This small town was not big, but it was very lively. The streets were full of lanterns, and the crowd was moving shoulder to shoulder.
The theme of the lanterns was not a tacky meeting of lovers, but a blessing.
Pray for the blessings of your family, friends, and loved ones.
"Oh, Xian Yang, you also brought your husband to see the blessing?" A woman in an official's uniform stood on the street and shouted when she saw Shi Sheng and Chen Bei coming over.
"Can't I?"
"How can it not be? But you have to keep a close eye on him. There are many people watching your husband." The woman winked at Shi Sheng. "Don't let him be alone."
Shi Sheng went in another direction. Not far away, a woman was surrounded by people and was looking at her sinisterly.
"Got it." Shi Sheng waved at her.
"Hey, by the way. This is the pear blossom wine made by my family. It tastes pretty good. " The woman stopped Shi Sheng and handed the packaged pear blossom wine to her. Then, she said, "Forget it, I'll put it at the door for you when I go back later. It's not convenient for you to bring it with you."
"Thank you."
"You're welcome. The shift is here. I'll leave first."
The woman changed shifts with the other person. She waved goodbye to Shi Sheng and went in the direction of her house.
Shi Sheng and Chen Bei went to the lively street.
"They're following us." Chen Bei whispered in Shi Sheng's ear.
Shi Sheng smiled and did not say anything. He hugged him and went to the river in town.
At this time, the river was colorful with the lanterns on both sides. There were still lanterns on the river, and they were slowly floating into the distance.
"Miss, they're going that way."
"Let's go."
A few people sneakily followed behind Shi Sheng. There were fewer and fewer people around. The person called Miss waved to the others, and a few thugs immediately rushed out to block the people in front.
"Isn't this Young Master Chen Bei? What a coincidence! " The woman pushed away the thugs blocking the way and looked at Chen Bei lecherously. "What did Young Master Chen Bei think about what I said to Chen Bei last time? I promise that you'll have a much better life with me than with her. "
"You've met her?"
"She came over to talk to me when you went to buy Qiqiao Pastry for me last time."
Shi Sheng put her hands on her hips. "Why didn't you tell me?" She had no idea that her daughter-in-law had met this woman.
"You were fighting with someone … I forgot about it." At that time, she almost tore down the shop. He was busy pulling her away, so he didn't remember about it.
"Remember, no matter when, your matters are the most important."
Chen Bei nodded, indicating that he understood.
The woman was ignored by the two of them and was even forcefully fed a mouthful of dog food. She expressed that she was very unhappy. "Hey, I say, Young Master Chen Bei is such an exquisite person. He will suffer a lot with you. Why don't you give Young Master Chen Bei to me? I'll give you a large sum of money.
"Will you suffer with me?" Shi Sheng looked at Chen Bei.
Chen Bei: "…" He had just thrown a big bag of gold last night. Although he did not know how much was inside, it was definitely not a small amount.
Chen Bei's silence made the woman opposite him think that he was unwilling. She immediately became smug. "You can't give Young Master Chen Bei better, so you shouldn't tie him up … Ah …"
Before the woman could finish her words, she was kicked into the river. The next second, there were a few splashes. Her followers also went into the river with her through thick and thin.
Shi Sheng stood on the shore and looked down at the people flopping in the river. "Do you think you can give him something that even I can't give him?"
The woman only cared about flopping. How could she have the energy to answer Shi Sheng.
Shi Sheng hugged Chen Bei and walked back. The sound of flopping behind them gradually subsided. The night wind was noisy and cold.
"Your Majesty." Chen Bei sighed.
"Anyone who covets you deserves to die."
Chen Bei held her hand tightly and said in a low and hoarse voice, "Your Majesty, don't kill for me anymore."
The night wind blew the intertwining of their black hair in the void. Shi Sheng turned to face Chen Bei and smiled slightly. "I'm happy for you, worried for you, honored for you, and killed for you. I'm willing to do it."
"Xianyang." Chen Bei pulled Shi Sheng into his arms. "How could I have met you?"
"Probably saved the Milky Way in my previous life." Shi Sheng chuckled. She was such a good person that she could only meet after saving the Milky Way.
Chen Bei let go of Shi Sheng after a long time. "Let's go release the river lanterns."
"Okay."
There were many people releasing river lanterns. Shi Sheng took Chen Bei downstream and found a place with fewer people to sit down. Chen Bei lit the river lanterns and slowly put them into the water.
The dim yellow light of the river lanterns reflected on his face and coated it with a layer of warm light. Small flames danced in his eyes, making him look warm.
Shi Sheng held his cheeks. "What did you write?"
Chen Bei put all the river lanterns into the water. He blinked his eyes and said softly, "I want you to stay by my side for a long time. I'm the only one in this life … Don't stain your hands with blood again."
"You're a little greedy."
"You allow me to be greedy, don't you?"
"You're taking advantage of me." Shi Sheng took out a river lantern from behind. "Guess what I wrote?"
"Hmm …" Chen Bei muttered and shook his head. "You don't have to tell me."
Shi Sheng kissed him on the cheek. "Are you afraid? Are you afraid that what I wrote is not what you think? "
"Who's afraid?" Chen Bei pushed her away. "Release your river lantern."
Shi Sheng lit the river lantern and pushed it into the water. The river lantern swayed and merged with the large group. A breeze blew and the river lantern slowly turned in a different direction. The scribbled handwriting on it suddenly appeared, and a few words could be vaguely recognized.
— — If you don't let me down in this life, I'll accompany you in the next life.
"Baby, do you still remember what you said before?"
When Chen Bei heard her call him baby, his heart skipped a beat. She usually would not call him that. She was either angry or …
"What did I say?" Chen Bei moved back.
"When we first met, you said that you would never fall in love with me." Shi Sheng pulled him back. "Then what is it now, baby?"
"Did I say that?" Chen Bei pretended to have lost his memory. "You must have remembered wrongly. I didn't say that."
Shi Sheng reached out to tickle him. "Are you sure?"
"I really didn't say that. No, Xian Yang … Don't, itch … Don't mess around. I said it, I said it. Stop tickling."
Chen Bei was afraid of being tickled. He smiled and panted on the grass.
His vision suddenly darkened, and the familiar face magnified in his eyes. The soft touch on his lips made his body tremble. Chen Bei's eyelashes fluttered, and he closed his eyes subconsciously, allowing the person on top of him to take what she wanted.
The night breeze blew gently, and the blurry memories slowly became clear. A line connected the scattered images.
He reached out and hugged the person on top of him tightly. With a top turn, he pressed the person under his body, changing from passive to active.
"Hey, hey, let me tell you. Last night, I picked up a bag of gold. It fell from the sky and almost knocked me out. It was really a pie falling from the sky. Hahaha."
"Really?"
"Of course it's true. Why would I lie to you …"
Shi Sheng and Chen Bei looked up at the two people above them at the same time.
Their gold!
…
Shi Sheng did not live long in this plane. The poison in her body had not been cured. The man in the bamboo hat did not tell her where the antidote was until he died.
Chen Bei knew the reason why Shi Sheng did not look for the antidote. She did not want to stay in these planes for so long, but she also wanted to spend more time with him.
After she died, Chen Bei also followed her, leaving only the small courtyard where they used to live.
Occasionally, there would be a jar of pear blossom wine by the door of the courtyard, placed there alone.
