"It was the son's mistake that allowed the Gu family to get into the thieves and disturb his mother's birthday banquet,"

"Fortunately, the assassins have been cleaned up, so the old lady doesn't have to worry,"

"I just didn't leave a single one alive,"

"Mother rest assured, the son will definitely investigate this matter carefully and give his mother an explanation,"

The person who spoke was Gu Rongsheng and the master of the second room of the Gu family, and he always liked to go against Gu Rongsheng, and he was blaming Gu Rongsheng for doing things unfavorably.

Although Gu Rongsheng is the head of the Gu family, he is not the eldest son of the Gu family, but he is a second son, and he is also a concubine, belonging to the third room, and the master of the Gu family is not serious, and he will not take care of these troubles on weekdays, what he loves most is to drink a little wine and sing a little song, but the second room is quite scheming, and he has always been dissatisfied with Gu Rongsheng as a younger brother but became the head of the Gu family, and since then he has been the master of the elder brother.

The Gu family also has a fourth miss, the daughter of the old lady of the Gu family, and the only child who is related by blood, but unfortunately passed away at a young age and died of illness, but there are rumors that the fourth miss of the Gu family, who is very valuable, was actually martyred to death, for a man whose name is unknown now, and it can be regarded as a woman with a strong and strong personality.

When the fourth lady was alive, she was also a figure in Nandu, very heroic, although the brothers fought fiercely with each other, they all loved this little sister very much, and they inherited the fine tradition of the old lady and the old lady of the Gu family, although she was a woman, she was fortunate to be a woman, otherwise the Gu family would definitely be a new world now.

I heard that after the old lady Gu heard the bad news of the fourth lady, she was hit and couldn't afford to get sick, not long after the death of the fourth lady, the old lady also passed away one after another, and handed over the position of the head of the family to Gu Rongsheng before she died, and now it has been many years.

At this time, Ah Qi realized that there was no assassin alive, no wonder they looked at themselves like this at the beginning, they really regarded themselves as an accomplice of the assassins, and this suspicion would not be easily eliminated, otherwise they would not have left themselves in their own rooms, at most they would have rewarded them with some gold and silver or directly returned Ah Qi to live their own lives.

Then most of the people talked about inconsequential details, and soon everyone got up and said hello to the old lady, isn't there a sentence that says, do you have to do a full set of plays?

Then they all dispersed, and when everyone left, their eyes more or less caught a glimpse of Gu Nantian and Ah Qi, maybe Ah Qi thought about it a lot.

After all, Gu Nantian was a threat to them, but Ah Qi was just an insignificant person.

After everyone was gone, Aunt Sun gave Ah Qi a look and motioned for Ah Qi to get up.

"Old lady, I'll help you go back to the house to rest and rest, and let the kitchen bring some food later,"

"Yes,"

In this way, the front hall itself was very lively, and for a while only Ah Qi was left, and of course, there were those maids who performed their own duties, still standing in their own seats, doing their own errands without hearing them.

Ah Qi suddenly felt a little sad, she was... Why did she somehow become a person in the old lady's house, even if she really became a person in the old lady's house, but at this time, someone had to settle her, so what is it? Does she continue to go back to her backyard? Or do you want to wait here and listen to orders?

Ah Qi didn't want to think about it, so she left silently by herself, thinking that if something really happened, someone would always come to her, and she would not be able to leave the Gu Mansion easily.

Who would have thought that it was such a coincidence, and Ah Qi met two enemies, Xiao Jingyi and Gu Nantian.

"Brother Nan," Xiao Jingyi still had a particularly squeezed and shy daughter's posture, pulling Gu Nantian's sleeves and calling Brother Nan sweetly.

Seeing that Gu Nantian was a little indifferent and didn't particularly want to deal with her, Xiao Jingyi also became angry and asked, "Why did Brother Nan choose a name for that maidservant girl?" There was something aggressive in the tone.

Gu Nan's originally polite eyebrows wrinkled slightly.

Ah Qi knows that this princess is really unlikable, not to mention anything else, she really doesn't like Gu Nantian, I'm afraid she will be sad.

