Chapter 585: The Boy's Heart
Shen Qian saw that Lian Man'er was a little stunned, so he handed the palace lamp forward again, and tentatively grabbed Lian Man'er's hand and held the handle of the palace lantern.
When doing these actions, Shen Qian's expression was quite cautious. When he successfully handed over the palace lamp to Lian Man'er, he seemed to be relieved. The glint in his eyes seemed to have accomplished a great thing.
Even Man'er came back to her senses at this time, looked at the palace lamp in her hand, and then looked at Shen Qian, and couldn't help but smile with relief.
"Thank you, Xiao Jiu." Lian Man'er said sincerely. Sometimes it's easy to know how someone treats you. When there is a person who gives you the good things that he has, cherishes, and that he thinks you will like, without hesitation, and the only thing to worry about is that you will not like it and will not accept it. Then there is no doubt about this person's feelings for you. And such a person, such a heart, needs to be cherished and loved.
Lian Man'er held the palace lamp in her hand, and looked at it carefully, and the more she looked at it, the more she liked it.
"Xiao Jiu, where did you get this palace lamp?" Lian Man'er asked Shen Qian. I don't know where the skilled craftsmen made such exquisite craftsmanship.
"I entered Beijing when I was eight years old, and the queen's aunt gave it to me." Shen Qian replied happily.
"Ah, it's so precious."
"What my aunt gave me is what I have. Now I'm giving it to you, it's yours, Man'er. I still have a lot of good things there, and when you come to Fucheng, I will take them out and show you slowly. It seems that he is afraid that Lian Man'er will return the palace lamp to him again. Shen Qian hurriedly explained. And when it came to Lian Man'er going to Fucheng, the expectation in Shen Qian's eyes was almost overflowing.
Lian Man'er looked at Shen Qian, and took back the words that she was about to return the palace lantern. Although Shen Qian is not very old, he still does things in a measured manner. He wouldn't take out what he couldn't give away and give it to her.
Even the palace lamp sent by the late queen. That's just a palace lamp. The preciousness of this palace lamp only lies in the heart of Shen Qian behind it.
"Xiao Jiu, you can take it for me for a while." Lian Man'er handed over the palace lamp to Shen Qian. Then he raised his hand, took off the string of sandalwood carved Buddha head beads on his left wrist, and handed it to Shen Qian. "Xiao Jiu, this is for you. This was invited to me by my mother last year, and I sent it to the temple for 49 days, and asked the abbot to open the light, saying that it could keep peace. I wear it all the time. This year, life has been quite smooth, and there are no minor illnesses and disasters. ”
Last year was Lian Man'er's current calendar year, and according to the traditional saying of the Zhuang family, this year will be full of disasters and difficulties. So. Zhang's entrusted the Li family, begged someone to "invite" this string of Buddhist beads, and after consecrating and offering in front of the Buddha, he put on a talisman for Lian Man'er.
"Give it to you, and it will keep you safe."
Shen Qian didn't seem to expect that Lian Man'er would have something to give him, and he was a little stupid with joy, and after a while, he happily gave the palace lamp to Lian Man'er, took the Buddha beads in his hand, and rubbed them for a while. It was carefully worn on the wrist.
After that, the two of them carried lanterns and stood in front of the railing to see the night view of the light market below.
"Ichthyosaurus, ichthyosaurus dance," Shen Qian looked at it for a while, and then meditated and thought about it. kept muttering in his mouth, while still looking at Lian Man'er.
"What kind of fish and dragon, Xiao Jiu, do you want to compose poetry?" Lian Man'er looked funny and asked.
"I either want to compose a poem, or I suddenly remembered that there is a poem about the Lantern Festival, which is written about the Lantern Festival. I only remembered that there was a sentence in it that was the Fish and Dragon Dance. Others, in a hurry, can't remember. Shen Qian squinted his eyes and said with a smile.
"It's a shame that you were admitted to Xiucai." Lian Man'er laughed. In fact, the most important thing in the imperial examination is the eight-strand article, and the poetry aspect is considered to be miscellaneous. Especially in this dynasty, the most important thing is practicality. "Even I know this word."
When Shen Qian talked about the Fish and Dragon Dance, Lian Man'er remembered that there was such a poem, which depicted the scene in front of them.
"Man'er, you get me, I'm not Xiao Qi." Shen Qian's eyes widened a little, and it was clear that he didn't believe Lian Man'er's words.
"Can't I go to school?!" Lian Man'er glanced at Shen Qian, and suddenly her heart moved, "Xiao Jiu, the ancients had a word teacher." Today you can't remember the song "Ichthyosaur Dance", I told you. Then should you respect me as a teacher? ”
"This ...... Yes, yes. Shen Qian seemed to hesitate for a moment before saying, "But, Man'er, if you only know one or two sentences, then you won't count." ”
"How could I only know a sentence or two." Lian Man'er raised her eyebrows, thinking to herself, Xiaopang recognized her as a teacher, and then she would have a good reason to no longer care what Xiaopang called Xiaojiu.
Shen Qian saw Lian Man'er raise his eyebrows, so he was humbly taught.
"Man'er, since you know, read it to me."
"The name of this poem is Qingyu Case ......," Lian Man'er said.
