After the audience with the emperor, the couple had to attend a family banquet with their bosses.

This is inevitable.

Although there was a lot of entertainment, Lu Yan still took the time to take the children to visit the capital.

After being held on her father's shoulder for a long time, Rou'er had long since recognised her life, as long as she saw Lu Yan get up and get dressed, she rushed over and hugged her legs.

On this day, when it was dark, the family entered the house, Rou'er fell asleep in her father's arms on the way back, Lu Fang and Tie Spoon were still very energetic, each of them had all kinds of playthings in their hands, and the hands of the little servants who followed them were also full, and as soon as they entered the door, they flew into their own house and began to check and redistribute the spoils.

"No fighting." Liu Meibao hurriedly instructed, although she knew that it was in vain to say this, if the two children didn't fight twice a day, it would be in vain.

Lu Fang and Iron Spoon ran away early.

Rou'er handed it over to the nurse, let the people who had been with her for a day go to rest, and the husband and wife also went into the house to freshen up.

When Lu Yan came out after washing, Liu Meibao was drying her hair in front of the brazier, tilting her head to look at a book on the table.

"If you're tired, go to bed early." Lu Yan walked over to help her fix her hair.

Liu Meibao touched her hair with a smile, then sat down with Lu Yan and helped him dry his hair, while talking about trivial things, who sent what congratulatory gifts, what congratulatory gifts did he return, whose banquet he was going to, what gifts he was going to, what clothes and flowers were worn by his female dependents, who brought his concubine to the banquet, etc., Lu Yan listened with a smile, and the soft light illuminated the warm room.

"Alright, almost, go to sleep." Liu Meibao patted Lu Yan on the shoulder, put down his hair and smiled.

A trace of worry flashed in Lu Yan's eyes, but he didn't say anything.

Liu Meibao had already made the bed, extinguished the lights in the inner room one by one, and turned on the lights on the kang table outside.

She left the familiar medicine room. Sleep is once again in trouble.

Lu Yan didn't dare to say it, but he was afraid of adding more pressure to her, so he secretly asked the imperial doctor, but there was no good way, so he only prescribed medicine to calm the nerves and replenish qi.

She faced up to her illness and did not shy away from it in the slightest. Believe that you can be good.

As soon as Liu Meibao opened the book, Lu Yan came out again and blocked the candlelight.

"Mabel, if you're not sleepy, go out with me." Lu Yan looked at her and said with sparkling eyes.

"So late?" Liu Meibao looked out the window, a little puzzled, but immediately got up and said hello.

Lu Yan won't let her do something embarrassing, since she has spoken, it must be a very important thing.

Lu Yan saw that she was busy calling the servants to come in and look for clothes.

"It doesn't have to be too grand. Keep it simple. He said busily, watching Liu Meibao take out two gorgeous dresses.

The big night is probably to be low-key. Liu Meibao hurriedly found two more pieces to come out.

"Where's this?" She let Lu Yan see.

Lu Yan nodded and said yes.

Even if he was dressed as a beggar, Lu Yan would only say yes, Liu Meibao pursed her lips and smiled and stopped asking her, and went to change it.

The carriage slowly drove out of the general's mansion.

Under the cover of night, the capital presents another kind of prosperity and liveliness.

As the carriage moved, the hustle and bustle outside became more and more lively, and Liu Meibao couldn't help but lift the curtain to look.

The bright multicolored lights of the street streaked across her face.

The carriage came to a halt.

"Have you arrived?" Liu Meibao asked.

Lu Yan had already gotten out of the car first. Then reach out and pull her.

Liu Meibao walked down with his hand, and saw himself standing at the corner of the lively street, laughter, shouting, and silk and bamboo singing strings.

"Here we are." Lu Yan said with a smile. While looking around, it seemed to be confirmed, and then nodded definitively, "That's right, this is it." ”

Liu Meibao nodded and didn't ask anymore.

Lu Yan took her hand and walked inward, without a servant and a servant behind him, and the husband and wife quickly blended into the flow of people.

"Mabel, look at this lamp." Lu Yan pulled her to stop in front of a shop and asked with a smile.

Liu Meibao was already holding two noodle figures in her hands, and when she heard the words, she saw that it was a marquee, which looked very beautiful at night.

"Beautiful." She nodded and smiled.

The guys on the side have very sharp eyes, looking at the couple in front of them, the man is wearing a dark green robe with a jade belt, and the woman is a dark purple collared robe, which is an excellent material at first glance, decorated with a large number of tangled flowers, the embroidery is particularly fine, and the flowers on it are as delicate and tender as her people.

This is a rich man.

"Uncle, good eyes." The guy immediately spat out the lotus flower, and took off the marquee lantern neatly, what auspicious Ruyi was born early, and the noble son kept saying that when the children and grandchildren were full, he was about to soar to become a fairy.

Liu Meibao couldn't help but smile while stretching out her hand to pull Lu Yan.

"Rou'er has already bought three, and there is no place to hang them." She chuckled, "No matter how good things are, they can't all be sold." ”

Lu Yan smiled and waved his hand to signal that he didn't want to.

The man's face immediately pulled down, and he looked at the two of them holding hands and wanted to go out.

"There are five people and six people who wear it, it turns out to be pretend, poor ghost!" He muttered in a low voice, and before the words fell, he saw the woman turn around, and the little girl thought that his words had been heard, as the saying goes, harmony makes money, he hurriedly laughed, and the woman smiled at him, and turned his head away.

"Where the hell are you going?" Liu Meibao followed Lu Yan slowly, watching Lu Yan seriously hang the two newly bought rhombic fans around his waist, shaking his arm and asking, "How can you meet customers after buying these things?" It's better to wait until you're done shopping..."