Even Ah Qi, a person who has only met Gu Nantian but can't be on one side, no, to be precise, it should be two-sided, and it may be counted as three-sided, in short, Ah Qi, who doesn't know Gu Nantian, knows that Gu Nantian should be a high-minded and arrogant person, he doesn't like to be restrained by others, and he doesn't like to live a life arranged by others and snorting on others, and even looks a little indifferent, but he should be a very scheming person.

Don't say much, he should be a ruthless person, ruthless and heartless, and this is still true to himself, let alone others, let alone himself

Happy people.

"What do you mean by a princess?"

However, Xiao Jingyi has been immersed in her own world, and she didn't notice that Gu Nantian took a step back from her, and she was extremely displeased, "Huai Jin, Huai Jin Ruoyu, is the best meaning, she is the concubine of a big family, and she is rarely named like this, she is just a lowly slave, how can she deserve such a good name?" ”

......

I...

Ah Qi is really unlucky, and he is unlucky wherever he goes, can't it be that your brother Nan is educated, and he is a good name with self-cultivation when he takes it casually? Is vinegar so heavy? What's more, your brother Nan just rejected the old lady's kindness and refused me to enter his house, which can be regarded as guarding you like jade, okay? Wasn't it nice to see you just now?

"How?" Gu Nantian said,

"She is the old lady's favorite person, and she has to be supported by Aunt Sun, if the princess is not happy, she can go to the old lady and say, but it's just a name, the princess likes it, if she doesn't like it, just give up, the princess is golden and jade, she is just a lowly slave and maid, and she can't dirty the princess's eyes," Gu Nantian's face was already a little bad.

When she was in the front hall, Gu Nantian's grandmother shouted intimacy, looking happy, but now Gu Nantian's old lady shouted bluntly and indifferently, without the slightest warmth.

Oh, yes

, cheap.

Gu Nantian is a concubine, even if he is in the Gu family, he is just a concubine, even if he is a big family, but unfortunately as long as he is a concubine, he is no different from a lowly slave.

Xiao Jingyi is a princess, even though her biological mother is not from a high background, but in the end, she is the concubine of His Majesty, and she has to be pitied by Her Majesty since she was a child, and she has been fostered under the queen's knees.

The queen was born in a family and has her own son-in-law, who is also an adult, but His Majesty has been reluctant to make her the crown prince.

Xiao Jingyi's mother was His Majesty's favorite concubine, and died after giving birth to Xiao Jingyi, His Majesty took pity on his daughter and raised her in the Queen's Palace, so that the Queen regarded it as his own, but in the end, the Queen was not favored by His Majesty, it was a well-known thing in the palace, over the years, because Xiao Jingyi had a little pity from His Majesty, she went to the Queen's Palace a few times, so she always treated Xiao Jingyi well, but in the end, people's hearts are separated from the belly, and the queen has always been jealous, and there are even rumors in the palace that the queen forced Xiao Jingyi's biological mother to death, and all this, Xiao Jingyi was kept in the dark, no one mentioned it to her, and she didn't dare to mention it.

Xiao Jingyi's face was really beaten a little hard.

"I... I didn't mean that," Xiao Jingyi realized that she had made a mistake, she was a little panicked, she looked at Gu Nantian with panic in her eyes, she wanted to get closer, but she didn't dare to get close, she just stood in place, wrapped around her fingers, the handkerchief was rolled together, and the joints were white.

"Brother Nan, you know, I didn't mean that, I just..." Xiao Jingyi's life has been pampered by thousands of people, this person, arrogant and willful, is sincere to Gu Nantian after all, she loves her ignorantly, cautious, and doesn't know where to go.

"I'm a little tired, the princess was frightened today, let's go back to the palace to rest early," Gu Nantian was really ruthless, and left without a moment's stay.

"Brother Nan..."

Why are you so cold and detached from me all of a sudden...

You in the past, not like this, what happened?

Xiao Jingyi looked at Gu Nan's departing back, she was about to cry, her big watery eyes were really pitiful. I have to say that Xiao Jingyi, the title of the first beauty in the southern capital, is also well-deserved, and she is indeed a beauty.

Seeing this, the maidservant girl beside her, who had been staying at a distance, stepped forward, "Princess," as if she was trying to comfort her, but she didn't know where to start, and she was afraid of poking her sadness, refuting her face, and making her unhappy.

