From the end to the other world

It must have been bored in the house for a long time, and thinking that this day is the Lantern Festival, Shang Qingyue has not even been interested in the needlework that she has been doing since the morning, and every time she looks at Qin Luochuan, her expression is full of desire to speak Still off.

After Suxue pointed out, Qin Luochuan didn't know what he was thinking. After eating at noon, he said, "I used to hear that the Shangyuan Festival in the capital is extremely lively. I don't know if Fulang is convenient tonight, so I will take my husband out for a walk." Come on, I haven't visited the Lantern Festival much yet."

"It's convenient." Shang Qingyue said with bright eyes immediately after hearing the words, but then she thought about her previous concerns, "There must be a lot of people tonight, so I'd better not go out. If you want to go out to play, bring a few people with you Just go."

Qin Luochuan laughed, "Don't worry, you have a husband, are you afraid that you won't be able to protect you? When the time comes, bring Suxue and Tingyu with you, and you go in the middle."

Shang Qingyue understood that her husband was looking at her bored and wanted to take her out to play, but she still couldn't help but muttered: "When you go to the Lantern Festival, you go to the Lantern Festival, why bother?"

"Fu Lang's words are wrong." Qin Luochuan smiled and blinked and said, "I have never been to the capital before as a husband, let alone go to the Lantern Festival, so naturally I have to be accompanied by Fu Lang."

Shang Qingyue gave him a sideways glance, and said nothing, which was regarded as acquiescing.

Husband is sometimes really childish. Shang Qingyue didn't feel it when they first got married. After they were together for a long time, it became more and more obvious. However, this childish expression was only seen in front of him and his father. After going out, the husband still looks like the handsome and elegant young man, so instead of being annoyed, Shang Qingyue felt a secret joy in her heart.

Because she was going out at night, Shang Qingyue changed from her dull look before, and started to prepare things to bring since the afternoon.

The two of them were just going out to visit the Lantern Festival. All they had to prepare was enough money and a hand stove to keep warm.

But Shang Qingyue obviously attaches great importance to it, from the clothes and cloaks that the two of them will wear to the hair crowns on their heads, he has personally selected them.

When it was still dark, Shang Qingyue went into the house to change clothes, and did not let Qin Luochuan follow.

The warm pavilion is connected to the bedroom, and the front of the carved arch is separated by a screen, so you can't see the scene clearly. Qin Luochuan shook his head, never expecting that one day he would have to wait for his partner to get dressed.

Shang Qingyue didn't make him wait too long, but within the time of a cup of tea, Qin Luochuan heard footsteps coming from the bedroom, and reflexively looked behind the screen, but couldn't help but froze on the spot.

I saw that Shang Qingyue was wearing a white wide-sleeved robe and a white cloak, her hair was only tied with a headband of the same color. It was a very plain attire, but because of the bright red drop-shaped spot on her forehead Wiping the forehead adds a touch of glamour.

Seeing this, Shang Qingyue approached Qin Luochuan step by step, and asked with a smile, "How is it?"

He was six months pregnant, but because of the wide sleeves and cloak, it was hard to find out.

Qin Luochuan tossed the book, jumped down from the collapse, grabbed Shang Qingyue's waist and stole some incense, and said with a smile, "My husband is naturally the prettiest."

Shang Qingyue had a blush on her cheeks, and said lightly, "Go change your clothes, let Suxue comb your hair."

"Okay, wait for me for a while." After Qin Luochuan finished speaking, he also entered the bedroom, quickly changed his clothes, and sat in front of the mirror to let Suxue tie her hair.

His hair is thin and soft, and his hands are handicapped, so it is difficult to comb it well. Since he got married, Shang Qingyue has tied his hair every day, but now that Shang Qingyue is old, she will occasionally hand it over to Su Xue. Do.

Suxue carefully bundled her hair and put it on a hair crown, then fixed it with a hairpin, and then asked, "Master, how do you like it?"

Qin Luochuan felt that there was no hair that was pulled into an uncomfortable place, but when he looked closely at the hair crown in the mirror, he realized that the hairpin was the one that Qin Yan gave Shang Qingyue back then, so he couldn't help asking: "Is this hairpin Qingyue's hairpin?" of the month?"

Suxue smiled and said, "The Lord chose me to use this one for you."

"Then use this." Qin Luochuan said indifferently, anyway, the hairpin is the simplest plain hairpin, and it is also suitable for him to tie his hair.

When it was getting dark, the two of them went out with the maid without even eating dinner.

In Qin Luochuan's words, there are so many delicious foods at the Lantern Festival, such as glutinous rice balls, dumplings, sweet-scented osmanthus cake, and sugar-oiled tofu.

Shang Qingyue thought that there would indeed be many snacks for sale on the street, so she let her husband do it, and being told that, he himself became very greedy.

