Chapter 560: Year after year
"Azhi, do you like me?" Gu Huaijin's voice was extremely gentle.
Princess Jingshu almost drowned in this tenderness.
At that moment, the noise around her seemed to disappear, and the people also disappeared. All she saw before her eyes was Gu Huaijin's handsome face, and his eyes were full of tenderness.
Her heart raced, joy spread, and she nodded.
Gu Huaijin kissed her on the forehead, as light as a dragonfly touching the water.
Wei Qing also took Tang Li's hand and left, almost half hugging her, into an alley. He put his hand on the back of her head, pressed it against the wall, and kissed her.
It was a long kiss, and Wei Qing let go reluctantly, his black eyes sparkling.
"Wife, let's continue shopping."
The two continued to stroll, weaving in and out of the crowd.
There was a covered bridge ahead, with many lanterns hanging on it and many people crowded there.
"That's... guessing riddles!" Tang Li said.
The Qiqiao Festival and the Shangyuan Festival are two major folk festivals in the Great Zhou Dynasty. Many of the activities of the Shangyuan Festival are also found in the Qiqiao Festival.
Tang Li's attention was quickly attracted by the rabbit lantern hanging in front of the covered bridge. The rabbit was made very delicately and looked lifelike.
"Like it?" Wei Qing leaned close to her ear and whispered.
Tangli nodded.
Wei Qing held her waist and walked towards the covered bridge.
Wei Qing wanted to buy the rabbit lantern, but the owner said it was a prize for guessing lantern riddles and refused to sell it to him no matter what.
Wei Qing had no choice but to give up.
Seeing that the covered bridge was crowded with people, he was worried about his wife's health and did not dare to squeeze in with her.
"Husband, forget it." Tang Li pulled his sleeve and said.
Wei Qing nodded: "Wife, are you tired? Take a break?"
Tangli replied "OK".
Wei Qing took Tang Li into a shop selling tea and pastries and asked for a private room. The window of the room was open, facing the bustling street market.
The two sat down, Wei Qing ordered tea and cakes, and then moved closer to Tang Li.
"Wife, I'm going to the bathroom." Wei Qing said.
Tangli nodded.
Wei Qing turned over and jumped out of the window directly, revealing his wanton side, which made Tang Li laugh.
Wei Qing waved at her, turned around and blended into the crowd.
Tangli waited with his chin propped up, eating pastries.
Her husband took over for a while and came back after a while. Tang Li's attention was quickly attracted by the rabbit lantern in his hand.
Wei Qing is tall, handsome, and has a somewhat cold expression. He is holding a rabbit lantern, which makes him look particularly cute in contrast.
The eyes of several young girls were attracted by him.
"Whose son is this? He's so handsome."
"Yeah, he's totally different from those limp scholars. Look at his arms, they must be very strong, he can probably lift someone up."
"Why don't you go and ask him whose son he is?"
"His face was so cold, I didn't dare."
The girls looked at him boldly and ostentatiously, talking about him and wanting to go up to him, but not daring to.
During this moment of hesitation, the man had already walked to the window of the shop.
The girls saw the coldness on his face disappear and become very gentle.
He was so cold just now, but now he is so gentle. This change made others stunned.
In the window, a pregnant woman stood up, stretched out her hand, and saw the rabbit lantern in his hand with a happy expression.
The pregnant woman was also incredibly beautiful, stunningly stunning. The two of them standing together were a perfect match.
The girls looked at him for a while, feeling a little disappointed at first. Such a handsome man already had a wife. Then they looked at the way they looked at each other, and saw how tender their expressions were. They must be very affectionate, and they couldn't help but feel envious.
Wei Qing climbed in through the window again, sat down next to Tang Li, and watched her fiddling with her rabbit ears.
"Do you like it?" Wei Qing asked.
Tang Li nodded: "Husband, did you win the lantern riddle?"
When she first met her husband, he was a rough man. Although he could read, he was not a genius. After two years of training, his writing became more decent and his handwriting became more beautiful. He was very impressive and no one could tell he was a rough man.
But Tangli didn't understand him. He didn't have as much knowledge as the scholars, so when he guessed the riddle and got the rabbit lantern, Tangli was really surprised.
Wei Qing shook his head.
"Then how did you get this rabbit lamp?" Tang Li became even more curious.
"I was just waiting there. I saw someone guess five riddles in a row and got a rabbit lantern, so I bought it from him." Wei Qing said.
Tangli was stunned for a moment, then suddenly laughed.
"Wife, are you laughing at me for being uneducated?" Wei Qing muttered.
He also wanted to be knowledgeable, but he was not good at studying. Like Sanbao, he got a headache when reading, so he learned some practical things.
Tangli kissed the corner of his lips: "I laugh at your cleverness."
No matter what, he just thought it was his wife praising him. Wei Qing's mouth curled up, and he was very happy.
Wei Qing saw Tang Li's tired face and said, "Wife, shall we go home?"
Tangli looked at the bustling street market and actually wanted to play for a while longer, but he was really tired...
Never mind, there’s still next year, and she still has to take care of the little one in her belly.
"Let's go back."
The two left the street and returned to the marquis's mansion.
When they were at the gate of the Marquis' Mansion, they happened to meet Du Ye walking in from outside holding Sanbao's hand.
Sanbao was wearing a beautiful red dress with a ponytail on her head. She looked cool and cute. When she saw the two of them, her eyes lit up.
She let go of Du Ye's hand and walked quickly to the two of them.
"Dad, Mom~"
Tangli pinched her little face and asked, "Did you go to the street to play?"
Sanbao nodded. She was actually still a little reluctant to leave, but her master pulled her back. The master said she was growing and couldn't stay up late. She was afraid of the master, so she had to come back obediently.
"Did you see anything interesting?" Tang Li continued to ask.
The little girl held Tangli's hand and talked about interesting things, her eyes fixed on the rabbit lantern her father was holding.
"I wanted a rabbit lantern, so I asked Master to guess the lantern riddles, but Master refused, saying it was childish..."
Sanbao glanced at Du Ye. Du Ye had his hands behind his back. There was no expression on his beautiful face, and he looked a little cold, as if he didn't hear them.
Sanbao stood on tiptoe, leaned close to Tangli's ear, and whispered, "Actually, I don't know how to do it. I'm so stupid."
Du Ye looked over.
Sanbao immediately shouted, "Master is so kind! He bought me a lot of delicious food."
The rabbit lantern was naturally given to Sanbao.
Back to the yard.
After Tang Li and Wei Qing simply washed up, they lay down on the bed.
Tangli was very happy tonight and couldn't sleep.
Wei Qing accompanied her and placed a kiss on her eyelashes.
"Haven't you had enough fun yet?" Wei Qing asked.
Tangli nodded.
"The capital is much more lively than the Qiqiao Festival in Qinghe County." Tang Li said.
"Wife, let's go next year during the Qiqiao Festival." Wei Qing said, holding her in his arms.
Wei Qing looked down at his wife's soft face, and his heart softened as well.
May it be like this every year.
