Chapter 108: The Son of Shaofu

Yin Hui ran and pulled Lu Yu to Nantai, stretching his neck to look at the flower god in the crowd.

Lu Yu looked at her funny, and suddenly pinched her waist and hugged her, and Yin Hui suddenly stood out from the crowd.

Yin Hui was a little surprised, stunned,

"Lu Yu!"

Lu Yu smiled,

"Hurry up, you're so heavy, I won't be able to lift it for long."

Yin Hui didn't have time to say much to him, and raised his eyes to look at the god of flowers, but because he was too far away, he couldn't see clearly.

"Lu Yu, let's go to the front and line up to have a look."

Lu Yu put her down, Yin Hui almost leaned on his arms, Lu Yu held her steady with one hand, and said with a smile,

"Okay."

Yin Hui's face was crimson, and he was caught off guard by Lu Yu's eyes, and he bit his lower lip lightly, and the beautiful temperature traveled between the skin that was close to him.

Just in time, the fireworks rose into the sky, and the red and purple reflected on the face.

In the past sixteen years, Fang has no support, and at this moment he is so distressed that he is haunted and compassionate, and fate is determined by heaven.

Yin Hui lowered his head and let Lu Yu lead him through the crowd.

The plum blossom god smiled and said greetings to everyone, and the believers continued to come.

The ceremonial officer released ten egrets, vibrating the egrets in the air, with large wings and short tails, wide and round wings, hovering high in the air.

The purring of the grunt continued.

It is rumored that there is a plum tree in the place where Concubine Mei is buried, and there are often herons perched on it.

So on the heads of the devotees, the egrets swirled as if they were flying around the plum blossom god, waving their wings slowly, and gradually re-entering the water.

The crowd under the waves of the lanterns was even more commotional, and the crowd visited all the way and was blessed by the light.

Finally it was Yin Hui and Lu Yu's turn, but Yin Hui's original intention was just to come forward to see the excitement, and the flower she was holding in her hand before was also squeezed out, she looked at Lu Yu helplessly, not knowing what to do.

After all, the two of them don't have clubs.

The plum blossom god looked at them and chuckled, smiled kindly, and gently waved a fan to lead them forward.

"Come on."

Yin Hui was at a loss, and Lu Yu firmly led Yin Hui forward, bent down respectfully, and handed over the painting fan in his hand.

The pattern engraved on the fan is the plum blossom.

The plum blossom god took Lu Yu's fan, turned it around, and tapped Yin Hui's forehead with the tail of the fan, but asked deliberately,

"What does the girl want to ask for from this seat?"

Yin Hui said nervously,

"Seeking ......"

“… What I ask for is ......"

Lu Yu was unequivocal and said calmly,

"I ask my mother to bless Lu Yu, the eldest son of the thirteenth Lu family in the east of Chang'an City, and Yin Hui, the eldest daughter of the first Yin family in the west of Chang'an City, to be happy with each other and get married as soon as possible."

Yin Hui looked sideways at Lu Yu in surprise.

The plum blossom god stretched his lips and smiled,

"Okay."

"Bless Lu Yu of the Lu family and Yin Hui of the Yin family, grow old together, and be united forever."

The plum blossom god tapped Lu Yu's forehead,

"Love lasts a long time, and both hearts are unswerving."

Lu Yu clenched Yin Hui's hand, turned his fingers into an interlock, and the two of them knelt down.

Lu Yu said loudly,

"Thank you for your blessings."

Yin Hui took the painting fan from the hand of the plum blossom god with sincere fear.

Lu Yu pulled her back into the crowd.

Yin Hui's footsteps stopped, but he didn't dare to look directly at Lu Yu,

"What do you mean by what you just said?"

Lu Yu suddenly leaned down to look at her, and the extremely close distance made the breath entangled.

She could see every one of his eyelashes, his tiny fluffy hair, and the boy's fearless, clear, aggressive eyes.

Lu Yu looked at her and said with a light smile,

"Yin Hui, if I come to the door to propose, you will be happy."

Yin Hui looked at him, his pupils dilated unconsciously.

Lu Yu straightened up, clenched her hand, and led her away with a light smile as if he had never said anything about Fang Cai.

Yin Hui's mind kept echoing the words of Fang Cai Lu Yu.

Neither noticed that the two of them held hands together and never separated.

There are very high lampposts hanging from the streets along the way, and there are long strings of curtains, and eleven or twelve-year-old boys carrying lanterns hanging all over their backs to sell them to passers-by.

"Ten cents a piece, a wishing lantern."

"It's very spiritual, last year a sister bought it and hung it on the lamppost to pray for good fate, and I think this year they are all holding their children."

"Let's take a look."

"Wishing lantern, Moon Niang bless."

"Wishing lanterns, 10 cents each"

"Let's take a look, let's take a look, one out of ten."

Yin Hui saw that the child's clothes were full of patches, and he felt pity, and grabbed Lu Yu,

"Let's buy a lantern."

Lu Yu stopped,

"You want to make a wish?"

Yin Hui shook his head,

"At such a young age, he has to be forced to make a living, and he wants to be able to help a little bit, and although it is not useful to buy a lantern, it is harmless."

Lu Yu only glanced at the little boy and said,

"You only buy a lantern, even the most expensive one won't help him much."

Having said that, Lu Yu walked up to the little boy and took out a piece of silver.

"Give me a lantern."

