Madam, She Has a Tender Heart - Chapter 472
Chapter 472: Let’s start together
They all said that they would rather follow his mother who is a beggar than his father who is an official. Dabao knew that his mother was worried about him.
It’s not that Mom doesn’t trust Dad, it’s just that there are too many people around Dad, and too many people live their lives pointing to Dad.
Mother is just worried about him.
Now that dad knows, he can’t cause any rift between dad and mom because of his affairs, then he is a sinner.
Lu Bocheng helped him up and sighed: “Dad doesn’t blame your mother, nor does he blame you. Your mother’s approach is right. There are too many people around dad. If dad drinks too much or talks in his sleep, you will be killed.” If you tell me about your life experience, it will put you in a dangerous situation.”
At this moment, Lu Bocheng suddenly thought about it. Why is he competing with himself like this?
Don’t you love him enough?
Lu Bocheng and Dabao talked in the room for a long time, talking about their family, the current situation in the world, and what Dabao can and cannot do now and in the future.
The father and son were honest with each other and talked for a long time. They solved Dabao’s knot and also solved Lu Bocheng’s knot.
“Dad, I don’t want to change the current situation. I just want to be your son, your biological son forever.”
Lu Bocheng patted Dabao on the shoulder: “You don’t have to think about what stupid things you said, you just did it.” He wiped his son’s tears, turned around and left his son’s yard.
Dabao followed his father and sent him out of the courtyard. When his father could no longer be seen, the corners of his mouth curled up. He is his father’s son and always will be.
This Chinese New Year is the first Chinese New Year that Dabao, Xiaobao, his father, mother, and sister have celebrated together.
The two brothers were so excited that they began to prepare for the New Year after Laba.
I followed my mother to the streets to prepare New Year gifts and goods, followed my father to socialize, and then I picked up my sister and the whole family went shopping together, watching plays, listening to books, and performing sideshows.
The three brothers and sisters have their mother on the left and their father on the right, which makes them happy.
Early in the morning, wax flowers were harvested in the mountains, so Father Su and Mother Su sent them several large carts of semi-finished candles.
After Su Qingyu received the goods, she, Lu Bocheng and several children made molds for various candles, and then boiled the candles together to make various candle products.
Lu Bocheng had only heard that the lady planted ash trees in the mountains, harvested the wax flowers, and boiled them into candles, which she could sell for a lot of money every year.
I heard that ash trees are now being planted all over the mountains. After years of development, the mountain people in Lianzhai can make a lot of money just selling wax flowers every year.
Every household was eager to build a statue of Su Qingyu and offer it to her.
How dare you think about it. In the past, people were so poor in the mountains that they could no longer survive without land or houses, so they hid in the mountains as a last resort. There were houses and fields outside, so who would want to hide in the mountains?
I didn’t expect that I can’t even enter the mountains now.
The mountains are full of treasures, and anything can be sold for money, so why would anyone want to let others settle in the mountains?
The gates of each village are getting thicker and thicker over the years, and the number of guards has also increased a lot. The strength of the guards is not what it was a few years ago.
Su’s father and Su’s mother collected wax flowers from the mountains, boiled them into semi-finished products, and sent them to Xuzhou for their children.
Dabao and Xiaobao took Xiaoqi to find a carpenter to make various molds. They boiled wax oil themselves and poured it into the molds to make various candle shapes.
Three brothers and sisters, they never get tired of it every day.
Lu Bocheng watched the children happily, and heard his wife and two sons talking in front of his daughter about how lively the Lantern Festival in the mountains was, which made her jump to her feet and ask why her mother didn’t take her to see it.
It made Su Qingyu dumbfounded.
Lu Bocheng did not want his daughter to be disappointed, so he asked Xuzhou Yamen to post a notice that Xuzhou City would hold a Lantern Festival this year.
Xuzhou has not been short of money in recent years, so it can be lively wherever it goes.
It’s the New Year’s Day, and the Jiedushi Master suddenly arrived. All the officials of the yamen, big and small, who were planning to close the book, were so busy that they hit the back of the head with their feet.
People in Xuzhou crowded to the notice wall to read the notice. What about the Lantern Festival on New Year’s Day? Are they going to hold a Lantern Festival in Xuzhou? Garden tour? Look at the lights? Guess lantern riddles? The Lantern Festival on New Year’s Day must be very lively.
The people of Xuzhou were all excited. Not only are children running on the streets every day waiting to see what the Yamen will do, but even adults are looking at them three times a day, expecting lampposts and ropes to be hung on the streets and activity venues to be secluded.
The merchants in Xuzhou City were reconciling and sealing their accounts, and were preparing to close their doors for the holiday. Who would have thought that their Jiedushi Master would just show up like this? Well, don’t close your doors now, just keep them open.
Years ago, one day was equivalent to one month in business.
Whoever doesn’t open the door is a fool.
Early on the morning of Yuan’s Day, Dabao, Xiaobao and Xiaoqi all dressed up and went to their parents’ house to pay New Year’s greetings to them. After receiving the New Year’s money, they happily gathered in front of their parents to exchange New Year’s blessings.
Qingyang also brought Yi Teng to pay Su Qingyu and Lu Bocheng New Year greetings. I also got lucky money.
After the servants in the mansion had paid New Year’s greetings to the lord, wife and young masters, Su Qingyu took several children to Lu’s house to pay New Year’s greetings to Lu Shengcai and others.
At Luzhai, the family had the first meal of the New Year together.
After returning to the house to rest for a long time, the children could no longer hold themselves back. They urged the kitchen to make dinner early. After taking a few bites each, they put down their chopsticks and ran out of the house.
