508 Lantern Festival
A sweet smell came to my nose.
Xie Xiaowei walked over with two bowls, followed by the little fox and the others. Each of them had two bowls in their hands. The smell that came out of the bowl was not only sweet, but also a strong fragrance of osmanthus and a faint smell of wine.
"Eat the dumplings." Xie Xiaowei smiled and handed one of the bowls to Jiang Ning.
"How about we go out to eat later? Let's have some meat dumplings." Jiang Ning suddenly became interested.
If you want to eat this, you don’t have to go far. This is Miaohou Street. In front of the Confucius Temple is Miao Street, and further ahead is Miaoqian Street.
Miaohou Street is only lively on weekends, and Miaoqian Street is different. There are stalls every day, and there are small shops along the road, including many snack bars.
Of course, if you really want to eat good food, he can just say hello to Zhu Shilu. Chef Zhu can make everything, and the ingredients are exquisite, and the taste is absolutely first-class.
However, eating dumplings was a sensation, and the taste was second... Besides, he hadn't been on the street for a long time.
"I don't like meat." The squirrel shook his head... It's a squirrel! The staple food is nuts.
"I'm okay, it's just that this thing is too tiny." The little fox looked annoyed.
Transformation can only change the general appearance, and some details cannot be changed, such as the little fox and the others' mouths are full of sharp teeth, and Sister Miao's eyes are also a bit troublesome. Her pupils are thin, so she used to wear glasses when she was in the company and liked to squint her eyes.
Jiang Ning subconsciously broke up his front teeth... Fortunately, it was not very big.
"Wait a minute, do you want to say hello to the other side? After all, it's Lantern Festival." Sister Miao is not very interested in dumplings. As a cat, her teeth are also sharp as serrated. They are also not suitable for eating such things that stick to teeth. In previous years, she wouldn't touch them... Now for Jiang Ning's sake, at least she has to eat some... She has made up her mind to swallow them directly.
"It must be over." Jiang Ning sighed, without asking at all.
"Aren't you planning to go to a nursing home? The Lantern Festival is the most suitable for warmth-giving activities." Xie Xiaowei laughed.
"Is this necessary?" Jiang Ning never cared about warmth. In his opinion, such things looked glamorous on the outside but actually had no meaning at all. He did it hypocritically, and the people below had to hypocritically cater to it... This was simply a waste of time, feelings, and life.
"You! There is no human touch at all." Xie Xiaowei commented.
"Hohoho, I don't think those old men and women are very humane, they are realistic." Jiang Ning started to go to the nursing home every day, but now he has no interest.
Most of the elderly in nursing homes were born in the 1940s to the 1950s, the so-called generation that grew up under the red flag and was born in the warm embrace of the party. They were brainwashed in childhood and were full of enthusiasm when they were young. Then they were over, with all kinds of reflections, confusion, and chaos. When they figured it out, they were already old.
Because of too much experience and too many ups and downs, all these old people have become extremely realistic.
Their reality is different from that of the wild girl.
The wild girl emphasizes equivalent exchange, and her human relationships are relatively indifferent, a bit like a foreigner. Her reality is a principle.
These old people are just the opposite. Their reality is that they have no principles. If there is good things, take them, don’t take them. If there is good things, don’t take them. If there is good things, don’t touch them. If there is no way, scold them, don’t scold them. If there is no wish, they will curse them. If there is someone falling into the water, they will only watch from the side, and the kind-hearted will call 110.
Therefore, Jiang Ning and the old men and women did not intend to talk about feelings, but only regarded it as the source of faith and wishes. Both sides took their needs and traded fairly.
"I plan to see those dogs." Xie Xiaowei finally told the truth, and her face turned slightly red.
The dog she mentioned is the wild dog that Gou Desheng raised before.
Although Gou Desheng does not have the ability to enlighten, he can see which dog is spiritual?
All other dogs were let go, and dozens of spiritual dogs were kept. Anyway, Jiang Ning had a spiritual pill in his hand... This thing was not valuable, so with Gou Desheng's friendship with him, of course, it was said.
Gou Desheng has dozens of dog spirits under his command.
This was originally trained as a new force. Anyway, the transformation pill is not uncommon for Jiangning. According to Gou Desheng's idea, at most, when their wisdom reaches the level of the little fox and civet, they can take the transformation pill.
This is still the first batch. Gou Desheng is already thinking about the second batch and the third batch.
He still did not give up on the idea of the Tengou Special Attack Team. If the quantity is not good, then improve the quality.
Before, Jiangning had to leave more than a dozen dogs because the nursing home needed security.
