The fifteenth day of the first lunar month is not only to see the lanterns, but also to walk the custom of all kinds of diseases. After Shu Chengye won a lantern for each of the children, he took them to Hongqiao. Originally, this kind of thing should be led by the female elders of the family, but the situation of the Shu family is relatively special, the old lady is old, and when this person is crowded, it is really laborious to walk on the bridge. And Xu was detained by the old lady's side and couldn't get close to Shu Manyao, so it could only be Shu Chengye who sent people to the bridge, and then the mother-in-law and maids at home took care of the bridge.

"Big sister, there are so many people." Shu Manyu carried the lantern and said very excitedly, Shu Manjin nodded: "Yes, there are many more people than in Jiangnan, and there is no custom of taking all kinds of diseases in Jiangnan, is this really effective?" ”

"Second girl, this is just a good luck, whether it works or not, that's what happened." The mother-in-law who followed next to her smiled: "The big guy is just joining in the fun." The girl's family only needs to cross the bridge, and the woman's family who wants a child has to touch the door nail after crossing the bridge. The largest gate in the capital is Zhengyang Gate, and at this time of year, Zhengyang Gate is the most lively. ”

Shu Manjin was very surprised: "Zhengyangmen? Isn't that the door of the royal palace? The emperor allows everyone to touch it? ”

"The sage is wise, he is self-promising, and he used to allow people to set up a stall at Zhengyangmen to sell some gadgets, but then there were too many people who went, and the stall collapsed, so the emperor didn't let people set up a stall." The woman said with a smile, and Shu Manjin also praised twice: "The emperor is generous." ”

Shu Manyu didn't like to listen to this, so he dragged Shu Manyao and said, "Big sister, where are we going to find Daddy and Zheming later?" weishenme can only go to women, not men? ”

"Who says men can't go?" Shu Manyao glanced at her with a smile: "Look over there, isn't it a man?" ”

Shu Manyu looked at it and was even more puzzled: "Then why didn't Daddy and Zheming leave?" ”

"There are a lot of people on this bridge, and most of them are women, Zheming is not young, and his background is not bad, although his father is old, he is also a beautiful man, so he can't walk on this bridge." Shu Manyao said in a low voice, and the corners of Xia Xi's mouth twitched next to her--The girl really dares to say it.

Shu Manyu was stunned, and then couldn't help laughing: "Big sister, the reason you said is really, too ......" thought about it and nodded very seriously: "This reason is so good, it must be because of this that Daddy and Zheming can't go on the bridge." However, speaking of which, there are more women on this bridge, if those men have any bad intentions......"

If you catch a girl casually, won't that ruin the girl's reputation?

"You think these people are stupid? There are soldiers on the bridge. Shu Manyao pouted, a man was indecent, at most he took a concubine or something, and if a woman was indecent, then the matter was serious. The former is a rosé incident, and it may be passed on as a beautiful talk, so even if it happens, the soldiers rarely pay attention to it, and the latter is fatal. Therefore, on this bridge, there are also soldiers guarding it, and there are really men who dare to do that, and this soldier is not an idle meal.

Moreover, these fifteen lantern festivals, everywhere are crowded with people, there is really a dare to eat the ambitious leopard, where to do it is not to do it? How could you deliberately choose such a place with strict guards?

Shu Manyao had already asked Li's mother about these things.

Although Hongqiao is the largest bridge in the capital, it is not long, but it is just a stick of incense, and the three sisters are finished. After getting off the bridge, they walked to the place that Shu Chengye said before, Shu Chengye and Shu Zheming took a detour, and the three of them had to wait.

"Ah, there's fireworks over there." Shu Manyu excitedly stretched out his hand to the side, Shu Manjin reached out and pulled her finger: "Don't be surprised, let's quickly find a place, while waiting for Daddy and them, you can also enjoy the fireworks, if you still don't like it, let's set off fireworks at home when we go back." ”

Shu Manyu was about to nod, but his face was a little wrong: "It's a little wrong over there, it seems to be on fire." ”

Shu Manjin and Shu Manyao were stunned, and the two of them quickly turned their heads to look, and saw that there was indeed a fire rising over there, and it seemed to be quite close to them, because they could hear the shouts from there.

"Big sister, what should I do?" Shu Manyu's face was panicked, and he hurriedly grabbed Shu Manyao's arm: "The fire looks very big, and there are so many lanterns on the street, what if it burns here...... Let's go, shall we? ”

Shu Manjin hesitated: "But Daddy said that he was waiting for us here......"

Shu Manyao looked at the restaurant not far away, and they had agreed with Shu Chengye before to have a haode place, which was there. However, Shu Chengye has not yet arrived at this time, and this firelight, presumably Shu Chengye can also see it. If he thought they were in the restaurant, he would have come over. At that time, if no one can be found, Shu Chengye will delay it again, and it will be dangerous.

