The dumplings were cooked and brought to the table. One bite to go down, very soft and glutinous. The whole family sits together and eats dumplings, which symbolizes the reunion of the new year.
After eating the glutinous rice balls, Mother Shen took out some fireworks and firecrackers, "I have to let them go today. Let's take them out and play."
Yang Qiong and Shen Qiuhua were like children who got toys and went out happily. When they got to the yard, Yang Qiong sorted these things into categories, and handed them all the fireworks to Shen Qiuhua. It was safer for her to set off the firecrackers.
Gorgeous fireworks illuminate the night sky, complementing other people's displays. Loud firecrackers herald an auspicious year.
Shen Qiuhua put the fireworks on the ground like a child, and stretched his arms to light a stick of incense. Once it's lit, run away immediately. Looking at her clumsy appearance, Yang Qiong found that this empress who often crushed her in all aspects finally had such an incompetent side.
Another firework was lit, and Shen Qiuhua ran away with small steps, crashing into Yang Qiong's arms at once.
"Look, you play really high." Yang Qiong wiped the sweat from her forehead with a smile. As for it, I'm sweating when I put off fireworks, I'm really invested.
"I've never played in my previous life." The slightly pouted mouth seemed to be telling his grievances.
"Okay. I'll play with you." With the addition of Yang Qiong, the consumption rate of the fireworks increased exponentially. It's all over soon.
"No more." Shen Qiuhua seemed to be still unfinished.
"Would you like to stop buying some?" It's rare for her to be so childish. Wouldn't Yang Qiong feel bad about money
Shen Qiuhua shook his head. "Come in."
After entering the room, Yang Qiong was afraid that she would catch a cold due to sweating, so she took a towel to help her dry her sweat. "I'm going to see the lights in a while, take a good rest, get rid of your sweat, and don't catch a cold."
"Yang Qiong is really good at taking care of people." Mother Shen boasted.
"I will only take care of Qiuhua." Yang Qiong said jokingly.
Mother Shen also really thought it was a joke. "If you are a boy, I will decide to marry Qiuhua to you."
"Auntie, you can coax me. I don't care, I'm a woman and I want to marry Qiuhua. You can do it, marry Qiuhua to me, okay?" Mother Shen's arms swayed.
Shen Qiuhua's eyes twitched. This Yang Qiong, why is this crazy
"Okay, you child. You are so coquettish." Mother Shen was helpless.
"Then you agreed." Yang Qiong was really joking, but she didn't take it as a joke. Immediately rushed over and hugged Shen Qiuhua, "Qiuhua, my aunt married you to me. You are mine now."
"Okay, stop fooling around." Shen Qiuhua wouldn't be as crazy as she was.
"I'm not fooling around, Auntie—" The long voice dragged on, and Mother Shen nodded immediately. "Okay, pack up, let's go out to see the lights."
When the family of four arrived in the county town where they usually go to the big fair, the place was already crowded with people. All kinds of lanterns hang in row after row.
"The east wind puts flowers and thousands of trees at night. It blows even more, the stars are like rain. The carves of BMWs fill the road. The phoenix flute moves, the jade pot turns light, and fish and dragons dance all night." Shen Qiuhua recited Xin Qiji's "Qingyu" case". Although she had strict etiquette in her previous life, before entering the palace, she could still come out with other female relatives to enjoy the lanterns during the Shangyuan Festival. It was the happiest time of the year for her.
Which girl is not pregnant? How many people have the dream of being able to meet young talents by chance, and then love each other, and share the dream of being married and looking forward to encountering each other in the Shangyuan Festival. Only she did not have such a dream. Because she knew that she would be sent to the palace when she was old, she never thought that such an encounter was a beautiful dream. If it is a dream, it can only be a nightmare.
What she is looking forward to is that this year's lanterns are more beautiful and the lantern riddles are more interesting. It is such a simple expectation, but it allows her to enjoy the fun of the festival the most.
Now, she can go out every day. There is no need to look forward to the few festivals. However, the love for the Lantern Festival still remains.
The family is not walking fast. When you encounter lantern riddles, you can guess two at will, and some guesses are correct and some are wrong. Anyway, it's Tu Yile, and no one cares after laughing.
Shen Qiuhua's picturesque eyebrows are particularly beautiful under the reflection of the lanterns. The soft and delicate beauty makes many passers-by stop and watch.
Shen Qiuhua noticed this and lowered his head helplessly. The hand was pulled by the people around her, and Yang Qiong's voice also reached her ears. "Don't be afraid, I'm here."
Yeah, it's great to have Joan Young here.
Shen Qiuhua raised his head again and continued to admire the lantern. She doesn't need to care about the eyes of those people. Women are those who please themselves. Her beauty only blooms for Yang Qiong alone.
The four went home after seeing the lights. On the way, Yang Qiong took Shen Qiuhua's hand and walked slower and slower. Shen Qiuhua turned to look at her suspiciously.
"Don't look back, someone is following us. You tell your parents to go first. Let's go back in a detour." Yang Qiong whispered. He took Shen Qiuhua's hand and shook it hard, reassuring her.