Of course, the dogs he sent to have to be able to take advantage of. Those dogs were picked out from dozens of dogs. First of all, they must be beautiful and look like purebred dogs. Secondly, they must be gentle and not too chaotic. Those like Erha must not do anything.

Jiang Ning stared blankly at the children running around dragging the rabbit lamp.
"What's wrong?"
"Is there anything wrong?"
"Is our ancestor who is a rabbit, so we can't play with the rabbit lamp?"
The grandfather of Jiangning next to him and several relatives of the Jiang family of higher generations were all nervous.
"I just thought of something. I don't have to work hard to carve those rabbits. Isn't it enough to have someone make a plastic mold, just turn out a plastic rabbit, and then stuff a piece of wood into it?" Jiang Ning explained extremely depressedly, and it would be better to add: "It also saves wood."
Everyone who heard this was stunned...and then there was a slight depression.
Several juniors even pulled out pendants hanging around their necks.
These rabbit pendants feel ugly no matter how you look at them, and they also have a funny taste, and there is also a hint of embarrassment (because of this, no one wants to hang the pendant outside and stuff them all into their clothes, but it feels very uncomfortable and panic).
"It's okay, the old guy's ears have grown again, and I'll cut them back again." Jiang Ning slapped.
Many people below who didn't get the pendant secretly thanked, thinking that it was so good, but Jiang Ning's grandfather was a little worried: "This is not very good, after all, he is the ancestor."
"Ningning... Why do you call your ancestors..." Jiang Ning's father was stuck. His son could call your ancestors old guys, but he didn't dare.
"In fact, there is no plastic. There is a kind of fluff pendant sold outside, which is said to be made of mink fur. There are many styles, including rabbits." Jiang Qin said weakly.
"I have one." A little girl who was at least ten years old and must still be in elementary school now came over and pulled out a fluffy rabbit from her pocket.
The size of this thing is about the same as the thumb, soft, cute and cute. Anyway, the pendants made by Jiangning cannot be compared with this one.
"Where did you buy it?" Jiang Ning asked casually. He actually didn't care about the answer. If he really wanted to buy this thing, he could go directly to the Cheng family.
"It's everywhere, I bought it at the Sunday market." The little girl replied.
"Sunday's market?" Jiang Ning became more and more depressed.
Everyone around was laughing.
There are markets on Saturdays and Sundays on Miaohou Street... In other words, this thing was bought at your doorstep.
"Can we transform these pendants?" Jiang Qin asked in a low voice: "There is no need to cut off the ears of the ancestors."
The more she talked about it, the more uncomfortable she felt.
The people next to them could no longer hold it in. Several people laughed out loud, then covered their mouths and ran out. After all, they dared not be too rude.
"That's right, this thing is a carrier of faith and vows anyway. Except for the appearance, it must look like a rabbit, it doesn't matter anything else." Jiang Ning suddenly realized, and he spread his hands: "Give me your pendant."
Jiang Qin hesitated for a moment, and finally took off the necklace from his neck.
Everyone looked at Jiangning, and everyone wanted to see how that extremely ugly wooden rabbit was carved.
The next moment, everyone was frightened and saw Jiang Ning take out a very large machete, more than one foot long and wide in the palm, between a watermelon knife and a kitchen knife.
"Ningning, I know you like to be funny, but it's not like this, right?" Jiang Cong couldn't stand it anymore.
"What do you know? The old guy is a thousand-year-old monster with a strong body. You can find an axe to slash it. Even if the axe is rolled, it may not be able to slash it. At the beginning, I chopped down the two ears and then split them into small pieces. Finally, I formed a rough look. I used this knife. In order to refine this knife, I spent three days, and the materials I threw in were worth more than 100,000 yuan." Jiang Ning said in a nagging manner.
Everyone was stunned again.
"So that's how it is." Jiang Cong finally understood why those rabbits were so ugly that they had to use their entire strength to leave marks on this wood when they came with such a machete. The carved things were probably not as good as Ning Ning's craftsmanship!
"Then why don't you make something similar to amulet? Just burn the pattern with a laser, or paste a piece of rabbit sticker on it?" Jiang Cong asked.
"It's not possible to use lasers, you have to do it yourself, but using sticking paper tricks can do it. Why didn't I expect it?... Oh, it would be great if I discussed it with you earlier." Jiang Ning sighed, and then he patted his cousin's shoulder: "Okay, my brain has become more active, and I know how to perfunctory the old guy, otherwise... I will be responsible for contacting the old guy in the future?"
These words made the Jiang family look dark.
What is unfilial descendants? This one is a model in front of you.
