Ginger's grocery store

This year's Spring Festival was at the end of January, half a month before the Spring Festival, Jiang Yuan received an invitation, a wedding invitation from a couple of zombies and vampires who came to Kunwuju to buy wood and order coffins.Not long ago, the coffin carefully built by the old ghost uncle for several months was finally completed. The whole piece of golden nanmu was used without any waste, and some gold, silver and jade were added to make a coffin with one inside and one outside.

The leftovers left over from the production process are turned into beads or small sculptures, in the shapes of various animals, tigers look mighty, cats look naive, and a group of small fishes are even more agile.

Beads were made into bracelets, and carvings were made into pendants, which were distributed to guests attending the wedding banquet.

Jiang Yuan took Da Jin to the wedding of their husband and wife.

I thought it would be in the depths of Daqingshan, or some wilderness, but when I opened the invitation, I found that the address written on it was in the Century Building next to the TV tower. The high-end banquet hall with 36 tables was very romantically arranged, and it was airlifted from abroad. The coming white roses can be seen everywhere, and the crystals of well-known brands are just the embellishment of flowers.

The light is refracted by the crystal, adding star-like light spots in the hall, like a dream.

If he hadn't known that the protagonists of the wedding banquet were zombies and vampires, and if he hadn't known that most of the guests present were not human beings, Jiang Yuan once thought that what he attended was just a luxurious wedding.

Many guests with high noses, deep eyes, and well-defined features came to the wedding, with slender figures, glazed eyes, and fair skin. Those are all blood, a drink bought from a blood bank to entertain vampires.

A group of foreigners pretending to be elegant huddled in their positions and did not dare to move around. Random zombies or monsters would make them tremble, and their level was not enough to make them feel sad.

The active singing band on the stage withdrew, the headlights were turned off, and the closed door of the banquet hall was slowly opened.

Jiang Yuan, who was eating a chocolate cream cupcake and waiting for the banquet, looked towards the gate like other guests, and a pair of Bi people walked in through the opened gate. The bride in white gauze and the groom in black suit complemented each other , The height distance makes them stand together with the feeling of the best height and cuteness.The bride leads the groom to the stage. They have no elders alive, and each other is the only relative.

Amidst the sound of romantic music, Jiang Yuan was not as quiet in the food as in the past, eating the steamed deep-sea bass thoughtfully.

Daikin: "What's wrong?"

Jiang Yuan shook his head.

Daikin: "Envy?"

Jiang Yuan still shook his head.

Da Jin scratched his head, "What is it swollen?" He was happy when he went out, but his face was sombre when he came home, and he didn't take Jiang Yuan back whole, the Lord of the Underworld would show his face.Da Jin's little heart is frightened.

Instead of answering Dajin, he picked up the Feizhai Happy Water that he bought when he came. Jiang Yuan stared at it for a moment and thought for a while, then put the empty can on the ground and squashed it.

Under Da Jin's wide-eyed amber eyes, Jiang Yuan calmly stuffed the crushed soda can into the pocket of his jacket, and Jiang Yuan said calmly, "Romance requires money."

Da Jin stepped on his fluffy feet and walked to Jiang Yuan's side and beeped softly, "This is not the reason for you to stuff the can in your pocket." Amber eyes looked around furtively, a kind of concern that only belongs to adults who care about others. The embarrassment in his eyes lingered in Da Jin's heart, how embarrassing he was to see Jiang Yuan's behavior.

Jiang Yuan nodded Da Jin's head, and smiled without speaking, Da Jin twisted his head so angry that he refused to touch it.

Another new dish, stir-fried scallops, whole scallop meat the size of a child's palm is fried with squid slices. The taste is not very unusual, mainly because it is fresh and expensive.Jiang Yuan curled his lips while eating the scallops. The dishes in Century Building are really not that good. The dishes for a table of 1 yuan are nothing more than that. Instead of paying attention to the taste, he pays attention to the expensive ingredients. By the way, there are supporting services.

