Chapter 25 Mid-Autumn Festival

There are lights and decorations in the bustling street markets. Most of the people who set up stalls are men, and there are very few women. Even if there are, they are still older. There are many women who are already married and mothers, and they come out with their husbands and children.

"Master Jiu, what are you doing there?" Gong Meier touched Master Jiu with her elbow, and pointed to a place on the street surrounded by a circle of people.

Young Master Jiu looked along Gong Meier's hand, "I'm guessing a riddle, why, do you want to go?"

Gong Meier nodded. She really wanted to participate in activities in this era. Seeing that she was very interested, Young Master Nine pulled her wrist and squeezed into the crowd.

A man with a pile of candied haws stood in the middle of the crowd. He shouted loudly: "If you guess correctly, give the candied haws! If you don't look out on the left, or you don't look out on the right, either you don't look out or you don't look out. Type a word!" Before Gong Mei'er could use her brain, someone in the crowd shouted: "Lin!" The man smiled and handed the guessing man a string of candied haws, saying, "Your brain is so good!"

"Mei'er, do you want candied haws?" Young Master Jiu leaned into Gong Mei'er's ear and asked softly.

"I think about it, but it's too difficult to guess. Before I could think about it, someone called out the answer." Gong Meier bit her lower lip.

"I will get a bunch of candied haws for you."

The man stood back in the middle of the crowd, "Next question! Dear guests, listen! The peach blossoms flowing water is three thousand feet long, not as good as Wang Lun's love. Let me write an idiom!"

"The love is deep." Young Master Ninth raised the corner of his mouth and replied without thinking.

"Oh! I met several talented men today, and I answered so quickly!" The man came over and handed a string of candied haws to Master Jiu. Master Jiu took the candied haws and handed them to Gong Meier.

Gong Meier raised her eyebrows, and now she believed that Young Master Jiu was still a little knowledgeable in her stomach. She took the candied haws and bit off the first hawthorn in one bite. The ancient candied haws were much more delicious than modern ones. What words should be used to describe them? It is most appropriate to be sweet but not greasy.

"Is it delicious?" Young Master Jiu likes to see Gong Meier eat the most. She always swallows her mouth full of food. Her cheeks are bulging when chewing, which is very cute.

"tasty."

"Then, aren't you going to give me a taste? This is what I have exchanged for you with my deep affection."

Of course, Gong Meier heard that Young Master Jiu had something in his words. The deep love content was too heavy, and Gong Meier didn't want to take it. So she quickly bit another hawthorn and chewed while saying, "Young Master Jiu, this candied haws are full of syrup. Syrup is not good for teeth and is prone to dental decay. So, you'd better not eat it."

"Then how can you eat it? I can't?"

"How can I be the same as Master Ninth? Master Ninth is the general's son. If he exposes tooth decay to the guests when he marrys a cousin in the future, it would be really not good."

Master Nine grabbed Gong Meier's arm and held her into his arms, "Bong Meier, why are you so stingy? I just want to take a bite of your candied haws, so you use such a ridiculous reason to reject me?"

"Let go!" Gong Meier struggled for a while, but could not break free from his arm. Gong Meier thought to herself: If it weren't for the inconvenience of doing things on the street, I would definitely let you suffer from Taekwondo again!

"I won't let it go."

"Let go quickly! So many people are watching on the street!"

"What are you afraid of? You are a man now."

"It is precisely because I am a man now that you have to let me go!"

"Why? Gong Meier, aren't you afraid that others will say we are broken sleeves, right?" After that, Young Master Jiu laughed. Gong Meier still had anger on his face, "What do you want!"

"If it were just now, you'd better give me a bite of the candied haws. But if you toast, you'd be fined for wine, so now you have to feed me one before I can let you go."

Gong Meier had no choice but to endure the pain, she had to close her eyes and hand the candied haws to Master Jiu's mouth. Master Jiu bit off one with satisfaction and let go of Gong Meier. After all, he didn't want to be said to be a broken sleeve.

The two of them were in a deadlock again. They walked one after another. Gong Meier followed the Jiu Shao Master without saying a word. The Jiu Shao Master was in a good mood and seemed to be stepping on the clouds when he walked. Gong Meier looked at the back of Yushu Linfeng in front of him, and suddenly felt that it was ridiculous that he was angry. He obviously did nothing, but why did she hate him and reject him for no reason?

Just as he was thinking, a strong man suddenly hit Gong Meier. "Oh!" Gong Meier fell to the ground with the man.

"Do you have eyes?" The man was so angry that he grabbed Gong Meier's collar and shouted. Gong Meier had no time to feel the pain, so he quickly raised his head and apologized: "I'm sorry, brother, I didn't do it on purpose." Although she had "unique skills", she could not easily make a statement in such a downtown market.

When the man saw Gong Meier, he suddenly stopped getting angry, "Little sister, it's useless to say sorry. Come on, you play with your brother, and your brother won't be angry." After that, he pulled Gong Meier into his arms.

Gong Meier's face turned pale because of scare. Little sister? How did he know that she is a woman? Costume dramas and romance novels are both lying! A woman can't play a good role as a man! The difference between appearance and body shape is too big!

"Let her go! She has apologized to you." Suddenly a man appeared, pulling Gong Meier out of the fierce man's arms.

"You little brat, I want you to meddle in other people's business!" The tough man was about to hit him with one punch, but the man who was protecting Gong Meier also had unique skills. He grabbed the fist of the tough man and pinched it hard. The tough man screamed in pain and ran away with a piss.

Gong Meier then breathed a sigh of relief, lowered her head and fists to face the man who saved her, and said, "Thank you, brother, for saving me!"

"Hey? Are you not that girl from Brother Xiao?" The man suddenly spoke. Gong Meier heard the sound a little familiar. When she looked up, she saw that it was Master Jiu's good brother Lu Zhiyin.

"Young Master Lu?" Gong Meier met someone she knew here and couldn't help but smile.

"Why are you here? Are you alone?"

"No, it was Master Jiu who brought me here. By the way... Where is Master Jiu?" After saying this, Gong Meier remembered, where is Master Jiu? She suddenly became a little panicked, turned her head and looked around, but there was no sign of Master Jiu. Oh no, it must be the moment when the fierce man hit her just now, which caused her and Master Jiu to get separated.

Lu Zhiyin saw Gong Meier's panic look on his face, and he already understood what was going on, so he quickly comforted him: "It's okay, don't worry. Brother Xiao is very familiar with this place, he will definitely find you. Why not, let's wait here for a while. He finds that you are missing and will definitely come back to find you."

Gong Meier nodded, and now she can only do this.
