pasture leisure

Boom, boom, clang!
A burst of drums combined with the sound of gongs immediately attracted the attention of Zhang Chi and others.

Hahahaha!

A burst of laughter immediately spread like ripples in the crowd. The adults laughed while the children shouted loudly.

What came into view was the team of Wei Huachuan, a group of old men dressed in extremely gorgeous clothes, with powder and blush on their faces, and some even had a big black mole on the corner of their mouth.

If you don't look carefully, you can't find that these people are all American gentlemen.

Of course, it’s not easy not to find men, because many men like Amber like to grow beards, that is, grow beards. All kinds of long beards are paired with fancy women’s clothing, and the comedy effect is pulled up at once.

When these Americans saw it, they thought it was a Chinese-style clown, so the American crowd onlookers burst into laughter before they made any moves.

Americans have a characteristic, that is, people come crazy.

It’s not fun when there are few people, but the more people there are, they are more active, so when they first entered the arena, a bunch of old cowboys who pretended to be boatmen and boatwives were a bit awkward. A bunch of robots.

But as they entered the arena, the surrounding crowd continued to applaud, and everyone gradually let go. The twisting was called one wave against another, and the movements were called one bigger than the other.

When Li Qiao saw Zhang Chi, he was also very surprised: "Did you two set up a stall?"

The two knew at a glance that their daughter was either peeing or defecating, or she was going to breastfeed. It was not good to do these three things in front of the group, so the two found out the crowd and found a place where there were no people.

There are still quite a few people. There are only seven or eight people who are taught, and there are even more people who learn. Most of them are children. They learn to write Fu characters from the teacher, and then read them out in Chinese.

It is true that there is no need to make your grandparents popular, because the popularity in front of their small stall is soaring now. There is a long queue, and there are two corners directly in front of their stall. There are almost 30 to [-] people queuing in front.

"Well, we are really too busy here, come back when you are not busy, and let you try our hometown's pancake rolls." Li Qiao and his wife really don't have time to greet them now.

Fortunately, Zhang Chi's family of three and two adults plus a child who can't speak yet, if he can run and jump, he might not be able to walk now, and he has to put something in his mouth to be safe.

So a circle of concentric circles came out, the center circle was the group of old men from Amber on the Huahua boat, and the outer circle was the tourists who joined in first.

"Now we don't have to help our grandparents to get angry."

I finally saw my own stall, but it was still very busy, so busy that I didn't have time to talk to Zhang Chi, and everything was sold out in a blink of an eye.

Originally thought that the three stalls of my family were together, but who knew they were not together, and even after walking a hundred or so steps, I didn't see my parents, or my uncle and aunt.

"Let's come and help," Melika said.

The old lady doesn't know much about American money, but there are numbers on the US dollars. She doesn't recognize money but she knows how to count, so when people give her twenty, she finds fifteen dollars, and when they give her ten dollars, she finds five dollars. .

Looking at it, Zhang Chi felt that he might as well sell candied haws tomorrow.

The family of three turned out, raised their hands and looked at their watch, and found that they had been walking here for about two hours before they knew it.

Miao Guifang immediately said: "No, no, just play your own game."

Of course, there were still some people in the previous paragraph, mainly men and women looking for water on the roadside.

The hawthorn is home-grown, and the sticks are simple. These things are directly imported from China. The cheapness is really cheap, that is to say, there is almost no cost except labor costs, and then five dollars a bunch.

So Zhang Chi and his wife continued to move forward, originally thinking about getting something to eat, but along the way, as long as there was a stall in front of it, there was a queue.

In fact, Zhang Chi also knows that so many people are not afraid that something will not be sold, just like Zhang Chi once heard a boss who did business at the railway station say that selling things here, even if you sell shit, there are good things After the process, I want to buy two lumps to taste the saltiness.

But I didn't see these two stalls, but I saw Li Qiao's stall.

"Da Chi, take Xiaomei to play first, today is very lively..." The old lady was busy while talking, and she seemed to want to send away her grandson and granddaughter-in-law quickly, because she was too busy, busy There is no effort to make money and gossip with young couples.

Zhang Chi nodded and hummed.

Zhang Chi was a little dumbfounded when he saw that Li Qiao and his wife were selling sesame seed rolls.

Such a trap, one circle, almost seven or eight circles, hundreds of people.

What kind of project, writing Spring Festival couplets, and writing blessings.

Zhang Chi hugged his daughter and merged into the crowd again. At this time, instead of dancing, he started to spin along the outermost circle.

These words made Zhang Chi even more confused: "What do you say, what can the two of us set up a stall to sell?"

Melika saw that they were so busy, so she said to the two of them: "Then you are busy, let's go to another place first."

Zhang Chi looked at it for a long time, and there was nothing wrong with the old lady.

Good-looking is pretty good-looking, but it lacks momentum. At most, there are only two or three flowers. It may be interesting to Americans, but it lacks a little atmosphere in Zhang Chi's view.

