Chapter 16 Mid-Autumn Festival

"Whew..."

After a fierce "hard battle", Xi'er slowly put down the dishes and chopsticks, let out a long breath, leaned lazily on the seat, stretched out with satisfaction, and said softly: "It feels good to eat a full meal!"

"Cut!" The corners of her ruddy and delicate mouth pursed slightly, and Ling'er let out a boo full of contempt.

"There is a lantern festival in the west of the city tonight, you can accompany me to take a look!" Ling'er stretched out her hands and gently put them on Xi'er's arms, and said affectionately.

"What kind of lantern will it be!?" asked with his head slightly raised to the right side and a little puzzled.

But before Xi'er understood the meaning of the Lantern Festival, Ling'er picked up the drifting snow and took the lead in getting up, standing in front of the seat and looking at Xi'er who was leisurely immersed in the food, and said with great interest: "Let's go, you'll know when you arrive!"

Xi'er, who has lived in the mountains for ten years, has never heard of a lantern festival, even in the seven years he has lived with his mother, he has never heard of or seen it, so the word lantern festival is particularly new to him.

"Let's go!"

Immediately, Ling'er excitedly took Xi'er's hand and ran out, leaving the seat behind him in embarrassment, and there was a clanging sound.

Originally, Ling'er was going to go to the Lantern Festival just now, but she accidentally met Xi'er on the street, in order to confirm that she didn't boast to Xi'er in previous years, how delicious the food in Fancheng is, the best way is to take him to experience it personally, which also caused Ling'er to delay the time to visit the Lantern Festival, but it is not good to mention it when Xi'er is eating, at this moment, she can not be in a hurry!

The two of them trotted all the way and rushed straight downstairs, their brisk steps on the suspended stairs and a burst of clanging sounds, attracting the dull and puzzled eyes of countless people downstairs.

"Xiao Er, this is the money for the meal!" Without any pause, Ling'er took out a gold coin and threw it to the shopkeeper, and then pulled Xi'er away.

"Miss, I haven't found your money yet...!" Looking at the back of Ling'er rushing out, the shopkeeper held the gold coin in both hands, chased after the door, and shouted loudly.

"Don't look for it!" The crisp and pleasant voice came slowly, Ling'er held a sword in her right hand, and ran on the moonlit street with Xi'er's arm with her left hand, and after hearing the shout of the shopkeeper, she let go of her right hand holding Xi'er's arm, and gently swayed it on the top of her head, and the cuffs slid down to her elbows, revealing a white and delicate forearm.

......

Finally, after more than ten minutes of fast running, the bustling crowd vaguely appeared in the sight of the two, Ling'er took Xi'er's hand and said excitedly: "Look, it's just ahead, it's coming soon!"

"You haven't told me what the lantern festival is!" Along the way, Xi'er was pulled by Ling'er in a daze, followed Ling'er with questions, and ran on the street where the moonlight cut obliquely, until now, he vaguely saw the bustling crowd in front of him, and couldn't help asking.

Hearing this, Ling'er suddenly stopped, looked at Xi'er in dismay, with a blank look on her face, and the corners of her mouth twitched: "You don't even know what the Lantern Festival is, so how did you get over the past ten years!?"

His eyes sank, Xi'er's face stagnated slightly, his left hand was subconsciously raised, he scratched the back of his head embarrassedly, and said, "Grandpa Xiao didn't say it, how did I know..."

"Then do you know about the Mid-Autumn Festival!?" Ling'er's eyes widened completely, and she looked at Xi'er with an embarrassed face in amazement, and said in amazement.

"Uh... I know...!" Xi'er subconsciously raised her left hand and scratched the back of her head unintentionally.

"The Lantern Festival is a party to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival, let's go, you'll know in a while!" sighed slightly, Ling'er showed a charming smile and said softly.

Suddenly, Xi'er remembered every Mid-Autumn Festival night in the past ten years, remembered the little boy who was lying on the roof and staring at the moon, a smile of relief rose on the corner of his mouth, and he said secretly: "Mother, I am no longer alone this year, have you seen it in the sky?"

Immediately, Ling'er stretched out her left hand, took Xi'er's arm and ran towards the bustling crowd again, leaving only two young backs, gradually drowning in the bustling crowd...

