Luci continued to lie in the yard.

In recent days, the temperature has dropped a lot, and he has added an extra piece of clothing.

In the same way, Lux and the others wore thicker clothes.

At this time, the morning wind blows, and although it is not so cold, I can feel a chill.

Lay down for a while.

The other girls also arrived one after another, and after seeing each other, they all said happy holidays.

Seeing that everyone had arrived, Luki did not lie down anymore, but got up from his chair and began to prepare breakfast.

After eating breakfast.

Luci began to decorate the yard.

After all, this day was his first holiday here, so Lu Qi also put some thought into arranging it.

He found a lot of bamboo from outside, and then he went to look for tools.

Then he cut the bamboo, cut it into slender strips one after another, and then skillfully weaved them.

It was rare for all the women to see him not lying on that chair, and when they saw this scene, they couldn't help but be a little curious.

Lux leaned over and crouched beside Lucie, watching him weave several bamboo strips into each other as if he were knitting a sweater.

A little curiosity appeared in his eyes, and he couldn't help asking, "What are you doing?" ”

Lu Qi replied without raising his head: "Make a few lanterns." ”

Demacian lanterns were not common, and as soon as he said this, the Lux were even more curious.

Although I haven't seen the finished product, it must be interesting to make this guy bother.

Interested, Lux blinked and said, "I'll help too." ”

Hearing this, Lu Qi raised his head and glanced at her, as well as the curious women around him: "Okay, it's not difficult to do this, I'll teach you." ”

It just so happened that he had to finish the lanterns by himself, and it was quite a hassle.

So, next Lu Qi taught them the trick.

The inner frame of the lantern is actually not difficult to weave, and it is enough for novices to follow the cat and draw the tiger.

Lu Qi's demonstration was very slow, enough for the girls to see clearly and learn carefully.

After the frame is braided, the bamboo strips are fixed to each other with a thin string, and then there is a fixed place to place the candles inside.

The final step is to connect the bamboo strips together and a circular lantern frame is formed.

After teaching the girls these steps, Lucci went on to do other things.

Compared with the skeleton of the lantern, the body of the lantern is where a little skill is needed, and whether the final result of a lantern can become beautiful depends on the outer layer of skin.

For this, Luqi asked Yuna to buy some expensive paper.

Generally speaking, two different kinds of paper are required to make the lamp body.

One is placed inside to reflect the firelight, and the red rice paper is pasted inside, and the candlelight is reflected from the hollow, which will look beautiful.

The other is the outside, which is the appearance of the lantern, on which you can draw some pictures, or make some paper cuts, or write something.

Naturally, these are difficult for Luqi.

The rest of the day, the women weave the skeleton of the lantern over there, and Luci depicts the outer body of the lantern on the other side.

"Your Highness, do you think so?"

The first one to weave was Frey.

She is a former mother, and she has to be more dexterous in these things, and she has more things to do.

For Lu Qi's teaching, it can be said that it can be understood at one point.

Looking at the framed bamboo lantern in Frey's hand, Lu Qi smiled and nodded: "Yes, that's it, just put it here when it's done." ”

"Hmm."

Frey answered, placing the lantern next to Lucky.

When she made the first one, the others weren't even half-finished.

So Frey's side was lively, and from time to time people came up to ask for advice.

For his part, Lucci began to paste the lantern's stand with the lamp body.

As time passed, the women's lampstands were also made one after another and placed next to Lu Qi.

About twenty-five lanterns were made, six of which were made by Free alone.

At this time, all the women gathered around Lu Qi, watching him skillfully paste rice paper on the lantern.

In a short time, twenty-five lanterns of different colors were ready, and the pattern on the outside of each lantern was different.

Some have a full moon painted on them, some are sketched versions of cute animals, and some have the word 'Yiqiu' written on them.

Looking at these finished products, the eyes of all the women lit up.

Just from the outside, this lantern is very beautiful.

Lux proposed, "Let's light it up!" ”

Kahina immediately nodded: "Okay, good!" ”

Then Sana, Wayne, and Quinn all nodded, and finally even Fiona joined in.

