After the house was built, Cheng Yan went to the town to prepare everything he needed. On the day of the Lantern Festival, the Lin family had a lot of things to prepare, and Cheng Yan went there early in the morning to help.
The dried fruits were dried early in the morning. Lin's mother and sister-in-law had bought transparent gauze of several colors and cut and sewed them into simple small cloth bags, and put the dried fruits into them after they were dried.
Father Lin and Cheng Yan moved the jars out of the warehouse, while Lin Cheng went to the town and rented a carriage from Zuiyunlou. However, he happened to meet Yan Ningxi there, so Lin Cheng discussed some things with him.
The Lantern Festival officially started at night, so they had to transport the items to the town in advance. Before that, Lin Cheng wanted to borrow a place from Yan Ningxi to put the items. Finally, Yan Ningxi asked Lin Cheng to put the items in the backyard of Zuiyun Tower, and they could enter through the back door.
By the afternoon, everything was ready and packed and put in the carriage. After doing all this, the Lin family could finally breathe a sigh of relief. Lin Mo lay on the table, letting Lin Xiaoya run around beside him, not wanting to move at all.
“Fourth Uncle, are we going to watch the lanterns tonight?” Lin Xiaoya tugged at Lin Mo’s clothes, looked up at him and asked.
"Yes..." Lin Mo said weakly.
"Can Xiaoya go too?" Lin Xiaoya continued to ask.
"Um……"
"Okay." After getting the answer, Lin Xiaoya ran away again.
After Lin's mother and sister-in-law finished cooking, Lin Cheng also came back in the carriage. After dinner, everyone went back to the house to change clothes. After all, it was the annual Lantern Festival, so they had to dress nicely, even though they were going to set up a stall.
Mother Lin brought the new clothes she had made early in the morning to Lin Mo's room and said, "Mom made a new dress for you. Try it on."
Lin Mo saw his mother shake out the clothes. The fabric was very good and the color was light blue. His mother had embroidered some bamboos on the collar and cuffs, but Lin Mo still felt a little headache.
"Mom, it's just the Lantern Festival, there's no need to dress so much, right? Besides, I'm staying at the stall, so it's useless to dress like this."
Lin Mo knew that the Lantern Festival was also called the Marriage Festival, but he and Cheng Yan were already at the stage of discussing marriage, so he didn't need to choose a partner.
"Your father, your eldest brother and I will be watching over the stall. You and Cheng Yan can just take Xiao Ya and the others to play."
"but……"
"Listen to me and change quickly... I know you don't like headwear, so I made you a headband. Remember to put it on." Mother Lin put the clothes in his hands and left.
Lin Mo held the clothes in both hands, looked at Lin's mother leaving, then looked down at the clothes in his hands, sighed, and finally put them on.
After Lin Mo changed, he felt something was wrong. He looked in the bronze mirror and found that the color was too bright, which was completely different from the gray clothes he usually wore.
Men and women have different hairstyles, and can wear gold and silver jewelry on their heads and put rouge and powder on their faces. Lin Mo tied his hair into a simple ponytail as usual, but the headband was the same color as the clothes he was wearing.
After finishing, Lin Mo went out. After he went out, he found that it was not that Lin's mother was exaggerating. Instead, everyone changed into new clothes. Even if they were not new, they were clothes that had not been worn many times.
Lin Xiaoya was fiddling with the bell ring on her hand. When she heard the door open, she looked up. Seeing Lin Mo coming out, her eyes widened, "Wow, Fourth Uncle is so handsome!"
Lin Xing, who had been looking down to admire his new clothes, heard it, looked up, and immediately ran over and walked around Lin Mo, "I almost didn't recognize Fourth Brother. I think the clothes are so nice, but Fourth Brother is better looking!"
"I told you that Mo Ge will look great in it." Mother Lin said with a smile.
"Brother Mo has a good foundation, but he doesn't like to dress up, and the clothes he wears are a bit dark." Mrs. Lin, who was helping her son sort out his clothes, looked up and said.
Lin Cheng nodded without saying anything. What his wife said was indeed true. In his previous life, when Lin Xiu was in high school, after his family moved to the capital, many people came to their house to propose marriage. Although his family later made it clear that Brother Mo did not intend to get married, the number of people who came did not decrease.
"Fourth Uncle, does Xiaoya look pretty?" Lin Xiaoya walked up to Lin Mo, opened her little hands, turned around, looked up and asked expectantly.
"Yeah, very cute." Lin Mo nodded.
Lin Xiaoya was indeed very cute. She was wearing a pink dress and a pair of bell rings on her hands. When she walked, the bells would ring from time to time. She had two small balls on her head and a pink hairband tied into a bow.
After Lin Xiaonan waited for his mother to help him, he ran to stand in front of Lin Mo, then looked up at him expectantly without saying a word.
"Xiao Nan is also very cute." Lin Mo bent down and touched his head, smiling.
"Yeah!" Lin Xiaonan's eyes lit up and he nodded heavily in response after hearing his fourth uncle's praise.
"Fourth brother, fourth brother, what about me? What do you think of me?" Lin Xing also opened his arms and turned around, saying with anticipation.
"Well, you are cute too." Lin Mo Ren smiled.
"Huh? Why are mine cute too? Cute is only used by children, right?"
