Chapter 70 Dragon Boat Festival

After buying vegetables at the vegetable market, I returned to the Wang family courtyard, and it was almost noon.

Xu Yuan quickly returned to the kitchen and saw long ears squatting in the corner of the wall at a glance. He immediately took out a carrot from the basket and threw it over.

Long ears came forward and sniffed them, pulled them over, held them and chewed them. While chewing them, they also secretly glanced at her, as if they were guilty.

He no longer cared about the fat rabbit, Xu Yuan then rolled up his sleeves, slaughtered the fish and mixed sauce, and cooked the rice with fire.

After a lot of work, the food was served on the table at about three o'clock.

Xu Yuan gave Wang Yan a meal, and the two sat opposite each other.

"Come on! Husband, I made braised carp, you can try it."

She had a smile on her pretty face and reached out to hold the vegetables for Wang Yan.

Wang Yan held the chopsticks in his right hand and looked at the scene. He was silent for a moment, then placed the chopsticks on the table with a look of guilt.

"I'm sorry! I shouldn't have said that before."

Xu Yuan shook her head.

"My husband needs to be sorry, I know he feels sorry for me, so I don't blame you."

Wang Yan sighed lightly, turned to look at her and said.

"As soon as you enter the practice, you can't help but have no choice! You have thought about it, really want to follow me? Even if you have a hard time in the future, you won't regret it?"

Xu Yuan was full of determination and nodded with certainty.

"Never regret it!"

"It is possible that I will focus on my practice and neglect you."

"I don't care."

"Cultivation cannot be achieved overnight. If you cultivate your heart in the world, you may even encounter all kinds of monsters and monsters, and accidents may occur at any time."

"I'm not afraid."

"If I disappear halfway, or be buried in the mouth of a demon..."

"My husband, don't say such unlucky words. It's only been three years since even the monsters of the White Lotus Sect are no match for you. I believe in my own vision and my husband's strength, and I will definitely be able to ascend to the immortal path."

Xu Yuan quickly interrupted him, and seemed very confident about it.

Wang Yan nodded slightly, his face a little joyful and excited.

"Okay! OK! What kind of virtue is my Wang Yan? I am so lucky to get a wife!"

At this moment, he was really moved by the other party. These words hit his heart deep. The feeling was something he had never before.

"I am going to go back to the master's sect after the Dragon Boat Festival. Then my wife will go back with me! Although there are no examples of female disciples in Laoshan, I can't set a precedent. At that time, I will plead with my master and ask him to accept you. If he refuses, I will find a way."

"Yeah! I'm listening to my husband!"

Xu Yuan Zhanyan smiled and continued to hold vegetables in his bowl.

Wang Yan shook his head immediately and couldn't help but chuckled.

"Silly girl! Have a meal!"

The knot in his heart was untied, and the two of them held each other's vegetables and pushed them around.

"Gugugugu..."

The long ears on the side turned black and jumped onto the table. The half-chewed carrots suddenly stopped smelling and threw them directly onto the table.

Anger from the single rabbit!

...

May 5th is Dragon Boat Festival.

Today is a special day, and the whole city celebrates together.

The bustling crowds on the streets were even more lively than the previous Golden Flower Temple Fair. The vendors on both sides of the street and the peddlers walking around the streets were clamoring and shouting loudly, and the fragrance of the rice dumplings came.

There are lanterns around the restaurant, which are very red and purple, and are extremely festive.

Since yesterday, there have been dragon boat competitions in Cuilu Lake. Most of the participating fishermen are making a living on the pier, all of whom are young and strong.

For a time, the gongs and drums were loud and the weather was for the first time.

On the west bank of the green lake, there were many people gathered at the bridgehead. Wang Yan and Xu Yuan were too lazy to squeeze in, so they stood by the lake embankment and watched from afar.

There are basically Dragon Boat Racing competitions every year on Dragon Boat Festival. Sometimes it is sponsored by the wealthy businessman in his surname, and sometimes the county magistrate participates in it and enjoys the people.

He is about to leave here, so while he is still at home, Wang Yan has temporarily suspended his practice in the past few days and accompanied Xu Yuan to visit everywhere. He has basically been to all the attractions in the city and has basically tasted all kinds of delicacies, which is extremely comfortable.

"Good brothers and sisters, give it some! I haven't had a meal for a few days, give it some!"