Attentive service delivered a bowl of delicious matsutake chicken soup to Jiang Yuan, which contained wings and a few pieces of matsutake, which were removed from the whole chicken by the waiter. Is it because he is more beautiful to give him the tenderest wings? ?It's not Jiang Yuan's blind self-confidence and narcissism. After he cultivated, he has sharp ears and eyes, and the whispers of the mortal world can't escape his ears. He has heard the waiters and sisters discuss how handsome he is several times.

Seeing that Jiang Yuan still didn't answer, Da Jin, who was eagerly waiting for an explanation, turned his head angrily and smashed the jar. Anyway, he was seen by the waiter who was always paying attention to Jiang Yuan...

"Haha, don't be angry. I just had a sudden feeling that there are many ways to be happy in this world, some are expensive, and some are simple and unpretentious." Jiang Yuan smiled and stroked the cat's head, he wanted to step on a soda can on a whim To relieve the boredom in my heart, I felt more comfortable after stepping on it. I stuffed the soda can in my pocket by accident, and everything was purely a misunderstanding. "Look, I didn't take it out." The crushed soda can was thrown on the table without attracting the attention of others.

Da Jin gritted his teeth fiercely, "Hmph, whatever you want, anyway, it's not me who is ashamed."

Jiang Yuan: "Master Shenjun, why are you still afraid of being ashamed?"

Daikin: "Face is very important."

"No, no, no." Jiang Yuan didn't quite agree, "Proves that you didn't see through."

Da Jin: "...Being in the five elements, contaminated with fireworks, you can't see through it. It's boring to see through it, and you will lose the joy of life with a pure heart and few desires."

Jiang Yuan froze, his slender eyebrows gathered together.

···

Whether it is a wedding banquet with a table of several hundred or a table of tens of thousands, the process is similar. For the guests, it is enough to eat and drink, and the close relatives and friends who are not couples do not need to go to the bridal chamber.Jiang Yuan led the big fat cat away as he did when he came, and smiled friendlyly when passing by the waiters and sisters, thanking them for their meticulous service all night, and the steaks were cut into pieces of the same size and sent to him.

It made Jiang Yuan a little embarrassed, after all, he was the only one who received such treatment.

After Jiang Yuan, who was wearing a black casual suit, walked by, the waiters standing at the vegetable preparation table against the wall looked at Jiang Yuan's back excitedly.

"Little brother is so handsome, and my heart is trembling when I'm with Mao Mao."

"Suffocated and fainted, I need my little brother's kiss to recover."

"If I had known earlier, I would have rested today."

"why?"

"Seeing such a good-looking little brother, how can I find a boyfriend!"

"That's a problem, blah blah."

"Huh."

"Huh."

Da Jin flicked his tail, leaving a group of monsters behind, the girl really didn't understand.

The Century Building is 59 floors high, and there is an open-air bar on the top floor where you can spend the whole night. After nine o'clock, the bar's lively day begins. The [-]th floor is a cafe with an excellent viewing angle. Outside the large floor-to-ceiling windows is the best night view in Nanzhou City. Looking down, you can have a panoramic view of the romance and splendor created by human beings using technology.

After Jiang Yuan ordered a cup of coffee here, he took the elevator upstairs to the bar.

"Sir, pets are not allowed up there." The elevator upstairs is retro, full of metal punk flavors, and is equipped with a dedicated person to operate the elevator.

Jiang Yuan said: "The pet ticket is ready." There is a metal round buckle on the slender finger holding the coffee.

The waiter bowed, "I'm sorry, I didn't see it. Sir, you should put the tag on the pet's collar, so that it won't cause unnecessary misunderstandings." The waiter just wanted to say that he came to hang the metal buckle, but found that he was too fat. The cat with the neck doesn't have a collar at all, which is embarrassing.

Jiang Yuan: "Thank you for the reminder, but my family doesn't like the restraint of the collar, and I can't wear the tag, so I just take it."

In just two or three sentences, the elevator went up to the open-air bar on the [-]th floor.In fact, it is not really open-air, but a semi-open-air structure. Now that the weather is cold, people prefer to stay indoors. The outdoors are cool and cold. Occasionally, young men and women can be seen leaning on the railings. What they snuggle together to see is not the scenery. It's the people around you.

