad about it. Besides, I didn't discuss this with you before." Aunt Sun said, embarrassed.

Aunt Sun's appearance made Lin Liangchen feel amused, "It's not necessary to say that, why are you being polite to me, Auntie, I won't tell you first, my family is still waiting, our mothers will go first."

"Come on, wait for a while, I'll go back to your house to thank you."

"It's all said and done, my aunt will come over when the time comes." Let Lin Tianlei and the mother and daughter say goodbye, then lead his son and turn around and leave.

As soon as Lin Liangchen left, Fang Bi'er's displeasure was fully revealed, and she said to Aunt Sun in a bad tone: "Mother, why are you talking to Sister Liangchen in such a low voice, as if our family were her slaves. of."

Aunt Sun glared, "What do you know, sister Liangchen, you are polite, we can't put your nose on the face, and besides, without you sister Liangchen, your elder brother can't marry a wife now."

Fang Bier curled her lips, "That said, but when Sister Liangchen was in trouble, you helped a lot. She should repay our family."

Fang Bi'er heard from Fang Dayong. When Lin Liangchen went through several calamities, her mother was always by her side. Now that Lin Liangchen is doing well, what's the matter with giving their family something in return? She herself will not be short of fast meat.

When Aunt Sun heard Fang Bi'er's words, it was a bit sharp and harsh. She looked at Fang Bi'er and said, "Bi'er, do you still have a prejudice against your sister Liangchen?"

Fang Bi'er hummed and said nothing. Aunt Sun sighed and stopped talking. If she said too much, it would cause Fang Bi'er's rebellious heart.

Xu Han, who was walking in front, saw that Lin Liangchen's mother and son were not following, and turned to call for someone. The old fifth uncle said, "Liangchen is talking to Mrs. Fang Yongfu in the back. Let's go find a place first."

Xu Han snorted, and the old fifth uncle left first, while Lin Liangchen, who was chasing after him, walked for a long time without seeing Xu Han and the old fifth uncle. He couldn't help being a little discouraged, looked at his son and said: "What should I do, Xiaolei, we and your father are separated."

Lin Tianlei was startled, and then comforted Lin Liangchen, "Mother, let's look for it slowly, Dad definitely didn't go far."

It took more than half an hour to meet this time. Today is the Lantern Festival, and there are many people. When looking for someone, the mother and son were squeezed around. When they walked to the most lively street, it was getting dark. Fortunately, Xu Hanzhe saw that Lin Liangchen's mother and son did not show up for a long time, so he turned back to find someone.

Seeing Lin Liangchen's mother and son being squeezed around in the crowd, they squeezed in vigorously. When they reached Lin Liangchen's mother and son, they directly protected Lin Liangchen in their arms. The sudden black shadow scared Lin Liangchen. With a big jump, when he was thinking about how to break free, his sensitive nose smelled Xu Han's smell, and he freed up a hand to pinch Xu Han's waist.

Xu Han did not expect that Lin Liangchen would turn his hand and pinch him, and whispered, "Liangchen, be gentle, it hurts."

Lin Liangchen's heart was alarming, and he slammed it hard before letting go. Xu Han gasped, and guarded the mother and son to a place where there were few people, and then looked at her resentfully, "Liangchen, why are you pinching me?"

Lin Liangchen glared, "You also said that whoever asked you to show up didn't say a word, and almost scared me to death. I thought I was kidnapped."

Indeed, Xu Han's aura was too strong, and the man was tall. If he appeared suddenly, he would definitely scare people. What's more, Lin Liangchen was squeezed around at that time, and he didn't have any sense of precaution. Nothing happens.

Xu Han scratched his head and said embarrassedly, "I didn't think about it that much at the time."

Lin Liangchen was helpless, "Forget it, I'm fine now, let's go to the fifth uncle earlier."

Knowing that Xu Han was thinking of her, Lin Liangchen didn't go to the bottom of it, looked at the crowd watching the lively crowd, and secretly said: Take advantage of the crowd, sell those hundred or so lanterns as soon as possible, if you can't sell them, it will be troublesome.

Today last year, Lin Liangchen's mother and son, grandson and Zhao Jiabao brothers sold rice dumplings and lanterns here. This year, they were still mother and son, but the people around them were replaced by others. Thinking of the helplessness and confusion at that time, Lin Liangchen saw Looking at the lantern with a little light, I couldn't help being ecstatic.

"Liangchen, I'm too busy, come and help collect the money..."

The old fifth uncle didn't notice Lin Liangchen, who was in a trance. He was too busy, so he directly called Lin Liangchen to collect the money. Lin Liangchen was fast, and he rescued the busy old fifth uncle after a while. Lan Lantern's Xu Han saw the terrified Fifth Uncle and couldn't help laughing, then glanced at Lin Liangchen, deepening the smile on the corner of his mouth.

The lanterns on Lin Liangchen's side are both small and cute, and they are very popular with little children and unmarried girls. Even if the price is expensive, it looks rare. There are hundreds of lanterns, and they are sold in less than half an hour. I bought thirty or forty, thirty or forty lanterns, one thirty cents, and nearly one or two silver coins. It was the first time that the old fifth uncle had loaded so many copper plates.

Lin Liangchen and Xu Han understood, looked at each other and smiled, and said nothing. It took more than an hour, and almost a hundred lanterns were sold. After leaving the last two, Lin Liangchen and Xu Han were ready to close the stall. , At this moment, a young man suddenly appeared in front of the booth.

Seeing that Lin Liangchen and his wife were about to close the stall, they said, "Boss, I want a lantern."

Busy Xu Han turned around and said, "Sorry, this brother, the lanterns are sold out."

The young man frowned, looked at Lin Tianlei who was not far away, pointed at Lin Tianlei who was holding two lanterns and said, "Boss, isn't that still there?"

Xu Han stopped what he was doing, "I'm sorry, that's what my son and daughter-in-law asked for, so I'm sorry, Xiongtai wants a lantern, go buy it elsewhere."

The young man frowned deeper, "Does the boss mean that you don't plan to sell it to me?" (To be continued..)

ps: Well, it may not be very calm after that.
