Both worlds are like dreams

Chapter 267: Seeking Employment at Yue Lao Temple

Xue Huang suddenly realized that she was not very good at archery before, so she rarely came into contact with it. If it weren't for Gu Qinglan, she might not have such a great interest in archery. She learned it quickly after she came into contact with it, but she rarely used it. If she hadn't come out to play with Gu Qinglan today, she wouldn't have remembered this skill.

So when the stall owner talked about the two people shooting arrows, she didn't understand for a moment.

Xue Huang pressed herself against Gu Qinglan and could clearly feel his heartbeat, his breathing, and the temperature of his palms, so she was sure of one thing: Gu Qinglan was nervous again.

She smiled, relaxed her strength, and let Gu Qinglan hold her hand to control the direction, but the arrow still went astray.

Even the stall owner could see Gu Qinglan's nervousness, but he actually looked like he was watching a show, "Sir, relax a little. Look, the girls are more natural than you."

Although Gu Qinglan was nervous, he shot an arrow into the air but did not let go of Xue Huang.

Xue Huang smiled and said, "Brother Qinglan, I want that little rabbit ceramic doll."

"Okay." Gu Qinglan calmed his heartbeat, drew the bow again and shot the arrow. The arrow flew out, passing through the iron ring and hitting the center of the bull's eye.

"There are two more arrows." The stall owner took the initiative to hand over the arrows.

The remaining two arrows hit the target without any surprise thanks to the tacit cooperation between Xue Huang and Gu Qinglan, and applause broke out from the crowd.

"Boss," Xue Huang said with a happy smile, "I want that bunny doll and that lotus lantern."

The stall owner smiled and gave Xue Huang what she said, "Girl, you two are the most compatible couple I have ever seen."

Xue Huang thought that this boss was really good at talking. She smiled and handed the rabbit to Gu Qinglan, "Do you think it's cute?"

"Like you." Gu Qinglan said with a smile.

"Really?"

Gu Qinglan nodded, "But still not as cute as you."

Xue Huang smiled happily, "Let's go, I have something else to take you to."

"Okay." Gu Qinglan put away the things he had just won, and then left the stall with her.

Xue Huang and Gu Qinglan first released the river lanterns. Although it was not yet dark, the river lanterns floating on the crystal clear river were still very beautiful.

Gu Qinglan asked: "Is this the place you want to take me to?"

"Of course not." Xue Huang waved for the carriage that was waiting here to come over, and then pulled Gu Qinglan up.

The carriage drove towards the south of the city.

About an hour later, they stopped in front of Yue Lao Temple, the one that Xue Huang and Mo Xingyue had visited before.

She always remembered to bring her lover here to ask for flowers from the old woman.

Xue Huang looked at the men and women who kept coming in and out and smiled slightly, "Xingyue said that she must let me bring you here."

"I heard that there is a very loving old couple here, and they often give flowers to those they love."

Xue Huang nodded, "Shall we ask for one too?"

"Okay." Gu Qinglan took her in.

The two men went straight to the garden, but did not see the old couple.

"Girl," Xue Huang stopped a woman, "Where is the old lady here?"

"Are you here to ask for flowers too?"

Xue Huang nodded.

"Then you are late. The old lady has given away all her flowers. Please come back tomorrow."

Xuehuang was a little disappointed. If she hadn't been so playful, perhaps she would have been able to catch up.

Gu Qinglan patted her shoulder and said, "It's okay, we'll come back another day."

"Okay." Xue Huang smiled, "Let's go over there and take a look."

She pulled Gu Qinglan to the wishing pool. There were still a lot of people here, and there were layers of copper coins in the pool.

If a thief comes to steal this in the middle of the night, it will take a long time to spend.

"Do you have any wish?" Gu Qinglan asked.

"I certainly hope we can always be together."

Gu Qinglan took out a copper coin and threw it into the water. "I will fulfill your wish."

Xue Huang raised an eyebrow, "Are you trying to steal Yue Lao's job?"

"Yue Lao won't mind." Gu Qinglan said with a smile. "He will help everyone to achieve their goals."

"I'll show you something else." Xue Huang took his hand and came to the marriage tree. There were more and more red ropes and wooden signs on the tree, and the leaves were almost invisible. The whole tree was just a bright red.

Xue Huang has never liked the color red, but when she saw the marriage tree hung with red ropes, she thought it was very beautiful.

She pointed to the top of the branch. "Look there."

Gu Qinglan looked in the direction of her hand, and saw a wooden sign hung tightly with a red rope at the top of the tall Yue Lao tree. The words on it could not be seen clearly because it was too far away, but the red rope fluttering in the wind was extremely clear.

"Did you tie that on?"

Xue Huang nodded, "On it, there are your name and mine. I tied it at the highest point so that Yue Lao can see it every day."

Gu Qinglan held her hand and said, "I have something else I want to give you."

"What is it?"

Gu Qinglan took out a brocade box from his bosom and opened it in front of Xue Huang. Inside was a very beautiful hairpin. "This is what my mother left for me. She said that if I meet someone I love, I will use this as a betrothal gift and marry her."