Jiang Yuan stepped up to the railing, one or two meters away from the real edge, unable to look vertically at the ground, but enough to overlook the entire night scene.As the Spring Festival approaches, the festive atmosphere is getting stronger and stronger. The light show has been put on Huaxia Red in advance, and the patterns that appear are all related to festivals and celebrations.

A group of seventeen or eighteen-year-old boys and girls suddenly rushed out of the room holding fireworks sticks, and the sparkling cold fireworks left winding afterimages in the air.They rushed to the little couple snuggling together and sang a birthday song, "Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you...", the big boy hugging the girl was already prepared and took out a gift from his arms.

Judging from Jiang Yuan's experience, he must have skipped classes from school.

Seeing the videos around him, Jiang Yuan dared to bet with his toes that it must have been posted on the small video software, and the more likes he got, the more tsk tsk, being seen by parents and teachers, tsk tsk.

bang bang-

Just at this time, the fireworks by the Baihe River were set off, jumping up to the sky, and the dazzling colors bloomed were completely incomparable to the fireworks sticks.

Next year, Nanzhou City will ban all fireworks and firecrackers. As the last carnival, this year it will be set off vigorously. The first fireworks show by the Baihe River will start today, and the next one will be five days later.Jiang Yuan went up to the rooftop just to see it, and it would be great if Fang Chengyan was by his side.

Fang Chengyan always has a kind of magical power to make Jiang Yuan's wishes come true, and the next moment he quietly appeared behind Jiang Yuan, hugged Jiang Yuan into his arms, and the two were as quiet as if they had never been apart watching the fireworks show.

As the bell struck 10:30, the biggest firework bloomed in the sky, and countless bright light spots fell down.

"Ah~"

"so amazing."

"Is it some special material?"

"Don't worry about it, come on, it won't hurt if it falls on someone."

Spots of light fell down like rain, falling on people's bodies, falling on the ground, everywhere, causing countless exclamations.

Fang Chengyan leaned into Jiang Yuan's ear affectionately, "My sweetheart, happy every day, happy birthday!" During the time when the two of them were not together, Fang Chengyan prepared for the present light rain.

Tomorrow is Jiang Yuan's birthday, but it's a small birthday. The Jiang family has no tradition. It's just eating a bowl of noodles at noon, and they don't do anything special to celebrate. After eating the noodles made by grandma at noon, Jiang Yuan almost celebrates his birthday Forget things.Even he himself forgot that tomorrow would be his birthday.

It's nice to be remembered.

In the light rain, Jiang Yuan turned his head to look for Fang Chengyan's lips, and his delicate peck made his heart burn.

The surrounding crowd gasped, seeing two handsome men kissing each other, some girls were even more excited than being kissed by a handsome man.

Feeling moved, Jiang Yuan said as a master of evil, "Everybody celebrates their birthdays after the clock strikes twelve. It's only past ten o'clock, and it's still far away from my birthday."

Fang Chengyan chuckled, "Okay then, I'll take back the blessing just now. I'll let you know the time and tell you on time."

Jiang Yuan grabbed Fang Chengyan's sleeve, and said bluntly, "No, I've already received it. I'll be generous and give you a chance to reform. Next year's birthday will be as perfect as possible." Qingrun's eyes were soft smile.

Fang Cheng said, "Okay."

The light rain was coming to an end, Jiang Yuan saw a lot of people looking at them, so he simply pulled Fang Chengyan to change positions and blend in with the crowd, taking part in the excitement and looking up at the sky.The older children celebrating the birthday just happened to pass by, waving the balloons they were holding. It was unknown who was holding the stick-shaped balloon and hit Jiang Yuan. Fang Chengyan blocked it with his arm but did not expect that there would be another One, Jiang Yuan was hit on the forehead by a candy cane-like balloon from another direction.

As if being hit by a heavy object, Jiang Yuan felt dizzy for a while.The time was so short that neither Jiang Yuan himself nor Fang Chengyan noticed the coming of dizziness.

The big boy holding the candy cane balloon hurriedly said sorry, but Jiang Yuan didn't care, he waved his hand and said it's okay.After the group of children left, Jiang Yuan felt that the surroundings became deserted. It was getting late, "Let's go home." After he finished speaking, he was in a trance and sour for a moment, always feeling that he had been looking forward to these words for a long time.
