Chapter 82 The Lantern Festival
"What?" Shangguan Wanyue asked.

Her cheeks were flushed from drinking, and her chapped skin and lips looked miserable.

Sometimes it is not time that defeats beauty, but life.

And this beauty in front of her is not at all like those delicate girls in Kyoto who worry about her beauty all day long, thinking about using the most expensive pearls to grind into powder for skin care, Shangguan Wanyue is just as rough as she is.

Shangguan Wenchao became angry just thinking about it, and her hands were also very rough, with layers of calluses: "Snake ointment."

After thinking about it, I added another sentence: "It treats frostbite. Your hands are like this, so I have to wipe it on for you."

It's cold and cold when you put it on, and it's quite comfortable, but the smell is a bit unpleasant.

Shangguan Wanyue smiled, and patted his shoulder with the other hand: "I'm not so delicate, but thank you anyway. Hey, it's nice to have a younger brother, and you know how to care about your sister."

If Shangguan Wenchao had a tail, he would be raised to the sky at this moment, with an unconcealable smile on his brow.

But Shangguan Wanyue added: "Remember to give it to the soldiers and use it. I remember that there seem to be a few severe frostbite."

Shangguan Wenchao's face suddenly collapsed: "Mind yourself!"

After painting, Shangguan Wenchao walked away with a sullen face, and went to paint other soldiers.

Why are you still angry?Looking at Shangguan Wenchao's angry back, Shangguan Wanyue was puzzled.

The soldiers were drinking vigorously around the fire, when they saw Shangguan Wenchao throw snake oil ointment over, they grinned: "What's the matter, General Shangguan, General Wanyue doesn't accept your favor?"

He suggested Shangguan Wenchao to get this snake ointment, saying it has miraculous effects on chilblains.

Not only for frostbite, some girls also like to use it when they have acne on their faces, and the effect is amazing.

It’s just that only a small number of girls like to use it. After all, when you hear the word “snake”, you will think of slippery and cold scales and a bloody mouth. When the sharp fangs light up, you will take a bite.

Shangguan Wenchao waved his hand, sat next to them, and glanced at Shangguan Wanyue, who was carefully listening to the movement outside.

Even though this place is relatively hidden and covered by wind and snow, it is still too close to the enemy army. If you don't observe carefully, the opponent may find out and be approaching.

These experiences were all gained through experience of failure, and Shangguan Wanyue couldn't avoid it, so she could only minimize the risk index, so that she wouldn't feel guilty.

"Don't mention it, I'll wipe it for her, she wants me to wipe it for you!" Shangguan Wenchao angrily took a stick and poked the fire, and sparks flew everywhere in an instant.

The soldier burst out laughing, attracting Shangguan Wanyue's puzzled gaze.

But she just glanced at it, and turned her head away without paying much attention, just thinking that these rough guys talked about something funny.

A soldier came over and put Shangguan Wenchao on the shoulder: "General, don't say that, women, your heart is like a needle in the sea, you have to take your time. What's more, General Shangguan Wanyue is not an ordinary woman."

"It's the same as not saying it." Shangguan Wenchao patted him away, "Come on, it's delicious and delicious, and I have to do a big ticket tonight!"

"to make!"

The soldiers raised their wine bowls and drank them all in one gulp.

The wind is rustling, the water is cold, and the strong man will return once he is gone!
The fifteenth day of the first lunar month, Lantern Festival.

The Lantern Festival in Kyoto has lanterns.

Threads will be hung in the air, and small lotus lanterns will be hung on it.

There are many couples on the street. Compared with the Shangsi Festival on the third day of March, the Lantern Festival seems to be an equally important "Qixi Festival".

All in all, joy.

During the Lantern Festival, Mammy Liao made Yuanxiao, and Xue Mi asked from the side: "Mother Liao, is there any difference between Yuanxiao and glutinous rice balls?"

Aren't they all round, with glutinous rice flour on the outside and black sesame seeds on the inside?The taste is not too bad.

"Who told you that there are only black sesame seeds in the glutinous rice balls?" Nanny Liao smiled, "The Lantern Festival is made by 'rolling', the fillings are sweeter and harder, and the glutinous rice balls are rolled into rounds, and there are whole grains in addition to sesame seeds , fruit minced meat."

Xue Mi couldn't bear the thought of putting meat in something as sweet as glutinous rice balls: "Then I will only eat Yuanxiao."

She has a sweet tooth.

Nanny Liao smiled until the wrinkles at the corners of her eyes were exposed, she nodded and said yes, and saw the stuff around Xue Mi's waist again. She was wearing a jacket skirt with apricot-colored body underneath, embroidered with small red flowers, and her waist The two ends of the red thread in the middle are small acacia knots, which are tied and hang down. The jacket is bright red, which is just right for a girl of her age, very delicate.

It's just that Nanny Liao saw a dagger pinned to her waist. It looked very simple, but it had a different sense of refinement, and there were no fancy gem inlays.

"Why are you carrying this thing?" Nanny Liao asked casually.

In fact, she also knew that Zheng Zhuoyun was assassinated last time, and Xue Mi, as a member of the Zheng family, might be her next target, so it is normal to carry a dagger for self-defense.

Xue Mi showed it to Nanny Liao generously: "Bring yourself self-defense, it's a gift from my friend."

"Then your friend is really interesting."

The daughter's family would not give these, and Xue Mi didn't get in touch with the ladies around her in the capital. The main reason was that those people looked down on Xue Mi, thinking that she came from a humble background, behaved vulgarly, and was not worthy of hanging out with them.

Xue Mi didn't think about it, and Nanny Liao didn't ask too much, she just thought it was given to her by a friend in the Imperial College.

Zheng Zhuoyun also asked. Thinking of Yan Ce's coming to the capital, he couldn't help being suspicious. This is too much like his style. It's just that Xue Mi said it was sent by He Dongyang, with a calm expression on her face, and Zheng Zhuoyun believed it. up.

The most important thing between lovers is trust, Zheng Zhuoyun doesn't want to doubt anything.

"I don't care! You've been busy for so many days! There are so many lanterns outside during the Lantern Festival today! You must go with me!" Xue Mi pouted, pulling his sleeves and acting like a spoiled child.

Zheng Zhuoyun's research experiment has come to an end, and indeed he ignored Xue Mi for a long time, so he agreed to go out with her.

It was just when the lanterns came on outside, and the snow was dyed brilliant colors.

The two walked hand in hand on the crowded street, and various lanterns were placed in front of the stalls.

If you want to put lanterns, you have to cross the bridge. A river divides Kyoto into two parts. Because couples often meet on the bridge, it looks like the Milky Way divides the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl, so it is named Magpie Bridge.

Most of the people on the street are men and women in pairs.

Chen Chen asked Chen Hengshan to observe Yan Ce's reaction in the past few days.

Chen Hengshan was observing, but unexpectedly, Yan Ce was fine.

Very good, time to eat, time to drink, time to play, time to sleep, time to have fun.

Although, he never smiled.

He doesn't go out during the day, and only practices martial arts in the courtyard. It's a habit he has developed for more than ten years. It's not suitable for a killer to be exposed to the blue sky and bright sun.
