Tanhualang

But after a while, Cao Xiaoyu came in with a steaming bowl of glutinous rice balls.Shen Jing personally took it and put it in front of Zhao Heng, then got up and went out again: "I'll get some snacks."

Shen Jing first took a plate of snacks from the steamer and took them to Cao Xiaoyu's room, put the snacks in front of Xiaozhou, turned her head and apologized to Cao Xiaoyu in a low voice: "...Eldest sister, I'm afraid I won't be able to go out with you tonight .”

Cao Xiaoyu replied in a low voice: "Just go and get busy if you have something to do. Don't worry about Xiaozhou."

Shen Jing nodded: "Then I'll go out first."

He returned to the room with another plate of snacks, only to see Zhao Heng sitting alone at the table waiting, with two bowls of glutinous rice balls on the table.Seeing him come in, push a bowl in front of him.

Shen Jing sat down opposite, put the snacks in front of Zhao Heng, and looked down at the glutinous rice balls in front of her: "Your Highness, I have already eaten."

Zhao Heng filled a glutinous rice ball from a bowl: "It's been a long time since we ate together, so why don't you eat some with me?"

The two chatted a few words while eating glutinous rice balls. It was nothing more than Cao Xiao's skill in making glutinous rice balls, and gossip about the severe cold weather these days. They tacitly avoided the recent situation between the DPRK and China, and Zhao Du's illness.

When they were about to finish eating, there was a noise from the door of the room. The two looked up and saw the door was pushed open and Xiao Zhou squeezed in, with a piece of cake sticking to the corner of his mouth.

Seeing this, Shen Jing smiled and said, "Why is Xiaozhou here? Have you finished eating snacks?"

Pan Xiaozhou leaned against the door, first glanced at Zhao Heng timidly, then looked at Shen Jing, and said with aggrieved expression: "...Little uncle, won't you accompany me to see the lamp?"

Before the words fell, the eye sockets were already flushed.

Shen Jing hurriedly stepped forward to hug him and coaxed him: "...Xiao Zhou, don't cry."

Before the coaxing was over, Cao Xiaoyu knocked on the door and came in, saluted Zhao Heng, and said with an uneasy face: "This child, I just put a bowl and dish in there..."

As he said that, he was about to take Xiao Zhou from Shen Jing's arms, and reprimanded softly: "Xiao Zhou, I didn't tell you, my uncle is busy right now, so don't pester him."

When Pan Xiaozhou heard the words, tears welled up in his two big round eyes, and he cried aloud with grievance: "Xiaozhou is not bad... my uncle promised to take me to see the lamp—"

While crying, he hugged Shen Jing's neck and refused to let go.

Seeing this, Cao Xiaoyu was a little annoyed, and raised her hand to hug him by force.Shen Jing stopped Cao Xiaoyu from moving, patted Pan Xiaozhou and coaxed in a low voice: "Xiaozhou won't cry, Xiaozhou won't cry. Ask your mother and Brother Xiaomeng to accompany you out, okay?"

As soon as the words fell, Zhao Heng stood up and walked to his side. While patting the boat, he lowered his head and said to Shen Jing: "Gu shouldn't have robbed him of his little uncle. If that's the case, let's all give in. You take the boat, Let's go out together."

Under Cao Xiaoyu's uneasy and dare not speak eyes, Shen Jing hugged Pan Xiaozhou and followed Zhao Heng into the broad carriage.

Pan Xiaozhou had never seen such a spacious and luxurious carriage, and he looked around with his eyes as soon as he entered.Shen Jing put him on the seat. He was still a little cautious at first, but he couldn't help his childish nature for a moment. He touched here and there, and pointed to the chisel pattern carved on the roof beam, and whispered to Shen Jing: "Little uncle, Look at the little tiger lying there, it looks so scary."

Shen Jing touched his head and smiled, "That's not a tiger. That's called Chi."

"What is Chi?"

"It's the son of the dragon." Shen Jing explained to him in a low voice, "The dragon has nine sons, each of which is different. This one is called Chi, and it squats there, guarding the door for everyone, and eats the bad things that make trouble."

Pan Xiaozhou seemed to understand, but still nodded, and nodded in a childish voice: "I know, he is disobedient. Mother said, don't eat indiscriminately, or you will have a stomachache."

Zhao Heng was listening, and couldn't help laughing at Shen Jing: "If you have an uncle, you must have a nephew."

