Chapter 152: Lantern Festival (Plus Asking for Pink Tickets)
"yes!" Fu Tingyun replied with a smile, "Let's go to West Street to see the lights." As she spoke, she suddenly thought that these rìzi Asen had been living in the outer courtyard and had never walked around her house, could it be that she had officially married in, and he was a little unaccustomed to it? Fu Tingyun thought about it and asked him softly, "Do you want to go to see the lights with us?" ”
Ah Sen's eyes lit up, and then he quickly glanced at Zhao Ling, and muttered, "I, I don't want to go?" ”
Why do you listen to some insincere taste?
Fu Tingyun looked at Zhao Ling.
I saw Zhao Ling standing there with his hands behind his back with a cold face, no different from usual.
She smiled and said to Asen, "What's wrong with you?" When I talk, I slurred and slurred, but it was the same as I was divided.
"No, no." Ah Sen hurriedly said, "I didn't have a relationship with my sister-in-law. His eyes rolled bonely, "I, I want my sister-in-law to bring me some of Chen Fu Ji's wosi candy when she comes back?" I'll go to West Street with Brother Zheng and them tomorrow to see the lights. ”
Fu Tingyun touched his hand and said with a smile: "Don't worry, I will definitely bring you back when I come back." ”
Ah Sen nodded with a smile, his big bright eyes were bent like crescent moons, and his cheerful and self-contained appearance returned to him.
Zhao Ling helped Fu Tingyun into the carriage.
Fu Tingyun immediately pulled Zhao Ling's sleeve: "What did you say to Ah Sen?" ”
"I don't understand what you mean." Zhao Ling looked incomprehensible, "When did I say something to Ah Sen?" ”
"You still don't admit it." Fu Tingyun glared at him, "Otherwise, why would that kid look at your eyes when he speaks?" Tell me, what did you say to that kid? ”
"I really didn't say anything." Zhao Ling refused to admit it, and said in her ear, "I've been with you every day for the past few days, where can I care about other things." You can't wronged me. A thunderous and warm tone.
Fu Tingyun was not fooled, and said: "I know what I have done, and if you don't admit it, I won't pursue it anymore." However, he's your brother now, so don't treat him like a little bite. Still hobby, when you return to the palace after the leave, inquire carefully, Ah Sen is not small, it is not a matter to always follow me, you have to find a gentleman to enlighten well, do not expect him to be a jinshi, but how to be a student, even if it is to do business and farming, he will also have a little confidence. ”
"Got it." Zhao Ling said a little discouraged, "I'll ask Mr. Ku." ”
Fu Tingyun pursed his lips and smiled.
Zhao Ling probably wanted to be alone with him, so he gave birth to these things.
She kissed Zhao Ling lightly on the cheek and said shyly, "Let's go and see the lanterns." ”
Zhao Ling was immediately regained by this kiss, his spirits perked up, and he hugged Fu Tingyun in his arms.
Fu Tingyun hurriedly said: "We're going to see the lanterns later, if you ruin my makeup, and I'm being pointed at because of this, I won't go out with you again." ”
Zhao Ling smiled wryly, and really just hugged her obediently.
Fu Tingyun was still a little uneasy in his heart, so he lifted the curtain of the car and looked out, and pointed to the archway on the side of the road: "Where is this?" ”
Zhao Ling originally took her out to play, and she was interested in seeing her. Naturally, she was happy to answer for her, so she leaned in front of the car window to take a look at it and said, "This is the Shuangnian Street archway." ”
Seeing Zhao Ling's simple answer, the driver couldn't help but say: "Mrs. doesn't know, this Shuangnian Street is connected to Chaoyangmen Avenue, so an archway has been erected here, to the east, it is Chaoyangmen Avenue, and to the west, it is Shuangdian Street." Speaking of Shuangnian Street, there is a typical. It is said that there was a family surnamed Chen in the previous dynasty, and gave birth to two sons, the big one is called Da Nian, and the small one is called Xiao Nian...... "The car is very eloquent, like a storyteller, and Fu Tingyun listened to it with relish, not to ask two sentences, the coachman talked more interestingly, along the way, after talking about Da Nian Street, explaining Zhaofang, after talking about Mingzhaofang, saying Anle Tang, plus the humor of the words, Fu Tingyun laughed, and asked Zhao Ling from time to time: "Did you hear it?" ”
Zhao Ling smiled and nodded, "I heard it."
Fu Tingyun would listen to the coachman again.
Zhao Ling looked at Fu Tingyun's face that was flushed because of laughter, and only felt very happy in his heart.
can make Ah Yun so happy, and his life will be complete!
In the distance, you can already see the fire trees and silver flowers on West Street.
The coachman parked the car on the side of the road and said with a smile: "Master, madam, I can't walk anymore, so I can only bother you to go in and have a look." ”
Zhao Ling helped Fu Tingyun get out of the carriage, piled up with various lanterns, the bright lantern tower that is higher than the Penglai Pavilion, the colorful fireworks that explode in the summer sky from time to time, dressed brightly, laughing and walking past them in groups of men, women and children, although they have not yet entered the West Street, but the bustle and hustle and bustle of the Kyoto Lantern Market, the grandeur and grandeur can be glimpsed.
Fu Tingyun was excited.
Zhao Ling had already taken Fu Tingyun's hand: "Follow me, be careful not to get lost." ”
"Hmm!" Fu Tingyun couldn't stop nodding.
Rabbit lamps made of pretty gauze paste, horse lanterns made of horseskin, octagonal lamps made of glass, and beaded lamps made of white silk...... made Fu Tingyun, who was crowded in the crowd, dizzy.