"It means that you are as childish as a kid." Lin Chen, who was standing aside, saw his brother acting stupid again and couldn't help but add insult to injury.
When Cheng Yan arrived, the others were ready, so everyone went out and took a carriage to the town. Lin Mo walked behind them, and Cheng Yan walked beside him a step slower.
Cheng Yan glanced at Lin Mo from time to time, and when he reacted, he looked forward and didn't look at him. He always felt that Lin Mo was much more beautiful now than usual. Cheng Yan made up his mind to buy him more new clothes in the future, but it would be better if he only wore them for him to see.
When they arrived in the town, it was already getting dark, and some people had already put their goods out to sell. But there weren't too many people on the street yet, so it wasn't too crowded.
They came to the backyard from the back door of Zuiyun Building and moved the things they had put in the car. Except for Lin Mo, Lin Xing and the two children who stayed here temporarily, everyone else went to take up space to put their things.
Lin Chen was not very interested in shopping, so he followed along. Lin Cheng knew how to sell faster and better, so Lin Mo was not worried about it.
"Wait here for a while, I'll be back soon." Cheng Yan turned around and looked at Lin Mo and said.
"Yeah." Lin Mo nodded.
When Cheng Yan came back, it was already completely dark. The Zuiyun Tower was now brightly lit, and the light and shadows from the building were cast on the trees and walls nearby.
Because he was worried that there would be too many people at night and the children might get bumped when walking on the ground, Cheng Yan picked up Lin Xiaonan and Lin Xiaoya, one in each hand.
"Ah! Hold it up high! Hey? There are bright lights outside!" Lin Xiaoya put one hand on Cheng Yan's shoulder and pointed outside the wall with the other.
"There are so many people." Obviously Lin Xiaonan also saw it.
"Let's go, where do we want to go?" Cheng Yan looked at Lin Mo and asked.
"It's all right. They're not heavy, right?" Lin Mo asked.
"It's okay." Cheng Yan shook his head. Cheng Yan often went hunting, and he could carry back any big game in the mountains without any change in his expression. Besides, he could hold these two children without any hesitation.
After going out, Lin Mo felt the atmosphere of the Lantern Festival. The whole street was full of small lanterns of different colors, and the doors of the shops on both sides were open, with two large red lanterns hanging on both sides of the doors, lighting up the street.
The red glow of the lanterns illuminates the surroundings, and the warm light makes the festive atmosphere even more ambiguous.
Lin Mo walked next to Cheng Yan, while Lin Xing held his fourth brother's sleeve with one hand and looked around.
Now it was completely dark, and the number of people on the street gradually increased. Most of the people walking on the street were guys walking together, or two or three young men walking on the side, but most of their attention was on the young guys.
Regardless of whether they are boys or men, each of them holds a flower in their hands, which is the gift exchanged between the two after expressing their feelings to each other.
However, the flowers in the hands of the boy and the man were of different types. After they exchanged them, others could see that they had found their loved ones and naturally would not come forward to disturb them.
"Fourth brother, do you and Brother Cheng want to buy flowers and give them to each other? Otherwise, I feel like more people will come to disturb us." Lin Xing couldn't help but say after seeing Lin Mo and Cheng Yan each reject the man and boy who came forward to give them flowers for the third time.
"Then... let's go buy it." Lin Mo turned his head to look at Cheng Yan, and when he saw that he was also looking at him, he nodded and said.
Lin Mo thought it was troublesome to hold the flowers in his hand before, so he didn't buy them. But now he encountered a more troublesome thing, and suddenly he felt that holding the flowers in his hand didn't seem to be a big deal.
However, Lin Mo still felt a little strange. Even though Cheng Yan was holding two children in his arms, there were still many guys coming over. He was clearly walking right next to Cheng Yan, but there were still men coming over. So, is this also an era where looks matter?
Sure enough, after buying the flowers and giving them to each other, the boy and the man who were about to come forward gave up.
Lin Mo couldn't help but turn his head to look at Cheng Yan who was walking beside him. From this angle, he could see his profile. The warm light of the lantern shone on his face, which had sharp lines and a good-looking profile.
People like Cheng Yan are considered tough guys in modern times, almost the same type of person as his older brother in his previous life.
"What's wrong?" Cheng Yan knew that Lin Mo had been looking at him, but in the end he couldn't help but turn his head to look at him and asked.
"There are many guys who like you." Lin Mo said. There are many guys in Daling Village who like Cheng Yan. Now it seems that Cheng Yan is indeed very popular.
"Hmm?" Cheng Yan looked puzzled.
"I heard that it's normal for a man to have three wives and four concubines." Lin Mo looked at him and continued.
"I won't. You will be the only one in my life." Cheng Yan understood what he meant and quickly expressed his opinion.
After Cheng Yan knew that he liked Lin Mo, he never thought about marrying anyone other than Lin Mo, nor did he think about taking a concubine.
Perhaps there was no example of taking concubines in Daling Village, and Cheng Yan could be sure that he had never liked anyone except Lin Mo. Even if he could not remember his previous memories, he could be sure of it.
Lin Mo looked at him steadily for a few seconds, and finally curved his eyebrows slightly, "Since you said so, then I believe you."
Moreover, Lin Mo also believed in his own vision.
