Cooking smoke rises with the morning glow. Gradually, people began to walk along the village road.

In the flower fields on the edge of the village, some villagers are digging flower roots as early as possible. Two neatly dressed children carried a freshly folded lotus boat and ran laughing to the beautiful house by the flower field.

In August, the prosperity is at its best. Under the fence of the house, the chrysanthemums bloomed vigorously like splashes. A man from Zhilan Yushu was holding a scoop of water from the bucket under his feet, and poured it into the chrysanthemum bush leisurely.

"Brother scholar, this is for you."

"Brother scholar, this is my fold, it's better than the apricot! You want me to do this. ”

Qin Yunqian turned his head and gently touched the soft hair of the two children. He took the lotus boat and praised their craftsmanship with a smile. Then he took out a plate of sugar cakes from the small wooden table in the courtyard and gave them to the two children. The older child shook his hand and said, "We are here to give gifts to the scholar's brother today, how can we take anything more." ”

The younger little girl named Xing'er looked at the sugar cake in his hand with a blank eye, twisted her fingers and said, "Xing'er doesn't want it either." We'll come back tomorrow to get it. ”

Seeing that the little girl's saliva was about to flow out, Qin Yunqian couldn't help but laugh. From the small rattan branch utensils in the courtyard, I picked out two small food boxes and put sugar cakes and some red sour fruits into them. He bent down and said to the two children: "Today is the Midyear Festival, you come to give gifts, and I naturally want to return the gifts." ”

The child naturally likes novelty and food, and when he heard this, he immediately took it with joy. You look at me, two. I'll look at yours, and the laughter keeps coming from the small courtyard.

In the flower field, two peasant women raised their heads. One of them, dressed in red, wiped his sweat and said, "Who lives in this house?" It seems that there is no one in this village who doesn't like him. ”

Another woman smiled and said, "My sister just got married, no wonder I don't know." There is a pair of brothers and sisters surnamed Xiu living in this house, who traveled here ten years ago, because they like this piece of peony in our Taiping Village, so they stayed. This little lady's name is Xiu Qilang, and I don't know what the little lady's name is. ”

The woman in red was surprised: "Ten years! So how old was this little Langjun when he came here? ”

"It's strange to say, this Xiu Xiaolangjun was like this when he came here."

A woman not far away approached. said: "Speaking of which, this Xiao Langjun is not small. Why are you not married? ”

The previous one laughed and said, "What, are you still thinking about it?" Why didn't you hold on for a while back then, and give Naxiu Xiaolangjun a few more months of big buns. Maybe today. You're Mrs. Xiu. ”

The new lady blushed. chirped: "I don't know which one came here to deliver the flatbread back then?" ”

The woman in red saw the two of them growing louder. Lest they quarrel because of each other's shortcomings, so he hurriedly interjected: "It's not that the two brothers and sisters live in this house, why have I been here these days." Haven't seen that little lady before? ”

"Don't say it's you, even if we have only met that little lady once."

"That little lady is also an amiable character, just like this little Langjun, she is polite when she sees everyone, with a smile on her face. I didn't mean to look down on us. ”

"Look at this little Langjun's behavior like he came out of a big family, maybe the rules are heavy, so the little lady doesn't go out?"

The newcomer said: "You don't know this, I heard that the little lady is a powerful person, not like the master who is locked in the house to embroider." What's more, people follow their brother out to study, how can it be. ”

"Yo! Isn't that one? The woman in red interrupted her and raised her finger in the direction of the house.

The two of them followed her fingers, and sure enough, they saw a young girl figure behind the fence.

Su Jinge didn't expect to see such a scene as soon as he got out of the customs: the chrysanthemums in the courtyard were blooming brilliantly. A few children in the chrysanthemum bush are playing happily. Qin Yunqian, on the other hand, sat on a small bench and seriously discussed with a little girl at what age she began to not drool.

This style of painting is also a little too weird. Su Jinge was a little suspicious, whether she was in an absurd dream.

When Qin Yunqian saw her come out, a smile appeared on his face. In fact, he was smiling all the time, but the moment he saw Su Jinge, that smile became a little wrong.

When Xing'er saw Su Jinge come out, she ran over and said, "Are you Sister Xiu?" You're so beautiful. ”

Su Jinge's mood immediately soared, this was the first time someone praised her for being beautiful, although the other party was a child. She squatted down and pinched Xing'er's face, "Seeing that you have such a good eye, my sister will invite you to eat something good tomorrow." ”

Xing'er blinked and said, "Are you eating chrysanthemum cake?" The chrysanthemum cake made by the scholar's brother is the most delicious, will Sister Xiu also make it? ”

Chrysanthemum.

