Chapter 295 Banquet, and banquet.
When the willow branches sprouted, the snow on the roadside completely melted, and the green grass appeared underneath - it was a festive day in the Valley City, and Bayin's wedding was held in the hall.
Witnessed by relatives and friends, the tall and handsome man and the innocent and beautiful girl swore an oath here, exchanged rings, and pledged their lifelong love.
Next to the newlyweds, Bud, who was dressed quite formally, led the applause with a kind smile.
Other relatives and friends in the audience as well as some residents who came to join in the fun also applauded and acted as the atmosphere controller.
Logically speaking, at a wedding ceremony, the newlyweds standing in the most eye-catching position should be the focus.
But standing on the other side of them was a guy who could not be ignored, and many people's eyes kept drifting towards him.
"Good, good, good. That's great."
Levi also clapped his hands and offered his blessings to them.
At the same time, I also fell into memories.
Thinking back to the first time I met this kid, he was only eleven or twelve years old. When he talked to me, he had to hold his head high, and his eyes were full of ignorance.
When the child called him uncle for the first time, he stretched out his hand and touched his head without having to lift his hand much.
Now he is no shorter than me, and I need to raise my hand high to pat his shoulder.
There was also more maturity and stability in those eyes, as well as a sense of confidence that everything could be achieved.
That's what growing up is.
After the ring exchange ceremony, Bayin took his wife hand in hand and walked among relatives, friends and tourists, and finally came to Bud and hugged him.
This marked the beginning of Bain's family life. He was officially independent and had his own family.
Bud's face was filled with relief, and his forehead was wrinkled with smiles.
After hugging Bad, Bayin and his wife walked towards Levi, and they both saluted him together.
Just when Bain showed a hesitant look, Levi took the initiative to open his arms and gave the young man a hug.
Bain was stunned for a moment, but he immediately reacted and smiled.
Yes, Uncle Levi has never been some arrogant person who is unapproachable.
Not to mention himself, even if any unknown resident suddenly wanted to hug him, he probably wouldn't refuse... as long as that person had no ulterior motives.
Hiss—hot!
Bain quietly raised his hand a little higher.
After the hug, Levi gently pushed Baine and his wife so that they could continue to move forward.
"Go ahead and live a good life."
Levi instructed: "Come back anytime, we are here."
Bain looked at him and nodded.
When the newcomers left, Levi raised his eyebrows and looked at their backs, suddenly realizing that Bain seemed a little uncomfortable.
Especially my hands seem to be a little red.
So he looked down at the dragon flame steel armor on his body.
Oh... I forgot to change my clothes, and I accidentally burned the child when I hugged him just now.
Well, just consider it as a test of his will.
Levi found excuses for himself.
As the evening breeze blew through the bustling and bright banquet hall, the grand and joyful wedding came to an end.
After staying in Riverdale for a while, Levi went to Lonely Mountain.
It has been a very difficult place and it has been rebuilt twice.
Walking around the brand new building and hall, Levi looked left and right and nodded.
"Very solid."
"Of course it's strong."
Thorin said helplessly, "We have deliberately changed the structure of some places. Next time, even if another dragon or Balrog comes, it will be difficult to escape by just charging."
"In addition, we have prepared a lot of weapons to deal with such huge enemies. Next time... if there is a next time, those who dare to invade here will have a taste of their own medicine."
Probably there won’t be a next time.
Levi answered silently in his heart.
Since the death of the Balrog, the dwarves have not felt anything unusual. With its head hung on the city wall, even if the cold dragons living in the northern wilderness suddenly had a brain storm and wanted to fly over to cause trouble, they would have to consider who is stronger between them and the Balrog.
If nothing unexpected happens, the dwarves will develop smoothly from now on, and at least they will no longer encounter enemies that are beyond their ability to deal with.
After a walk around Lonely Mountain, the brief visit and territory inspection came to an end.
Levi once again stepped into the Hell Gate and returned to Roadside Castle.
When the weather changes from warm to hot, and then from hot to cool and refreshing, people know that the autumn with both harvest and bleakness is approaching.
In mid-September, Levi rode his horse westward, heading straight for the Shire.
The destination is, of course, Bag End in Hobbiton.
Dangdangdang…
There was a knock on the door.
Crunch.
Bilbo opened the door and looked up.
"Oh-Levi!"
"haven't seen you for a long time!"
He hugged him excitedly, and Levi quickly changed into a different armor to prevent the elderly hobbit from getting burned.
"Long time no see, Bilbo."
Levi bowed slightly and hugged him.
"I feel relieved to see that you are still so energetic and full of life."
"I'm fine!" Bilbo, whose face already had some obvious wrinkles, answered affirmatively.
"Ha! I am now at the age when a hobbit is at his strongest."
"Well, stop standing at the door and come in. You've come just in time. I'm just about to have a wonderful afternoon tea."
Bilbo said this and turned back to the kitchen without saying anything else.
"At your service." Levi nodded slightly and stepped into the house.
When he said this, Bilbo paused noticeably.
Then a look of nostalgia appeared on his face.
"I haven't seen them for a long time."
As he cleaned up the food he had just bought in the kitchen, he said, "It has been nineteen years since I last saw Balin and Gandalf. I have been counting."
"They must be very busy, but speaking of this, I am actually planning to go visit them next year..."
"That's right."
When Levi was looking at the empty room he had lived in, Bilbo suddenly asked, "Why did you suddenly want to come here?"
Levi turned around and walked over to Bilbo.
"you guess."
He just looked at Bilbo.
Bilbo also looked at him with a sullen face.
The two of them just stared at each other for a long time without moving.
"puff."
“Hahahahahaha…”
The first one to lose control was Levi, he laughed.
"I never forget an old friend's birthday."
When Bilbo heard this, he relaxed and his face was full of surprise.
"Oh—I knew it."
As a guessing master certified by Gollum, Bilbo's mind is very sharp, but some things are no longer surprises when he says them out loud.
As always, Levi did not disappoint.
It was now September 21st, and Bilbo's birthday was tomorrow, September 22nd.
Levi slept in the empty house that Bilbo had kept for a night, and the next day he took out a lot of specialties brought from Dale and Lonely Mountain.
Blueberry pie, lemon cake, apple crisp, almond candy, cherry pie, cream crumbs, honey bread, large bone-in roasts and special sauces...
When Levi finally placed a big cake he had made himself in the middle of the table, the whole table was filled up.
"Oh my Bag End, how long will it take to eat this!"
Bilbo had one more happy trouble.
