He Yan walked to Xiao Jue, Xiao Jue glanced at her, and then frowned slightly, "How do you wear it so thin?"
"It's too hot." He Yan knocked down her teeth and swallowed blood, and scolded Chiwu with a head in her heart. She had to pretend that nothing had happened, and she fanned: "I don't know why, I always feel a little hot."
Xiao Jue was about to take off his cloak and was stopped by He Yan's eyes. "I really don't need it. If I feel cold, just go back and get a dress. The reason for wearing it like this is because it's too hot. You haven't heard of Lin Shuanghe. Speaking of it? Sometimes people feel hot. At this time, they are too heavy to wear, but they can't dispel the stuffiness in the body, and they are easy to get sick."
Xiao Jue stared at her suspiciously.
He Yan grabbed his arm, "Okay, don't worry about what I wear anymore, go to Dongshi first. I'm afraid I might miss a wonderful place late."
In Shuojing City, Fang City is prosperous in business and divided into East City, West City, South City and North City according to its orientation. The most prosperous among them is Dongshi, which is close to the city temple.
East City is divided into December City, January Moon Light City, February Flower Market, March Silkworm City, April Jin City, May Fan City, June Xiang City, July Bao City, August Gui City, September Pharmaceutical City , October wine market, November plum city, December Taofu city.
At this time, at the end of November and early December, Mei City had closed, and only three or two stalls were still selling piles of red plums. Taofu City had already begun, and the Spring Festival couplets were everywhere. Everywhere, we saw the crowd watching, or cheering, applauding, or awe-inspiring, and it was very lively.
As the year is approaching the end of the year, the lamp market also began to put lights. The streets are full of lights, endless changes, and crowded, very happy.
He Yan followed Xiao Jue to the entrance of Dongshi, already feeling the crowd prosperity.
"It's too hilarious." She looked up at the colorful lights hanging on her head and couldn't help but exclaim, "I'm still visiting the night market for the first time."
"For the first time?" Xiao Jue looked at her sideways.
He Yan nodded, "Yes, I can’t come to such a crowded place before, so as not to show flaws. I was particularly envious when the younger generations of the He family visited the night market together. When I was in Jiyang City, I think the night market in Jiyang City is fun and tight. I didn’t expect the Shuojing City to be good. It’s so beautiful!"
She was full of excitement and joy, and lived two lifetimes, but at the moment she was as happy as a child. The night market is not a place where high-profile people can come. Ordinary people can come here for fun, but this person is the first time.
Many things that ordinary people are accustomed to are prohibited from her.
The young man looked at the girl next to him, his eyes light and pitying, and at the next moment, He Yan had pulled his sleeve and squeezed it in front of a sugar man.
"Sugarman!" He Yan said happily. "I still remember that I couldn't come to the night market when I was a kid. I couldn't do it. Finally, when I asked the aunt to go to the night market, I asked someone to buy one for me. I couldn't bear to eat it. Inserted in the pen holder, the finalized are everywhere." She looked back at Xiao Jue, "Xiao Jue, do you want to eat it, I bought one for you? What do you want? This unicorn looks good? Or do you prefer Phoenix?"
Xiao Jue glanced at the various sugar figurines inserted on the haystack, "No."
"Why not?" He Yan is very arrogant, "I have money, I will buy it for you."
Xiao Jue's eyes moved from the sugar man to her face, and the tone was faint, "There is no flower basket."
"Flower... basket?" He Yan somehow, "Do you like the flower basket?"
His tone was as calm as ever, but in the calm, he brought a subtle subtlety that was hard to detect. "Don't you send Chu Zilan a brown sugar flower basket in Jiyang City?"
"How do you know?" He Yan was horrified.
"I just know." The man raised his eyebrows slightly and turned to walk forward. He Yan hurried to keep up with it, and it was after a while. Xiao Jue's tone of speech was a bit uncomfortable.
Well, sending him the opposite thing may make Master Xiao Er mind extra.
