Travel to ancient times and make a fortune

Chapter 178 The Lantern Festival

During the Lantern Festival, there are so many people on the streets.

The sellers are waiting to open a stall to do business.Tourists were in groups, jumping from one stall to another.

Every shop facing the street is hung with lanterns, making even ordinary-looking storefronts extraordinarily beautiful.

In the small square in the center of Fang City, it is said that there will be a lantern exhibition, and the people who come to admire the lanterns will vote for the lantern king.This is a grand competition for lantern craftsmen in and around the capital.

Of course, the Lantern Festival and the lanterns come with the lantern tiger, which means guessing lantern riddles.This is a word game that is very popular among people.

Hu Die and Min Shulan told Li Xiao that in the capital, fireworks will be set off in the Imperial City during the Lantern Festival. This is the last time fireworks are set off in the Imperial City during the first month of the year, marking the end of the New Year.

In addition, there will be a lot of fun and beautiful things on the streets, such as dragon and lion dances, stilt walking and yangko dancing.

Li Xiao had never seen stilt walking or Yangko dancing live in her previous life. Unexpectedly, in this ancient time, she would have the opportunity to see this folk art with her own eyes.

It was still early when the six people went out. Although there were many people on the street, it was not crowded. Li Xiao was very happy.

But in just half an hour, the number of people seemed to have doubled. Even if there were government guards around to maintain order, it was still difficult to move forward.

Thinking of something, Li Xiao grabbed Li Qingsong's clothes and said with a smile: "Brother, there are too many people, you have to protect me!"

After saying that, he pushed Min Shulan to Li Qingzhu and said: "Third brother, you must protect Sister Min. There are too many people here, so we can't let Sister Min be squeezed!"

Min Shulan was pushed into Li Qingzhu's arms and was supported by him.When the two of them heard this, their faces turned red.

Although he was a little shy, Li Qingzhu took Min Shulan's hand instead. His firm look made Li Xiao think to himself.

The marriage between the two has basically been decided. After the wedding ceremony and the wedding date have been set, all they have to do is wait for the wedding!
After dealing with the unmarried couple, Li Xiao narrowed his eyes and looked at Hu Die beside him, and said hey: "Sister Hu Die, do you go to the second brother's place yourself, or should I send you off?"

When Hu Die heard this, she became excited and jumped up to Li Qingbai: "I'll do it myself, don't do anything."

Then, seeing Li Xiao staring at his hand, he hurriedly took the initiative to pull on Li Qingbai's sleeve.

When Li Xiaoli saw this, he was finally satisfied. He raised his eyebrows at his second brother without leaving any trace, and his eyes said: You have to take control!
Li Qingbai raised his eyebrows: Thanks, little sister!
Li Qingsong saw everything in his eyes: Is my little sister starting to be a matchmaker?Why do you suddenly feel something bad?

After assigning people, Li Xiao invited everyone to guess the lantern riddles first, but during the process of guessing the lantern riddles, the six people were squeezed away by twos.

It was discovered that the other four people were missing.Li Xiao didn't look for it in a hurry, but pulled Li Qingsong to continue guessing.

"Brother, I want to count from the top, the tiger headlights in the third row!" The tiger headlights were made to be cute and naive, and the image was just like the cartoon image in the previous life. Li Xiao liked it very much.

Li Qingsong followed Li Xiao's words and looked at the tiger head lantern, and then at the note on the side: Solved thirty lantern riddles.

Fortunately, there should be no problem.

While Li Qingsong was fighting the lantern riddles, the other two groups had been sent outside the lantern riddle area.

"Brother Li, let's go buy masks. I just saw a lot of people holding masks!" Hu Die looked at Li Qingbai and said.

Hearing this, Li Qingbai looked at Li Qingzhu, who were also squeezed out, and asked: "Hu Die wants to buy masks, what about you, the third child? Do you want to watch the lanterns, or continue to guess lantern riddles?"

Li Qingzhu: ...Are you afraid that I will make the wrong choice?Did you go out of your way to help provide options?Rolling his eyes speechlessly, Li Qingzhu looked at Min Shulan and asked, "Should we go over there to watch the lanterns first?"

Min Shulan looked at Li Qingbai and Hu Die on the side, she was smart enough not to raise any objection, and said with a smile: "Okay!"

In this way, the four squeezed out people also divided into two groups and left separately.

Li Qingzhu and Min Shulan have reconciled, and their wedding invitations have been changed, and they are now preparing for a grand ceremony.

The elders of the two families did not restrain them, and occasionally went out to play together, but they always turned a blind eye. They only hoped that the relationship between the two children would become closer, and that they would only get better and better when they got married in the future.

After the two of them were alone, they were no longer shy and shy as before. Instead, they seemed to have a clear understanding of each other. At the same time, they reached out and took each other's hands.

Feeling the warmth of another person in their hands, the two of them looked at each other and smiled, then held hands and walked towards the lantern show in the square not far away.

Compared with the huge crowds at the lantern show, the flow of people at Li Qingbai's side was relatively less. However, even if there were fewer people, Li Qingbai still protected Hu Die at all times.

"Hey, why haven't you seen the mask stall yet?" Hu Die started to look around because someone was protecting him.

"Be careful!" Suddenly, Li Qingbai pulled Hu Die, "Don't hit him."

"Thank you, Brother Li!" Hu Die chuckled, then quickly followed a woman holding a mask in her hand, and then asked about the approximate location of the mask stall.

Before Li Qingbai and Li Qingbai found the mask stall, Li Qingsong had already solved thirty lantern riddles.

"Young master is so talented! I wonder if you are interested in continuing to solve the puzzle?" The boss held the tiger head lantern in his hand, but did not hand it to Li Qingsong immediately, but invited him to continue solving the puzzle.

The boss has been paying attention to Li Qingsong for a while, and he found that although this young man did not look like an ordinary young man, he had an outstanding temperament.

In just a short time, it has already attracted many ladies to stop and watch.

What's the boss's idea?Naturally, he hopes that Li Qingsong can "lead traffic" to his store.

This boss's store is actually a teahouse, but he took advantage of the Lantern Festival to set up a lantern riddle rack outside the store to attract customers.

Originally, there were a lot of people passing by, but not many stopped. But since Li Qingsong started solving the puzzle, the flow of people gradually increased, and most of them were girls' families.

Li Qingsong didn't know that the boss had this idea in mind. After hearing this, he just looked at Li Xiao and asked, "Xiao Xiaoke, do you still want to continue?"

"No," Li Xiao did not ignore the "wolf-like" gazes from the surrounding people, "Xiao Xiao only likes this tiger head lamp, it would be great to have one!"

After saying that, he took the initiative to step forward, took the tiger head lamp from the boss's hand, and then used his free hand to hold Li Qingsong's arm, smiling brightly: "Let's go!"

Both of them left happily, but the boss felt really sorry.

When some of the girls who were watching saw Li Xiao holding Li Qingsong's hand, they couldn't help but cursed "shameless" in their hearts.

Li Xiaohe held his eldest brother's arm and let go after being no more than a hundred meters away from the people.

　One more today.
