Chapter 669 Lantern Festival
When Lu Qiyan arrived home, Xia Mingyue was making Lantern Festival at home.
Go away the Lantern Festival.
Piece the prepared Lantern Festival stuffing into small balls, and then shake the small balls continuously in larger baskets to make the Lantern Festival stuffing fully coated with glutinous rice flour.
As the basket continues to shake, the glutinous rice flour is stained with the Lantern Festival, and the Lantern Festival also becomes larger and larger. When the Lantern Festival reaches a certain amount, Xia Mingyue puts the Lantern Festival in the small basket next to it and saves it, and prepares to cook it at any time.
Three kinds of Lantern Festival stuffing were made.
Eight treasure fillings, black sesame fillings, and red bean fillings are placed in small baskets with paper pastes, piled up like a hill.
When Lu Qiyan came back, Xia Mingyue smiled and said, "Are you back?"
"Yes." Lu Qiyan took out the selected lanterns for Xia Mingyue to show, "See, is it good?"
Several lanterns, in the shape of lotus, rabbit, revolving lanterns, and this year's zodiac sign, and the ox.
Each lantern is exquisitely made and looks very beautiful. "It's so beautiful." Xia Mingyue sighed with the exquisite craftsmanship, and couldn't wait to put the lantern on the table, insert a small wax, and after lit it, she looked at it carefully, and couldn't help but praise it again, "It's so beautiful!"
"You look better." Lu Qiyan answered with a smile. "I'm sorry." Xia Mingyue smiled and blew out the candle and put down the lanterns. "After eating Lantern Festival, how about we go to the street to watch the lanterns?"
"Okay." Lu Qiyan nodded, "I heard that there are dragon and lion dances on the street tonight, fireworks to watch, and you can even guess riddles. It's very lively."
Today is the 14th day. Although it is not the day of the Lantern Festival, the vegetarian day of the Lantern Festival is from the 14th to the 16th day of the first lunar month, and it is lively for three days.
Go as soon as you say it.
Xia Mingyue made all the remaining Lantern Festivals and told Yinqiao to cook them for food, while she changed her clothes.
The Lantern Festival was cooked quickly and served with the Lantern Festival, as well as some other meals.
Exquisite and compact, the soup filled with small dumplings, pork, pork skin and water, and some shrimp paste are added to it, which tastes delicious, fresh and delicious.
The Xiaolongbao is paired with a few refreshing and exquisite side dishes, and then a bowl of soft and delicious, but with a little hardness and chewyness, and the filling is extremely sweet and fragrant...
Lu Qiyan and Xia Mingyue both ate it very happily.
Just...
Lu Qiyan put down the bowl and looked up, "Why didn't Yunji?"
"We are all going to go out to stroll and watch the lanterns. Where do you think Yunji will be?" Xia Mingyue smiled very cunningly.
"No wonder." Lu Qiyan smiled secretly.
No wonder Xia Yunji did not rush out the moment he took out the lantern...
But that's fine, I went out alone with my wife, and there was no extra annoying person around me, but only the intimacy between the two.
Very good!
If Wu Jin hadn't followed...
Seeing Wu Jin following Xia Mingyue closely, holding a rabbit lantern in his mouth, and even Xia Mingyue took care of Wu Jin from time to time, Lu Qiyan suddenly felt that his dream of two people kissing and watching the lanterns had broken.
But looking at Xia Mingyue smiling happily at this time, her smile was even more beautiful than Haoyue in the sky, Lu Qiyan's originally drooping corners raised again.
After all, nothing is more important than the lady’s happiness, right?
Lu Qiyan smiled and grabbed Xia Mingyue's hand and walked forward.
Watch dragon and lion dance, enjoy fireworks, guess riddles, watch shadow puppets, buy faces, play quilts, draw sugar paintings...
The two of them had a lot of fun playing, and the smile on their faces almost overflowed.
And here, Xia Yunji was already at the gate of Fan Mansion and wandered around for 101.
He came to invite Fan Jinglan to go out to enjoy the lanterns together.
When I came, I was full of ambition and was majestic, but when I arrived at the gate of Fan Mansion, I hesitated and did not dare to continue to move forward.
Although I have been here before, I have always been here to deliver things, and it is the first time that I have been inviting Fan Jinglan to go out.
Xia Yunji felt that he needed to behave appropriately, have sufficient reasons, and do not seem to be beyond the rules, and he had to leave a good impression in front of the Fan family.
