Chapter 39: Fireworks (Chapter 3: Asking for Recommendations)
Xie Yun nodded excitedly and replied, "Thank you, master, I'll explain to Feng Qiao when I go back tonight." ”
He Tian rolled his eyes, and sure enough, it was wishful thinking to expect Xie Yun to fight for a tone.
"Take the master to the gunpowder shop tomorrow, and the master will tell you what you should do."
Among all the apprentices, in addition to Shi Yi, He Tian's favorite is Feng Qiao, since it is a confession, it must have a sense of ceremony.
........
Lantern Festival, Yongxingfang, Xizhou.
He Tianzheng took the military advisor and a group of apprentices to visit the night market.
At first, the night market in Xizhou was not developed due to the strict curfew, and at night the doors of the shops needed to be closed to prohibit the movement of people.
He Tian has gradually lifted the curfew in recent years and attached great importance to the development of commerce, so the night market in Xizhou City has slowly developed.
At this time, the night entertainment activities of the common people were very scarce, especially the poor most of them could only stay at home and work hard to make people, so when the night market developed, the flow of people was huge.
These days, not only women, but even men and children, even if they don't buy things, like to go out at night to wander around, listen to books, and see new things.
Today coincides with the Lantern Festival, and there are a lot more people coming to the city to play, and they are even more shoulder to shoulder.
Although Shi Yi took her out to visit the city a lot after coming to Xizhou, she was still very excited by such a lively scene.
He Tian put most of his mind on Shi Yi, carefully blocking the crowded crowd for her to avoid Shi Yi being bumped into.
The rest of the apprentices all got together in twos and threes, some ran to guess the lantern riddles, some were keen on street food, and some were absent-minded.
Xie Yun and Feng Qiao walked side by side, following behind He Tian, their faces full of thoughts.
I barely said anything along the way, and occasionally wanted to say something, but when I turned my head and saw the other person's face, I left everything I wanted to say behind me, and hurriedly turned my head to look ahead.
Xie Chong followed behind the two, peeking at the movements of the two from time to time, sometimes excited, sometimes sighing.
Hong Xiaoyu and Luo Feng followed at the end, both looking directly at a good show in front of them.
The road in the neighborhood is not long, but the flow of people is crowded, and everyone stops from time to time to take a look, so it took two hours to finish.
He Tian looked back at everyone, pointed to the city wall not far away and said, "Since you are here, everyone will go with me to the city wall to overlook the night view of Xizhou." ”
After speaking, he pointed to Xie Yun and said, "Xie Yun, you and Feng Qiao will go up first and explain to the soldiers guarding the city, and I will take the others to get something to comfort them." ”
Xie Yun and Feng Qiao nodded yes, walked past everyone, and walked towards the city wall.
Feng Qiao didn't notice that He Tian and the others behind secretly followed.
Xie Yun took Feng Qiao up to the city wall, said hello to the soldiers along the way, and walked to the edge of the city wall, looking down at the night scene in the city.
The lights in the city are bright, and from a distance, there are dense dots moving slowly in the roads composed of lights, and the noisy sounds of the crowd can still be heard on the city walls.
This prosperous world is flashy, and it looks beautiful.
Feng Qiao looked at the scene in front of her, and forgot the existence of Xie Yun next to her for a while.
Xie Yun's throat moved, he took a deep breath, and plucked up his courage to say, "General Feng, I have prepared a gift for you. ”
Feng Qiao came back to her senses when she heard the voice, turned her head to look at Xie Yun, Xie Yun's eyes reflected the lights in the city, bright and deep, Feng Qiao looked a little trance-like, and said clearly: "What gift?" ”
Xie Yun looked at Feng Qiao in front of him, and his finger slowly pointed to the sky above the city.
Feng Qiao's gaze looked in the direction that Xie Yun was pointing to.
There was nothing in the air, not even the stars seemed to be obscured, and it was pitch black.
As soon as Feng Qiao wanted to turn her head and question Xie Yun, she heard a loud "bang", and a yellow light flew into the sky with a long tail, and exploded when it reached a high place, like a marigold blooming quietly.
Before the flower could disappear, several rays of light slowly rose from the ground, and when they rose to a certain height, they all dispersed, some like meteors, and some flew around like fireflies in the sky.
The red, yellow, and blue lights were reflected on Feng Qiao's slightly raised face.
Xie Yun also experimented with fireworks when he was preparing fireworks under the guidance of his master some time ago, but it was not on such a large scale, so when he saw the fireworks in the sky, he was also shocked by such a beautiful scenery.
But soon he relented, tonight's theme is not fireworks, he should hurry.
"General Feng, I have something in my heart that I want to say to you."
Feng Qiao slowly turned around, lowered her head slightly and replied, "General Xie, what do you have to say?" ”
Xie Yun folded his hands, half-bowed and said: "I have admired you for a long time, and I am willing to hire you as a wife, entrust your life, and continue to have an heir, and live for a lifetime." ”
Feng Qiao: ???
Xie Yun hurriedly explained: "General Feng, I have been in love with you for a long time and want to marry you, I don't know if you agree?" If you agree, I'll go and ask the master to marry us. ”
Feng Qiao didn't expect Xie Yun to be unusual, and his expression of love would be so warm and direct, and she was happy in her heart, but on weekdays, Feng Qiao developed the habit of talking back to Xie Yun (arguing), and habitually said: "Don't you always think I love to train you on weekdays?" ”
Xie Yun looked at Feng Qiao's big eyes and said, "I just like the feeling of being trained by you." I wish I could be disciplined by you for the rest of my life. ”
"I can't be a good wife, neither docile nor virtuous, nor do I do laundry, cooking, and serving others."
"That's what I like about you. If you don't like laundry and cooking, then I'll help you wash your clothes, I'll cook your favorite food for you, you won't serve others, then I'll take care of you. ”
"I can't live without the barracks for the rest of my life."
"Where you are, I'll be there."
"Then you will listen to me in everything from now on."
"Of course, in the future, the master will be the first, you will be the second, and I will be the third."
Feng Qiao has been in the army for many years, and her style has always been straightforward, and her personality is not twisted.
looked at Xie Yun, nodded with a smile, and agreed directly: "Okay, then I promise you." ”
"Good! That's great! Xie Yun said with a smile, "Then I will go and ask the master tomorrow to give us a marriage." ”
"Hmm!" Feng Qiao smiled brightly and nodded vigorously.
The fireworks in the city were still playing, Xie Yun and Feng Qiao stood side by side, glanced at each other, smiled, and then watched the fireworks rise and fall together.
Under the light and shadow of the sky, the backs of the two looked extremely harmonious.
"Xie Yun, you must not let me down in the future, if you are like my father to my mother, then I will kill you with one sword."
"Well, I will live up to you in this life."
