Different from the festive day on the second day of the Lunar New Year, he still wore the familiar black today, so that the red in his hand was particularly bright.

"Master Shen." Qiao Wenqing immediately raised his fists, and everyone followed Qiao Wenqing to greet Shen Qiuhe.

There was a smile on Shen Qiuhe's face, and he could still hold his fist in his hand, but his handwriting was facing outward, so everyone could see clearly, "Welcome an old friend into your dream, and your wish will come true."

It seemed to have a certain meaning, but no one could guess the deep meaning. Only the word "original intention" could be clearly seen.

Qiao Wenqing's eyes flashed slightly and his expression was unkind, but he was unable to ruin Shen Qiuhe's marriage.

He still remembered Chu Hanyin's words before leaving, but who knew that Juzi's case was so complicated and there might not be a conclusion for a while.

Qiao Wenqing also asked Mr. Gu why he was so anxious.

Mrs. Gu had no choice but to say that the old lady might not be able to wait any longer. What's more, the Qintian Supervisor personally decided that it was Shen Qiuhe who asked for it if it sounded good. Who knew if it was the palace's intention if it didn't sound good?

The imperial power is supreme and powerless.

So now, Qiao Wenqing suppressed his displeasure and said one more thing, "Master Shen, are you here to light the Kongming Lanterns too?"

Shen Qiuhe didn't seem to notice Qiao Wenqing's strange expression, he just smiled and nodded, "I always want to seek good luck."

Now that they had met, everyone walked outside together and looked at the rows of Kongming lanterns. It seemed that only Feng Zhaoping was really choosing.

"I'll help you." When Qiao Guxin lowered her head to tie him up, Shen Qiuhe suddenly walked over.

Tomorrow is the day of Dading, so it would not be considered rude for him to come closer.

Qiao Guxin glanced sideways at Shen Qiuhe, but had no intention of letting go. She tied it up neatly, but there was no word on it, which made Shen Qiuhe frown slightly.

"Wait a minute." When Qiao Guxin lit the fire, he was suddenly separated by Shen Qiuhe. Shen Qiuhe did not choose his own Kongming Lantern, but linked his wishes with Qiao Guxin's and reached out to light them. Fire, watching the Kongming Lantern rising high in the sky, it seems that this is what you want.

Qiao Guxin pursed her lips, ignored Shen Qiuhe, turned around and walked towards Qiao Wenqing.

"Does the County Lord think that I have a particularly good temper and has treated me so coldly over and over again?" Shen Qiuhe raised his voice to stop the person.

Qiao Guxin immediately turned around. At that moment, the Kongming lanterns slowly rising into the sky made Qiao Guxin's eyes clear and clear, but his words were not as beautiful as the scene. "But I am also curious, why did Mr. Shen's temper change?" You are so good, but you have been treated coldly by others many times, how can you still show up again and again?"

Can't you just stay away from me?

Seeing that Qiao Guxin seemed a little angry, Shen Qiuhe smiled and said, "I guess I really have a good temper."

"Master Shen." Qiao Wenqing let go of his Kong Ming Lantern. When he turned around, he saw that Shen Qiuhe was talking to Qiao Guxin alone, so he walked over without thinking.

Shen Qiuhe looked away and nodded at Qiao Wenqing, "When we are waiting to get married, I want to give a big red envelope to the brother who is holding the sedan chair. Does Mr. Qiao have anything in mind?"

With just one sentence, he choked back what Qiao Wenqing wanted to say.

Qiao Guxin turned around and glared at Shen Qiuhe, "Master Shen is so generous. Is Dali Temple making so much money now?"

"You can't say this nonsense." Shen Qiuhe waved his hands repeatedly, causing misunderstanding in the large audience.

Qiao Guxin snorted and led Qiao Wenqing forward.

Now that the two sides had met, Shen Qiuhe naturally joined them. However, due to Shen Qiuhe's participation, everyone did not talk as much as before.

The Lantern Festival Lantern Festival was bustling with hawkers from all walks of life showing their magical powers. However, there was a long queue for one hawker. Seeing that everyone was very curious, Shen Qiuhe asked Wang Si to go over and investigate.

