At six in the afternoon, Su Chunjun took a look at his watch and went to ask Mayor Feng for leave.

Mayor Feng and a few others were puffing away in the small living room, and were very surprised to hear that the hardworking Mr. Su wanted to leave early.

Cai Wenhua said, “It’s not even dark yet, it’s still early, what’s so important to labor our Mr. Su?”

Mayor Feng also said, “If you want to run errands, just leave it to the people underneath you, don’t work too hard.”

Su Chunjun had to confess that it was because his fiancée, Second Miss Yang, sent him an invitation and called out for him to stand.

“The principal of the school entrusted her to do something, she organized a Japanese hometown festival, the first time to take on such a big responsibility, she is also worried and afraid of sleep. Today the festival began, I want to go over to help her to strengthen her courage.”

Mayor Feng exclaimed, “That’s great, Ms. Yang is a practical person.”

Don’t look at Su Chunjun’s childish talk, where would these people not understand? The principal entrusted the matter, it is impossible to give an incompetent person, regardless of whether Ms. Yang is a man or a woman, how old, as long as the principal dares to give the matter to her to do, it must be stored in the heart of the promotion.

Besides, a Japanese festival is not something that can be accomplished easily.

Cai Wenhua had paid much attention to Su Chunjun’s affairs and said, “I remember there were quite a few Japanese students at that university.”

Mayor Feng laughed and said, “Tang Jiuling is a slippery person, and now that the Japanese are so powerful, he cast his lot there long ago. Those who are only now going to kowtow to the Japanese didn’t kowtow to him as early as he did, otherwise why would the Japanese send their students to his university?”

A fool who was eager to interject and knew just a little bit about it couldn’t wait to do so, “The mayor is right. The Japanese build their own schools, and my son and daughter go to a Japanese high school. If the Japanese don’t go to their own school, but go to a Chinese school instead, it’s a sign that the people in it are not good enough for them.”

No one in the audience cared to comment on this kind of foolishness.

However, this was a rich man who had just been tricked by Mayor Feng, and was waiting for him to send money to Mayor Feng, so for the sake of money, no one said anything unpleasant.

Mayor Feng got up and swept Su Chunjun out the door, “Let’s go, I’ll see you off.”

After the two of them left, Cai Wenhua changed the subject, “The mayor really loves Little Su.”

“Yes, yes.”

“Mayor Feng loves his soldiers like a son.”

Mayor Feng and Su Chunjun stood outside the gates, Mayor Feng said, “It’s good for you to make a trip there, if anyone close to Mr. Yamamoto is also going to the festival, remember to go over and say hello then.”

Su Chunjun nodded and said, “I know what’s important, don’t worry, Mayor. Last time Yanyan told me that she came to the charity banquet to meet Mr. Yamamoto, only to find out that it was the Japanese guy who went to her school last time.”

Mayor Feng was originally just trying to get a shot in the arm, but when he heard that Mr. Yamamoto had indeed been to that university, he immediately changed his mind, “That’s right. Then today maybe Mr. Yamamoto will also go, you wait a little bit, I call someone to bring a gift over, then you see the opportunity to act.”

He shouted to his subordinate to find Mrs. Shao, not long after, Mrs. Shao stacked small steps, holding a red velvet box over, she slightly gasping for breath, smiled and said, “As soon as you said you wanted it, I rushed to find it and send it over.”

Opening it, it was a box of Cuban cigars. Britain built a colony in Cuba and let the Cubans grow tobacco, making cigars that were sold all over the world with the British fleet.

Mayor Feng nodded and said, “The Japanese like British things, take it.” He saw Mrs. Shao, and after a little contemplation, he said, “Xiao Shao, Ms. Yang is having a festival at the school, so why don’t you also go with Xiao Su to have some fun.”

Mrs. Shao made a little daughterly gesture and took Mayor Feng’s arm, “Really? To tell the truth, I’ve been bored out of my mind for a long time. I’ll go change my clothes then.”