So this wording becomes very important.
"I am General Xia Yunji of Shenhu. I want to ask Mrs. Fan if she is at home. I want to invite Mrs. Fan..."
"I can't help but say that I am General Shenhu. Will it seem like I'm showing off my official position and contributions?"
"I am Xia Yunji. I dare to ask Mrs. Fan if she is at home. I want to invite Mrs. Fan to enjoy the lanterns together..."
"It seems not good. Come and invite Mrs. Fan. If you don't say anything to Mrs. Fan, will it be inappropriate? Moreover, he has not officially met Mrs. Fan and took Mrs. Fan out directly, which will seem a bit unruly."
" Should we ask Mrs. Fan first? Visit Mrs. Fan first, and then ask if we can ask Mrs. Fan to go out to enjoy the lanterns together?"
"But what if Mrs. Fan disagrees?"
The more Xia Yunji thought about it, the more he felt that the method and wording were appropriate at this time, just like an ant on a hot pan, constantly spinning around in place.
"What are you doing?"
The voice of inquiry sounded, and Xia Yunji was shocked and hurriedly said, "No, I didn't do anything..."
But when he saw that the person who was inquiring was not someone else, but Fan Jinglan, who was poking his head out of the wall, he narrowed his eyes and smiled, "It's you."
"Of course it was me." Fan Jinglan blinked, "Someone came to pass the message just now, saying that someone was wandering around outside the door sneakily, and I was a little curious. The whole capital city was What kind of bold people would dare to wander outside the Fan Mansion? I never thought that it was you. "
"After saying that, you were wandering around outside and talking to yourself. What exactly are you going to do?" "
"I..." Xia Yunji grabbed his ears with a little embarrassed, took out the lantern that had just been hidden behind him, and plucked up the courage, "I want to invite Mrs. Fan to go to the street to enjoy the lanterns!" "
Appreciating the lanterns?
Fan Jinglan was stunned and smiled, "Then why didn't you come in, but kept paced around outside?"
"I..." Xia Yunji felt even more embarrassed, "I'm afraid that Mrs. Fan or Lord Fan would disagree, and I'm afraid that you are not at home, and I'm afraid that if you say something wrong, you will leave a bad impression..."
Fan Jinglan, "..."
He is very honest and speaks very straightforward, just like hesitant...
Fan Jinglan couldn't help laughing.
Xia Yunji became more and more uneasy and spoke timidly, "Did I say the wrong thing?"
"No." Fan Jinglan smiled and narrowed her eyes, "I just had never seen you look like this before."
Xia Yunji, who she saw before, was brave, decisive, straightforward and cheerful, not afraid of the world, but now she is looking forward and hesitant.
It's really...
It's so cute! "Is that true?" Xia Yunji smiled and waved his hand indifferently, "It's okay, you'll get used to it when you look at it more in the future."
Fan Jinglan, "..."
If you say this, will this state be normal in the future?
But it's good, it's not impossible to see such a cute Xia Yunji from time to time.
Fan Jinglan's mind moved slightly. She originally poked her head out of the wall. She climbed up to the wall and exerted force. She jumped down from the wall and landed steadily in front of Xia Yunji. "Let's go." "Where do you go?" Xia Yunji blurted out.
"Don't you want to invite me to see the lantern? I agree..."
When Fan Jinglan finished speaking, Fan Hongyu's head poked out from the wall and said in a loud voice, "I don't agree!"
"Brother!" Fan Jinglan stomped her feet in a hurry.
"Unless you take me with you!" Fan Hongyu offered his own conditions.
No mistakes, one poem, one post, one content, one in 6, one book, one bar, one read!
It is impossible to simply stop two people from watching the lanterns, but he can take a step back and follow the two people. This will not only satisfy the two people to watch the lanterns, but also ensure the safety of the younger sister, and the best of both worlds!
Fan Jinglan, "..."
Xia Yunji, "..."
Xia Yunji had no right to refuse, and remained silent and only looked at Fan Jinglan. After thinking for a while, Fan Jinglan nodded, "Okay."
"Then let's go." Fan Hongyu nodded happily, and climbed over the wall like Fan Jinglan just now.
But Fan Hongyu's skill is slightly worse than Fan Jinglan's sensitivity, and he is not as light as he lands.
Fan Hongyu didn't care about these details, so he took a lantern from Xia Yunji and happily took the lead, "Let's go."
"Go."
Fan Jinglan and Xia Yunji followed side by side.
