Madam, She Has a Tender Heart

It is said that it is better to follow a beggar mother than a government official father. Dabao knew that his mother was worried about him.

It was not that his mother did not trust his father, but that there were too many people around him, and too many people depended on him for their livelihood.

His mother was just worried about him.

Now that his father knew, he could not let his father and mother have a rift because of his affairs, otherwise he would be a sinner.

Lu Bocheng helped him up and sighed: "Dad did not blame your mother, nor did he blame you. Your mother's approach was right. There are too many people around Dad. If Dad drinks too much or talks in his sleep and tells your life story, you will be in danger."

At this moment, Lu Bocheng suddenly thought it through. Why should he be so stubborn with himself.

Doesn't his wife love him enough?

Lu Bocheng talked with Dabao in the room for a long time, talking about their family, the current situation in the world, and what Dabao can and cannot do now and in the future.

The father and son were frank with each other and talked for a long time, which resolved Dabao's and Lu Bocheng's knots.

"Dad, I don't want to change the current situation. I just want to be your son forever, your own son."

Lu Bocheng patted Dabao on the shoulder: "What nonsense are you talking about? You don't have to think about it. You are your son." He wiped his son's tears and turned to leave his son's yard.

Dabao followed his father and sent his father out of the yard. When he could no longer see his father's figure, the corners of his mouth curled up. He is his father's own son, forever.

This New Year's Day is the first New Year's Day that Dabao, Xiaobao, his father, mother, and sister have celebrated together.

The two brothers were so excited. They started preparing for the New Year's Day after Laba.

They followed their mother to the street to prepare New Year's gifts and New Year's goods, followed their father to socialize, and then took their sister in their arms. The whole family went shopping together, watched plays, listened to books, and watched acrobatics.

The three brothers and sisters had their mother on the left and their father on the right. They were so happy.

Early in the morning, when the wax flowers were harvested in the mountains, Su's father and mother sent them several carts of semi-finished candles.

After receiving the goods, Su Qing'an and Lu Bocheng took several children to make various candle molds, and then boiled the candles together to make various candle products.

Lu Bocheng had only heard that his wife planted white wax trees in the mountains, harvested wax flowers, and boiled them into candles, which could sell for a lot of money every year.

I heard that the whole mountain is now planting white wax trees. After these years of development, the mountain people in Lianzhai can make a lot of money just by selling wax flowers every year.

Every household wanted to make a statue of Su Qing'an and worship it.

Who dared to think that the people in the mountains were so poor before, and the people without land and houses could not survive, so they had to hide in the mountains. There are houses and fields outside, who would want to hide in the mountains?

I didn't expect that now I can't even go into the mountains.

There are treasures everywhere in the mountains. Anything can be sold for money. How can we let others settle in the mountains?

The gates of each village are getting thicker and thicker. In recent years, the number of guards has increased a lot. The guards are no longer as strong as they were a few years ago.

Father and mother Su collected wax flowers from the mountains, boiled them into semi-finished products, and sent them to Xuzhou for the children.

Dabao and Xiaobao took Xiaoqi and found a carpenter to make various molds. They personally boiled wax oil and poured it into the molds to make various candles.

The three brothers and sisters enjoyed it every day.

Lu Bocheng watched the children happy, and heard his wife and two sons talking in front of his daughter about how lively the Lantern Festival in the mountains was. The daughter jumped up and asked why her mother didn't take her to see it.

Su Qingmei was so amused.

Lu Bocheng didn't want his daughter to be disappointed, so he asked the Xuzhou government to post a notice that Xuzhou City would hold a Lantern Festival this year.

Xuzhou has no shortage of money these years, so it is as lively as it can be.

It is the New Year, and the governor suddenly did this. The officials of the yamen, who were originally planning to stop writing, were so busy that they were exhausted.

The people of Xuzhou all crowded to the notice wall to read the notice. Lantern Festival? They are going to hold a Lantern Festival in Xuzhou? Garden tour? Watching lanterns? Guessing lantern riddles? Lantern Festival, it must be very lively.

The people of Xuzhou were all excited. Not only did the children run on the street every day to wait for the actions of the yamen, but even the adults were looking forward to the hanging of lamp posts and ropes on the street and the establishment of secluded activity venues.

The merchants in Xuzhou City were originally checking accounts, closing accounts, and preparing to close the doors for holidays. Who would have thought that their governor would do this? Well, now, don't close the doors, stay open.

The business before the New Year is equivalent to a month in normal times in one day.

Anyone who doesn't open the door is a fool.

On the morning of the New Year's Day, Dabao, Xiaobao and Xiaoqi dressed up and went to their parents' room to wish them a happy New Year. After receiving lucky money, they happily gathered in front of their parents and wished each other a happy New Year.

Qingyang also brought Yi Teng to wish Su Qing'an and Lu Bocheng a happy New Year. He also received lucky money.

After the servants in the mansion had greeted the adults, the wives and the young masters, Su Qing'an took the children to Lu's house to wish Lu Shengcai and others a happy New Year.

At Lu's house, the family had the first meal of the New Year together.

After returning to the mansion to rest for a while, the children couldn't hold back and urged the kitchen to prepare dinner early. After taking a few bites, they put down their chopsticks and ran out of the mansion.

Dabao and Xiaobao, holding Xiaoqi, Ma Zheng, Ma Yan, Qingyang, Yi Teng and others, all ran out to the street.

