242. Chapter 242
The folk have always had the custom of making Lantern Festival, and the Lantern Festival is said to be the Qing People's Festival, so the people on the street on this day can be said to be overcrowded, and there are countless people.
Gyeongju City, whether it is a merchant or some family chaebol, will hold some games such as guessing the lantern party, and the big families will directly set up a lantern shed in front of their homes, so that people can guess the lantern riddles, of course, there will be a small lottery if they guess it.
The origin of the family's lantern shed is that a few decades ago, a noble girl in the Marquis of Qingchang Mansion wanted to choose a son-in-law, that is, she built a lantern shed, as long as she guessed all the riddles and was not married, she could ask to marry a noble girl.
With such a successful example, since then, every Lantern Festival, those families will set up a lantern shed, of course, not only to choose a son-in-law, but also to ask for something else.
Governor Song's family also set up a lantern shed this year, and Su Liu and his party also participated with great interest, got a lot of color, and went to the street again.
Lantern Festival is indispensable for lights, walking on the street, the real dizzy, all kinds of lights are dazzling, there are cute animal lights, there are also all kinds of precious eight treasures glazed palace lamps, people can't put it down.
Because it is the Lantern Festival, and it is a good day to enjoy with the people, the curfew time in Fucheng is also two and a half hours later than usual, so this hour is the time when there are the most people.
"Xiaoxiao, Brother Ye, don't go so fast, there are too many people." Chen worriedly told the two small ones, and they didn't dare to look at them more, for fear that the two of them would be lost if they were not careful.
"It's hard to come out, and the two children are sensible, don't hold them back." Chen's words fell, and Cao Kui, who was not far away, heard it, so he turned his head and said with a smile.
He accosted himself coldly, Chen's face flushed, and he didn't know whether he was embarrassed or what, and he didn't reply, just walked forward.
Cao Kui was also stunned, through the light, he saw that Chen's side was slightly red, and he looked a little magnificent, so he couldn't help but open his face and pressed his chest.
No one saw the little awkwardness of the two, Su Xiao and Chen Ye replied that they knew, so they excitedly pointed to the various lanterns and spoke, and Song Ying, who was behind, saw it, sourly, and also sped up her pace to follow, but behind her, there was a string of maids.
Because of the Lantern Festival, Song Fei also came out, and couldn't help Song Ying's pleading, so he also brought her out, and the same goes to Cao Qing'er, Song Xiao went to Beijing after the second year of junior high school because he was missed by the old lady in the family.
As for Su Liu and his party, they were all dispatched, plus the girl's mother-in-law, their group was quite spectacular.
Seeing that Song Ying was chasing Su Xiaotrot, Cao Qing'er, who had been following Song Ying, was a little anxious, in order to please Mrs. Song and behave in front of Song Fei, she automatically took on the errand of taking care of Song Ying.
Now seeing her catching up, Cao Qing'er was afraid that she would be gone, and she was reluctant to leave Song Fei, so she was so contradictory that she scolded Su Xiao half to death in her heart.
"It's okay, there are guards with you, if Cousin Qing'er wants to go and see, it's okay." Song Fei said with a smile.
Cao Qing'er bit her lip and said, "Ying'er doesn't like me to follow, since there are guards to follow, I'll watch her from a distance here." ”
When Su Liu heard this, she showed a sneer, what do you say to take care of, with Song Fei in front, will she let go of this opportunity?
Thinking of this, she looked at Zhong Cainiang, who was following Ning Guang not far away, and suddenly felt a little irritable.
Leaning closer to Cao Mingzhu, she said depressedly: "We really have the same disease." ”
Cao Mingzhu didn't know, looked at the left and right, and also showed a helpless wry smile, and patted her hand to show comfort.
"Brother Ning, look at that palace lamp, it's so beautiful." Zhong Cainiang pointed to the eight-treasure glazed palace lamp hanging out of a restaurant, and looked at Ning Guang with shining eyes.
Ning Guang glanced at it, hummed lightly, and didn't speak.
Zhong Cainiang was disappointed for a while, bit her lip, lowered her head, and was full of unwillingness.
Looking at the people coming and going around her, squeezing around, she got closer and closer to Ning Guang, looked at the people squeezed in front of her, and suddenly thought about it.
"Ouch."
As if she had been hit, Zhong Cainiang fell to Ning Guang's side, Su Liu found out, and immediately hugged Ning Guang's arm and pointed to the sky: "Look, flying saucer." ”
Well, this trick is really low-level and evil, Su Liu himself was thundered, but it still attracted Ning Guang's attention.
And Zhong Cainiang, seeing that she was about to fall to the ground, the guards who followed behind her quickly grabbed it: "Girl, be careful." ”
Ning Guang noticed Zhong Cainiang's strange appearance at this time, and frowned and looked over: "What's the matter?" ”
Zhong Cainiang's face turned crimson, she stood up straight, and wanted to say something, but she suddenly felt a little embarrassed by Su Liu's profound smile and her perceptive eyes.
Su Liu squinted at her, and that look seemed to say, your idea is not enough to see.
"There are people coming and going here, Miss Zhong should be careful to avoid it, don't let some disciples take advantage of the opportunity, then it will be a big loss." Su Liu said coldly, meaning something.
Zhong Cainiang's face was purple, biting her lip, tears filled her eyes.
Ning Guang is not a fool either, thinking of suddenly holding his arm and saying something about flying saucers, and then thinking of Zhong Cainiang's behavior, he suddenly understood something, and his face sank.
