Chapter 120 Lantern Festival

"By the way, we'll finish our meal later, why don't we play mahjong! I haven't played for a long time, and my hands are a little itchy. It happens that there are rare people here today, so let's have a good game." Afterwards, Liang Yifeng became more interested, and suggested excitedly.

"Okay, that's a good idea. I'm usually busy at the company, so I haven't found an opportunity. No matter what I say today, I have to fight hard." Hearing Liang Yifeng's proposal, Su Huizhen immediately responded with the same high spirits.

The two men at the table whose faces were flushed from drinking, faced with their wives' high interest, naturally would not go against it at this time, and quickly nodded in agreement with the suggestion.

After everyone reached an agreement, Liang Yifeng set his sights on Gu Xiran and Lin Yixin.

After staring at the two for a while, he asked with a smile: "We are playing mahjong at home, do you two young people have any activities?"

"Events? There aren't any events! Why don't I be by the side, watch you play cards, and watch this year's Spring Festival Gala by the way." Gu Xiran was stunned for a while, and after swallowing the food in his mouth, he said tentatively.

"Didn't everyone say that watching the Spring Festival Gala is outdated now? We seniors don't plan to watch it, you young people still plan to watch it!" Liang Yifeng immediately frowned after hearing what Gu Xiran said, disapproving.

"There's nothing interesting about the Spring Festival Gala, and there's nothing interesting about us playing cards. You two young people, you should go out and find some activities." Su Huizhen had already reached a consensus with Liang Yifeng when she was cooking in the kitchen.He intends to create opportunities for Gu Xiran and Lin Yixin so that they can be alone.So at this time, they cooperated tacitly.

"But... I really don't have any activities at night!" Gu Xiran looked at his mother in embarrassment, and said helplessly.

Ever since she transmigrated into this world and became Gu Xiran, she cut off contact with Gu Xiran's previous group of cronies and friends, and devoted herself to studying.Then she was admitted to Parsons School of Design, and she went to the United States.

So in this city, apart from her family, Gu Xiran really doesn't have any friends, so naturally no one will ask her out to get together.

"Xiran doesn't do activities at night, don't tell me you don't do activities at night, son?" Liang Yifeng saw Gu Xiran's embarrassment, so he put his wishful thinking on his son.

As long as Lin Yixin said that there was an event tonight, she was ready to let Lin Yixin take Gu Xiran out to participate.

"I still have some documents to read. I plan to read the documents to watch the New Year's Eve at night. I really don't have any activities." Lin Yixin was a little drunk, completely unaware that his mother was creating opportunities for himself, and honestly answered what he was going to do later .

"One or two of you are like this, you don't look like a young man at all. If I were your age, I would not be able to stay at home, and I would definitely invite a lot of friends to hang out." Facing his son's answer, Liang Yifeng really There is a feeling of hating iron but not steel.

"That's right, young people should look like young people. Later, you two, don't stay at home, let us go out for a walk. Don't be at home and disturb our card game." Su Huizhen also felt very helpless about this, only Can directly speak out to force two people to go out.

"Mom, I'm just sitting in the living room watching TV, how could I disturb you playing cards!" By this time, Gu Xiran hadn't realized what her mother and Liang Yifeng meant, so she was really a little silly.

But thinking about what happened in the afternoon, Gu Xiran still didn't want to be alone with Lin Yixin.So he continued to pretend to be stupid, planning to stay at home like this and not go out.

"That's not sure, I think you should go out." Liang Yifeng immediately denied Gu Xiran's words, and turned around and began to explain to his son: "After dinner later, you can take Xiran out for a stroll. If there are really no activities, then go to the Lantern Festival. I heard that this year’s Lantern Festival is very special, with a lot of things to play and eat. Just the two of you can go and have fun. Wait until When we came back, we were almost done."

"It's a good idea to go to the Lantern Festival, so let's make a decision!" Su Huizhen nodded in agreement, and the two of them arranged the place for Gu Xiran and Lin Yixin's meeting.After that, he didn't leave any chance for Gu Xiran to refuse.

After the last meal, Gu Xiran had no choice but to go out with Lin Yixin helplessly.

It may be that they are worried that after the two of them go out, they will not travel together.So Liang Yifeng insisted on asking the driver to take the two of them to the city center on the grounds that Lin Yixin had been drinking.

After arriving in the city center, the driver even conveyed Liang Yifeng's explanation before leaving.They will not be picked up at this location until after twelve o'clock.

So watching the car leave, the two looked at each other speechlessly.

"Since we've all come here, let's go to the Lantern Festival. I seem to have come here with my parents when I was young, and I don't have much memory now." After a little wind, Lin Yixin's wine was almost sober .After standing here for a while, he suggested.

