"Bang bang bang!" The sound of firecrackers echoed in the courtyard, and the laughter of the servants who set them off could be faintly heard.

Before gunpowder, people did not have such a thing as fireworks, so during the Chinese New Year and festive festivals, firecrackers were generally set off to celebrate. The principle of firecrackers is very simple, that is, directly throw the bamboo into the fire to burn, and the bamboo will naturally make a "bang" sound when it bursts, and this firecracker will naturally evolve into firecrackers in later generations.

The Bashu region is rich in bamboo, so firecrackers are even more common.

Today is the day of Li Li'er's marriage, and of course this firecracker has to be set off vigorously.

"General, be careful, there are steps ahead." Li Ping walked briskly in front of Li Xinchen with a lantern, and the two guards carefully supported him.

When the surrounding servants saw Li Xinchen coming back, they hurriedly stood respectfully on both sides. And Xiao Xiang had already gotten the news and brought a few maidservants over.

"Okay, so-and-so isn't drunk, it's okay to play here." As soon as Li Xinchenfu stepped into the moon cave door that separated the inner and outer courtyards, he straightened his waist, and the half-drunk and half-awake expression on his face had dissipated.

"What's going on?" Xiao Xiang was also a little foggy, Li Xinchen sent Li Li'er to Xiao Mansion, didn't he say that he was drunk by Xiao Boqing and them in Xiao Mansion, why is it okay to come back now?

Li Xinchen stretched his waist and first whispered to Li Ping: "Go and leave a back door for our groom, it's not okay to go to the front door early tomorrow morning." ”

When Li Ping was busy and took the guards, Li Xinchen stretched out his hand and pulled Xiao Xiang: "Let's go, let's talk in the study." ”

Xiao Xiang snorted hesitantly, smelling that Li Xinchen's body still had a strong smell of wine, and couldn't help but hand him the prepared decanting soup first: "Drink the soup first to sober up." ”

"I didn't drink a few glasses, most of them were pretended." Although Li Xinchen explained, looking at Xiao Xiang's determined gaze, he still drank the decanting soup.

"Drink slowly!" Xiao Xiang watched with tears and laughter as some soup slid down Li Xinchen's clothes, and hurriedly took out a handkerchief to help him wipe it.

Li Xinchen shook his head and held Xiao Xiang's wrist: "We don't have to be so particular, that is, we spilled a little soup, and this dress is not impossible to wear." ”

"If you don't pay attention to it at home, will you wait until you go to the battlefield, and then you will have no place to pay attention to it." Xiao Xiang glanced at him and waved his hand, "That's it, let's just take it and wash it." ”

Li Xinchen touched his nose: "Xiang'er, you have changed now······

Xiao Xiang skillfully untied Li Xinchen's outer robe, and asked casually, "Where has changed?" ”

"You're like, no, a standard housewife now." Li Xinchen couldn't help laughing.

Handing the robe to the maidservant, Xiao Xiang said dissatisfiedly: "Isn't this good, what does the husband want to make the concubine look like?" ”

Li Xinchen did not answer this time, but gently grabbed Xiao Xiang's hand.

As if he had a premonition, Xiao Xiang raised his head slightly: "Is there going to be a war?" ”

Li Xinchen had to sigh that a woman's sixth sense is always so strong, no matter who it is. nodded, he didn't mean to deceive his woman: "After tonight, we will go on the expedition, in fact, Pei Dashi and they have already gone first, and they will leave again tomorrow morning, this is already the last group of people." ”

"In such a hurry?" Xiao Xiang was used to this kind of separation, but her hand was already tightly clasped with Li Xinchen's hand, as if it would be separated forever in an instant, so she cherished the moment that was passing quickly.

"With Boqing's wedding, it can be used as a cover," Li Xinchen said in a deep voice, but quickly explained, "Of course, Xiao Boqing's guy is going to live or die by himself, and he can't stop him, so he can only let him." ”

"What's the use of explaining this sentence to Li'er and telling the concubine." Xiao Xiang laughed, "Xiao Boqing is in such a hurry to go to the battlefield because he can't rest assured of you." ”

Of course, Li Xinchen also knew that Xiao Shilian didn't want to miss this big battle, and he knew very well that it would be related to their future. If Luzhou and Hezhou can't take it, then Li Xinchen will fall into a comprehensive passivity, such a crucial battle, Xiao Shilian certainly doesn't want to be absent.

But having said that, Li Xinchen still has to express some dissatisfaction with his brother-in-law leaving his newlywed sister to go to the battlefield, otherwise when Xiao Xiang and Li Li'er talk about the boudoir, his attitude will be very problematic when he goes to Li Li'er, so he snorted solemnly at the moment:

"A certain self-questioning ability to fight is still a few points higher than him."

Xiao Xiang is also a smart woman, how could she not figure out what Li Xinchen meant, shook her head slightly, and reached out to poke Li Xinchen's chest: "You men are desperate in front, and we are worried at home, this is common sense." It is your responsibility to fight on the battlefield, and there is nothing to explain, what is the husband's heart? ”

"Why, do you dare to question your husband in turn?" Li Xinchen simply hugged Xiao Xiang, looking like a scoundrel, "Tell me, what punishment do you want?" ”

Xiao Xiang met Li Xinchen's gaze, and the cheeks of the two people were getting closer and closer.

The girl's face was slightly red, and she gritted her teeth and closed her eyes.

And Li Xinchen was not polite, and kissed Xiao Xiang on the lips heavily the next moment.

This girl is still young, and it's not good to eat and wipe clean, but it's okay to kiss it.

Lip splitting.

After all, Xiao Xiang was still the first time - in fact, Li Xinchen was also the first time in this life - before Li Xinchen only kissed her forehead at most. Therefore, for a while, I didn't know where the person was, and asked in a daze:

"Husband, when will you return?"

And Li Xinchen gently rubbed Xiao Xiang's little head: "I don't know about this, but I will definitely come back to celebrate the New Year with you, okay?" ”

"What about us?"

"Let's sleep!" Li Xinchen picked up Xiao Xiang and strode towards the bedroom.

Xiao Xiang listened to Li Xinchen's heartbeat close at hand, and muttered, "Together?" ”

"Together, of course!" Li Xinchen was determined.

Although the sound of firecrackers in the courtyard has stopped, the sound of staccato sounds can still be heard in the street in the distance. There is even the laughter of people playing in the streets.

After all, it is not yet a curfew, and today it is rare that there is no curfew at all, so for the people in this Ba County city, the time is still early!

——————————————-

A touch of morning light shone on Li Xinchen's body, and the silver armor had been wiped spotlessly. Along with the armor were Li Xinchen's saber and Ziyun spear, the same cold light shining, waiting for a new battle.

Xiao Xiang didn't have time to freshen up, but hastily put on a coat and leaned over to tie Li Xinchen's belt. Looking at the girl's exposed snow-white skin and thin clothes, Li Xinchen exhaled deeply.

Although Gentle Township is good, it also needs his sword to protect it.
