Chapter 93: Qinhuai Lantern Festival

"Your gentle compassion makes me not know how to face it, can no longer give me any comfort, can no longer stop my tears, your gentle compassion makes me not know how to regret it, there can be no change anymore, and it can no longer heal my heartbreak. ”

At dusk, Ye Chen's deep singing sounded in the ears of many people through the radio station, causing a strong resonance and producing a strange spiritual shock.

"Hello everyone, I'm Jiang Kun, the host of the new song express column of Huaxia Music Radio, I don't know how it feels about that song just now? Anyway, after listening to it, I can't help but think of my childhood sweetheart, she is the kind of person who is particularly gentle, but is not sensitive to feelings and is very coarse, I still remember the day when I confessed to her that I loved her, she was stunned for ten minutes before she reacted, and later, she became my wife, and we are now living very happily, so, listeners in front of the radio, if there is a favorite object, you must grasp it, say your love loudly, only in this way, will not regret it. ”

"Okay, the topic is a little far, let's talk about this song, this is a particularly popular song in Soviet Province a few days ago, and now it has spread to the whole country, I think many listeners may have heard of a sad song, "Gentle Compassion" , Listening to the name is very philosophical, the singer, Ye Chen, a girl who is only eighteen years old, may not be known to most people, but if you talk about another person, I am afraid everyone will suddenly realize that Jiang Li, yes, is the genius music son Jiang Li, the winner of the Best Newcomer Award at the 2007 Chinese Music Festival. ”

This song is Jiang Li's creation for Ye Chen, it is not the first time that the two of them have cooperated, there are "Leaves", "Always Quiet" and "Summer Blown by the Wind", all of which are popular songs worth listening to, Ye Chen's voice is very distinctive, showing the hoarse vicissitudes of age, just like sandpaper slowly polishing, smoothing the hard edges and corners of the heart, and smoothing the wounds, compared with the previous songs, this "Gentle Compassion" Ye Chen's performance is the best, and his singing skills have obviously improved a lot, especially a vibrato of zuihou, which is like crying, which makes people's heartstrings tremble. ”

"Just listening, it's like seeing the sad arc of the corners of the other party's mouth, this eighteen-year-old girl, what kind of extraordinary story does it have, and how many quiet things it has, I'm afraid, only she knows it, but in fact, we can try to speculate a little, she may have a person in her heart, this person, leave it to everyone's imagination, okay, let's listen to another song next......"

An orange sedan swept across the seemingly endless highway in the afterglow of the setting sun, speeding away toward the wind, from which the announcement had just emanated.

There are five people sitting in the car, Shu Yutong in the driver's seat, Jiang Li in the co-pilot, and Tang Shishi, Zhang Nara and Ripple sitting in the back row, this time I came out to go to Jinling to see the Qinhuai Lantern Festival of the Lantern Festival, although Jiangcheng also has it, but the scale is not large, and the second is that it is too easy to be recognized in Jiangcheng, once recognized, it is a collective riot of the masses, and it is completely impossible to enjoy the fun of the Lantern Festival.

When the second song sounded, Tang Shishi said meaningfully: "This Jiang Kun is very interesting, I don't know who the person he is talking about is?"

Zhang Nara looked at the gradually darkening sky and the unchanged scenery outside the window, but what she was thinking about was the story of Jiang Kun confessing to his childhood sweetheart, and saying his love loudly, can he really succeed? Or can't even the current relationship be maintained?

"We're going to Jinling soon. Shu Yutong spoke lightly, breaking the momentary embarrassment in the car.

Ripple, who was sandwiched between Tang Shishi and Zhang Nara, blushed and whispered to Jiang Li: "Brother, I want to sit on your lap, so that the field of vision is broader." ”

"Uh...... All right. Jiang Li stretched out his hand and pulled the ripples between the two seats in the front row, and the pure white dress wrapped around his delicate buttocks and landed on his legs, soft, like cotton candy, and elastic.

Ripple is fourteen years old, except for his flat chest, all other places are well developed, and the two of them seem a little crowded when they sit together, especially the place where Jiang Li is squeezed by his hips, which actually causes a physiological reaction, which makes him so embarrassed, he has always been surrounded by beautiful women, and he has formed a good immunity to some extent, but it is still ...... He hurriedly picked up the ripples and moved her forward, as if she was a few pounds heavier than last year, but it was still very light for him, and it was effortless to pick her up, as before.

From a few years old to a teenager, Ripples always looked like a little girl who didn't grow up in front of Jiang Li, and somehow, when he saw her, he would feel inexplicably at ease.

Ripple twisted his body dissatisfied, as if he was very dissatisfied with Jiang Li's movement, but he didn't say anything, but leaned on the platform in front of him with his chin in his hands, looking at the scenery flying outside the car.

Shu Yutong glanced at Jiang Li and Ripples, the corners of his mouth showed a trace of tenderness imperceptibly, and he continued to concentrate on driving, a highway sign was quickly left behind, and the car really entered the Jinling territory, and in less than an hour, it could reach the bank of the Qinhuai River.

Every year during the Lantern Festival, a grand lantern festival will be held on the banks of the Qinhuai River, recreating the scene recited by Xin Qiji in "Qingyu Case: Yuan Xi" thousands of years ago.

The east wind blooms thousands of trees at night, and blows down, and the stars are like rain. BMW carved cars are full of incense, the sound of the phoenix flute moves, the jade pot turns brightly, and the fish and dragon dance all night.

Around the Confucius Temple, the lanterns are like the clouds floating on the ground, the music played by various traditional Chinese musical instruments flows endlessly, and the fragrance of snacks and supper floats across the stone road, bustling, and the figures are scattered, dancing.