Mrs. Shao’s wedding date has already been set, and she will be leaving the house in half a month. In order to prevent any more rumors from spreading, Mayor Feng originally wanted her to temporarily live outside first. But Mrs. Shao was afraid of being left behind by Mayor Feng, and insisted on getting married in her “righteous brother’s” house. Even so, Mrs. Shao is not as free as she used to be, and when she hides in her room upstairs every day, she can only ask her friends to come over to her house to play.

Mayor Feng went back after giving his instructions, and Su Chunjun continued to wait. It wasn’t long before Mrs. Shao changed her clothes and came down, and she brought a friend with her, young master Lv Qifang, who came to play with her today.

Young Master Lv was particularly attentive and understanding, and said to Mr. Su, “Mr. Su, just use me, I’m here to carry Mrs. Shao’s bags today.”

Su Chunjun pulls back the corners of his mouth, revealing a not-so-kind smile, and says to Mrs. Shao, “Mrs. Shao, let’s get in the car, it’s almost time.”

Driver Chen was already waiting.

The three of them got into the car and drove all the way to the university peacefully.

It was already dusk, and it was not yet visible in front of the school gates, but driving into the school, one could find that the students who should have already gone into the cafeteria to eat in the past were actually still outside, and they were all moving in one direction.

Su Chunjun said, “Xiao Chen, stop the car and let’s walk over.”

Driver Chen then parked the car in a secluded area, and the three of them got out of the car and followed the flow of people.

After walking for about a quarter of an hour, the crowd gradually thickened, the lights flashed ahead, and there was even music coming out.

Lv Qifang heard it and laughed: “This is not a big mess.”

Ms. Yang said: How can there be no music at the festival? There must be! What’s loud comes what, suona arrange for me.

Following the fierce drum beat of the Great Trouble in Heaven Palace, they arrived in front of a row of vendors.

At the main entrance was a male student rolling cotton candy. There were two kinds of cotton candy machines, one motorized and one foot-powered. The kind with a motor was definitely out of the question, too expensive and not popular. The one they learned then was the foot-powered one, which was a physical job, and the feet had to step on it with the speed of a wind turbine to make it work.

The male students wore an undershirt, tied a towel around their heads, and shouted at the top of their lungs, “Cotton candy is 10 cents a piece! A dime! Just a dime!”

The marshmallows looked so big and snowy white that they didn’t seem to seem so expensive for a dime.

Many male and female couples come here, the girls stop for a moment, the male students are willing to boldly shell out 10 cents to buy a cotton candy.

Mrs. Shao hadn’t shopped when she was a teenager, and she was even less likely to walk on the street after she became a married woman, so she had never tasted such cheap and good-looking cotton candy.

Her feet lurched and she smiled, “This candy looks really interesting.”

Lu Qifang glanced at her, not knowing what was going on, his heart suddenly moved, he squeezed over and bought a cotton candy, holding it up and holding it out to her, “Try it.”

Mrs. Shao had received as much gold, silver, and jewelry as she had, but her heart didn’t beat as hard as it did when she received this cotton candy.

“How would I eat this.” She smiled to cover up a sentence, took it and glanced at Mr. Su again.

However, how shrewd Mr. Su was, his eyes didn’t even look this way, only saying, “I’ll go look for Yan Yan, you guys wait for me for a while.” Then he left with a big stride, leaving only Mrs. Shao and Lu Qifang.

Mrs. Shao licked the marshmallow and said to Lu Qifang, “Let’s walk in slowly.”

Lu Qifang took out a handkerchief to wipe the sweat on her forehead, “Good. There are fans for sale over there, I’ll go buy two.”

The weather was too hot.

Lu Qifang went to buy two fans, no inscriptions, but no bargaining either. Seeing that it was a young master in a suit, the student who was watching the stall was particularly black-hearted and sold him two inscribed fans without mentioning that there were cheaper white fans. After collecting the money, the fan seller sighed in his heart, business has been done for a long time, people’s hearts are black, ah, he now has no uneasy feeling of conscience at all.

