Chapter 279: Orange Lantern Sends Luck
On the morning of August 15, Hu Xianxian first helped Cheng Haofeng comb his hair and change clothes. His hair was visibly thinning, and it took her a long time to tie it evenly into the crown of jade-inlaid purple hibiscus.
She dressed him in a sea blue robe given by Ako in the Sacred Realm of the Sea Bottom, which was woven with fish fin glue and fine threads, and when woven, it was sea-blue. Cheng Haofeng said that he needed to suppress all kinds of strange beasts in the sea in the underwater holy realm that day, and Ah Ko specially asked people to weave this robe to show his dignity.
He didn't want to wear it anymore, but Hu Xianxian said that he still had to be decent when he saw her parents, so he had to reluctantly put them on.
She tied a silver silk inlaid purple jade treasure belt and stepped on the Chaoyang purple cloud boots. She looked at him, and although he was still pale and thin, he looked better under the background of his clothes and makeup.
Hu Xianxian also combed her hair and changed into a green dress. He tilted his head to look at her carefully, and smiled shallowly, "This eye can't see clearly has the same benefit, I see that you are like a bay of blue water flowing slowly in front of my eyes, and the whole heart is cool and comfortable." ”
He rarely praises people, and it is even more rare to praise her, but his praise of people will not make people feel hypocritical and insensitive, but will only make people happy in their hearts.
She walked slowly to his side and snuggled up to his chest, wanting to go on like this. She couldn't imagine that she would be so attached to someone, so attached that she didn't dare to imagine how she would continue her life without him.
He stroked her hair and said that there was a guest coming today, so it was better to prepare refreshments, drinks and dishes earlier. He urged her several times before she straightened up and walked out of the room hand in hand with him.
After the hour, Er Fat and Liang Huifen arrived first with Gao Zhuangzhuang. They brought smoked duck, sauced meat, etc., and after they arrived, they did not sit and drink tea, but helped Hu Xianxian and Du Wanzhi with the food and wine.
Tall and strong grew into a tall and strong young man, Liang Huifen nagged that it was Hu Xianxian who saved him back then, and he was young and ignorant at that time and did not appreciate it. He touched the back of his head and smiled sheepishly.
Liang Huifen kept urging her son to thank "Uncle Cheng, Aunt Hu", Gao Zhuangzhuang blushed, and it took a long time to say: "Thank you Cheng...... Uncle...... Wildly...... Maternal aunt...... Saving. ”
Ma Shuo has been around the North Gate for a long time, and he also knows the tall and strong, and when he saw him like that, he asked him quietly: "Don't you want to thank them?" ”
He replied in a low voice, "No...... The two of them look young, and I'm embarrassed to call them uncles and aunts. ”
The two giggled and said, Liang Huifen thought that the two of them were just talking and laughing, and they couldn't help and get in the way, so they drove the two out of the shed.
Soon after, Liang Huiping came with Kang Wuxi. Kang Wuxian greeted people one by one, and Du Wanzhi hugged him and kissed him when she saw him. Liang Huiping saw that Du Wanzhi really hurt Kang Wuxi, so she asked Du Wanzhi to take Kang Wuzhi to choose medicine with Qin Mufeng, and she went to help Hu Xianxian cook.
Liang Huifen and Liang Huiping were originally cousins, and the two met and talked about many family matters. Liang Huifen said that Kang Wuxian is still well-behaved and cute, and her strength is really worrying. Liang Huiping said that the second fat is down-to-earth and diligent, and her husband Kang Houpu is idle all day long.
The second fat "haha" smiled, "What are you talking about?" That's how life goes, and every family has a scripture that is difficult to read. ”
Hu Xianxian looked at them chatting while busy working, and then looked at Ma Shuo who was surrounding Cheng Haofeng in the courtyard and asked questions, his heart was full of warmth.
When she looked into the courtyard, she saw Mataha come in in a bright light, followed by Manatha, Da Niu, Sanhua, and Plug. Du Chuan and Ma Shuo went up to take the gifts in their hands, and everyone who knew and didn't know each other introduced and greeted each other.
