As soon as he arrived at the entrance of Xujia Village, Xu Xiangwan saw Xiao Jiu who was looking in front of the old mansion at a glance. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

Seeing Xu Xiangwan and Wuwu returning, Xiao Jiu was so happy that he danced with his hands, ran over quickly, raised his head and said with a smile: "Brother Wuwu, Sister Wan'er, you two are back." My stomach was almost hungry, and my mother fried the vegetables and didn't let me taste a bite. ”

Xu Xiangwan pinched Xiao Jiu's round cheeks before and after the New Year, and said with a smile: "You snacker, you haven't stopped talking all day long, can you still make your stomach hungry? ”

Xiao Jiu pursed his lips and said righteously: "Sister, I am only five years old this year, and it is the time to grow my body, how can I be fat and round balls?"

The sister and brother walked all the way and laughed all the way, and Wuwu watched from the side, silently revealing a touch of loss in their eyes.

Back at home, Zhang and Xu Qiuyi hurriedly brought the meal to the table and beckoned the family to eat.

Xu Xiangwan explained to his family at the dinner table the harvest of today's vegetable sales, and everyone's appetite was much better.

The Zhang family was still a little worried that even if Wulang was admitted to Tingtao Academy, he would not be able to provide for him, but now he sees that his life is getting better and better, but it is just a few acres of pea tips, and it was sold for dozens of taels of silver. Today's daily expenses are enough for her and Xu Qiuyi's embroidery, and the income in the field is completely pure, which makes most of her previous worries go away at once.

The next day was the Lantern Festival, and Xu Xiangwan got up early in the morning and went to the fields to walk. The main reason is that the shopkeeper Feng wants a lot of pea tips, and Xu Xiangwan also wants to take advantage of the lack of green and yellow in the past few days, pick more and sell them, and sell them for a lot of money. If after a while, when the weather warms up, other people's vegetables will grow, and her pea tips will not be so popular at that time.

Fortunately, when the weather warmed up, the snow that had melted before soaked the soil, and the pea tips grew even better than before the Chinese New Year. After only one day, the bean seedlings that had just been pinched once the day before yesterday sprouted a lot of new green, fat and tender, which was extremely gratifying.

"Mother, how about we go to Guojia Town tonight to see the lantern festival?" Xu Xiangwan proposed to Zhang after inspecting the fields for a while.

Zhang glanced at Xiao Jiu and Xu Xiangwan, who were looking at him with glowing eyes, swallowed the words of rejection that had reached his lips, and changed his words: "Your brother has to stay at home to review his homework, and I'm afraid it's not safe for my mother to walk at night." ”

"What are you afraid of, isn't there such a master as Senior Brother Wuwu? The lantern festival in Guojia Town is not as lively as Ganquan County, so you don't have to worry about us getting lost. In addition, my brother is going to be admitted to Tingtao Academy, and I am afraid that I will not have the opportunity to play with us again in the future, so I will call my brother to join me, but it will be delayed for half a day, so it doesn't matter. Mother, let's go, Xiao Jiu is so big, I haven't seen what the lamp will look like!" Xu Xiangwan pulled Zhang's arm and coquettishly.

Zhang glanced at Wuwu and asked, "Would you like to go to Guojia Town to have a look?"

Worry-free was sitting on a chair while closing his eyes and basking in the sun, when he heard Zhang's sudden question about himself, he quickly opened his eyes.

glanced at Xu Xiangwan, who was winking at him, hooked the corners of his lips without worry, and said with a smile: "The lantern festival in Guojia Town is not as lively as Ganquan County, I'm afraid it's not interesting." ”

Xu Xiangwan thought that worry-free was refusal, and immediately sighed in disappointment, glared at him resentfully, and planned to find another reason for Zhang to agree to her request.

"If you want to go to Guojia Town, it is better to go to Ganquan County, with me, none of you should be able to lose it. Worry-free glanced at the dejected Xu Xiangwan, and then said.

Can you finish the words at once? Xu Xiangwan glanced at him with a blank look.

Worry-free raised his eyebrows and signaled, or wouldn't he go?

Xu Xiangwan quickly lowered his eyes with interest, not daring to be any more dissatisfied.

Zhang Shi listened to the worry-free words, frowned and said: "But Ganquan County is too far away from Xujia Village, there is no carriage at home, and there are many people who go to see the lantern festival today, I am afraid that I can't even rent a carriage, and it will be too inconvenient when I come back." ”

For worry-free, it doesn't matter if you watch the lantern festival or not, or where you watch the lantern festival, the reason why he went to Ganquan County to watch the lantern festival is just to tease Xu Xiangwan.

After listening to Zhang's words, Wuwu immediately replied with kindness: "Since this is the case, then let's go to Guojia Town." It just so happens that I haven't seen the lantern festival in Guojiazhen yet, so I'm going to see it. ”

Xu Xiangwan showed a satisfied smile at this time, and looked at it with bright eyes.

The fifteenth day of the first month of the Great Zhou Dynasty is the Lantern Festival, and on this day, the whole court has the custom of making Lantern Festival.

On that day, every family will gather together, the northerners sit together to eat the Lantern Festival, the southerners eat tangyuan, and everyone will gather together to watch the lantern festival and guess the lantern riddles in the evening. There is also the custom of fire dragon dance in Yizhou Mansion, which generally does not end until the third watch, which is very lively.

Just as Xu Xiangwan's family was discussing the matter of watching the lantern festival, the closed courtyard door suddenly rang rhythmically, not like the knock of the person in the room.

Xiao Jiu was the first to stand up, and said with shining eyes: "I guess it's Brother Qianyu who is here! Sister, guess who it is?"

Xu Xiangwan knocked Xiao Jiu's head with a smile: "What is there to guess about this, open it and take a look." ”

Since entering the lunar month last year, although Shen Qianyu always asks the shopkeeper Shen to bring a festival gift during the New Year's holidays, he has never appeared again, which makes Xiao Jiunian talk many times.

Maybe because Shen Qianyu is also a child, and he is playful, he can always play with Xiao Jiu, so he is also very concerned about Xiao Jiu.

In the past month or so, Xiao Jiu doesn't know how many times he has been talking about Shen Qianyu, and he doesn't know if he has sneezed at home.

"Then I'll open the door. Xiao Jiu smiled, and rushed to the door excitedly with his little short legs.

As soon as the door opened, Xiao Jiu cheered: "Brother Qianyu, I can be regarded as looking forward to you!"

Hearing the sound, Zhang and the others also hurriedly turned around and looked at the door.

"If it's really Qianyu, hurry in and sit. Have you had lunch?" Zhang greeted Shen Qianyu warmly.

The Zhang family has always liked Shen Qianyu very much, and he is very worried about not seeing him for a long time.

Shen Qianyu first greeted the Zhang family and the others, and finally looked at Wu Wu, and asked suspiciously: "Who is this?"

Worry-free glanced at Xu Xiangwan, without any intention of speaking, and a dark light of unknown meaning flashed in his eyes.

Xu Xiangwan had to introduce the two of them separately, and then introduced the person into the living room.

Shen Qianyu was also a frequent visitor to Xu Xiangwan's house before, and when she arrived at Xu Xiangwan's house, she was like going back to her own home, she was not polite at all, and even helped Zhang's chair to do things.

After everyone sat down, Shen Qianyu took the initiative to say: "Tomorrow we are going to Guojia Town to save relatives, I thought that I hadn't seen you for a long time, so I just came over in advance to have a look." I heard that there is a lantern riddle conference in Ganquan County tonight, are you interested in going and seeing?" )
