Chapter 310 White beard, red hat, with a leopard head hidden inside

Ding ding bell, Ding ding bell...

Snowflakes fell one after another, and the snowflakes danced in the air, either flying, hovering, or falling straight and quickly, spreading to the ground.

The whole Dunsford became a vast white world, with few pedestrians on the road, and the sudden Christmas music broke the tranquility here, and the sound of horse hooves "stepped" from far to near.

A Christmas carriage decorated with two horses decorated with elk antlers appeared on the streets of Dunsford, with three Santas in red costumes.

In the UK, horses are Christmas mascots and symbols to xing animals. During Christmas, horses wearing Christmas hats can be seen on many occasions, Santa's reindeer has also become horses, carriages at many tourist attractions, and horses pulling carts are worn on "antrians" to pretend to be "reindeer".

Every Christmas, children from all over the world take out their socks the night before and hang them on the fireplace and Christmas trees. Because they believe that when they fall asleep, Santa Claus comes from the northern snow country on a sled of nine reindeer pulls, secretly stuffing gifts into their socks...

The three Santa Claus sitting in the carriage were undoubtedly Arthur, Eddie, and Edmund, siblings, extremely familiar. The sound of music that resounded through the sky completely broke the tranquility of Dunsford. Many residents of the residential buildings on the street stood in front of the window and looked at the Christmas carriage parked on the street and filled with gifts, and their faces were full of curiosity, doubt and astonishment.

"Haha, kids, Santa Claus is here to give you gifts!"

The music paused, and a Santa Claus laughed and shouted with a hearty smile.

"Bang!"

As Santa's voice fell, a door was opened, and a five or six-year-old boy ran out of his house in sweater and slippers, shouting with excitement: "Grand, you fool, I said there must be Santa's..."

"Cole, come back to me..."

Behind the kid who was rushing towards the carriage in snow was a pair of anxious and furious parents who were chasing out in their home clothes. To be honest, they were really wary of strangers who suddenly appeared in Dunsford. Seeing their naughty kids getting closer and closer to the carriage, the parents were even more nervous.

Speaking of Santa Claus, it can be traced back many centuries. His prototype was a kind-hearted master named "St. Nicholas". This master who lived in the 4th century was well-known for his care for his children and was kind and kind. It is said that when his parents passed away, he distributed all his property to the poor in his hometown.

At that time, there was a kind-hearted nobleman. His wife passed away due to illness and left him and his three daughters. The nobleman exhausted his money because of his attempt to invent. They had to move to a farmhouse to live, and his daughters had to cook, sew and clean himself.

A few years passed, and the daughters reached the age of getting married, but the father became even more depressed because he had no money to buy a dowry for his daughter. One night, after washing clothes, the daughters hung the Changtong Wa in front of the fireplace to dry.

After St. Nicholas learned about their father's situation, he came to their house that night. He saw from the window that the whole family was asleep, and at the same time he noticed the girls' Changtong Wa. Then, he took out three small bags of gold from his pocket and threw them one by one from the chimney, and fell into the girls' Changtong Wa.

The next morning, the daughters woke up and found that their Changtong Wa was filled with gold, enough for them to buy dowry. This nobleman could see his daughters get married with his own eyes and live a happy life from then on.

From then on, hanging socks on the fireplace under the chimney and putting gifts into the socks became a tradition, and it was passed down. St. Nicholas also became the prototype of Santa Claus, which was later praised, and drilling into the chimney became the way Santa Claus gave gifts in the story.

In addition, according to the Bible, the Three Doctors from the East gave gifts and worshipped Jesus when Jesus was born, expressing their honor to the human Savior. This is also one of the origins of the custom of Santa Claus giving gifts to children.

However, only children believe that there are mysterious Santa Claus in this world. Adults all know that the so-called Santa Claus who drills the chimney has always been their father.

Looking at the child running to the carriage and the parents chasing behind the child, Arthur, with a snow-white beard, took out a beautifully wrapped gift from the carriage and handed it to the child with ecstasy and raised his hands, and laughed with an old false voice: "Hello, Cole, Merry Christmas, this is a gift for you!"

"Ah! Grandpa Santa, do you know my name? Oh my God, this is really cool. My stupid brother told me that there is no Santa in this world, so are you really Santa?"

"Haha..." Arthur pretended to stroke his white beard and laughed happily, "Of course, child, of course I am Santa Claus."

"But..." Cole's naughty child held the gift and looked at Santa Claus dressed in Eddie and Edmund with confusion. He looked up at Arthur and questioned: "Are they also Santa Claus? Isn't there only one Santa Claus?"

"Haha..." Arthur laughed again, leaned down, gently caressed the snowflakes on the head of the naughty child, and explained: "Child, I am not the only one in Santa Claus. After all, there are many children like you in the world, and I can't deliver all the gifts alone. So, as many children in this world, there are as many Santa Claus!"

"Then...then, can I be Santa Claus when I grow up?"

"Haha, of course, when you grow up, you will become a very good Santa Claus."

At this time, the child's parents had been standing aside for a long time, but they found that the other three had no malicious intentions, so they did not stop their children's behavior. After hearing the conversation between Arthur and the child, the parents looked at each other and smiled at each other, and felt more at ease with the three Santa Claus in front of them and gave up their guards.

At the same time, many residents saw everything on the street outside in front of their windows. Looking at the children holding gifts, jumping happily and jumping and the couple who were shaking hands with Santa Claus with thanks, everyone dispelled their guard.

"Crack, Crack--"

As the doors were opened, children were like hustle and bustle toward the Christmas carriage, shouting and screaming.

"Gift--"

"Santa, my gift-"

A large group of naughty children were chirping around the carriage for gifts, jumping and jumping happily, and each child who received the gift had a happy and bright smile on his face.

Adults also stood in front of their door, looking at the warm and harmonious scene with a smile. Many people picked up their phones and started taking photos and recording videos.

Soon, the gifts were distributed for a few minutes. After receiving the gifts, the children who received the gifts scattered one by one after another, but there were still several older children staying there, hoping to take a photo with Arthur and the other two Christmas carriages.

“Which charity is this?”

"Haha, not a charity, but the Earl Arthur of the Bolin family, his sister and younger brother."

"How did you know?"

"Look, I have seen the badge on the carriage before, and it is the badge of the Bolin family. I have come up to confirm it before and greeted Count Arthur."

"Ah, is that? Then I should go and say hello..."

The naughty children left, and the adults began to gather together in groups of three or three, and went forward to greet Arthur, thank you, shook hands and greetings, and the scene became more enthusiastic, and almost everyone of the adults came forward to take a photo.

"Thank you, thank you everyone. We have to go to other streets and give gifts to other children. The weather is too cold. Come home and don't catch a cold." Arthur had already taken off his beard and said with a gentle smile.

After hearing Arthur say this, the adults greeted each other and went home. However, looking at the phones with their cell phones, Arthur and Eddie and Edmund knew that the next gift delivery would be even more lively.

The same is true. Almost as soon as the Christmas carriage stopped on another street, the surrounding residential doors were opened one after another, and the naughty kids, yelled and rushed over.
