Chapter 240 Look at the lights
"Lu Minghui is Qian Jiyuan's disciple, and he usually comes and goes frequently."
Cheng Ke explained,
"On the second day of junior high school, Qian Jiyuan invited several old friends who have been friends for many years to drink, including Xu Shengrong's father Xu Zhenghu."
"What is he going to get rid of? What can he get rid of? ”
Li Xiaonuan asked with a frown, Cheng Ke took out the hand that was pillowing behind his head, hugged Li Xiaonuan, and laughed softly,
"There are such people who think they are smart and always want to be exquisite!"
Li Xiaonuan knelt on Cheng Ke's chest, was silent for a while, and sighed lowly,
"In the end, there is still a second sister in the middle, in case ...... Mother doesn't know how sad it is, the second brother-in-law is not young, and he hasn't received an errand until now, otherwise it would be more appropriate to send him away from afar. ”
"Don't worry about him, Lu Shangshu is a well-known loach that fell into the oil cylinder and slipped so much that he couldn't pinch it, Lu Minghui also won the true inheritance of his father, and he refused to get involved in anything a little deeper, just stood on the side and watched and waited, not wanting to take a little risk, but also thinking about picking the biggest bargain!"
"Well, because of the second sister... Mothers are well-known for loving their children, as long as our family can get by, we will not let the second sister suffer, our place, as long as the second sister is here, he doesn't have to take it to heart at all, just take care of the other two, and he will be invincible. ”
Li Xiaonuan said slowly, Cheng Ke snorted heavily, and became a little helpless,
"Alas, this man calculates too much, and he is a 'stupid' word! He didn't want to think about it, could it be that everyone was stupid, and he was the only one who was smart? ”
"What should I do?"
Li Xiaonuan supported his chin, looked at Cheng Ke, and asked worriedly, a trace of coldness flashed in Cheng Ke's eyes,
"Let him go! If anything is bad, the safety of the second sister, we can still protect it!"
Cheng Ke said, stretched out his hand to hug Li Xiaonuan, sat up, Li Xiaonuan hurriedly sat up, and sighed secretly, this Cheng Ke will never put himself in the shoes of others, if the husband and children are not good, what can the second sister do if they are safe? !
"I'll go early, I'll rush back when I'm done, and let's watch the fireworks in the evening."
Cheng Ke hugged Li Xiaonuan from behind and said with a smile, the two got up and ate, Li Xiaonuan and Cheng Ke went out of the courtyard together, one went out of the house, the other went to the main courtyard, and they went to their own homes.
Li Xiaonuan was busy until the time was not punct, before he settled everywhere, went back to Qinglian Courtyard to rest for more than an hour, got up to wash, combed his hair again, changed into a lotus blue dark cloud pattern forging jacket, a white background makeup forging flowers and butterflies dragged skirt, went to the main courtyard to pick up the princess, and went out to the Runan Wangfu Lantern Tower together, as in previous years, the palace invited a few relatives and friends who did not take the lamp tower to come to the lamp tower to see the lights.
Not long after, a group of several cars arrived at the lamp tower, Li Xiaonuan helped the princess get out of the car, and went up to the third floor, according to the convention, the second floor is where the men enjoy the lanterns, and the women are on the third floor.
Looking out from the third floor, the view is excellent, to the east, in the direction of the palace, the mountain shed of the official mansion is high, and there are several lamp mountains, the lamp mountain has been lit, in the twilight, brilliant, splendid, Li Xiaonuan squinted her eyes slightly, looking at the brightness in the distance, almost shed tears, such a dazzling, once, she could see it every day.
Li Xiaonuan looked away and looked along the large and small Dengshan, next to the official Dengshan, the first one on the left is the Chengwang Mansion, and down in turn, it is the Xinwang Mansion, the Min Wangfu and the Jingwang Mansion, and then the first one on the right is the Jingbei Wangfu, and the second is the Runan Wangfu, next door to the Runan Wangfu, is Tang Chengxiang's house.
The Dengshan, the highest magnificence of the Chengwang Mansion, and the most crowded people in front of the music shed next to the Dengshan.
Li Xiaonuan turned his head slightly, looked at his own music shed, and invited a team that specializes in treading on the rope and a few Hu Di to come over, at this time, in the music shed, a thin old man from Hu Di put a peach pit on the stage, watered, chattered, watching the peach pit sprout, pull leaves, become a tree, bloom, and bear fruit, Li Xiaonuan looked carefully, tilted her head and thought for a long time, but she didn't come up with a reason, this illusion, and magic, is the simplest kind, she can't figure out where the trick is, from before to now, all like that.
"Don't get too close to that railing! Watch out for the artillery flying up, look scared. ”
The princess beckoned Li Xiaonuan, Li Xiaonuan hurriedly stepped back, turned around, and retreated to the princess to stand, watching people serve tea and snacks, taking care of several elderly elders and shy and excited little girls.
The ladies who came to see the fireworks entered the building one after another, chattering with each other and sitting down politely, Li Xiaonuan let and greeted the ladies and young ladies of the family, and out of the corner of her eye, she saw the mother-in-law waiting downstairs hurrying up with her skirt, walking to the princess's side, and reporting in a low voice, the princess nodded again and again, beckoned Li Xiaonuan to come over and ordered:
"Don't wait here, hurry down, Xiao Ke said that there is something urgent to find you! Hurry up! Don't delay!"
Li Xiaonuan raised her eyebrows slightly, and said hesitantly:
"Mother, then ...... here"
"It's all settled here, what else can happen? You hurry down, Xiao Ke's affairs are all big things, but you can't delay it, hurry up, he is in a hurry, and he wants to lose his temper again!"
