Shop of All Worlds: The First Customer Princess Jinyang
Chapter 248 Fireworks and Firecrackers
Ye Jiangnan only felt a buzzing sound in his head, and his whole body felt a little dazed.
I didn’t do anything, so how come I became the bad guy in the eyes of these three little guys?
Little Sizi’s cheeks were puffed up like an angry little squirrel, and he muttered:
“Xiao Nag-kun went to fight zombies, why didn’t he wake us up?”
“why!”
The tone was full of questioning, but also with a hint of grievance, as if Ye Jiangnan had committed an unforgivable mistake.
Ying Yinman also stepped forward, with a serious face, just like a little adult:
“Master, we are your disciples.”
“How can you go alone on such a dangerous zombie-killing mission?”
“You are already quite old. What if something goes wrong and you get hurt?”
The tone was like educating an ignorant child.
Zhu Wanqing spoke in a baby voice and was not very fluent, but she was not willing to be outdone:
“Liger is a bad guy! He won’t take us to play!”
Perhaps the two sisters before her had already said everything they wanted to say, so she had no choice but to keep repeating this sentence.
After hearing this, Ye Jiangnan felt mixed emotions.
I was touched by the concern of the three little ones, but at the same time I did not know whether to laugh or cry at their strange accusations.
What do you mean by “I’m old enough”? What do you mean by “I won’t take them out to play”?
“Cough cough…”
Ye Jiangnan coughed twice, trying to defend himself:
“You can’t blame me, Master.”
“You guys are the ones who are lazy and overslept. I’ve reminded you many times not to sleep in, but you just wouldn’t listen.”
“Now that you missed it, how can you blame me?”
When the three little guys heard this, they immediately became like eggplants hit by frost – they wilted, lowered their heads in embarrassment, and were speechless.
After all, the master did remind me a long time ago.
“Also, Master is not going there for fun.”
“Fighting zombies is to eliminate harm to the people, to prevent those zombies from harming innocent people. This cannot be confused with playing. Do you understand?”
Ye Jiangnan said earnestly, looking at the three little guys with gentle eyes.
The little ones nodded stupidly, looking very well-behaved.
Little Sizi pouted, with anticipation glittering in his eyes:
“So, Xiao Neng-jun, will you take us with you next time?”
Ying Yinman and Zhu Wanqing also cast expectant glances, looking at Ye Jiangnan eagerly.
“Next time, definitely next time.”
Ye Jiangnan waved his hands repeatedly, as if he was comforting three little cats craving for candy.
Wencai, who woke up with the three little ones, was not so “lucky”.
Lin Fengjiao scolded unhappily:
“I asked you to guard the charity cemetery, but you slept like a dead pig!”
“If the immortal hadn’t been here, who knows how many people the zombies would have killed!”
“From now on, you should just sleep as much as you can during the day and not sleep at night!”
Wencai made a bitter face and begged:
“Master, please don’t… Besides, don’t we still have Qiu Sheng?”
“Let Qiu Sheng watch over it at night!”
Qiu Sheng, who was standing by, immediately retorted when he heard this:
“What does it have to do with me?”
“I have to learn Taoism from my master during the day, and my back and waist ache every day. How about you?”
Lin Fengjiao didn’t say anything. What Qiu Sheng said was indeed reasonable. Studying Taoism was hard work. Qiu Sheng had good talent and was diligent and hardworking. Wencai really didn’t have much talent, and she had never forced him.
“Wencai, from today on, you will sleep during the day.”
Lin Fengjiao emphasized again.
Wencai opened his mouth and wanted to defend himself, but he didn’t know where to start, so he could only complain to himself.
After Ye Jiangnan finished chatting with the three little guys, he prepared to leave.
“Uncle Jiu, we are leaving.”
He said to Lin Fengjiao.
“So soon? Why don’t you stay a few days to play?”
Lin Fengjiao tried to persuade him to stay.
Ye Jiangnan shook his head.
“No, I’ve played everything I should play.”
Lin Fengjiao no longer insisted and nodded gently:
“Immortal, I’ll see you off then.”
“No, let’s say goodbye here.”
After Ye Jiangnan finished speaking, he waved to the three little guys.
The little ones immediately ran over like happy little deer.
Ye Jiangnan held Xiao Sizi’s hand, Xiao Sizi held Ying Yinman’s hand, Ying Yinman held Zhu Wanqing’s hand, and Zhu Wanqing held Ren Tingting’s hand tightly.
Ye Jiangnan looked at Zhu Wanqing who refused to let go, and felt helpless:
“Baoqing, what are you doing? Let go of your sister Tingting’s hand, we have to go back.”
Zhu Wanqing’s eyes were red, and she looked reluctant:
“Don’t don’t!”
“I want Sister Tingting to go back with me.”
