The Chinese New Year's Eve was a lively reunion, and the whole family ate and drank happily. When I have nothing to do, I eat some melon seeds and snacks, talk about some parents' shortcomings, and coax the children at home, but I am happy.

Because Cui'er's belly is big, and the month is almost nine months, it is the time when the melon is about to ripen, and she is afraid that the tire gas will give birth in advance, so it is not easy to go out.

was supposed to go to the Dingguo Mansion to pay New Year's greetings, but it was also carefully exempted by the considerate Mrs. Dingguo Gongzi, and specially let the big girl and the little tiger two, and came to the Ye Mansion on the second day of the Lunar New Year to visit their godfather.

The big girl and the little tiger arrived in the house, and they also brought a lot of gifts for the New Year. There were two children here who prepared it themselves, and Mrs. Wen Xiu prepared it to thank Cui'er for her help.

After the two children arrived home, they naturally had a close relationship with Cui'er for a while, as if they had endless intimate words. After eating, I took the soft bag, and the two children who I had newly met, Shishi and Shishu, played together.

The eldest girl is a sister, and she chats with Huiya very much, Xiaohu's age is similar to Shishi and Shishu, they are all innocent and lively, and they can also speak. Coupled with the innocent and cute softness and small bags, these brothers and sisters have a good time, giggling in the wing, and their laughter can be heard from afar.

After the fifth day of the new year, the taste of this year is still strong, but this meal is less of the Chinese New Year's Eve of the mountain and sea delicacies, but more focused on the light taste. It's not that I can't afford to eat the delicacies of the mountains and seas, but I eat too much of this greasy thing, and I really can't eat it.

Especially Cui'er is going to give birth to a child, in order to prevent the fetus from being too big, Cui'er has begun to control her diet, which is too greasy. If the fat or protein content is too high, I dare not eat more. Even bone broth for calcium supplementation and the like should not be drunk too much, because if the placenta calcifications too quickly in the late stages of pregnancy, it may be premature.

The family's food is so slowly lightened, but the food is light, but the atmosphere of the New Year is not light at all. On the contrary, it became more and more lively because of the approach of the fifteenth day of the first lunar month.

"Mother. There are lanterns on the fifteenth day of the first month of the first month on Dengshikou Street, so why don't you go with your father to see the lights lively? Cui'er held her stomach and held a small snack in her hand. Gnawing and grinding his teeth. Thinking about the upcoming fifteenth day of the first lunar month, I love and hate, I have a big belly now, and I have to walk slowly every day. Where else can I go to the crowded light market to watch the excitement?

As soon as I talked about the lamp market, the eyes of the ladies in the house lit up. They all looked at Mrs. Ye with infinite anticipation. If Mrs. Ye went to enjoy the lanterns, then it would be logical for them juniors to follow.

Especially Cui'er's second sister-in-law, who is the age of fun. His eyes flickered and he looked at his mother-in-law, looking forward to it.

"I'm so old, what kind of light market do I go to? It's not the time to be young again. Mrs. Ye said with a smile, because her children were all around. The face is very good, and it looks very moist. It's not that she didn't see the expectant eyes of her daughters-in-law, but Mrs. Ye suddenly became naughty, and she wanted to tease them at this time.

"Mother, you are not old at all, if you go out, people will definitely treat us as sisters!" Cui'er took her mother's arm and said coquettishly. Looking at the looks of anticipation on the faces of the sisters-in-law, although I can't go, it doesn't prevent my sister-in-law and children from fighting for a welfare, right?

"You girl, your mouth is sweeter than honey, you want to coax me to be happy and let you out?" Cui'er's coquettish little appearance looks in Mrs. Ye's eyes, just like Cui'er looks soft, what kind of mind is a look. Mrs. Ye stretched out her hand and patted the back of Cui'er's hand, "It's not that my mother doesn't hurt you, you have such a big belly, but you can't go anywhere, if you squeeze it outside, you give birth to a child in advance, but you have to suffer a loss!" ”

"Mother...... Isn't it okay if I don't go? You see my brother and sister-in-law, they have just come to the capital for the New Year, why don't you let them go out for a walk? Cui'er knew that her mother was hurting herself, so she leaned her cheek on her mother's shoulder and rubbed it, and said with the coquettishness of a little daughter.

"You girl, do you still have to talk around when you talk to your mother?" Mrs. Ye gently patted Cui'er's face and turned her head to her daughter-in-law's side, "Are you willing to go out for a walk?" ”

"It's all up to your mother!" Xiao Xia and Xiao Zhao are both in their early twenties, and they are delicate girls who live a worry-free life. It's just that he still has to be more reserved in front of his mother-in-law, so he only smiled and saluted Mrs. Ye, and didn't directly say that he wanted to go.

"Okay, then the mother will be the master, this lantern appreciation, you two little couples, you can bring the green child to go, if Huiya is willing, she will follow. But Cui'er has a big belly, and Shi'er, Shu'er, Soft and Xiaobao are still young, so don't go. Mrs. Ye said finally.

"Thank you, mother! Thank you sister! "When Xiao Xia and Xiao Zhao were in Huxi in previous years, they also wanted to go out to see the lights, but Mrs. Ye was not as happy as she promised today, this Cui'er is indispensable, the two naturally knew, so they even thanked Cui'er.

