Dragon and lion dances, stepping on stilts, appreciating lanterns, guessing lantern riddles, eating rice balls, family men, women and children get together, or couples walk together.
There are a lot of couples like Xia Yuan in Qiaotou Ancient Town, they hold hands and buy beautiful and beautiful gadgets for their girlfriends, the toys at the street stalls are not expensive, ten yuan, fifteen yuan, there are bracelets, there are also Buddhist beads, and all kinds of small objects are beautifully made.
There are also some snacks, such as sugar gourd, pinching candy man, and even barbecue, braised vegetables, and Zhou Hei duck are added to it, and the antique town, small bridges and flowing water, people come and go.
Viewing lanterns is naturally indispensable to guess lantern riddles, the vendors put up a lantern stall, invite guests to guess the lantern riddles, there are two yuan once, there are five yuan once, even in the three lights, you can get a doll small toy, the more expensive the doll toy is bigger, the more exquisite.
Doll toys are lined up, constantly attracting tourists who come and go, especially a pair of small couples, many boys in order to prove themselves, will choose more difficult, but often be anxious to scratch their ears and cheeks, guess the lantern riddle in addition to guessing the name of the place, guess the word, there will be some strange problems, the difficulty is still very high.
Walking through the lively crowd, Xia Yuan took Pei Shanshan to a very lively lantern riddle guessing stall.
Pei Shanshan asked, "Do you want to play too?" ”
Xia Yuan replied: "I finally came once, I can't go home empty-handed, since I'm here, let's have fun." ”
He swept fifteen dollars and chose the most expensive.
"Boss, come three times for five dollars."
"The difficulty of five yuan is relatively high, but the reward is very rich, if you guess it three times, it is a success, you can choose a big doll, if you guess one wrong, you will fail. Boy, it's time to come on, give your girlfriend a few more dolls to go back. ”
The boss smiled heartily, basically the people who came to guess the lantern riddle were a couple, seeing Xia Yuan and Pei Shanshan, especially Pei Shanshan still grabbing the corner of Xia Yuan's clothes, it was obvious that the two were naturally also lovers.
Xia Yuan didn't explain, Pei Shanshan on the side blushed shyly, and she didn't know if her delicate appearance was reflected by the red lanterns.
After paying, the boss pointed to the shelves in front of the stalls, each of which had a small lantern hanging on it, and a note on each small lantern: "These questions are random, just open one, the note says the question, the answer time is one minute, and if you can't guess it, you will fail the challenge." ”
Xia Yuan turned his head and said to Pei Shanshan: You can choose. ”
Pei Shanshan smiled sweetly, stretched out her hand and grabbed a small lantern down, tore open the lantern, and there was a note inside, which read:
'Fountain pen and brush to make a picture (typing an idiom)'
Pei Shanshan glanced at it, her beautiful eyes were bent into a crescent moon, and she looked at Xia Yuan: "I know." ”
Xia Yuan smiled knowingly: "I know too." ”
"Hard and soft."
The two spoke almost in unison.
The boss scratched his head: "Is this question so simple?" ”
Xia Yuan smiled: "It's not simple, but it just so happens that we will do this, Shanshan's luck is still very good, and the first one chose such an easy guess." ”
Pei Shanshan heard Xia Yuan call herself Shanshan, and she called her so kindly, her little face turned red, and she felt sweet in her heart.
"Yes, go ahead."
The boss smiled and didn't take it to heart, there are many couples who guess one question correctly, but there are very few or even no who want to guess two or three questions correctly.
Both Android and Apple are available. 】
"Or am I coming?" Pei Shanshan glanced at Xia Yuan and asked.
"Of course, your luck is so good, of course you have to continue, this time make persistent efforts, and winning the doll is just around the corner."
Pei Shanshan felt a little sweet in her heart, put aside the lantern that had been opened, took off a new lantern on it, and pulled out the note.
'Xianle (playing a idiom)'
Pei Shanshan frowned, it was another idiom, she was a little unsure, let Xia Yuan see: "This, it's a little difficult." ”
Xia Yuan glanced at it, thoughtfully, the title of only two words really stumped him, the time was only one minute, and his brain turned quickly.
"The fairy music that the immortals listen to." Pei Shanshan whispered.
She was stumped, the title was only two words, Xianle, and guessed the idiom, there were no other hints, it was difficult to come out.
Just as a minute was about to pass, Xia Yuan raised his head, "I know!" It's 'extraordinary'! ”
After Pei Shanshan heard the idiom Xia Yuan said, her furrowed brows stretched out, and a smile appeared on her face.
