CHAPTER XVII

said that she was going to stay up for the New Year, but after all, Su Yan hadn't survived for many years, and she couldn't sleep well in the past few days, and her body was already tired, so where could she support a sleepless night.

After just sitting for a while, Su Yan felt deeply tired, her eyelids couldn't help but droop downward, and in a moment, the upper and lower eyelids were completely together.

Dou Xian sat opposite Su Yan and looked at her little head little by little, his eyes were full of fun and www.biquge.info smile, he quietly moved his body and sat down next to Su Yan, one hand wrapped around the other side of her body, and gently held her shoulder and gently exerted force on his side.

Seeing that the villain's head was about to be next to his shoulder, Dou Xian couldn't help but hold his breath, his body stiffened and waited for that moment to come, and Su Yan suddenly sat up straight.

Dou Xian's heart turned sharply and he was thinking about how to explain his movements, when he saw Su Yan's eyelashes trembling slightly, his eyes didn't even open, and he looked up with a white little face and muttered vaguely to the seat where he was originally sitting, "I'll just close my eyes and take a nap for a while, just for a while, Zhongkang, don't sleep, don't sleep......"

The glutinous tail voice dissipated in the air, Su Yan was short, her arms folded on the small table in front of her, her head buried between her arms, her eyes closed and her breathing was long, and she fell asleep completely.

The stellar smile in Dou Xian's eyes deepened, and the thick smile spread and connected into a piece that overflowed the entire eye socket.

Shaking off a thin bed of petite people wrapped in emptiness, Dou Xian got up and stood in front of the window.

The twilight gradually rose, the moon was in the middle of the sky, the sky was far away, the cold stars in the sky accompanied by the string moon sprinkled the cold silver glow all over the people's houses, and there was a continuous sound of firecrackers faintly in the distance, and behind him, the person who had made him pursue two lives was sleeping sweetly.

After she left in the previous life, on Chinese New Year's Eve, Chang'an was full of prosperity, and the lights and fireworks illuminated the streets and cities as if it were day, and the cars and horses could hear laughter everywhere.

When he returned from the banquet in the palace, his room was deserted with frost, and he could only desperately recall her smile and angry chatter for comfort, and the liquor in his stomach seemed to burn all his internal organs, but his bones, blood, tendons and veins were cold to the bone.

And so, year after year.

Turning to look at the people on the kang, she didn't know what she dreamed of, muttered and rubbed her head in the crook of her arm, and fell asleep peacefully.

At this moment, Dou Xian only felt that his heart was stuffed, and his entire chest was full of tenderness.

After a night, Su Yan woke up from her sleep, opened her sleepy eyes, and her memory returned, she was secretly annoyed, obviously saying that she wanted to accompany Zhongkang to survive the New Year, why did she fall asleep first.

Su Yan was annoyed, Zhong Kang's enlarged face suddenly appeared in front of him, and he grinned and approached her, "Lady! Happy New Year. ”

His words were filled with a strong pleasure that could not be ignored, and with a strong contagion, Su Yan couldn't help but raise a smile, "Happy New Year, Zhongkang." ”

***

Visiting relatives and friends is constantly lively, and in a blink of an eye it is the fifteenth Shangyuan Festival of the first lunar month, and early in the morning, Xia Hua came to Su Yan, "Sister Su Yan, my mother is going to take me to the town to see the lanterns tonight, you can go with us!" ”

There were only a few times when the town was lively in the previous year, and Su Yan naturally didn't want to miss it, so she nodded immediately, "Okay." ”

The little girl got the answer she wanted, her big eyes smiled like a crescent moon, and she walked out satisfied, and before going out, she didn't forget to look back and say, "Sister Su Yan, remember to bring Zhongkang!" ”

After dinner, the four of them set off to the town, Aunt Liu and Su Yan each carried a lantern to light the way, Xia Hua walked in the middle, and talked to Zhong Kang in a cheerful tone.

"Fool Zhongkang, last year I took a fancy to a little fox's lantern, and that lantern is so beautiful! But it was snatched away by others...... I almost guessed the mystery! ”

"Huh? Where are you from? Do you have the same lanterns there as we have in town? ”

"Fool Zhongkang, let's compete in a while to see who guesses the most lantern riddles!"

Zhong Kang never said a word, only Xia Hua asked in a hurry, and he said a perfunctory "um" to say that he was listening.

"Okay, Hua'er, I've talked all the way, let your mouth rest, don't be too tired." Aunt Liu heard the perfunctory in Zhong Kang's words, and spoke out to stop Xia Hua.

It's also strange to say that Zhong Kang usually talks to Su Yan with an eager attitude, but as soon as he changes others, he will only say "um", or simply don't speak, the difference can be seen at a glance.

Aunt Liu glanced at Zhong Kang suspiciously.

Not what she thinks.

The moon is full of ice wheels, the lights burn the land and sea, and people step on the spring sun.

Although the town is remote, the day of the Shangyuan Festival is also not much more lively, the red lanterns are hung in front of every house, the streets and alleys are lit up, the lanterns on both sides of the street are connected, the dragon and lion dance teams shuttle through the crowd, the sound of gongs and drums is deafening, and the cheers that sometimes break out from the crowd are added, the whole town is filled with the atmosphere of the festival, noisy and lively.

