Pastoral Valley Fragrance

Chapter 207 The Lantern Festival
Dongfeng night flowers and thousands of trees.

It's finally the Lantern Festival, and the adults and children in the family are eager to try it. It's just this once a year, who doesn't want to think about Lele, let alone there are several people in this room who don't even know what the Lantern Festival is. A little more novelty and anticipation.

After this day, the restaurant will start to do business as usual, An Jinxuan and Jing Zhe will also go out to the town, and the people in the village are also waiting for the spring to be full and the fields to be plowed.After Chen Jiangsheng got engaged to Xiaohe, he was also very polite, but his straightforward nature could not be changed, and it was not a good thing. The two of them talked a lot less than before. This day is not more restrained, you can Have fun together.

After discussing for a while, the final decision is to take a wooden boat. The cold moonlight reflected on the water is a sight to behold. Besides, if you go here in a bullock cart, you may not even be able to squeeze in the crowd. It's not easy to park a car, but it's not as light as this wooden boat.Besides, the lantern festival will be set up along the river, and they will tie some lanterns and put them on the bow of the boat. If they like it, they can go ashore for a stroll.

Now that the decision has been made, Mrs. Wang and Mrs. Xu are busy arranging for everything they need, leaving Mrs. Jiang free to talk endlessly with Xiao He. Turn around to wipe away tears.

Xu Qinshi also followed Xiaoman to make a bunch of snacks.When she stopped, she looked at the cold courtyard with her eyes, feeling a little sad, and said to the two sisters, "Your grandma is too tough, and she refuses to turn a blind eye to everything." Just looking at it, it's just a loss of blessings. It's really pitiful. After worrying about it all my life, I don't know what I did in the end. Gu Yu, send this basket of things over, and ask if you are willing to follow me. Let's go out for a stroll, maybe it's good to be scattered."

Gu Yu didn't really want to go there, she was in a bad mood when she thought of going there, even though it was pitiful, it was also hateful.Xia Zhi took the job happily, "I'll go, I'll go, I'll ask grandma to go out with us anyway! She listens to me the most."

Xiaoman didn't say anything on the side, turned her head to the side and pretended she didn't see it. Anyway, she didn't deal with that side very well, especially the matter of Li He's meddling in her marriage, she couldn't let go of it.On the contrary, Gu Yu felt a little emotional, this villain also has a small heart, even if Li He's 1 is not good, he always hurts Xia Zhi, no wonder Xia Zhi is willing to kiss her.

Soon, Xia Zhi came back empty-handed, "Grandma said I can't go, the crowd is too crowded. But I asked her to come over later and help us look after the house. The second sister said that if people have something to do, it will be fine, and everything else will be used." Don't worry about it. Grandma and Grandpa promised to come when we go out."

Xu Qinshi patted Xia Zhi's head, turned around and asked, "What else did Second Sister say?"

"Well... the second sister also said that you don't have to be too greedy when you do business. This restaurant is like this. We just stand on a high place and snatch everything under the pretext of needless. We have to leave some room for people. Anyway, money It’s all unprofitable.”

This is what Gu Yu didn't expect, at Xia Zhi's age, she actually remembered what she said, remembering what she told him back then not to follow others randomly, so she misunderstood and hid in the straw pile. "Then what else do I say?"

"You said this peach sauce can't last for so long, you have to think about renovating it, otherwise if someone learns it, we won't have any business."

Seeing Xia Zhi's dexterity, Xiao Man couldn't stop teasing him, "Is there any more?"

Xia Zhi scratched his head, lowered his eyes and thought for a while, before saying, "Second Sister also said that this is for business..."

Gu Yu was almost swallowed by the snacks in his mouth. This kid, every word he dares to say is about business. I didn't teach him that way. Could it be that he just kept asking him to do business? "Silly boy! I also said don't admit death. It's not good to buy and sell business at such a small age. Don't become a miser in the future!"

Xia Zhi didn't quite understand, she stared at Gu Yu with her eyes, then suddenly touched her head and laughed, "Yes, the second sister also said about the miser, she refused to let the family members light two lamp grasses even when she was about to die, I It won't be like this, from now on, the second sister will order one hundred and one thousand lamp grasses, and I will have the money to buy them all!"

Xu Qinshi and Xiao Man laughed, but Gu Yu didn't know whether it was sadness or joy.

Things were put on the boat one by one, but An Jinxuan was nowhere to be seen. Gu Yu heard him say early in the morning that he was going to pull a wooden boat in the yard over there, and since he hadn't seen anyone for so long, he went to look for him.

There was no one in the courtyard, the sky was getting dark, and the moonlight was not very bright. There was a warm light flickering in the main room. As soon as Gu Yu entered, he saw his own shadow shaking on the dark wall.Without thinking too much, she took the oil lamp in her hand and entered the backyard.

As expected, An Jinxuan was sitting on the jar with his arms folded in a daze.

"Brother Jinxuan, didn't you come to drag the wooden boat, why did you just froze."

An Jinxuan sat in the dark for a long time and thought for a long time. The halo cast by Gu Yu's oil lamp gave him a moment of relief, and then he sighed again.

Gu Yu pouted, "Didn't you say everything, it's so scary."

An Jinxuan said leisurely: "I came here just now, and saw that there was no one in the dark room, just thinking that when I first came to the village, there was nothing like this, and it's been so many years It's..."