Su Jinge shook his head vigorously, allowing himself to ignore this flower with multiple meanings, "It's something more delicious than chrysanthemum cake." ”

Xing'er clapped her hands happily, and pulled Su Jinge to share the joke she had just heard with her, "Sister Xiu, Brother Scholar actually thought that six or seven-year-old people would still drool, don't you think it's funny?" ”

Su Jinge nodded and said, "Usually when a child has full teeth or learns to eat, he won't drool anymore. If you are still drooling at the age of six or seven, you must be gluttonous. ”

As soon as Su Jinge's voice fell, the smile on Qin Yunqian's face became even more unpleasant.

It was nearly noon, and some people kept calling their children home for dinner, and many people even brought gifts to the door to collect them in person. Qin Yunqian also gave appropriate gifts one by one.

There are a number of gifts every year, but this year, Qin Yunqian found that there seemed to be more people than before. The extra people obviously came to see what it was fresh and what Su Jinge looked like.

The sun rose to the highest point of the day, and only Su Jinge and Qin Yunqian were left in the courtyard.

Among the dazzling gifts on the table are several chic lotus boats. Su Jinge picked it up. After looking at it for a while, he said, "What is this?" ”

"Every year on August 15, there are river lanterns here to pray."

Su Jinge was stunned, when did the north have this custom? Yes, this is a time and space that has been played by the people who have run away from the main story. She turned her head to look at Qin Yunqian, but after a closed pass, Qin Yunqian was already very accustomed to this place when she came out again.

The chrysanthemums under the fence, and the half-copied calligraphy on the table against the window, are said to be chrysanthemum cakes made by himself.

This is not only adaptation, it is simply like a fish in water, and it is comfortable.

Su Jinge looked at Qin Yunqian thoughtfully. Qin Yunqian was also looking at her. I still have that wrong smile on my face.

"Seventh brother."

"Huh?"

"Do you have a cramp in your mouth?"

"Nope." Qin Yunqian shook his head with a smile and began to clean up the mess in the courtyard.

This person started such a down-to-earth activity, and it turned out to be a breeze and moon, Zhilan Yushu. Except when fighting the big golden rooster in the Ice Lotus Cave and in the meeting place. He always seemed to feel that way. Just like when I first met him.

Su Jinge suddenly understood what Qin Yunqian was laughing at, she pulled the corners of her mouth and said, "Cut." What is drooling at six, I started losing my teeth when I was a teenager. ”

Qin Yunqian's movements froze, this didn't seem to be something worth showing off. And that's not the point.

Su Jinge immediately understood his expression, and she also knew that the point was indeed not that. In fact, she was also very puzzled, even when she saw the master, she didn't drool, why did she leave saliva when she saw this guy for the first time. In fact, if you want to compare it seriously, this guy doesn't look as good as Feng Liluo.

Su Jinge sighed silently. In the final analysis, I still had too little knowledge back then.

Speaking of which, why didn't you drool when you saw the master back then? Was it because I ate too many sour fruits in those days, and my saliva became numb and stopped flowing, or was it because I was lying down at the time, so the saliva didn't flow out?

Su Jinge sat on the small bench and ran away gorgeously. As for the shame of drooling because she saw someone's good-looking parents, she had already thrown it to the back of her head.

A small pot of mixed vegetable soup, a plate of moon cakes filled with Lingmipi Lingguo and a few kinds of vegetarian fried Lingcai were served to the table one by one.

It was the first time that Su Jinge sat and waited to eat.

This table of simple materials but exquisite decoration of the dinner tasted very good.

Su Jinge raised his eyes and looked at Qin Yunqian, and couldn't help but feel sorry for him. This guy is actually quite good, except for being a little jealous. Su Qingxue really missed him.

Thinking of Su Qingxue, Su Jinge was also a little unsavoury for a while. If they return to the Zhongyuan Continent in the future and meet Su Qingxue again, they will break up because of their different positions.

All evil consequences arise from feelings, and all good thoughts are born from love.

Some people sow evil consequences for the word love, while some people do great good for the word love. But Su Qingxue is the first one. The evil deeds she committed were all born from her affection for Murong Chong. Good and evil are just a thought, but she chooses what others are least willing to see.