At this moment, the two of them completely melted into each other's hearts, not only Xi'er, but in the past ten years, Ling'er has not spent the Mid-Autumn Festival alone!

......

From a distance, a delicate little girl, holding a black and silver long sword in her hand, bouncing through the flowing crowd, under the light blue gown, covering her fair and slender legs, soft waist-length long hair, dancing with the shaking of her body, just like her first love, leaving a beautiful scenery in Xi'er's eyes.

At this time, Ling'er had already let go of the left hand holding Xi'er, completely released her lively and lovely side, danced to her heart's content, and pointed to the stall not far away Yiyue and said, "I want to eat that... That one... And that!"

Immediately, Ling'er stepped forward with a sword in one hand, and ran excitedly towards the stall with light steps.

"Ling'er, you run slower..."Looking at Ling'er's cheerful and charming back, Xi'er's heart was full of warmth and a little worried.

"Don't worry, it's okay!" the pleasant voice passed through the noisy crowd and clearly reached Xi'er's ears.

For Ling'er, the Mid-Autumn Festival is the most sad festival in the year except for the Spring Festival, for the words that Xi'er said to her ten years ago, she has always remembered it, that is, since then, every year on the Mid-Autumn Festival, she will run alone to the Lantern Festival, eat all the dessert fruits on the stall, and try her best to hide the strong uneasiness in her heart!

After that, Ling'er will sit at the head of the bridge and watch the moon all night, until early in the morning, she will slowly leave!

Year after year, day after day, gradually, this uneasiness was completely buried in the depths of Ling'er's heart, and I saw today's seemingly carefree and innocent Ling'er!

"Wow!"

Ling'er wore a mask and quietly lurked behind Xi'er, quickly patting his hands on his shoulders and screaming.

Xi'er, who didn't know anything about it, was instantly shocked, only to feel that the blood was rising rapidly, and the spirit shivered, and her face was full of horror.

"Haha... Brother Mengxi, you are so bold, hahahaha!" took off the mask, Ling'er leaned forward and closed his breath and laughed like a gloating.

"Dare to make fun of your brother, your courage is really not small!" calmed down slightly, and the corners of Xi'er's mouth raised a sly smile.

"Oops, it hurts... It hurts, it hurts..."

Ling'er's laughter didn't stop, and she was pinched by Xi'er's powerful hands on her fair and pink face, not only that, but Xi'er also pinched Ling'er's face and shook it from side to side, and Ling'er grinned in pain.

"It hurts... Hurt... Hurt...... I don't dare... I really don't dare next time... It hurts..."The muttering voice came slowly, and Ling'er's rosy lips were pulled into a slit by Xi'er, begging for mercy.

"Next time, you want to have a next time, huh?" Xi'er didn't buy it, and continued to sway from side to side.

"No, no, no... There's no next time... There really isn't any... Can you let go of it first... "Although Ling'er kept shouting that it hurts, Xi'er is still measured, and he is reluctant to really hurt Ling'er."......

However, as soon as Xi'er let go, an accident happened...

I saw Ling'er put the mask in his hand and slammed it on Xi'er's face, he only felt a sore nose, but when he reacted, Ling'er had already disappeared...

"Uh... I'm really in the water in my head, and I would actually believe her words..."Xi'er stood in place with the mask of the giant ugly on her face and said with remorse.

Taking off the mask and throwing it aside, Xi'er continued to wander around, and after a while, Ling'er who slipped back was pinched her waist...

"Ahh

With a shrunk waist, I saw Xi'er's eyes staring round, and she reflexively ducked to the side, screaming...

"Shhhhhhhhh Putting his finger between his mouth, he whispered as if he didn't care about himself.

"You...!" Xi'er was directly angry and had nothing to say, so she had to express it with actions!

"Oops... Ha ha... Don't make a fuss... What about so many people... Stop... Ah... Hahahaha......" A series of tragic laughter spread through the bustling crowd, attracting a pair of strange eyes from everyone around.

It turned out that it was Xi'er who grabbed Ling'er's graceful waist, kept scratching and tickling, and kept dodging backwards, and Xi'er was also chasing after and punishing this little devil who was mischievous.

The two of them chased me and dodged in the crowd, and ran straight out of the two streets, and suddenly, both of them slowed down and stopped, no one was laughing, and they fell silent little by little...
