Chapter 266 Lantern Festival

Chapter 266 Lantern Festival

Zhang Neng traveled lightly, carrying only one baggage. When Ji Xun, Shen Yuyu and others arrived, he was waiting at the yamen gate with his horse. Ji Xun's carriage was parked next to him.

The group of people rode horses and drove the carriage out of the city.

When they came to the official road outside the city, Zhang Neng dismounted, and Shen Yuhu and others also got off the carriage.

"Master Zhang." Shen Yuyu held up a hand-made spice bag and presented it to Zhang Neng. "This spice bag contains more than a dozen medicinal herbs. If you carry it with you, it can remove moisture and cold.'

"Hey~~How did Miss Shen know that I'm afraid of the cold? Thank you, thank you!" Zhang Neng accepted the sachet with a smile and put it close to his body like a treasure.

"Mr. Zhang, take care of yourself all the way. See you later." Shen Yuyu's voice was choked with sobs. During this period, he respected Zhang Neng as an elder brother. I don't know if we will see each other again after we say goodbye today.

Zhang Neng said with a smile: "Hey~~ Girl Shen, don't be sad, we will have many opportunities to meet again in the future." The women around the Night King have many opportunities to meet.

"Yeah." Shen Yuyu sniffed and responded, taking it as his comfort.

Zhang Neng knelt down in front of Ji Feng, helped him tie his loose cloak tightly, and pinched his little face.

"Ah Feng should study hard and practice martial arts hard. When he is successful in the future, he should thank his brother and sister-in-law. Do you hear that?"

"Ah Feng heard it." The little guy's eyes were full of determination, "A Feng must stand out in the future and repay the kindness of his brother and sister-in-law for their upbringing.

"Ah Feng can do it." Zhang Neng rubbed Ji Feng's little head and looked at Ji Xun, "Mr. Ji, take good care of Shen. See you later."

Ji Xun nodded slightly, "See you later!"

"Xingwang, make good money!" Zhang Neng went over and patted Shen Xingwang on the shoulder: "When you make money, marry your mother-in-law earlier, and then you can also show off your affection in front of your brother Ji Xun and make him jealous.'

"Hehe~~Okay!" Shen Xingwang scratched the back of his head and handed the reins to Zhang Neng, "Master Zhang, have a good trip."

Zhang Neng took the reins and got on the horse, "Go back, we will meet again." After saying this, he clamped the horse's belly and galloped towards the capital.

Watching Zhang Neng's figure completely disappear at the end of the avenue, Shen Yue and others returned to the city.

After entering the city, we went directly to Tai'an Street and drove the carriage from the alley into the backyard of the newly constructed brothel.

"Brother, sister-in-law, did you just acquire this house?" Ji Feng walked into the courtyard with his eyes widened in surprise.

The pavilion, fish pond and garden in the backyard are like a mansion compared to the small courtyard in Shenjia Village.

Of course, the most important point is that from the backyard, you can’t tell that this was originally a brothel, and you can’t even see the scene on Wanhua Street. It’s absolutely amazing!

"Yes, yes, I just settled down. Ah Feng will study in the county from now on." Shen Yuyu happily took Ji Feng's hand, "Come and see with my sister-in-law. You live here, and my brother and sister-in-law live there. "As he spoke, he led Ji Feng to the side room.

"Sixty taels of silver paid for such a good restaurant. Brother Ji Xun, you are so awesome." Shen Xingwang looked at Ji Xun and smiled honestly.

"It's really good." Ji Xun was also very satisfied.

Today is the Lantern Festival. At Jifeng's request, I stayed in the county to watch the excitement. I still stayed in the inn where I stayed the night before. The newly built building needs to be renovated and is currently uninhabitable.

After the carriage was parked and the horses were unloaded, there was a pond next to them and they bought some fodder so that they would not be hungry or thirsty.

After placing these properly, the four of them walked out of Tai'an Street and looked for a place to have lunch.

"Find a good restaurant and try their dishes." Ji Xun said.

"Yes, yes, listen to your husband." Shen Yue was obediently held by Ji Xun's hand, and slowly strolled down the street.

It was dinner time and a festival, and the streets were not as lively as usual. Their ears were full of foreign languages ​​they could not understand. The four of them walked from Wanfu Street to the end of Wanfu Street, and found that in addition to Zuixianlou, there was also a restaurant called The business of Mankouxiang's restaurant was very good, so Ji Xun led everyone into the restaurant.

I found a suitable seat in the lobby and sat down. I called the waiter over and ordered a few of the restaurant's signature dishes. After the dishes were served, everyone tasted them. They all felt that their mouths were full of spices. Sure enough, the restaurant was called 'Mankou Xiang' .

The taste is unsatisfactory, a little better than other restaurants, but not a bit worse than the dishes made with Shen Yugu's spatial spring water.

The appearance is also very ordinary. Modern people pay attention to the "color, flavor", but the dishes cooked in this country are very lacking in the "color" aspect.

The soup was cooked without skimming the foam, causing the soup to become muddy and smelly, and the soup was not stir-fried to color the sugar, which was bland and unappetizing. After eating this meal, Shen Yuyu became more confident in running a restaurant business.

It was already two o'clock in the afternoon when we left the restaurant. The four of us went back to the inn to rest and refresh ourselves for the Lantern Festival.

Dinner was served at the inn. Each of them had a bowl of Yuanxiao, which was probably as sweet as Shen Yue's. After eating, the four of them came out of the inn. The street was already brightly lit and crowded with people, creating a festive atmosphere. It was unprecedentedly intense. The shops on both sides of the street were hung with all kinds of red lanterns. It was so joyful and reflected the peach blossoms on people's faces.

"The wind is booming, everyone, please hold hands and don't get separated." Ji Xun's voice was quickly drowned out among the crowd.

The four people were carried by the crowd to the south of the city. In the south of the city, there was a big banyan tree with ten people hugging each other. Under the shade of the trunk square meter, there were all kinds of beautiful lanterns hanging, making it look like a fairyland.

Under each lantern hangs a piece of red paper half the size of a palm, with lantern riddles written on it, dancing with the breeze.

There are crowds of people under the lanterns, admiring the lanterns and guessing the lantern fans, creating a lively atmosphere.

"I heard that the newly appointed county magistrate has set up a reward, and everyone from one to six will get a reward." The tourists discussed it enthusiastically.

"Isn't it? The prizes jointly provided by the county government and various merchants in the city are quite generous, so you should try them.'

"Come on, let's explain this lantern mystery together: a dragon in the mud, a hood on its head, a body full of joints, and a belly full of small holes...

There were too many people. Shen Yuyu was protected by Ji Xun in front of him, while Shen Xingwang put Ji Feng on his neck and carried him all the way.

"Axun, Axun, how about we also guess the lantern fans and win the first prize." Shen Yuyu was very interested. She lived in the countryside in modern times, and then went to school again. This was the first time she participated in such a lively and exciting event. Fun holiday.

"Okay, it's up to you." Ji Xun put his right hand around her shoulders from behind, rested his chin on the top of her head, and stretched out his slender white hand to pull a piece of red paper.

Read: "Just leave as soon as you say (guess an idiom)"

"I know, I know." Ji Feng raised his little hand high, and when he was about to say the answer, Shen Xingwang quickly stopped him, "Guess the riddle, don't say it out loud, unscramble the paper with the riddle written on it and hold it, look at that one over there Isn’t there a small stage? When the time comes, we’ll go over there and do the statistics. The one with the most paper signatures will be ranked first.’
