Chapter 184 Mo Shanglang
Starting from New Year's Eve until the Lantern Festival on the 15th day of the first lunar month, the Spring Festival is finally over.
There were sounds of firecrackers and laughter all the way.
In the old streets of Chang'an City, there are experienced craftsmen from all walks of life, and the most indispensable one is tailors.
So long before the Lantern Festival, Lin Chen went to the tailor and ordered two sets of new clothes.
He was waiting outside the door.
After an estimated five or six minutes, Ke Yue changed her clothes and came out.
Even Lin Chen was stunned the moment he opened the door.
The soft satin silk hung down layer by layer. Although it was thick, it carried the wind when walking, showing a sense of elegance.
Yingying opened her long sleeves and caught the moonlight in her pockets.
His vision is indeed good.
Red clothes complement white hair best.
Since the rise of Hanfu culture in recent years, Chang'an, as a city with a thousand-year-old historical name, has naturally taken this trip. Little girls wearing skirts and black silk can be seen everywhere in the city.
Lin Chen simply drew the patterns and selected the fabrics himself, and asked the tailor to cut out two pieces of ready-made clothes, just in time to wear them out during the Lantern Festival.
Antique scenery can be found everywhere in Chang'an. He had seen it several times on the street. The pretty little girl in a skirt was holding a fan and leaning on the pillar. She was smiling. He took a photo and sent it to the public. Show off the dynamics.
Lin Chen thought that if the boy wore this Hanfu, he would look very good, but he did not expect that the final effect would be so amazing.
So Lin Chen couldn't find any suitable adjectives for a while, and was so stunned that he only stumbled out a sentence.
"Xiao Yue'er...you are so beautiful."
Ke Yue walked over slowly, the long hem of her clothes fluttering in line with her steps, and the dark jacquard pattern of Manzhu Shahua on the bright red fabric was looming as the light continued to change.
The long hair on the back of the head was also tied up with an embroidered headband of the same color.
It just made her lips look a bit gorgeous.
She was still wearing her old gold-rimmed crystal glasses, her peach-blossom eyes seemed to be smiling, and she was holding a folding fan in her hand.
For a moment, I couldn't tell whether I should describe it as the evil vampire butler or the thousand-year-old monster that conforms to Eastern aesthetics.
So I only got two words: "good-looking."
"This size is quite suitable." Ke Yue said, "But how do you know my clothing size?"
Custom-made clothes require the tailor to measure them personally, but Ke Yue had no idea when Lin Chen had made such a dress for her.
"I'm an art student, so I can naturally tell the proportions of the human body's structure at a glance." Lin Chen smiled and held the young man's hand.
"Let's go."
Today is the Lantern Festival, and they are going to Tang Dynasty Furong Garden to see the lantern show.
There were a lot of tourists in the garden, all attracted by the light show.
It was still daytime and the light show hadn't started yet, so I took advantage of the clear sky after the snow to take a stroll around the garden.
Naturally, many people noticed Lin Chen and Ke Yue.
It is true that the young man is too handsome.
The main color of Lin Chen's robe is moon white, with dark patterns of light green bamboo leaves on it, as well as cirrus patterns on the collar and cuffs that are thinly raised with gold thread.
The temperament comes out of the dust like the bright moon and the cool breeze.
The green bamboo is light and elegant, which suits him very well.
It makes him unlike this mortal.
Needless to say, Ke Yue has a pair of cold and beautiful peach blossom eyes that are full of sadness, and her teardrop mole is just right.
A folding fan was waved open, and it was holding a romantic young man who was unparalleled in the world.
They visited the garden together.
When the sky gradually darkened, at seven o'clock, the lights in the entire Furong Garden came to life on time.
"Crack!"
Before the tourists could react, the lights were lit up layer by layer.
So those ordinary lanterns during the day finally became eye-catching, and they were actually a bit more lively than this garden.
Phoenixes, wandering dragons, and the twelve zodiac signs are arranged in different areas. Some mythological figures and even characters from famous novels are also tied into various styles of screen lights.
The ten-mile covered bridge is illuminated by red lights.
Hibiscus silk flowers and birds are floating everywhere in the pond.
A bright moon was reflected inside.
The moon in the water, the flowers in the mirror.
There are red silk ribbons floating in the open space, lanterns are hung on them, and lantern riddles are written underneath, just waiting for the tourists to guess.
Lin Chen and Ke Yue also happened to be passing by here, so they joined in the excitement to guess the lantern riddles.
With their cleverness and tacit understanding, they simply killed the other opponents to pieces.
Of course, the final prize fell into the hands of these two young people without any suspense.
Under the envious gazes of everyone, Lin Chen took away the most beautiful, delicate and expensive lantern in the entire lantern show.
The night got darker and the moon gradually moved to its highest point.
Snowflakes actually started to fall in the sky.
So Lin Chen opened a silk umbrella, and the two of them came to the wind and rain covered bridge together.
There are relatively few people here and it is quiet.
The lantern with beads was placed on the railing.
In the flickering candlelight, light snow swirled in with the wind.
"The Lantern Festival in ancient times was the most lively, because on this day, ladies from wealthy families could leave their boudoirs, go out to play unscrupulously, and even...have private meetings with their beloved husbands under the moonlight."
Lin Chen turned to look at Ke Yue, with a smile that couldn't be hidden in his eyebrows.
“So, the Lantern Festival can also be regarded as Valentine’s Day in the traditional sense.”
After Ke Yue heard this, she suddenly felt bad.
What bad idea does this cunning fox have up its sleeve?
Sure enough:
"Look at this garden, there are basically couples who come in pairs."
He lowered his eyes, his eyes watery and pitiful.
"Xiao Yue'er, how about you... put on women's clothes again and we pretend to be a couple?"
Ke Yue's appearance in women's clothing last time was still hidden in his heart, lingering in his mind.
The young man dressed in red today brought back his memory.
Ke Yue glanced at Lin Chen sideways, "Then why do I have to be the one to dress up? I think Mr. Lin's appearance is so endearing, and I thought he would look better if he wore women's clothes."
< br>
...good question.
"Uh..." Lin Chen had an idea, "Because, I am taller than you."
Ke Yue: "..."
I was speechless.
However, he saw the young man suddenly leaning towards him, and without noticing, Lin Chen was pushed to sit on the bench next to the pillar.
As a result, the young man's figure was taller than him.
Ke Yue leaned over, her hair falling to her chest. She used one end of the folding fan to lift Lin Chen's chin, her peach blossom eyes were passionate and ruthless.
"Mr. Lin." Her voice was hoarse and beguiling, "So what if...?"
Lin Chen's heart was beating fast because of those eyes.
He sighed softly.
"It is said that there are trees in the mountains, and the trees have branches, and the heart is happy for you, but you don't know it."
There seemed to be a bright moon hidden in Ru Shui's eyes, and he smiled.
"It's a pity that I, Mr. Mo Shang, really don't know, or I just pretend not to know."
Ke Yue was a little startled.
The wind blew her hair.
The band that originally bound her hair had fallen off at some point, and her hair spread out and started flying.
It turned out that the roots were shining white with moonlight, which was better than the wind and snow.