Gu Yu was stunned, and the thought of asking further arose again, the words rolled in her throat again, still reluctant to say it, An Jinxuan at this time seemed to be different from the one she knew in normal times Yes, at the beginning it was cold and cold, then it was a hippie smile and didn't take anything seriously, and later it became warm with everyone.It wasn't the clever and clever look when it came to buying and selling, nor the stubborn and determined look in Hulugou. At that time, no matter what he did, he seemed to be determined, and he didn't have to think about anything.Now, this kind of lonely appearance in the dark actually makes Gu Yu feel a little... distressed.

She didn't know what to say, touched the stone hanging on her chest, and sat on the altar beside her, neither of them spoke.Let the oil lamp in his hand shake up and down.

If Xu Shi and the others hadn't waited a long time to find them, they might have to sit down like this.

When I got on the boat, it seemed that I had returned to the time when I visited the lotus pond at night, but there were more people talking and laughing, but it was not the days when I lived tight.

An Jinxuan still didn't know what he was thinking, he was muttering about cuckoo or something, when Gu Yu saw him like this, he untied the stone from his neck and handed it over, "Brother Jinxuan, don't worry, this stone is for you to touch. Get aura!"

An Jinxuan took it with a smile.Chen Jiangsheng excitedly rowed the boat and spoke loudly, at this time he moved over to the side to amused, "A broken stone is still hanging around his neck, Gu Yu is getting more and more strange, why do you wear these things around your neck, Xia Zhi is here, don't you say Give your sister a hundred bulbs of light grass, first buy a piece of emerald, right?"

Xia Zhi was on another boat, but her ears were sharp, and she promised something from a distance.Gu Yu looked at Xiao He who was embarrassed, and knew in her heart that it was her who said it. On this rare day, there was no need to hold on to too many reasons. The adults also felt relieved to let them stay together on the boat, and they also engaged in marriage. But let's talk.

Gu Yu laughed and cursed, "Xiao He! You should take care of your family!"

Chen Jiangsheng rubbed his hands, with a look of embarrassment on his face, "Where did Gu Yu go, I'll help row the boat!" After speaking, he withdrew and left, but he was too tired of Xiao He's side and refused to move.

Seeing that An Jinxuan was standing there blankly, Gu Yu nudged him, "Brother Jinxuan, this stone...do you still remember Hulugou?"

An Jinxuan's eyes lit up, he held the stone in his hand, and the smile on his face gradually bloomed, "Yes, Hulugou, Rhododendron, Rhododendron, Hulugou..." After finishing speaking, he held the stone in his hand. Pass it to Gu Yu.He asked in a low voice, "Did you pick up a stone from there?"

Gu Yu felt a little embarrassed.How could she forget, how could she have the heart to forget, the horrifying scene in Hulugou, she never wanted to go to that place again in her life, but after she came out with her legs on An Jinxuan's back, she turned her head and saw a bunch of ghosts on the ground. When there were bloody footprints, she grabbed the blood-stained pebble closest to her, thinking that she would never get out again.I wanted to say something, but it was not the same thing when I said it, "I almost died in that place, so I picked up a stone as a souvenir."

Soon we arrived at the place where the Lantern Festival was held, and the crowd became lively.The people on this boat couldn't sit still, they went down together for a stroll, and soon separated.Jing Zhe followed An Jinxuan and Gu Yu, and the two of them walked slowly behind. Gu Yu saw everything as a novelty. She really didn't expect that this town was still so lively and crowded. , she also enthusiastically encouraged the two of them to guess the lantern riddles and win the lottery.Before she could finish her guess, she saw the man who was selling snacks again, and ran to buy some fried doughnuts.I took a bite of the fried donuts, and saw that they were so delicately made.Relying on her nimble body, Gu Yu was like a monkey returning to the woods, shuttled up and down non-stop.

She was finally lost among the colorful lights, and she was not afraid.It's just that she was running around happily, but unexpectedly, she was stared at by the same people who came out to watch the lanterns.

It is inevitable to say that dragons and snakes are mixed in this lively place. A few young masters with fans were strolling around and saw a well-behaved girl strolling here alone, and followed after looking at each other.

Gu Yu finally reached the end of his stroll, exhaled towards the river in the darkness, squatted on the ground and looked back at the light reflected on the river, a piece of brilliance.She still couldn't forget a jack-o-lantern in her heart, thinking it was exquisite, she turned around and wanted to go back to look for it.But was blocked by a few rascals.

"Little girl, why are you walking around alone on such a beautiful night? Come, brother will accompany you to watch the lanterns."

The three of them seemed to be well dressed, and they probably weren't the usual thugs in the market, but most of them were sons of rich families who came out to have fun.Gu Yu was thinking hard in his heart and didn't answer.

"Don't be afraid, I will buy you whatever you want!"

Gu Yu rolled his eyes, bit his lip thinking about how to solve it, and squeezed into the crowd calmly.Suddenly seeing a slightly fat figure, he had an idea, and shouted with relief, "Qin'er!"

Taking advantage of the distraction of several people, she walked around them and ran a few steps on the bluestone road, and plunged into the crowd.

Just as he was about to run away, he saw a person squeezed out from the crowd, walking towards the place where Gu Yu was standing just now, "Gu Yu, did you call me?" Seeing Qin'er yelling there alone, Gu Yu secretly groaned in her heart.

It's just a call, I don't know if it's good luck or bad luck!

Double update starts tomorrow~
