Taking away my family's luck? I won't stand it!

Chapter 665 The Bustling Market

"Mother, I want to go to the street to see the play and the lanterns." After watching the fireworks, Yao Yao looked at Shen Chulan with a lingering expression.

Shen Chulan was completely powerless to resist this cute and adorable face. Her heart melted, and she gently pinched Yao Yao's soft cheeks before nodding in agreement, "Yao Yao can go if she wants to. The streets are very lively right now."

"Let's go, let's go play in the street!" Upon hearing this, Guoan immediately jumped up excitedly.

The Yuan family doesn't restrict their children from playing in the street, but today is different from usual, and the children are still very enthusiastic about going to the street.

The children of the villagers in Lihua Village naturally went with Yaoyao and the others.

Those who were older stayed in the general's mansion to chat and drink tea with Old Man Yuan and Old Lady Liu.

There are also Xiaoqing, Xiaobai, Xiaohei, and Dabai, who secretly drink at home...

A sip of wine, a bite of peanuts, a snack to go with the wine—the aroma was so enticing they were practically lost in the moment.

Shen Chulan, Ye Wan, Yuan Laoda, Yuan Laoer, Yuan Laosan, and Yuan Laosi were followed by a string of little radish heads.

And the maids and servants who can rest tonight.

Instead of taking a carriage, the group decided to walk to the street.

As soon as you step out of the General's Mansion, you see every household decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations. The sounds of firecrackers and children playing in the streets and alleys instantly reach everyone's ears, and the dazzling fireworks make the entire capital city seem like daytime.

The shouts of vendors reached everyone's ears; some were selling candied hawthorns, some were selling sugar cakes, some were selling lamb skewers, and some were selling river lanterns.

The children surrounded the vendors, begging their parents to buy the things they wanted.

After a year of hard work, parents are unusually generous, taking out copper coins for their children to buy things. This is why the Lunar New Year is the most anticipated festival of the year for children.

On New Year's Eve, the human world was unusually bustling, unlike anything in the mortal realm..........................

Tonight is Lunar New Year's Eve, and many shops have been closing since the afternoon. Only street vendors are hawking their wares.

"Mommy, I want to eat grilled lamb skewers!" Guoan pointed to the lamb skewer stall.

Everyone's eyes turned to the lamb kebab stall that Guoan was pointing to. The stall was small, and people could pick out their kebabs at any time.

Freshly skewered lamb grills over charcoal, and the aroma of spices instantly fills the air.

Instantly, my stomach started rumbling with cravings.

Especially Yao Yao, as soon as she saw something delicious, she struggled to climb off Yuan Lao Er and ran to the lamb skewer stall.

She stretched out five chubby fingers, her eyes sparkling, and said in a childish voice, "Big brother, I want five skewers."

The owner of the lamb kebab stall was a burly man with a beard. It was the first time I had ever heard anyone call him "big brother." People usually called him "boss," "uncle," or "grandpa."

Hearing someone call him so young made him very happy. He grinned and looked at Yao Yao with a grin, "Buy five skewers, and big brother will give you another lamb skewer for free!"

Upon hearing this, Yao Yao squinted her eyes and thanked him in a childish voice.

"Thank you, big brother. You're so kind."

The bright, sparkling eyes spoke with particular sincerity, so sincere that the burly man touched his face, wondering if he had recently become younger.

Guoan's eyes lit up.

I rushed to the lamb skewer stall and looked at the owner with incredibly bright and sincere eyes.

"Big brother, I want to buy five skewers too. Big brother, you're so handsome."

After saying that, he looked at the lamb skewer vendor with expectant eyes.

"Okay, big brother will give you a lamb skewer too." It was the first time someone had complimented his looks. The lamb skewer vendor happily grilled the skewers, looking at the two little children with similar features in front of him. "You two are really good-looking, but can you eat six lamb skewers by yourself?"

"can!"

The two little radish heads, with their round heads, are exceptionally cute.

Soon, the lamb skewers were ready. The lamb skewer vendor smiled and carefully handed the grilled skewers to the two little children, saying gently, "Here, be careful, it's hot."

Guoan and Yaoyao couldn't wait to take a bite of the lamb skewer. The aroma made their eyes squint, and their faces showed a satisfied expression.

The lamb skewer vendor watched them eat with a broad smile, clearly very pleased.

However, he soon lost his joy.

Led by Guoping, they squeezed into the lamb skewer stall with a string of radish heads, each one of them speaking sweetly, calling out "Brother, brother!"

The lamb skewer vendor was dumbfounded...

This wave is aimed at him.

I reluctantly gave each of them a skewer.

With a satisfied expression, Luo Botou left the stall with six skewers of lamb, heading off to the next session.

Upon arriving in the city center, the deafening sound of drums and gongs from dragon and lion dances quickly drew the attention of the locals, whose faces beamed with joy.

"I want to eat sugar paintings, candied hawthorns, and sugar cakes!" Yao Yao pointed her chubby fingers at several vendors, ordering what she wanted to eat as if she were looking at a menu.

“Okay, okay…” Shen Chulan agreed repeatedly.

Just as Shen Chulan was about to buy what Yao Yao wanted, Yao Yao suddenly seemed to see something and ran in the opposite direction.

"Yaoyao, where are you going?" Shen Chulan called out hurriedly.

"Yeah, where did you go?"

Yuan Lao Er chased after him.

Yao Yao stopped and looked at them, saying in her childish voice, "The pretty older sister is about to give birth, I'm going to go see."

Upon hearing this, Ye Wan immediately thought of Granny Nan, who was pregnant with twins.

Lady Chu.

"How did you know that Madam Chu was about to give birth?"

Yao Yao blinked. "I saw it."

Those two dazzling blue and pink lights in the sky are hard to miss.

They finally came out.

As she thought about it, a wicked smile crept onto Yao Yao's lips.

Guoan, Guoping, Guoxing, and Guowang also saw the blue and pink lights in the sky and nodded in unison.

“Mother, we saw Aunt too.”

“Mother, Auntie, we saw it too.”

Shen Chulan and Ye Wan exchanged a glance, then their gazes fell on Yao Yao. "In that case, we should go and see if we can share in the joy."
