Chapter 52: The night breeze blows, and the coolness is revealed
Sihan still didn't speak, and followed indifferently, but when he followed Zhan Wenyi into the painting boat, he saw a group of people sitting in the black pressure in the painting boat, and the woman on the main seat, her face was slightly wrinkled, her temples were white, and she looked slightly kind, and the rest of the people sitting there, there were slightly older women who were still charming, there were teenage boys and girls, and the one sitting on the edge was young, and there was a five or nine-year-old girl beside her, the girl was dressed in a brocade skirt, and at first glance saw the young emperor in Zhanwenyi's arms, Then he got up and ran, pulled the corner of Zhan Wenyi's clothes and asked, "Brother, you hug Yue'er, hug Yue'er." ”
It was probably Zhan Wenyi who hugged her very often, and when she saw that the young emperor occupied Zhan Wenyi's arms, the girl came anxiously and pulled Zhan Wenyi to hug her back.
Sihan's expression moved slightly, and his eyes swept towards the people present, and the people present also looked at Sihan and the young emperor in surprise and shock.
"This is the family below." Just as this is, Zhan Wenyi turned around, and said with a slightly apologetic voice, his voice sank slightly, and he only said: "It's not going to be a week today." I thought you could use this boat alone for the Festival of Lights, but the family members who usually never participated in the Festival of Lights would also gather on this boat. ”
The respectful voice is still not annoyed or frightened, and there is only a mellow atmosphere like a spring breeze.
I have to say that the women in Kyoto City all admire Zhanwenyi's gentlemanly style, but now that he looks, he is indeed like a gentleman.
Sihan stared at him a few times, pressed his heart, and was about to speak, but before the words could be spoken, the woman sitting on the main seat with gray temples had already spoken out in surprise, "Yi'er, who is this girl?" ”
As soon as these words came out, the women present all echoed, with a secretive smile on their faces, and then swept the round lantern in Sihan's hand and the lantern in Zhan Wenyi's hand, and they all came over, and then they all squeezed their eyes at Zhan Wenyi, "I said Ruyi, no wonder you don't want people to be matchmakers in recent years, and you don't want to pay attention to the girls who take the initiative to visit, it turns out that you already have a heart for Ruyi?" ”
Sihan's pupils shrank suddenly, and deep in his heart, there were also some ripples and fluctuations.
It's a coincidence today, but I went out to visit the Lantern Festival with Zhan Wenyi, but I was repeatedly discussed and misunderstood, I have to say that the vision of these people is really more than a little biased.
"Fifth aunt, don't tease me anymore, this girl and the little boy in my arms are my honored guests." Zhan Wenyi was silent for a moment and spoke warmly.
After speaking, he looked at Sihan with a little apology and helplessness, "It makes you laugh, they are all deep women and children, they have never seen the world, and they have a slight misunderstanding in words and deeds, I hope you will forgive me." ”
Sihan pressed his heart and said in a low voice: "It's just a lantern, don't worry too much." Moreover, since they are deep women and children, they have some identities, so they don't say anything, so as not to scare people. ”
Zhan Wenyi's slightly grateful Chao Sihan nodded slightly.
Sihan naturally looked away, and only said, "It's a bit troublesome to find the painting boat again." Otherwise, when this painting boat goes to the center of the lake, after my young brother finishes putting the lanterns, we will not bother Xu Gongzi's family and leave on our own. ”
Zhan Wenyi hurriedly said: "Today's family is on the side, the hospitality is not good, it is rare that you are generous and not disliked, if you and the little son want to travel again in the future, I will do my best to arrange it for you." ”
As soon as these words fell, seeing Sihan nodding indifferently, he changed his words and said slowly: "There are many families here, but the second floor is empty. Come with me to the second floor. ”
After speaking, he didn't delay any longer, just said a few words to the person who was seated, and then walked around the little girl in front of him, hugged the young emperor and walked towards the stairs not far away.