Ye Jiangnan explained helplessly:
“Your sister Tingting’s home is here, and she has a lot of things to deal with. How can she come with us?”
Ren Tingting’s father Ren Fagang passed away, and the Ren family’s huge business needs her to manage. If she leaves, these businesses will probably fall into the hands of others.
“Well……”
Zhu Wanqing raised her head and looked at Ren Tingting pitifully.
“Sister Tingting…”
Ren Tingting rubbed Zhu Wanqing’s little head distressedly and said softly:
“Sister Wanqing, please go back with Mr. Ye first.”
“I’ll come find you when I’m done, okay?”
In fact, she was reluctant to leave these three lovely little guys and wanted to leave with them, but reality did not allow it.
“Really? You’ll come find us when you’re done, right?”
The little guy was still a little worried and asked.
Ren Tingting smiled and nodded.
Seeing this, Ye Jiangnan took out a membership card and handed it to Ren Tingting:
“Tingting, if you want to come, just take this card and say the word ‘go’ silently in your mind, and you will be able to come to my place.”
Ren Tingting took it doubtfully, but before she could ask, Ye Jiangnan explained how to use it.
She said gratefully:
“Thank you, Immortal!”
Ye Jiangnan took out another card and gave it to Lin Fengjiao:
“Uncle Jiu, this card is for you. You can use it the same way as Tingting’s.”
“Thank you, Immortal.”
Lin Fengjiao took the card and bowed to express her gratitude.
After saying goodbye again, Ye Jiangnan led everyone back to the Wanjie Store.
As soon as I entered the door, I saw that the yard was bustling with people. Looking carefully, I found that people I knew and those I didn’t know were all there.
“Fairy!”
Someone shouted and everyone turned their heads at once.
Ye Jiangnan nodded slightly:
“Why is everyone here today?”
Yu Shu walked out of the crowd with a smile on her face and came to Ye Jiangnan:
“Sir, I was the one who brought everyone together.”
“The Chinese New Year is just around the corner, and I wanted to get everyone together before the New Year.”
“New Year’s Eve?”
Ye Jiangnan was slightly stunned, then looked at the big screen at the entrance of the store.
The store has its own time and calendar, and according to what is displayed, the Chinese New Year is indeed approaching.
“I see.”
Ye Jiangnan nodded.
“Is it that girl Huang Rong who cooked?”
With so many people here and it’s Chinese New Year, it certainly can’t be dealt with as easily as usual.
Yu Shu smiled and said:
“Yes.”
“We’ll have hot pot later. Sister Rong, Ah Zhu, Ah Bi and the others are preparing the food. I’ll entertain everyone here.”
“Thanks for your hard work.”
Ye Jiangnan said, and then said to everyone.
“Everyone, please sit down. We are all family, so don’t be restrained.” Then everyone sat down.
As soon as the three little guys, Xiao Sizi, Ying Yinman and Zhu Wanqing came back, they ran quickly to their father like three little birds returning to their nests.
“Grandpa, Sizi misses you so much!”
Little Sizi hugged Li Shimin’s arm tightly and acted coquettishly.
“Father, I miss you too!”
Ying Yinman hugged Qin Shihuang’s thigh with an intimate look on her face.
“Father, I miss you so much.”
Zhu Wanqing hugged Zhu Yuanzhang’s thigh and spoke in a baby voice.
Liu Bang looked at this scene and couldn’t help feeling a little envious.
But then he realized why he was envious, because he also had a daughter, just older.
“Gaozu, are you jealous?”
Liu Xiu came over at some point and joked.
“I envy you?”
“I, Liu Bang, am not without a daughter. What is there to be envious of?”
Liu Bang immediately refuted and looked like he would never admit it.
Liu Xiu rolled his eyes secretly. He saw it clearly. Liu Bang’s envious look was almost overflowing, but he still kept pretending to be stubborn.
Liu Bang quickly changed the subject:
“Okay, let’s go and pay our respects to the Immortal.”
“The immortal doesn’t recognize us yet, let’s go over and say hello.”
Liu Xiu nodded, and the two of them walked towards Ye Jiangnan.
At this time, Ye Jiangnan was discussing New Year’s arrangements with Yu Shu. Seeing Liu Bang and Liu Xiu coming, he greeted them with a smile.
“Fairy!”
Liu Bang and Liu Xiu bowed to Ye Jiangnan together.
Yu Shu introduced:
“My lord, this is Liu Bang, the founding emperor of the Han Dynasty.”
“This is Liu Xiu, his descendant.”
Ye Jiangnan nodded.
It turned out to be these two people.
Ye Jiangnan nodded with a gentle smile on his face.
“Liu Bang, Emperor Gaozu of Han…”
“Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu…”
“Your Liu family can do it.”
What Ye Jiangnan said was true, meaning that the Han Dynasty experienced great ups and downs during the Liu family’s lifetime.
