Seeing that the Lantern Festival is coming, Yan Yan has been so idle recently that he is lazy and doesn't want to work after the New Year. At this time, he was still lazily nesting on the couch, and Yang was on the side to collect the soles of his shoes.

"Aoyama!" Li Laosan's unique voice came from outside the courtyard.

"It's coming!" Yan Qingshan hurriedly went out, "What's the matter?" Look at your happy face! ”

"Of course it's a happy thing!" Li Laosan patted Yan Qingshan's shoulder and said with a smile: "In two days of the Lantern Festival, there will be lanterns in Shahe Town!" ”

"Really?" Yan Qingshan was also surprised, because Shahe Town hadn't held a lantern festival for many years, "It won't be bluffing, right?" Yan Qingshan was skeptical.

"It's true! I heard that the business in Shahe Town was good last year, and the wharf attracted a lot of cargo ships, this county lord was praised by the above, so I want to hold a lantern festival to be lively! ”

"That's great!" Yan Qingshan shouted happily: "Girl, let's watch the lanterns during the Lantern Festival!" ”

Originally, Yan Yan was drowsy by the warm brazier in the house, but Yan Qingshan's shout, she woke up completely. It just so happened that Yan Qingshan and Li Laosan came into the house, and Yan Yan hurriedly sat down.

"Daddy, you just said lanterns?" Yan Yan asked, and Yang also looked at him.

"That's right, when we came back from my mother-in-law's house, we happened to hear everyone talking, so we went up to ask, and a notice was also posted on the yamen, so I came to tell you!"

"It just so happens that Yan Yan, you haven't seen the lanterns yet! Let's check it out then! "Yang hasn't seen it for many years, so I'm excited.

"Okay." Yan Yan originally wanted to say that he had seen it, but when he saw everyone's happiness, he didn't say anything. And this is probably the only event of the New Year, right? "Then how many of our families will go together? There are exactly two ox carts, which should be able to carry everyone. ”

"That's it!" Li Laosan slapped his thigh, immediately responded, and then continued to say the news. Yan Yan was sobered up by this incident, so he followed Yang's sewing clothes.

In the blink of an eye, the Lantern Festival is coming, everyone has had dinner early, and then they are ready to leave. When it was just getting dark. So everyone got into the ox cart and set off, the woman and the child in a cart, and the man in a cart. Li Laosan and Yan Qingshan caught the car, and Li Duofu and Yan Shaojie sat next to them.

In this way, the ox cart is just right, and it will not be crowded. Because Fu'er is a child. When I'm awake, I don't like black hemp. Zhang Dayang made a lantern in advance, and it was hung in the oxcart at this time, and with the oxcart shaking, the usually dim light is now very bright.

"Ahh Fu'er was very excited when she saw the lantern for the first time, and she kept standing on Qingzhu's lap and stretched out her little hand to get it.

"Fu'er, this is a lantern," Yan Yan taught him. "Lanterns!"

"Wait, mother. Yes! Fu'er can already call her mother clearly, and she can call her mother if she wants anything.

"Fu'er, you can't take this, let's just watch it like this!" Qingzhu hugged Fu'er and taught patiently.

"Yes!" Fu'er pouted, unhappy, and the mist rose in her eyes.

"Good, Fu'er, sister hug!" Yan Yan stretched out his hand and hugged Fu'er, "This lantern is not good-looking, as long as you are obedient, let's get you the best-looking lantern later, okay?" Fu'er looked at Yan Yan and didn't speak, but she didn't make a fuss anymore, I don't know if she believed her words.

"Fu'er, this is sugar, do you want to eat it?" Yan Yan knew that the child only needed to divert his attention, so he took out the peanut candy he had prepared at the moment, and knew that he quickly took it over and broke the peanut candy.

"Sweet! Eat! Fu'er knew that sugar was sweet, and was immediately attracted, and when she saw that she took it away, she thought that her mother wouldn't give her food, so she hurriedly stretched out her little hand to ask for it.