As soon as I arrived on the street in the carriage, I heard cheers and laughter outside.When Pan Xiaozhou heard this, he refused to sit still and knelt by the window, pulling the curtain to look out.Shen Jing supported him with one hand, while listening to his chatter, she didn't bother to turn her head to talk to Zhao Heng.

After making such a fuss for a while, Pan Xiaozhou turned his head, his eyes were full of joy and he pulled Shen Jing out to look out: "Look, little uncle, there is a little tiger lantern! There is also a little rabbit lantern!"

Before Shen Jing could say yes, Zhao Heng had already raised the curtain of the car beside him, and waved to Wei Zheng outside: "Stop."

After speaking, he stood up, put on his cloak and said to Shen Jing: "Go out for a trip, you can't return empty-handed, take the boat to buy two lamps."

It was the Shangyuan Festival, and there were many lights outside, sparkling carriages and horses, and crowds of people. If such a carriage stopped in the middle of the road, it would not be an exaggeration to say that it was ordered by thousands of people.

Shen Jing was worried, so she glanced at him, wondering: "...ask Captain Wei to buy it, just hand it over."

Zhao Heng glanced at Pan Xiaozhou who was full of anticipation, and suddenly smiled and bent over to hug him: "You wait, I'll take him."

Before Shen Jing could stop her, she hugged the boat and got out of the carriage.

Shen Jing raised the corner of the curtain to peek out, and saw that Pan Xiaozhou pushed Zhao Heng away with his hands at first, and looked back at Shen Jing in the car, but was coaxed by Zhao Heng, and carried him to the front of the lamp stand in three steps. Then he forgot where his uncle was, put one arm around Zhao Heng's neck, and pointed at the various lanterns hanging by the roadside with the other, almost jumping up in the crook of Zhao Heng's arms with joy.

One, one, and one went from the lantern booth to the puppet booth, and then to the sugar figurine booth. In a blink of an eye, Wei Zheng and Xiaoyou's hands were full, until finally they couldn't even see the figure, and Shen Jing had no choice but to let go. Car curtain, drink tea in the car.

It took another quarter of an hour before Y was set off by one big and one small. X. d. j.Lianzi came in, followed by Xiaoyou and Wei Zheng, who piled the purchased things on the couch with Pan Xiaozhou, who was crazy with joy.

Zhao Heng hung the two lanterns in his hand on the wall of the car, and then sat down opposite, smiling at Pan Xiaozhou holding Shen Jing, and chanting to Shen Jing like a few Jiazhen: "Look, little uncle, this is Little Tiger Candy, This is a little tiger mask, this is a little monkey mask—”

It's a lively night.

It was the first time for Pan Xiaozhou to watch the lanterns. Although he couldn't walk outside, he danced happily. He raised the curtain of the car from time to time and asked Shen Jing to watch the fireworks outside. Shen Jing was dazzled.In my ears are the sound of crackling fireworks from outside the car, and laughter everywhere; when I look back occasionally, I will meet Zhao Heng's gentle and smiling gaze, which makes Shen Jing feel dazed for a moment, and almost forgets that Jinxi is He Xi.

The carriage wandered along the street for an unknown amount of time, and it was almost at the gate of the city. Xiao Zhou, who had been happy all night, gradually became sleepy, and dozed off in Shen Jing's arms.Shen Jing patted him to sleep, and at the same time pulled the leather mattress on the couch to wrap him tightly, but after a while, the little man in his arms began to snore a little.

Zhao Heng chuckled beside him and sighed: "This child is really happy."

Shen Jing gently put Pan Xiaozhou on the couch, covered him with a mattress, and said in a low voice: "How happy can you be without your father before one year old?"

Zhao Heng was silent for a moment, and said in a low voice: "Both parents are alive, and I have never seen how happy they are. Ming'er is about his age, and has never dared to fall asleep beside outsiders like this. I have never seen him smile like a small boat." So happy."

Shen Jing listened silently.

The carriage gradually stopped at this time.

Zhao Heng raised the curtain of the car and looked outside, then suddenly stood up, lowered his head and said to Shen Jing: "Go out for a walk?"

He looked out hesitantly.

Zhao Heng bent down and picked out two masks from Pan Xiaozhou's pile of treasures, kept one for himself, and handed the other to Shen Jing: "Wearing this, you won't be afraid, right?"
