Chapter 386: Trouble on the Lantern Festival
At this time, Li Sanniang put on new clothes, tied her hair with a new rope, held a bunch of candy canes in her hands, and played with dewdrops bulging from her mouth. Watching a performance in a theater troupe.
Today, the streets are really full of people. It is no exaggeration to say that they are packed with people.
It was not too early for everyone in the Li family to go out. From Changshoufang to West Market, it usually takes at most half an hour. Today, it took more than an hour to arrive at the gate of West Market. .
Before entering, everyone in the Li family dispersed in groups.
Brother Li did not go to hear the book with Father Li this time. Instead, Dr. Liang took the Shaoyang boy and Father Li together.
Brother Li was worried that Mother Li and the others were mostly girls with children, and Brother Li couldn't take care of them by himself, so he wanted to be together.
Brother Li and Brother Li walked around the West Market with Mother Li and the other girls, but the four little ones let go and played on their own.
After making an appointment, everyone gathered outside the mutton soup restaurant. After having lunch together, they went to find Shen Qiuniang, took the tickets they had left with her in advance, entered the venue, and watched a full-scale performance. Exotic play comes.
This time, what Li Sanniang found most attractive was the flying dance of the Hu girl from the Western Regions!
It was still very cold outside, and inside she was only wearing cool summer gauze-like clothes, revealing her slender waist, with bell bracelets on her wrists and ankles, and the lower half of her face was covered with gauze. Standing on the narrow wooden swing with both feet, swinging from the swings of different heights to the beat of the drums and back again.
Every time two people exchange hands, the people sitting in the stands hold their breath, fearing that if one of them fails to connect, the beautiful Hu Nu will fall from the high altitude, causing a commotion. It's a tragedy in the world.
There are those who are timid, covering their eyes and not daring to look.
The main focus is stimulation and eye-catching.
Li Sanniang felt that since they could eat this bowl of rice, they would not make any mistakes. Otherwise, this mistake would really cost them their lives.
Lu Zhu'er was not afraid at all. She opened her big eyes and looked at the Hu Nu with clothes flying above her without blinking, looking at it with gusto.
After watching the show, it was already approaching dusk, and some shops had already hung up lanterns on the street.
Although the sky has not turned completely dark, it has already become dim. Each shop has to hang at least six lanterns. Even the store with a big shop almost fills the corridor. There must be ten lanterns. Looks like multiple lamps.
Not to mention, there is a tall lampstand every thirty feet (about 100m), and eighteen lanterns with paintings on the outside have been lit by police patrolmen. .
With the layers upon layers, the street is not as bright as day, but it is not much different.
Anyway, Luzhu'er looked at it with great interest, and Li Sanniang specially picked her up and asked her to look at the patterns painted on the lanterns of the lanterns with different shapes, including flowers, birds, fish, insects, and landscape figures. Everything you need.
Luzhu'er pointed to a lantern shaped like a koi carp: "Auntie, this fish is beautiful!"
Li Sanniang looked at the lantern, which was mainly gold and supplemented by red, with a lantern on the back of the koi's tail. The lantern with a small lotus on it responded to Luzhu'er: "Zhu'er, this lantern is really beautiful. Look, there is a lotus behind the fish's tail."
At this time, in Jun came to the restaurant again and finished the meal. When he arrived at Yun Shao Yuan, which specializes in music and dance performances, Princess Taiping and others who came to see the neon dance were already sitting in the private room booked by Wang Shiniang in advance and waiting.
"Princess, try this little bit. I heard it came from the Western Regions. It is very sweet and delicious."
Princess Taiping looked at this little dot and said with a smile: "Isn't this the butter puffed snail?" It's different."
After hearing this, Princess Taiping took a small silver spoon and took a mouthful. When the soft cream melted in her mouth, she could feel the taste of plum sauce. "Ah, there's plum sauce in it!"
Wang Shiba Niang nodded in agreement and said proudly: "Isn't it different from the one in the palace? Is it delicious?"
"Well, it is indeed different, but it has a different taste."
After everyone chatted for a while, they heard the sound of gongs from the table downstairs, and the maid who was waiting in the room opened the window. The princess and Wang Shiba Niang came to the window and looked downstairs at the stage.
While the people on the stage were still saying something loudly, they heard a male voice in the private room next door shout in surprise: "Hey, Xiao Shiba, are you coming to see the neon dance too?"
Wang Shiba Niang heard someone calling her, so she went to look around. It turned out that it was the young boy in the next room calling her.
“Zhang Silang, who did you come with?
I am with Princess Taiping. ”
Speaking of these words, Wang Shiba Niang turned sideways, revealing Princess Taiping behind her.
Princess Taiping looked at the young man Zhang Jiasilang opposite with red lips and white teeth. Zhen (zhěn) smiled slightly, and when Zhang Silang saw that it was indeed Princess Taiping, he quickly bowed his head and saluted, saying: "Princess is well. "
"Mr. Zhang Silang, this is outside the palace, so there is no need to be polite. "
When the five or six young men behind Zhang Silang heard that Princess Taiping was coming, they hurried to the window one by one to greet her.
While several people were talking, the people on the stage downstairs had already finished speaking, and the musicians started playing music.
Everyone stopped talking and concentrated on watching the music and dance in the audience.
I saw more than a dozen dancers wearing snail buns, yellow-green dresses, and two long water sleeves stepping onto the stage on lotus steps.
As the music speeds up, the dancers change from lotus steps to small steps. The music changes and the dancers throw out their sleeves.
As soon as the neon dress dance performance was over, everyone was still unsatisfied.
"I have to say, this neon dress dance is really beautiful, with beautiful rhythm and light dancing posture. It really deserves to be appreciated."
As soon as Princess Taiping said the words of appreciation, Princess Taiping, who had been standing in the corner of the room, The maid then got up and went out to take out the money from the maid standing outside the door.
Seeing this, the other girls also took out their purses to reward people.
While the table downstairs was about to change props, a maid carrying a tea tray came into the private room. No one paid attention to it, only thinking that she was someone who came in to refill the tea.
As a result, it was too late, but Princess Taiping was thinking about eating another ghee-soaked snail with plum sauce, when this person grabbed her arm from behind.
Princess Taiping was about to scream when her mouth was covered. Then before anyone could react, the man slashed Princess Taiping's neck with a knife. Princess Taiping tilted her head and fainted.
At the same time, many people dressed as maids filed in from outside the door. In just a few breaths, the other little girls in the room were all controlled.
Similarly, the young men in the next room did not escape the hands of the gangsters.
Ah, I was kidnapped!