Ah Qi thought, he should also go, today he is a little irrational, he has already made a lot of excitement back and forth, it is really a bad behavior, Mingzhe to protect himself, Mingzhe to protect himself, Mingzhe to protect himself, is the right way.

Ah Qi planned to leave quietly, but who would have thought that at this time, the maid beside Xiao Jingyi was so sensitive and alert that she suddenly discovered Ah Qi.

"Who's there?" It was the maidservant named Xiang'er who spoke.

Ah Qi was also weak-hearted, and he hid behind the pillar for half a second, and then revealed himself.

"I...

Ah Qi is a little cramped, she is a person who doesn't like to join in the fun, and she is also a person who doesn't like to gossip and listen to gossip, but today it was really her fault, and she was caught red-handed, so she was very embarrassed.

"I'm just passing by,"

This clumsy wording, no one should believe it, even if it is different places and empathy, Ah Qi will not believe it. After all, there is no such coincidence in the world, even if there is, knowing that someone is there, and it is none of your business, you should leave early to avoid it, and you should not listen to one ear but also listen to two ears.

Xiao Jingyi, who was originally just in tears, burst into tears after hearing Ah Qi say this, tears burst out of her eyes, she couldn't hold it back, and her tears began to fall big and big, and Ah Qi was really at a loss, Ah Qi was a casual little girl, really careless, and a real little girl, easy to be soft-hearted, and couldn't see others sad.

"This is the veil you gave me, and now I delight in it," perhaps you need it more than I do.

Ah Qi swears that she really did it out of kindness.

It's just that others don't think so.

Because in the next second, Xiao Jingyi was red-faced and angry, and slapped away Ah Qi's hand holding the handkerchief, knocking Ah Qi's hand aside, and the handkerchief in his hand also fell to the side.

A bright red mark appeared on Ah Qi's hand.

Xiao Jingyi worked very hard, it should be a special grievance, and vented all the grievances she suffered in Gu Nantian today on Ah Qi's body, Ah Qi can also understand, being ignored by her sweetheart like this, and being seen by someone she doesn't like, she feels very embarrassed, and it is normal and understandable to lose her temper.

So, girls don't fall in love with someone easily, especially if they fall in love with someone who doesn't love themselves, because it's very hard, the beginning is hard, the process is hard, and the ending is naturally the same hard.

After all, there are too many poor people in this world, each with their own pitiful, it is unclear, and Xiao Jingyi is already extra lucky compared to many people, and Ah Qi doesn't like this delicate and willful little princess with no one in her eyes, so Ah Qi doesn't plan to stay long, "If the princess dislikes the slave and maid, and feels that the slave and maid are here to be an eyesore, the slave and maid will retire first," After saying that, Ah Qi planned to leave.

Just the next second after Ah Qi turned to leave, he was stopped by Xiao Jingyi, "You stop!" "A roar, or an order, to be precise.

Ah Qi felt very helpless, it seemed that he couldn't escape today, "What else does the princess command?" So he turned around, smiled, and said with a good temperament.

"Today's matter, you are not allowed to say it, and you are not allowed to mention a word to others," it turns out that Xiao Jingyi is afraid of being embarrassed, this is simple, Ah Qi thought to himself, I don't have so much spare time to do these boring things, besides, Ah Qi plans to live longer.

"If I find out, if I hear a little gossip, I will..." Xiao Jingyi was still a little uneasy, but she didn't say anything, what was she going to do,

This appearance is still a little cute.

Ah Qi thought to himself, this little princess, her heart shouldn't be so bad.

Before she could think of what she was going to do with Ah Qi, Ah Qi took the lead in opening her mouth and replied, "Don't worry, princess," Ah Qi said very firmly, very convincingly, she really won't say it, in order to make this princess feel at ease, Ah Qi also added, "The slave didn't see anything, didn't hear anything,"

"So, can the slave and maid retire?" At this moment, Xiao Jingyi should also rest assured.

"Let's go," Xiao Jingyi didn't go to see Ah Qi, but shook her hand impatiently, signaling that Ah Qi could go.

The next second, he was stopped again, "Come back!" ”

Ah Qi sighed, what else is going on?! It's really endless, endless?!

"Is there anything else the princess has to tell the slave?"

"Gu Nantian is the person I like, I don't allow you to like him, and I don't allow you to rob you from me, and you don't deserve it," Xiao Jingyi said.

