The Daily Life of a Rich Peasant's Boy in the Imperial Examination

Chapter 1587 Lantern Festival (5)



Chapter 1587 Lantern Festival (5)

The chubby girl ate two pig's feet, her mouth dripping with oil.

Reluctantly bidding farewell to Zhang San and Li Si, she said, "Uncle, your pig's feet are so delicious, just like the ones at the teahouse. Xiaoxiao loves them the most."

After listening to the translation, Li Si's eyes sparkled.

She smiled happily and said, "Thank you for the compliment, Miss Sun. Here, take this home and eat it."

After saying that, he stuffed a packaged pig's trotter into Sun Heitan's arms.

The chubby girl looked at Li Si with sparkling eyes.

He thanked her happily, saying, "Thank you so much, thank you so much."

Look at the little chubby girl's delighted expression; it proves that Zhang San and Li Si's braised pig's feet are truly delicious. To rival the best teahouse in Yuanlu County speaks volumes about their exceptional culinary skills.

Sun Shan quickly stopped him: "Li Si, don't do this."

He gave Sun Heitan a wink.

Sun Heitan understood immediately and stuffed the pig's trotter back in. The master said that not a single penny could be taken from the people.

Zhang San stammered nervously, "Yes, yes, I'll take it. I'll take it, I'll take it..."

Zhang Xiaomei hurriedly stuffed the pig's trotter into Xiaofeimei's hands: "I'm glad Miss Sun likes it."

The chubby girl cleverly grabbed the pig's foot and claimed it for herself.

Sun Shan: ......

Finally, unable to resist any longer, he had no choice but to leave with the pig's feet.

Gui Ge'er said cheerfully, "Brother Shan, the pig's feet from Zhang San and Li Si's families are indeed delicious, flavorful and chewy. No wonder Xiao Xiao likes them so much."

He turned around and looked at Hu Ming with a big laugh: "Hu Ming, thanks a lot for tonight, hehe, you've gone to so much trouble."

Hu Ming shook his head repeatedly: "Uncle Gui, you're welcome."

That's right, tonight's main character is Hu Ming paying the bill.

Who told him to blatantly display his shiny silver?

Sun Shan, holding Hu Ming's little hand, said, "Godfather also benefited from Hu Ming's presence tonight, getting to eat such delicious pig's feet."

Hu Ming's favorite character is Sun Shan.

His happiness made Hu Ming happy. He jumped up and down excitedly, saying, "Godfather, when Hu Ming grows up and makes money, I'll buy you pig's feet to eat every day."

Sun Shan was overjoyed: "Good son, then your godfather's livelihood for the rest of his life depends on you."

Hu Ming was even happier and nodded, "Godfather, I will take care of you in your old age. I will buy you pig's feet to eat as long as you like."

The chubby girl and the dark-skinned girl also clamored, "Brother, we want to eat pig's feet too!"

Hu Ming said embarrassedly, "Girls are going to get married, and if you have a good husband, he will buy you pig's feet."

Upon hearing this, the men of the Sun family burst into laughter.

Hu Ming laughed too, and Little Fatty and Little Black Girl laughed along, not knowing why.

As the group walked, the chubby girl suddenly called out, "Uncle Big-Headed Dog, Aunt Big-Headed Dog."

His shouts were nonsensical, but Sun Shan had already spotted the big-headed dog.

Oh my, you two are out on a date!

Big-Headed Dog and White Moon Girl held their wedding on the tenth day of the first lunar month, adding a new member to the Sun family's backyard.

At this very moment, Big Head Dog and White Moon Girl are at a jewelry stall.

Just as Little Fatty was about to continue shouting, Sun Shan quickly stopped her: "Good girl, Uncle Big Head Dog is busy, don't shout."

The chubby girl frowned and asked in confusion, "Dad, Uncle Big Head Dog isn't busy, he's just idling around."