"...He gave me a tassel at that time," He Yan clutched his sleeve tightly so as not to be scattered in the crowd, and at the same time begging to express his loyalty: "I also feel that I have short hands and must not owe He gave him a flower basket under the relationship. You know that the love account in the world is the worst. I don’t have a relationship with you, we don’t have to divide it so clearly. Don’t be angry, what is it? Rotten Valley's affairs are still in my heart. Lord Dudu has a large number of people. Don't worry about these little things with the little girl. Xiao Dudu, the second son... little master?"
Xiao Jue seemed to be impatient, and he turned his head away, his face was serious, but the corners of his mouth were slightly raised.
He Yan saw that he didn’t care so much. He saw him selling Yangchun noodles on the side of the street and took him there.
Today you are born, you should eat a bowl of birthday noodles. Come on, I Please!"
The couple who sold the noodles had a wok on the side of the street. The pot was filled with water, the side of the shau was filled with flour, and a pot of salt and vinegar was placed on the small table. Several tables and stools were set up on both sides, which was the shop.
He Yan asked Xiao Jue to sit down first, and ran to the boss lady himself and said with a smile: "A bowl of noodles." After a pause, she said, "Today is the son's birthday," she secretly pointed to Xiao Jue, "please please The proprietress made this bowl of noodles more beautiful, put only eggs, and more green vegetables, and put more braised meat... well, chicken legs..."
"Enough, enough, girl," the boss on the side laughed. "No matter how much, the bowl will not fit."
"Oh," He Yan nodded. "So let's do this first."
The lady boss smiled side by side: "The sitting son is the girl's lover, it's really beautiful to be born."
He Yan blushed and didn't dare to talk.
The proprietress probably didn't know Xiao Jue, but was simply puzzled by Xiao Jue's beauty. "The slave family has been selling this noodle for so long, and it is the first time he has seen such a good-looking young master. As a lover, it is better to call another one The Lantern Festival bowl, stuffed with sesame seeds, the two people in the lantern market eat a bowl of Lantern Festival, and they will be lovers for life and life."
"No need," He Yan smiled. "This young master doesn't eat sweets."
"It's such a pity." The lady boss still smiled, not much to persuade.
He Yan was about to walk towards Xiao Jue. After two steps, he turned back, and the ghostly messenger rushed to the boss lady: "That... let's have a bowl."
The proprietress smiled: "Good!"
When the birthday noodles were delivered, Xiao Jue stared at the bowl in front of him for a moment, "He Yan, are you feeding the pigs?"
The noodle bowl is not big, but it is full of noodles, with an egg lying on it, green leaves, and a few large pieces of braised meat. It is very rich, just look, and it will overflow from the bowl. The bowls of people beside them are all ordinary clear water, except for Xiao Jue, which is very different.
"You eat more," He Yan gave him chopsticks. "Because it's a birthday, of course, I can't just pass it casually. I specially asked the boss lady to give it to you. I invite you, you are welcome."
The eyes of the people around them all fell on their table. For the first time in his life, Xiao Jue was watched with the gaze of the rice bucket, but the girl in front of him held his cheek with both hands, the smile was very sincere, and he held it for a moment, he finally Still fate, picked up the chopsticks and picked up the noodles in front of him.
He Yan was very satisfied, "Remember to eat it."
Xiao Jue's chopsticks shook, trying to maintain calm on the face.
At this time, the proprietress's Lantern Festival also came up, and one round Yuanxiao, exactly nine, was held in a red-bottomed porcelain bowl, which was particularly pleasing. The proprietress didn't know if it was intentional, she just gave her a spoon, and He Yan bowed her head and put it in her mouth, the sesame filling was especially sweet.
When it came out, it was very cold, but the night market was lively, and the crowd was crowded, dispelling the cold. The hot soup in front of him was warm and the Lantern Festival was sweet. The people sitting opposite ate the noodles quietly. Suddenly, He Yan felt a good time.