The Yizhuang was even more lively, and Mainessa and Sanhua pounced on Hu Xianxian together, each pulling an arm and laughing affectionately.
Da Niu smiled innocently: "Miss, you all go to the courtyard to rest, I'll cook." ”
The bolt also said: "Yes, you all rest, I'll do it with Brother Da Niu." ”
Hu Xianxian shook his head and said, "Brother Niu, don't call me 'Miss' in the future, just call me by my name." You are guests today, so let's drink tea and chat in the courtyard. She shook her arms again and said to Manatha and Sanhua, "You two let me go, I still have to be busy." ”
As they spoke, Maitaha stood still, his blue eyes full of a gentle smile, and his gaze stayed on Hu Xianxian without moving.
Sanhua refused to go away and stayed in the shed to help. Mainessa refused to leave, but the shed was too small, and she couldn't turn around when there were too many people, so she had to go out.
When Manasha arrived in the courtyard, she pulled her brother who was already looking at her, and Mataha withdrew her gaze in disbelief, and sat down with her sister next to Du Chuan to drink tea together.
Soon after, Ye Saiying knocked on the door to visit. Hu Xianxian hurriedly wiped her greasy hands and went to the door to greet her.
Ye Saiying refused to enter the hospital, and was about to leave after stuffing two boxes of moon cakes to Hu Xianxian. Hu Xianxian said kind words to keep her to eat before leaving, and after she looked around at everyone, she stared at Hu Xianxian again.
Hu Xianxian looked at her suspiciously, and she said to Hu Xianxian: "I didn't give you this moon cake, it was Long Zhenren who said that he couldn't reunite with you in the heavenly court, so he asked me to buy some moon cakes for you." ”
Hu Xianxian understood that it was Long Xiaofeng who wanted her to reunite with her brothers and sisters on his behalf, but there was a high hurdle in her heart, because she could give gifts but couldn't really get along with everyone.
Hu Xianxian understood her feelings and let her go. Just as he was about to turn around, he saw several servants of Qingqiu Country coming. After they put down all kinds of gifts, they visited everyone one by one, and Hu Xianxian took out the moon cakes and asked them to bring them back to Qingqiu Country to give back to Lie Yufeng.
After the servant woman of Qingqiu Country left, Hu Xianxian was busy in the kitchen. At the end of the day, the third uncle, Hu Dacang, Aunt Hu and Mudaner arrived. As soon as Aunt Hu came, she pulled Hu Xianxian and Cheng Haofeng to the corner of the courtyard and looked the two up and down in detail.
Hu Xianxian was uncomfortable with her mother, so she said: "Mother, your eyes are all good, and there will be opportunities to see them in the future, and I am busy at this time." ”
Aunt Hu didn't answer, she still stared at them, and Cheng Haofeng's face turned red. Hu Xianxian looked at his shy little appearance and remembered the words "ugly daughter-in-law is afraid to see her in-laws", his parents have passed away, she can't be an "ugly daughter-in-law", he has become an "ugly son-in-law".
After looking at it for a long time, Aunt Hu sighed in a low voice: "It's very deserted here after night, right?" I brought three lanterns with me, and they would be more popular at night. ”
She asked Cheng Haofeng to accompany the guests first, and then took out the lantern and handed it to Hu Xianxian, "This is an orange lamp, orange has an auspicious meaning, my mother looks forward to you turning evil into good fortune, and staying with him and Meimei until old age." ”
Hu Xianxian was so moved that she choked up, hugged her mother tightly, and couldn't say a thousand words of thanks. Her parents are very kind, and she doesn't know if she can repay her parents in this life.
When lunch was about to start, purple smoke "banged" from the table, and everyone who knew that it was Ma Mingfeng laughed, and those who didn't know were startled.
Ma Mingfeng intoxicated himself and took a long breath of the aroma of wine and food, and then said slowly: "I finally finished all the backlog of official work, but fortunately I didn't miss lunch." ”
