Originally, Wu Sheng wanted to take Feng Lingyu home to check on his grandson, but Feng Lingyu said he had to wait for his friend.
Since they had already found the Purple Jade Crow, Wu Sheng was not in a hurry, so they waited at the agreed place.
Xiaotao and Huaiqing went shopping and haven't come back yet. They had agreed to meet on the street.
The streets are where the most people flow.
Feng Lingyu and Shen Huaiyu were tall and graceful, with an attractive demeanor that made people forget the mundane world and attracted the attention of many people.
"Why haven't you come back yet?" Shen Huaiyu raised his wrist and glanced at his watch with his dark eyes.
"He must have seen something interesting and forgot about it for a moment." Feng Lingyu said casually.
Gao Xiaotao and Shen Huaiqing have been staying at home for three months since the snowstorm. This is their first time going out to play, so they don’t find everything new.
Just as Feng Lingyu said, Gao Xiaotao and Shen Huaiqing were indeed having so much fun that they forgot about time.
Just now they saw the lion dance and were so excited that they stopped here and refused to move.
The atmosphere around was also very lively. Whenever the lion performed any difficult moves, everyone would cheer and applaud.
Gao Xiaotao and Shen Huaiqing were completely absorbed in it, watching intently.
For a lion dance like this, after it ends there are people holding large basins to collect tips.
Usually everyone would give some food and daily necessities. When it was Gao Xiaotao and Shen Huaiqing's turn, they felt in their pockets, grabbed a handful of candy, and put them all in.
Compared to the beans, pine nuts and other things given by others, this handful of candy is already considered a generous gift.
The people who received the tips were all smiling from ear to ear, and they asked the lion dancers who had already finished their performance to dance again around Gao Xiaotao and Shen Huaiqing.
The two were so happy that they continued playing for a while.
When the noise died down, they still felt a little reluctant to leave.
"It's so fun! It's a pity that Xiaoyu and the others are not here." Gao Xiaotao smacked her lips and sighed.
The joy on Shen Huaiqing's face has not faded: "Yes, Sister Xiaoyu and my brother..."
Halfway through his words, a look of horror appeared on his face: "Oh no! They must have been waiting for us for a long time!"
The smile on Gao Xiaotao's face froze instantly. The two looked at each other and said in unison, "Go back quickly!"
When the two of them ran back, they saw Feng Lingyu with his arms folded, looking at them calmly.
Although Shen Huaiyu was still smiling, he gave people an even more terrifying feeling...
"Well...we brought you some delicious food!" Gao Xiaotao said loudly with a guilty conscience.
She winked at Shen Huaiqing: "Huaiqing, take out the things quickly!"
"Oh, okay." Shen Huaiqing quietly glanced at his brother's expression and felt that he was finished.
"Sister Xiaoyu, these fried chestnuts and popcorn are delicious. Here, I kept them inside my clothes, and they're still warm."
Shen Huaiqing pursed his lips and looked at Feng Lingyu in a flattering manner.
As long as Sister Xiaoyu is not angry, my brother should not be angry either.
Feng Lingyu lowered her eyes, looked into Shen Huaiqing's worried eyes, and her heart softened.
After all, it took him half a year to raise him into a half-grown boy. Now seeing him begging for mercy, Feng Lingyu really couldn't say anything harsh.
She leaned down slightly, stretched out her hand, pinched Shen Huaiqing's elastic face, and pulled it out.
"If you run around again next time, don't think you can get away with it so easily."
Shen Huaiqing breathed a sigh of relief and smiled slyly.
Gao Xiaotao saw this and struck while the iron was hot and said, "Try it quickly, these are delicious!"
Feng Lingyu glanced at her sideways, "What were you doing? Why were you having so much fun?"
"I just watched for a while. There was a group of people dancing the lion dance. It was really beautiful. It's a pity you didn't see it!"
When talking about fun things, Gao Xiaotao became excited and spoke excitedly.
Shen Huaiqing also nodded with shining eyes, looking like he agreed.
"Okay, this won't happen again!" Feng Lingyu said helplessly. Who could have thought that they could be so fascinated by the lion dance.
Gao Xiaotao and Shen Huaiqing nodded quickly.
"Is there anything else you want to buy? If not, let's go."
Gao Xiaotao and Shen Huaiqing were puzzled: "Are we going back now?"
It's noon now, it's too early to go back.
The market hasn't even ended yet.
"No." Feng Lingyu said seriously: "Let me introduce you, this is Wu Sheng, you can call him Grandpa Wu. We are going to his house now."
Gao Xiaotao and Shen Huaiqing looked at the old man in front of them with squinting eyes and a plump appearance, and were completely confused.
How come there’s another Grandpa Wu after I haven’t seen him for a while?
But they were sensible and didn't ask any more questions.
After saying hello, several people followed Wu Sheng to where he lived.
Wu Sheng lived in a small village near Jing City in his early years. It was only after he suffered a disaster that he moved to Danyang City with his grandson.
He bought a small yard in a quiet alley and settled down here.
He has lived there for twenty years, and now his grandson Wu Sanle is already twenty years old.
"This is it, follow me."
Wu Sheng took out the key and opened the door, motioning Feng Lingyu and the others to follow.
Just as Feng Lingyu and the others were about to enter, a young woman suddenly jumped out from the side and asked curiously, "Uncle Wu, who are they?"
Wu Sheng frowned, turned around and saw that it was indeed the young wife next door, "It's my juniors. Isn't your family very busy? Go back quickly."
This woman is the daughter-in-law of the family next door.
After Wu Sheng moved here, the people next door saw that he was a grown man with a child, so they helped him a few times.
Later, perhaps because they saw that he and his grandson were getting old and young, they started to have other ideas.
After all, Wu Sanle looked to be in poor health, and might have died earlier than his grandfather Wu Sheng.
After they were gone, the house was still there, so the neighboring family's mentality changed. Every time they came to Wusheng's house, they pointed fingers and acted like the host.
Wu Sheng had been hanging around for so long after all, how could he not see through their thoughts? This made Wu Sheng very sick, and after thanking them by giving them gifts far beyond what they had taken care of, he stopped letting them come to his house.
Perhaps because of Wu Sheng's attitude, the family remained quiet for a few years.
But this year, after the family married a new daughter-in-law, things started to sprout again.
This daughter-in-law heard the news from somewhere, and she would monitor Wu Sheng's movements from time to time, which made him very annoyed.
When asked about it, she played dumb.
Now that Sanle was seriously ill, Wusheng had no mood to argue with her. Instead, she became even more aggressive and watched her more strictly.
