Chapter 33: Different Fireworks



Before anyone else could react, the head of the village rushed in.

When he saw the food piled up in the corner, he immediately knelt on the ground, shouting: "Thank you, old immortal, thank you, old immortal."

The others were confused by what the old village head said.

However, looking at the food placed so obviously, they could not convince themselves that they had missed it when they were looking for food yesterday.

The old headman told them what had happened last night.

Everyone listened to Lao Li telling what happened yesterday as if he was telling a story. They felt elated and rubbed their eyes to make sure that all this was not a dream.

After Lao Lizheng finished speaking, he added with a mysterious look on his face: "The old immortal must have helped us because he thought we were united, and he also said that the Imperial City is not a good place to go, so we have to discuss changing the route."

Shen Yu'an didn't know all this because she put away the food and water and left the city with her family.

It is quite far away from the county town now.

There was only one main road, and although the Shen family was no longer with the people of Shen Village, they could only follow the road they had just taken.

Without the delay of the large group, they walked quickly and after walking for more than an hour they saw the group from Shenjia Village in front of them from afar.

It was already noon, and the Shen family saw from afar that the team in front seemed to have stopped to rest.

After what had just happened, they didn't want to go forward and get together again, so they just stopped and found a place to rest under the shade of a tree.

Although it is called shade, in fact it is just the shadows cast by the trunks and branches.

It hasn't rained for so long that even the trees have lost some vitality and are completely bare.

After walking for several hours, everyone was tired and hot. Shen Yu'an felt that her body was sticky with sweat, and she pulled at her clothes uncomfortably.

Looking at the people sweating profusely, Shen Yu'an asked Dalang and the others to take out the oilcloth from the car, tie the corners with ropes and tie them to several nearby big trees.

Although it cannot completely block the sun from shining on people, it is much more comfortable than sitting in the sun.

Shen Yu'an looked at the large shadow and called for others to go in.

There were several straw mats on the ground, and she was the first to occupy a spot and lie down.

"Ah, comfortable~"

Shen Yu'an lay on the straw mat, stretched out his body in a big letter shape, and stretched comfortably.

Song laughed and scolded, "Look at you, you don't look like a girl at all."

The four people from the Shen family and the Zhang family were already used to it.

The Shen family felt that ever since Shen Yu'an fell into the water and had a falling out with Lin Chunyan, she seemed to have opened some strange Ren and Du meridians and became more cheerful than before.

This was the character of Shen Yu'an that the Zhang family saw when they lived here. At first, they sighed that the Shen family was really doting on girls, but now they have a calm face.

But old man Shen Xingwang secretly glanced at it in surprise.

His legs and feet are not very strong, so he seldom goes out.

Most of the information I get from the outside world comes from family members chatting or mumbling during meals.

But all I could hear was how well-behaved Shen Yu'an was and how smart she looked.

This seemed different from what he knew.

However, seeing that no one showed any surprise, I suppressed my confusion.

It must be because he hasn't been out much in recent years and he doesn't know what a girl looks like.

Yes, that's it!

Old man Shen Xingwang brainwashed himself and soon convinced himself.

Shen Yu'an was lying on the ground and heard her grandmother's complaints. She raised one hand and shook it.

The little head also shook in coordination.

"No, no, it would be so boring if everyone was the same."

"It is precisely because everyone is a different firework that we have such a colorful life and encounters, don't you think?"

Everyone laughed and answered in unison: "An An is right."

However, Liu Lang was attracted by something else in her words.

He asked curiously, "Sister, what are fireworks like? Have you ever seen fireworks?"

"Of course..." Shen Yu'an realized that he almost said the wrong thing, and quickly made amends: "I haven't seen it, but my sister has seen firecrackers."

I have seen quite a few in my previous life, but the 'she' here probably has never seen fireworks.

During the Chinese New Year, people usually just buy some firecrackers. Fireworks are luxury items that only nobles and wealthy businessmen can play with, and ordinary people cannot afford them.

Sanlang, Silang and Wulang also came over to listen, and couldn't help feeling a little regretful when they heard her say that she had never seen it either.

"Sister, I haven't seen them either. I heard that fireworks are much prettier than firecrackers, and they can even fly into the sky."

"I heard it's colorful. I don't know if I'll have the chance to see it. Alas~" Sanlang sighed heavily, feeling a little regretful.

Shen Yu'an comforted them, "Don't worry, you will definitely see it."

As they were talking, the Song family members had prepared lunch.

Today's lunch is noodles, but each bowl of noodles has a poached egg and three large slices of meat that look delicious.

Since they were all family, Song didn't hide the fact that she cooked.

Everyone smelled the fragrance and looked in the same direction at the same time.

It is such a blessing to be able to eat such a bowl of noodles while fleeing from famine.

Everyone held a bowl of noodles and ate happily, and suddenly felt how happy it was not to follow the big group.

Otherwise, it would be really frustrating to have food but not be able to eat it.

Several people ate and praised. Shen Yu'an's brother Shen Jiawulang ate his noodles and said vaguely, ""

"Slurp...Mom, your cooking is getting better and better... Slurp...You're almost as good as Third Aunt's."

There was laughter and joy here, and the people from Shenjia Village in front also stopped to prepare for dinner.

However, they had limited food, and few of them made a fire to cook. Most of them just took out the dry biscuits prepared in advance, took a few bites, and then took a few small sips to moisten their mouths before daring to eat any more.

After eating her half piece of cake, Shen Daya, the daughter of Shen Xingwang's eldest son, leaned against the tree trunk and planned to take a nap.

But when he turned around, he saw the Shen family and their group a few hundred meters away.

She suddenly perked up, patted her mother's arm and said, "Mom, look, is that my second grandfather's family in the back?"

Her mother looked in the direction she pointed and saw a group of people not far away.

But it looks like there's something covering it?

Humph, you really know how to enjoy yourself.

She rolled her eyes and said, "You said you wouldn't follow the team, but you're following them anyway."

"Second grandfather and his family must be regretting this. What my cousin did was too extreme and the village head will definitely not let them come back easily." Shen Daya said proudly.

As Shen Daya was speaking, she heard her second aunt reply, "It's better not to come back. If you come back, you'll be a burden just eating for nothing."

She was talking about her father-in-law Shen Xingwang.

Then he continued, "We came late this morning. Do you know why that girl got kicked out of the team because of the noise?"

Shen Daya and her daughter became interested and asked quickly, "Why?"
