The four of them talked in the living room for a while, Xia Zixi gave Xia Zitang a look, and the two lied that they went out to get something, leaving Shao Yi and Xia Yanqing time alone for a while.

It was at this time that Xia Yanqing was waiting, as soon as the two brothers left, Xia Yanqing gave Xinxiu a look.

Xinxiu understood, pulled Qiluo, who was on duty today, and lay on the windowsill of the living room with her, looking at the red lantern hanging under the eaves through the glass, and whispering about the patterns on the lanterns.

Xia Yanqing also lowered his voice and asked, "The stampede you mentioned, the location is not mistaken, right?" Is it possible that it is not Changshun Street, but Changping Street? ”

"I'm not mistaken, how can I be wrong about such a big thing? How do you remember to ask this? Shao Yi asked.

"I'm not mistaken. Isn't this my grandmother suddenly beckoning us to spend fifteen together? I suddenly remembered the stampede you said, if we had to go to Shangpinju to say hello before and after looking at the lights, is it possible that at this time, we were catching up with the congestion stampede? ”

Shao Yi thought back and said with certainty: "It must be Changshun Street." If we don't go there, you don't have to worry about a stampede on the 15th. I will tell the people on duty in the Soldiers and Horses Division to pay more attention to that side. There are also the officials of Shuntianfu, and during the three-day lantern festival, the yamen will also send people to patrol various streets and alleys. Remind them to evacuate the crowd in time and not let people gather too much. Don't worry, it's okay. ”

Mo Hong also returned, although it was not good to arrange for the Shao family guards to monitor everywhere. But it's okay to keep an eye on the streets they'll be coming and about. Prevention is better than prevention, so many people are watching, even if any lantern bursts and ignites, it can respond in time.

Xia Yanqing nodded: "Okay, if the arrangement is so thoughtful, accidents should be avoided." ”

"Of course." Shao Yi felt quite interested, and then asked, "At the temple fair on the eighth day of the first lunar month, do you want to mention it with the second brother and the fourth brother, let's go shopping together?" ”

Xia Yanqing was very interested, and agreed: "Okay, I heard that there are a lot of gadgets and snacks at the temple fair." ”

Due to her status, she hasn't eaten much of the snacks on the stall. Usually, the most local food is not in a big hotel or hotel.

The snacks with the strongest local characteristics are those street stalls that are not up to the grade, and places like temple fairs are the most able to gather this kind of small snacks.

Based on the experience of the previous life, Shao Yi had long known that Xia Yanqing must be interested, and said happily: "Okay, the second brother and the fourth brother will come back in a while, let's discuss it well." ”

There is a difference between men and women, Xia Yanqing and Shao Yi are not married, and Xia Zixi and his brothers did not dare to leave them too long to spend alone together.

It was about two teas, and the two returned, along with Xia Han and Xia Xi, who were holding the two exquisite ice monkeys that Shao Yi gave them, and the ice monkeys were carved with the patterns of Feng Hou and Peng Cheng Wanli.

The four of them took the two children to the backyard, and smoked ice monkeys and ice carts on the ice of a small pond, and played for a while, which made the two children very happy.

Near noon, because of the Chinese New Year, he couldn't leave his widowed mother at home, Shao Yi didn't eat at Xia's house, and asked for his farewell before lunch.

Mrs. Jiang and Xia Ke also thought of this, but did not keep it, brought him a prepared return gift, and the two cousins sent him out.

Shao Yi was extremely satisfied with this trip, although he didn't get along with Xia Yanqing alone for a long time, but the Xia family didn't let the two of them avoid meeting, which means that he is very satisfied and optimistic.

Later, he and the Xia family brothers and sisters took their nephews and nieces for a long time, and they got along like a family for a long time, which was very warm.

The return gift also surprised him, the Xia family's return gift also did not have very valuable items, they were all home-cooked food, just like the two families who often came and went.

But the things in a small box that come with it are not valuable. Inside the box are six tea cups with handles, the glass of the tea cup is very clear, and the glass is sandwiched with a gold silk pattern of longevity like a mountain.

This is Xia Yanqing's words, and she specially asked people to make it for Shao's mother to use.

If he takes this back, his mother must be happy for a long time.

Just as they planned, on the eighth day of the new year, the Xia family brothers and sisters and Shao Yi took Xia Han and Xia Xi to the temple fair, went shopping for a long time, and returned home after noon.

There were a lot of small items and snacks at the temple fair, and Xia Yanqing and the two children all had a round stomach.

Small objects, Xia Yanqing just looked at them and didn't buy more. In her previous life, she had traveled through many tourist attractions, and she knew that those dazzling, but poor practicality, and things that did not have much ornamental value, were really burdensome when they were bought.

Under her guidance, the two children also picked out two favorite toys, and the others that looked rare and useless also gave up.

Time passed day by day, and in a blink of an eye, it was the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, Xia Han and Xia Xi heard that they were going to see the lights on the night of the fifteenth day of this year, and they had been looking forward to this day for a long time. The two children didn't even have a good lunch and dinner, just waiting to go out in the evening to see the prosperous feast.