When the little boy saw Lu Yu take out a whole ingot of silver, his eyes were straight,

"May I ask which one Childe wants?"

Lu Yu put the silver on the tray that the little boy was holding,

"Nature is the most expensive and best one."

The little boy hurriedly took down the one hanging highest on the shelf behind him and handed it to Lu Yu.

But Lu Yu didn't reach out to pick it up, and casually opened the fan to fan the wind.

"How much money can you earn selling lanterns on this day?"

The boy scratched his head and smiled generously, but he didn't hide it,

"Only the flower god tour street and Mid-Autumn Festival night, Shangyuan Festival, Qixi energy-saving sales out, usually no one buys when the stall is set up, when the festival is good, you can earn more than one or two a day, and when you are bad, you can also earn half a tael of silver, and save some enough to eat and drink at home for a month."

Lu Yu used the tail of the fan to pick up the rope handle of the lantern,

"The lights are doing a good job."

"Baijulou often uses lamps as the dome, almost a month later, it will be changed, in addition, Qingfeng Pavilion, Invite Moon Pavilion, and even Qiluo Pavilion are often changed lanterns, you These lanterns are often changed in the eyes of ordinary people, they are also added to the festival, and they are placed in the wine shop tea house, Qinlou Chu Pavilion, and the place of fireworks, but they are inseparable from it every day."

The little boy was stunned, and looked at Lu Yu with dark pupils.

LU Yudao,

"You sell lanterns on the street, so you might as well go and sell them in those welcoming places."

The little boy hesitated,

"Those lamps are made by the masters, I'm afraid they don't want them."

"I'm just a wild roadman, and it's good to make a few dollars to make a living. Childe thinks too highly of me. ”

Lu Yu smiled,

"When the early summer comes, the lanterns are replaced in batches when the seasons change, and there are no workshops in the city that specialize in making lanterns in batches, and they are all looking for private individuals."

"Because you are in a hurry to use, those masters have no time to do it, so they can't be replaced in time, if you take the lanterns you made and immediately find the door, the price is one of the ten of the masters, quickly make up for the ones that the master has not been able to do, so that the squatter hall can be replaced quickly, not to mention that it is not as good as the master, even if it can only be half of it, as long as there is no problem at first glance, those squatter halls will directly want."

Lu Yu explained to a child who had nothing to do with it, without any impatience, and his head was the way, and his gas posture was calm and there was no sense of superiority.

Yin Hui looked at him and was unconsciously stunned.

Lu Yu held the lantern and looked at it with half-flirted eyelids,

"The lantern is really good, with this ability, find those masters to learn a teacher, and there will naturally be more roads."

"I don't need to look for this silver, I don't like to carry broken silver."

Lu Yu took Yin Hui by the hand,

"Gone."

Yin Hui woke up like a dream,

"Oh."

The little boy stood in place, as if he was still digesting what Lu Yu had just said, and after a while, Lu Yu and Yin Hui heard his loud shouting again.

YIN Huidao,

"I didn't expect you to know about buying and selling, and you also know that there is no workshop in the city that specializes in ornamental lanterns."

Lu Yu smiled,

"Last year's palace banquet, it was still my father's gift list, but the director of the lamp making suddenly caused trouble and went to prison, and there were no apprentices, no sons and daughters who inherited the craft."

"At that time, my father was in a hurry, and finally I took Wei Wei together and bought the decorative lanterns of most of the teahouses and restaurants in Chang'an City at a high price, saying that I was buying, but in fact, I was famous, and I took the palace guards, no one dared not sell them to me. I'm afraid I'll make trouble. ”

Yin Hui's eyes moved to Lu Yu.

Lu Yu's expression was not displeased, as if he was saying something funny about someone else,

"It was also at that time that I found out that even the palace rarely paid attention to this little lantern."

"There are workshops to make serious lanterns, but most of them can't connect the lanterns, the lanterns pay attention to fine workmanship, they look good, they will transfer to fly, and there are combined organs, the spikes are complicated, and most of the places where the lanterns are generally used have specific master orders, once the master has a problem, it is difficult to continue, this is a trouble."

"After I found out, I found a few children who sold lanterns on weekdays in Chang'an, gave them money, and let them learn art under the master, these children are young and learn things quickly, but they don't have the idea of doing business, and they don't know that with a master, they inherit not only skills, but also contacts and sales."

"It's better to give him a fish than to give him a fish, you buy a lantern and he won't make much money, but give him a way out, and he may be able to eat enough for the rest of his life."

Yin Hui understood at the moment and asked,

"Then you find someone to learn from the master, and in the future, you want to send them to the palace to make lamps in case this happens again in the future?"

Lu Yu was holding the lantern with the folding fan in one hand, and holding her with the other.

"It's a lot of loss to be sent to the palace, and I lost my head the day I can't keep it."

Yin Hui was puzzled,

"And who are?"

Lu Yu walked slowly, taking care of her steps,

"Naturally, there is a shortage of water and water, a shortage of grain to grow grain, there is no workshop in the city to make lanterns, then I will set up one, if the palace wants, I will talk to the workshop, and there is no need for those children to go into the palace in the future to worry about work, but also to take on folk things to do. Whether there is a big feast or not, you can't go hungry. ”

"My original intention was to hope that my father would worry less about these trivial things, and it would be a good act to help these children from poor families. Shaofu holds wealth, and what he holds is his own life, but any slight mistake is enough to fill his own pocket, and he must accumulate virtue first. ”