"Brother Nan, he is just a good person, I can't see others being wronged, look at you pitiful, no name or surname, so I kindly gave you a name, it's just kind, you remember, even if you change a cat and dog on the side of the road, it's the same, did you hear it?!"

is declaring sovereignty with Ah Qi, but will this be a little too early, and a little inexplicable, these are just two people who can't be beaten by eight poles, and they are all shadowless things, your suspicion is too serious, right?!

"......" Ah Qi didn't know what to say, it was a little ridiculous, Ah Qi thought to himself, how charming this Gu Gongzi is, he can make people so obsessed, and he is a little stunned.

Maybe it was Ah Qi's speechlessness for a moment and her hesitation to say something, which made Xiao Jingyi feel that she really had this idea, and with this thought, she stepped forward, stretched out her hand, and unceremoniously pushed Ah Qi, this is really a disaster without reason, a disaster without reason.

Because it was under the corridor of the courtyard, Ah Qi was a little absent-minded, so he didn't pay attention to Xiao Jingyi's sudden approach and sudden stretch of hand, and he didn't expect her to be so hard, but after thinking about it, she was indeed very hard, just like she slapped herself in the morning, and she was also very hard.

In this way, Ah Qi was almost pushed down and turned out of this corridor, looking like he was about to turn his head down, and if it was serious, he might even die.

As for why it was said to be almost, and why it was said to be watching, it was because in the next second, Ah Qi was dragged on his back, pulled back, and accidentally fell into the arms of others.

The person who was fortunate enough to save Ah Qiyi's life is called Gu Siyuan, who is the son of the Gu family's big house, Gu Siyuan.

"She is a human being, she can always be compared to a cat and a dog on the side of the road, and the princess is too bullying,"

"You! You're nosy! ”

"Even if the princess is a golden branch and a noble body, she can't arrange people at will, which makes it difficult for people

Kan, when you say it, it can't help but make people laugh off their big teeth, "Since you think that her status is low, unqualified, and unworthy, but you still want to be involved with her here, isn't it self-surrendering."

"Are you going to protect this little maid?" Xiao Jingyi has always been aggressive, refusing to forgive people, seeing everyone is such a high-minded appearance, it is really irritating, fortunately, the weather has not been hot recently, otherwise it will be even more irritable, Ah Qi suddenly felt that Xiao Jingyi was not cute at all.

"What? This is the Gu family, as the son of the Gu family, can't I still be the master of a servant? Gu Siyuan also looked unrelenting, and he did not lose to Xiao Jingyi at all in terms of momentum.

Ah Qi looked at Gu Siyuan's posture and wondered if it was just for a little maid.

Ah Qi thought that although Gu Siyuan's mother was later helped to the position of wife, the eldest grandmother of the Gu family did not give birth to a son and a half daughter, and Gu Siyuan was also born after his mother got a wife, so he can be regarded as the eldest son of the Gu family who is justified and logical, and he can be regarded as a hard-working person, but it is a pity that his mother was honored because of him, but he was implicated because of his mother.

Lin Nianzhen is not liked by the old lady because of her bad background and very humble, plus she is a person who entered the Gu family by her wrist, so her reputation is not good, and what that group of people value most is her background status and reputation, so it is conceivable that Lin Nianzhen's life in the Gu family is not easy, and her life outside is naturally not easy.

Even if he has the name of a wife in the main house, it is empty, so even Gu Siyuan is tired, few people can look down on him, when mentioning the son of the Gu family, what he often talks about is nothing more than Gu Nantian and Gu Siyuan, one is an inconspicuous concubine, but everyone is precious, and the other is a concubine, but everyone tramples on it, and no one pays attention to it.

Come to think of it, Gu Siyuan has heard a lot of gossip over the years, not to mention that now that Gu Nan has come back again, it should be even more serious, today's old lady's birthday, Gu Siyuan doesn't seem to appear in front of people, and he should feel uncomfortable.

Ah Qi suddenly felt a little distressed about the young master of the Gu family in front of him, God is always so unfair to people, it seems to have given a person a lot of things, but in fact, he has invisibly taken away a lot of things, it seems to have given a person a lot of things, but in fact, he has also lost a lot, such as Gu Siyuan, such as Gu Nantian.

They are all very pitiful people arranged by fate.