"These children didn't wait for us." Lu Bocheng complained. He pulled Su Qing'an to follow behind.

"Don't you always think that the children are noisy? You have always said that you two want to have some peace and quiet for a long time. Now that the children are not in front of you, you are complaining again." Su Qingyu glanced at him sideways.

"Yes, you are right. The children have left just in time. As for me, I just happen to be with you in peace and quiet. You can watch the lights with me."

Su Qingyu smiled, let him hold her hand, and walked out of the house.

The night has not yet completely closed, and the streets are already filled with bright lights and numerous silhouettes of people.

Su Qingyao was a little worried about the children: "I wonder if Dabao and Xiaobao can take care of Xiao Qi? The boys are probably going to play crazy today and insist on holding Xiao Qi."

"Look at you, you said you would watch the lights with me, but you still have to worry about a few children. Xiaobao may forget his sister if he escapes, but Dabao will not. And there is a guard woman following them. Following them in the dark There are quite a few of them. Don’t worry.”

"There are also dark places?"

Lu Bocheng nodded: "Yes, there are so many people today, and I can rest assured that I won't be watching in the dark?"

After hearing what he said, Su Qingyu felt relieved. Enjoy the lanterns with him.

At the beginning, there were not many people on the street. They still had the leisure to look left and right, occasionally commenting on the work results of the yamen and the servants, and then appreciating the highlights of the lanterns hung by various merchants and comparing them. Ichiban.

When the night fell completely, the number of tourists on the street gradually increased, and they were crowded together.

Lu Bocheng half hugged Su Qingnao, protecting her and moving slowly step by step, fearing that others would scratch her.

Su Qingyu nestled peacefully in his arms, feeling doubly at ease. Look at him from time to time.

"Madam, what's wrong?"

Su Qingyu smiled at him: "Thank you for being by my side."

Lu Bocheng took out his hand and gently scratched her pretty nose: "What nonsense, I'm not with you, where are you going?"

Su Qingnao smiled and let him protect her, admiring the lanterns with him. When the mood struck, the two of them went to various merchants to guess lantern riddles. Lu Bocheng also won a lotus lantern for Su Qingnao, who happily held it in her hand.

The street was brightly lit like daylight, with people flowing in and out, and the sounds of vendors on both sides were endless. Lu Bocheng took her to try and eat together. After a while, the two of them were full.

"Madam, I can't bear any more for my husband."

Su Qingnao wanted to try every snack. After taking one or two bites to get a feel for the taste, he threw it to Lu Bocheng. Lu Bocheng was fed by his wife all the way, which made him feel a little stuffed.

"If I had known about the evening meal, I would have just followed the example of the children and only had two bites." I had eaten too much for the evening meal, and now I am so full that I have to bear the sweet burden that my wife has thrown at me.

"Then let's take a leisurely stroll and eat. By the way, Pei Shi and some other adults just invited you to the restaurant to look at the lights. Do we want to go?"

Lu Bocheng thought for a while and shook his head: "I'm not going. I've been busy for a whole year, why don't you let me take a break? I have to worry about socializing now, and I'm exhausted. Besides, what's there to talk about with them? It’s more important that I watch the lanterns with my wife.”

"Okay, let's buy some lotus lanterns and put them in the river, hoping that our family will be safe in the coming year."

"Okay." Lu Bocheng agreed and took his wife to buy lotus lanterns.

The couple each carried many small lotus lanterns and crowded to the crowded river.

"Mother, mother, this way! We are over here!" Xiaobao's sharp eyes saw them and immediately raised his hand to say hello.

Xiaoqi sat on Qingyang's neck and raised her little hands towards them: "Father, mother, come quickly!"

Dabao and his guards squeezed a way for his parents, and the couple walked towards the children.

"Mom and dad, did you also buy so many lotus lanterns? Are they to pray for our family?"

Su Qingyu nodded.

Xiao Qi had already returned to his father's arms and said enthusiastically: "The eldest brother and the second brother bought a lot, wrote our names on them, and put them in the river. Our family will be safe next year!"

"Really?" Lu Bocheng pinched his daughter's nose happily.

"Dad, don't pinch it! It won't look good if it collapses!"

"Okay, dad won't pinch you." The little girl was a liar and knew that she was pretty. Lu Bocheng happily bumped the little girl in his arms.

Su Qingyu looked at the lotus lantern in her hand and said to Qingyang: "Then write the names of our family members too, and pray that everyone will be safe."

"I've written it all." Qingyang babbled as he squeezed into the river and leaned against the slowly drifting lotus lanterns.

"Then I pray that the people of Zhenhai will be safe."

"Okay." Qingyang took it.

When the people nearby heard it, they immediately cheered: "Peace be upon you, peace be upon Zhenhai."

Lu Bocheng and Su Qingyu looked at the cheering crowd and were very excited.

Lu Bocheng stretched out his hand, held Su Qingyu, and looked at her intently, as if he couldn't get enough: "Madam, from now on, I will accompany you to the lantern festival and put out river lanterns with you every year, okay?"

Su Qingyao nodded: "Then you have to work hard to make Zhenhai safe. You must also be safe so that you can watch the lantern show with me every year."

"Okay. I will work hard for my husband."

Dabao, Xiaobao and others also crowded forward: "We will work hard too."

Su Qingyu and Lu Bocheng looked at the children and relatives surrounding them, looked at each other and smiled. The world is at peace, my family is safe, and I wish to live happily ever after with my wife and husband. (End of text)
