The opening date of Hexingju's new shop was set on the sixteenth day of the first lunar month. It was the tenth day of the first lunar month as agreed with the shop assistants, but this plan can't keep up with the rapid changes. Who can budget for the New Year's Eve? , Lu Yunchen waved his hand, let's just reopen after the Lantern Festival.

It coincides with the Lantern Festival, and there is a temple fair in the town. Lu Yunchen thought about taking Qin Muyan to the temple fair to be lively and lively. Those who followed him back and forth these days did not have a serious New Year's Eve, so he took advantage of this moment to wander around Otherwise, when the shop opens, it will be as busy as a spinning top again.

The night before, Lu Yunchen shared this idea with Qin Muyan. When he heard that he was able to go to the temple fair, the little husband's eyes lit up, his brows curved with joy, and he couldn't help being happy in his heart. He lay on the kang and tossed and turned excitedly for a long time. Before falling asleep, it was Lu Yunchen who wrapped him up in the bed and "threatened" him. If he didn't sleep well, he would wake up without glutinous rice balls.

Turning in the morning, when Lu Yunchen woke up, the little husband was still sleeping snortingly, and the earth was burning warmly in the room. Qin Muyan had kicked on the quilt all night, and just after the quilt was tucked in, when he turned over, two thin Liu's big white legs got out of the bed restlessly, Lu Yunchen was afraid that he would catch a cold, so he had to tirelessly "kick me to cover", and fell asleep at dawn. At this moment, the rooster had just crowed for the first time, and his biological clock was stable. Woke up again.

Lu Yunchen squeezed Qin Muyan's soft cheeks as if "to vent his anger", "Little things can really torment people."

The little husband curled his lips, without even raising his eyelids, turned around to face the inside, and then fell asleep, leaving his husband a back view.This guy was so used to getting up all over the bed, Lu Yunchen couldn't stand it if he really wanted to provoke him, he stretched straight, touched his clothes from the top of the kang, put them on, got off the kang and walked to the kitchen.

Although in this place, during the Lantern Festival, every household would also eat glutinous rice balls. A few days ago, there were stalls selling glutinous rice balls all over the street, but just to be on the safe side, Lu Yunchen still wanted to make it himself.

He only mixed black sesame as a filling, mixed with lard suet and sugar, kneaded it into a dough, wrapped it with a layer of wet glutinous glutinous rice flour, kneaded it into pink and white balls, and waited for the water to boil , Just like the dumplings, pour them all into the pot.

Soon, the white glutinous rice balls surfaced, and the white mist in the pot was billowing and overflowing, mixed with the faint fragrance of black sesame seeds, which penetrated into people's noses, making people's whole body sweet.

The stewed glutinous rice balls are glutinous but not sticky, with a thin layer of skin, white as fat, slippery, soft and sweet, and when you bite open, the delicate sesame filling can’t wait to flow out from the opening. The fragrance of glutinous rice and the rich aroma of oil come one after another, infiltrating the cold winter.

After eating glutinous rice balls, Qin Muyan began to look forward to the temple fair at night. He wanted to ask Lu Yunjin to go with him, but Yunjin was very stubborn and insisted on staying at home. He said he wanted to chant scriptures with his grandma, but in fact he didn't Willing to disturb their rare time together as a young couple.

Finally, I hoped that the sky was getting late, and the street outside the door was heard to be lively.

"When you go out later, you must hold my hand and don't run around by yourself..." Lu Yunchen put the previous white jade hair crown on the little husband, and instructed 1 times tirelessly.

"Got it, got it..." Qin Muyan rubbed his ears, his husband was really rambling more and more, just this one thing, he talked about it all day, afraid how worried he was.He stroked his pregnant belly, and thought to himself, this temple fair must be full of people coming and going, very lively, even if he is allowed to run around, he still has to be scruples about this little guy.

Lu Yunchen was still a little worried, because this little bastard had too many precedents, he held Qin Muyan's hand tightly, tied up the big fur cape, and then went out, and the old lady gave a few more words of advice until the two of them Nodding again and again, he almost recited it before letting them go out.

Exit from Daojiekou, walk south along the bank of the moat, and turn a corner, which is the place where the temple fair is held.

They came at just the right time. Both sides of the street were already occupied by small vendors from all walks of life, selling candied haws, blowing sugar, and steaming sugar cakes. Qin Muyan couldn't take his eyes off these snacks, and Lu Yunchen picked them up. He bought a few things he could eat, and before he reached the magic trick, his hands were empty. Then he saw that the little husband was stuffed, like a little hamster. Seeing his husband's eyes looking over, he quickly Putting the last bite of sugar cake into his mouth, the palms covered with sugar particles were sticky, he suddenly remembered Lu Yunchen's request not to let go of his hand, and hurriedly put his hand over.

Lu Yunchen suppressed his distaste, and kept saying in his heart, "My husband, my husband...", took out a handkerchief from his cuff, and wiped the "dog's paws" over and over before giving up.