"Well, let's take a stroll together when we're here." Gu Xiran nodded indifferently, agreed to Lin Yixin's suggestion, and then the two of them walked towards the direction of the Lantern Festival.

Probably because of what happened in the afternoon, the two of them were still in a slightly awkward atmosphere, so they just walked quietly along the way, and no one spoke.

It wasn't until a gust of north wind blew that Gu Xiran tightened his coat in the cold and buried his face in the scarf, did Lin Yixin break this tacit understanding.

"Is it cold? Why don't you put on my coat!" Lin Yixin felt very distressed when he saw Gu Xiran huddled into a ball.Immediately took off his coat, and covered Gu Xiran's body.

"Give me the clothes, what do you do?" Feeling the warmth from Lin Yi's new coat, Gu Xiran immediately stopped feeling cold.But thinking of the cold weather at this moment, Lin Yixin was walking outside in only a sweater, and his body would definitely not be able to bear it.So she planned to take it off and return it to Lin Yixin.

"It's okay, I don't feel cold. When I was in the United States, I went winter swimming with my classmates. The biting cold when entering the water is the real cold. Now this kind of thing is trivial to me." Stopped Gu Xiran Taking off his coat, Lin Yixin said with a relaxed look.

"If you really feel cold, don't hold on." Unable to resist Lin Yixin's persistence, Gu Xiran could only continue to wear Lin Yixin's coat.

In the middle of the conversation between the two, the Lantern Festival soon appeared in front of the two of them.

At this moment, there is already a sea of ​​people here, and not only all kinds of cars are parked at the entrance, but all the roads are blocked.Even the road where the Lantern Festival came into the venue was occupied by crowds.

Such a lively and noisy scene, coupled with the very festively decorated venue, immediately conveyed a strong sense of the New Year.

The joyful smiles on people's faces spread to everyone's face, as if they were contagious.

"It seems that it's a good decision to go here during the Chinese New Year." Seeing all kinds of antique lanterns hanging above his head, Gu Xiran showed a joyful smile on his face.Immediately took out his mobile phone and took pictures of some beautiful and special lanterns.

"Yeah, compared to watching the Spring Festival Gala at home, it's really nice to come here for a stroll." Seeing that Gu Xiran was taking pictures, worried that she would be squeezed by the crowd, Lin Yixin immediately blocked Gu Xiran with his body.

"During the last student design exhibition, the inspiration for the series I exhibited came from paper-cut window grilles. In fact, I think Huaxia, besides those things, has many traditional things that are worth continuing to pass on. Like The lanterns on it are the same, they are of various kinds, and they are no worse than foreign ones at all." Gu Xiran pointed to the lanterns above his head, talking to Lin Yixin excitedly.

At this time, a booth of sugar blowers on the side of the road appeared in front of Gu Xiran.

Immediately, like a child, she pulled Lin Yixin and rushed towards the booth.

"Do you want to eat this?" Lin Yixin asked, pointing to the sugar figurine on the booth as a sample.

"Well, I want to eat." Gu Xiran nodded, looking at Lin Yixin with sparkling eyes.

"Then what do you want, I'll buy it for me." Lin Yixin immediately took out his wallet and asked Gu Xiran to choose whatever he wanted.

"Every one is very beautiful, I really can't pick it out. How about... let's turn this one!" Looking back and forth among the samples, Gu Xiran really didn't know what to choose.Finally, after seeing the turntable next to it, I decided to give the choice to the turntable.

"Well, let's compare to see who has better luck. The loser will cover all the expenses for today." Lin Yixin saw that Gu Xiran chose the turntable, and his playfulness was immediately hooked.

"Bijibi, my luck must be better than yours." Looking at the sugar figurines that might appear on the turntable, Gu Xiran finally set his sights on the big prize dragon.So he patted his chest confidently, and vigorously turned the pointer on the turntable.Then the whole person stared at the rotating pointer tightly, and shouted loudly: "Dragon, it must be a dragon, hurry up and get out of the dragon."

After turning about a dozen times under the gaze of the two, the pointer slowly stopped, and finally stopped on the parrot with the same complicated pattern.

Although he didn't get a dragon, he did get a parrot. Gu Xiran was also very satisfied with the result.Immediately in front of Lin Yixin, he began to chatter.

"It's just a parrot, watch me pull out the dragon!" Lin Yixin looked at the freshly baked candy parrot in Gu Xiran's hand with disdain, and then started to turn the pointer of the turntable.

"Hmph, be careful that the cowhide is broken, not to mention that the dragon can't be drawn out, even the parrot can't be drawn out...!" Gu Xiran naturally felt very dissatisfied with Lin Yixin's disdain.While the pointer was turning, he kept whispering beside him.But when she saw where the pointer finally stopped, she was dumbfounded.

It really means that what is drawn out, what comes out!