Qingyu case Yuan Xi
Thousands of trees bloom at night in the east wind,
More blown down, the stars are like rain.
BMW carved cars are full of fragrance.
The sound of the phoenix flute moves, and the light of the jade pot turns,
A night of fish and dragon dance.
Language has its unique charm, and the scenery in front of her is so consistent with this word, Lian Man'er can't help but indulge in the beauty and the meaning of the word......
Moth snow willow golden wisps,
The laughter is full of dark fragrance.
Zhongli ......
Thinking of this, Lian Man'er suddenly noticed that Shen Qian's expression was different, and unconsciously moved in her heart again, and subconsciously stopped her mouth.
At this time, Shen Qian didn't look at the light market below at all, but turned his back to the outside of the tower and looked at her. The eyes were slightly narrowed, and the corners of the mouth were smiling, where was it still a little milk dog, and it was clearly a little fox.
A little fox with a calculating look in his eyes, and a triumphant triumphant of successful calculations.
Shen Qian waited for a while, but when he didn't see anything next, he took it himself.
The crowd is looking for him thousands of times,
Suddenly I looked back, but the man was there,
The lights are dim.
Lian Man'er squinted her eyes and looked at Shen Qian. She just forgot that although the lyricist himself wanted to express his Qingliu position and political ambitions, later generations often used it to attach a lover to meet on the night of the first month, and there were various extensions, all of which involved love and love.
Shen Xiaopang, this guy, didn't mean to coax her to read this poem. Otherwise, why did you only remember one sentence at the beginning, but then it was so smooth.
Did she mistake the little fox for a little milk dog?
The expression on Lian Man'er's face became more and more dangerous.
Shen Qian also looked at Lian Man'er, his eyes reflected the light, shiny, moist, flashing with anticipation, pride, and a little nervousness.
Lian Man'er stretched out her hand......
"Man'er, Xiao Jiu, why are you still here?" Gorou suddenly turned around from the other side of the tower and said in surprise. He just took Xiao Qi and a few others to chase the dragon dance over there, and after a while, he found that Lian Man'er and Xiao Jiu were not in front of him, so he came over to look for it.
Gorou's appearance made the two people looking at each other look away, and even Man'er took back the outstretched hand.
"Brother, we're about to go over. Look, Xiao Jiu gave this to me. Lian Man'er said, and raised the palace lamp in his hand a little higher for Gorou to see.
"Oh......" Before Gorou could say anything, Xiao Qi ran over.
"It's so good-looking, will there be it tomorrow, brother, sister, little ninth brother, can we come and see tomorrow?" As Xiao Qi spoke, he saw the palace lamp in Lian Man'er's hand, and his eyes suddenly widened.
"It's a beautiful light. Little Brother Jiu, is it yours? You gave it to my sister? ”
Xiao Qi bypassed Wulang, ran to Lian Man'er and Shen Qian, and circled around the palace lantern, envious.
"Hmm." Shen Qian nodded, "Xiao Qi, if you still want to come and see the lights tomorrow, I'll ask someone to talk to the people watching the tower." ”
When Shen Qian said this, Xiao Qi was embarrassed to respond immediately, but he laughed twice, and then went to see Wulang and Lian Man'er.
At this time, everyone had already finished watching the dragon dance lantern and walked back from the other side of the tower. Gorou saw that the hour was not early, so he said that it was time to go back. Everyone nodded and came down from the tower.
Walking to the fourth floor, I met Lian Shouxin and others, and everyone came out of the tower together.
It was already dark at night, but the streets were still crowded with people.
Although the children were greedy and lively, they couldn't stay up all night, and there was an older Li family, so everyone discussed it and began to walk back.
Shen Qian is still walking with Lian Man'er, Xiaoqi, and Wulang.
"Xiao Jiu, you definitely won't be able to go back to Fucheng tonight, but you can arrange a place to stay?" Gorou asked Shen Qian.
"Little Brother Jiu, you finally came out for a trip and played in the county for a few more days. Then go to the village and stay at our house for a few days. "Xiao Qi is very enthusiastic, he likes Shen Qian very much.
Before answering, Shen Qian sneaked a sneak glance at Lian Man'er first. Seeing that Lian Man'er had no anger on her face, she was immediately a little relieved. But he didn't see any joy on Lian Man'er's face, which made him a little uneasy.
"Only able to stay one night and have to go back tomorrow. Where to live......" Shen Qian said this, and glanced at Lian Man'er again, if he didn't have time to arrange a place to live, could he follow Lian Man'er back and stay at Lian Man'er's house for one night.
Before Shen Qian could decide what to say, he saw two older steward-looking people walking over from the crowd.
"I found it!"
"Ninth Master, you make it easy for us to find."
There were two stewards of the Shen family, one of whom was also familiar with Lian Man'er's family, and it was Steward Zhong.
Shen Qian's face changed slightly.
"Ninth Master, hurry back, the house is going to be turned upside down." Steward Zhong only had time to hug his fists with Lian Shouxin, so he went to Shen Qian and whispered a few words.
Lian Man'er didn't hear much what Steward Zhong said, but looking at his demeanor and tone, he was a little urgent.
Shen Xiaopang, he can't come by himself without passing through the house, right?