Dabao, Xiaobao, Xiaoqi, Ma Zheng, Ma Yan, Qingyang Yiteng and others all ran into the street in a hurry.
“These children are not waiting for us.” Lu Bocheng complained. He pulled Su Qingyu to follow him.
“Don’t you always think that the children are noisy? You have always said that you two want to be quiet for a while, but now that the children are not in front of you, you are complaining again.” Su Qingyu gave him a sideways look.
“Yes, you’re right, Madam is right. The children have left just in time. As for me, I just happen to be with Madam in peace and quiet. It’s up to you to accompany Madam to look at the lights.” Su Qingyu smiled and let him hold her hand. The gate of the mansion.
The night has not yet completely closed, and the streets are already filled with bright lights and numerous silhouettes of people.
Su Qingyu was a little worried about the children: “I don’t know if Dabao and Xiaobao can take care of Xiao Qi? The boys are probably going to play crazy today and insist on holding Xiao Qi.”
“Look at you, you said you would watch the lights with me, but you still have to worry about a few children. If Xiaobao escapes, he may forget his sister, but Dabao will not. And there is a guard woman following them. Following them in the dark There are quite a few of them. Don’t worry.”
“There are also places in the dark?”
Lu Bocheng nodded: “Yes, there are so many people today, and I can rest assured that I won’t be watching in the dark?”
Hearing what he said, Su Qingyu felt relieved. Enjoy the lanterns with him.
At the beginning, there were not many people on the street. They still had the leisure to look left and right, occasionally commenting on the work results of the yamen and the servants, and then appreciating the highlights of the lanterns hung by various merchants and comparing them. Ichiban.
As the night fell, the number of tourists on the street gradually increased, and they were crowded together.
Lu Bocheng half hugged Su Qingyu, protecting her and moving slowly step by step, fearing that others would scratch her.
Su Qingyu nestled peacefully in his arms, feeling even more at ease. Look at him from time to time.
“Madam, what’s wrong?”
Su Qingyu smiled at him: “Thank you for being by my side.”
Lu Bocheng took out his hand and gently scratched her pretty nose: “What nonsense, I’m not with you, where are you going?”
Su Qingyu smiled, let him protect her, and watched the lanterns with him. When the mood struck, the two of them went to various merchants to guess lantern riddles. Lu Bocheng also won a lotus lantern for Su Qingnao, who happily held it in her hand.
The street was brightly lit like daylight, with people flowing in and out, and the sounds of vendors on both sides could be heard constantly. Lu Bocheng took her to try and eat together. After a while, the two of them were full.
“Madam, I can’t eat any more for my husband.”
Su Qingyu would try every snack. After taking one or two bites to get a feel for the taste, he would give it to Lu Bocheng. Lu Bocheng was fed by his wife all the way, which made him feel a little stuffed.
“If I had known about the evening meal, I would have just followed the example of the children and just take two bites.” I had eaten too much for the evening meal, and now I am so full that I have to bear the sweet burden that my wife has thrown at me.
“Then let’s take a stroll and eat. By the way, Pei Shi and other adults just invited you to the restaurant to look at the lights. Do we want to go?”
Lu Bocheng thought for a while and shook his head: “I’m not going. I’ve been busy for a whole year, why don’t you let me take a break? I have to worry about socializing now, and I’m exhausted. Besides, what’s there to talk about with them? It’s more important that I watch the lanterns with my wife.”
“Okay, let’s buy some lotus lanterns and put them in the river, hoping that our whole family will be safe in the coming year.”
“Okay.” Lu Bocheng agreed and took his wife to buy lotus lanterns.
The couple each carried many small lotus lanterns and crowded to the crowded river.
“Mother, mother, this way! We are over here!” Xiaobao, with sharp eyes, saw them and immediately raised his hand to greet them.
Xiaoqi was riding on Qingyang’s neck and raised her little hands towards them: “Dad, mother, come quickly!”
Dabao and his guards squeezed a way for his parents, and the couple walked towards the children.
“Mom and dad, did you also buy so many lotus lanterns? Are they for blessings for our family?”
Su Qingyu nodded.
Xiao Qi had already returned to his father’s arms and said enthusiastically: “The eldest brother and the second brother bought a lot, wrote our names on them, and put them in the river. Our family will be safe next year!”
“Really?” Lu Bocheng pinched his daughter’s nose happily.
“Dad, don’t pinch it! It won’t look good if it collapses!”
“Okay, dad won’t pinch you.” The little girl was a liar, and she knew she was pretty. Lu Bocheng happily bumped the little girl in his arms.
Su Qingyu looked at the lotus lantern in her hand and said to Qingyang: “Then write the names of our family members too, and pray that everyone is safe.”
“I’ve written it all.” Qingyang babbled towards the lotus lanterns slowly drifting away in the river.
“Then pray that my people in Zhenhai will be safe.”
“Okay.” Qingyang took it.
When the people nearby heard it, they immediately cheered: “Peace be upon you, peace be upon the sea, peace be upon you.”
Lu Bocheng and Su Qingyu looked at the cheering crowd and were very excited.
Lu Bocheng stretched out his hand, took hold of Su Qingyu, and looked at her intently, as if he couldn’t get enough: “Madam, from now on, I will accompany you to the lantern festival and put out river lanterns with you every year, okay?”
Su Qingyu nodded: “Then you have to work hard to make Zhenhai safe. You must also be safe so that you can watch the lantern show with me every year.”
“Okay. I will work hard for my husband.”
Dabao, Xiaobao and others also crowded forward: “We will also work hard.”
Su Qingyu and Lu Bocheng looked at the children and relatives surrounding them, looked at each other and smiled. The world is at peace, my family is safe and sound, and I wish to live happily ever after with my wife and husband. (End of text)