"The two sisters-in-law have tormented me, Cui'er hasn't done anything!" Cui'er hid behind her mother with a smile and winked her eyes jokingly, "If the sisters-in-law feel that they can't leave Cui'er in the house, can you help me bring two lanterns back?" ”

"Naturally, no problem, what does my sister like, I'll bring it back to you when the time comes!" Xiao Xia and Xiao Zhao are full of promises, and after getting married, they can still go to enjoy the lanterns with their father-in-law, which is a good thing that will wake up with a smile in a dream.

On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the Ye family's dinner was much earlier. After eating, regardless of the slightly gloomy weather, it seemed that snowflakes would fall soon, and the young masters of the Ye Mansion were ready to set off in good spirits.

Here, naturally, Cui'er is not included.

Cui'er leaned in front of Lian Qingshan with her stomach in her arms, and watched her brothers and sisters-in-law walk out with a smile on their faces, only to feel that her heart was sour and uncomfortable.

"They can all go and play, just leave me at home......" Cui'er, who has always understood righteousness, actually pouted and said with a little dissatisfaction.

"Cui'er, won't I accompany you as a good father-in-law?" Lian Qingshan was unhappy knowing that Cui'er couldn't leave the house, "Let's go, I let people build a fire in the yard, we can't go out to enjoy the lanterns, I'll give you a barbecue in the yard, okay?" ”

"That's pretty much it!" Cui'er thought about it, nodded, finally showed a little smile on her face, and held hands with Lian Qingshan, and slowly walked into the courtyard.

Let's say that the young masters of this Ye Mansion, after taking the carriage to the entrance of the lamp market, went down to the ground and walked by themselves. At this time, it was not yet dark, and there were already a lot of small stalls next to the entrance of the lamp market, although it was not a precious thing, but it made the Yefu women who had not seen much of the customs of the capital very happy.

The people who came out this time were Ye Qing and Ye Bi, a husband and wife, who brought Ye Lu and Hui Ya. She didn't want to come out, but Cui'er persuaded her to come out and have fun when she was young, so she came out with the mentality of getting a few more lanterns for Cui'er.

Huiya is not good at disturbing other couples one by one, so she obediently follows her little uncle Ye Lu, who jumps up and down. Fortunately, although Ye Lu is good at martial arts, it is still good for his sister to recognize his relatives, and he takes care of him along the way, and he is very dedicated.

This lantern market is named after the lantern market of the Lantern Festival, and is also famous for the exquisite lanterns, after getting off the carriage, you can see rows of five-colored lanterns that have been hung on both sides of the street early, but because it is still early, it has not been lit yet.

Although it was still early, someone on the main street to enjoy the lanterns had made preparations in advance. The stalls and vendors set up their stalls early, selling wontons, selling glutinous rice balls, selling all kinds of snacks, and selling sugar gourds and candy people, and the crowd of people coming and going shuttled and wandered, which seemed very lively.

"Come, Huiya, give you the sugar gourd!" Ye Lu, the little uncle, was very dedicated, and when he saw the vendor selling sugar gourds, he stopped and bought a few strings, and stuffed one of them neatly into Huiya's hands.

"Thank you, uncle!" Hui Ya was dressed in red fox fur, her cheeks were pink and tender, and she looked at the red and bright sugar gourd in her hand, with a full layer of sugar hanging on it. The syrup is like honey-colored ice in cold weather, slightly cool but with an incomparably sweet taste, paired with sour and refreshing hawthorn, it is unexpectedly delicious.

"What is there to thank you for! My sister has entrusted you to me, and I have to take good care of you! Ye Lu grinned, he still loved Huiya's gentle niece.

While eating the sugar gourd in his hand, he walked around the roadside stalls, and the attendants and guards were sent farther away.

Ye Qing and Ye Bi naturally went their own way, Ye Lu was not good at throwing away Huiya, so he had to stay by her side, watching her happily carefully select a worthless hairpin or a stone or something on the roadside stall.

The sky gradually darkened, the roadside lanterns were lit one after another, and the originally colorful streets became more hazy and beautiful because of the arrival of night.

"Look, there's a lantern riddle guessing ahead!" Ye Lu looked at the crowd in front of him, and there were still many people walking in that direction, and said to Hui Ya excitedly.

"Really?" Hui Ya was squinted by this scenery, and then looked at the fiery scene of guessing lantern riddles in the distance, and was a little eager to try, and was protected by Ye Lu to squeeze forward, and after a while, he arrived at the front of the lantern riddle stall, looking up at the riddles under the various lanterns.

"Hit, hit, hit!" Ye Lu laughed, and already had three or four lanterns in his hand, "Huiya, come, this plum blossom lamp is for you!" Ye Lu smiled and wanted to hand the lantern in his hand to Hui Ya beside him, but suddenly found that there was a different person next to him.

"Huiya?!" Ye Lu is very tall, and when he looks at the people around him, there is no shadow of Huiya, and he is a little panicked at the moment. Looking at the fox fur that flashed in the distance, and Hui Ya's slender body that seemed to be dragged forward, Ye Lu stared at the lantern with round eyes and threw it to the ground, and chased after it without saying a word.
