Chapter 204: Tangram

The next day, as usual, it was a mountain path away from the official road.

As for whether it is a shortcut, how many days can you get to Liangzhou, Huangfu Jingchen doesn't care at all.

On the contrary, Xia Wenjin took the initiative to say: "From here, it will take about five days to cross that mountain, and the mountain is Liangzhou, when the time comes, find a market and buy a horse, and the horse will walk for two days, and you will reach your destination." ”

Seven days, does she schedule the time at seven? Is there still seven days left with her?

Huangfu Jingchen nodded silently.

There are still seven days, which is not a short time.

Xia Wenjin sometimes runs on a horse, sometimes on foot, she has a bright smile, she plays with all her heart, and she will never be coquettish when she is in a hurry.

If you miss the accommodation, you will sleep in the open, and when you are hungry, you will find something to eat by yourself, in the wild, Huangfu Jingchen does not have to worry about being hungry at all, as long as you can find the ingredients, Xia Wenjin has the ability to make it delicious.

As for the scene that happened in Shi'an Temple at that time, it was as if it had never happened at all.

Seeing that she was completely unconcerned, Huangfu Jingchen pressed back the words that came to her mouth again and again.

Or, don't bother with the purity and simplicity, don't make things more complicated, it's better. At least for those seven days, they could get along well.

On the third day, the two of them had walked more than a hundred miles, which was closer to the mountain, and in another day, they would reach the foot of the mountain, and it would take a day to climb the mountain, Xia Wenjin calculated the time very well.

There is a village at the foot of the mountain, and there are more than 40 families in this village, built on the mountain, living by the water. The peaceful way the villagers lived and worked made the village feel like a paradise.

When Xia Wenjin saw it, he liked this place, and he didn't plan to sleep at night.

They were going to borrow a night at the villager's house.

Walking into the village along a road that can be driven by a carriage, the villagers here are very hospitable, in a three-room earthen house of the villager's house, Xia Wenjin proposed that he wanted to spend the night, and the owner immediately agreed.

It was an old couple, their son and daughter-in-law were out to work, and the two elders were at home with their grandson, and there happened to be an empty room.

However, there is only one.

The old woman smiled: "Fortunately, you are two young men, it doesn't matter if you live in one room, if you are brother and sister, you have to divide the room again." ”

Xia Wenjin: "......"

She now feels that men's clothing is sometimes not so convenient!

However, Huangfu Jingchen is also a gentleman, and along the way, he didn't even touch her with a finger.

Seeing that his father-in-law's family was not very rich, Xia Wenjin took the silver for housing and food.

The old woman didn't have any good things at home, so she went to the village chief's house to buy a piece of old bacon. Dinner was hearty, with meat and the old woman's own chickens.

The old man and the old woman specially gave up the table, and they were ready to take their grandson to eat on the stove.

Xia Wenjin went to the stove to see that they were eating their usual meals, and there was no chicken or meat at all. Their seven-year-old grandson looked into the hall and was whispered to him by the old woman that it was bought by a guest.

Xia Wenjin said with a smile: "There is a big table of dishes, and the two of us can't eat so much, so it's lively to eat together." Don't eat here, let's go, let's eat together! "How can they be guests and let the host's house have no place to sit?

The old man and the old woman were busy prevaricating, they eat this on weekdays, and today they are very satisfied with the light of the guests, and there is oil and meat in the dish.

Xia Wenjin refused, took the hand of his little grandson Hong'er, and invited them to the table.

The table was full of people, and it suddenly seemed lively.

Hong'er looked at the meat and chicken, and was very happy.

The old couple probably saw that Huangfu Jingchen Xia Wenjin was approachable, although they were taking money to move in, they had no shelves at all, and they were no longer restrained.

The old woman also smiled and said, "You guys are here by coincidence, the river is lively tonight." People from nearby villages gather around the river, especially you young people. You can go and have fun! ”

Huangfu Jingchen was curious: "Why is the riverside lively today?" ”

Xia Wenjin rolled his eyes and said, "Is today the Tangram Festival?" ”

The old woman smiled: "Yes, yes, yes, it's the Tangram Festival." ”

Hong'er said curiously: "Why is the Tangram Festival riverside lively?" It's not usually lively! ”

Xia Wenjin said with a smile: "Because of the Tangram Festival, many people will go to the river to put the river lantern, put their wishes in the river lantern, the farther the river lantern floats, the more the wish can be fulfilled!" ”

"What do you mean by wish?"

"That's what you want!"

"Really?" Hong'er clapped her hands and smiled: "I'm also going to put river lanterns, I want to have meat to eat every day!" ”

The child's childlike words attracted laughter from all over the table, Xia Wenjin sandwiched a large piece of meat for him, and said with a smile: "Hong'er's wish today will come true soon, you see!" ”

Hong'er said happily: "Thank you, brother!" ”

At this time, Xia Wenjin was facing Huangfu Jingchen sideways, and her side face was reflected in his eyes, with a bright smile, clear eyes, and bright eyes. She was smiling at Hong'er, patient and meticulous, her eyes were shining, and her whole person seemed to be glowing.

Huangfu Jingchen unconsciously replaced her appearance in Shi'an Temple's women's clothes, and the smile on the corner of her lips was gentle, and she was a little distracted.

It wasn't until Xia Wenjin patted him that he woke up, Xia Wenjin said, "What about you, are you going?" ”

Huangfu Jingchen said: "Go!" ”

Where Wen Jin wants to go, he wants to go, they only have seven days to get together, and in the future, it may be difficult to see each other. He cherished every minute of these seven days.

The old woman smiled and said: "A few days ago, a platform was built by the river, and there are also people who sell river lanterns, and the young men love to go, and the little girls also love to go, you go and try your luck!" ”

The two understood what the old woman meant by trying their luck.

Presumably, there are many girls by the river who will also go, and the old woman will see the two of them "big and small", or she can go to the river to meet a fate.

Huangfu Jingchen and Xia Wenjin glanced at each other and couldn't help but smile.

However, the laughter of the two is different.

Where would Huangfu Jingchen go to see those girls, he just wanted to accompany Xia Wenjin.

And of course Xia Wenjin won't go to see those girls, she is not a lily!

The old woman sighed: "Our Tangram Festival has been held for many years. Back then, I met the head of the family by the river, and this moment, everyone is old! ”

The two old men looked at each other and smiled, as if they were thinking back to their youth from the youth of Huangfu Jingchen Xia Wenjin.

Xia Wenjin smiled in surprise: "It seems that this river lantern is still the matchmaker of the second elder!" ”

The old woman smiled: "This river lantern is not only our matchmaker, and that river has witnessed more than one pair and two pairs." In the past, the river was called the Sanyu River, and later, it was called the Yuelao River! Seven clever and seven-hearted, if the young man and the little girl look at each other and put a river lantern together, they will definitely be able to come together in this life, for a long time, and be harmonious! ”
