Chapter 220 Visiting the Temple Fair
At the same time, Keqing brought Ganyu to Bailu Shuanghua.
Xianyun circled around Ganyu a few times, pinched her face, and said, "Your face looks much more rosy than before. It's obvious that you've had a good rest these past two days. You should keep it up in the future."
Ganyu smiled a little embarrassedly: "Master, it was Keqing who kept reminding me and made a detailed work schedule for me, so I was able to rest well."
Keqing raised her chin slightly and said with a hint of pride, "Ganyu has always been very capable, but she didn't know how to take care of herself before. Now, with proper planning, her efficiency has not decreased, but has increased."
"Good kids, it's great that you two can take care of each other. Ganyu, you've been a secretary for so long, and you still need someone's help in making plans before you can have a good rest. But you did a good job this time, and you have to keep it up." Xianyun pretended to be angry, but his eyes were full of pity.
Gan Yu nodded obediently and quickly, "Master, you're right. I was too stubborn before, always feeling I had to be on top of everything myself. After this, I understand the importance of making reasonable arrangements and balancing work and rest. I will definitely not worry you or anyone else anymore."
Xianyun patted Ganyu's head and said, "Good boy, that's a good name. When you have some free time in the future, come and relax at Bailu Shuanghua. Okay, let's not waste time here, let's go to the temple fair quickly. It's bustling now."
After hearing Xianyun's words, everyone headed towards the temple fair with great enthusiasm. Along the way, there was constant laughter and joy, and the lively atmosphere seemed to have an invisible gravitational pull, pulling everyone to quicken their pace even more strongly.
At the temple fair, colorful lanterns come into view. They are of various shapes, like lively birds or delicate flowers, making the entire temple fair look like a dream.
Crowds of people bustled through the sea of lanterns, their shouts, laughter, and children's playful noises intertwined, each melding with the rich atmosphere of fireworks.
After entering the temple fair, the group dispersed. Shuili pulled Xinyang and Linghua towards the area selling special gadgets, while Ganyu and Keqing followed slowly behind the three of them.
Shuili was like a curious baby, with sparkling eyes. She kept looking around and exclaiming from time to time.
"Wow, look at that, it's a sugar man! I've only heard of it in Mondstadt, this is the first time I've seen it." Shuili said excitedly, pulling Xinyang and Linghua beside her.
Xinyang looked in the direction Shuili pointed, and saw a lot of people gathered in front of the sugar figurine stall. Each sugar figurine exuded a unique sweet glow under the light, and the shapes were also strange and vivid.
Linghua touched Shuili's head and said with a smile, "Come on, sister-in-law will take you to pick one. It's a rare opportunity to come to this temple fair, so you must experience it well." After that, she pulled Shuili towards the sugar figurine stall, and Ganyu and Keqing also followed.
When Shuili came to the stall, her eyes widened. The stall owner greeted her warmly: "Little girl, which one do you like? These candy figures are all made by us with great care. They are both beautiful and delicious."
Shuili hesitated for a long time, pointing at this and that, not knowing which one to choose.
Ganyu and Keqing couldn't help laughing when they saw her conflicted yet cute look.
Xinyang picked out a pair of mandarin duck-shaped sugar figurines, took one for himself and handed one to Linghua. He then looked at Shuili and said with a smile, "Xiaoli, you've almost pointed out every sugar figurine. We've already arranged them. If you hesitate any longer, you won't be able to finish visiting this temple fair."
Shuili stuck out her tongue at Xinyang, looked at him carefully again, and finally turned her gaze to Linghua, "Sister-in-law, I want that little squirrel-shaped sugar figurine. Look how cute it is."
Linghua smiled and nodded, then turned to let Xinyang pay. Then she took the candy man from the stall owner and handed it to Shuili. Shuili happily held it in her hands, looking left and right, her face full of joy. "It's so cute, I can't bear to eat it."
