Chapter 385: Shangyuan Lantern Festival
Pei Zimo took Qingzhu's comb, put it close to his body, then looked at Qingzhu, and said seriously: "Because some people say that giving a comb means being entangled to old age and tying hair for a lifetime."

"Idiot Pei Zimo." Qingzhu laughed when he heard it, and said, "Don't you know that this is the meaning of a man giving a comb to a woman?"

"Ah, where is the woman sending the man?" Pei Zimo asked, looking at Qing Zhu after hearing the words.

"I don't know." Qingzhu shook her head: "Women usually give men handkerchiefs, sachets, insoles or shoes, don't they?"

"Oh, you don't know how to do those things anyway, so I'll take this as the meaning of a man giving a woman." Pei Zimo said, touching the place where the comb was placed on his chest.

"Pei Zimo, what are you talking about? If you have the ability, you can say it again." Qing Zhu said, looking at Pei Zimo with an unkind expression.

"I mean, no matter what you give, I will treat it as if you have promised to tangle with me forever." When Pei Zimo said this, he kept covering his chest where the comb was placed with his hand, and his face was special. serious.

During the three days of the second, third, and fourth days of junior high school, Pei Zimo and Qing Shan both left early and returned late.

On the fifth day of the lunar new year, only Pei Zimo went to the clan's family in Taipingfang.

Qingshan, together with Wang Zhong and Zhang Shun, brought new year gifts to the head of Tongrenfang and neighbors.

On the sixth day of the first lunar month, people from the neighbors also came to pay their respects, and it was still Qingshan who received him as the head of the family.

On the seventh day of the first lunar month, Qingzhu took Tian Xiaohua and Xue Hongmei to the Hongzhuang Camp together with Princess Anle who had just come out of the palace.

Because Qingzhu and the others don't have any relatives or old friends in Shangjing, so after the seventh day, the New Year's greetings and worship activities are almost over. Apart from worshiping ancestors and gods every day, the days are the same as before, and there is no more. What a difference.

On the fourteenth day of the first lunar month, the servants at the head of the family started to get busy again.

The Darui Chaoshangyuan (Yuanxiao) Lantern Festival lasts for three days, starting from the fourteenth day of the first lunar month and ending on the sixteenth day of the first lunar month.

Originally, Wang Zhong was going to buy lanterns, so he had to adapt to the scene, but Princess Anle sent palace lanterns ahead of time, Pei Zimo also got a lot, and Prince Ning, also specially sent two palace lanterns on horseback come over.

Qingzhu's house and Pei Zimo's house hung all the eaves in front of the porch, and there were still a lot of leftovers. Qingzhu simply asked Wang Zhong to give two to the neighbors in the same alley. The jealousy of going to other houses, on the contrary, a little more respect for them.

On the fourteenth night of the first lunar month, another banquet was given in the name of the emperor in the palace.

On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, Qingzhu, Qingshan, Pei Zimo, and Princess Anle finally got together again.After a group of people ate the Lantern Festival, they went to enjoy the lantern together.

After leaving Tongrenfang, after walking a few steps, we arrived at Zhuque Street.

This is the widest and longest street in Shangjing. The street is full of people. At first glance, it is really shoulder to shoulder, heel to heel.

Along the way, all the shops were decorated with lanterns and festoons, and many famous shops and businesses had decorated buildings, hung colored lanterns, and posted lantern riddles.There are also stages one after another, performing various juggling tricks one after another, and from time to time, bursts of applause burst out from the crowd.

There are also quite a few food stalls, which are placed next to the stage and the color building. Because these days, the emphasis is on harmony, so the big merchants did not drive away the small vendors.

There are too many people at this time, and Niu Lian'er is small and short, so if it gets crowded, it will be hard to find if it is lost.

So, Niu Dali simply squatted down and carried Niu Lian'er on his back. What she wanted to see, Niu Dali squeezed over to watch with her behind his back.

Speaking of which, Niu Dali is really worthy of his name, he has a lot of strength in his body, especially after following Qingshan, he eats and drinks enough every day, and can keep up with his nutrition, so his strength has increased a lot.In addition, Liu Zhiqi looked at him pleasingly, so he gave him some pointers.Therefore, in terms of physical fitness alone, Niu Dali is now quite different from the past.

Even though Niu Lian'er was a lot heavier than before, Niu Dali carried her on his back, but it was so much easier than before.

Now that Niu Lian'er has solved it, the others don't have to worry about it.

Princess Anle greeted Qingshan and walked in the front, where there were many people, she would squeeze there.

Although Tian Xiaohua and Xue Hongmei were both women, they had stayed in the Red Makeup Camp for a period of time after all, and they had a bit of skill in their hands, so they didn't have to worry about meeting anyone who didn't have eyesight.

What's more, at this lantern festival, there are many guards sent by the magistrates of Wannian and Changping counties. Once they find someone doing evil by using the lantern festival, they will be arrested immediately and put on heavy shackles.

So, as soon as the two of them arrived at Suzaku Street, they separated from Qingzhu and the others with great winking, and went shopping by themselves.

Princess Anle brought her personal guards, but her personal guards naturally wanted to follow her all the way.

But after a while, only Pei Zimo was left beside Qing Zhu.

"Have we been rejected?" Qingzhu looked around, except for Pei Zimo, there were no people he knew, looked at Pei Zimo, and said helplessly.

"Some people may dislike me, but none of them will dislike you. They just have good eyesight and don't want to disturb us." Pei Zimo said with a smile, while holding Qingzhu's hand, interlocking her fingers.

"So, you didn't bring any of your personal guards, and let them go shopping on their own?" Qing Zhu glanced at Pei Zimo and said with a chuckle.

"Of course, I don't want them to disturb us." Pei Zimo smiled complacently, then looked at Qingzhu and said, "Let's go, let's take a stroll."

"En." Qing Zhu nodded, and together with Pei Zimo, stepped into the crowd of Zhuque Street, followed the crowd, walked forward slowly, talking to Pei Zimo while looking at the lamp.

There is a saying that the masters are among the people, although the palace lanterns sent by Princess Anle and the others are grand and elegant, rich and graceful, but in terms of ingenuity, we must count the lanterns hung by the people.

Looking at it, even the green bamboos were fascinated, and some lingered in front of the colorful buildings.

Walking and walking, I came to a colorful building with the words "Qianjintang" hanging on it. After Qingzhu watched for a while, his eyes lit up, and he was a little eager to try.

Qingzhu has heard of the reputation of Qianjintang, it is the largest pharmacy in Shangjing.

Qianjintang has a blind Huisheng pill, which claims that one pill can save a life.A small box, but only a few dozen pieces, would cost a thousand taels of silver, and only the truly rich and powerful could use it.

And this kind of medicine, Qianjintang only sells ten boxes a month.Converted into gold according to the market price in the Taiping era, the value of ten boxes of Huisheng Pills is exactly a thousand taels of gold, and the name Qianjintang comes from this.

Of course, what made Qingzhu eager to try was not Qianjintang's fame, but the lantern riddles hung by Qianjintang.According to the steward guarding the colored building, the answers to these lantern riddles are all the names of medicinal materials.

"What? Do you want to try?" Pei Zimo looked at Qingzhu and asked.

"En." Qingzhu nodded heavily.

Pei Zimo looked at Qingzhu with a smile, and said encouragingly: "Then try it."
