Chapter 313 Chaos
San Ya and her friends worked overtime for a whole day and finally made ten sky lanterns.
During the Lantern Festival, when the family was having a reunion dinner, Lin Xiaomi gave two sky lanterns to the old man and asked him to light them himself to see how the sky lanterns took off.
I gave one each to my three brothers-in-law and my parents-in-law.
In this way, seven were taken down, and three were left, so they were taken out and released together with Xiao Ran.
Everyone at home happily accepted it. Xiaomi said that it could be used as a wishing lantern, and they would write their wishes on the lantern at night.
Others also wanted a sky lantern to play with, but there were only two of them, so it was clear that there was no share for them. They could only watch enviously as Xiao Zhen's family took the lanterns and left.
"If you want to enjoy the lanterns, go there earlier in the evening. If you go too late, you might not be able to squeeze in," Sun reminded.
Is this for so many people?
"Don't worry, mother. We will be there at 3 p.m. We have already booked a private room at the restaurant with the best location for viewing the lanterns."
Sun nodded in relief, saying that it would be fine if she didn't squeeze with those people. Her son and daughter-in-law were delicate and precious, what if they got hurt?
The children did not make a fuss to follow, as their parents had reminded them not to cling to their brother and sister-in-law at night. Now that they had sky lanterns in their hands, they preferred to play at home. Nanny also made other lanterns for them, which could also be set off in the pond at home.
"Young Master, are we going to watch the lanterns in the restaurant?" Lin Xiaomi asked him while sitting in the carriage.
She was puzzled as to how to guess the riddles in this way.
"Let's go there to enjoy the lanterns first, and I'll take you to the academy to guess lantern riddles later.
Oh my god, I have to go to the academy to guess a riddle, is it so troublesome?
"There are no lantern riddles in the lantern viewing area?"
"Yes, the questions were too bad and the people were mixed. We wanted to have fun, so we made questions for each other in the academy and guessed the answers."
You guys still know how to play!
The carriage drove slowly towards the restaurant, and along the way many people could be seen walking towards the market.
The shops on both sides of the street are decorated with lights and red lanterns hung high. The street vendors are shouting enthusiastically, and the lively atmosphere makes people happy.
Lin Xiaomi looked at the lively scene outside through the car window. The Lantern Festival was really lively!
They walked into the reserved box, which had an excellent location and overlooked the entire lantern festival.
Looking out the window, people were walking among the lanterns, and children were running and playing with their small lanterns. The darker it got, the more people came to the lantern festival.
At the hour of Xu, the flow of people reached its peak. People from inside and outside the city gathered here to join in the annual excitement. They were shoulder to shoulder, and Lin Xiaomi looked around and saw that it was full of people.
Everyone was trying hard to squeeze in, some holding their children in their hands, some hugging their children. Those who wanted to get out couldn't, and it was also difficult for people outside to squeeze in.
Lin Xiaomi said worriedly, "My Lord, are there too many people?"
Xiao Ran frowned. He also felt that there were too many people today, more than in previous years. "Go, quickly call someone to come and maintain order."
Where are the people who were assigned to maintain order in previous years?
After receiving the order, the servant ran out immediately.
The lanterns were smashed to pieces in the scuffle, and all kinds of items were scattered on the ground, including trampled lanterns, fallen ornaments, and shoes and packages that people lost in panic.
"Stop pushing, stop pushing!" The small vendor shouted desperately when he saw that his stall was in danger.
Suddenly, someone lost his balance in the crowd and stumbled to the ground. This fall seemed to trigger a chain reaction, and the people behind him had no time to stop and stumbled one after another.
Instantly, panic spread among the crowd, and people shouted in panic, cries for help came one after another.
"Help!"
"Stop pushing!" The voice echoed in the air. In the chaos, the cries of children were shrill and piercing.
People pushed and trampled on each other. Some were stepped on and groaned in pain; some struggled to stand up, but were knocked down again by the influx of people.
Some children were separated from their parents in the chaos and cried loudly. Some people fell to the ground, dying from being trampled, covered in blood...
Lin Xiaomi witnessed all this in the box, her face pale, and she grabbed Xiao Ran's hand: "My Lord, quickly send someone to notify the Marquis and the doctor, call the doctor over!"
The person waiting nearby didn't even wait for the master's instructions and ran away. Oh my God, it's over!
The scene was too chaotic, Xiao Ran did not dare to hastily send people to maintain order, so he could only wait for the government officials to arrive...
After an anxious wait, the soldiers finally arrived at the scene. They shouted loudly, trying to calm people down.
However, the panic among the crowd was difficult to calm down, and the chaos continued. Some people were injured and bleeding in the crowd, and the wounds were shocking. Many people fell and lay on the ground groaning in pain...