Li Xiaonuan hurriedly bent her knees and agreed, Zhu Qing came over with a sable cloak, Li Xiaonuan wore it, and the ladies and ladies in the light tower said goodbye to each other, and helped Zhu Qing's men downstairs.
Cheng Ke was standing in front of a very ordinary-looking green oil car, stretching his neck, looking in a little anxiously, seeing Li Xiaonuan coming down, he hurriedly greeted him, stretched out his hand and took Li Xiaonuan's hand, and said with a smile:
"I rushed back to the house and said that you came to the light tower, and you didn't wait for me in the house."
"What are you waiting for? and thy words cannot be numbered. ”
Li Xiaonuan said with a smile, a trace of embarrassment flashed on Cheng Ke's face, and in a blink of an eye, he said with a grin:
"There is a reason for everything, everything happens for a reason, and it won't happen in the future, don't worry."
As he spoke, Cheng Ke took half a step back, carefully looked at the white-background lotus silk cloak worn by Li Xiaonuan, and then looked at the pearl and emerald hairpin on her head, nodded with satisfaction, pulled her, and said with a smile:
"Let's go shopping, it's not convenient to take a car."
Li Xiaonuan nodded again and again, followed Cheng Ke, turned out of the light tower, and merged into the bustling crowd.
The wide street is crowded with people in costumes, there are groups of men and women, there are **** with children, there are filial children and grandchildren who accompany the elderly, there are husbands and wives, and there are brothers and sisters......
Li Xiaonuan only felt that her eyes were not enough, and looked at the crowd around her all the way, carefully looking at the small merchants and vendors who walked through the crowd and shouting loudly, admiring the lanterns hanging at the doors of each shop on both sides of the street, and looking at everything that made her curious.
Cheng Ke took Li Xiaonuan's hand, looked at her, and looked at the people or things she was looking at. Zhu Qing took jade buckles, jade plates and other girls and four or five mothers-in-law, followed closely behind Li Xiaonuan and Cheng Ke, and Yuanshan took all the small servants and long-term followers, trying to maintain the formation in the crowd, almost tightly surrounding Cheng Ke and Li Xiaonuan, left and right, separating the hustle and bustle of the crowd that was crowded around.
"The holy car is coming out soon, let's stand in that place, it's best to watch the dragon from there!"
Cheng Ke hugged Li Xiaonuan, pointed to the music shed next to the Jingwang Mansion Lantern Tower and said, Yuanshan hurriedly signaled to everyone, surrounded Cheng Ke and Li Xiaonuan, and squeezed to the music shed next to Jingwang's Mansion.
"What is a dragon?"
Li Xiaonuan asked while turning his head to look at the excitement and strangeness around him, Cheng Ke looked down at Li Xiaonuan who was full of joy and excitement, and his mood also flew with joy, and said with a smile:
"You'll know when you see it later, you see, the Jingwangfu Lantern Tower and the Minwangfu Lantern Tower are separated by more than a zhang in the middle, just because Xiaojing wants to occupy this best place to watch the dragon, that place, it took me and Xiaojing several years to see it, this Lantern Festival, after watching the dragon, it doesn't matter what is next to it."
Runan Wangfu Lamphouse and Jingwangfu Lamphouse are very close, the two said a few words, and the group squeezed to the music shed under the Jingwangfu Lamphouse, Qingping greeted him from afar, and led the two into the open ceiling next to the music shed, separated by a curtain in the compartment.
Li Xiaonuan looked at Cheng Ke suspiciously, Cheng Ke hugged her up the steps, entered the compartment, and explained in a low voice:
"I asked Xiaojing for this place, anyway, his lamp tower is empty, and no one in his house came to see the lamp this year."
"King Jing is not here either?"
"Well, he said that being alone is boring, and I don't have time to accompany him!"
Li Xiaonuan turned his head to look at the brightly lit lantern tower behind him, frowning slightly.
In the dark place of the lamp building, Zhou Jingran pinched a wine glass, stood at the corner of the railing, looked down at the high platform surrounded by curtains next to the music shed, through the top of the open compartment, looked at Cheng Ke who was hugging Li Xiaonuan, bowing his head and laughing, and Li Xiaonuan, who was smiling like a flower next to Cheng Ke, slowly drank the wine in the cup, sighed gloomily, turned X and went downstairs, and went to Xuande Building.
In the imperial city not far away, there was a heavy and slow drum beat, Cheng Ke raised his eyebrows, and hurriedly signaled Li Xiaonuan,
"The Holy Driver is coming out."
Li Xiaonuan hurriedly stood up, walked half a step forward, crossed the crowd crowded on the street, looked at the direction of Xuande Building, the Xuande Gate slowly pushed open, and a pair of big red and gold lanterns flowed out neatly and quickly from the door, extending outward, standing layer by layer, isolating the noisy crowd from the holy car that was about to come out.
After the red lantern came out, the music shed outside the Xuande Gate lived together, the fine music sounded upstairs in Xuande, in the gate, a pair of handsome guards on horses wore red brocade shirts, and the side of the flower costume was wearing a trembling red velvet flower, holding the reins in one hand, holding the glazed jade pillar lamp in one hand, the sound of horses' hooves came out in pairs, and went to the direction of Dengshan, followed by the guards carrying the red gauze bead lantern, and then behind, the inner servants who held the golden chairs, fruit plates, palace fans and other things used by the emperor to travel
It's a tiring day, let's change it today, tomorrow will be normal, crawling and lying down.
Well, I'm embarrassed, but, cough, that, powder, I still like powder, right fingers