"Don't eat any more..."

Qin Muyan nodded perfunctorily, then turned his head and looked at the sesame seed cakes on the peddler's cart.

"Husband, look what it is, it smells so good."

Lu Yunchen took a look and saw that the freshly baked sesame seed cakes were still steaming white. When he passed by, the oily sesame seeds wrapped in crispy green onions made people unable to move away.

Qin Muyan swallowed at the right time, "Husband, don't worry, it's not that I want to eat, but Ping'an wants to eat, you told me before, no matter how wronged you are, we can't be wronged, let's be safe."

Lu Yunchen was so shocked by his little husband's remarks that he couldn't believe it. He still looked at his protruding belly. This "peace" is the baby name he gave his unborn child a few days ago, which means that the life of the baby will be smooth and everything will be smooth. Safety.Qin Muyan talked about it for a few days, and then the words became more and more fluent, and now he used "Ping An" as a shield for himself.

Helpless, Lu Yunchen had no choice but to resign himself to his fate and bought a sesame seed cake that was just hot out of the pan, and dragged the little greedy cat away from the "land of right and wrong".

Walking a few steps forward, there was a burst of gongs and drums, "Husband, look, look, it's a lion dance!" Qin Muyan still had sesame seed cakes stuffed in his mouth, which was bulging. Although he couldn't speak clearly, he still couldn't hide the excitement on his face Affection.

Lu Yunchen looked in the direction of his fingers, and saw a red golden lion shaking its head. Its front legs were on the wooden ladder, and its hind legs kicked vigorously. It opened wide and bit the hydrangea held high by the lion dancer, and there were enthusiastic applause from all around.

"It's really amazing..." Qin Muyan couldn't help admiring, "When I was young, the only time I saw a lion dance was when I was sick, my little dad took me to the town to see a doctor, and it happened to be a lion dance at a temple fair. I watched their steady steps and jumped up and down. I admired them very much, and told my little dad that when I grow up, I want to learn lion dance too. Unexpectedly, it has been so many years..."

Seeing that the little husband's mood was obviously depressed, Lu Yunchen cupped his cheeks and coaxed, "From now on, every year, how about I accompany you to watch the lion dance? Then bring peace, let's go together, No matter if it's a temple fair or a lantern festival, as long as you want, I will accompany you and let you see enough..."

A slight smile appeared in Qin Muyan's eyes unconsciously, and then he nodded heavily, "Okay!"

......

After watching the lion dance, go deeper. There is a small vendor on the bank of the river, who is yelling, "Guess the lantern riddles and give away lanterns. Pass by, don't miss it. If you guess the lantern riddles correctly, you will give away lanterns..."

"Husband, let's go over and try?" Qin Muyan became interested and insisted on dragging Lu Yunchen over to join in the fun.

Lu Yunchen was a little apprehensive, he could still bite the bullet and try it out if he wanted to make a sharp turn. This lantern riddle guessing was really a blind spot of his knowledge, but seeing his husband's twinkling star eyes watching I was embarrassed to raise his expectations, "Then...then go and try..."

"It's okay husband, you guessed wrong, at worst, let's just buy the lantern..." Qin Muyan patted his husband on the shoulder and said "understanding".

"Then I really thank you..."

The peddler saw a young couple walking towards the bank of the river, "Young master, I see that you are handsome and have the noble spirit of a scholar. Would you like to guess my lantern riddle? A flower lantern can be given to this handsome husband of yours..."

The lantern hanging on the wooden frame was a lifelike rabbit lantern. Qin Muyan was born in the year of rabbit, so he became even more energetic at this moment, showing off to the small vendor, "My husband decided to be smart, you must return this lantern today." me."

Thank you for the invitation, don't kill me, Lu Yunchen took the paper from the vendor with a wry smile, looked at it carefully, Qin Muyan also came up, and subconsciously read out the lantern riddle, "Now we are divided, don't be on the broken bridge... Husband , what does this mean, how does it sound, so unlucky, "

"Young master's words are wrong. This lantern riddle was created by Mr. Academy. I have been setting up a stall here for so long, but no one can guess it..." The small peddler stroked his beard and said triumphantly.

When Qin Muyan heard this, he was unhappy, because he felt that he was belittling his husband here.

"No one can guess, it's their stupidity, my husband, but it's different from them, this lantern riddle, for my husband, is simply something that comes at hand, don't believe it, just wait and see... right, Husband?" The little husband looked at Lu Yunchen confidently, and saw that he was frowning, staring at a row of small characters on the paper with his mouth pursed.

Qin Muyan was at a loss in his mind, and was about to ask a question, when Lu Yunchen frowned suddenly, found the writing brush on the side, and lightly wrote two words on the paper.

"Jiao... Xing?" Qin Muyan said silently, and the peddler's expression changed immediately.

"Shopkeeper, look, is my guess right?" Lu Yunchen handed over the paper.