As the lanterns lit up one after another, Lu Qi, who had rested, looked at the lanterns they were holding in their hands, revealing a speechless expression.

"In this broad daylight, even if you light it, what can you see?"

It was noon, and the sun was shining brightly overhead.

Even if the candles in the lantern are lit, it will not have any effect.

But Lu Qi's words, the women didn't listen to them at all.

After all, the lantern in their hands was made by themselves, and even though Luqi said that it was the best time to look at night, they couldn't wait to see it.

However, as Lu Qi said, the sunlight at this time is so strong, even if the candles inside are lit, from the outside, there is no effect.

So the women began to look forward to the evening again.

Then Luki began to set up the lanterns in the courtyard.

Twenty-five lanterns were hung in the front yard, in the back yard, under the eaves of the house.

Even though it's not yet night, as soon as these lanterns are hung, there is a little more festive joy.

With that done, it was almost time for Lu Qi to prepare lunch.

After lunch, everyone gathered on the sofa in the living room, either sitting or lying down, enjoying a leisurely lunch time after eating and drinking.

Lux touched her somewhat round belly, and her little face looked satisfied.

After a while, she sat up energetically, and looked at everyone with her eyes flashing: "There will be a celebration in the afternoon, should we go to see it?" ”

Hearing this, Lu Qi raised his head and thought about it, nodded and said, "Okay, when?" ”

Lux replied, "About three o'clock." ”

"There's still an hour."

Lucci glanced at the clock, and the hands were already in the direction of two o'clock.

In other words, if you leave later, you will be able to start just in time for the festival to begin.

Faced with the offer to go out to see the celebration, Kashina, Wayne, Quinn, and Frey did not refuse.

And Fiona, after thinking about it for a while, decided to give herself a vacation.

Only Sana chose to stay at home.

Everyone knows that she has always disliked crowded places, and today is a holiday celebration, and there will only be more people outside.

So I didn't force her.

At about half past two, the group set off in high spirits.

It's just that no one noticed that Suanna in the courtyard watched the carriage go away, and a trace of envy flashed in her eyes.

The royal capital, on the street.

The lively atmosphere of the festival is simply overwhelming, and the streets are full of people and people.

Everyone had a happy smile on their faces and greeted each other with a happy holiday.

This made the carriage a little motionless, so everyone simply parked the carriage and switched to walking.

Lu Qi and the others chatted and walked around, and they also blended into the atmosphere of this festival.

On the way, it also attracted a lot of attention.

In a short time, they entered the street where the celebration was held.

This street and the square are separated in the middle, and people can only walk around from the periphery, which is already crowded with people, and the sound of conversation is everywhere.

Everyone is waiting for something.

Seeing so many people, Lu Qi must not be happy to go in and squeeze in.

Even he wasn't happy, let alone Lux and Fiona.

However, the problem was quickly resolved.

As soon as Lu Qi appeared, he immediately became the focus of the audience, which made many people's attention focus on him, and soon caused a little sensation.

"Look! It's His Royal Highness! ”

"Has His Royal Highness also come to see the celebration?"

"So handsome!"

"This is the first time I've been so close to His Highness, and he looks so good!"

The voices of people kept ringing out, and their eyes fell on Lu Qi.

A few days ago, the news of his deeds in the city of Edessa had been spread, through a newspaper campaign.

Now it can be said that no one in the king knows his name.

also made him, the prince who was already born out of nowhere, gain a wave of popularity.

And the girls around Lu Qi with outstanding temperament and different characteristics have also gained a lot of attention, and at this moment they are standing together, like a beautiful landscape.

The enthusiasm of the people made Lu Qi feel like a star, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously raised as he listened to the young and beautiful girls in the crowd praising him for his handsome words.

No wonder so many people want to be idols, who is not confused?

At this time, a soldier wearing armor and responsible for maintaining discipline stepped forward and said respectfully: "Your Royal Highness, there are seats for you and a few young ladies traveling with you. ”

Hearing this, Lu Qi nodded: "Don't worry, I'll go over later." ”

And looking at his expression, which obviously didn't get enough, all the women felt speechless.