"Give!" Qingzhu fed him little by little, and Fu'er, who had food, immediately forgot about the stubble of the lantern, and a group of people surrounded him and coaxed him, and arrived in Shahe Town without crying or making trouble.

"Ahh Fu'er got off the ox cart and saw the rows of lanterns in the distance, he was very excited, struggling to go down to the ground by himself, but there were many people here, Qingzhu would of course let him come, just Zhang Dayang got out of the car and walked over, picked up Fu'er and put it on his shoulder and rode high, "Giggles!" Fu'er immediately burst out laughing.

"This kid!" Qingzhu scolded with a smile, and then everyone went to see the lanterns together.

Shahe Town is still small in the end, because no one has bought the surrounding vacant land, so the lanterns have to be held at the pier. It's a winter night again, and the sea breeze is even colder. Yan Yan was so cold that he shivered.

"Sister, come!" Yan Shaojie saw that Yan Yan was cold, so he took her away, because it was night, and the elders were there, so he didn't worry about others talking nonsense. Yan Yan snuggled in Yan Shaojie's arms and felt a little warmer, and with the soup woman in his arms, Yan Yan felt much better.

Yan Yan turned his head to look, Zhang Dayang was holding Fu'er in one hand and Qingzhu in the other, and the same was true for Meihua and Xiaoyun, alas, she was lucky to have her brother to hug her, otherwise she would have been tortured to death if she didn't die cold. Although Yan Qingshan and the Yang family are old husbands and wives, but taking advantage of the night, Yan Qingshan still quietly held Yang's hand, and the Yang family struggled and didn't break away, so they simply didn't care.

"Wow, it's the first time I've seen a lantern!" The sound of plum blossoms came from the front, and there were a lot of people around, and it was estimated that because it was rare, almost all the surrounding villagers came, so everyone followed closely, for fear of getting separated.

"Brother Yangshu, look, that lantern is very beautiful!" Xiaoyun smiled sweetly, his face full of happiness.

Niu Xiaoyu and Yang Shu saw that their daughter-in-law liked it, so they immediately stepped forward to buy it. "Wait!" Yan Shao stopped in a loud voice, "There should be a lantern riddle guessing in front, and the lantern won back should be more meaningful, right?" ”

"Really? Then let's go! Otherwise, there will be none! Meihua immediately pulled Niu Xiaoyu to leave, everyone laughed and followed, Yan Yan was also a little looking forward to it, a rare event!

"Boss, how do you guess the lantern riddle?" Niu Xiaoyu pulled the plum blossom and stood in front of a stall and asked.

"Which do you want?" The boss asked with a smile.

"This plum blossom lantern," Niu Xiaoyu's words came out, everyone laughed, and Plum Blossom blushed and lowered her head.

"If you answer three questions correctly, you can take the lantern." The boss pointed to the piece of paper hanging under the lantern, on which were written three riddles. Niu Xiaoyu looked at it, and then said, "Shaojie, help me read the words above." ”

"Okay," Yan Shaojie said: "There is a head without a neck, there are eyes without eyebrows, there are no feet to walk, and it is difficult to fly with wings (guess an animal)." ”

"Fish," Niu Xiaoyu said after a moment's thought. "That's right!" The boss said, "You're so good! Plum blossom immediately clapped his hands and said.

"A star, a little. Take the big road and drill small holes (guess an insect). ”

"Ants."

"A little dragon, with a beard as hard as a dumpling, alive without blood, dead and covered with red (guess an animal)."

"Shrimp."

"Congratulations, this lantern is yours!" The boss smiled and gave the lantern to Niu Xiaoyu, and Meihua was very moved when he took it. Yan Yan was also moved in his heart, after all, Niu Xiaoyu was illiterate but still won the lantern by himself to give it to the plum blossom, this love is the most important thing. (To be continued......)

PS: The riddle is very simple, because Niu Xiaoyu is illiterate!

Don't dislike it, dear friends!