When I went up to the second floor, I saw that the second floor was really empty, but when I looked at it, I could see the entire East Lake.
Zhan Wenyi put the young emperor down and placed him on a bamboo chair.
The young emperor couldn't sit still, so he immediately got up and ran to the railing, turned his head and smiled happily at Sihan, "Sister, there are a lot of lanterns in this lake." ”
As he spoke, he turned his eyes to look at Zhan Wenyi, and only said, "The Huangfu family is extremely rich?" ”
Zhan Wenyi raised the corners of his eyes, smiled slightly, and didn't know how to reply appropriately.
The corners of Sihan's mouth stiffened slightly, and then he said slowly to the young emperor: "It's windy by the railing, if Wei'er is cold, come and sit down." ”
The young emperor hurriedly shook his head at Sihan, "Wei'er is not cold. ”
After speaking, he held the lantern in his hand outside the railing and let the lantern shake outside the railing.
At this time, the huge painting boat also began to slowly move towards the center of the lake.
The night breeze is blowing, and the coolness is fully revealed.
Sihan sat on the bamboo chair, but it was rare to relax, but at this moment, Zhan Wenyi said slowly: "Today, the eldest princess has not announced her identity, and she has not shocked Weichen's family, but thank you." ”
Sihan said lightly: "Deep women and children, it is not common for outsiders to be outsiders, and it is good that the palace does not announce their identities." What's more, tonight is a micro-service, the more low-key, the better. ”
Zhan Wenyi nodded, smiled more and more gently at Sihan, and then his expression moved slightly, and he said slowly: "The eldest princess is really lenient and benevolent, and it is indeed a blessing for Tanglin to have you." ”
Sihan looked at him indifferently, "The emperor has also won the award." ”
As soon as these words fell, Sihan didn't want to say much, and when he lowered his eyes, there was already a family member who came up with tea.
Sihan raised his eyes and glanced at the family, only to see that the family was slightly tall, and when he came up, he was also full of respect, and his eyes did not squint, but after the family Ding put down the teacup, he did not leave immediately, but respectfully handed something to Sihan, and only said: "Girl, this is a gift from my old lady to you, yes, be sure to let the girl accept it." ”
Sihan was slightly stunned, and when he lowered his eyes, he saw that the little guy was holding a brocade box in his hand.
The corner of her eye was slightly raised, and she didn't reach out to pick it up, but just turned her eyes to look at Zhan Wenyi.
Zhan Wenyi's face was also slightly helpless, and Chao Sihan explained: "My mother does have the habit of giving gifts to strangers, just for care and blessings. The contents of this brocade box are not valuable, just ordinary thoughts, I hope you can accept them. ”
Is it?
The women and children on the first floor all misunderstood her relationship with Zhan Wenyi, and if they accepted a gift from Zhan Wenyi's mother at this time, wouldn't it be even more misleading to others, thus causing unnecessary interference?
Sihan was silent for a moment before he pressed his heart and said in a low voice: "Xu Gongzi's mother is simple and kind, but I really can't accept her gift." ”
Zhan Wenyi said slowly: "This gift is just my mother's heart, and it is not a precious thing. In addition, there are many strangers who have received gifts from your mother, if you don't accept them this time, you may make your mother more concerned, and even bother to blame yourself, blaming the gift for not letting you like it. Compensation"
Sihan frowned slightly.
At this moment, the young emperor who was playing with the lanterns on the railing suddenly turned around, and smiled brightly at Sihan, "Sister, the emperor said that he could accept it, so take it." Wei'er thinks that the emperor's family are all good people. ”
Good.
Hearing this, Sihan really didn't dare to judge his young brother. It's just that although she can't say that Zhan Wenyi's family is not good, her younger brother is so casual in judging whether a person is good or bad, but it is really casual.
Probably, the heart is kind, so everyone is regarded as good, and it is no wonder that even a femme fatale like Concubine Shu can be as close as his younger brother.
At this point, Sihan's heart sank slightly.