The days full of danger, conspiracy, calculation and knife light, trance became very far away, it seems that such a calm day as before, can continue for a long time from then on.
She lowered her head and smiled, picked up the spoon and scooped up the Lantern Festival in front of her.
A bowl of Lantern Festival and a bowl of birthday noodles are extremely slow to eat.
Perhaps it was He Yan's "difficult feelings" but perhaps it was because the boss's skill was good. Xiao Jue finally ate up a bowl of noodles. When he put down his chopsticks, He Yan was eating the eighth Lantern Festival in the bowl.
When I was about to pick up the ninth, I suddenly remembered what the boss Mr. Fang Cai said.
"Two people in the lantern market eat a bowl of Lantern Festival, and they will be lovers for life and life."
Throughout her life, she has always felt that the word is far away, but I don’t know when it will start.
Xiao Jue saw her movements and asked, "What's wrong?"
He Yan gently pushed the red-bottomed porcelain bowl towards the middle, raised his head, looked into Xiao Jue's eyes, and coughed a little, "Do you... do you want to eat one too?"
Xiao Jue looked down at the soup bowl with only a Lantern Festival left, and said nothing.
He Yan was inexplicably guilty, and suddenly felt like a demon tempting a good girl, and added: "Remembering that you don't like sweet now... it's still..."
Xiao Jue smiled a little, said nothing, took the bowl over, picked up the spoon that was used by Fang Cai He Yan, and ate the remaining Lantern Festival.
The proprietress was packing up the tableware and chopsticks of the next table, and she smiled and said: "Okay, the two of them eat a bowl of Lantern Festival, sweet and sweet, so happy."
He Yan was shocked, and looked subconsciously towards Xiao Jue, the young man's beautiful eyes stared at her, as if peeping into her secret thoughts.
He Yan
teng
stood up and pulled out a few copper plates from his pocket.
That, after eating, let’s go.

Run away.
After eating enough, visiting the night market, the body will be much warmer. When He Yan and Xiao Jue walked together, they found that there were many people in front of him. He Yan casually asked a younger brother beside him, "Excuse me, what are you doing in front?"
The man glanced at He Yan and said, "I'm guessing the lantern riddle. Today is the last day. If the girl wants to catch up, the more you guess, the more beautiful the peacock lamp might be!"
I have come to visit the night market, and the lively nature will have to join together. He Yan squeezed Xiao Jue hand in hand into the crowd. After drilling, he saw a long corridor under the eaves. There is a piece of paper hanging under the lantern, with the words written on it, which is a riddle. Most of the people here are male and female lovers. Some people guess a lot, and they already have a few lights in their hands. When He Yan looked at it and was eager to try it, he asked Xiao Jue: "Do you have a favorite lantern? I'll help you win one."
Xiao Jue looked down at her: "You help me?"
"Of course, today is not your birthday. I will buy you whatever you want. Whatever it is to win a lantern, anyway, I also studied at Xianchang Hall."
Xiao Jue smiled and was about to speak. Suddenly, someone not far from him called: "Xiao Huaijin!"
He Yan looked back and saw that under the corridor, a pair of men and women were walking towards them, actually Yan He and Xia Chengxiu.
The two of them were wearing goose-yellow tunic skirts at the same time today. Yan He is still the same old man. He never looks at people with his right eyes. When he walked to the front and waited for He Yan to speak, Yan He said to Xiao Jue: "Yo, slacker, I didn't expect that one day I would see Xiao Huaijin coming to the night market."
Compared to Yan He's rudeness, Xia Chengxiu is much gentler, only looking at He Yan and Xiao Jue, laughing: "Girl He, Governor Xiao."
He Yan returned the gift: "Chengxiu girl."
Yan He finally saw He Yan at Xiao Jue's side, and looked at them both, revealing a disgusted expression, "Xiao Huaijin, you should not be accompanying this kid specially...... This guy came to the night market. "He stroked his arm with a gesture, "Nausea died, goose bumps all over!"