Lv Qifang got the fan and fanned it vigorously, all of a sudden the fan was bent, startled him: “How is this fan so soft!”

Mrs. Shao: “Be gentle, don’t break it, gently fan it.”

Lu Qifang took another look at this seemingly exquisite, but actually not useful fan, gently fan it, there is no wind.

Mrs. Shao smiled happily and pushed him, “There is an ice-cream seller over there, let’s go eat ice-cream.”

The arrangement of the stalls was very skillful, the food stalls were separated by two stalls selling toys. Mrs. Shao’s blanked out teenage years were fulfilled at this festival tonight.

After she finished the cotton candy and Young Master Lu ate up the two popsicles, she came across the windmill spinning stall, the seven-colored windmills spinning with the wind, and one of them was only 10 cents, the big one was 20 cents, and the biggest one was 50 cents.

Young master Lu continued to give generously.

Mrs. Shao then held up a windmill and walked happily forward to see a stall selling sugar gourds.

Young Master Lu bought another sugar gourd.

In front of them was a water pistol stall. The customers used water pistols made of bamboo tubes to hit the straw paper targets hanging in front of them, and the paper targets broke when they were hit, so it looked very simple, and it cost one dollar to play once. But the bamboo tube water gun prepared by the traitorous businessman is not enough range, just not possible to shoot the paper target, bamboo tube water storage is also limited, one person can use five bamboo tubes, but can shoot the paper target of very few.

Those who can play the dollar game are big spenders. In front of the ten cheap stalls, Yang traitors arranged a dollar big money game, really gathered a lot of popularity, many rich male students are very willing to shoot in front of female students in the face of the paper target, but unfortunately things do not work out, we must know that Yang traitors but personally let a person to try out all the bamboo water tube, statistics to measure their shooting distance, and then determine the paper target hanging where.

Can shoot certainly very good luck, not hit is common sense.

She told the students who were watching the stall to wait until the second half of the festival to move the paper targets forward a little bit, by then the money was almost earned and the customers had finished shopping and were going to go back, so when they passed by the stall again, if they saw that there were a lot of people who had hit the targets, they would want to try it again.

Then they could make money again.

The students who watched the stall listened to the black hearted business experience and looked at Yang with a different look in their eyes, and only later did they understand after listening to the other students popularize the Zhu family as a powerful merchant who had once bought half of the city.

It turned out to be a family heirloom, so that’s not surprising.

When Lv Qifang saw this, he was really interested in it, and he eagerly took out a dollar and bought five water pistols, and when he finished shooting, he failed to hit one target, and then he took out another dollar and bought five more, and still failed to hit one target, and then he simply took out ten dollars and bought fifty water pistols.

Watching the stall of the students were frightened, and quickly called for someone to shout Yang traitors.

Yang rushed to the stall, the students grabbed her and asked: “What should we do? This is a big customer! If he doesn’t even hit the target, he’ll smash my stall!”

Yang looked at her for a moment and said, “It’s okay, go to the stall selling soymilk and bring two cups of iced soymilk, put more sugar in it, and say it’s a gift for him.”

The student who was watching the stall immediately ran to the soymilk stall and brought back two cups of iced soymilk. The so-called iced soymilk was soymilk with ice.

Yang adulterer had once suffered from Mai Kee, Grandpa Ken, and Milk Tea Shop, and now he also gave the customers here a taste of it.

It is known that water turning into ice increases its volume. So, there is a considerable difference in the volume of beverage in a glass of drink without ice and a glass of drink filled with ice.

–This is the secret of Coke and milk tea desperately put ice! It’s obvious that 90% of the drink is water, and the merchants want to take advantage of the water! The water won’t even give more! Shady businessmen.

Yang traitors have followed the example of the festival, all the drinks with ice, are relying on this approach to save a lot of money on the cost of raw materials it.

However, when people saw the drinks with square ice cubes, they all thought that it was a high-class product only found in western restaurants.