Ah Qi felt that this Gu Siyuan was very elegant, and a bit old-fashioned, two completely different types from Gu Nantian, he should be a typical reader, and Gu Nantian was a bit like those Chu Ke in the Red Mansion.

One thing I have to mention is that Ah Qi felt very strange, Ah Qi didn't think it in the past, but now that he thinks about it, he feels that it is, the Gu family is everyone, and it should be in line with the words, the eldest young master of the Gu family is called Gu Siyuan, and the younger brothers and sisters, younger brothers and sisters in the front and back, should be the Sizi generation who follow Gu Siyuan and follow together, and it is indeed the case, for example, Gu Sien

, Gu Si'e and so on, but Gu Nantian is always so abrupt, which is too strange.

Although it is said that the name Gu Nantian has obtained is indeed very good.

Although it is indeed very good to say that the name Gu Nantian has obtained, the beauty is in the city, and Gu Nantian is in the city.

At this time, Ah Qi thought, maybe it was Gu Nantian, I don't know why, when facing Gu Siyuan, Ah Qi suddenly remembered Gu Nantian's face, Ah Qi felt that it should be the best-looking man he had ever seen, even if he was compared in the women's pile, it was also very good-looking.

I heard that Gu Nantian's mother is a rare beauty, which can be described as amazing, which makes many men moved, but unfortunately, Ah Qi is not that lucky to see her, but I heard that she died early, and she was a rare beauty when she was born, but it is not surprising, as for how beautiful it is, the face that takes care of Nantian will be known, Gu Nantian is very good-looking, and her mother is naturally beautiful.

Ah Qi felt very regretful, if only he could see how beautiful that legendary beauty was. Maybe it's because Ah Qi is superficial, Ah Qi always wants to get close to good-looking people, Ah Qi always simply thinks that good-looking people must be very easy to get along with, because they have been blessed since birth and have gotten more things than others.

It's just that Ah Qi is a rough girl, she hasn't seen anything in the world, and she can't see anyone else on weekdays, but today she has seen a lot of people in one day, Ah Qi feels that they are all good-looking, well-dressed, and good-looking, and every single release is a dazzling existence in the crowd, but one day today, when I saw so many people, Ah Qi suddenly felt that his previous thoughts might be wrong, and he may really be like many people said, thinking too simple, and very simple, Even silly.

Ah Qi just patted his head in his heart, and it was a little difficult to understand what he was thinking, and why he suddenly thought about these messy things.

Xiao Jingyi probably didn't expect Gu Siyuan to say such a thing directly in front of her, she was a little speechless and very embarrassed for a while, and after a while, Xiao Jingyi said a sentence, "What about the Gu family?" It's not that she was born from a humble background, but she has a lowly woman as a mother,"

These are Xiao Jingyi's original words.

I have to say that Xiao Jingyi's words are really hurtful, no matter what, you can't talk about other people's mothers like this in front of other people's sons, let alone say it, it can be regarded as Xiao Jingyi's elders, and you shouldn't talk about it casually, after all, we are not them, and we don't know what the past between them is, since it is not something that happened to us, what qualifications do you have to talk about it casually.

Ah Qi obviously noticed the change in Gu Siyuan's expression standing beside her, his expression was very complicated, his whole face turned red all of a sudden, flushed, the green tendons on his neck bulged, he clenched his fists, clenched his fists tightly, Ah Qi even felt that maybe in the next second, Gu Siyuan would go up and fan

Xiao Jingyi slapped her, even though she was a princess, she was still a well-loved princess.

And Xiao Jingyi still had a provocative expression, as if she was feeling proud of winning a game.

After a few seconds, Gu Siyuan let go of his clenched hands, and lowered his head slightly, Ah Qi knew that he gave up, he admitted defeat, and he also bowed his head. Gu Siyuan couldn't do anything, even if she bullied his mother, because that was an indisputable fact. The southern capital, located in the south, is the capital, at the foot of the Son of Heaven, it is lively and extraordinary, attracting people to see, and there is an endless stream.

The annual lantern festival in the southern capital city is even more famous, hosted by the royal family and nobles in person, it is a good couple, it is a very romantic day, the flower is full of moon, full of affection, and it is naturally a Yuan Zhi Festival that everyone wants to get together.

"Childe, are you going to buy lanterns for Princess Jing?"