He Yan: "..." Where did this person come from and say that others, didn't he accompany his wife to the night market?
Xia Chengxiu pulled a handful of Yan He, Yan He shouted: "What's wrong? I'm right."
"Sorry," Xia Chengxiu smiled at He Yan, "Nanguang is of this temperament, and he laughs, there is no malice. Girl He, do you come to guess the riddle?"
He Yan nodded: "Yes. Just passing by here, General Yan also guessed the riddle?"
"I don't guess what the woman likes." Yan He said: "I came with Chengxiu." His eyes fell on Xiao Jue, "Xiao Huaijin you..."
"He didn't guess, he came with me." He Yan quickly cut off his words. Yan He, this man, became a cockfight once he met Xiao Jue, and he had to compete. If Xiao Jue wants to guess and arouse Yan He's victorious heart, don't visit any night market tonight, just see that they are better than trying to guess the mystery here.
In order to be able to go shopping in other places, He Yan stopped decisively.
"Yes." Yan He said with a chest embraced: "Then guess it quickly."
He Yan and Xia Chengxiu glanced at each other. Xia Chengxiu smiled slightly and took a note on the front lantern below. He Yan also followed her movement and looked at a lantern at hand.
This riddle is simple, "All mountains and mountains have acacia", the words He Yan know, but they don't know what they mean.
At that end, Xia Chengxiu had got a note and read out: "Farewell to the king." She thought for a moment and looked at the boss: "Is this'玢'?"
"The girl has good eyesight." The craftsman who made the lamp smiled and gave Xia Chengxiu a wooden sign with a red brush on it.
It seems to be a collection of ten strokes, you can change a lantern here.
He Yan took a deep breath and felt that it seemed that the riddle he had chosen was not right. It would be better to change to a simpler one. When he thought about it, he walked to a lotus-shaped lantern again and picked up the paper hanging below. .
"No winter and no summer."
He Yan: "..." What is this?
She glanced sideways at Xiao Jue. Xiao Jue was standing not far away, looking at her all the time, He Yan was unwilling to lose face, coughed, and went to another place.
"The fog is lost, the moon is over."
He Yan: "?"
She was about to cry, before Haikou boasted that she had read a book in Xianchang Hall anyway, but now she feels that this book is better than not. What are these things? The words are all known, and how to put them together is confusing. Looking at the women who are guessing on one side, He Yan is one big and two big. He only feels that even if he encounters the most difficult battle, he is not as embarrassed at the moment.
Suddenly holding the note in front of him, a voice came suddenly behind him: "Aren't you going to send me a lantern?"
Somehow, Xiao Jue had come over and stood behind her. He Yan was "um" for a while and said nothing.
The corners of his lips bent. "It seems that your poems have not been lean for so many years."
"The art industry has expertise," He Yan defended daringly, "I can't do both."
He seemed to chuckle softly, the exhaled heat fell on He Yan's neck, itchy. At that end, Xia Chengxiu had guessed ten riddles in the blink of an eye. The craftsman drew ten ink characters on her wooden sign and replaced it with a jade rabbit lantern.
Yan He held the lantern in his arms and proudly said to Chong He Yan: "Why haven't you guessed it yet? You haven't read the book yet? Xiao Huaijin," he embraced Xia Chengxiu in one hand and actually provoked Xiao Jue, "The lady you are looking for is not as good as my wife."
Is Yanhe sick? He Yan was speechless. He thought that other people could not compare with Xiao Jue, was he better than his wife? Who has no strengths and weaknesses, how can they be so superficial!
She was scolding Yan He in her heart, and Xiao Jue whispered in her ear: "Don't care about him." Then, standing behind her, following her movements, picked up the riddle paper in front of He Yan.
Xiao Jue is very tall. When he takes the paper from behind, he needs to lean over slightly and look at it from the eyes of others. It is like he circled He Yan in his arms. He Yan could almost feel the warmth of his back touching his chest, his ears were red, but he forgot to look at the note in front of him again. Xiao Jue said: "The two places are missing."
