Xiaoer smiled and said, "It's a children's festival, and this is a festival that Mayor Wang thought up."

Children's festival, maybe like Children's Day?

"Then it's a unique festival in Luodao Town, so how do the children here celebrate it?" Qing Yin asked curiously.

Xiao Er didn't answer directly, but shook his head and said, "You can see it tomorrow."

Children's Day?

Liu Xining didn't even know which Cai it was, but Qing Yin didn't say anything.

She took Liu Xining upstairs, found the room of the protagonist Gongshou, knocked on the door and entered, and carefully placed a soundproof sign on the door, and then sat with the protagonist Gongshou.

Qing Yin told the protagonist Gong Shou about the Children's Picking Festival, and the protagonist Shou obviously didn't have a good impression of Mayor Wang, he frowned and said, "Mayor Wang is not a good person, he would create a festival for children? I don't believe it. "

Liu Xining actually felt that what the protagonist Shou said was very reasonable, but what is this Mayor Wang doing for this festival?

Maybe tomorrow will have the answer.

--------------------------

What Xiaoer said was right, early in the morning, several people were woken up by crackling fireworks and firecrackers.

Liu Xining opened the window and watched the drums and gongs beating outside. People in bright red sprinkled colored paper and flower petals into the sky, like the bride getting married on TV.

"Why is this Children's Picking Festival so weird?"

Liu Xining said to himself.

She walked downstairs, apparently Qing Yin and her senior brother had finished washing and were having breakfast downstairs.

Liu Xining didn't need to eat human food, but he still took small bites to avoid the suspicion of those present.

Qing Yin secretly handed her a spirit stone, Liu Xining quietly took it from the floor of the table, smiling into Qing Yin's eyes like crescent moons.

Downstairs there were other people who had breakfast, and chatting while eating was naturally indispensable. The topic everyone was talking about today was clearly inseparable from the lively Children's Picking Festival.

"Which family did you choose?"

"I don't know, but I heard that there is a cloth seller in the east."

"Is his family a kid?"

"Yeah, it's really enviable, his kid is only eight years old..."

Liu Xining felt very strange, choosing a child?

Pick one of the best kids for the event?

Listening to the tone of these people, it seems that if a child in the family is selected, it is very enviable.

Liu Xining's curiosity arose immediately.

What was chosen to do? To make adults envious?

What Liu Xining didn't expect was that Qing Yin coincided with her thoughts, but Qing Yin was more straightforward than her, and asked the person who spoke directly: "Excuse me for chatting, we are coming from other places, passing through here, just happened to meet Cai. Children's Day, I am curious, what do you choose your children to do?"

The two of them didn't expect to be overheard, but they didn't get angry, and explained: "This Children's Picking Festival was created by Mayor Wang, and the talented children will be selected and brought up by the mayor's house. Mayor Wang It will pay for all the expenses of the children, and let them study and get fame."

Qing Yin smiled slightly: "Is there such a thing? Then this Mayor Wang is really the biggest good man in the world."

The man said again: "Actually, good people will not send their children to participate in the Children's Picking Festival, but poor people are different. Mayor Wang is actually thinking about these poor families. It costs more to raise a child, but it's not the same. You must be able to raise a good child. If you are a pork seller, why don’t you sell pork with you when your son grows up? But if you send it to Mayor Wang’s house, you will have a chance to gain fame and become a high-ranking official.”

Qing Yin laughed again: "Mayor Wang is really considerate of others, so he doesn't ask for anything in return?"

The man said strangely: "Ten years and 20 years, the children have made great progress, who will forget him? Unless it is a wolf-hearted generation."

Qing Yin said nothing.

The protagonist stepped forward and asked curiously: "Then, can those children who were brought up in Mayor Wang's house see their parents?"

That man obviously likes to talk, especially when he saw these good-looking young people humbly asking for advice, he couldn't help bursting with confidence, and he shook his head: "Of course there must be rules there, I listen It is said that Mayor Wang set up a Blue Moon Cottage, and the children read in it without hearing anything outside the window. Thinking about this one."

What absurdity!

Liu Xining was greatly surprised.Why is this kind of story full of loopholes everywhere accepted by the majority of the townspeople? The children said that they entered the Blue Moon Cottage, but they really did? Parents don’t understand the learning environment, so they easily put their own Is the child sent in?

Liu Xining couldn't help thinking that when he was applying for college, his parents searched for information and asked people everywhere in order to choose a good school, for fear of harming himself.

Why can these people trust this Mayor Wang so much?

Where are children going, do they really understand?

Chapter 37

Seemingly aware of Liu Xining's emotional fluctuations, Qing Yin patted Liu Xining's head lightly.

Liu Xining took the opportunity to rub against Qing Yin's arms, which can be said to be very shameless.

The few people stopped entangled with this issue. Since they were curious about what kind of situation the children were in, the best way to do it was to check it out for themselves.

After several people went back to the room to count things up, the protagonist Gong took out some vestments.

This is actually a very low-level cassock. Wearing it can hide your body and make you invisible, but your breath will not change. It is still possible to fool ordinary people without cultivation.

Several people put on it, and even when they disappeared, Liu Xining felt like he had an invisibility cloak.

They followed the flow of people on the Children's Picking Festival, and sure enough, the sedan chair of the last selected child stopped at the gate of Mayor Wang's house.

Mayor Wang's house was decorated with lanterns and festoons, those who didn't know thought Mayor Wang got married today.

Mayor Wang was standing at the door. He was fat, like a Maitreya Buddha, and he was dressed in a black robe that seemed to be wrapped around his body, which had an indescribable comic effect.

Liu Xining laughed when he saw it, he didn't know what he ate when he looked like this.

Wang Zhenchang still wore a huge emerald ring finger on his thumb and jade beads on his wrist. When he saw the sedan chair approaching, he showed a satisfied smile. When he smiled, his chin had several layers. Liu Xining felt that this man was greasy and disgusting. .

Mayor Wang carried the child from the sedan chair—it was a boy, about seven or eight years old, with big watery eyes and a small round face, and he looked tiger-headed and tiger-headed, very cute.

This is probably the little boy from the cloth seller that I heard about before.

Mayor Wang probably also felt that the child was born well, so he stretched out his thumb to caress the child's cheek. His big thumb pressed against the child's face, and the child felt uncomfortable, and his face immediately wrinkled. He was well-behaved, didn't cry or make trouble, and let Mayor Wang hold him, but there was still a bit of anxiety in his big black and white eyes, and he held him tightly with his little hands.

But no one cares about that.

What they cared about was that the child might be successful in the future if he went to study at Mayor Wang's house.

Some people in the crowd were praising Mayor Wang's character, but Mayor Wang just waved his hands vainly, saying that he just wanted to benefit the townspeople.

Liu Xining was filled with righteous indignation, and she didn't know why she was so angry. Although she still didn't know what this mayor Wang had done, he was definitely not a good person.

I don't know why, when Baozi, who had been quiet all this time, saw Mayor Wang, he barked wildly at Mayor Wang as if he had been possessed by some evil.