In Little Fatty's mind, Big Head Dog was busy with kitchen matters, but at this moment he wasn't in the back kitchen and wasn't busy at all.

Sun Dingnan said with a grin, "Xiaoxiao, Uncle Big Head Dog is busy buying gifts for Auntie, let's not disturb him."

Sun Dali joked, "Oh my, I never thought that silly, big-headed dog could coax his wife. Look, he's buying her a hairpin."

At this moment, Big Head Dog was gesturing and pointing at Bai Yuegu's hair with one hairpin after another, laughing foolishly.

Bai Yuegu lowered her head, her face flushed as she looked at the big-headed dog.

Pink bubbles surrounded the two of them.

Oh dear, it's so painful to look at.

Sun Shan shook his head repeatedly and said, "Let's go, don't disturb Big Head Dog and his wife."

The chubby girl cried out unhappily, "Daddy, Xiaoxiao wants to find Uncle Big Head Dog and Aunt Big Head Dog."

Gui-ge asked, "Xiao-xiao, what do you want with them?"

The chubby girl pointed to the stall and said, "Xiaoxiao wants to buy a hair accessory too."

Little Fatty pointed to a golden hair accessory on the stall, and Sun Shan's lips twitched.

Suspecting the hair was made of gold because of the distance, the chubby girl insisted on having it.

Of course, the most important thing is to get Big Head Dog to pay the bill; the little girl is very shrewd.

Sun Shan gave Gui Ge'er a look and walked forward without saying a word.

Gui Ge'er cleverly followed, determined not to give Xiao Fei Mei the chance to be a third wheel.

Tiger Cry and Little Black Girl were much better behaved, staying close by and not fussing about finding Big Head Dog.

After walking a distance, Sun Shan said, "Xiaoxiao, you promised your father that you would only look at the lanterns and not buy or eat anything. Since you ate the pig's feet, you can't buy anything else, understand?"

The chubby girl really wanted to say she didn't know.

Seeing Sun Shan's cold face, Xiaoxiao, who knew she had made a mistake, said, "Father, Xiaoxiao understands."

Her chubby little hands clutched the purse tightly, as if afraid that Sun Shan would snatch it away because she had eaten pig's feet.

Sun Shan:......

Forget it, the little girl is only three or four years old, what does she know?

After watching the lantern festival, the pig's feet were exhausted. Looking at the sky, it was getting late.

The group headed back home.

As I walked through the street, I saw several young girls and servants crying loudly. Two bailiffs in official robes stood nearby.

The yamen runners also saw Sun Shan, because the group of people looked so distinctive.

They fit the description of "suspicious person" as marked by Lord Sun.

The constable A hurriedly stepped forward: "Greetings, Your Excellency."

Sun Shan nodded, pointed to the few crying children, and said, "Are these lost children?"

The constable nodded helplessly: "Yes, sir. We'll leave them here and wait for their parents to come and claim them."

There are plenty of unreliable parents in the world, and children are bound to get lost in any crowded or lively place.

Sun Shan specifically emphasized this point in his prevention and preparedness work.

"Lost and Found Stations" are set up at every busy street corner. If a child is found walking alone and crying, they can be placed here and left for their parents to claim.

Sun Shan looked at the several young girls and servants who were crying so hard they could hardly breathe with sympathy.

He solemnly instructed, "When relatives come to claim the child, you must verify their information carefully. Don't let anyone take advantage of the situation and abduct the child."

The two officers replied, "Yes, sir."

Sun Shan stepped forward, intending to comfort the young men and women.

To everyone's surprise, when the child saw Sun Shan, he took several steps back, burst into tears, and cried even harder than before.

Sun Shan: ......

What an ungrateful child!

They actually mistook him for a bad guy!

Sun Shan said helplessly, "Keep a close eye on it. If no one claims it, take it back to the yamen first, and then make arrangements."

The two officers saw nothing and knew nothing.

The robot bowed slightly, saying, "Yes, sir!"