"Yes,"

The master and servant walked on the street one after the other, the master in white clothes striding meteor in front of him, and the servant in black followed by the black black fir in small steps.

The eyes of the man in white clothes looked at the lantern exhibitions on the left and right from time to time, as if he was concentrating on the selection, and he seemed to be careless.

"Childe is about to marry a wife and start a family, there is a custom in the southern capital, and the lantern to people means affection, is Childe paying attention to Princess Jing?"

On the day of the arrival of the Lantern Festival, buy a lantern, at the time of the fireworks, give it to the beloved, it is a promise of a lifetime, which is customary in the southern capital, and so on the second day, the man will carry the dowry to the woman's house to propose, ask for a beautiful woman, take the lantern as a token, and form a couple's affection.

Everyone said that the men and women who saw each other that day were blessed by the lantern lady, and they could ensure a smooth relationship for a lifetime, and they would never be separated.

"I don't know about this custom," compared to the exuberance of the former, the latter seemed much more indifferent, and there was even a hint of mockery in this indifference.

Everyone knows the customs, how can he not know them?

The implication is that you don't like the "Princess Jing" in his mouth?

"It's not too late for Childe to know now, Princess Jing was born in the royal family, and her mother is the daughter of the Tanglin family, and her talent and appearance are also first-class, she is the first beauty of the ten, and she has the affection to grow up with Childe since childhood, it must be a match, if Childe wants to marry a wife, his subordinates really can't think of a better candidate besides Princess Jing,"

The man in black didn't care about his perfunctory look, he was still chattering vigorously, and his words were full of pride, as if his son-in-law was really the best man in the world, and no one could compare with him.

"You've talked a little more today."

The man in white stopped in front of a lantern stall, the scale of this shop stall is not very large, and the boss should also be an indifferent person, unlike the many noises made by the left and right in order to solicit business, just sit quietly on the stool on the side, looking at the pedestrians on the road, bustling, but can unconsciously lead people forward

In the past, perhaps this boss is the person who understands best, and today's protagonist is the lantern that is carefully carved and can bring people good expectations, not everyone present.

The man in white was fiddling with a small lantern placed in the most conspicuous place, just a simple and small rabbit, but what made people curious and looked at it twice was that the eyes of this little rabbit were not red, but a faint blue with a little purple.

"That's it," he said in a light tone, slowly opening his mouth, intending to pay to take it away.

When the person behind him heard this, he lowered his head and began to take out the money and put it on the shelf of the stall.

"I'm sorry, this boy, this lantern has been set by a girl first," the boss saw this, but slowly stood up and explained.

"Girl?" The man in black who said it was a little surprised, and it was the first time he heard that a woman took the initiative to buy lanterns, which was really strange.

There is a conventional saying in the southern capital, that is, on the day of the Lantern Festival, the woman personally buys the lantern, which is unlucky, so even if she likes it, she will ask her father and brother or any other man in the family to buy the lantern and give it to her, just for an auspicious marriage.

The black-clothed man continued to ask curiously, "Since it has already been decided, why do you want to put it here for people to buy and sell?" Isn't it intentional to entertain people? ”

Listening to his tone, he seemed to be a little dissatisfied, and glanced at the "rabbit" lantern in his son's hand, which was not so special, very ordinary, but seeing the appearance of his son's love for it, he should like it very much.

Since it has been bought, it is still in its original place, and it is still favored by his son-in-law, but he can't buy it home, what does it mean?

"That's right, the girl said that she liked this lantern very much, but at this time she was suffering from no beloved to give it away, so she let the old man keep it, and put it in the most conspicuous place, and when she found her beloved in the future, she would come to pick it up." The boss explained unhurriedly.

This boss is a little old, and his beard is a little gray, if he wasn't wearing plain clothes, others would still think that this is the reincarnation of the old man in the sky and become a mortal.

He is a living by making lanterns, is a small craft, has made countless lanterns, has seen countless people, every year here set up a stall, guarding the lanterns, watching the predecessors and back, coming and going, stop-and-go, lively.

"Your boss is really interesting," the man in black chuckled, looked at his son-in-law on the side and fiddled with the lantern in his hand with a lonely and thoughtful expression, and refused to let go, with a hint of regret in his eyes, he should like it very much.