It is said that the hawker in front of me is very skilled and can paint pictures with people's names on the lantern surface.

This is the first time I have encountered this, and the price is only two copper coins, so the stall is crowded.

"This is the first time I've seen someone who can paint with his name." Feng Zhaoping's eyes lit up instantly, and she felt that the capital was really a big place with all kinds of strange things.

Feng Zhaoan rubbed Feng Zhaoping's head, then looked up at Qiao Wenzhi, "You guys wait here, I'll queue up."

After a woman gets married, she takes her husband's surname. This is a rare opportunity for them to use their own name, so Feng Zhaoan was the first to step forward.

I could have asked the people below to line up, but I always felt that it was not sincere enough.

Looking at Feng Zhaoan's pious face, it seemed as if he was not buying a painting, but worshiping Buddha.

Seeing the smile on Qiao Guxin's face, Shen Qiuhe's mind changed and he followed him. Although he didn't say it explicitly, everyone knew that he must be asking for Qiao Guxin. He couldn't be a grown man who likes these bells and whistles. Something?

When Qiao Wenbing saw them queuing up, he quickly found a place with fewer people to rest.

Feng Zhaoping liked the excitement, so she followed Feng Zhaoan to queue up. Qiao Wenbing couldn't help but complain, "That girl is really good at shopping."

There was no time to rest all night.

Qiao Wenqing laughed from the side and said, "You are the only one who likes to pick a fight. If you ask your mother to find a house for you in the future and you are such a noisy daughter-in-law, I will punish you!"

Qiao Wenbing stood up in shock, "Bah, bah, bah, don't say such unlucky words during the Chinese New Year."

That is to say, he was worried about Feng Zhaoan, otherwise he would have to shut up Feng Zhaoping. He kept talking more than himself along the way, and his forehead felt hurt.

After a while, they saw that they were almost there, and everyone had almost rested, so they gathered around.

Qiao Wenqing thought that he could not even reach the level of this gentleman when he used his name to paint landscape paintings. Watching him draw like a god, a landscape painting appeared on the paper.

It was almost as if he was really hiding in the city. The moment he saw Qiao Wenqing, he thought that this was probably someone experiencing the smell of fireworks.

Feng Zhaoan was in front and asked Feng Zhaoping for help. When he said Qiao Wenzhi's name, his voice was very low and his face seemed a little unnatural.

However, everyone was attracted by Feng Zhaoping and did not pay attention to him.

Feng Zhaoping was there shouting that it looked good, and arguing that no one would be willing to use this lantern surface, and that it should be framed and hung on the wall. Every stroke of it was full of charm.

However, Qiao Wenzhi's paintings are much more restrained than Feng Zhaoping's, they are calm and elegant, and you will feel peaceful at a glance.

When they arrived at Shen Qiuhe, to everyone's expectation, Qiao Guxin's name was indeed spoken.

Waiting for Shen Qiuhe's painting to be finished, Qiao Wenzhi had already held her painting in her hands, and everyone was looking at Shen Qiuhe curiously.

Shen Qiuhe took the lantern noodles and walked towards Qiao Guxin step by step.

"I watched this gentleman paint, and he was worthy of the title "Everyone." Shen Qiuhe said and handed the lantern noodles to Qiao Guxin.

Small bridges, flowing water, boating on the lake, the beauty in the painting seems to have thousands of words to describe, but it is also scattered in the drifting water. Such an artistic conception is worthy of careful appreciation. It is indeed as Shen Qiuhe said, worthy of the word "everyone".

Qiao Guxin lowered her head and looked at the painting above, but did not reach out for a long time.

"The water has leaked, the water has leaked." Someone suddenly shouted not far away, and the crowd immediately became panicked.

However, the people below are quick to put out fires. This kind of fire happens almost every year. Officials are very busy during the Lantern Festival.

The crowd became restless, people were rushing back and forth, Qiao Guxin seemed to be squeezed, and fell to the side of Shen Qiuhe. Shen Qiuhe quickly supported Qiao Guxin, only to hear a tearing sound, it was the painting The sound of being pulled apart.

The fire quickly went down, and everyone who came and went calmed down. Qiao Gu stood firm and said, "Thank you, Mr. Shen." He gave her a hand just now.