Lu Yan smiled and turned his head to look at her.

"Laughing like that!" Liu Meibao raised her hand to poke his face and pursed her lips and smiled.

"Today is fifteen." Lu Yan said with a smile.

Liu Meibao nodded.

"yes, what's wrong?" She asked.

"Look, there's a boat over there." Lu Yan didn't answer, his eyes lit up and pointed to the side.

Liu Meibao followed what he pointed to, only to find that he had walked to the river, the river was full of galleries, gorgeous women looming in the boat, laughter and music shook the bright moon in the river, like a fairyland.

"By boat?" Before she could ask, she was already pulled by Lu Yan to the dock and beckoned to the boat, but the boat was already full at this time, and it took a long time to find a simple boat.

Lu Yan was obviously very dissatisfied and looked annoyed.

"It's not the boat that cruises, it's the artistic conception." Liu Meibao said with a smile. Take him by the hand and get on the boat first.

The old man rocking the boat was thin and small, and after listening to Liu Meibao's words with a worried expression, he cracked his toothless mouth and smiled.

"When I look at my uncle and grandmother, I live a harmonious and beautiful life." He sighed.

Lu Yan likes to listen to this, because his dislike for this small boat immediately disappeared.

"You can see that?" He asked with a little smugness and a little eagerness.

Liu Meibao pursed her lips and smiled on the side.

The boatman laughed, and when the two of them were seated, they shook the oars, and the boat staggered away into the river.

"I can't see it yet. Life is like plowing, pushing and pulling, look at grandma just talking, is to follow the uncle, just like the plough you pull her to push, the more beautiful it is. The boatman laughed.

Lu Yan smiled from ear to ear, like a child who had been rewarded.

Liu Meibao couldn't help laughing.

"Grandpa and grandma are not from the capital, right?" The boatman shook the boat and laughed, looking at the two sitting in the cabin and still holding hands.

The accent was naturally easy to distinguish, and Liu Meibao nodded at him.

"When you come to the capital, you have to visit our riverside night scene, Uncle is really good at playing. Grandma is so blessed. The boatman then added fire.

Lu Yan's face was red, and he could only grin.

"The emperor has also seen it. If it's nice, I've only heard that my ears are calloused, and I haven't seen you like this these days. Liu Meibao whispered in his ear, "I was coaxed like this by an old shipwright in a few words." ”

Lu Yan snorted, looking disagreeable.

"Just listen to those nonsense, this old man is telling the truth." He said seriously, "It's not that people are happy to hear it." ”

Liu Meibao reached out to twist his waist and leaned on his shoulder with a smile.

Lu Yan stretched out his hand to hug her.

The boatman laughed too. He opened his mouth and sang a little song.

"Visiting my sister in July is on the seventh day of July, the Cowherd and Weaver Girl will have a good time, and God is very poisonous. Break up his good husband and wife, visit the sister in August is the Mid-Autumn Festival, and the moon cake persimmon is in the pomegranate. There are also two pears, leave you for the Mid-Autumn Festival, visit my sister in the month chrysanthemum yellow, and I and my little sister enter the cave room. Open the red tent, a smell of osmanthus flowers..."

The soft-spoken little song was sung from the mouth of an old man, which had a unique taste.

Lu Yan couldn't understand and asked Liu Meibao in a low voice, and Liu Meibao translated it to him in a low voice.

The song swayed, and the two snuggled in the shadow of the boat and walked through the bright river.

After getting off the boat, the two walked along the river, Liu Meibao didn't ask anything to see anyone, but just held Lu Yan's hand tightly and followed him.

"I don't want this." She stopped Lu Yan from rushing to the stall again, and said with a smile, while raising his hand and shaking it in front of her eyes, "Otherwise, I won't be able to hold your hand." ”

Lu Yan smiled and squeezed her hand.

"Before I knew it, so many years had passed." Liu Meibao sighed and looked up at the bright moon in the sky.

"Mei Bao, it's been so many years for you to go back to the capital, my heart.." A trace of guilt appeared on Lu Yan's face, and he whispered.

Before he could finish speaking, Liu Meibao shook his hand and interrupted him.

"Erlang, look, there's a ring over there." She said happily.

Lu Yan looked over.

"I didn't see it a few times during the day." Liu Meibao pulled him over quickly, and said with a smile, "I originally wanted Xiaozhou to play with Rou'er." ”

"It's that we didn't go to the right place." Lu Yan said with a smile.

The two had already squeezed through the crowd and stood in front.

"Little lady, look, this is a fresh trick from the palace, come and try your luck." The stall owner in his jacket said, smiling as if he had seen prey, but soon his laughter turned to crying.

The little woman was indeed the prey, but she ignored the hunter standing behind her, watching one small object after another fall into the circle thrown by Lu Yan, listening to the roaring cheers all around, counting that the night was almost in vain, and the stall owner had the heart to cry.

"Speaking of which, it's the second time I've seen someone as lucky as you, uncle..."The stall owner shook his head and sighed, reluctantly handing the last few laps to Lu Yan.

"Really? Blessed are we? Lu Yan smiled, threw out the last circle, and with the applause from all around, he steadily covered the remaining few small boxes, "Blessed people are naturally lucky..."

The stall owner muttered this sentence and roared at the onlookers who were still coaxing.

"If you scatter and scatter, count me unlucky...", he said in fragments, "The blessed will not fall into the unblessed land, and I will earn it back tomorrow..."

He couldn't help but look at the two men who had walked away.

"Blessed are you." He muttered, "Hey, these two people are so familiar..."

Frowning for a moment, the stall owner slapped his thigh hard and shouted My mother.

"I don't think I'll run into them again!" He shouted.
