I am cannon fodder, but I can hug thighs

"That's not necessary." Now that everyone in the court has heard of Lin Jin's name, there is no need to disguise herself. "Just do whatever you want."

Lin Jin just wanted to ask for advice, but since Song Shiqiu said no, it saved her a lot of trouble: "Then why did you come here?"

Song Shiqiu: “…”

So he can't come here unless he has something else, and can't see Lin Jin, right?

Song Shiqiu didn't know how many times Lin Jin had secretly driven him away. Sometimes he really felt that what others said was not wrong at all. Lin Jin was really heartless and unromantic, like a piece of wood.

Lin Jin looked at his silence and reacted suddenly, "Oh, you missed me. Okay, I accept this reason."

She stood up and patted her clothes. Her hands and feet were already sluggish in the winter, and even after soaking them in warm water, they didn't feel much warmth, and the stiffness didn't get relieved.

After Lin Jin wiped the water off her hands, she quickly picked up the hand warmer. She sighed helplessly: "Sir, what can I do with you?"

In modern times, dating includes watching movies and catching dolls. What can she do with Song Shiqiu here? Song Shiqiu can't do what she can do, and she can't do what Song Shiqiu can do. They are both hardworking people. They can't go ice fishing in winter, can they?

"Let's go. Last time, all the girls in the courtyard had hot pot. Xunmian and Xing'er didn't have it in the academy. Let's take them to have barbecue." Lin Jin clapped her hands and made a decision immediately. "I haven't seen Chunzao for a long time. I wonder how she is doing now. Let's take her along!"

"You girls are just gossiping together, what am I doing standing there?" Song Shiqiu looked at her angrily.

Lin Jin pretended to be thinking: "You just take care of eating. I don't like barbecue, I like to grill for others, you just sit aside and be the eater and listener."

Isn’t it good to be able to eat and listen at the same time?

She looked at Song Shiqiu's face, which couldn't be any colder, and laughed, no longer teasing him: "Okay, it's just a joke, but they have helped a lot in Taiyuan Prefecture during this period of time. Now that they are back, it's good to make them happy."

"Let's go enjoy the snow, come on." Lin Jin pulled him out and asked someone to go to the academy to arrange roast lamb for tonight.

Outside the curtains the snow begins to fall, the fragrance of the green canopy remains and the fire is still burning.

There is no curfew in the capital, and the snow is not very thick now. In addition, every household has started to use the vegetable greenhouses. This year's winter nights are much more lively than in previous years. Not only do people visit each other, but many girls and boys also come out with lanterns to walk in the snow and enjoy the night view.

"It's really lively tonight. There are usually not many people here. You have seen snow since you were young. Don't you get tired of it?" Lin Jin looked at the small vendors who came out to set up stalls on winter nights. She thought those masks were interesting, so she pulled Song Shiqiu over there.

"Auspicious snow means a good harvest, it's natural, and this year is indeed a bumper year." Song Shiqiu saw that she was choosing the mask seriously, "Do you like it?"

"It's OK. I just find it interesting." Lin Jin picked two masks, one for each of her and Song Shiqiu. "When I was a kid, I saw them... I was so envious. I thought those masks were really pretty, but the masks we sold back then were all made of floppy plastic and not fun at all."

Although there were no comic books or game consoles, there were still many things in this era that satisfied her childhood fantasies.

Lin Jin held the mask in one hand and held his hand with the other. Although there were many people out to play, it was not crowded. "If it was the Lantern Festival, wouldn't it be more lively?"

"Yeah." Song Shiqiu curled his lips slightly.

Lin Jin looked at the lanterns being sold over there, her eyes filled with amazement: "These lanterns are so beautiful."

It is 10,000 times more beautiful than those perfunctory and crudely made lotus lanterns! The lotus lanterns are lifelike.

"Song Shiqiu, I like this, I really like it!" Lin Jin pointed at the lantern stall and looked at Song Shiqiu with longing in her eyes.

Song Shiqiu was stunned. This was the first time he saw such strong emotions in Lin Jin's eyes. Before she could say anything, Lin Jin trotted over with the mask in her hand.

Lin Jin reached out to touch the lanterns, but was afraid that the paper lanterns would be damaged, so she withdrew her hand before touching them. Her look of wanting to touch but not daring to do so made the stall owner laugh.

"If you like it, take it down and have a look. Although it's made of paper, it's very strong as long as it doesn't come into contact with water." The stall owner took down the lantern that Lin Jin wanted to touch just now and handed it to her.

Lin Jin felt a little embarrassed, but also a little nervous as she took the lantern. The bright yellow flame illuminated the outline of the lantern, and the tender green branches and leaves and the lotus pink petals complemented each other perfectly.

"Beautiful." Lin Jin looked at Song Shiqiu, but soon turned his attention to the other lanterns on the stall. In addition to flower-shaped ones, there were also various animal-shaped ones, all of which were lifelike.

Song Shiqiu took out a gold ingot from his purse and placed it on the stall: "Take one of each style of all your lanterns and send them to the Prime Minister's Mansion."

"You don't need so many. One is enough." Lin Jin raised the lantern in her hand. "Just this one is enough. There are so many girls here. They will definitely like such a beautiful lantern."

Song Shiqiu was about to say that there is no such thing as too much good things, but was blocked like this. He smiled helplessly and said, "Okay."

The stall owner was thinking about how he would find the difference between this huge gold ingot and the gold. It would be more than enough to buy all the lanterns in his stall. Then he heard about the Prime Minister's Mansion and before he could say anything, the two men just left.

"Hey..." The stall owner's voice just rose and fell, looking at the man who suddenly appeared in front of the stall, "Sir, what are you doing..."

"Hush!" Jingshan raised his index finger and glared at him. "You are such a fool, don't you? Don't bother our master and our lady. It's rare that our lady likes something. Just keep this gold ingot. Your lantern is liked by our lady, so this is a reward for you."

Lin Jin looked at the lanterns for a long time, and liked them more and more. She saw someone in the distance touching the ice with his feet to test whether the lake was frozen solid. She tilted her head and asked, "What is this for?"

"The children are playful and might want to wear ice skates to play." Song Shiqiu said as he winked at the family guards who were secretly following him to pull the children back. If the ice was not solid, it would be easy for them to fall into the water. "It will take some time for the lake to freeze completely. If you want to play, I'll have someone build an ice rink for you at home."

Lin Jin shook her head: "No, I can't. It hurts to fall in winter. No, no, no."

Thinking of the doubled pain in winter, Lin Jin shuddered, but soon she remembered something.

"I want to make an ice lantern!" Lin Jin inexplicably remembered the protagonist in the textbook whose family couldn't afford a glass lantern, so his father made him an ice lantern. However, he hadn't seen snow for so many years, so he had forgotten this dream.

"Ice lantern? What is it? A lantern made of ice?" Song Shiqiu was a little confused. If the lampshade was made of ice, wouldn't it melt quickly?

"Yes!" Lin Jin said as she was about to pull Song Shiqiu back, "Sir, you gave me a flower lantern, and I'll make an ice lantern for you."

But after the two of them returned, Lin Jin remembered that there were no ice blocks that big and thick enough yet. Even if she wanted to make ice lanterns, she had to wait until the ice was frozen first.

Lin Jin smiled awkwardly at Song Shiqiu: "I forgot, there is no ice."

Song Shiqiu chuckled: "No, there is."