Fortunately, it didn't take long for Zhang Chi to see a seller of candied haws. As for the stall owner, it wasn't his grandfather Zhang Jiaren and grandma Miao Guifang.

When he turned to the export place, Zhang Chi saw the Chinese project seriously.

However, to put two red lanterns on these items and get a safety buckle or something, it may be the taste of Chinese festivals for foreigners.

This group of old men on the flower boat twisted their fancy, and the surrounding atmosphere followed, and soon there were some lively people who happily jumped into the flower boat team and twisted together.

The original thumping tune was instantly replaced by the rhythm of the small dance here. The cheerful and youthful performance is just a bit of a mix of flavors played by the big drum and gong.

Fortunately, after squeezing through this section, there were no people on the road leading to my home.

Many Americans know how to dance, and their lives are full of various dances since childhood, so it is not an exaggeration to say that these people are good at singing and martial arts.

In short, there are all kinds of snacks, and I don’t know where so many people who make snacks come from.

"hiss!"

Zhang Chi and Melika were walking back with the child in their arms, and at this time, Xiao Huizhi had already fallen asleep on her father's shoulder.

Zhang Chi and Melika naturally followed suit, everyone shouted happily, and soon Zhang Chi forgot about other things, such as helping his parents and seniors to support the scene.

"grandmother!"

It wasn't that he was afraid of sweating, but that Xiao Huizhi was finally woken up by the unreliable old woman. The little guy didn't cry or make noise, and after a while, he howled at the top of his voice.

While talking, the two of them kept working, passing things to the customers standing in front of their stalls, and collecting money at the same time.

During the Chinese New Year, Zhang Chi walked for about a hundred meters with his daughter in his arms, but he didn't see a Chinese food stall, so Zhang Chi didn't know what to say for a while.

When the couple walked to the door of Lao Liu's house, they realized that there were more and more people at the moment. It was quite smooth when they came here, but now they are crowded again. Taking pictures with the Chinese immortals on the side of the road, it looks like a Chinese scenic spot.

Stretching and twisting, these people have a sense of rhythm, and the twisted flower boat originally turned in China has changed its flavor, combining with the nearby small dance.

Zhang Chi didn't know what to say for a while.

Walking around, Zhang Chi’s family’s feet hurt from walking. There are not many activities. Except for dragon dance and flower boat, other things like sledge skiing are not considered Chinese events. There are places where it can snow heavily in winter, and there are snow mazes and the like, which are completely Western projects.

It's quite meaningful, but there's no need for Zhang Chi's family to join in the fun. One is a Chinese, the other is half a China handy, and the other is in his arms. He can't speak, so what can he learn.

"Why are you here too?"

It can't be blamed for the lack of fireworks. The total budget is only so small. If you buy too many fireworks, you don't have to do other things.

Zhang Chi and Melika had no choice but to continue walking with the crowd with their children in their arms.

As soon as this little dance started, the surrounding crowd became even more excited, and more and more people joined in.

Going over, Zhang Chi found that the sugar was boiling in the pot, the grandfather was wrapping the sugar, and the grandma was stringing hawthorns. At the same time, he was waiting for his wife to wrap the sugar, and then handed it over to the front customer after it cooled completely. .

When Zhang Chi saw the price marked on the stall, he couldn't help taking a breath, thinking that his grandparents were serious businessmen.

Melika changed Xiaohui's diaper, while Zhang Chi opened his coat and stood in the limelight to shield his daughter-in-law from the wind.

After bouncing around for about twenty minutes, both Zhang Chi and Melika were sweating a little, and they squeezed out carefully.

Five pieces of candied haws, or five dollars!It's beyond Zhang Chi's imagination.

Melika looked at the queue in front of the stall, smiled and said something to her husband.

Going out of here, going there is the place where the fireworks are set off. Now the fireworks are blooming in the sky one after another.

"Mutton skewers, why can't you sell them?" Li Qin looked at Zhang Chi and his wife and said with a smile.

The outermost circle is a road, a snack road surrounded by food stalls, there are not only Chinese snacks, but also Laomo, which is Mexican snacks, corn rings, burritos, etc. Zhang Chi even saw a Thai snack stall.

After the change, Xiaohui stopped crying and stared curiously at her surroundings.

I have to say that there is something wrong with the organization this time, but Zhang Chi also understands that the organizers probably didn't expect so many tourists to come tonight.

Of course, the tourists here refer to Americans who are doing good things, and Chinese tourists must be counted among them.

In a word, the Chinese New Year celebration in Amber town is very hot, the kind that explodes the table!
And not only did it become popular for a day, but it continued until the Lantern Festival, which is the fifteenth day of the first lunar month for us Chinese.

"These Americans are really idle!"

Zhang Chi waited until almost one o'clock before seeing his grandparents, parents, and mothers rushing back with the sledge, and it was already past the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, and it was the morning of the sixteenth day of the first lunar month.
