Chapter 24: Troublemaking

In the blink of an eye, the Lantern Festival has arrived.

On this day, Su Shanyun was not only not excited but also a little listless, she even secretly hoped that God would suddenly rain down, so she would have a reason not to go on a blind date.

But it backfired, the weather was very good all day, and in the evening, she had no reason not to go to Daqing Garden for a blind date.

Okay, then let's go, anyway, if you feel that the other party is not agreeable, I will resolutely disagree, Su Shanyun said secretly in her heart.

Seeing the resistance in Su Shanyun's heart, Mrs. Xiao held Su Shanyun's hand from the afternoon and earnestly instructed: "When you see people, you must be polite whether you like it or not, don't leave halfway, and don't say too much, anyway, you just use your eyes and ears to see and listen." ”

but did not teach her to judge with her own mind.

Su Shanyun nodded, but she had her own ideas in her heart.

She even had a hunch that she wouldn't like Cao Pinnan.

She couldn't say the specific reason, but she had such an intuition anyway.

So she felt that this blind date was just a formality and would not have a big impact on her life.

In the evening, Su Shanyun ate a bowl of glutinous rice balls and two glutinous rice dumplings, and then took a carriage with her stepmother to Daqing Garden.

In Daqing Garden today, groups of people can be seen everywhere, some guess lantern riddles, some put lamps on the shore, some walk hand in hand, and some gather in one place to chant poems and talk about joy.

Looking at such a beautiful scenery, Su Shanyun's mood was inexplicably lighter.

Zhang Ying and Su Shanyun walked hand in hand.

Since Zhang Ying was coming to Daqing Garden for the first time and was not familiar with the terrain inside, she could only be led by Su Shanyun.

Zhang Ying walked relatively slowly, and Su Shanyun had to slow down her pace to match her speed.

Zhang Ying was a little embarrassed, but this kind of thing was not easy to tell Su Shanyun, who was only twelve years old.

Since marrying Su Ziming, Zhang Ying has truly realized how beautiful it is to live with someone who is happy with both hearts.

In the past little over a month, except for the few days when she came to Xiaodai, Su Ziming did not have husband and wife affairs with her, and the rest of the days when the two of them enjoyed the joy of fish and water as long as they arrived at night, and the love was so lingering that she blushed and her heart beat when she thought about it.

In the past few days, seeing that her little day is coming again, he has to hug her in the early morning and whine passionately, and the clouds and rain are several times before he refuses to stop, and even she feels that her bones seem to fall apart throughout the day, and she feels that her legs are weak and her waist is weak when she walks.

But I feel so happy!

That's how loving couples should be, right? No matter what we do together, we are full of interest, sweet and warm.

So she was suddenly very glad for her persistence back then.

I was not blinded by the courtship of those princes and grandsons, I didn't feel sorry for myself because of my age, and I didn't give up my original intention because of other people's gossip, but I just waited hopefully.

Finally waited for him at the age of twenty-eight.

Why do you have to be perfect in the eyes of others? As long as they believe that each other is worthy of life and death.

So she sincerely hopes that Su Shanyun can also find a happy home.

After crossing an arched stone bridge, the Qin River was in front of them, and the two of them saw the painting boat parked on the river in the distance.

"Stepmother, we're here." Su Shanyun said to Zhang Ying.

"Okay, let's get on the boat." Zhang Ying said with a smile, clenching Su Shanyun's hand.

The two parties had already made an appointment to meet at this boat.

Before they could board the boat, they saw a young man in a royal blue robe standing in the bow of the boat, and he was smiling at them.

There is no need to doubt that he is Cao Pinnan.

Su Shanyun's whole person became alert like a hedgehog.

When Su Shanyun and Zhang Ying boarded the boat, the young man immediately stepped forward a few steps and saluted them respectfully, and then said thoughtfully: "Please inside." ”

The two of them hurriedly thanked each other, and crossed the threshold with their skirts and went inside.

Inside, a woman in her thirties sat up, and when she saw them enter, she hurriedly got up to greet them.

"This is my son Cao Pinnan, who is sixteen years old this year. My surname is Zhou. Cao Pinnan's mother immediately introduced.

Zhang Ying then introduced Su Shanyun and herself to them.

Then the four of them sat down.

Snacks and hot tea were served one after another.

Cao Pinnan and Zhou sat opposite Su Shanyun and Zhang Ying, and after the four of them sat down, Su Shanyun immediately felt that the eyes of the two people opposite looked at her in unison.

I have long heard that the eldest lady of Su Mansion is beautiful, and now that she has to see a real person, she feels like seeing a fairy, Cao Pinnan's heart is very happy, and a smile gradually appears on her face.

Zhou saw his situation and knew that he was very satisfied, and his heart suddenly blossomed. But after all, some words were embarrassed to say in person at once, so Zhou began to chat with Zhang Ying.

She wanted to give Cao Pinnan and Su Shanyun a chance to talk alone, so she said, "You young people may not like to listen to us chat, why don't you go to the bow or stern of the boat to see the scenery." ”

Cao Pinnan immediately got up and invited Su Shanyun, Su Shanyun had a bad impression of him, but he really didn't feel excited, so he didn't want to go out, so he said softly: "I'm a little afraid of seasickness, so it's better to sit inside." ”

"Okay, okay, there's a little hall over there, you can go and walk there." Zhou said again.

