Zhao Fengnian was provoked by her appearance, and shook the book in his hand, "These three books, although they are not as precious as "Travels to the Twelve Kingdoms", are also rare and good books, and the fame of selling books is not hard to read, otherwise it is impossible to even be willing to sell such books." ”

Rui Xue still took advantage of it when she heard this, and immediately took the book with a smile and flipped through it, "Losers are everywhere, but without them, we wouldn't be able to buy good books." ”

The two found a stall selling weaving materials, and spent 30 yuan to buy a rattan basket the size of a sea bowl, which just held three books.

At this time, the sky gradually darkened, and the shops and large households, which had long been impatient, lit up all kinds of lanterns almost at the same time.

Eight Treasure Palace Lanterns, Marquee Lanterns, Dragon Lanterns, Yarn Lanterns, Flower Basket Lanterns, Dragon and Phoenix Lanterns, Tree Lamps, Mushroom Lamps, have different shapes and colors, and instantly illuminate the entire city as white as day.

In front of each shop, a table is set up, a lamp stand is set up, and the people can watch the lanterns, if they can guess the lantern riddles, there are colorful heads to take, or a marquee, or a fan, a purse, not valuable, but they are all extremely delicate and pleasant.

Rui Xue took a fancy to the lanterns hanging in the most conspicuous place in front of a silver building from a distance, the concubine-colored light gauze was pasted on the bamboo branches woven into the shape of lotus flowers, the layers of petals were delicate and transparent, and there were golden stamens flashing in the middle, which was extremely light and elegant.

Zhao Fengnian saw that she always turned his head to look, and guessed that she must like it, so he took her and squeezed her closer, and asked the young man in the silver building, "That lotus flower, etc., is it for sale or for a prize?" ”

The young man saw that he was wearing a stone blue robe, a square scarf and his hair, and a typical reading person's dress, his face immediately added three points of respect, and said with a smile, "This gentleman is really good eyesight, this is the best lamp in the shop, if you guess the lantern riddle, you will give it to Mr. as a color head, if Mr. does not like to bother, you can also take it for a hundred yuan." ”

Men are naturally arrogant, especially in front of their beloved women, how could Zhao Fengnian lose face, and immediately reached out and picked up the paper hanging under the lamp, only to see these four lines written on it, "Standing is also sitting, walking is also sitting, sitting is also sitting, lying is also sitting." There are also a few very small words at the back, "Hit a wild thing".

The young man is a clever man, and he is literate, and he read out the mystery aloud, and there are people around to watch the excitement, so he began to guess, but after discussing for a long time, he didn't have a clue, and finally he looked at Zhao Fengnian, counting on this master, this scholar solved the puzzle, and also solved the doubts for everyone.

Zhao Fengnian thought about it for a while, but his brows wrinkled deeper and deeper, if it was an anagram, or a poem, it was okay, but the wild thing was unfamiliar, and he didn't have a clue at all, but at this time, it was not good to say that he couldn't guess it in front of everyone, so the palm of his right hand holding Rui Xue gradually oozed sweat.

Rui Xue saw the riddle just now, and immediately guessed the answer to the riddle, in her previous life, such lantern riddles and word puzzles were everywhere, even if she was lonely and unheard, she had heard a lot. originally thought that Zhao Fengnian was so smart that he would be able to guess it immediately, but unfortunately, she didn't know Zhao Fengnian's identity, he was almost born with a golden spoon, and before the accident, he didn't even have mud on his feet, how to know the habits of wild things.

But she soon noticed that his complexion was different, hesitated for a few breaths, and pretended to reach out to touch the Eight Treasure Palace lamp hanging on a high place, and when she was close to Zhao Fengnian's ear, she said softly, "Toad."

Zhao Fengnian's eyes lit up immediately, and he couldn't help but sigh, "I see." ”

When the young man heard this, he knew that he must have the answer, so he asked in a loud voice, "Sir is talented, but if you have guessed the answer to the riddle, it is better to tell it to solve your doubts." ”

Zhao Fengnian's face was slightly red, and he glanced at the smiling Ruixue with some shyness, and said, "Toad."

The young man and the others suddenly realized, and said one after another, "Sure enough, in the summer, the frogs are still noisy, why can't I remember it at this time." ”

The young man took off the lotus lantern, respectfully handed it to Rui Xue, and said with a smile, "This sister-in-law is really a blessing, Mr. is talented, he will definitely be able to go to high school one day." ”

Rui Xue only hopes that Zhao Fengnian can be healthy, and she has no hope for fame and fortune, but everyone loves to listen to good words, she is naturally happy, nodded and thanked her, and carefully protected the lotus lantern from being hit, and squeezed out with Zhao Fengnian.

When the two of them went to the sparse crowd on the street, they both let out a long breath. Rui Xue fiddled with the lotus lantern in her hand and said with a smile, "Go home and hang it for two nights, and it's also excellent to make decorations on weekdays." ”

Zhao Fengnian looked at her and looked down at the lantern, her face was covered with a faint concubine color because of the light, as delicate as a flower, and she suddenly felt sour for no reason, and said lightly, "If you don't marry a useless sick seedling like me, today's life..."

"Today's days must be to be a maid in some house, or to be pulled into bed by some lord or son, and finally became pregnant and was tortured to death by the eldest woman!" Rui Xue didn't wait for him to finish, she crackled and continued to say a long list, which made Zhao Fengnian stunned.

