Chapter 1200 Spring Festival
After the New Year, the whole capital city becomes more lively, with all kinds of banquets, gatherings, social interactions, and people are overwhelmed.
After being busy for several days, things slowly returned to normal, allowing people to breathe a sigh of relief.
Although it was Qiao Xuan's first time to attend various parties and banquets during the Spring Festival, everything went very smoothly and she did not encounter any difficulties.
First of all, of course, rising tide lifts all boats, because with the guidance of Old Tutor Yun, Shao Yunduan's status immediately changed from an ordinary scholar to a remarkable scholar. No one dared to look down on him or bring up his background, otherwise wouldn't it be an insult to the old tutor's vision?
Insulting the old tutor's vision, are you making enemies with all the scholars in the world?
In addition, the prince thought highly of him, so no one would be so tactless as to confront him. On the contrary, there were more people who took the initiative to make friends with him.
As his wife, Qiao Xuan naturally benefited from it.
Secondly, Qiao Xuan had given good New Year gifts to Shao Yunduan's elders and colleagues from the Prince's faction before the New Year.
The items were valuable, to their liking, affordable and easy to use, so naturally the ladies were all very happy.
The wife of a young official with a promising future and highly valued by the crown prince, who is also so considerate, sensible, and respectful to her elders, who wouldn't like such a junior? Who wouldn't be willing to lend a hand?
Therefore, wherever Qiao Xuan went, there were people who would take her there enthusiastically, introduce her to people, and tell her a lot of gossip.
After being busy for a while, Qiao Xuan took a good rest at home for two days.
Hearing the ladies talk about the lively Lantern Festival, I can't help but look forward to it.
When talking to Shao Yunduan, Shao Yunduan immediately smiled and said, "I also heard that the Lantern Festival is quite lively. I will go with you then."
Qiao Xuan smiled and nodded: "Yes, we also need to buy a lamp."
“Okay, buy a lamp!”
On the Lantern Festival, they had a simple dinner at home early and then went out.
Even in the capital, such a large-scale festival "for the people to enjoy together" is rare a year, so the Beginning of Summer, Beginning of Autumn and Turquoise are all brought together.
After agreeing on the time and place to meet, Shao Yunduan told Song Shi to follow Lixia and Liqiu closely, and the three of them must not get separated.
As for him and Qiao Xuan, of course they don't want to be accompanied by these annoying people.
The two of them joined hands in the surging crowd. The heavy crowds and the bustling noise made Qiao Xuan feel like she was back at the Spring Festival train station.
This was the first time she had felt this way since coming here.
“There are so many people!”
Shao Yunduan raised his eyebrows in surprise. Did he hear it wrong? Why did he feel that his wife's tone seemed a little happy and intoxicated?
Hmm, he must have heard it wrong!
He held Qiao Xuan's hand tightly and protected him by his side: "Follow me."
The lanterns are bright and beautiful, with various shapes that are ingeniously crafted. From time to time, there are some that are eye-catching, amazing, and make people linger.
Walking through the long and wide streets, we came to an extremely wide square square. Various giant lanterns were mainly built on the square, each as high as two or three meters. There were giant flower baskets, eight-sided revolving lanterns with different flowers and ladies' pictures printed on each side, Chang'e in the Moon Palace, Qilin, the auspicious beast, the prosperous lotus, the carp leaping over the Dragon Gate, the Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea, etc. The lights were bright, reflecting the colorful and dazzling lights, attracting countless people to stop to appreciate, point and laugh and comment.
All I need is a camera to take pictures!