The most lively place of the Lantern Festival was South Street. Afraid that there would be too many people on the road, I asked the boy to drive the carriage to the intersection of the two streets, and they got out of the carriage and walked slowly inside.

At this time, there were not too many pedestrians on the street. After walking for a while, Qin Luochuan found a stall selling glutinous rice balls and sat down. He ordered four bowls of glutinous rice balls, planning to eat something first.

While the stall owner was cooking glutinous rice balls, Shang Qingyue gave Suxue and Tingyu a dime of silver and said, "If you have something you like, go buy it."

It's a big festival, the master's reward and the two servant girls will naturally not refuse, after thanking them with a smile, Ting Yu immediately went to the stall next door to buy tea eggs to eat, and brought one with Qin Luochuan and the others.

When I came back, I peeled the eggshells and said, "I wanted to eat candied haws, but I was afraid that my lord would be greedy, so I had to eat tea eggs."

Shang Qingyue couldn't help laughing, "You know you're afraid of being greedy, so you still say it."

Thinking about the time when he wanted to eat candied haws, he said to eat two, but my husband really only gave him two, not one more.

At this time, the stall owner just finished cooking the glutinous rice balls, Ting Yu hurriedly got up to help serve the bowl, stuck out his tongue and didn't dare to look at Shang Qingyue again.

After eating and resting for a while, the number of pedestrians on the road gradually increased. Several people paid for the glutinous rice balls and continued on their way.

When passing by Ting Yunxuan, just happened to meet Zhou Xun coming out with a maid, Shang Qingyue was stunned for a moment, then stepped forward to greet in surprise: "Brother Xun."

Zhou Xun was also a little surprised, "Are you out to visit the lantern festival?"

"Well," Shang Qingyue said, "Where are you going?"

Zhou Xun smiled and said, "I heard from my buddy that someone put up an extremely beautiful lantern on the other side of the street. Let's go and have a look?"

Shang Qingyue and the others didn't have any special purpose in the first place, they just came out for a stroll, so they complied when they heard the words, and the two groups walked towards the other side of the street together.

When walking forward, Zhou Xun naturally stood on the other side of Shang Qingyue, together with Qin Luochuan, protecting him in the middle.

At the other end of the street, few people didn't need to look for it specially. When they saw the most crowded place from a distance, they knew it was the stall selling lanterns.

The exquisite lantern mentioned by Zhou Xun is hung at the highest point, in the shape of a hexagonal palace lantern, with golden tassels hanging from each corner. The most wonderful thing is the paper-cut inside the lantern, which rotates inside with the airflow of the burning candle Rufei is actually a vivid mime.

Qin Luochuan happened to see all kinds of beautiful revolving lanterns once in his previous life, so he didn't think it was so strange. Shang Qingyue and Zhou Xun who were standing next to him couldn't even walk.

"Do you like it?" Qin Luochuan asked.

"I like it," Shang Qingyue said, "It's just that you should guess a lot of lantern riddles correctly, right?"

The lantern riddles used as signboards at the Lantern Festival are not sold directly, but you can only get them if you guess the lantern riddles from the stall owner correctly. There is no charge for this. Of course, if you guess wrong, how many lantern riddles have you guessed before? , it is necessary to charge money according to the quantity.

Stall owners do this not only to solicit business, but also to make a fortune from it.

When Qin Luochuan was idle and bored, he read a lot of things about lantern riddles on the Internet, and they also held a lantern festival last year, so he still had some confidence in getting that lantern, so he said, "Why don't I try it?" ?”

Shang Qingyue wanted the lantern originally, and her husband was willing to give it a try, so she was naturally happy to see it succeed.

It's just that there was a circle of people in front of the stall, Qin Luochuan took a look and said, "You guys wait for me outside, I'll go in alone."

Shang Qingyue and Zhou Xun retreated to the eaves of the shop on the side of the street. This place is slightly higher than the front, so they can see the situation inside the stall clearly, and it is not easy to be crowded.

When Qin Luochuan passed by, the previous person had just finished guessing, so he raised his hand and said, "I want to try."

The stall owner said to the crowd of onlookers: "Please let this young master come in first." Then he said to the young scholar who had guessed the riddle before: "Young master has guessed 39 puzzles, five coins each, a total of 190 five coins. Randomly choose one of the lanterns on the second floor."

Qin Luochuan squeezed in through the passage made by the crowd, and the young scholar inside happened to turn his head with a lantern, and when they met, they were stunned for a moment.

"Young Master Wen?"

"Treasurer Qin?"

The scholar won nine portions of the Wenshi banquet of immortal chicken in their teahouse last year.

Qin Luochuan glanced at the lantern in his hand, and asked, "Who are you?"

We must know that last year Wen Shiyan's speed of guessing riddles in their teahouse was overwhelming, and there were quite a few Yang Xi who were No. 2.

Wen Shiyan shrugged, and said indifferently, "It failed."

