In the blink of an eye, it was March 2nd.
It was the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the Lantern Festival.
The little girl did not like to watch the gala performances on TV, so the family went out together after dinner.
Where were they going?
Of course, they were going to enjoy the lanterns.
The Lantern Festival began more than two thousand years ago in the Han Dynasty and had always been a major festival in Hua Xia.
According to the ancient customs, the New Year was only truly over after the Lantern Festival.
However, the pace of life was getting faster and faster. Even though the legal holiday stipulated that people would only go to work on the seventh day, many private enterprises still required people to start work on the fifth day.
Among them, there were even more, such as the catering and entertainment industry. They might open for business on the eve of the New Year, so the employees naturally could not rest.
Such a pace of life directly led to the Lantern Festival almost following in the footsteps of the Dragon Boat Festival.
With the decline of the Lantern Festival, the lively scene described by Xin Qiji in "Green Jade Case: Yuan Xi" was naturally no longer as lively as before.
The east wind blossoms a thousand trees, blowing down the stars like rain.
The fragrance of precious horses and carts fills the road, the sound of Feng Xiao moves, the light of a pot turns, fish and dragons dance in the night.
Moths flutter in the wind, Yingying and laughing in the wind.
He searched for her thousands of times in the crowd, but when he looked back, she was at the fire.
Today was Friday. Although the public institutions were on holiday, most private enterprises still had to work tomorrow. In addition, everyone might be tired of playing during the New Year, so the Wuhou Temple Street was not as lively as it was during the Spring Festival.
After leaving the house, the family took a taxi and went straight to the Panda Lantern Festival.
The moon on the fifteenth was full and round, but what was more dazzling than the moon was the colorful lantern festival.
Because they set off late, by the time Chen Xi and the rest arrived at the lantern festival, it was already a ten-mile long street with brilliant lights.
As soon as they got out of the car, the fragrance of magnolia drifted to the tip of everyone's nose in the breeze.
The little girl sniffed the fragrance in the air and turned her head to see the entrance of the lantern festival.
There were a few panda lanterns outside the lantern festival. Although they were ugly and cute, they made her shout excitedly.
"PaPa, look! Panda! Panda! "
In fact, to this little girl, there was not much difference between going to the lantern festival and going to the zoo.
She was dazzled by the colorful lanterns in all kinds of shapes and sizes. She chattered excitedly all the way.
In Chen Xi's eyes, this lantern festival was somewhat similar to the Earth Temple Fair. Other than strolling around, there was only eating, drinking, and playing.
However, what was worth praising was that the food in Chengdu was indeed much better than the food in Shang Jing …
The whole family ate and watched along the way. After admiring the lanterns, they watched the magic show. Finally, under the illumination of the fireworks, they sat in the car and went home with satisfaction.
In the end, this trip to Chengdu was still very pleasant.
…
The next morning.
After breakfast, Chen Xi pulled the little girl to his side and asked with a smile, "Niannian, Daddy has already bought the plane tickets. We'll fly back to Zhonghai later and visit our old home, okay?"
"Alright!"
The little thing's eyes lit up at the mention of taking a plane.
Seeing this, Chen Xi struck while the iron was hot and said, "Then go and help your mother pack her things now. After she is done, we will set off."
"Good! I'll go help MaMa! "
Everything went smoothly.
It wasn't until Chen Xi changed the boarding pass and took her to say goodbye to Aunt Zhang that the little thing suddenly froze in place.
After staring blankly for a long while, she suddenly came back to her senses.
Was she going to say goodbye to her grandmother?
She thought Aunt Zhang was going to go home with them …
When Chen Xi saw that the little girl's expression was a little strange, he immediately smiled and hugged her in his arms. He gently comforted her and said, "Niannian, we should get on the plane. Hurry and say goodbye to your grandmother. We'll come to Chengdu to see her again in the future."
Perhaps it was because this period of time together had aroused her dependence on Aunt Zhang, so when the little girl came back to her senses, she immediately said very angrily, "No! I'm not going! I want to go with my grandmother! "
This expression of anger rarely appeared on the little girl's face, so when Chen Xi saw her expression, he was quite surprised.
The little girl was angry and twisted her body to get out of his arms.
Seeing this, Chen Xi immediately hugged her tightly and didn't let her run away.
But this hug was serious …
After realizing that her freedom of life was restricted by her father, the little thing flipped out on the spot.
"I'm not going! I'm not going! I want to go with my grandmother! My grandmother wants to go with us! "
As she shouted, her voice started to sound like she was about to cry. Following that, she burst into tears.
Well, things were getting out of hand.
The reason why the couple didn't tell the little girl in advance was that they were afraid that she would cry.
But what would come would come, and they couldn't avoid it even if they wanted to.
The reason why they wanted to leave was actually because of the same reason.
Aunt Zhang had her own family, and their family was always outsiders. Naturally, they couldn't stay at Aunt Zhang's house for a long time.
After all, all good things must come to an end.
There were people coming and going at the ticket gate, and the little girl's sudden crying attracted a lot of attention.
Chen Xi had no choice but to take the little girl to a rest chair and let Aunt Zhang comfort her.
This kind of thing had happened many times.
It was normal for children to be clingy.
So, the family comforted the little girl one by one.
Chen Xi took out his phone and made a live video call with Aunt Zhang. He promised that he would bring her to Chengdu in the future, and only then did the little girl slowly stop crying. But she still didn't want to be separated from Aunt Zhang. She lay in her grandmother's arms without saying a word, as if she had been wronged.
In the end, even the airport broadcast announced that they were boarding the plane. Only then did the little girl reluctantly wave goodbye to her grandmother with red eyes.
"Grandmother, grandmother! We'll come to see you in the future! "
After watching the couple carrying the little girl gradually disappear into the distance, Aunt Zhang couldn't help but wipe the tears from the corners of her eyes.
Although she wasn't her biological child, her love for Niannian was very real …
The plane took off.
Perhaps it was because she had just cried, but the little girl didn't even have the interest to look at the clouds outside. She fell into a deep sleep.
When she woke up again, the family had already returned to Zhonghai.
The moment the cabin door opened, a salty sea breeze unique to coastal cities blew in.
Unlike Chengdu and Shang Jing, Zhonghai gave Chen Xi the most unique feeling.
But that feeling didn't come from the city itself, but from the people standing next to him at this moment …
Chen Xi carried the little girl. The moment he walked out of the gangway, he couldn't help but hold Qin Ruoying's hand.
Zhonghai.
We're back.