His son-in-law is indifferent by nature, he is indifferent to everything, and he rarely shows any special reluctance to something, but today is the first time he has seen it, and the object is still a small lantern that seems ordinary to him.

Black-clad black cedar

The man couldn't bear to see his son-in-law like this, so he smiled and asked seriously, "Boss, is there more?" ”

"The lantern is for the beloved girl, since it is a girl on the tip of the heart, how can there be more?" The boss smiled and continued, "Each one of my lanterns is unique, and there is no second superfluous one," the boss replied.

It seems that there is not much, and looking at the stubborn and stubborn appearance of the boss, it seems that his son-in-law will definitely not get the lantern he likes today.

At this time, the boss opened his mouth and said, "If this son really likes it, why don't you ask the girl if she is willing to give her a favor and give it to you, which is also the wish of the word 'get'," and then pointed in the direction of the front, "It is the girl in the red dress and white gauze in front," looking at the boss's appearance should be unbearable.

The man in white turned his head in that direction and saw a graceful back, a red Luo skirt, which looked a little abrupt and dazzling in the crowd, white tulle, and not so bright and eye-catching, elegant and low-key, perhaps destined to look back at the encounter in the dark, the girl also turned around, but it was not in his direction, just for a second, he turned around again, and then disappeared into the bustling crowd.

The light veil covers his face, he can't see his face clearly, only a pair of eyes clearly meet his sight, dotted, clean and pure, there is no bead on his head, but he is exceptionally beautiful and moving.

At the beginning of the lanterns, on the banks of the river around the city, the look back when you turn around is really beautiful.

Many years later, he was also crazy about chasing this shadow with a face that he couldn't see clearly, and he couldn't stop for a long time, thinking about it every day.

"Childe, do you want me to chase her," the man in black whispered to the side.

"No need," the man in white waved his hand, the loneliness in his eyes was very deep, he lowered his head and said softly, "The left and right are not the ones you like, and there are no lanterns you like," as if he was saying to himself, as if he had made up his mind.

"What?" Obviously, the people around him didn't hear, or heard but didn't hear clearly, or heard clearly but couldn't believe it.

"Let's go home early," said the man in white one last glance at the lantern that was still in place, and said to the people around him, then turned and left in the other direction.

On the other side, the woman in blue who was waiting in place saw a familiar figure, and hurriedly greeted her, and when she saw the woman's smile in her eyes, she also asked happily, "Young master, have you seen your favorite lantern?" ”

"Of course," the woman looked proud, very satisfied.

"Is it pretty?" The woman in blue also looked curious and continued to ask.

"Beautiful," the woman nodded, a smile on her face and a star in her eyes.

The woman in blue also nodded, she was happy to play, and then continued, "Young master, it's not early, we should go back, count the distance, it should be dark when it comes, the elder is afraid that he will be blamed,"

"Okay." The woman nodded and replied.

Then the two men held each other's hands and left, laughing all the way.

When they were leaving, fireworks were set off in the sky, which was dazzling and very beautiful.

At night, the woman was lying on the bed, tossing and turning and couldn't sleep, so she chatted with the person who was sleeping on the ground with her and asked, "Lan Xi, do you know that there is a custom in the southern capital?" ”

"What?" The woman who was called "Lan Xi" opened her eyes and replied suspiciously.

"On the Yuan Solstice Festival, the lanterns are given to people, for the sake of men and women," the woman said, fiddling with the tassels on the bed curtain.

"I know this, that's why there were so many pairs of beautiful women on the street just now, lively and lively," Lan Xi said, and replied casually with a sleepy tone.

The woman lying on the bed then asked, "But if two people look at a lantern at the same time, will they still be happy?" Which one is happy? Or is it the happiness of the lantern that the lantern lady blesses its original owner, or the person who got it later? When the woman said this, she frowned, thoughtfully, and tried to recall the appearance of the person in her memory, but she could not remember it.

But no matter what, she hopes that the happiness protected by the lantern lady is the happiness that can make everyone happy, one person's happiness is too lonely, if only she can get the happiness that can be obtained by herself, she will not be happy, and if she is the only one left unhappy, she is also lonely, so she will not be willing.

Lan Xi was a little confused, so he said, "Huh? ”

"Nothing," the woman's tone seemed to suddenly lose interest.
