Chapter 355: Amidst the Excitement, There Was a Sense of Surprise

As mentioned earlier, Xue Pan led Jia Baoyu and Xue Baochai to the back house and met Aunt Aunt Xue and his wife, Wang.

After the mutual salute, the others also arrived. Wang had been ”peaceful” in the backyard for a long time, but when she saw a young and handsome man like Baoyu, she couldn't help but fall into a delusion again.

Regardless of the presence of his own man, she stared intently at Baoyu and couldn't close her legs.

Xue Pan was immediately annoyed and casually dragged Wang into the room. Soon after, he heard the commotion, with the couple cursing in the middle:Rread latest chapters at novelhall.com

“Stinky woman, today I'm celebrating my birthday, and how dare you look at another man in front of me?”

“Spit! Your ugly face has nothing; why don't you tear it apart and pull it down?”

“You bitch, I will let you know my prowess today!”

“Ouch! You're such a ruthless thief, I... I'll fight with you today!”

Jia Baoyu and Xue Baochai were outside. They just looked at each other and wanted to go in and try to persuade them. But Aunt Xue was an experienced woman who was holding the two of them and comforting them.

“They...”

“Don't worry about them.”

Aunt Xue said, "Those two people are crazy. The more the others try to persuade, the more they can't stop. Let them make a scene by themselves. Wait until..."

At the end of the conversation, Aunt Xue suddenly stopped talking. She got up in a hurry and said, "Baoyu, your Brother Xue can't get away for a while. Why don't you go ahead and make arrangements for him? Don't let anyone say we lack the manner of attending guests!"

Pushing and shoving, Jia Baoyu was rushed outside the door.

Although Baoyu was curious about why his Aunt was so anxious, as a cousin, it was also his duty to entertain friends for Xue Pan. Therefore, he didn’t delve into it and just went to the front hall.

Aunt Xue watched Baoyu go away. She was just relieved when she saw Baochai coming out of the room with a red face and shaking her handkerchief. She said strangely, "Why don’t you give them a few pieces of advice? What does this look like? I... I will return to my room first!"

When Aunt Xue saw her daughter like this, how could she not know that she had been hit by the scene?

While secretly cursing these two enemies, they were indeed the demon kings in her life, she hurriedly called out to the nanny to fetch a new set of clothes in Xue Pan’s yard.

She didn't dare to leave quickly because she was afraid someone would recklessly break into this absurd matter, so she became accustomed to hearing nothing at the door.

When they arrived outside the mansion, they saw about ten servants sweating profusely under the poisonous sun to spread the firecrackers.

Upon seeing it, Xue Pan angrily cursed and said, "Damn it, it’s fine normally. But I'm celebrating my birthday today; how dare you work so slowly? Do you think our family has no family rules?”

As he spoke, blowing his beard and glaring, he was about to punish them with the rules, but the frightened servants knelt on the ground.

“Can’t you just calm down on this great day?”

Sun Shaozong helplessly reached out and pressed him down, urging, "Although the firecrackers on Lao Feng's carriage are not tightly intertwined, how could it be so easy for this old man to spread them out completely?”

Upon hearing the Second Brother speak, Xue Pan restrained his temper and stared at the work on the steps with copper bell-like eyes.

The servants below saw this and quickly got up, working tirelessly to accelerate their progress.

Even so, it took another 30 minutes to fully unfold the firecracker along the southern wall. From east to west, it could be over forty meters long!

Baoyu and Liu Xianglian lit the cap at the top of the incense candle, held it up like a torch, and ran to the east and west, shouting at each other and igniting the lead together.

Boom and rumble!

The 200,000 sound of firecrackers was much more powerful than the earthquake in later generations, and the rumbling motion was continuous as if there were rolling thunder on the ground.

It was just that...

The rising smoke and dust were also extremely strong. At first, Sun Shaozong and others were still watching at the door, but gradually they couldn't stand it and had to retreat to the courtyard.

Seeing the smoke rising and covering most of Zijin Street, even Feng Ziying, the initiator, couldn't help but chuckle. Fortunately, before setting off firecrackers, they had informed the nearby patrol in advance; otherwise, it would be misunderstood as a fire.

When the firecracker was finally released, everyone's ears were buzzing, rubbing their ears and grinning as they walked towards the living room. Suddenly, they saw two women running over as if flying, and from a distance, they opened their mouths and shouted something.

The crowd couldn't hear clearly. They only waited until they got closer and carefully identified each other before finally understanding what they were shouting, "Oh no, those two elephants in the backyard are rampaging like crazy, and even the elephant driver's arm was broken by them!”

“Now that the Madam, Old Lady, and the Lady are all trapped in the house, afraid that they will break in!”

Upon hearing this, everyone turned pale with shock.

"Damn it, how could they still be surprised by the firecrackers after such a long distance? Could it be that those two elephants have thousand-mile eyes and ears?" exclaimed Xue Pan, stamping his feet furiously.

Feng Ziying, feeling embarrassed, turned to face the situation. He then heard the woman shake her head and respond, "It is not the firecrackers that startled them; it is the pussy dog that Madam raised. Who could have thought that such a big guy would be frightened by the dog's barking?"