Just as he was about to speak, suddenly an exclamation came from the front: "It's water, it's water." ”
With this shout, the crowd suddenly became chaotic.
When I looked over, I saw a fire in front of a shop, thick smoke billowed out, and people fled in all directions in panic, which made the already crowded street even more crowded.
The accident happened just for a moment, Su Liu was just stunned, and was pushed hard, fortunately she was holding Ning Guang's arm, and Ning Guang also pulled her, so she was not separated.
And Zhong Cainiang was miserable, she was overwhelmed by the crowd all of a sudden, and she couldn't even hear the screams.
"Little, Brother Ye."
The moment the push occurred, Chen was pulled by Cao Kui, who was closest to her, and was protected in her arms, her body was soft in shock, and it was easy to settle down, and then she remembered that she Su Xiaothey had walked to the front, and her face turned white immediately.
"Don't worry, they'll be fine." Cao Kui looked at it, the street was full of people, in a mess, and he couldn't tell which one was which, and he had to protect the Chen family, and he didn't know how many feet he was stepped on.
Chen's eyes were dark, and he almost didn't faint, but fortunately, he knew that he couldn't faint at this time, so he pinched himself hard to stay awake.
Su Liu also came back to his senses, grabbed Ning Guang's arm tightly, and said with a pale face: "Ning Guang, Xiaoxiao and Brother Ye are ahead." ”
Ning Guang had a cold face, and when he saw Song Fei protecting Cao Mingzhu and Cao Qing'er, he ordered the guards to come forward to find them, so he took Su Liu and squeezed them over and handed them to Song Fei, and he took advantage of his strength and flew forward by stepping on people's heads.
Song Fei was also in a hurry, saw a guard in the mansion, and hurriedly said, "First escort a few young ladies back to the house." As he spoke, he also followed Ning Guang forward.
"Cousin, cousin." Cao Qing'er was so frightened that her face turned white, and she almost wanted to follow.
Su Liu pulled her and said, "Don't make a mess, let's go." ”
Cao Qing'er shook off her hand and said, "I'm not leaving, I'm going to find Ying'er." ”
Damn, Su Liuhuo is too big, and no matter what her identity is, she immediately yelled: "Who do you think you are?" A heroic woman with martial arts? It's so messy, you can't take care of yourself as a woman, and you're still looking for someone? Don't fucking make a mess for me here, I can't help and I'm dragging my feet, let's go! ”
Cao Mingzhu also persuaded: "Miss Qing'er, we can't help, let's go back first." ”
Cao Qing'er had never heard such a rude scolding since she was a child, she was stunned for a moment, and then her face turned red: "You ......"
Su Liu didn't look at her, and only said to the guard: "She'll be handed over to you, if you can't take it away, you will be knocked out directly!" He took Cao Mingzhu's hand and said, "Let's go." When he had finished speaking, he went to the side,
The fire may not have been big, but now there are no officers and soldiers to organize people to evacuate, and everyone is huddled together, probably not by the fire, but trampled to death.
In modern times, she has never seen the news of such an accident, she doesn't want to be trampled into meat sauce, Cao Qing'er is going to die, so she will go.
Cao Mingzhu also knows that it is powerful, although she is also worried about her father and Song Fei, but in such a situation, it is only by protecting yourself first that you can calm their hearts.
Fortunately, the officers and soldiers arrived soon, organized people to evacuate, and one after another, they also met a few girls and mothers-in-law of the Song Mansion, as well as the family members of the Cao Mansion, and most importantly, Cao Kui half-hugged and half-dragged the Chen family to follow.
Su Liu and the others didn't dare to stay any longer to watch the excitement, so they only went back to the Song Mansion to wait for the news.
Halfway through, the eldest prince of the Song family also personally led people to pick them up, and after hearing Su Liu say that Song Fei went to find Song Ying and others, he asked the guards to send Su Liu and them back to the Song Mansion, and he led people to find them.
In the Song Mansion, Mrs. Song had been waiting for a long time, and Cao Qing'er was the first to step forward and kneel on the ground crying to apologize, saying that she didn't take good care of Song Ying, and by the way, she also gave Su Liu and Cao Mingzhu eye medicine, and then fainted crying.
Su Liu looked at it coldly, and was disdainful in his heart, none of the people in the big family were fuel-efficient lamps, so he said the scene at that time succinctly and clearly.
Mrs. Song knew that Su Xiao and the others hadn't come back yet, and when she saw the worry in Su Liu's eyes, she forced her calm and said, "It's okay, with the guards following, they will all be fine." ”
But Rao is like this, her heart is also pounding, her head is buzzing, just at this moment, the next person came to report that the young grandmother was a little bad, as if she was moving, Mrs. Song immediately weakened, and plunged down.
Cao Mingzhu quickly helped Mrs. Song, and asked the stupid person on the spot to carry the soft sedan chair, and quickly went to ask for a doctor.
The Song Mansion was in a mess, but Cao Mingzhu was like the master in this mansion, ordering it in an orderly manner, and it would not be like a headless fly.
Su Liu nodded again and again, and then looked at Cao Qing'er who fell in the maid's arms, saw that her eyelids moved, her fingers curled, and she couldn't help sneering, telling you to pretend, stealing chickens is not a loss.
When I'm unwell, I can't do anything, and it's only a chapter in a few hours, and everyone is waiting for me~
