In short, there is a lot of silver earned on this day, and there is almost no loss, Li Zhou got off the carriage and stared at the Shangyuan Festival in Chang'an, beautiful and lively, radiant and fascinating, this is not the kind of neon flashing colorful, nor is it the light of the roadside street lamps that have been brightly lit, let alone the car lights that make people feel dazzling, but the soft and evoke the excitement and happiness of the heart.

Lively, is different from the modern lively, the excitement here is constantly carnival, there is no such caution, there is no fear of being targeted, Li Zhou held his wife's hand, warm palms, passing their temperature, warming themselves, but also warming others, Zhao Wanshuang little woman looked like leaning on Li Zhou's side, very happy.

In previous years, I came out to visit the lanterns, I came out with the maid, I was curious but a little shy, this year I came with my husband, and I felt different, no longer that kind of envy, that there is no kind of envy that only envy the mandarin duck and not the sensibility of the fairy, the yearning for love, longing, today she doesn't need it, because she has something to rely on.

The smile on Cao Wanrong's face has been hanging on it, from the moment she went out, she was in this state in her heart, she was not shy to grab Li Zhou's arm, leaned on him affectionately, and found a support, she was no longer alone, and she didn't need to watch the excitement outside alone at home, she wanted to go out for a walk, but she didn't dare, and she couldn't.

The discomfort of the past, the yearning of the past, today, have also come true, the women stood beside Li Zhou, constantly looking at those beautiful lanterns, with lantern riddles written on them, Ximen Bei's curious gaze, constantly scanning the lanterns around him, the personnel, and Li Zhou's face, the light shone on his face, the soft light kept flickering, the eagle eyebrows smiled, no matter how you look at it, I feel excited.

"Is it the Upper Yuan Festival? It's really lively. ”

The first time Ximen North watched the lantern festival, and it was also the first time to participate in such a lively festival, standing beside Li Zhou, the mood was unconsciously much better, and the cold in his heart was gradually melted, Li Zhou felt the lively atmosphere around him, holding his wife's hand, relatives were together, this day was a reunion festival, he was no longer in previous years, alone.

"Shangyuan Festival, a very beautiful festival."

Li Zhou held the arms of the two women and walked in, blended into the endless stream of crowds, and became one of them, Ke'er was still worried and nervous, lowered her head, without that interest, and when the words of Mrs. sounded in her mind, she couldn't help but be shy, her fingers were crossed together, and she stirred her sleeves together, one or two times, until she couldn't continue, she let go, and continued to wrap around, repeating all the time.

Li Zhou's eyes paid attention to those lanterns, the beautiful festival with a certain atmosphere, the simple smiles on the faces of passers-by, and the constant sounds of sighs, discussions, and soft groans in his ears, and walked in front of some lanterns, there were always a bunch of people gathered together, glanced at the riddle on the lanterns, calculated a point in his mind, seemed to have come up with the answer, and quietly left.

People who can't think of it are entangled in place, it seems that they have fallen in love with the lantern, they have been groaning for a long time, and they have come up with a mystery that they don't know if it is correct.

Cao Wanrong approached a lantern stall and stared at a lantern, a small and delicate lantern, the weak candlelight flickered continuously, and the lantern was painted with a mandarin duck pattern, and the pattern was a lantern riddle.

"Twenty-eight beauties."

I saw that it was written "Twenty-Eight Beauty", a very simple riddle, Cao Wanrong looked at it for a long time, her little finger kept pointing at her head, sometimes brushing her hair, her brows were tightly locked, I don't know what the mystery was, Zhao Wanshuang next to her leaned over and took a look, her head was locked, and her little finger kept pointing and pointing, but she still couldn't think of an answer.

The boss waited for them to speak, it was best not to tell the answer to the riddle, but after waiting for a long time, they didn't say an answer, even if it was just a random one, waiting a little anxiously, and forced a smile: "These young ladies and sons, I don't know if they know the answer to the riddle?" ”

Very euphemistic, I didn't say that I would let you take the silver directly, Li Zhou went up and nagged in the boss's ear, and the boss didn't say much, he directly took down the lantern and handed it to Li Zhou, waved him away, Li Zhou turned around and waved his hand away, carrying the lantern, walking proudly in front, and several women behind him followed, Cao Wanrong couldn't help it, and pulled Li Zhou's sleeve: "Husband, what is the mystery?" ”

"Hee-hee, is it a mystery? It's simple, aren't you smart? Why can't you guess? I always feel that a few of you are weird today, is there something hidden from me? Li Zhou's casual words frightened the silent Ke'er, and he hurriedly spoke: "No, no." ”

Li turned around, strode closer to Ke'er, eye to eye, mouth to mouth, and said with a wicked smile: "Really? Ke'er, you are the strangest today, you don't say a word after you come out, you don't talk to the young master, you don't care, and you put on a preoccupied look, do you have something to hide from me? ”

Bringing up this issue again, Ke'er became even more shy, nervously rubbing her fingers, rolling up her sleeves, unable to hide her inner shyness, her eyes read Zhao Wanshuang and Cao Wanrong from time to time, pleading, the two girls turned their heads directly, focused on the lantern, ignoring Ke'er's gaze for help, Ke'er was stunned, how could Mrs. cross the river and tear down the bridge? Don't you know how to help at this time? How can I deal with the young master alone.

I want to cry, but it's hard to get Ke'er, pretending not to see anything, passing directly through Li Zhou, approaching the two women, the two women suddenly retracted their gaze and looked at other places, just don't talk to Ke'er, a few strange people, out of tune movements, Li Zhou is even more suspicious, they are nervous today, what is there to hide from him?

"Is there something you're hiding from me?"

Asked about this answer again, Ke'er ignored the past, pointed to the lantern and asked suspiciously: "Young master, what is this mystery?" Why can't I guess? ”

Forehead? Don't you say it?

Helpless, Li Zhou had no choice but to pick up the lantern and said lightly: "It's not very difficult, Erba refers to the youth, and the beauty refers to the woman, and when combined, it is a wonderful word." ”

Twenty-eight beauties - wonderful.

Zhao Wanshuang then understood, looking at it like this, it was really so, Cao Wanrong nodded, it was true, Li Zhou took Wanrong's hand, put the lantern in her hand, and walked forward with a step, Wanrong looked at the lantern in her palm, the small lantern, and her heart was indeed very satisfied with a sense of happiness, this feeling has not been enjoyed for a long time, it is good.

"Husband, wait for me." ”

Carrying the lantern, Li Zhou had already walked away, she quickly raised her steps and chased after her, the lantern swayed, closed the lanterns of other people, swaying and swaying, Ke'er gradually slowed down, retreated to the side of the two women, pulled the sleeves of the two with both hands, her eyes kept blinking, the two girls laughed, leaned into Ke'er's ear and said carefully: "Ke'er, you have to persevere, you can't be exposed, you know?" ”

"Me?" Ke'er wanted to refute, but the two girls were very smart and pulled Li Zhou's arm forward, leaving the lonely Ke'er, and Ximen Bei, Qing'er, who was confused behind him, what the hell are these three people doing? Why is it so mysterious?

"It's weird."