After a pause, he continued: "He has to guess 25 crossword puzzles and 25 other lantern riddles in a row to win the lantern on the top. Shopkeeper Qin guesses first, and I'll take a look at it."

After speaking, he stepped back to the side, leaving the open space in the middle to Qin Luochuan.

As soon as he walked in, the stall owner also added: "Just now, this young master also told you the rules, but if you guess wrong, you will be given a puzzle for five cents, but you can get other corresponding lanterns."

Qin Luochuan nodded to express his understanding: "Bring the puzzle."

Wen Shiyan had just finished guessing, and the box containing the puzzle hadn't been put away yet. Qin Luochuan twisted a ball of paper from the box handed over by the stall owner. After unfolding it, he saw that it said "heavy rain fell on Hengshan Mountain."

Then he replied unhurriedly: "Snow."

The stall owner was not surprised that the first puzzle was guessed. He just went down one by one. After guessing 25 crossword puzzles, he started other puzzles. Qin Luochuan was still calm and unhurried. When it was time, the stall owner was a little anxious.

His lantern is tonight's signature, if it is won so early, it will be a big loss tonight.

But business is like this, since someone guessed right, you can't pretend not to play anymore, you can only bite the bullet and continue until Qin Luochuan has guessed all fifty puzzles.

On the contrary, the stall owner felt a sense of relief, and stepped on a stool to take down the lantern from the highest place and handed it to Qin Luochuan, "This is the lantern you won."

After Qin Luochuan took the lantern, he pointed to the second row of lanterns and asked, "How much is that one?"

"Didn't you already have..." The stall owner didn't expect him to ask such a question, he was stunned for a moment before he realized it, and said with a smile, "One hundred coins each."

Qin Luochuan took out a piece of silver from the purse, handed it to the stall owner and said, "I want the one with plum blossoms, so you don't need to change the extra silver."

"Thank you son, I'll get it for you." The stall owner smiled more sincerely, and immediately turned around to get the lantern for Qin Luochuan.

After waiting for a while, a maid who was watching suddenly ran to Qin Luochuan and asked, "I wonder if the young master is married?"

Qin Luochuan froze for a moment, pointed to the eaves outside the crowd and said, "My husband is waiting for me there."

The crowd of onlookers let out good-natured laughter, while the maid covered her face in embarrassment and ran away.

When squeezing out the crowd with a lantern, Qin Luochuan looked back at the stall again, and found that the stall owner at the highest place had hung up a lantern again. It was also very beautiful, but it was not as good as the one he was holding.

Shang Qingyue and Zhou Xun were under the eaves, watching him squeeze in, and not long after, they came out with two lanterns. The two places were not far apart, and they naturally heard the maid asking Qin Luochuan if he was married. question.

Zhou Xun couldn't help but said to Shang Qingyue: "He treats you very well."

"En." Shang Qingyue nodded in response, walked down the steps first, walked towards Qin Luochuan with a smile and said, "Husband."

Then he nodded to Wen Shiyan who came out of the crowd with Qin Luochuan, and greeted him, "Mr. Wen."

Just after saying hello, I heard someone talking beside me, "Ma'am, the lantern you were looking at earlier was won away."

Immediately afterwards, a maid hurriedly ran up to Qin Luochuan and said, "Young master, please stay."

Several people stood still, and after a while, a young woman, who should be the lady mentioned by the maid just now, slowly walked up to Qin Luochuan and asked, "Master, can you sell the lantern in your hand to my concubine?"

Qin Luochuan shook his head and said, "Sorry, this is what I want to give to Fu Lang."

The woman said again: "I really like this lantern, and I am willing to pay ten taels of silver to buy it."

Although Qin Luochuan didn't know how much the lantern would be worth if it was sold, ten taels for a woman is definitely high, but this is what he won to give to his husband, and it's not a business, he bought low and sold high After earning the difference, he continued to shake his head and said, "Not for sale."

Seeing that he continued to refuse, the woman frowned, and a hint of annoyance flashed in her eyes, "If you don't sell it for ten taels, then 20 taels is fine, you have two lanterns in your hand, wouldn't one be enough for your husband? "

After finishing speaking, she turned her eyes around Shang Qingyue and Zhou Xun, and said again: "Don't tell me you still have two husbands?"

The other lantern was bought to give to Zhou Xun, the reason was just that everyone went to the lantern festival together, Shang Qingyue had one, and he felt a little uncomfortable with empty hands, and spending money to buy a lantern can also make up for it a little The stall owner who won the signature lantern from him.

Qin Luochuan was frank and frank, and had no such dirty thoughts as the woman said, so he couldn't help being a little annoyed when he heard her say that.

But before he had time to say anything, Wen Shiyan next to him sneered and said, "Everyone has said they won't sell it, but you insist on buying it by force. Can't you see that anyone here is short of your 20 taels of silver?" Is it?"

The author has something to say:

Suxue silently took two steps back when she heard Yu heard the words, withdrawing herself from the crowd present.