But if they stayed, in case Shu Chengye thought that they saw the fire and left, and didn't come to find anyone, or the fire spread, the people who stayed were also very dangerous.

"Big sister, why don't you leave the two mothers-in-law to wait here, let's go back quickly?" Shu Manjin also grabbed Shu Manyao's arm, the panic on her face was not as small as Shu Manyu's face, the sisters could still be majestic in the inner house, that was because they knew that no matter how they fought in the inner house, they would not endanger their lives, at most they would be injured or something.

But staying here, if there is an accident, it will be fatal. Before going out, the old lady told them that there were many people at this lantern festival, and they must not let people leave them, and the consequences of various accidents were emphasized several times, and they were scared to death just by being scared.

"Yes, big sister, let the mother-in-law stay and wait for Daddy, and then let the two of them go to greet Daddy, and let Daddy not go this way, it's too dangerous." Shu Manyu also nodded hurriedly, seeing that there were many people squeezing towards this side, Shu Manyu said quickly, stretched out his hand and pulled Shu Manjin and the two of them to retreat.

"Big girl, take the second girl and the third girl back, the slave and the others are waiting for the master here." A mother-in-law who followed beside her also said the same, but Shu Manyao shook her head: "You escort the second sister and the third sister back, I will go there and wait for my father, the fire looks big, but it will definitely not spread to this side, there are water tanks on the road, and every household has water, and there are people from the Nine Gate Admiral Patrol Division helping, this fire can't spread." ”

In the end, it was worried that Shu Chengye's mind had the upper hand, although it was said that one or two mothers-in-law could be left to wait here, but who knows if that mother-in-law would wait with all her heart? In an emergency, who is not thinking about his own life? If there is really an accident, the mother-in-law is just prevaricating, either saying that they didn't wait for the master, or saying that they missed it, and when Shu Chengye really had an accident, what should she do?

Moreover, she saw that although the fire was not far away, it was also separated by several streets, and it was not easy to spread. Besides, there are a lot of people on the street at this time, and if they are busy running for their lives, it is dangerous to follow along, so it is better to stay in the restaurant and wait.

Besides, in her previous life, she hadn't heard of any major fires in the capital, and she thought that this fire would not be too serious.

"Go back quickly, don't delay here, you two, stay here and wait with me." Shu Manyao made up her mind, stretched out her hand and nodded at the two mothers-in-law, and said to the others: "You protect the second girl and the third girl back, if the second girl and the third girl are safe and sound, I will reward you heavily." But if the second girl and the third girl lose a hair, don't blame me for being rude to you, let's go quickly, it's not easy to leave after a while. ”

said, and ordered the other two mothers-in-law: "You stay in the capital all the year round, and you must be very familiar with the roads in the capital, if my father and Zheming don't take the Hongqiao, if they take a detour, which is the nearest road, you think about it is also very clear, now you will go over to greet my father, whether you welcome it or not, I will remember your merits." ”

Shu Manjin looked worried and concerned: "Big sister, you can also go with us, just leave the mother-in-law waiting here, it's too dangerous here, maybe the fire is about to spread, let's go quickly." ”

Shu Manyu was also helping on the side, Shu Manyao shook his head and pushed them: "Let's go, this fire is bigger than just now, if you don't leave, I'm afraid you won't be able to leave for a while." ”

At this moment, there were obviously a lot more people around than just now, and everyone was walking away from the fire in a hurry.

Shu Manjin and Shu Manyu persuaded a few words, seeing that Shu Manyao was very determined to stay, the two of them were really unwilling to delay, and said a few words to Shu Manyao to be careful, so they hurriedly took people away.

Shu Manyao also led the two mothers-in-law to the restaurant, but there were more people around, and she was against the flow of people, and she didn't go far, and the mother-in-law around her was scattered, leaving only a summer eve who was dragging her arm and sticking to her.

"Girl, what can I do?" Xia Xi was also a little frightened, and her voice trembled a little.

Shu Manyao patted her hands, and the two of them squeezed forward with their waists. However, the two of them definitely couldn't squeeze more people, so there was no accident at all, and the two of them were hit and stumbled and fell straight back.

Shu Manyao still knows the danger, in this case, once she falls, she is likely to be stepped on, so she hurriedly dragged the clothes of the person in front of her and tried her best to maintain her balance, but she had a summer night hanging on her body, which was a bit difficult to do.

Seeing that she couldn't hold it anymore, an arm suddenly stretched out next to her, stopped her back and held the person up: "Miss Shu, are you okay?" ”

As soon as Shu Manyao raised his head, he saw that familiar face again, with sharp eyebrows and very handsome eyes. Shu Manyao stood up with the man's arm and asked in surprise, "Why is Young Master Yang here?" Yang Jianbai waved his hand, but did not answer, he put his arms too high in a very regular manner, tried to isolate Shu Manyao from the people around him, and tried not to touch her: "Where is Miss Shu going?" It's dangerous here, so it's best for Miss Shu to find a place to hide. ”