Lux rolled her eyes and pulled his arm to walk over there: "Let's go, I don't feel ashamed." ”

Fiona glanced at him faintly, already walking towards her seat.

Wayne followed behind, and during this time, she had a good relationship with Fiona, and the two seemed to be quite compatible in terms of personality.

Kacina and Quinn glanced at Luqi helplessly, and followed Fiona.

Luci was dragged to the VIP seat, an open rooftop with a walled view of the plaza and street below.

There are also chairs for him to rest, tea to drink, and pastries to eat.

Before the celebration begins, everyone sits down to rest.

As he disappeared from view, there was less talk about him, and the conversation about the festival began again.

"When!!"

Just as people were talking, a loud gong sounded, which immediately attracted the attention of the people present.

"It's started, come and see!"

When Lux heard this, she immediately ran to the edge of the fence and lay there, looking down with big eyes flashing and shining.

The crowd also came to the wall.

From a distance, a long procession of gongs and drums came slowly.

In addition to gongs and drums, there are also people who hold a variety of musical instruments.

Many kinds of music are mixed together, but it is not harsh to listen to, but quite festive.

Soon, the crowd was buzzing with them.

And in these ranks, there are complainant drummers wearing heavy cloth clothes and two arms bare.

There are dancers with masks on their faces and dancing forward as the procession advances.

In the procession, there are also large cars, and on the cars are various statues related to the Yiqiu Festival.

In the back, there are some women wearing special costumes and dancing.

They were draped in a long skirt that was almost transparent, and their white and tender lower abdomen and belly were exposed.

The Demacian people dress more conservatively, and at this moment, this kind of dress is already very bold, and I am afraid that it can be seen on festivals.

There are many kinds of parades in this celebration, and Lu Qi is quite interesting to look at them one by one.

With the emergence of this celebration team, it also directly set off the atmosphere of this scene to a climax.

After the parade, there are many performances in the vacated square.

With the performances one by one, everyone's minds were immersed in the celebration.

After watching a few shows, Lu Qi glanced sideways at Miss Crownback.

At this time, Lux's little face was full of laughter, and from time to time she would give applause to the show.

It can be seen that she especially likes this kind of lively occasion.

Also happy with her is her best friend Kashina, the two girls are next to each other, very happy.

Wayne and Quinn are also watching the celebration of the royal capital for the first time, and they are also fascinated by watching it at the moment.

Fiona's gaze also fell on the square, watching the interesting show, with a chuckle on her lips.

That's when Luki thought of Suona.

She must have loved to be a part of the celebration, too.

In the hospital.

Suanna's slender and slender fingers gently played on the strings of the piano, but compared to the practice in the past, she seemed a little absent-minded today.

Even the strings are out of tune, but it's still beautiful.

After half a ring, she stopped her movements, looked up in the direction of the celebration, and thought to herself.

At this moment, Your Highness, they are already watching the celebration, right?

It's not that Sana doesn't like crowded places.

It's just that in a place with a lot of people, all kinds of voices are too noisy and can become very noisy.

So in addition to the recital, Sana didn't really want to face these sounds.

At the age of thirteen, Sana went to see her first celebration in Demacia, but at that time, a large number of people gathered together, and a large number of voices instantly poured into her sea of knowledge.

She was nearly knocked unconscious by the loud noises, and was soon taken home by her mother, who accompanied her.

She hasn't been to the celebration since.

However, she actually likes the lively celebrations as well.

She wanted to go and see it with everyone, and she wanted to see it with His Highness.

Closing her gaze, the loneliness in Suanna's eyes flickered, and then she smiled to comfort herself.

Even if you can't go with everyone, that's okay.

Hasn't she always been here like this?

But before that, she didn't have so many friends.

Thinking about it, Sana was still distracted.

"You're out of tune today, Saana."

At this moment, a voice that was thinking in her head suddenly sounded, making Sana stunned for a moment.

She looked towards the gate of the courtyard and saw Lu Qi slowly walking in, and immediately showed a questioning look.

It's like asking why I'm back now.

