Chapter 181 Fireworks

  In the blink of an eye, it was the sixth day of the first year, and the business opened. However, during the Chinese New Year, the business was not very good, and the leisurely days suddenly reached the fifteenth.

  Because of the fireworks in the town, there are many people in the town all of a sudden.

   Zhou Ying and Gu Chengrui both went to their respective shops early in the morning and got busy.

   Zhou Ying and Chunniang also rolled out a lot of Yuanxiao together, and planned to buy fried Yuanxiao to join in the fun at night.

  In the afternoon and evening, as soon as various stalls came out, the streets that were not wide were completely congested.

   And their stalls selling Lantern Festival also went out. Zhou Ying also let people use lanterns to make three big characters for fried Lantern Festival, which will be particularly conspicuous on the street at night.

   "Selling candied haws, sweet and sour candied haws, one string of three cents and two strings of five cents."

   Zhou Ying took Sun Hongliang out and bought a bunch for everyone in the store.

Just as he was about to turn around, he realized that someone was touching his purse, and immediately grabbed the other's hand with a sinking hand. After realizing that something was wrong, he immediately looked down. It turned out to be a thin seven- or eight-year-old child in a beggar's uniform. , looking at himself with a look of panic.

   "Let's go, let's go to the side and talk about why you want to steal money." After Zhou Ying finished speaking, she grabbed the candied haws with one hand and dragged him to the restaurant with the other.

   When the child saw this, he pouted and cried: "Help, there is a trafficker, please help me."

   "It seems that you are very skilled in business. Someone has taught you specifically." Zhou Ying grasped it even tighter now.

  Sun Hongliang looked at the child at this time and said, "Child, you made a mistake in your calculations. There is no one in this area who doesn't know our shopkeeper Zhou. Even if you break your throat, no one will take care of you."

   The child who was shouting at the top of his throat was stunned for a moment, then glanced around, and sure enough, there was no one to help him. Thinking of this, he raised his hand and bit Zhou Ying's hand.

   Zhou Ying had to dodge because one hand was inconvenient, and the child immediately took the opportunity to disappear into the crowd.

   Zhou Ying had to go back to the store after seeing this, and asked Sun Hongliang to put the candied haws away with oiled paper, "Didn't we take all the little beggars in the town before, why are there little beggars here again?"

   "During the Chinese New Year, there was a small group of refugees in the town, could it be one of them?

   The other one could be someone who was hiding somewhere before, taking advantage of today to steal something. "Sun Hongliang said uncertainly.

   After hearing this, Zhou Ying looked at the street where people came and went: "Tonight is a mixed bag. It's most likely to happen. We must be careful and careful."

   "Understood, Master, I'll let all the children come here. They are more clever than adults." After Sun Hongliang finished speaking, he called the little beggar who was guarding the ventilation fan and assigned the task to him.

   The little beggar immediately took off his vest and hat and ran out.

   Zhou Ying went to the back after seeing this, and reminded everyone to be vigilant tonight.

  In the evening, business was booming, especially the fried Lantern Festival. Eight hundred and eighty-eight Lantern Festivals were sold out in less than half an hour.

  After dinner, most of the people went to the pier to watch the fireworks, but the street was much quieter.

   When everyone was about to be busy, Zhou Ying sent the candied haws to everyone, and each person ate a bunch.

After    finished eating, Gu Wen said with a smile: "Master, it's almost busy here, can we go to the river to watch the fireworks?

   I heard that there are activities such as offering sacrifices to gods and lion dances, and when it comes to Hai, there will be various firecrackers, which are beautiful. "