She said: "Xia Yuan, you are also amazing, you can guess this." ”
The boss was a little surprised and exclaimed: "You two are amazing, you are the third to guess the second puzzle today, and this question is stumped by many people, I didn't expect it to be given by you." ”
"Call this time a fluke, go on."
Xia Yuan smiled.
Pei Shanshan chose another lantern and took out the note, 'Dumb gesture (playing an idiom)'.
Seeing this question, Xia Yuan frowned, thinking about the idiom that could be involved in gesturing with a mute in his mind, but in a few seconds, he blurted out directly: "It goes without saying." ”
Dumb people can't speak, gesticulate, don't they match with self-evidentness?
Pei Shanshan covered her mouth in surprise, and said with a look of surprise: "Xia Yuan, you are so amazing, I didn't expect it." ”
Immediately after, she became excited again: "It's successful!" ”
The boss was completely impressed by Xia Yuan, pointed to the few one-person-tall dolls, and asked them to choose one.
"You pick." Xia Yuan turned his head and said.
"Really? Let me pick? Pei Shanshan asked with a hint of joy.
"Well, that's what you guessed."
Hearing Xia Yuan's words, Pei Shanshan's heart slammed like a deer, and she pointed to one of the dolls and said, "Boss, just want that doll." ”
Pei Shanshan chose a doll with the image of a cat, such a big doll, how tall is one person, it is very eye-catching in her arms, many couples around her cast envious eyes, and most girls have a hateful gaze for their boyfriends.
Look at other people's boyfriends, looking at you, you can't even take a little doll.
Xia Yuan asked her with a smile on his face, "Are you still playing?" ”
Pei Shanshan hugged the doll and smiled sweetly: "Don't play, this doll is enough." ”
Xia Yuan smiled and nodded, the cost of fifteen yuan won a big doll, such a doll can be sold for dozens of yuan on the e-commerce platform, it is already very worthwhile, the most important thing is to enjoy the fun in the process of getting the doll.
It's not about how much, it's about who to talk to.
Walking in the crowd, Pei Shanshan, who was holding a cat doll more than one person high, received a wave of envy from time to time, and many couples wanted to get a doll of this size, but the various topics made them really anxious, scratching their ears and cheeks, guessing for a long time, it was already very heaven to be able to guess two correctly.
At this time, someone called them.
"Sanshan!"
The two turned their heads, and a man and a woman squeezed in the crowd, obviously knowing Pei Shanshan.
"Shin Shin." Pei Shanshan exclaimed in surprise, "Why did you come here, didn't you go to the movies?" ”
The girl named Xinxin complained with a sigh: "What kind of movie to watch, there are so many people dying, tickets for seven or eight o'clock have long been sold out, and you can only watch night shows if you want to watch it." ”
She glanced at Xia Yuan, who was standing behind Pei Shanshan, and then looked at the doll in her arms, blinked her eyes, and asked, "This is you... No introduction"
Pei Shanshan hurriedly said, "This is Xia Yuan." ”
She said to Xia Yuan again: "This is my best friend, Zheng Xin, they are my best friend's friends." ”
Xia Yuan nodded at them: "Hello." ”
A few people said hello briefly, and Zheng Xin looked at the big doll in her arms: "You guys are guessing lantern riddles?" ”
Pei Shanshan nodded and said, "Yes, how about it, it looks good, right?" ”
Zheng Xin said enviously: "It's good-looking, we also guessed, and we guessed several times, but we didn't guess correctly." ”
Pei Shanshan covered her mouth and smiled: "Let's guess once." ”
Zheng Xin was a little distressed: "No, I'm going to die of acid." ”
The boy who followed Zheng Xin said, "Xinxin, if you want it, let's guess." ”
Zheng Xin's eyes lit up: "Okay, okay." ”
She squeezed her eyes at Pei Shanshan and left with the boys around her.
Xia Yuan asked Pei Shanshan: "Are the two of them boyfriend and girlfriend?" ”
Pei Shanshan hugged the doll and looked at their backs: "Not yet, but my best friend is chasing him, and he has been chasing him for a month, and the two of them basically like each other, but what my best friend thinks is that I hope the boy can take the initiative to confess." ”
Xia Yuan was thoughtful.
"Where are we going next?"
"Have you eaten?"
"Not yet."
"Then let's go get something to eat, the snacks here are delicious."
"Okay."