Lu Qi smiled: "Because today's celebration is very interesting, I can't wait to share it with you." ”

Sana was stunned, watched Lu Qi sit aside, then put her hand on Sanhua and began to talk about today's celebration.

At this moment, it seemed that a warm heat emerged from this man, dispelling the cold silence in her heart, and replacing it with a sweet joy.

Although I couldn't go to the celebration in person, I felt Luki's heart, along with his description.

Scenes of celebration also appeared in front of Suanna's eyes, and she seemed to feel the lively atmosphere.

Then, her watery eyes blinked, and her gaze fell on the side of Lucky's face.

His eyelashes are very long, his handsome face is a little casual and lazy, there is a hint of smile in his clear eyes, he looks extremely soft, and his rosy lips are hooked with charming curves, telling interesting scenes of celebration one scene after another.

Gradually, Saana's attention shifted from the celebration to the face.

Stared at it for many seconds.

Inexplicably, a surge of courage emerged.

This time, she didn't hesitate and stepped forward.

"Let's go."

"And then this time.???"

Lu Qi, who was explaining the celebration, suddenly felt a moist tenderness on his face, and suddenly made a few question marks.

Then he turned his head and looked at Sana in front of him.

Suanna's face was more seductive and rosy at the moment, and her watery eyes looked at Lu Qi without blinking, looking at his somewhat dull face, and suddenly laughed with a "poof".

Her sweet laughter reached Luki's ears through Tsuka.

Lu Qi came back to his senses, and there was a touch of helplessness on his face.

You two sisters like sneak attacks, don't they?

The warmth on his face seemed to be still a little left, and listening to Suanna's happy laughter, he decided not to pursue the sneak attack of this Nizi this time.

After laughing a few times, Sana looked at Lu Qi, her eyes flashing: "Your Highness, thank you for being willing to come back to accompany me." ”

Luki smiled, and then heard Sauna's voice again.

"I still want to hear it, celebration."

Lu Qi thought for a moment, "Where did I just talk about?" ”

Suanna smiled and said, "Speaking of a person, holding a torch, wow, a big fire erupted. ”

"Well, at this time."

Luci continued.

Then she felt her shoulders sink and it was Sana's head leaning up slightly, her eyes closed, as if enjoying the moment.

Finding that his voice had stopped, Sana urged in her heart.

"Go on."

“.”

So the courtyard was quiet only the sound of Lu Qi telling the interesting scenes of the celebration.

However, he didn't wait for much to say.

There was a sound of carriages moving, from far to near, and then slowly stopped.

Hearing this, Sana's body "tensed" and sat up straight, and then she heard the voices of Lux.

Her heart suddenly beat faster, and her little face instantly turned extremely red, and she looked a little nervous.

She tried her best to control her expression, but the slight rapid breathing betrayed the tension in her heart.

Soon, the women got out of the carriage and into the courtyard.

"Hey, Sister Suanna, are you teaching this guy to practice again?"

Lux saw the two sitting next to each other, and the Sanhua was placed sideways on their laps, and she didn't think much about it.

When Sana heard this, she immediately nodded as if she was pounding garlic, but her eyes were a little weak.

"What's the use of teaching him, this guy plays the piano badly to death."

Lux glanced at Luci in disgust.

Sana immediately picked up Sanhua and stood up away from Luki.

Kahina stepped forward and said with a smile on her face, "Sister, let me tell you, today's celebration is interesting. ”

Sana listened and nodded, with an expectant expression on her face.

It's not over yet.

But she already knew that everyone was coming back early to accompany her.

In my heart, I was immediately extremely moved.

At this point, Fiona glanced at Sana, and then at Luki, who was lying down and yawning, and couldn't help but squint.

Sensing the change in her expression, Suona's heart suddenly rose to her throat, and she didn't even dare to look at her.

I don't know why, in front of Miss Jianji, she always feels like she has done something wrong.

But Fiona just glanced at it, with a smile on her lips, and walked to the backyard.

I guess I went to sword practice.

Sana secretly breathed a sigh of relief in her heart.