Fried pork ears wrapped in oiled paper suddenly appeared in front of me.
"Here, even eat and watch." Zhao Ling looked at her with a smile and said, "What kind of lamp do you like?" We'll buy one later. "They are no better than when they were in Zhangye.
Since I bought this house, I am married, and I have to support a large family, Zhao Ling was single in the past, but now he has become a family, and there are still some necessary entertainment and favorites, and it is one to save one!
Fu Tingyun shook his head: "I'll tell you when I like it." ”
Zhao Ling didn't doubt that he liked him, nodded with a smile, raised his eyes and saw a stall selling hawthorn water that was full of people, and said with a smile: "You stand here and don't move, I'll buy you a cup of hawthorn water." Without waiting for Fu Tingyun to deal with it, he squeezed to the front of the stall.
Fu Tingyun stood there with a smile, and suddenly felt that the noisy crowd and crowded streets were so cute in her eyes.
When Zhao Ling bought hawthorn water and came out, she pulled Zhao Ling to a stall selling small ornaments, and bought a peach hairpin for a man and gave it to Zhao Ling: "Although it is cheap, it can mean good, the workmanship is simple and natural, with the taste of great wisdom and clumsiness." ”
Peach wood has the meaning of warding off evil.
Zhao Ling lowered his head: "You give me a hairpin." ”
Fu Tingyun inserted the bamboo hairpin on his head and inserted the peach hairpin.
Zhao Ling took her hand: "Let's go, I see a stall guessing lantern riddles, see me win a lantern for you." ”
Fu Tingyun's eyebrows were rippling with a smile at the corners of his eyes, and he followed Zhao Ling to the stall.
It really allowed Zhao Ling to win a melon-shaped lamp painted on white silk with the four gentlemen among the flowers.
"We'll be able to hang on to the head of the bed then." Fu Tingyun was overjoyed and carried it carefully, for fear of being squeezed by the crowd.
The two talked and laughed like this, stopped and stopped, ate and drank, and played until Fu Tingyun yawned, and Zhao Ling dragged Fu Tingyun out of West Street.
When I got to the parking place, I didn't see the driver.
The two searched for a long time, but they couldn't find it.
Zhao Ling saw Fu Tingyun yawn a few more times, and complained about the car in his heart, and said, "I have to talk to the shopkeeper of the car dealership tomorrow, how can I deduct half of his salary." ”
West Street was still overcrowded, and the coachman probably didn't expect them to come out so soon and go to see the excitement.
"I think it's okay to deduct wages." Fu Tingyun smiled, with a slight cunning in his eyes, "Why don't we go back?" Wouldn't it be better to make that car bigger and easier to find when the time comes? As he spoke, he remembered that the coachman was frustrated that he couldn't find them, and he couldn't help but laugh.
Zhao Ling was happy when he saw her, so he naturally relied on her.
In case Ah Yun is tired of walking, just call a car.
He thought, and with the help of the light in Fu Tingyun's hand, the two walked back slowly.
Fu Tingyun talked about the Lantern Festival when he was a child: "......, there were relatives whose children were lost, Xiuzhu carried me, Zhou Sheng carried his fifth cousin, Huaisheng carried his sixth cousin, and the family nurse surrounded us in the middle. At that time, my fifth cousin laughed at me, saying that it was just that all the shops on the street were hung with lanterns on the orders of my parents, and my eyes were straight. When I arrived in Xi'an, I saw the lanterns on the street, and I didn't even have to salivate. She said, revealing the joy of her memories, "I didn't expect that when I grew up, I would live in Kyoto and be lucky enough to see the lanterns in Kyoto!" ”
Zhao Ling looked at her with a smile on his face.
Fu Tingyun asked him: "Is the lantern festival in Jiangnan the same as this?" ”
"It's different." Zhao Ling said softly, "Although every household will also hang lanterns, large families will also invest in building a lantern building, but most of them are built by the lake, the lantern tower in the lake and the lamp tower on the shore reflect each other, under the starlight in the sky, there are stars everywhere, although it is beautiful, but it looks graceful, unlike Kyoto, the street is spacious, the whole street is full of lanterns, there is a lamp tower every few steps, magnificent, it looks atmospheric." ”
"After all, Kyoto is an imperial city, at the foot of the world, and the capital of Gyeonggi." Fu Tingyun nodded, thinking that Zhao Ling didn't like Jiangnan very much, and asked Shuoping Mansion again, "Will you also do lanterns after August 15?" ”
"Shuoping is poor, and my father did not hold a lantern festival when he was in office." Zhao Ling said, "But there is a kind of moon cake filled with sugar, and the locals will store it in the jar, and when it comes to the Chinese New Year, they will take it out as a gift box to go to relatives." ”
"What other customs do you have in Shuoping?" Fu Tingyun was interested.
"You make me think." Zhao Ling smiled, "It's been too long, and I don't remember it very clearly......."
Although the carriage passed by on the road, they were all sitting, and the two chatted while walking, and saw the archway of Shuangnian Street.
Fu Tingyun couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief.
Zhao Ling was shocked by his negligence and hurriedly said, "Tired, right?" Do you want to take a break and go again? ”
"No need." Fu Tingyun shook his head, "Just turn a corner and you'll be there." As he spoke, he quickened his legs and walked up the street, his feet were a little soft, and the lantern in his hand shook, and the candlelight at the end of the crossbow shook a few times in the wind, turning into a wisp of green smoke, and the surroundings were darkened.
"It's really a house leak that happens to be rainy." She couldn't help muttering, but Zhao Ling heard it clearly.
He thought about it, suddenly took a few steps forward, and half-squatted in front of Fu Tingyun: "Come, I'll carry you." ”
