Chapter 101: Lantern Festival
Halfway through the first month, it is the Lantern Festival.
After dinner, Uncle Zheng stepped forward and said: "I don't know what the custom of the Lantern Festival in the West Dome is, so I asked them to prepare dinner according to the tradition of our tomb, I don't know if the princess can use it smoothly?" ”
"Those eight-treasure balls are soft and glutinous and sweet, you just see that I have eaten the whole bowl, I like it very much." Mu Yunyi stood up and said, "It's just that I ate too much, and now I feel a little bloated, so ask them to bring a cup of tea." ”
"Come on, serve tea, remember to make it stronger!" Uncle Zheng instructed the maidservants on the side, and then followed Mu Yunyi to the front hall.
"Princess, although that ball is delicious, it is also the most difficult to restrain it."
At this time, Mu Xiu walked in from behind, and Uncle Zheng continued quietly: "Why don't you go out for a walk with Master Xiu, and take a look at the Lantern Festival in our Shangling City, it is also very lively." ”
Mu Xiu looked at Mu Yunyi, waiting for her meaning, and Bi Ying on the side spoke: "Yes, yes, princess, I can hear the jubilation outside before it gets dark, let's go and take a look." ”
Mu Yunyi thought that Meng Li came back early this morning to give Yun Duo an injection, so that he could sleep peacefully during the Lantern Festival and not suffer from "waking up", and now there was indeed nothing else to do in the house, so he said, "Okay, go out and have a look." ”
Bi Ying saw that Mu Yunyi agreed, and happily brought her a big coat and warm sleeves to put on, and was about to go out with her, but who wanted to be pulled back by Uncle Zheng.
"What are you going to do with this little girl, I didn't see that the house is so busy, it's enough for the master to accompany the princess, you stay and accompany me to inventory the unused items in the Spring Festival."
Bi Ying pursed her lips and said dissatisfiedly: "Uncle Zheng, who can't do the inventory, I have to go to the inventory with you!" ”
Zheng Bo saw that Bi Ying didn't open her mind, and winked at her, and then she understood, so she said: "Okay, okay, I'll go with you, lest you have bad eyes and bad memory." ”
"Yes, yes, you do things the most carefully."
Mu Yunyi ignored the "ulterior motives" between Bi Ying and Zheng Bo, and saw that Bi Ying was not going, so she went out with Mu Xiu.
"Princess, then be careful......" Bi Ying stood at the door of the mansion, thinking about the excitement of the lantern festival, still a little reluctant.
"Okay, I'll see a good snack and buy it for you."
"I know that the princess loves the slave the most!" Bi Ying was satisfied with Zheng Bo and sent Mu Yunyi and Mu Xiu away.
As soon as Fang walked out of Yuanjin Lane, he could already see the bustling crowd heading towards Fengming Street. Fengming Street is the main market street of Shangling City, and it is said that the largest Aoshan Mountain of the Lantern Festival every year is also located in the center of Fengming Street, which is magnificent.
"I never watched the Lantern Festival when I was in the West Dome, but I didn't expect to have the opportunity to come and see it in Dongzhao."
Mu Yunyi was raised in the palace when he was a child, and he couldn't go out of the palace at will, and he always longed for it every time he heard other official ladies and sons talk about the grand scene of "there are no cars and horses during the Lantern Festival, and the red yarn is full of trees". Later, after returning to Prince Shun's mansion, he also practiced more in the military camp, less in the city mansion, and over time, his longing for the Lantern Festival gradually faded.
Entering Fengming Street, I saw that the lights were full of lights, Ambilight, old women and children, crowded with people, so lively. Mu Yunyi walked along the road, while looking at the vendors on both sides who were shouting hard, the lanterns, the candy makers, the sugar gourds and the pictures, although she was no longer as curious about everything as a child, but she was still happy to see this scene.
Mu Xiu was silent all the way, only looking at her crimson side face and fiery red eyes.
"There are lotus lanterns on the lake." Walked to a stone arch bridge and watched a few lotus lanterns float from afar.
"If you like, let's go to the shore and see." Mu Xiu looked at the direction where the lotus lantern was coming.
The lake reflected the lights on the lotus, Mu Yunyi longed for it for a while, so he nodded, and the two walked through the flow of people together and walked off the bridge.
During the Lantern Festival, Su Yan also took Su Wu out of the door.
"When I was a child, I was looking forward to the day of the Lantern Festival, and after the first day of the new year, I counted the days and waited for the Lantern Festival for me to take you out to play, do you remember?"
"Of course I remember, Fengming Street is the most lively Lantern Festival every year, you always brought me here to play when I was a child, as well as the prince's brother and ......" The name that was just about to blurt out was swallowed back by Su Wu immediately.
"Brother, Aoshan is not in this direction, where are we going?"
"There are a lot of people in Aoshan now, why don't you go and see something else first."
The two hugged the crowd, and after walking for a while, Su Yan stopped.
"This is it."
Su Wu saw that five or six high shelves in front of her were staggered with colorful lanterns, and strips of cloth hung under each lantern.
"Guess the lantern riddle?"
"Exactly." Su Yan smiled: "The lantern riddles that come out of this store every year, the riddles and riddles are quite interesting, so I want to take you to take a look, if you guess it, you will win a good prize, otherwise, it is also good to loosen and loosen your mind." ”
Su Wu didn't doubt that there was him, the chicken, duck and fish meat these days had indeed eaten people, so she grabbed a strip of cloth casually and read it, completely ignoring that Su Yan was still quietly leaving behind her.
After looking through a few lantern riddles, Su Wu found that in addition to the chic lanterns, there was nothing special about the lantern riddles, but they were all used to guessing when she was a child.
"Brother, where did you say the interesting riddle?" Su Yan turned around, but found that there was no Su Yan behind her.
"Brother? Where are you? She looked around as if she were alone in the lantern bush.
Suddenly she heard a noise behind her, and when she looked back, there seemed to be a figure in the depths of the lantern pile.
"Brother, is that you?"
The man responded, Su Wan thought that her brother was playing tricks on herself again? So she turned off the lantern in front of her and slowly approached, but when she saw the person's face clearly, she was stunned in place, never expecting that he would be here-Sikong Shaoyang.
Sikong Shaoyang stepped forward and called softly: "Sister." ”
"You ......" Su Wan subconsciously took a step back, "Brother, he ......"
Since returning to Shangling City, I have endured not to see him for so long, not to think about him, I thought that I could gradually reduce my affection for him, but I didn't expect him to appear in front of him like this, close at hand, everything fell short, and it turned out that that kind of longing could not be reduced at all.
"It's me who asked Su Yan to help me, I can't help it, if I don't do this, I won't even have a chance to say a word to you." Sikong Shaoyang finally saw Su Wan, and he couldn't help himself with excitement, he had a thousand words to confide in her, but now he didn't know where to start.
"Girl, are you okay these days?"
"I'm fine, I'm worried about the Commander-in-Chief."
"Lord Commander?" Sikong Shaoyang's heart, like a piece of hot iron, was suddenly extinguished, "Between us, when was it born to this point, how did you use such words in the past......"