At this moment, Zhan Wenyi opened his mouth gently and elegantly again, "Eldest princess, take it, and open it again to see what it is." ”
Sihan raised his eyes and glanced at him, then said no more, just stared at the box in front of him for a moment, and then finally stretched out his hand and took the brocade box.
The little guy suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, and his slightly nervous face also relaxed, and then began to bend down to say goodbye, and after Zhan Wenyi nodded, he hurriedly turned around and went downstairs.
At this time, the night is just right, and the night breeze around slightly carries a little moisture, and when it comes on, it is a little cool.
The painting boats everywhere in the lake are laughing and laughing constantly, and all kinds of sheng flutes are also endless, and the surrounding lake shores have gathered a lot of people holding lamps.
Since the fight against Tanglin almost lost the country, she has never been lively, and now she is in the middle of the experience, in the bottom of her heart, there is no laughter and excitement in the past, only left, distant and melancholy.
"The eldest princess won't open the brocade box and take a look?" At this moment, the lights were dense and the hustle and bustle blended, Zhan Wenyi's elegant and gentle voice rose slightly.
Sihan came back to his senses and did not refuse, his slender fingertips moved slightly, and when he opened the brocade box, he saw that the box was actually a jasper with a red thread.
Sihan's expression moved slightly, and he raised his eyes to look at Zhan Wenyi.
Zhan Wenyi was neither humble nor arrogant, and said calmly: "This jade is not a priceless jade, just an ordinary jade." When Weichen was a child, he was often weak and sick, and almost died of illness several times, and his mother was distressed, and often went in and out of the mountain temple to pray for Weichen, and each time he would bring the jasper back to send Weichen with the light. Until, when Weichen grew up and was in good health, his mother was still used to returning from the mountain temple with jade, not only to send Weichen, but also to strangers who she felt was very eye-catching. ”
The warm and waveless voice was a little helpless, "My mother is used to this, so the eldest princess should not refuse." This jasper, although not as valuable as the jade in the palace, is also the mother of the family...... A piece of mind. ”
Sihan was slightly relieved.
didn't say anything immediately, just lowered his eyes and stared at Biyu twice, then closed the box, and then said in a low voice: "Xu Gongzi's mother has a heart." After the palace left, he bothered Xu Gongzi to thank him for the palace. ”
"Gifts are not expensive, and the eldest princess doesn't need to be too polite." Zhan Wenyi said slowly.
"Etiquette cannot be abolished. Moreover, with Xu Gongzi's talent and intelligence, he knows that Xu Gongzi's mother must also be a person who knows books and etiquette, and it is natural for the palace to thank her. ”
Zhan Wenyi smiled slightly, and was about to speak, when at this moment, shouts and screams suddenly rose from the surroundings.
Sihan's pupils shrank, and he was busy following the voice, and at this moment, Zhan Wenyi's words suddenly changed his words, and explained slowly, "In the past two years, the Lantern Festival has added some ways to play, not only the poetry club, but also the music club. ”
"Doule?" Sihan raised the corner of his eye.
Zhan Wenyi nodded warmly, and said calmly: "This fighting music party flourished two years ago, although it is obviously a fighting music, but in fact, it is a large-scale blind date. In recent days, if there is a boy or girl who has pulled down his face, he can bring a musical instrument to perform, of course, if he wants to dance, it is also acceptable. It's just that the annual Lantern Festival is attended by ordinary men and women, just like the girls in the deep boudoir, they will not show their heads. ”
Sihan's expression moved slightly, and he said in a low voice: "The Lantern Festival is a new way to play. It's just that those ordinary men and women, just rely on this fight, can they really find the person they want? ”
Zhan Wenyi smiled slightly, "Although Weichen can't be sure, but it's better to use this method to go on a blind date on his own than to introduce one or two sons or girls to the matchmaker." After all, there are many people here, and there are many choices. If both parents are meaningless, they can naturally form a good relationship. ”
