Chapter 425 Making Lanterns

The men in the family were extremely busy, and when the children woke up in the morning, they didn't see anyone.

The triplets are now responsible for playing, but they will not affect their older brothers and sisters in class.

When the day's classes were over, Lian Sigu disappeared without a trace.

"Brother, Dad and the others seem to be very busy." Juanjuan looked at them and saw that they were the only ones left at home.

"They have a lot to do lately, so we just stay home."

"Brother Mayang said he would teach us how to make lanterns today!" Si Jinchen knew how to divert Juanjuan's attention.

"Really?" Juanjuan immediately turned to look at Mayang.

"Really, let's go get the materials and then we can start." Ma Yang smiled and stood up to pick up the materials.

The room where the guns were kept now looked more like a playroom for several children.

The triplets insisted on coming over because they knew that their older siblings were not in class here.

Si Ning was helpless with his three children. Wherever Juanjuan was, the three of them were like little pendants, insisting on sticking to Juanjuan.

No one can help, including her biological mother.

Juanjuan likes her three younger brothers very much. They are willing to play with her and she is so happy.

The triplets watched them making lanterns with their mouths open and saliva flowing from them from time to time.

Bailing was there to help wipe their saliva. Although they all had a saliva bag hanging around their necks, she still wiped off their saliva carefully.

Mayang took out the cut bamboo strips and began to tie them together bit by bit, making it into the shape he wanted.

The models that the housekeeper and his team had recently made had been sent to the carpenter, who happened to have nothing else to do, so they started making lanterns with the children.

Everyone in the family was very skillful. After seeing Ma Yang make a rough outline, they knew what to do and began to use their imagination.

The triplets were so happy to see it that they wanted to reach out their little hands to grab it.

"You can't grab it, it will hurt your hands." Juanjuan pulled their little hands over and stuffed other things into their hands.

The triplets looked down at the things in their hands, turning them over and over in an awkward manner with their chubby little hands, having a lot of fun.

Sometimes he would put it in his little mouth to taste how salty it was.

Only after trying it did I realize that it was not tasty at all, and it was so bitter that it made my mouth water.

But it made Si Ning and Old Madam Si laugh.

"Let's see if you three little greedy cats will stuff everything into your mouths again in the future." Old Madam Si laughed so hard that tears came out.

Everyone in the room was amused by the three children, but they were a little curious about what Juanjuan was giving them to play with.

However, it is a bit difficult to take the things given by Juanjuan from the triplets. Unless they are asleep, they will make a fuss with you if you take them away.

Juanjuan is small and weak, so it is a bit difficult for him to make the lantern frame with bamboo strips.

"Miss, let me teach you how to make a Kongming lantern!" Ma Yang saw that she was a little bored.

"What is a Kongming lantern?" Juanjuan's eyes were full of curiosity.

"It's a lantern that can fly into the sky. People usually write their wishes on the paper inside the lantern. When the lantern is lit, it will fly into the sky carrying the wishes."

Ma Yang didn't tell her any anecdotes, but told her things that she could understand.

"Okay!" Juanjuan was more interested in the Kongming lantern.

Ma Yang found the thread and told her what to do.

It is actually simpler than bamboo lanterns. The only complicated thing is the fixed candlelight.

Juanjuan was learning seriously, and sometimes the thread almost tangled her up. Fortunately, Bailing was there to help her, preventing her from winding herself into a silkworm chrysalis.

When the first Kongming lantern was made, it looked a little crooked.

Everyone was a little worried that it might not be able to fly, but seeing how happy Juanjuan looked, it shouldn't be a big deal if it couldn't fly.

Juanjuan slowly began to find the trick, and the Kongming lanterns that were not very good-looking at first became more and more beautiful.

She also found various colored papers and carefully glued them to the thread.

Mayang helped her fix the bottom bamboo piece and also made a place to place the fuel.

The triplets were very busy, holding the things given by Juanjuan in one hand and handing things to Juanjuan and the others with the other hand.

Sometimes they forget that the food they are holding tastes bitter and take a bite, their little faces wrinkling and their bodies trembling.

It made everyone in the room laugh.

The triplets didn't know what everyone was laughing at, so when they saw them laughing, they started grinning too.

On the other side, Miao Jiu returned to the Miao family's old house and told old man Miao some things that might happen.

Old Man Miao immediately called Miao Qing and asked him to be in charge of the servants in the house and tell them to keep their mouths shut if they saw anything strange.

Everyone knew immediately that something big was going to happen at home.

But when they saw a big pit in the backyard and various animals appeared in the pit, they felt terrible.

When did mice, snakes, rabbits, pangolins, and moles all appear at the same time?

And it's in the middle of winter, when everything is covered with ice and snow.

Before they could finish being shocked, they heard Miao Qing asking them to move the large amount of food that had been prepared and place it in the yard.

All you see are these animals coming out, heading straight for the food.

They were all stunned by what they saw.

A snake looked at them with disdain for blocking the way, and gently tapped their calves with its tail, signaling them to move aside and not block the way.

The group of people were so frightened that they jumped back three feet high until they reached the edge of the yard.

Miao Jiu rolled his eyes at them and walked up to the animals: "Thank you for your hard work. Go back and rest early after you finish eating."

The animals wagged their tails happily and began to eat with relish.

The servants in the Miao family's old house felt like they were in a fantasy world. Their Ninth Master could actually communicate with animals.

When they saw these animals eating, their hearts almost jumped into their throats. The way snakes eat is really too shocking.

Old Man Miao watched calmly from the side: "Forget everything you saw today and keep your mouth shut. These animals are everywhere. If you let something slip, you won't know how you died."

After he finished speaking, he looked meaningfully at the giant python that was opening its mouth wide to swallow a sheep.

"Gudong." The servants of the Miao family swallowed their saliva together.

After the giant python swallowed the sheep, it felt the attention of the people around it and shook its head a little embarrassedly.

But the servants of the Miao family were so scared that they wanted to cry, but they didn't dare to move.

Miao Jiu raised his eyebrows and looked at Old Man Miao. This old man really knew how to intimidate people.

However, he didn't intend to hide it and let others think that he could communicate with animals. It would be better than being targeted by others.

After eating and drinking their fill, a group of small animals left the big pit as if they had never been there.

Old Man Miao looked at Miao Qing and said, "Go outside and invite some people back tomorrow. This house needs to be repaired."