When Mrs. Shao was given a cup by a student at the stall, she saw that it had ice cubes and tasted sweet, so she said to Lu Qifang, “This Miss Yang is really smart and powerful, look, ice cubes in soymilk, such a high-class way of eating, even if it wasn’t her, she wouldn’t be able to do it.”

After Lu Qifang finished his ten shots, only two of them grazed the edge of the paper target – blown by the wind. It was also a hit, and he also had a cup of iced soybean milk, and feeling not particularly angry, he came back to take Mrs. Shao on his arm and continued to walk forward.

Mrs. Shao is really flavorful compared to the female students here. No one here knew their identities either, and the two looked compatible, like a real couple, a groom and a daughter.

The stalls behind the festival got more and more expensive.

The water pistol is one dollar for five shots, the balloon blowing is one dollar for one shot, and the most expensive is the photo shooting, twenty dollars for one shot.

Yang traitors language: scenic spots how can there be no photo.

There are so many students who have money, and there are quite a few who have German cameras at home. Yang Yuyan moved with emotion and reasoning, asking them to bring their home cameras to take pictures of the guests in the festival, and all the proceeds will go to the charitable foundation!

Of course, film reimbursement.

Those who can take pictures are even more of a minority, after all, this price is really high, Yang adulterer is also holding to come one to slaughter one, do not want to return to the customer’s mindset to book the price.

Just like the scenic treacherous businessman said: he can come twice in his life?

So no matter whether the scenic area to take pictures or open a restaurant, they all know that tourists will not come a second time.

Young Master Lu is not bad, and he and Mrs. Shao have never been photographed together – they don’t have that chance either, that’s something they wouldn’t even think about.

Today, here, they met, and only then did it occur to them that they hadn’t taken a picture together.

And if they missed this time, they would never know if they would have the chance to take a photo together again.

Lv Qifang and Mrs. Shao looked at each other for a long time, and silently went over and paid.

The student in charge of the camera was very excited! It was so hard to get a fat sheep, ah no, it was a guest.

In order to open the door, he enthusiastically said, “You can take two pictures, one standing and one sitting. Come, come, come here.”

There was definitely no view from the photo booth, and it was nighttime. Yang Yuyan then arranged the photo booth next to the best-lit street lamp, the booth next to it was still selling lanterns, and the light was still a little bit shady, but it was sloppy and okay – of course, there was no guarantee of what kind of photo it would come out to be, and it would most likely be a ball of black.

The student who took the picture genuinely loved photography, otherwise he wouldn’t have had a German camera.

He took more than ten pictures of Mrs. Shao and Lu Qifang, and finally said to the two of them, “If it’s convenient, please leave your address, and I’ll have the pictures developed and mailed to you.”

Lu Qifang and Mrs. Shao were not people who could receive photos at their own homes.

Luckily, this student’s family also had money and knew that there were many accidents and inconveniences. Seeing that both of them did not want to leave their addresses, he said, “You can also wait for ten days and come to me to pick up the photos.”

This student left his name, let them remember to come to school to find him.

After taking the picture, it was as if this night’s beautiful dream had reached its peak and it was time to wake up next.

Mrs. Shao looked at her hands full of fan windmill balloons and laughed, “Look at me, I’m going to meet someone in a little while, how am I supposed to meet Second Miss Yang?”

Lu Qifang, smart and perceptive, took over and said, “I’ll throw them away.”

He took all those things he had just bought from her and threw them into the trash can next to him.

“Let’s go.” Lu Qifang stuck her hands in her pockets, “I see Mr. Su, just over there.”

Not far from the lectern, Miss Yang Er was guarding a huge fundraising box, and was squatting down to talk to Mr. Su who was standing next to the lectern, Mr. Su was holding her hand, tilting his face up to look at her single-mindedly.

Meeting the best of him in the best of years.

Mrs. Shao smiled and took Lu Qifang’s hand, “Let’s go over.”
