    ?

    Arriving at Nanshi Street in Yingtianfu, it was nightfall, and the lights were on. Jiang Yan saw the lotus lanterns and moon cakes for sale on the street, and smelled the scent of sweet-scented osmanthus in the air, and suddenly realized that today is the Mid-Autumn Festival.

    ? During these two days of vacation, I was so busy with the blessing music that the Tai students practiced during the sacrifice that I forgot such an important festival.

    ?Because it is the reunion day, most people gather at home to worship the moon, and at night, there are not as many pedestrians on the street as in the past, only a few wealthy businessmen and strangers hang around in restaurants and music workshops.  Wei Jinghong led Jiang Yan into a restaurant, went up to the second floor, stood still in front of the room facing the river on the east side, knocked on the door and said, "I brought you here."

    After a while, the closed door was pulled open, and a tall and upright figure appeared in front of the two of them.

    Seeing Fu Li again after more than a month, Jiang Yan almost didn't recognize him.

    What he is wearing today is a dark blue military gown, the material of which is obviously much poorer than before, with a black cloth belt around his waist, holding a thin knife in his hand, and a cowhide wristband wrapped tightly around his wrist.  The dark-colored tether is no longer decorated with gold-encrusted buttons.  The simple martial robe was worn on him, but it was indescribably handsome and extravagant.

    The face is still the same as before, but the temperament is quite different.  After taking off the brocade clothes, the young man at this time is like a sharp knife out of its scabbard, just showing its edge, even the coarse military robe still can't hide the elegance of his whole body.

    Jiang Yan was stunned for a while before returning to her senses, squinting her eyes at Fu Li and said, "I almost dare not recognize you."

    She is still wearing a plain youth Confucian uniform, her long hair is simply tied on the top of her head, and the two strands of hair hanging from her temples are especially delicate. When she smiles, her eyes are crooked, like a young boy who doesn't know much about the world.  Fu Li's Adam's apple twitched, he took a step back holding the knife, and said, "Come in."

    "I won't go in. I'll make an appointment with the young lady of the Wu family to watch an opera later." Wei Jinghong waved his folding fan, blinked and said with a smirk, "Talk, talk, and then send Jiang Yan back."

    "Hey, after dinner"

    Before Jiang Yan finished speaking, Wei Jinghong closed the paper fan and tapped his palms, and leisurely went downstairs.

    Wei Jinghong slipped away so easily that Jiang Yan had no choice but to enter the door by herself.  Fu Li beckoned Xiaoer over, then sat down opposite her, put the saber on the table, looked at her quietly with pale eyes, and asked, "What do you want for dinner?"

    The carved windows of the elegant room are half open, and there is a moist cool breeze from the Qinhuai River, and you can faintly hear the pipa singing from the painting boat.  The Changhe River is brightly lit, and the outlines of the pavilions are hidden in the darkening night, making it a good place to view the scenery.

    Jiang Yan looked at the furnishings of the private room. Although the room was clean and tidy, the tables, chairs and porcelain vases were not as exquisite and rich as Shangshan Zhai.  Then he looked at Fu Li's clothes which were not as good as before, and said with a smile, "I want to eat vegetarian today, Xiaoer, what do you recommend?"

    Just as Xiao Er answered, Fu Li who was beside him interrupted: "I remember you like meat, why don't you order meat dishes?"

    Jiang Yan choked, and asked softly for a moment: "How do you know I'm addicted to meat?"

    "In the bitter summer of last year, the food hall made vegetarian dishes for three days in a row, and you tampered with a line of Su Dongpo's poem and gave it to the head of the house." Recalling the past, Fu Li raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and whispered in a cold voice, "'  It is better to live without bamboo than to eat without meat. Without bamboo makes people vulgar, but without meat makes people thin."

    When he said this, Jiang Yan remembered.

    At that time, the head of the house was so angry that he couldn't get angry, so he made two pig's knuckles for Jiang Yan to chew on, and he was not allowed to go back to sleep if he couldn't finish eating.  The head of the fast wanted to use this to punish her, but Jiang Yan not only accepted it with a smile, but also made a comment after eating the two pig knuckles slowly: "It's a bit bland, and it tastes better with a little salt."