Su Jinge was depressed in his heart, so he raised his neck and poured the bowl of soup in his hand into his stomach pouch, then put the bowl down, wiped his mouth with his cuffs and said, "Let's go to the light market." ”

Qin Yunqian was still chewing the vegetables slowly, and when he saw Su Jinge say this, he put down the dishes and chopsticks, and said with a smile: "Okay." ”

On festivals, the imperial court does not enforce curfews. From the princes of the official family to the peddlers and pawns, they will all gather in the lamp market to have fun. Compared with the Shangyuan Festival in ancient poems, this Xiayuan Festival is not far behind. Although there is no gorgeous scenery of thousands of flowers and trees blooming in the east wind night, there is no BMW carved car full of incense, and there is no fish and dragon dance with the sound of phoenix flute. But there is a river full of lanterns. The simple one is just the appearance of a small boat, but the complex one has all kinds of flowers, birds, fish and insects.

The flowing water carries the floating lantern and slowly drifts away. The lamps and the shadows in the water together form a beautiful scenery that people can't bear to break.

Su Jinge put the lotus lantern with the candle flame into the water, and pushed the lamp with his hand and gradually drifted away.

She sat on the shore and watched the lamp drift slowly on the surface of the water. He turned around and asked, "Brother Seven, don't you put a lamp?" ”

Qin Yunqian sat down beside her, "There are already many lights in this water, and I can see the beautiful scenery even if I don't let it go." ”

"But Brother Seven, the one who puts the lamp is the one who makes a wish."

Qin Yunqian said with a smile: "Do you believe this? ”

"Monks don't always talk about the destiny of heaven and the way of heaven. Maybe if you make a wish, the way of heaven will hear it. In case the day Dao is in a good mood, we won't earn it. ”

Qin Yunqian was silent for a moment, and said in a low voice, "I don't believe it. ”

Su Jinge said with a smile: "Sometimes if you believe it, you should give yourself a psychological comfort, which is also good." ”

"It's useless after all."

"How can it be useless, at least my heart will be more relaxed. Brother Qi has read a lot of books over the years, but has he read the Tao Te Ching? ”

Qin Yunqian smiled, nodded and said, "Naturally, I have read it, and I have benefited immensely." ”

"I've read it too, and when I read it, I think it's saying: You have to obey the sky, you have to do nothing. But at the end of the book, I realized that this book is telling me that my fate is up to me. ”

Qin Yunqian was stunned for a moment, frowning and thinking.

Su Jinge said with a smile: "Seventh brother doesn't have to think deeply, what everyone reads will not be the same. My Dao heart is natural, but I don't feel that there is anything wrong with the word 'fight', and what is wrong with going against the sky. Nothing in this world is absolutely black, and nothing is absolutely white. Brother Seven, you still don't have to be too clear. ”

When Qin Yunqian heard this, he finally heard what she meant. This girl is nothing more than remembering the things in the Wuji Palace. Worried that he would become too paranoid because of the frustrations he had suffered. When he first repaired the spiritual root, he was indeed secretly ruthless, vowing to bear all the people in the world, and never let anyone bear him again. It's just that this idea and determination have become weaker and weaker as he travels and grows.

If you continue to be paranoid like that, I'm afraid it will damage your Dao heart and will not help you to advance. He was able to successfully marry Dan because he figured this out. Even so, Qin Yunqian was still grateful for this girl's concern.

He looked at Su Jinge with a smile and said sincerely: "Thank you Xiaoliu for hanging up." ”

Su Jinge smiled slightly, looking at the floating lights all over the river, and suddenly felt much better. If Qin Yunqian no longer obsessed with the cause of the destruction of the spiritual root back then, and no longer stubbornly stubborn about what happened at that time, the Dao heart would go on steadily. Then he won't be like Su Qingxue, and suddenly he will change into a look she doesn't know.

The road of cultivating immortals is so long that it is lonely, and she can't be like Duan Qingya, no matter when, no matter where she goes, she can call friends and be happy. She has few friends, so she cherishes each one more and more.

Among them, how many people can accompany her all the way?

Among the many floating lanterns, a small and simple lotus lantern shook in the water and was planted to the side.

Su Jinge recognized it, it was the river lantern she had just released.

The subtle aura flashed by itself, and the fallen river lantern magically set its position, and the lower end of the lamp quickly formed patches of frost flowers, wrapping the lotus lantern at a speed visible to the naked eye. The originally ordinary lotus lantern immediately became delicate and exquisite.

Qin Yunqian's nice voice sounded softly on the side, "Since it's for a good mood, wouldn't it be better to be in such a mood?" ”.