Shen Qiuhe lowered his head and looked at the half that fell to the ground. It was stained with soil and could no longer be repaired. "You're welcome, County Master." Shen Qiuhe raised his head, but his hands slowly rolled up the remaining half. The lantern noodles were put away.

"I see it's getting late, let's go back to our homes each." Qiao Wenqing saw that Shen Qiuhe's expression was wrong, so he didn't say anything to him and only said something to Feng Zhaoan.

We’ve gone to all the places we should visit, and it’s really time to go.

After everyone nodded, Qiao Wenqing turned his head and glanced at Shen Qiuhe, "Master Shen, take your leave."

He crossed his fists and left without waiting for Shen Qiuhe to speak.

Qiao Guxin turned around immediately, and Shen Qiuhe looked at her and Feng Zhaoping without knowing what they were talking about, smiling brightly and happily.

"Master, what I saw just now is really that Miss Qiao tore it into pieces on purpose." Wang Si stood behind him the whole time, and he could clearly see Qiao's little tricks.

Shen Qiuhe laughed self-deprecatingly, "I know."

He held the half roll of lantern noodles in his hand, squeezed it tightly, and then threw it to the ground with a loud voice, "I want to see how long she can be hard?"

Looking at it, it seems that I have a plan in mind.

It's just that Wang Si pouted secretly in the background, and Shen Qiuhe always talks harshly. When it comes to doing things, isn't it Qiao Guxin who wins?

After being dumped several times, shouldn't Shen Qiuhe just move forward or move up?

No one mentioned anything about the Lantern Festival. Everyone except Feng Zhaoping knew it very well, but Feng Zhaoping's child couldn't possibly understand that Qiao Guxin tore the lantern noodles on purpose.

No matter how unhappy the Lantern Festival is, the 16th day of the first lunar month is inevitable. There was a lot of noise outside the courtyard, and the singers sang loudly, one after another, for quite a while.

Qiao Gu did not tell Mrs. Gu that the wedding under Shen Qiu's river had broken the rules. Suddenly, people from the Duke's Mansion came to pay homage, which frightened Mrs. Gu. There had never been such a wedding in the capital. A person with great gifts.

Madam Gu couldn't sit still, so she asked Madam Zhang to help take care of things during the banquet. She hurried to Qiao Guxin's yard.

On the sixteenth day of the first lunar month, everything went as planned. Qiao Guxin was tired from walking yesterday and had a good night's sleep. When she woke up this morning, she felt full of energy. The two of them played pitch pot in the yard.

"You have some time to relax." As soon as Mrs. Gu came in, she took off the armband for Qiao Guxin. It was so cold that half of her arms were exposed, so she was not afraid of freezing.

"It's not like I can't help outside." In Dading today, according to the rules, Qiao Guxin doesn't have to go out to greet people.

Mrs. Gu rolled her eyes at Qiao Guxin and pulled her into the house, "Try to see how your hands are frozen." After entering the house, Mrs. Gu immediately ordered Nianxiang to quickly get the stove to Qiao Guxin.

After Qiao Guxin calmed down, Mrs. Gu came closer to Qiao Guxin and said, "Tell the truth to mother, do you have a personal relationship with Mr. Shen?"

Normally, Ms. Gu would not ask this question, but now that her mother and daughter were in the room, she just said whatever she wanted.

According to the care of the prime minister, whether it is to invite the county lord or to grant a marriage in the palace, it has nothing to do with Shen Qiuhe. Before, it was thought that Shen Qiuhe valued the friendship between the older generation. After all, the marriage was decided by the elders of the two families. .

But the battle planned today frightened the Gu family.

A few years ago, girls from the Gu family were not even half as grand as this.

Not to mention others, when the Duke was still there, the prince's wedding did not have such standards, so Gu family had to think more.

Qiao Gu shook her head without even thinking about it. What kind of personal relationship did she have with Shen Qiuhe? Apart from occasionally meeting him to make fun of him, they had almost no other interactions.

"Mother, don't think too much. Maybe the people in the Duke's Mansion are simply mean." Qiao Guxin had no scruples about speaking in front of Gu.