The concierge at the gate of Fan Mansion next to him looked at the figures of the three people gradually moving away, and was stunned, raised his eyes and looked at the door beside him.
If his cognition is not a problem, the vermilion red wooden board next to him, with golden copper nails embedded on it, should be the gate.
This door should be used to leave.
It should be...
The night is getting darker and the streets are getting busier.
The moon rises to the willows, and the bright moonlight pours over the ground. Everything in the world seems to be covered with a thin layer of veil, beautiful.
The Lantern Festival is the time for young men and women to meet and meet and get to know each other. At this time, there are many young men and women in pairs, and everyone is used to it.
Those who walk together like Xia Yunji, Fan Jinglan and Fan Hongyu are really a bit conspicuous, while those who walk together like Xia Mingyue, Lu Qiyan and Wu Jin are even more amazing.
When the five people and one dog met on the street, they walked together. The man was young and talented, with a good temperament, and the woman was dignified and beautiful, and she was as beautiful as a flower, which made people look at her and it was difficult to move away.
Especially, these five people and one dog held many lanterns in their hands.
These lanterns are not lanterns sold on the street, but lanterns hung in front of each shop for guests to guess the riddles.
This can be inferred that these people not only have good appearance and good temperament, but more importantly, they are talented!
How can this person be so perfect?
For a moment, many eyes that were originally just looking at each other gradually became hotter, and some people were even eager to try it out, thinking about whether to chat with me.
But when he saw the gentle and elegant man with a strong and stern aura, he carefully tightened his cloak for the beautiful and elegant woman next to him, put his hands beside him, and gently vented his breath to keep him warm...
The young man who looked sunny cared the fruit intimately for the bright sunshine girl next to him, and used a handkerchief to help him wipe the candy stains on the corner of his mouth, some people who had some thoughts suppressed all the thoughts that had already risen.
But there are also some people who turn their eyes to Fan Hongyu, who is as gentle as jade.
Around the Lantern Festival, if you can go out with your friends to enjoy the lanterns, and you are alone, you must have never married.
There is a chance!
So, some women hesitated for a moment, couldn't hold back their thoughts, and walked to Fan Hongyu and others.
The purse on his body was untied and quietly threw it to the side.
The delicate and cute little wood carving I just bought pretended to fall on the ground inadvertently.
Walking well, when he was by his side, he stumbled on his left foot and fell on his body.
Following him all the time, he suddenly reached out and patted him. When he turned his head, he pretended to admit the wrong person with surprise...
So, the street did not go much farther, Fan Hongyu had already encountered an accident in N+1 and greeted several women.
The more I talked, the more fierce Fan Hongyu frowned.
It was not until he met a woman who came to him for help and asked him if he had picked up a handkerchief on the way, that Fan Hongyu finally couldn't help but open his mouth, "I haven't come to the street these days. The public security in this capital is so bad. You need to ask the Imperial City Department and ask them how they usually do things!"
Fan Jinglan, "..."
Finally I know why my elder brother has never gotten married at such a big age.
Even the iron chain tied by the Moon Old can be cut off by him!
The capital city is lively and there is no curfew. At this time, there are still carriages coming in and out at the city gate.
A very inconspicuous, gray carriage entered the city. Seeing the main street congestion, it shuttled through the path.
When you get into the carriage, you can still feel the bustling hustle and bustle of the capital during the Lantern Festival.
The people in the carriage seemed to be unable to help it, and lifted the curtain of the carriage and revealed its face.
The face is handsome and the eye sockets are deep. It is Xiao Luoan.
But at this time, Xiao Luoan's face turned pale, and his lips were not very bloody, and he looked extremely weak.
At this time, the action of lifting the curtain touched the wound, Xiao Luoan couldn't help but "hiss" and frowned. "Master." Cen Ying asked with concern, "Be careful."
"It's okay." Xiao Luoan smiled, "It's just that I haven't seen such a lively scene for a long time, and I'm a little lost in my mind."
"Tomorrow is the Lantern Festival, and it will probably be so lively these days."
Cen Ying thought for a while and suggested, "I'll buy a lantern for you."
Off Lantern Festival comes out, and I must buy a lantern. When Xiao Luoan comes back tonight, he needs to go to the palace to meet the emperor first, and then he will be recuperating in the palace. He must not be able to stroll on the street to enjoy the lanterns.
Buying one is also a perfect thought.
"Okay."
Xiao Luoan nodded, paused, and said, "Buy two."