After watching a dragon boat race, they felt not very interested, so they immediately left the lake embankment and followed the road on the lake shore to enjoy the scenery.

In places with few people, long ears will automatically follow them, and in places with more crowds, it will jump on Wang Yan's shoulders.

Not far away at this moment, a ragged little beggar, holding a bamboo stick in his right hand and a broken bowl in his left hand. When he saw them coming towards him, he rushed over immediately and kept begging.

Xu Yuan has always been kind-hearted. Seeing that the beggar was not old and was still a little girl, she immediately untied her wallet and prepared to give her most copper coins.

However, the man had just taken out his wallet, but he was quick-witted and grabbed it, spread his feet and ran away.

This place is far away from the dragon boat racing, so the pedestrians are relatively sparse. The little girl ran in the opposite direction and obviously wanted to squeeze into the abortion to avoid their pursuit.

Seeing this, Wang Yan couldn't help but feel angry. He jumped into the little beggar after a few steps, reached out to grab her, grabbed her collar, and took it back directly.

The little beggar said "Ouch" and sat down to the ground.

Wang Yan snatched the wallet back and handed it over to her when Xu Yuan came over.

"I don't study well at such a young age, and I will learn from others to steal and rob. What's the point when I grow up?"

Wang Yan scolded her, but just grabbed her and refused to let go.

Seeing that the little girl could not escape, she simply sat on the ground and cried loudly.

"I can't do anything! My mother-in-law is sick and hungry for several days. I was forced to do this kind of thing too! Woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo w

The little girl cried and made a fuss, which attracted the attention of passers-by around her for a moment, and they all cast strange eyes.

"My husband! Forget it! I've recovered my wallet, just educate me."

Xu Yuan didn't want to make things worse, as the other party was really pitiful.

Take out a small piece of silver from the purse, Xu Yuan squats down and stuffs it into the little girl's hand.

"What about this money! You can use it to treat your mother-in-law and you must not do such a thing again in the future. If it falls into the hands of others, you won't treat you like your sister, do you understand?"

The little girl wiped away her tears and nodded.

"Thank you sister! I remember."

After saying that, the little girl stood up and ran away quickly.

Wang Yan shook his head helplessly and led Xu Yuan to continue moving forward.

I don’t know if it’s because there are many people on the Dragon Boat Festival and need to maintain order or other reasons, but I often see officials and yamen runners in the middle of the road and patrol them.

Although there are also officers who inspect the police on weekdays, the number is not as many as today. And judging from their appearance, they are all extremely serious, carrying shackles and shackles with them, as if they are facing a great enemy.

Before they knew it, the two arrived at the end of the west bank of Cuilu Lake.

Several feet inside the lake embankment, the water flow seemed relatively fast. A mound appeared in the middle of the lake, which looked like an island, with pavilions and a tall tower on it.

There are even fewer pedestrians here, but the scenery is quite unique.

The tower has eight floors in total, called the Lake Center Tower, which looks about seven or eight feet away from the water surface. Standing on the top floor, you can see the scenery on the west bank of the entire Green Lake.

Nowadays, most people are watching dragon boat races and are very enthusiastic, so it is extremely rare for people who come here to watch the scenery in groups of three or three.

Wang Yan waved, called a small boat, and crossed the two of them to the mound in the middle of the lake.

Their interest is really different from that of ordinary people.

In the pavilion, there are all stone tables, stone benches, tea and fruits.

An old man sat next to him, the tower guard who was guarding the pavilion and tower. He also acted as a tea doctor, providing food and drinks to the tourists and making some money.

Although he grew up in the county town, Xu Yuan had never been here before. He felt the breeze blowing from the lake and felt a sense of joy.

“What a magnificent tower!”

Xu Yuan looked up at the tower in the middle of the lake and couldn't help but exclaim, let go and break free from Wang Yan, and couldn't wait to come under the tower, and then prepared to enter from the main entrance.

"Come on my husband, I think the scenery above the tower must be more spectacular than the one below!"

She smiled and jumped like long ears, and was about to enter.

Although he is already a wife, in Wang Yan's eyes, he is still a girl of seventeen or eighteen years old, and he still maintains a sense of innocence.

Wang Yan smiled back and followed from behind.

However, before entering, a sudden scream came from inside.

He was stunned and Wang Yan rushed in quickly.

When I saw a black shadow holding a sharp blade in my hand, I had already held Xu Yuan tightly hostage.

When I saw him, I smiled grimly.