At this time, Lux, Kahina, and Quinn were still surrounding her in the courtyard telling interesting stories about the celebration.

"Didn't you see that person, took a sip of water, and then wow, such a big fire erupted!"

"And that dance is also very good-looking, I also learned twice, sister, look"

"The penultimate show is also good, with the situation of dance, the events of King Oron and Arna are performed again."

Listening to the three girls chattering about the celebration beside them.

Sana's heart gradually calmed down, a smile appeared on her face, and she felt warm in her heart.

After a while, as the residual heat of the celebration passed, the courtyard returned to normal.

Lucci, Lux, and Wayne called Fiona, who was practicing swords in the backyard, and formed a pot of mahjong.

And Quinn, Frey, and Kacina went to fight the landlord.

Suanna's playing came from time to time, and the light music seemed to tell her joyful mood at the moment.

Night.

After dinner, in the backyard, in the hot spring pool.

As the white moonlight fell, everyone also soaked in the pool.

At this moment, they all raised their heads and looked at the sky.

Tonight, the moon is sparse, and only a full moon that seems to be brighter than usual hangs in the sky, surprisingly bright and surprisingly beautiful.

Under this moonscape, everyone's heart is as calm as water, immersed in this moonlight.

After soaking in the hot springs, everyone changed their clothes and came to the front yard.

At this time, the lanterns made during the day show their effect.

At this moment, I saw the candlelight through the rice paper on the inner layer of the lantern, reflecting the color of the entire lantern, and then under the moonlight, it exuded a soft halo.

These lanterns illuminate the yard brightly, and the effect is obviously better than that of the daytime, I don't know how many times.

The festive atmosphere is all at once.

All the women had twinkling eyes, looking at the lanterns they had made with their own hands, and their hearts were very happy.

When it was almost time, Lu Qi took out the mooncake gift box he had signed in the morning.

The women gathered around the table, looking at the round mooncakes one after another, very curious.

Lux picked one up and asked, "What is this?" ”

Lu Qi said: "Moon cakes, it can be regarded as a dessert, you can taste it." ”

"Mooncakes." Lux muttered, lifted the mooncake, opened one eye and closed the other, and then compared it with the moon overhead.

I found that there seems to be such a little common ground between the two.

When she held it in her hand, she could already smell the fragrance emanating from the mooncake.

So, I couldn't wait to take a bite.

What Lux ate was a mooncake with red bean filling, full of red bean sweetness, accompanied by a soft shell of the mooncake, which was immediately praised by her.

"It's delicious!"

The rest of the women also chose a moon cake and took a bite lightly.

Later, they found that the fillings in these mooncakes were different, some were red beans, some were jujube paste, and some were custard.

But there is one thing in common, and that is that they are all delicious.

It seems to be a little more delicious than the dessert made by Lu Qi.

While admiring the moon and eating moon cakes, the sense of festival that belongs to Lu Qi's hometown suddenly came up.

【Qualification +1】

[Congratulations on the host qualification being upgraded to 60 (one in a thousand)]

The moon cake was down, and Lu Qi also received a message from the system, and his qualifications were improved.

For example, these rare and exotic fruits have the effect of improving qualifications, but the more he usually eats, the effect becomes a lot weaker.

In fact, he adds these rare fruits to his daily cooking.

In other words, in fact, Lu Qi is not the only one whose qualifications are improving.

And this, except for Lux, who only knows how to eat, the rest of the women are faintly felt.

Because since they often stayed by Lu Qi's side, they felt that whether it was their usual understanding of some tricks or the improvement of their strength after training, they had become a lot faster.

In the same way, some of the obvious ones can be felt after soaking in the medicated bath and the wine bath.

Luki never said this explicitly.

But they were all silently grateful.

There are a lot of mooncakes in the mooncake gift box, and you will definitely not be able to eat them all at once, even if there is a heavyweight player like Lux, you can't finish it.

Of course, there are still some of these to stay.

Luci was going to send a little to his father, his eldest brother, the third and fourth, to the old woman and Aunt Ogesha, and to those whom he knew better.

After all, it is the Mid-Autumn Festival, and everyone eats some mooncakes, which symbolizes a little better.