The Han Dynasty was about to fall, but then Liu Xiu appeared.
Later, when the country was about to be destroyed, Liu Bei appeared.
Later, another Liu Yuan appeared…
Liu Bang and Liu Xiu thought Ye Jiangnan was praising them, and they felt proud and happy.
Liu Bang smiled heartily:
“The immortals have great magical powers. They can open up such a wonderful place in the myriad worlds. We really admire them.”
“I have come here presumptuously today, I hope the Immortal will not blame me.”
Liu Xiu looked sincere and added:
“I heard that there are many miraculous things happening here, so I came here with my great ancestor, firstly to greet the immortal, and secondly to see this extraordinary place.”
Ye Jiangnan waved his hand.
“We are all destined to be together, so there is no need to be so polite. Since you are here, just treat it as your own home and be more casual.”
At this time, Huang Rong rushed out of the kitchen with a spatula in her hand.
“Sister Yushu, the soup base for the hot pot is ready, we are just waiting for the ingredients to be served.”
She glanced at Ye Jiangnan who had returned and said sarcastically:
“Hey, it’s almost time for dinner, someone is back!”
“If they don’t come back, I’ll think some of them have found a new home out there and won’t want to come back!”
After saying that, Huang Rong didn’t give Ye Jiangnan a chance to speak and ran into the kitchen again.
Ye Jiangnan looked at the place where Huang Rong had just stood in confusion and asked Yu Shu:
“No, what does she mean?”
“Did I provoke her?”
Yu Shu chuckled and said:
“Sister Rong is just like that, you know that.”
“Also, she came to see you several times, but you were not there every time.”
“So, she had some resentment in her heart.”
Ye Jiangnan: “…”
“Then doesn’t she know how to make a phone call?”
Ye Jiangnan knew that Huang Rong bought a mobile phone at the Wanjie Store.
We all have mobile phones, so how difficult is it to make a phone call?
Yu Shu said helplessly:
“I called, but no one answered.”
“Later, she called Sizi and the others. They answered the call but said you were not there.”
Ye Jiangnan: “…”
“My phone is turned off?”
Thinking of this, Ye Jiangnan took out his cell phone.
have to.
It is indeed turned off.
No wonder I didn’t receive the call.
“Okay, forget about her and let’s eat first.”
Yu Shu nodded.
Everyone moved to the long table filled with food and sat around it.
The hot pot was steaming and fragrant. Everyone was enjoying the food and chatting at the same time.
Liu Bang was enjoying the meal, slapping his hands on the table and exclaiming:
“I have never tasted hot pot like this before. Today, I am really enjoying a feast here at the Immortal’s place!”
Liu Xiu also nodded in agreement:
“Yes, such delicious food, coupled with this lively atmosphere, does have a taste of a peaceful and prosperous family reunion.”
As he was speaking, a melodious yet mysterious music suddenly sounded in the store.
Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and saw a black box appear in the corner of the store.
That’s where the music comes from.
Liu Xiu frowned, and his hand unconsciously reached for the sword at his waist:
“What is this? Is there any accident?”
Ye Jiangnan smiled and explained: “This is a speaker that can play music. It’s not dangerous, so don’t panic.”
Only then did everyone relax and immerse themselves in the singing.
“Congratulations on your fortune… I congratulate you on your wealth…”
Xiao Sizi’s face turned red from eating, and he pulled Ye Jiangnan’s sleeve:
“Xiao Nianjun, what else can we do during the Chinese New Year besides eating hot pot?”
Before Ye Jiangnan could answer, Li Shimin smiled and pinched his daughter’s face:
“Sizi, grandpa will take you to set off fireworks later, okay?”
“Fireworks! Fireworks!”
Xiao Sizi jumped up with excitement, and Ying Yinman and Zhu Wanqing also cheered.
Ye Jiangnan stood up and took out a bunch of fireworks and firecrackers from the store’s storage room, and everyone came to the open area outside the yard.
Liu Bang looked at the strangely shaped fireworks in his hand with a puzzled look on his face.
“How do I use this thing?”
Ye Jiangnan demonstrated patiently and lit the fuse. In an instant, the fireworks shot straight into the sky, blooming with colorful lights in the night sky.
Everyone exclaimed in amazement, the children screamed with excitement, and the adults were also infected by the beautiful scenery, with smiles on their faces.
“firecracker?!”
“Yes! We have to set off firecrackers during the New Year!”
When Xiao Sizi saw the fireworks, he suddenly remembered something.
However, the noise of the fireworks was so loud that no one else could hear what she said except Ying Yinman and Zhu Wanqing who were beside her.
“Junior sisters, let’s go get the firecrackers!”
Xiao Sizi held Ying Yinman in one hand and Zhu Wanqing in the other.
The two little guys nodded excitedly.
While everyone was watching the fireworks, three little guys sneaked into the store. (End of this chapter)