Now she was embarrassed to refuse, so Su Shanyun had no choice but to follow Cao Pinnan to the small hall in the boat.

This small hall is located close to the stern of the boat and is surrounded by a railing so that guests can lean against the railing to enjoy the view.

Cao Pinnan and Su Shanyun stood side by side in front of the railing.

"I've heard of Miss Su's reputation for a long time, and it's really a blessing to see her today!" Cao Pinnan took the initiative to speak.

After all, he was sixteen years old, and he already knew how to pursue the woman he wanted.

But Su Shanyun already knew it at a glance - although there was nothing wrong with him, he was not someone who could attract her.

There are many docile and elegant young men like him, and there is nothing special about it.

Even if his family has a bit of a family background and the door style is good, but so what?

If you don't feel it, you don't feel it, and if you can't move your heart, you can't move your heart.

But this is exactly what she wants, anyway, she doesn't want to settle on someone so early, and the other party can't attract her.

"Cao Gongzi has an overreputation!" Su Shanyun replied simply.

Do you want to politely explain your thoughts to him? She was a little hesitant.

Because of the fact that Li He committed suicide because of her refusal in the previous life, she is now very sensitive to this kind of thing. She thought about it for a while, and thought it would be better for the elders to tell her.

First, it at least proves that the elders also agree with her opinion, and secondly, it also saves the embarrassment of the two sides talking face-to-face.

So she has made up her mind, and her attitude towards him is only respect.

Cao Pinnan thought that she was shy because she had little contact with the opposite sex, so she took the initiative to talk about the books he was reading now and his daily life.

Su Shanyun just listened quietly, and occasionally smiled and said, "Gongzi Cao is amazing!" ”

As soon as he heard Su Shanyun praise him, he was happy, and his tone of voice was also a lot more eager.

Su Shanyun secretly complained in her heart - she just wanted to go back early.

Zhang Ying and Zhou, who were drinking tea and chatting on the other side, also cast their eyes on Cao Pinnan and Su Shanyun from time to time.

Zhang Ying was already keenly aware of Su Shanyun's intentions.

And Zhou didn't realize it, and looked at the two people not far away with a smile, feeling that they were a good match.

In order not to continue to waste time, Zhang Yingti said, "Why don't we go for a walk on the shore?" ”

"It's good to move around." Zhou hurriedly responded, while calling Xiao Er to inform Cao Pinnan and Su Shanyun.

The four of them got off the painting boat and walked slowly on the long street of Daqing Garden.

"Do you want to guess the lantern riddle?" Cao Pinnan asked Su Shanyun.

Su Shanyun shook her head.

"Miss Su is so shy!" Zhou said with a smile.

"In front of people she doesn't know well, she is like this, and she has to know each other for a long time before she dares to relax." Zhang Ying answered.

"Sure enough, everyone is beautiful, and they are so reserved!" Zhou said while looking Su Shanyun up and down.

Su Shanyun smiled silently.

The four of them were walking when they saw someone walking towards them on one side.

When the people approached, the four of them found out that it was Mrs. Zuo and her son Liao Zhongfang from the family next door to Su Mansion.

Mrs. Zuo stepped forward with a smile and said, "What a coincidence, I didn't expect us to meet here, where are you going?" While asking, he looked at Su Shanyun and Cao Pinnan.

"Shanyun and I came out to see the Lantern Festival, and we didn't want to meet Mrs. Zhou and her son-in-law, so we took a walk together." Zhang Ying replied with a smile.

"My son and I also happened to come out to see the Lantern Festival, why don't we join us?" Mrs. Zuo asked with a smile on her face.

That Liao Zhongfang was already staring straight at Su Shanyun with both eyes.

Such a beautiful girl, as long as you look at it, you will feel that this life is in vain! Liao Zhongfang sighed in his heart. But when he found out that Cao Pinnan's gaze always fell on Su Shanyun's body intentionally or unintentionally, it was a little uncomfortable.

In order to show that his relationship with Su Shanyun was not ordinary, Liao Zhongfang walked up to Su Shanyun and asked with a smile: "Miss Su has painted a picture of a lady recently?" I think your picture of a lady is very beautiful. ”

He deliberately said such things on such an occasion.

Su Shanyun was very angry.

She raised her eyes and glanced at Cao Pinnan, and found that the latter's face had also changed slightly, so Su Shanyun replied: "Qinqi, calligraphy and painting are the daily compulsory content of the girl, so I don't dare to be lazy." ”

"Miss Su is really hardworking, and every time I go to Su Mansion, it is rare to see her." Mrs. Zuo said with a smile.

This time it was Zhou's turn to look not very good.

Seeing this scene, Zhang Ying hurriedly said: "Mrs. Zuo, I just happened to have some personal things to talk about with Mrs. Zhou today, or let's talk about it another day." With that, he took Zhou's hand and walked forward.

Seeing this, Su Shanyun and Cao Pinnan also hurriedly followed.

Mrs. Zuo looked at the backs of Su Shanyun and Cao Pinnan, and her heart was like drinking a bowl of vinegar, and after pinching the handkerchief in her hand fiercely, she said to Liao Zhongfang: "Let's go, we will follow them from afar." ”