Xia Yuan took Pei Shanshan to find a noodle restaurant, asked for two noodles, and said: "This noodle restaurant has been open for more than ten years, and when there was a square here before, I took the students to the square to exercise, and often brought them here to eat. ”
Looking at the full noodle restaurant, Pei Shanshan nodded: "You can see that the noodles in this noodle restaurant are delicious." ”
The beef noodles came up quickly, smelling this familiar fragrance, Xia Yuan had a great appetite, Pei Shanshan sniffed lightly, and also felt that the taste was good, after tasting it, his eyes dug out a crescent, the taste of the soup noodles was good, the noodles were strong, and the soup was delicious.
It is worthy of being an authentic noodle restaurant for ten years.
"It's delicious."
Pei Shanshan has eaten a lot of delicacies, and it is the first time that she feels that the noodles are so delicious.
A bowl of noodles soon entered the stomach, touching the round lower abdomen, Pei Shanshan pouted, "Hey, after the New Year this year, I have to lose weight hard." ”
Xia Yuan took a tissue, gave it to her, got up to pay, and the two walked out, but they didn't expect to meet Pei Shanshan's best friend again, looking at their empty-handed appearance, it is estimated that they failed to challenge the lantern riddle.
"Failed?" Pei Shanshan asked.
"My good Shanshan, don't irritate me, I spent thirty yuan, but it didn't work."
Zheng Xin pouted, looking a little unhappy, and Pei Shanshan could only comfort her.
The boy in Pei Shanshan's mouth who is about to become a young man looks very young, in his early twenties, with long hair, very white complexion, looks very handsome, not tall, 1.74 meters, only a little taller than Pei Xinxin, such a boy looks a bit like a little milk dog in a girl's mouth.
It's just that he looks a little worried now, as if he is worried about not being able to win a doll for Zheng Xin.
There is still a comparison between girls, seeing Pei Shanshan holding this big doll, Zheng Xin is not envious of it, it is all fake.
In this regard, Xia Yuan can only be helpless, after all, guessing lantern riddles still depends on knowledge.
Pei Shanshan covered her mouth and chuckled: "It's okay, continue to work hard next year." ”
Zheng Xin glanced at the boy behind him and said, "It's okay, continue to work hard next year." ”
She looked at the two of them and asked, "You just had dinner?" ”
Pei Shanshan nodded and recommended: "The noodle restaurant in front tastes pretty good." ”
"Let's go."
Pei Shanshan only chatted with her best friend for a while, and then separated from her best friend.
The two wandered around the ancient town, and went to watch a movie again, it was already ten o'clock when they came out, Xia Yuan sent Pei Shanshan home, and when he left, Pei Shanshan looked at him: "Pay attention to safety on the way back, and send me a message when you get home." ”
"Got it."
Xia Yuan nodded, "It's too cold outside, hurry up and enter the house." ”
Pei Shanshan nodded, and just as Xia Yuan turned around to leave, she plucked up her courage and said, "Xia Yuan, thank you, a few nights are the happiest night I had." ”
"Me too."
Xia Yuan looked at the girl holding the doll in front of him, smiled, and waved at her.
When he got home, Xia Yuan sat in the car and looked at the message Pei Shanshan had just sent to himself: "I've washed up, and now I'm in the bed." ”
There is also a selfie attached, in which Pei Shanshan is wearing cute pink bunny pajamas, with a sweet smile on her face pillowing the doll she got by guessing the lantern riddle today.
She also looks very good-looking when she leaves the country without makeup.
"Just got home."
Xia Yuan sent her a message back, got out of the car and closed the door, and Pei Shanshan sent a message.
"Okay."
I sent another one: "The photo is beautiful (laughing)"
Xia Yuan smiled: "It's good-looking, it looks cute." ”
Pei Shanshan: "(shy) Thank you for the doll you got me, I like it very much, let it sleep with me tonight." ”
Xia Yuan: "If you like it, I'll wash up first, you go to bed early, it's not early." ”
Pei Shanshan: "Okay, good night." ”
Xia Yuan: "Good night." ”
Put the mobile phone in his pocket, Xia Yuan returned home, the house was quiet, his parents were already sleeping, Xia Yuan took a hot bath, changed to sleep and lay on the bed, and the events of half a month came to his mind.
At the beginning of the return, I went to the cemetery, met Pei Shanshan, learned English and Japanese, learned a lot of war materials, and insisted on running and exercising every day, which is basically what I did for the second return.
Of course, the biggest thing is to change his mentality, at least Xia Yuan can now face everything in real life.
The time quietly came to twelve o'clock.
