Chapter 95 An Zhinan Gets Lost

An Zhiyan saw a crossword puzzler in front of him, he repeatedly tugged on An Yanshu's sleeve and said, "Look quickly, brother, there is a lantern riddle guesser over there, hurry up and win a rabbit lantern for my sister, my sister will definitely be happy."

An Yanshu glanced at An Zhiyan, and said in a rather flat tone, "Why don't you go?"

"Isn't it that I have no knowledge? You are the smartest in the family. If you are not good enough, then don't count on me."

Seeing An Zhiyan's upright appearance, An Yanshu was almost amused by his 'shameless' remarks.

An Zhinan also saw the booth for guessing lantern riddles. The big three characters were so eye-catching that it was difficult for people not to see them.

A lot of papers were hung on the small stalls, with various lantern riddles written on them, and all kinds of lanterns were hung around the small stalls, including rabbits, pigs, horses, lotus flowers, etc.

When An Zhinan and his group came to the front, An Yanshu and An Zhiyan had already been waiting for a while.

An Zhiyan pointed to the rabbit-shaped lantern and said to An Zhinan: "Sister, look at that lantern, it's so cute, do you like it? If you like it, let the elder brother win for you."

An Zhinan smiled and nodded: "Okay, I believe in the strength of big brother."

With his sister's affirmation, the corners of An Yanshu's mouth could not help but rise, and he strode forward to check the lantern riddles.

"After 40 years of parting, we will be together at the Lantern Festival? What kind of lantern riddle is this?" An Zhiyan casually picked up a piece of paper to read it, and was stunned for a while, then picked up another lantern riddle: "The waves behind the Yangtze River push the waves ahead? Idioms ?”

Seeing An Zhiyan's completely bewildered expression, An Yanshu shook his head, and first asked the boss, "Shopkeeper, how can I get the rabbit lamp?"

The owner of the shop is a middle-aged man, round and round, with a naive smile: "Rabbits are my signature here. You have to guess at least four lantern riddles correctly."

After asking, An Yanshu took out four coins from the purse to the shop owner, then picked up the two lantern riddles that An Zhiyan read before, and randomly took two from the side.

He glanced at the first two pictures and said, "This first picture should be a word for 'dance', a dance that can sing and dance well, and the idiom of this second picture is climax after another."

Seeing the shop owner smiling and nodding, An Yanshu continued to open the third sheet, glanced at it and frowned slightly: "Go all the way?"

After thinking for a while, An Yanshu's eyebrows relaxed, and he said loudly: "It's a cloud word."

The last piece of An Yan's book didn't think too much, and said with a smile: "More than half? It's a good question, it's an evening word."

"Haha, young master is so smart, you got all the answers right. Do you want a rabbit lamp? Here."

The owner of the store readily took down the lantern and handed it to An Yanshu. Every crossword puzzle was created by the children of the family after reading many books. The lantern was also made by the wife of the family. There was no cost at all. If someone answered it correctly, I would only be happy.

An Yanshu directly handed the lantern to his sister, and said in a warm voice, "Isn't it ready yet?"

"Hey, thank you big brother, big brother is really amazing."

An Yanshu's smile suddenly widened, and he was very satisfied.

Holding the lantern in his hand, the more he looked at it, the more he couldn't put it down. Feeling the envious eyes of some women around him, An Zhinan was only satisfied.

"This lantern is tied well, it looks like it was made by a skillful person," Mrs. An praised her granddaughter when she saw that her granddaughter liked it.

The boss at the side was very happy to hear that his wife's craftsmanship was praised, and wished to give them another lantern, but turned around and saw that everyone had left.

There were too many pedestrians on the street, even though An Zhinan was led by his grandma, he couldn't avoid being scattered by the pedestrians, and he was afraid that his family would be worried, so he had to search all the way with the rabbit lamp.

On the other hand, Mrs. An didn't notice that An Zhinan was missing at all, and she was still admiring the street vendors with great interest.

An Zhiyan saw that there was a candied haws seller, so he turned around and was about to call his sister, but saw an unbelievable scene, and ran to Mrs. An anxiously: "Grandma, where is my sister?"

"You're blind, aren't you here?" Mrs. An turned her head to look at the 'granddaughter' she was holding, her eyes almost popping out.

Where did this chubby kid come from?

What about my baby granddaughter?
An old man, An Chongyuan, and the others also found that Mrs. An had led the wrong person, and An Zhinan had disappeared, so they became anxious.

"Mother, haven't you been holding Nannan all this time? Where's her?" An Chongyuan's eyes were red with anxiety.

Mrs. An was also confused: "I don't know, I've been holding Nannan all this time, but I was washed away just now, so I quickly grabbed... just now..."

After saying that, Mrs. An came to her senses and slapped her face fiercely: "Oh, it must have been washed away just now."

On the contrary, An Yanshu looked at the well-behaved and innocent little boy next to Mrs. An, and saw that the age was about the same as his own sister, and asked slightly in his heart: "Little brother, where is your family?"

The little boy blinked and shook his head again and again: "I don't know, I ran out by myself."

An Yanshu: ...

"In this way, Nannan should not be far away from us. It's far away. You look east, Zhiyan, you look west, and your grandma and I look north. As for Yanshu, you take your children to look for his house, don't worry about it." Lost one."

Old man An quickly regained his composure, and calmly arranged for everyone to disperse and search for An Zhinan.

An Yanshu also missed his little sister, and was extremely worried, but his grandfather arranged to send the kid home by himself, so he couldn't say anything, so he nodded.

Before leaving, An Yanshu told An Zhiyan, "If you find your sister, go home and wait, don't run around outside."

"Understood, brother," said An Zhiyan and ran away.

After the people left, An Yanshu took the little boy to a place with few people, knelt down and asked, "Where is your home? I'll take you back."

"No return, no return, I ran out with great difficulty, and I won't go back," said with rolling eyes, baring his teeth, "Big brother, are you worried about your sister? How about I accompany you to find her?" Find it, and then go home, okay?"

An Yanshu, who was worried about his sister at first, was overwhelmed by what he said, and after thinking about it, he shook his head: "No, I will take you home first, you see how worried my sister is when I disappear, you sneaked out alone, and there are so many people outside." Man, your family must be very worried about you."

The ten-year-old child was really afraid of worrying at home, so he nodded obediently: "Okay, then I will trouble my elder brother to take me home."

Fortunately, the little boy is a local and knows where his home is. Under his guidance, An Yanshu took him for nearly half an hour before arriving.

Looking at the government office in front of him, An Yanshu froze for a moment.

"Are you the son of the magistrate's family?"

The little boy nodded honestly: "Yes, my father is the magistrate, big brother, do you know my father?"

An Yanshu shook his head, it was his turn to get to know each other.

As soon as he was about to go forward, the door opened from inside, and a group of servants rushed out. A well-dressed woman walked at the end, slapping the middle-aged man beside her with tears on her face.

"Master, son? Oh, Mrs. Ma'am, the master is back," a nanny shouted when she saw the little boy's eyes brighten up.