Aunt Liu took Xia Hua, Su Yan led Zhong Kang, and the four of them came to the main street of the town, and when they arrived on the street, they felt that their eyes were bright, but they saw a huge lantern wheel, nearly 20 zhang, covered with silk ribbons and brocade, and gold and silver dotted in the meantime, hundreds of lanterns were clustered on it, reflecting the whole sky bright, like day.

Dou Xian tilted his head slightly, and saw the people next to him looking up at the huge light wheel in front of him.

She wore a concubine-colored embroidered begonia jacket, a tooth-white eight-piece Hunan skirt, Qiong's nose and eyes were delicate and delicate, and the bright light of the lantern sprinkled on her face, illuminating her already fair and moist skin like a fine mutton fat jade, and the beauty was unparalleled.

Su Yan looked at the light, and Dou Xian looked at her. Both of them couldn't take their eyes off it.

As soon as Xia Hua looked up, she saw this scene, her ink dots rolled her eyes, and she pointed to the team on stilts at the end of the light wheel and said crisply: "Sister Su Yan!" My aunt and I went over there to see the stilts! ”

As he spoke, he took Aunt Liu's hand and walked back around the light wheel, and Aunt Liu had to say to Su Yan when she saw this: "Su Yan, look at Xia Hua's monkey look...... If you can't find us in a moment, just wait under the locust tree on the street, don't run around. ”

Saying that, she glanced at Zhong Kang on the side uneasily, and wanted to tell her anything more, but was interrupted by Xia Hua, who was yelling, and dragged away.

After seeing enough of the lantern wheel, Su Yan slowly walked down the street along the flow of people, all kinds of lanterns hung on wooden shelves, dazzling and eye-catching, and a group of people were more or less surrounded in front of each stall, and from time to time there were sighs or exclamations.

Walking to a stall, there were many more onlookers, Su Yan couldn't help but stop curiously, this look was stunned, only to see a glass lotus lamp hanging in the center of the wooden frame of this stall, the five-colored glass is a candle flame with a lotus heart in layers of petals, and the whole body is clear and seems to have a streamer.

Su Yan traveled with Dr. Han when she was a child, and once saw a similar glass lantern in Yangzhou, a thousand petals of heavy lotus such as a Yao Chi hibiscus blooming, because it was too shocking, Su Yan still remembers the appearance of the glass lantern.

And the one in front of me is no different from the lantern!

Glass lanterns are extremely rare in the town, and Su Yan has only seen this once in the six years she has been here.

Rare things are expensive, not to mention that this glass lantern is really exquisite.

The stall owner is an old man with frosty white sideburns, a crane-haired childish face and a strong voice, "As long as someone can match this pair, the little old man will give him this glass lamp." ”

As soon as the stall owner said this, many people were eager to try, and there was even a young man who looked like a scholar, either to make a good impression in front of his sweetheart, or to show his talent, he was full of ambition and crowded in front of people, trying to make a couplet.

The lanterns in front of the stall were taken away one by one, only this glass lantern was always hanging on the wooden frame, and most of the pedestrians who were eager to try before had gone at the moment, and the rest were just waiting for a result to see if the lantern would eventually be taken away.

"Smoke along the eaves of the smoke swallow eyes ......" Su Yan raised her head and read the couplets embellished under the lanterns.

This pair is really tricky, if it is not for real talent or talent, it is difficult for ordinary people to match in a short period of time.

After twisting her eyebrows and thinking hard to achieve any results, Su Yan turned around and wanted to leave.

"The fog covers the black house, and the fog is nothing."

A low and pleasant voice came from overhead, Su Yan was stunned, looked up at the person beside her, but saw that he looked serious and focused, and repeated Fang Cai's words to the stall owner, "The fog covers the black house." ”

The stall owner was overjoyed, muttered a few times to Zhongkang's couplet, and applauded: "Okay! The battle is neat and seamless, which is a wonderful pair! Wonderful, wonderful! ”

Seeing Zhong Kangfeng's handsome appearance, the stall owner couldn't help but say: "Such a talent, I don't know if the son is willing to leave Mobao!" ”

If it is an ordinary person, this time will be complacent, a mouthful, the stall owner has prepared a pen, ink, paper and inkstone waiting for him to lift the pen, clinker Zhongkang was stunned, stubbornly staring at the lantern, "Lantern." ”

The old stall owner knew that he didn't want to keep ink, sighed, raised his hand to untie the lantern on the wooden shelf and handed it to Zhong Kang, "Childe, please take it." ”

Zhong Kang took the lantern and sent it to Su Yan like an invitation, "Lady, give." ”

Seeing him like this, the old stall owner looked at the two happily with his snow-white long beard, and said, "This son is outstanding in literature and good looks, and the girl is really blessed!" ”

"Uncle, you misunderstood......"

Suddenly, dazzling fireworks exploded in the air, one after another reflecting the entire sky as if it were day, and the sound of fireworks breaking through the air one after another covered up Su Yan's words.

"Girl, let's go and watch the fireworks with my son, the little old man's wife is still waiting at home, and the stall will be closed!" Most of the lanterns on the wooden shelves have been taken away, and the old stall took the initiative to put away the stall neatly.

Su Yan was shocked and didn't have the heart to watch the fireworks, looked at Zhong Kang dumbfounded, and it took a long time to find back her words, and she snorted: "Zhong Kang, you ......"

Zhong Kang lowered his head, "Huh? ”

is still clear and innocent eyes, with a blank face that can't be hidden.

Su Yan couldn't help but swallow the rest of the words back into her stomach and muttered, "It's nothing." ”
