Chapter 363 Ningcheng Celebration

Ningcheng this afternoon was much more lively than usual, it seemed that because of the upcoming celebration, the faces of the pedestrians on the street were all happy, and even Feng Anyan and He Mulan were a little infected by the atmosphere.

As Feng Anyan said, there are indeed some stalls selling food everywhere on the street, He Mulan followed Feng Anyan to a stall selling snacks, and curiously tried their sweet cakes, and suddenly the sweetness was almost swallowable.

"It's so sweet." After He Mulan finally swallowed it, he said with a bitter face.

"This is going to be served with this kind of tea, little girl, don't be too anxious." The old grandmother who sold sweet cakes took out a cup of green tea tremblingly, He Mulan took a sip, and suddenly felt that her mouth was full of refreshing taste, and the sweet and greasy taste suddenly dissipated a lot.

"It seems to be quite delicious, Yasuhiko, you can try it." He Mulan put down the teacup, picked up a piece of sweet cake and handed it to Feng Anyan's lips, watched him open his mouth to eat, and handed him the teacup again.

"How?" The old grandmother looked at Feng Anyan with a smile and asked.

Feng Anyan nodded: "Is this tea brewed from special tea leaves?"

"yes, I'll show you." The old grandmother took out a packet of cyan leaves from the drawer on the side and handed it to Feng Anyan.

"Wow, it doesn't feel like the tea we usually see." He Mulan stretched out her head curiously to look, and by the way, she leaned in and sniffed it, and sure enough, she smelled a cool smell.

"This leaf can be used to make tea or as medicine." The old grandmother seemed to be an outsider, and although her Mandarin was a little vernacular, it was easier to understand than the teacher she met that day.

"Let's buy a pack." Feng Anyan asked the price and found that it was not very expensive, Ningcheng was not as terrible as some tourist cities, he paid for some sweet cakes and a bag of tea, the sweet cakes were held in an oily paper bag, He Mulan happily held the bag and followed Feng Anyan forward, the grandmother told He Mulan that as long as it was not swallowed in one bite, it would not be too sweet to eat slowly in the mouth, but those teas could calm people's hearts, so Feng Anyan would buy them.

The two of them unconsciously walked to the side of the performance stage that was being built, He Mulan saw the servants he saw in the theater garden yesterday, they took off their makeup but could still see that kind of style, He Mulan couldn't help but sigh at their temperament.

The construction of the stage of the performance has come to an end, and some silk cloth is being hung as decoration, and He Mulan also noticed a lot of strange boxes, but after all, they are other people's things, so she didn't ask too much.

Some of the shops along the river have hung festive lanterns in front of their doors at this time, and some people are standing under the lanterns, folding their hands and bowing deeply to the lanterns, listening to others say that this is to express gratitude to the river god and pray for good luck in the coming days.

He Mulan thought it was funny, so she simply stood by the river and prayed to the river.

When she opened her eyes after completing the prayer, she saw Feng Anyan looking at her with interest.

"What for?" He Mulan glared at Feng Anyan angrily and asked.

"What are you wishing for? Curious. Feng Anyan approached He Mulan and asked.

"Haven't you heard the saying that if you say it, it won't work?" He Mulan murdered him, and then left the river in a hurry.

Feng Anyan shook his head helplessly, but still followed behind He Mulan, and the two of them came to the dock, a few small boats were moored on the edge of the small dock, and the boatman was smoking dry tobacco on the boat, and when he saw the two of them, he hurriedly beckoned to attract customers.

"Miss, sir, are you on a boat?" The boatman asked earnestly.

"I heard that there are river lanterns at the festival, can I still take a boat?" He Mulan asked strangely.

"Miss, the lantern meeting doesn't start until six o'clock in the afternoon, and it's only four o'clock, so we can go around the river." "And the lanterns usually only last for about an hour, and the boats are ready to move by then." ”

"So that's ......" He Mulan nodded clearly, and then suddenly saw a Kong Ming lantern on the boat, she couldn't help but be interested, "Brother boatman, what are you doing with this Kong Ming lantern?" ”

"Huh? This one......" The boatman hurriedly stuffed the Kong Ming lantern into it, and said as if to cover up, "nothing, nothing......"

"We don't take the boat, thank you, Mu Lan, let's go, let's go eat first." He Mulan was about to ask, but was interrupted by Feng Anyan, who pulled He Mulan up and took her to the side on his own.

"Oh, how did you stop me from asking him! Maybe he wanted to confess to the girl he liked? Seeing that Kong Ming lantern, He Mulan couldn't help but think of what he had heard this morning, and guessed to himself.

"How is it possible, he looks at least forty years old, and he has already got married." Feng Anyan didn't have much interest in these, just focused on looking for any restaurants, but fortunately, there was a restaurant not far away that looked good, so he walked into the restaurant with He Mulan as if he had found a target.

"How do you know that he must be married, a lot of single people at forty years old!" He Mulan still insisted on his own ideas, insisting that the boatman's Kong Ming lantern was used for confession.

"Mu Lan, your thinking is easy to be limited, it is because you listened to the words of the couple in the morning, you think that he has a Kong Ming Lantern to confess, but in fact, it is not." Feng Anyan explained seriously after ordering the food.

"Oh, how do you know?" He Mulan said angrily, "How do you know that you guessed right?" ”

"I'm not guessing, I just know." The corners of Feng Anyan's mouth hooked, and he said suddenly.

Now it was He Mulan's turn to be suspicious, she looked at Feng Anyan, and after making sure that he was not joking with herself, she asked, "Then tell me, what is his Kong Ming lantern for?" ”

"I won't tell you yet." Feng Anyan said dementedly, but after seeing He Mulan's gaze as if he was about to kill, he coughed lightly and said, "Maybe it's for the celebration, I don't know the specifics." ”

"I asked about the process of the celebration, first the river lanterns began to be released at about six o'clock, and the river lanterns were put on one side of the bridge to the other side, and then the night market on the street was opened, and the celebration performance began, and then it was time to express my heart for free activities, where do I need Kong Ming lanterns?" He Mulan believed in his memory, so he seriously analyzed with Feng Anyan.

Feng Anyan probably didn't expect He Mulan to remember it so clearly, so he sighed and said helplessly: "Why are you so serious?" ”

"What's wrong with the truth?" He Mulan said angrily, "This shows that my attitude is rigorous!" ”

"Okay, you have a rigorous attitude, but in the process you said so much, is there really not a Kong Ming lantern to use?" Feng Anyan looked at He Mulan and said meaningfully.

He Mulan thought for a while, and finally shook his head, looking at Feng Anyan with a confused expression.

Feng Anyan sighed again, looked at the waiter who came to serve the food with chopsticks and said, "Let's eat first, you will know in the evening." ”

Then, no matter how much He Mulan pressed him, Feng Anyan refused to say anything as if he had poured a layer of iron juice on his mouth.
