Chapter 169: Shangyuan Lantern Festival
The annual leave is taken until the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, which is undoubtedly the best benefit for officials in the DPRK, during this time, you can enjoy the atmosphere of the New Year without paying attention to the troubled state affairs.
In Yanyang, lantern festivals are organized every Shangyuan Festival, but this year is no exception.
"Shangyuan Festival, the day they met, but it has also become the beginning of a tragedy, what should I do......" They of course referred to Chu Xuanyu and Yu Linglong
Yu Ling held the silk silk embroidered with wooden flowers in her hand and muttered to herself, she was confused, telling the truth is nothing more than one result, Chu Xuanyu will be sad.
"Ling'er!"
Hearing his voice, Yu Ling quickly stuffed the silk into his sleeve, lay on the couch and pretended to sleep, and only opened his eyes lazily when he walked to him.
"Coming back?"
"Hmm." Chu Xuanyu touched her belly, leaned over it and listened for a while, a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, a subtle sensation trembled slightly on his cheeks, and he had already felt it in an instant.
"She's moving, does she know that her father will come, that's why she's so happy? Hehe. He spoke to the baby in his womb as if he could understand.
"Talk to him more, and the child will be smart in the future."
When Chu Xuanyu heard this, his eyes lit up, "Is this really the case?" ”
"Really."
He sat up straight, straightened his shirt again, and said solemnly: "Child, I am your father, you have to be obedient, don't make your mother angry." ”
Yu Ling was embarrassed when he heard this, "How can a husband teach a child like this?" ”
"So what?"
"Talk to him every day and read poems to him."
Chu Xuanyu understood, and began to get up in front of Yu Ling's stomach, and she began to feel sleepy when she heard this, okay, she was wrong!
"Today is the Shangyuan Festival, and I will take you to enjoy the lanterns for my husband at night."
"Okay." She replied, perhaps, that this was a good opportunity for her to bring back his memories.
In the evening, as soon as the sky was dark, some people rushed out of their homes one after another, the city gradually became lively, the bright moonlight put a layer of silver light veil on the city, the high light city, standing on a large flat ground, the lights and the moon were shining, colorful, the Baolian lantern elevated in the center, the fluttering flags, the twinkling sea of lights, all showed its majestic glory.
As night falls, people from all over the world come to watch the lanterns, the tide is coming, and the street is full of all kinds of lights, such as jade rabbit lanterns, marquee lanterns, peacock lanterns, and gourd lanterns, cat lanterns...... It's dizzying and dazzling.
There were more and more people carrying all kinds of lanterns, and Chu Xuanyu hugged Yu Ling's waist tightly and carefully protected her in his arms, for fear that if he was not careful, he would hit her stomach.
"Isn't it lively?"
"Hmmm! There are so many people, so many lanterns, it's so beautiful! She replied aloud.
The crowd is crowded, and people often bump into them, Chu Xuanyu firmly encircled her by her side, even if it collided, Yu Ling was not affected at all, this scene was very similar to the Shangyuan Festival, the bad fate that was pulled out because of holding the wrong hand.
Yu Ling's hand hidden in the cloak tightened and tightened, and after some internal struggle, she finally decided that she still had to go according to the previous plan.
She took his hand, her fingers clasped tightly, her heart pounding, if he asked, how would she respond?
"Hold on tightly so you don't get swept away!"
Chu Xuanyu's heart trembled slightly, why are these words, as well as this move, surprisingly similar to that Shangyuan Lantern Festival?
He looked down at Yu Ling, who was just looking excitedly at the lanterns hanging around her, completely unaware that one of her unconscious actions would make the men around her palpitate.
How could she not have realized it? And how can it be unconscious?
After listening to her words, Chu Xuanyu's body stiffened obviously, and the hand he was holding tightened slightly, Yu Ling knew what he remembered.
"Husband, I want that!" She pointed to a jade rabbit lamp.
Chu Xuanyu looked at her fondly and scratched her nose, "It's almost the mother of two children, and I still like this kind of thing that little girls like." ”
She blinked, "Why, no?" ”
What's wrong with little girls, it's women who like this kind of cute thing. She muttered to herself.
Chu Xuanyu led her to the vendor selling the jade rabbit lantern, took out the copper plate and bought it, the vendor saw Yu Ling holding his stomach, and saw the two clasping hands, and couldn't help laughing.
"This minister is really considerate! Looking at this lady, I'm afraid she is five or six months pregnant, right? ”
"It's only been four months."
"Four months?" The peddler was a little unconvinced, "It seems that it will be at least five or six months, aren't they twins?" ”
The hawker's words made Chu Xuanyu happy, "Borrow your auspicious words and reward you!" ”
He took a piece of silver to the hawker, and then took Yu Ling away, and the hawker took the silver and looked at it, obediently, ten taels! After saying a nice word, he got the silver that could buy all his lanterns, and he was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth.
As soon as he heard that it might be twins, Chu Xuanyu protected Yu Ling strictly, are they two sons? Or two daughters? Or is it a man and a woman?
Yu Ling was holding a lantern in her hand, but her mind was not on this lamp, of course, she didn't know that Chu Xuanyu was fantasizing about the baby in her belly at the moment, whether it was a man or a woman, with different thoughts.
"Ling'er, just now the vendor said that it might be twins, but now it's okay, Lu'er has a younger brother and a younger sister."
Chu Xuanyu's happy mood was indescribable, if it weren't for the fact that there were too many people on the street now, he would definitely kiss this woman who made him love to the bone.
"Husband, are you so sure of the dragon and phoenix fetus?" Yu Ling came back to his senses, was he happy too early? If there is only one in the stomach, wouldn't it be a waste of joy?
"Of course! Didn't you hear from the vendor, your belly looks like it's five or six months old, maybe it's twins? ”
Yu Ling's eyes rolled, "It's also possible that I remember the wrong day, or not!" ”
"How so? Oh Ling'er, you can't imagine that there is a pair of dragon and phoenix fetuses in this belly, you say he is, he is! ”
"But if there is only one, wouldn't it be a great disappointment?"
Chu Xuanyu's face collapsed, "Ling'er, why do you always pour cold water on your husband?" However, whether it is a single child or a twin child, as long as it is born by Ling'er, the husband regards it as a treasure and takes care of it! ”
He hugged Yu Ling tightly and swore a promise.
"Well, let's raise them together......"
Yu Ling glanced at the orange bright spots slowly rising in the sky, and pointed to the slowly rising Kong Ming lantern and was excited.
"Look, husband! What a lot of perforated lights! ”
Chu Xuanyu turned around and raised his head, "Ling'er likes it?" Then let's go and put Kong Ming lanterns together! ”
"Good!"
The two walked together, walked through the crowded crowd all the way to the river, and listened to Yu Lingxi's description, this is where Yu Linglong and Chu Xuanyu fell in love.
In the open space by the river, people write their wishes on the lamps, and then light candles, watching the Kong Ming lanterns fly into the sky with their wishes, flying higher and higher.
"What kind of wish does Ling'er want to make?" Chu Xuanyu brought a brush and handed it to her.
Yu Ling thought about it, "I wish that one person's heart would not be separated." ”
A line of beautiful small characters fell on the surface of the lamp, and a cluster of small flowers was drawn.
"Alright, you can put it away!"
She carried the lamp and handed it to him, and at this time, when Chu Xuanyu saw the handwriting and the content of the line she wrote, her head buzzed.
"Muxi?"
