Chapter VI
Song Yuzhi was afraid of life, and looked at this strange old man a little frightened, hiding behind Mrs. Song. Mrs. Song turned around, half-squatting, put her left hand on Song Yuzhi's shoulder, stared at Song Yuzhi's dumbfounded eyes and said, "Yuzhi, don't be rude, go and say hello to your grandfather."
Song Yuzhi had no choice but to stand up and reluctantly ask Master Lin for peace. Master Lin beckoned Song Yuzhi to go up, and Song Yuzhi slowly moved forward half a step and half a step, and it was a moment to delay. Master Lin took a piece of peach blossom crisp on the table and handed it to Song Yuzhi, Song Yuzhi took the peach blossom crisp and ate it in small bites, lowered his head, and made no sound.
It happened that Master Lin's grandson Lin Zhao passed by the door of Master Lin's house, and Master Lin asked Lin Zhao to come in and lead Song Yuzhi to meet the Lin family's cousins. Lin Yu, the cousin of the Lin family, is two years older than Song Yuzhi, and she is indeed an assertive and caring master. The two of them usually nest in Lin Yu's room, playing with Lin Yu's toys. Not to mention, there are so many novelties in this little girl's room, and they are not the same after playing for more than ten days.
Lin Zhao doesn't look for them on weekdays, after all, a twelve-year-old boy nests at his sisters every day, and when he goes out, he will be said to be addicted to girls' families and has no manhood. At dusk that day, the sky was dyed crimson by the setting sun, like the rouge of a girl's dressing box, and the tired bird was slowly flapping its wings to prepare to return to the nest. The dishes in Lin Mansion are not as important as those in Beijing, and they are mostly local characteristics, but they are palatable, so Song Yuzhi eats more than usual.
Lin Zhao walked into the house quickly, his face was happy, and when he saw that the two were eating, he was not in a hurry to say anything. But Lin Yu now spoke: "Big brother, do you want to come over for dinner together?"
Lin Zhao waved his hand and said, "I just came here after eating at my grandfather's place, I have something to tell you two, and now that you are still eating, you are not in a hurry to say it." Lin Zhao walked around Lin Yu's room for a while, there were no books, they were all little girls' things, and there was a painting of flowers and birds on the wall. This painting is not a masterpiece by a famous artist, but a painting painted by those painters in the bazaar to make a living, and it is not elegant.
After Lin Yu and Song Yuzhi finished eating, Lin Zhao came over and sat on the stool next to them. Lin Yu wiped his mouth with a handkerchief, and then said, "What is the matter with the big brother coming over today?"
Lin Zhao didn't speak, just looked at the two nurses, Lin Yu was very young, very smart, and knew what Lin Zhao meant, so he said to the two nurses: "The two mothers go down first, there is a private conversation between our brothers and sisters, I'm afraid it's not good." Now that Lin Yu has spoken, the two nurses have also gone down, and there are only three brothers and sisters left in the house.
Lin Zhao beckoned and motioned for them to lean their heads over, Lin Zhao also leaned over and said in his ear: "There will be a lantern festival tomorrow, I told my grandfather, you can do without a nurse, but you must bring two little girls." I thought, there will always be a little tail to follow with the two little guys, and it will be a bit of a hindrance, so I will have to wait until there are many people to get rid of it. With that, he retreated.
Lin Yu and Song Yuzhi also retreated, and were on the stool, Lin Yu nodded: "What the eldest brother said is that tomorrow will be according to the eldest brother." Song Yuzhi was just in a daze, a five-year-old child who had never gone out, and he didn't know what his cousin was muttering, just sitting quietly and not talking.
The next day at dusk, the night will be dark, the lights are on, the street begins to be lively, there are performers, there are lanterns, there are also some trinkets, if you put some firecrackers, the bento is no different from the New Year. Master Lin was afraid that the children would be naughty, so he assigned two of the most powerful little guys around him to follow.
The two little guys followed closely, and they didn't get rid of the little guy after looking for two or three chances. However, Lin Yu bought a lot of things, which were not expensive, but a lot. And these things are nothing for two strong men.
When Lin Yu was in the house, she heard from her nurse that there was an old man in Qiaotou, who made exquisite lanterns and was lightweight, so she asked Lin Zhao to take her to Qiaotou to buy lanterns.