"Yes, yes, yes, you guessed right..." The peddler was a little surprised. He didn't expect that after staying here all night, someone actually guessed the lantern riddle. He immediately took the rabbit lantern off the wooden stand. , and handed it to the little husband who was still in contemplation and hadn't recovered.

"Ayan, take your rabbit lamp..." After Lu Yunchen reminded, Qin Muyan took it over, still pondering in his mind, why did he guess these two words in this sentence.

"Husband, how did you guess it? What does this sentence have to do with these two characters?"

Lu Yunchen hooked the corners of his lips, "Look, this Ruzi can be disassembled into female characters and mouth characters, and placed on the disconnected bridge, that is, wooden characters and Qiao. When combined, isn't this Jiao Xing... .”

After this analysis, Qin Muyan suddenly realized, and became more and more admiring for his husband. The two carried the rabbit lantern and walked slowly towards the river bank, placed the rabbit lantern in the gurgling water, and watched it slowly go away until When they could no longer see it, the two went back.

At night, Qin Muyan got a little tired from walking around. At night, Qin Muyan's leg cramped, and the pain made his tears flow down. Lu Yunchen stretched and stroked. It was rare to lose sleepiness, sitting alone in front of the kang, looking at the little husband's cheeks still stained with tears, while thinking a lot in his heart.

In a few months, I will also be a father. Thinking back to the past half a year, I have lived a fulfilling life. Now it seems that everything is developing in the most beautiful direction. I only hope that in the next few years, It can also be as smooth as today.

......

The next day, Gu Ping came over with two strings of firecrackers, and insisted on listening to the sound at the door to get rid of the previous bad luck. Lu Yunchen also let him go, and the old lady brought out a brazier and asked them to walk back and forth. After many times, I almost found a willow branch to pat on my body.

Because the sign was put up before and the situation was informed in advance, there were quite a few guests who came to eat on the first day. Everyone thought it was the little boss Lu who made money, and they disliked the narrowness of the previous place, so they changed to this small restaurant on the third floor. When they came upstairs, they congratulated one after another, Lu Yunchen was in a good mood, and sent hot dishes to each table.

At night, after the shop door was closed, Lu Yunchen was about to go back to the bedroom to rest. For some reason, the old lady waited in the yard, saw him coming, and hurriedly called him into the room.

"Grandma, it's so late, what's wrong with you? But what's wrong with your body?" Lu Yunchen asked with concern.

"No problem, no problem, with the care of you and Dr. Zhou, old woman, I have been in better spirits these days, and my body has become much stronger..." The old lady knew that her grandson was always thinking about her body, Quickly explained, as if thinking of something, she deliberately lowered her voice, "Chen'er, tell grandma, is that Qingyang who often comes to our shop interested in our Yunjin?"

Lu Yunchen was slightly taken aback, "Did you see it?"

"On the Shangyuan Festival, just as you and Mu Yan left, Qingyang came over. At first, he said that he would take Yunjin to the temple fair, but Yunjin didn't want to. He just said that he would chant scriptures with me. Qingyang Seeing that he couldn't move, Yang walked away sullenly, but not long after, the kid came again with a load of snacks, without saying a word, stuffed it to Yunjin and ran away... No matter how stupid you are, it doesn't look right."

"This..." Lu Yunchen was at a loss for words. Although he had already seen Qingyang's intentions, he didn't know what Yunjin was thinking. How could he intervene in the matter of their love?

"Chen'er, grandma told you these things just to ask you about Qingyang's child. Our Yunjin's previous marriage was disturbed by his unscrupulous parents. Naturally, it is difficult to take this step again, but It's not a thing to procrastinate in marriage, it's still a long time, Yunjin can't be single all the time, if he can find someone who treats him sincerely, it's a good thing." Old lady Lu was full of worries between the lines, and even more so. It's because of thinking of Lu's second family, the roots of his teeth itch with hatred.

"Grandma, although Qingyang has a childish temper, he is still a good person. Our shop was led by him. To tell you the truth, it was Qingyang who helped Song Quan in the beginning. Although I don't know him How to treat Yunjin in the future, but right now, he is a suitable husband and son-in-law. However, I want him to make up his own mind about Yunjin's affairs. He has always been submissive and weak-tempered. If he doesn't talk about other things, at least it is about marriage. Come on, just do what he wants..." Lu Yunchen confided everything in his heart, he didn't know why Shen Changfu came to him that day and asked them to take Qingyang in for the New Year's Eve, but compared to their intervention, He hoped that Yunjin could take this step by himself, regardless of who this person is.

The old lady Lu pondered for a moment, and finally agreed with Lu Yunchen's idea. Put aside the Yunjin matter for now, Qin Muyan is the most important right now. Although she doesn't know about her brother's affairs, most people with bodies are the same , so I told Lu Yunchen several times, telling him to take good care of Qin Muyan, and in the last few months, nothing else would happen.