Jiang Li and the others chose a road with fewer people to walk, passing by a stall selling various masks, the other party was shouting: "Don't miss it when you pass by, come and see, I have all the masks here, demons, monsters, animals, and characters......"

"Are there any tomatoes?" Shu Yutong suddenly walked over and asked.

The stall owner was stunned for a moment, and said with a wry smile: "Girl, you are really joking, how can there be tomatoes...... You see you're so beautiful, why don't you have a beautiful mask to set off it......"

"Don't. Shu Yutong's eyes darkened, and she turned around and walked away, but she had already attracted Jiang Li and the others, Tang Shishi, Zhang Nara and Ripple came up to touch this and touch that respectively, the stall owner was stunned for a long time, and was dazzled by a few beauties in front of him, came back to his senses, and hurriedly peddled masks.

"Silly Li, how about this?" Tang Shishi didn't pay attention to the stall owner, but took a cute kitten mask, covered her delicate face, and smiled at Jiang Liyingying.

In the interplay of light and shadow, a pair of big watery eyes flickered through the kitten mask, cunning and smart, which was really tempting.

Today, Tang Shishi is wearing a beige babydoll shirt, her full chest is towering, and her lower body is denim shorts with black leggings, the predecessor of the leggings is bodybuilding pants, slim design, suitable for beautiful legs haode girls, Tang Shishi is like this, the legs are not only long but also thin, full of youthful vitality.

If it weren't for Jiang Li and Tang Shishi staying for a long time, they would have formed a certain resistance, and at first glance, they would definitely be as stunned as the stall owner, but now, he was still stunned, and then smiled: "Yes, it's very suitable for you." ”

"Hmph, it's not sincere at all!" Tang Shishi took off the kitten mask and rubbed it in her hand, obviously she couldn't put it down, and she fell in love with this.

Jiang Li smiled knowingly and said to the stall owner: "I bought this, by the way, there is this, and this." ”

He bought the masks that Zhang Nara and Ripples fancied, and when he turned around and wanted to get one for Yutong, he found that the other party was missing, at this time, Zhang Nara handed Jiang Li a mask and smiled softly: "You forgot to buy it for yourself." ”

"Xiexie, Nala. Jiang Li took the mask, and it was a simple abstract figure with black lines, although simple but interesting.

"Why is Yutong gone?" Tang Shishi also found an abnormality at this time, and exclaimed, "No one answered the phone." ”

"The phone should have been lost in the car, okay, you go to the place where you rent the painting boat and wait for me, be careful on the road, I'll go find Yutong." Jiang Li admonished, and quickly turned to leave.

Seeing the group leaving, the stall owner wondered for a while, suddenly clapped his hands, and suddenly realized: "Wasn't that young man Jiang Li just now! God, no wonder I feel familiar, as if I have seen it somewhere, I am really blind and dizzy, I didn't even recognize it just now!"

Jiang Li was shuttling through the crowd, but he didn't dare to call Shu Yutong's name, for fear of attracting attention and revealing his identity, which would be even more troublesome.

Shu Yutong is such an adult, there should be no problem, but despite this, Jiang Li still wants to find the other party as soon as possible to confirm the situation, and after hearing the stall owner say that there is no tomato mask, her mood seems to be quite low.

The night breeze is blowing, and a stage is set up in the place near the river, and a troupe is singing on it, and a lantern is lit around, which is very beautiful.

At this time, I listened to Hua Dan on the stage raise her voice and sing a song adapted from Xin Qiji's "Qingyu Case, Yuan Xi", which is very charming with the accompaniment of erhu and guzheng.

"The moth snow willow is golden, the smile is full of dark fragrance, the crowd is looking for him thousands of times, and suddenly he looks back, but the person is there, and the lights are dim. ”

Swish!

Jiang Li subconsciously looked at the bank of the river full of lanterns, and saw a shadow squatting there lonely, as if it was integrated with the night lights, and his heart suddenly settled down and walked over quickly.

Shu Yutong's slender jade hand went deep into the water, unconsciously and gently stroked, and his faint eyes seemed to look through the bottom of the water, but there was no focus at all.

A hand rested silently on her shoulder.

Shu Yutong suddenly turned around, and saw a mask, like a ghost in the swaying light and shadow, startled, his feet slipped, and the whole person fell backwards, and the cold river water was behind.

"Yutong-!"

Jiang Li didn't care about anything else at this time, and hugged the other party, because of too much force, Shu Yutong's whole person was held in his arms.

"Leave, is that you?"

"It's me, I'm afraid of being recognized, so I wore this mask, I'm sorry, I scared you. ”

"Hmm. ”

Shu Yutong's heart, which should have been relaxed, was beating faster, her cheeks were slightly red, Jiang Li was still holding her, the first time she was so close, so close that despite a mask in the middle, they could clearly hear each other's breathing, and even feel each other's heartbeat.

With the warm fragrant nephrite in his arms, Jiang Li was a normal young man, and he couldn't help but feel a dry mouth and a hot face, but fortunately there was a mask to cover it.

The two of them remained in a hugging posture like this, motionless, as if they were afraid of falling into the water, and they were silent to each other, and an atmosphere called ambiguity circulated around them.

The wind blows, the water ripples, and the lights come on.

In an instant, it seemed that the whole world was lit up, and hundreds of Kong Ming lanterns rose from dozens of painting boats, like stars dotting the night sky of Qinhuai for ten miles.

"Maybe you won't understand, since you said you love me, my sky and stars have lit up......"

Reflected in the water, the two people hugging each other, the cherry lips and the mask, the place where the lips touch the mask, is the position of the mouth.
