After the pig-killing feast is over, the New Year will follow, and even the air is filled with joy. Lu Xiao got a lot of lanterns from nowhere, and hung them on the surrounding long streets. Coupled with the ice lamps specially carved by the craftsmen, it looks extraordinarily brilliant against the backdrop of the lanterns and candles.

Chang'an has been pregnant for more than eight months, and the midwife in charge of taking care of Chang'an persuaded her to take a few more steps for a smooth delivery in the future. Lu Xiao also knew that Chang An would be bored while pregnant, so he specially prepared these rare lanterns.

"We're very busy on weekdays, let's take advantage of our free time to go shopping." Lu Xiao put his arms around Chang An, and threw him to Xing Ying regardless of Mu An's strong objection. Although Xing Ying has a cold personality, he is extremely patient with children, and Mu An, who is noisy, is not at all impatient. After making a noise for a few minutes, Mu An was distracted by the colorful and peculiarly shaped lanterns, and slowly calmed down. Chang'an and Xing Ying looked at each other, and the meaning of entrustment in their eyes was obvious. Xing Ying nodded seriously and agreed, and looked at Mu An, Xiu Ming, and Xiu Yan in a blink of an eye, with deep pity and love hidden in his eyes

Seeing that Mu An wasn't crying anymore, Lu Xiao led Chang An to stroll slowly with peace of mind. Although it was just a momentary pleasure in fighting Chang'an, Lu Xiao also put in a lot of effort. Try to restore the atmosphere of the Lantern Festival in the town.

The cooks prepared candied haws and various snacks early on, and put them on the long street for anyone to use. All kinds of facial masks, sachets, rouge powder, gold and silver jewelry are also put out regardless. The members of the dart team participating in this lantern festival, the servants and the old relatives can choose whatever they like to take away, of course, they can only choose the same kind. Wei Xun is in charge of checking these, while Ling Jun is in charge of patrolling. Originally, Lu Jing was supposed to be in charge, but he was just newly married, who would have the nerve to let him do such an unsightly thing.

There are so many styles of lanterns, even Lu Xiao himself is a little dazzled. Chang An even stared at it intently while biting the rock sugar hawthorn he just got.

"Would you like to try using a ring..." Lu Xiao looked at Chang An's obsessed face, and gently patted him. Pointing to the extremely cute enamel dolls and all kinds of cute and delicate objects on the ground, Chang An couldn't help but his eyes lit up. When he was a child, he also liked these things very much, but his family background was not good and he often watched other people play. This was still when I was a child, and when I was older, I knew how to avoid suspicion, so I didn't watch any lanterns anymore.

Lu Xiao gave a look, and the servant who was in charge of watching the stall quickly presented twenty bamboo rings respectfully. Lu Xiao kept one for himself, and handed over the others to Chang'an. Holding the bamboo ring, Chang An couldn't help biting his lips and thinking about which one suits his heart better. Lu Xiao was not in a hurry and just looked at him quietly.

At this moment, Chang An's mind was completely attracted by small objects, and finally locked on a naive enamel ornament. The ornament is made up of a boy and a girl, with a jade-colored full moon inlaid between them. The boy was dressed in red, with a little cinnabar between his brows. The girl has pink cheeks and flushed cheeks, and she is also wearing a red dress.

Thinking that the child to be born would be as cute as this enamel doll, I resisted putting the bamboo rings one after another. Anyone who has played with rings knows that setting bamboo rings is a technical job. More people are throwing money in vain, otherwise how can small vendors make money. It's just that this time is different, Lu Xiao spent half of this lantern festival just to make his precious daughter-in-law happy. Now that this set of traps is so disappointing, he will naturally feel sorry for Chang'an's fatigue if he misses it for a long time.