    The head chef of the chef was laughed at by her, and waved a big spoon to tell her to leave quickly. Since then, Jiang Yan has become famous in the restaurant.

    Unexpectedly, such a trivial matter would take Fu Li's heart.  Jiang Yan's heart warmed up, and she put her hands on the edge of the table and said, "Actually, I ate too much meat that day. When I went home at night, I had a stomachache for a long time."

    "Let me have a piece of eight-treasure duck, a steamed mandarin fish, and stewed beef brisket in a casserole." After thinking about it, Fu Li still felt that it was not enough, and added, "For vegetarian dishes, I need to stir-fry three shreds, crab roe and tofu, and auspicious rolls"

    "Oh, that's enough!" Jiang Yan was afraid that he would order all the dishes in the store, so she hurriedly stopped, "The two of us can't eat that much."

    Fu Li didn't listen to it, and continued to report the name of the dish, "The barley and red dates soup, and a plate of melons and fruits that are in season."

    Xiao Er wrote it down one by one, smiling so that the pockmarks on his face squeezed together, and hurriedly responded: "Okay, you two, drink tea and wait for a while, the food will be here soon!"

    After Xiaoer closed the door and left, Jiang Yan said helplessly: "If you can't finish eating, it will be yours."

    "If you can't finish eating, it's Wei Jinghong's." It seems that Fu Li'sTo dispel all the haze.

    Fu Li's eyes moved slightly, and his pale lips parted slightly. Before he could say anything, Jiang Yan's eyes lit up, and he looked behind Fu Li and said with a smile: "Hey, the food is here!"

    So he could only swallow the words that he almost couldn't help himself, took the bowl and chopsticks, wiped them, and handed them to Jiang Yan.

    After finishing the meal in silence, Jiang Yan proposed to go to the bridge beside the Qinhuai River to watch the moon worship.

    The lights of the city are like red lotuses blooming, and the fairy dances happily, which is very beautiful.  Jiang Yan was walking on the side of the road with the box of moon balls in her arms, reaching out to rub her abdomen from time to time, staring at the handsome young man who was silent beside her and said, "I told you not to order so many dishes, it would be a waste if you can't finish it.  When Si Ye sees it, he will severely criticize you and me."

    Fu Li paused, raised his chin slightly forward: "Here we are."

    Jiang Yan followed his guidance, and suddenly took a breath.  On the stone arch bridge not far away, bright red lanterns stretched for tens of feet, like a river of lights flowing.  On the bridge, people come and go, those who stop to admire the lanterns, and those who look up to worship the moon, the lanterns on the bridge are like fire, and the flowing water under the bridge reflects the sky and the world, as if in a fairyland for a while.

    This is a grand event and prosperity that cannot be seen in Yanzhou.

    Jiang Yan was overjoyed for a moment, but couldn't help herself, and ran up the stone bridge against the crowd.  Fu Li's expression tightened, and he hurriedly followed, "Jiang Yan, slow down!"

    As soon as the words fell, three or four children holding windmills rushed towards him without thinking. Jiang Yan was only looking at the lights and the full moon, and was knocked staggered for a moment.  Only by giving her a hand did she keep from falling.

    "Are you okay?" Fu Li asked.

    The worry in his eyes was obvious, and the orange-red firelight illuminated his handsome and cool face.  Jiang Yan forgot about the pain in her back for a moment, she just smiled and shook her head.

    She struggled for her hand, but instead of breaking free, Fu Li held it tighter.

    After this grip, I could never let go.

    The starry sky is quiet, the full moon is like a disk, and the water waves under the bridge shatter the shadows of the stars and the moon. Standing under the warm yellow light, the two of them are like standing in a long golden river.  It seemed as if the hustle and bustle of the surroundings had faded away, and the passing crowd had all become a blurred background, only two people stood facing each other, one was persistent and cold, the other was ignorant and bright.

    Question: Mr. Wei, what is the basic quality of an assist?

    Wei Jinghong: As a qualified assist, one should always appear when it is supposed to appear, disappear when it should disappear, and leave behind his clothes when things are over, hiding his identity and fame.  (shaking the fan and smiling)