"Ah?" He Yan froze for a moment.
The craftsman smiled, and came over with a wooden plate: "The son guessed right!"
"Xiao Huaijin, you are cheating." Yan He said angrily: "How can you help her guess!"
"It's your business," He Yan reluctantly replied, "If you are not happy, you can help me guess!"
"Who will help you guess!" Yan He flicked his sleeve. "Walking around, seeing them is upset!" Xia Chengxiu's hand was taken away.
At this moment, He Yan finally had time to gather his mind to the riddle in front of him.
She dragged a note in front to read the words above, and Xiao Jue said the answer behind.
"Since ancient times, passionate love is free."
"Heart is sad."
"Go in ten every ten."
"base."
This man used to be the first in the Xianchang Pavilion. When He Yan thought out the lantern riddle above, he didn't have to think about it, and he just answered the answer in one bite. Xiao Jue's outstanding appearance, a smart and handsome young man, is always particularly eye-catching on such occasions. In a short time, the girl's house of the passionate and the ruthless Lang are all in a circle, or stare at Xiao Jue intoxicated, or It is envious of He Yan.
The nine lantern riddles were almost finished, and He Yan picked up the note of the last lantern.
"Shuangmu Feilin, Tianxia has a heart." After she finished reading, she waited for Xiao Jue to say, "I know, this is Acacia!"
The craftsman laughed: "The girl is pretty blue heart."
He Yan was blushed by this compliment, and one of ten riddles was guessed. She really couldn't afford the compliment. The one who was really good at the heart was the one behind her. The artisan drew her wooden sign as the final stroke, and said to He Yan: "Girl go pick a lantern that she likes!"
He Yan turned back and pulled Xiao Jue: "How about, I said I will give you a lantern, and I will definitely give you. Which one do you like?"
A variety of colorful lanterns hung under the eaves.
He Yan pointed to a Pisces: "This Pisces is pretty, do you like this one? Or this gourd lamp is also good... there is a riding picture on this auspicious lamp..."
From beginning to end, Xiao Jue just smiled faintly, and followed her troubles.
He Yan saw a green gauze lamp on the side, with a pair of landscapes and pavilions painted on it. As people walked, the light and shadow changed, and the waterfall seemed to gurgle. It was very strange. Among the lanterns, this landscape lamp looked down at first glance, but in fact there was a lot in it. He Yan was attracted at a glance, thinking that this lamp was given to Xiao Jue, and should not be ashamed, he said to the craftsman: "I want this one."
The craftsman was busy giving another pair of little lovers a wooden sign, and when they heard it, they said, "The girl just picks herself up."
He Yan said to Xiao Jue: "Wait, I will get you a lamp."
She went to the landscape lamp and was about to take it off. At this time, she heard a familiar voice not far away: "There is a riddle in front of you, would you like to see it?"
Immediately afterwards, a woman's voice sounded, "Okay, I can buy one and hang it in the yard."
He Yan turned around and saw a few steps away, a pair of men and women were coming. The man is gentle and elegant, the woman is beautiful and touching, it is Xu Zhiheng and He Xinying.
Xu Zhiheng was holding He Xinying's hand, and the maid of arms followed by He Xinying had a bunch of gadgets in her arms, probably the kind of rouge gouache she bought while shopping at the night market. These two people seem to be on the face, they are really a pair of people together, Xu Zhiheng smiled and spoiled, and when talking, it was also a gentle drizzle.
He Yan stared blankly, not knowing whether it was ironic or not. She thought that Xu Zhiheng would only accompany He Wanru in the night market, and now it seems that anyone can be as long as he is not himself.
"Girl?" The craftsman saw her standing blankly, reminding him strangely that He Yan turned around, startled, and subconsciously looked at Xiao Jue.
He also stood under the lamp, with a handsome posture, his gaze calm and almost indifferent.