"Mom and dad, you go first. Let's go buy something over there." Shen Qiuhua waved to his parents as he spoke, and turned with Yang Qiong and turned into a small alley.
"Don't be afraid, I'm here." Yang Qiong comforted.
"I'm not afraid." Shen Qiuhua was not someone who had never seen the world. When it comes to life and death, she knows far more than Yang Qiong.
Coming out of the alley, there were two burly men in the face. Yang Qiong looked behind her, and three people followed. Five people surrounded the two gradually.
Yang Qiong carefully protected Shen Qiuhua. He asked coldly, "What are you going to do?"
A man with a shaved head came over and stared at Shen Qiuhua in Yang Qiong's arms. "Shen Qiuhua, have you forgotten me? Lv Shaojie maimed my brother for you. He's out now, I haven't waited for him to settle the account, and you came out again today. That's fine, I'm not embarrassed You. Anyway, you are the woman my brother likes. As long as you are willing to marry my brother, we will be over."
Shen Qiuhua looked at this strange man, but could understand what he said. I just didn't expect this to happen after all these years.
"She won't marry your brother. You should just die." Yang Qiong was not happy. Qiuhua is my wife, marrying your brother? Damn you!
The bald man squinted at Yang Qiong, "Who are you? Lu Shaojie isn't here, you've come out to be the flower guardian again. Do you have that ability?"
Yang Qiong took a deep breath, "Would you like to try it?"
"Ouch! It's the first time I've seen such a horizontal woman. What? Do you still want to make a gesture?" The bald man said and began to show his arms and roll up his sleeves.
Before the sleeves were rolled up, Yang Qiong had already shot. She dislikes fighting and pulling a stance or something. It's just a fight, it's not a game, why don't you just do it
The bald-headed man had just rolled up his sleeves twice before being kicked to the ankle by Yang Qiong. What is the power of Yang Qiong's kick? The bald man fell to the ground and tried several times, but he didn't stand up again.
"You can stand up even if you are powerful!" Yang Qiong sneered. If she hadn't controlled her strength, it would have been possible for her to kick the fracture directly.
The other four looked at each other at this gesture, and started working together. Yang Qiong's hands clenched into fists, even kicking and beating, knocking everyone down without much effort. Then everyone who wasn't relieved got kicked. Then he bent down in front of the bald man. "Don't compare me to Lu Shaojie. I'm a hundred times more difficult to handle than him. And..." She poked her hand at the opponent's ankle, "I'm not stupid enough to maim people. I think it's easier to just kill them. ' Her tone was frivolous, extraordinarily threatening. But the bald man feels that this is not intimidation, it is the truth.
"Who are you?" Difficult words came out of the bald man's mouth.
Yang Qiong pointed to Shen Qiuhua behind him, "Her bodyguard. The kind that is inseparable. You remember, don't hit her again. Otherwise, it won't hurt so much. I'm not trying to scare you, really." Yang Qiong At this time, he looked like someone from the underworld, patted the other person's cheek, revealing his white teeth.
The bald man didn't speak, staring at Yang Qiong with a hint of hidden fear in his eyes. If the man were a man, he might not be so afraid. But this person is a woman, a woman with powerful and strange skills, which in itself is an unreasonable existence.
After sending these five people away, Yang Qiong took Shen Qiuhua and continued to walk back. "Looking at you like this, let me guess, I think you worry about Lu Shaojie any more."
Shen Qiuhua did not deny it. Since these five people appeared, she has been worried about Lu Shaojie's safety. She believed that Yang Qiong would solve the situation in front of her easily. For a person who could survive a hail of bullets from gangsters, wouldn't it be easy to deal with these people who can only be called gangsters? But Lu Shaojie was different. He has already been in prison for Shen Qiuhua and can't implicate him again.
"I don't want to owe him another favor."
Yang Qiong sighed. Although hearing that the name Lu Shaojie would make her a little upset, she was even more reluctant to let Shen Qiuhua owe him favor.
Human debt is the most difficult to pay. Better to clear the relationship as soon as possible.
"Today is too late. Let's talk about it tomorrow." Shen Qiuhua felt that it would be safer to think about this kind of thing tomorrow after clearing his head.
"It's all up to you."
The next morning, Shen Qiuhua hesitated with his phone.
"I don't know what to say?" Yang Qiong asked.
Shen Qiuhua nodded. After all, I am still unfamiliar with Lu Shaojie, so it is not easy to say.
"My experience is that if you don't know what to say, just say it. If something goes wrong, at least tell the truth. That way you have a clear conscience."
Shen Qiuhua thought for a while, but decided to accept Yang Qiong's suggestion. She didn't want to make it too complicated. Lu Shaojie saved Shen Qiuhua and she was very grateful. But it's just gratitude. In the subsequent meetings, she could see that Lu Shaojie was a bright and upright person. She didn't take any favors in return, which made her very important. From the point of view of a superior, he is a loyal man.
The phone was dialed, and it was quickly connected. Lu Shaojie's voice was still a little awake, obviously not awake yet. "Hey, who is it?"