In Lu Qi's hometown, every Mid-Autumn Festival, relatives will prepare a mooncake cut according to the number of people in the morning.

Then give a piece to no one to eat, which means reunion.

When he was almost done, Luki pulled out the highlight of the evening.

The women looked at the lantern-like objects, but they were noticeably thinner, and only a piece of white rice paper wrapped in them, and they were quite curious.

Lux asked, "What is this?" ”

"Kong Ming lantern."

Lu Qi smiled, handed the notes to the girls, and then said, "In my hometown, it is said that as long as you write your wish on this note, and then put it in the Kong Ming lantern and send it to the sky, this wish will come true." ”

The women only regarded the hometown he said as the town he used to live in, and they didn't expect it to be another world.

But when they heard what he said, they were all the first to hear it, and they were all very interested.

Lux blinked with big eyes, looked at Kong Ming Lantern and said curiously, "Why is it called Kong Ming Lantern?" ”

"Because that's what everybody else calls it."

“.” Lux felt that he had a point, so she asked, "Can it really fly?" ”

Lu Qi smiled: "You'll know later, write down your wish first." ”

Hearing this, all the women picked up their pens one after another, looked at the blank note, and fell into thought.

Only Lux, who didn't even think about it, just wrote it on paper, and it seemed that she had written a lot.

What are "I hope to have endless food", "I hope to grow up quickly (breast)", "I hope I will receive a special gift for my birthday", "I hope that the Royal Academy will go out of business", "I hope that everyone's hopes will come true". ”

As Lux continued to write, the rest of the people also began to put pen to paper, confirming their wishes.

Lu Qi wrote "I hope it can be rotten forever" on a piece of paper, and then pasted it on the inside of the Kong Ming lantern.

At this time, he saw that Lux was still writing, and the note was almost full, and he couldn't help laughing: "I can only make one wish, and if I have more, it won't work." ”

"Huh?"

Lux was stunned for a moment, "Why didn't you say it earlier." ”

Lu Qile said: "Who knew that you were so greedy, could it be that you could make your wish come true?" ”

Lux immediately raised her chin: "Isn't it okay! ”

Even so, she stopped writing and turned her face a little tangled.

Of so many wishes, I can only write one

But each of these seemed to be quite important to her.

Lux didn't know which one to choose.

At this time, Fiona was the first to write, and like Lu Qi, put it in the Kong Ming lantern.

She wrote "to become the strongest swordsman in the future".

This was followed by Suanna, who wrote "I hope more people like my music".

Then there is Kahina, who writes "I hope to become a super powerful knight and then protect His Highness".

Quinn wrote, "I hope to be as powerful as His Highness."

Wayne wrote, "I hope I can get revenge and kill the demon with my own hands."

Frey writes "I hope Wayne can be happy".

Seeing that the wishes they had written were all put into the lanterns, the anxious Lux knew that she couldn't be entangled anymore.

So I chose one, the wish I wanted the most at the moment, put it in the Kong Ming lantern, and pasted it.

Lu Qi asked curiously, "What did you write?" ”

Lux glanced at her vigilantly, protected Kong Ming's lantern, and snorted, "I won't tell you." ”

Lu Qi sneered: "Then I won't tell you what I wrote." ”

Lux laughed: "What you write must continue to rot." ”

Lucci: "."

Is there such a good guess?

Seeing his expression on his face, all the women also laughed.

Yuna also wrote a wish, put it in the Kong Ming lantern, and pasted it.

However, no one knows what she wrote.

As Lu Qi lit the fires in these Kong Ming lanterns one by one, and then, something magical happened.

I saw these lanterns begin to slowly float towards the sky, swaying and swaying, towards the moon, flying farther and farther.

"It's flying!"

Lux's eyes widened, looking at the soft Kong Ming lanterns, dragging their wishes away, and her eyes flashed with joy.

Similarly, at this moment, everyone in the courtyard raised their heads, looked at the lanterns that flew farther and farther, and smiled.

Under the bright moonlight, these lanterns carry people's wishes and are very conspicuous.
