The red lanterns are hung high, and the New Year should look like the New Year.
There will be a fireworks show tonight, and the royal family and all the city lords will go to enjoy it together. The Xuanqing Palace was vacated early, and even Noren, who was injured in the previous competition with me, went to the scene with a cane, so I couldn't stay in the Xuanqing Palace and be a salted fish. What's more, I always feel that there is something in my heart that I can't let go of. Going out for a walk can also relax my mind.
The New Year atmosphere in Wangdu is really strong, especially on New Year's Eve. When it really comes to the Spring Festival, everyone will visit relatives and friends to pay New Year's greetings, especially high-ranking people like the royal family and lords. So most people will regard this evening as a completely relaxing carnival, and people's expectations for the expected happiness are often higher than the happiness itself.
Crowds of people.
The roads of the capital are basically impenetrable, filled with a large number of vendors setting up stalls on the street. In fact, according to the laws of the Eternal Heaven Kingdom, you have to set up a stall in a special market, but there is no way. Doing business on this kind of street with people coming and going is really too profitable, and everyone is willing to take a little risk.
I bought a hairpin for Alaya, after all, it's the Chinese New Year. Helping Alaiya arrange her loose blond hair, and then remove the hairpin in her hand, she looks much younger all of a sudden. But thinking about it carefully, Alaiya is indeed a young girl, and she hasn't passed her seventeenth birthday yet. It's just that he has no expression at ordinary times, and he looks much more mature.
In fact, with a different hairstyle and some accessories, she still looks like a little girl.
I walked ahead with a lot of food in my arms. All I ate were snacks bought on the street, such as fried balls, frozen persimmons, grilled squid, almond tofu, etc. I bought whatever I saw, five fingers There are four skewers stuck in the four gaps of the bed, and half a piece of unpeeled sugar cane is still sandwiched under the creaking nest. It doesn't stop until all the change on the body is spent.
Bai Huang combed her hair with double balls today, at first glance she looks like she is cosplaying Mickey Mouse. While walking beside me, he unceremoniously touched the food from my arms and ate, and he still didn’t forget to tell me:
"You can't eat so much, my aunt will help you,"
Anyway, it will be deducted from your salary, so you can eat whatever you want.
In addition to food, there are many interesting things in the capital. Similar to the archery competition, you can get a doll if you hit the red heart with an arrow. But because people who have attainments in martial arts are quite skilled in martial arts, this event is limited to children. Alaiya is obviously also classified as a child, so she pierced the heart with an arrow and won a lot of rewards.
The shop owner patted me on the shoulder and handed a life-sized female doll into my hands. I don’t know how he made such a dead fish-eye sausage mouth doll, especially the shop owner deliberately Put your fingers into the flowery mouth of the doll world, and give me a wicked smile. I hurriedly pushed the oversized doll back and said:
"I can't make it, I can't make it. Let's leave it to those who need it more."
But the boss replied:
"In front of so many people, how can I go back on my word? This young lady won it, so you can accept it, little brother."
In the end, Alaya carried it away on her shoulders. That action looked like she was carrying a corpse, and the rate of turning heads on the street reached a new high. In addition to fishing for goldfish, this Baihuang and Alaya both showed deep mental retardation.
The net was clearly made of paper, and Bai Huang was still muttering about "make great efforts to make a miracle" and "it will work this time", but the result was completely different from success. Alaiya was better. She planned to knock the fish unconscious with the iron hoop first, and then take it away immediately, but after being sternly rejected by the shopkeeper, she also ushered in successive failures.
In the end, Heji was very rewarding.
Probably because he thought that Baihuang would like goldfish, he fished very seriously, and quickly caught several goldfish one after another. It's a pity that Bai Huang just caught up with Bai Huang and became angry because he couldn't catch the goldfish. Seeing that Heji had fished a small bag full, he threw it all back in a fit of anger.
When they all stood up and were about to leave, I found a small golden fish swimming up to me and stopping there. I reached out and touched its head lightly. The goldfish raised its head, spit a bubble towards me, and swam happily around. Soon all the goldfish in the pool gathered around me, and the shop owner praised me:
"Brother, next year's fortune is limitless!"
I scratched my head and said:
"It has nothing to do with luck... It's just that I'm more good at fishing."
When I stood up and waved goodbye to a pool of goldfish, many goldfish jumped out of the water and said goodbye to me.
All in all, today's Royal Capital is definitely a grand ceremony like a carnival, with a sudden increase in consumption and everyone having a great time.
After Baihuang, Alaiya, and Heji and I ate and drank enough, and experienced the entertainment booths again, the night came quietly. The sun was gradually sinking, and the moon appeared as a silhouette on the horizon.
The crowd on the street gradually gathered in one direction.
"The fireworks show is about to start."
A passing couple was discussing this topic.
"I heard that if you make a wish during the fireworks display, it will definitely come true."
"Hey, then we will be together forever."
"Okay~"
"Baby~"
"Heart~"
The two got tired of walking towards the distance together. Not only this couple, but also the people around are talking about this year's fireworks display. It seems that everyone in the capital knows about it and is looking forward to it. I just put the last piece of bread in my mouth, patted the biscuit crumbs on my hands and sleeves, and said to Alaya:
"Shall we go there too?"
Alaya nodded and said:
"good."
Bai Huang asked:
"Do you have any wishes for this year? Just now I heard people say that during the fireworks display, the wishes will come true."
"If it was really that magical, the capital would have set off fireworks every day."
I smiled and said something, and took the three of them to watch the fireworks.
It was getting late, and a gorgeous firework bloomed in the night sky.
The streamer is flickering, and the fire trees and silver flowers are never night.
I raised my head and watched the scene in the sky silently. I didn't pray for anything, but simply watched the fireworks above, enjoying the feeling of watching fireworks with the girls. Because the crowd was a bit crowded, Alaiya and Bai Huang were sticking to me from left to right, who was in the mood to think about it.
I watched the fireworks silently, and couldn't help but feel that it would be great if this kind of time could last forever.
After thinking about it for less than five seconds, I heard the sound of horseshoes trampling behind me. Looking back, many soldiers in military uniforms were galloping on the bluestone road on tall horses, and shouted loudly at the same time:
"Please return to the Xuanqing Palace immediately, all the city lords! Repeat, please return to the Xuanqing Palace immediately! The city lords who have not returned after an hour will be dealt with as treason! Imperial guards, block the gates, no one is allowed Let it go!!"
