    Liu Yimian stomped her feet with a hot face, thinking that Ji Wei was joking about him, and said glumly: "Brother Ji is joking again, this wish-fulfilling bracelet is originally a pair, one for each person, how can I wear two per person."

    Liu Yimian took away the hand rope, pulled up Ji Wei's palm, and turned it over to face up. Untie the wish-fulfilling knot, adjust the length, and tie the hand rope to Ji Wei's wrist.

    "Look, the two together are called Ruyi knot."

    Liu Yimian joined Ji Wei's left wrist with the bracelet on.

    Although it is not as suitable as Liu Yimian, it can be worn on Ji Wei's hand, and it will not violate the peace at all.

    Ji Wei saw Liu Yimian's overjoyed appearance, and was also overjoyed by him, the idea of ​​awkwardness and disobedience in his heart vanished in an instant.

    "Well then, just wear it."

    "Let's go to the street to see the lanterns."

    The author has something to say: I'm sorry, my wrist hurts, the second update will be replaced tomorrow _(:з"∠)_

    Chapter 72

    The sky has not yet completely darkened, and there are only a lot more pedestrians on the road than before, but it is not crowded.

    The street vendors shouting on West Street have all changed their faces.

    The vegetable sellers are gone, replaced by mobile carts. The vendors hang signs and sell exquisite gadgets and food, attracting many passers-by to stop.

    Along the way, there are a lot of things for sale, including windmills, sugar figures, jewelry, sugar paintings, lanterns, etc., which are simply dizzying, and they are all small things that were not seen in the past.

    Compared with Changliu Town, Daxi Town will only be more lively on such days. It's a pity that after Liu Yimian was ten years old, he never had the chance to play in the street again. Every so often, he will be left to watch the house. If he sneaks out and is discovered, he will inevitably be beaten and starved for another day.

    The last time went back, when was ten years old, when there was a guest at home during the Lantern Festival, took Liu Piaoxu, youngest sister, who was under nine years old, and sneaked into the street.

    The colorful lanterns hung all over the street, like a five-color dream, as bright as day.

    Seeing each other with my own eyes now is like a lifetime away.

    "Lanterns! Mid-autumn lanterns! Only you can't think of it, there is no lantern you can't find!"

    The most intense business on this day is lanterns.

    Even if a row of lanterns of various colors hangs on the treetops, it cannot stop the hawkers from launching lanterns with different shapes and exquisiteness.

    Liu Yimian walked by, her eyes couldn't help lingering, sometimes amazed, sometimes obsessed.

    When he walked to the sixth vendor selling lanterns, Ji Wei pulled Liu Yimian to stop, pointed to one of the lanterns, and paid for it.

    "How many?"

    "It's only 30 cents, it's not expensive, look at this double-layered octagonal style with silk cloth pasted on top" Before the vendor's enthusiastic explanation could be finished, Ji Wei had already counted a handful of copper coins and wanted to hand them over.

    Liu Yimian tugged at Ji Wei's sleeve and whispered, "Why are you buying this?"

    Ji Wei smiled sullenly, but didn't answer.

    After handing the money to the peddler, he took the octagonal palace lantern and stuffed it into Liu Yimian's hand.

    "Your eyes were almost straight just now, how could I not see?"

    "No, I'm just curious..." Liu Yimian's face was hot for a while, and she didn't dare to look up at Ji Wei, and even the wooden handle of the lantern in her hand burned like a hot hand.

    "Thirty cents is expensive," he muttered.

    "It's not expensive. This double-layer palace lantern is made of colored silk cloth, and the candlelight inside is very beautiful." Ji Wei turned his head and looked at him, and scattered a thin ray of light from Liu Yimian's ear. Hair, pulled to the ear.

    Afraid of shocking him, he explained it.

    "The hair is falling."

    Liu Yimian hummed softly, and the two of them rubbed shoulders as they walked down the street.

    The night was dark, and the number of pedestrians on the road gradually increased.

    When the sky was completely dark, the two had reached the end of West Street.

    There is a mountain outside Changliu Town. There is a green willow river at the foot of the mountain. The river is clear and surrounded by willow trees, which meander through the three towns.

    On the Green Willow River, you can see a lot of lights, floating down from the upstream in the direction of the stream. When got closer, realized that they were all paper lanterns carried on tile-shaped driftwood.

    Candles go out, drifting with water.

    "Master, do you want to buy a water lantern?" Seeing the two of them stop here, the middle-aged man came over, raised the simple paper lantern in his hand, and smiled to please.

    Liu Yimian also raised the octagonal palace lantern in his hand and smiled at him: "We have it, no need."

    The middle-aged man shook his head, "Young master, I don't understand, that's a lantern, I'm a water lantern, the two are different."

    "It's all lights, what's the difference?"

    "Look at the lights floating on the water over there," the middle-aged man took a few steps toward the river, bent down and picked up a light that floated to the bank from the river, and compared it with the paper lantern in his hand, "Yes Doesn't it look alike?"

    Liu Yimian nodded.

    The middle-aged man put the lamp into the river again and sent it away.

    "The lantern in the little boy's hand is used to play with @, not the paper lantern. You write your wish on the paper and float away with the river. This lantern is a tradition, the two young masters don't know?" The middle-aged man looked They looked puzzled and smiled more enthusiastically, "Most of these paper lanterns floated down from Daxi Town."

    "There are many students in Daxi Town. Young masters who can read and write like to light lanterns by the river. I think the little son, Siwen, should be a scholar. Why don't you try it?" "Paper lanterns are much cheaper than flower lanterns. A lantern only costs ten cents. If the two young masters want it, eighteen cents will be fine."

    "Then two."

    Although Ji Wei kept silent, the middle-aged man could see that Ji Wei was the backbone. Seeing him speak, couldn't help but be overjoyed, and immediately waved to the companion behind him and asked him to bring two lamps.

    "This is a pen and paper. The two young masters can come here to write down their wishes. When the time comes, they will float away with the water, and the river god will bless the two of you to make your wishes come true."

    "Can this really be achieved?" Liu Yimian looked at the middle-aged man curiously with a pen in her hand.