"Don't admire it, Xiaoli. This sugar figure won't taste good if you keep it for too long. Besides, we still have a lot of fun things to visit. It's inconvenient to hold it in your hand all the time." Xinyang reminded.
Shuili rolled her eyes at Xinyang and said coquettishly, "Brother Xinyang, you only care about eating. I want to hold such a cute little squirrel candy figure for a while longer. It's rare to find something I like so much." As she spoke, she hugged him tighter in her arms.
Xin Yang smiled helplessly and said, "Okay, okay, Xiao Li, if you like it, just hold it for a while longer."
Shuili nodded in satisfaction, and carefully held the candy figure, looking left and right. After a while, she couldn't help but take a small bite. The sweet taste spread in her mouth, and Shuili's eyes lit up. "So sweet, so delicious."
A few people were eating as they walked forward. Soon, a stall selling handicrafts attracted their attention.
Xinyang picked up a bracelet from the stall and looked at Linghua. "Look, isn't this the one we saw at the temple fair last time?"
Linghua took it and examined it carefully, nodding slightly. "Yes, that's it. The last one was bought by someone else. I didn't expect to see it here again."
The stall owner, overhearing Xinyang and Linghua's conversation, instantly became a profiteer. With a broad smile on his face, he came over and introduced the bracelet, "Gentlemen, you have good taste. This bracelet is truly exceptional. The beads are made of premium material, just by touching them. I carefully selected them, and with great difficulty sourced them from far away. Furthermore, I meticulously designed the bracelet, incorporating several traditional techniques. You won't find such unique craftsmanship anywhere else."
As he spoke, the stall owner picked up the bracelet and pointed at a few beads on it, continuing, "Look at these. They have naturally formed patterns on them, just like they were painted on. They symbolize good luck and fortune. Wearing them on your wrist will definitely bring you good fortune. If you really want them, I can sell them to you at a low price. One string is only 50,000 Mora."
When Shuili heard the stall owner's offer of 50,000 Mora, she immediately curled her lips and said, "Hmph, Boss, no matter how special your bracelet is, it's not worth that price. And it doesn't look as precious as you say. It's not even as good as the bracelet my brother and sister-in-law are wearing right now. My brother made it himself, and it's full of love and care. It's much better than what you just say."
Xinyang and Linghua rolled up their sleeves simultaneously, revealing their bracelets. "I was originally thinking of buying another one to make up for my regrets. We're not unskilled. The patterns on your beads are clearly from mining. You're making a bracelet out of scraps and yet you're charging exorbitant prices? Boss, aren't you afraid of retribution for doing this?"
The stall owner's face turned red and white at this, but he still said stubbornly: "Oh, sir, you can't say that. Although this is just a scrap, it is also a rare and good scrap. The craftsmanship of this bracelet also took a lot of thought. But since you think the price is not suitable, we can still discuss it. If you think the price is suitable, we can discuss it again."
Linghua frowned and replied unhappily: "Boss, you are just making excuses. Even if it is just scraps, it is not worth such an outrageous price of 50,000 Mora. Since you are so unreasonable, we will not waste our time with you. Let's go." Linghua took Xinyang and Shuili's hands and was about to leave.
The stall owner was unhappy again, "No, you're not buying anything, yet you're still nitpicking and wasting my business. How can you be so mean? You touch things but don't buy them. You just look at me as a small business and want to make fun of me."
Xin Yang got a little mad when he heard this. He turned around and said, "Boss, you're confusing right and wrong. You were the one who first asked for 50,000 Mora. We negotiated the price with you and pointed out the actual condition of your bracelet, but you refused to admit it. Now you're blaming us. How can this be justified? We have no choice but to buy it."
The quarrel also attracted the attention of Ganyu and Keqing, and they hurried over.
The stall owner didn't recognize Ganyu and Keqing, thinking they were just passersby trying to help out. He stiffened his neck and said, "Hey, two more! Is there any law and order in Liyue? My bracelet is obviously a good item. It's fine if they think it's too expensive and don't want to buy it, but you're still making trouble and affecting my business."