He wanted to reprimand Rui Xue for saying any taboo words, but he felt that her angry eyes made him panic.

"It's just a riddle, you haven't planted rice in the field, and you're not familiar with the appearance of a toad, so it's understandable, why do you care so much. Besides, as long as you live, I don't have to be a widow, I don't have to be sold into slavery, as long as you live, I have something to rely on, as long as you live, I will have a head to make money, you are a dependent person for me, and it is extremely important. Don't be presumptuous in the future, I marry you, and you marry me, it's each other's blessings. ”

The two have been married for half a year, Rui Xue is busy opening a shop, making tofu, and supporting most of the family, even if she is busy on weekdays, she has never neglected Zhao Fengnian's care, but she is afraid that he will feel inferior in his heart.

She was suddenly angry in her heart, couldn't he see her true intentions, she never wanted her husband and wife to be honored, she just had to support each other with him, rely on each other, and grow old hand in hand, no matter if she was tired or wronged, as long as she turned around, he was there to look at her with a smile, and that's it.

Zhao Fengnian looked at her beautiful eyes, tears fell down, under the light, pearl-like, the chest immediately felt a sharp pain, and in a panic, he raised his hand to hold her in his arms, and said, "Don't cry, I thought wrong, I, Zhao Fengnian, can marry you, it is a blessing for three lives, if I bear you, I will be punished by God." ”

Rui Xue was a little out of breath by him, but in his heart he was happy because he understood and said such sweet words for the first time, the anger just now disappeared in an instant, and he gently stretched out his hand to wrap around his back, and said angrily, "I can write down what you said, he day, if you are three..."

"Where are men and women coming from, hugging them in the street, it's really immoral."

"It's not, tsk, this man is still a scholar, why don't you know etiquette..."

Rui Xue was halfway through speaking, but was interrupted by the discussion of passers-by around her, and the two suddenly separated, only then did they realize that they had already become the object of everyone's guidance, the two of them instantly blushed, bowed their heads and squeezed out of the crowd, and ran straight for a long distance before they glanced at each other and laughed out loud.

After laughing, Zhao Fengnian coughed twice and said, "Let's go to the restaurant, Sister-in-law Zhang, I'm afraid they will be in a hurry." After saying that, he raised his head and walked forward in four directions.

"Yes, sir." Rui Xue immediately responded softly, straightened her dress, and followed him a foot away in small steps that were extremely virtuous and polite.

Whoever looks at the appearance of this couple will not associate with the immoral girl just now, only the deep smile in each other's eyes, quietly betraying their details.

In front of the Haocai Restaurant, Sister-in-law Zhang had been waiting for the two children for a long time, and when she saw the two of them squeezing from the crowd from a distance, she stepped forward and complained, "Why did you go for so long, I thought you were lost." ”

"How could it be, but I stayed in the calligraphy and painting shop for two more moments. Sister-in-law is hungry, let's eat something to cushion our stomachs, and then we will go home. ”

Sister-in-law Zhang nodded and went to pull the two children, Rui Xue suddenly found that Wu Yu actually had a handkerchief on his face, so he asked in surprise, "What's wrong with Brother Yu, but you cut your face?" ”

Sister-in-law Zhang didn't wait for an answer, but Da Zhuang pinched a few noodle people in her hands, squeezed over next to Rui Xue and smiled, "Master, Brother Yu is so good, he is standing under the lampstand, those people threw lanterns, crowded over to see him, my mother was afraid that he would be abducted, so she took a handkerchief to cover his face." ”

Rui Xue listened, and Zhao Fengnian couldn't laugh, this kid is too good-looking, it's really easy to attract attention, but think about it, if there are any bad people who have dirty thoughts, it's really troublesome, it's okay to cover it up, even if you come out again in the future, you have to remember to cover it up.

Wu Yu saw that they were all laughing at themselves, and the eyebrows and eyes that were exposed outside were furrowed together, looking very annoyed, and he turned his head and waved his fist at Da Zhuang, who immediately made a grimace and hid behind Rui Xue.

Rui Xue patted him on the head, stepped forward and pulled Wu Yu, and said with a smile, "Bear with me for a while, and we'll go home after dinner." ”

Wu Yu nodded, retracted his fist, followed behind her, and ignored Da Zhuang.

When the group entered the restaurant, a young man in Tsing Yi ran over to greet them, quickly glanced at their clothes, but did not show any disdain, and said with a smile, "A few guest officers, but do you want to eat?" ”

"Exactly, find us a box with a view of the street." Zhao Fengnian looked around the lobby, it seemed that there were many men who were drunk and laughing loudly, he was a little disliked, and there were two female dependents, Rui Xue and Sister-in-law Zhang, so he asked for the box.

It just so happened that a guest booked a box tonight but didn't arrive, and the young man didn't make it difficult, answered loudly, led them up to the second floor, and entered the box in the middle.

Wu Yu immediately took off the veil on his face, took two breaths hard, and then went to push the window, Da Zhuang heard the noise outside, and he also smiled and went up, and the two of them lay on the window lattice together, looking down at the street scene below with great interest.

Rui Xue sat down with Zhao Fengnian, and pulled Sister-in-law Zhang to sit beside her, and then asked the young man with a smile, "What signature dishes do you have in this restaurant?" ”
