After freshening up, Zhao Ling climbed onto the couch to read a book, and Xiao Qingmei sat beside him, excitedly talking to him about the Yang family's garden.

"Brother Ling, you should have arrived early. When Mei'er was upstairs, she saw the lanterns lit up one after another, and the people who lit the lamps and cut the candles below walked around, which was very lively. Going down from the upper floor, there are red lanterns all over the eyes, which is particularly beautiful. ”

"Oh? Merle likes to watch big scenes? ”

Lin Qingmei nodded excitedly: "Mei'er rarely goes out to participate in banquets, and it's the first time I've seen such a beautiful one today." ”

Zhao Ling lowered his head and pondered: Xiao Qingmei is stupid, and the Wang family will never take her out for a walk. Old Madam Lin is old, this kind of banquet can't arouse any interest, if it weren't for Yang Xuanwu for her grandson, the old lady would not have taken this trip.

He pinched her cheeks, her cheeks were slightly red from excitement, and he sighed slightly: his little green plum, it was so easy to make her happy.

He asked, "Would you like to see a more beautiful lamp?" Brother Ling can make a lantern festival. ”

"Really? Mei'er wants to see the lantern festival of Yang Yushi's house with many lights, and there are many people walking around below, which is very lively. Xiao Qingmei couldn't hide her excitement, and her beautiful eyes reflected the candlelight, shining.

Zhao Ling was embarrassed: "Oh, I gave Mei'er a lot of things, but Mei'er didn't repay me." ”

When Xiao Qingmei heard this, she lowered her head shyly, and her slender fingers kept twisting: "Brother Ling, but Mei'er is so poor!" Brother Ling gave Mei'er all good things, Mei'er has nothing to repay you. ”

She secretly looked up at him as she spoke, he pretended to be deep and didn't speak, Xiao Qingmei was afraid that he would regret it, so she hurriedly said, "Brother Ling, is Mei'er okay to tell you a story?" tells the story of Mei'er going to the Jade Emperor's birthday banquet, and there are also a lot of lanterns, which are more beautiful than the Yang family. ”

Zhao Ling pretended to be careless with a "hmm", and Xiao Qingmei climbed in front of him, grabbed his arm, as if he was afraid that he would escape, and said in a matter-of-fact manner: "When Mei'er used to be a mountain ghost, one year on the twenty-fifth day of the lunar month, I heard that there was a fairy music on the top of Kunlun Mountain, and the mythical beast in the mountain said that it was the birthday of the Jade Emperor, and the Queen Mother of the West held a banquet for him in Kunlun Mountain to celebrate. Mei'er's heart was itching, and she secretly ran to see it. ”

Xiao Qingmei deliberately paused and asked slowly, "Brother Ling, do you know why it is located in Kunlun Mountain?" ”

Before Zhao Ling could answer, she proudly solved the riddle: "Because everyone wants to eat peaches!" The Queen Mother lives in Kunlun Mountain and has planted a lot! ”

Zhao Ling couldn't help but laugh when he saw her serious and proud look: Xiao Qingmei said it was clear-eyed, but it seemed to be true.

He bowed his head and said, "Mei'er is very interesting, I like it very much." ”

Lin Qingmei was encouraged, and she became more and more happy, she said: "Mei'er was not invited, so she played outside with a few divine beasts, and one of the divine beasts came early and told us a joke." ”

She immediately shook Zhao Ling's arm: "Brother Ling, quickly ask Mei'er what the joke is?" ”

Zhao Ling couldn't help but laugh and cooperated: "What joke did Mei'er hear?" ”

"It's the birthday father-in-law! The birthday father-in-law had a big bag on the top of his head, and the doorman said that he hid the peach in it and did not allow him to enter, and said that no one's head could grow so long. ”

Her childlike words and serious and innocent expression made Zhao Ling feel very interesting, as if she was listening to a childish child's description of her experience.

After the birthday banquet was over, the doorman also withdrew, and Mei'er sneaked into the palace to play. Mei'er saw the Queen Mother leaning against a small low table, carrying a lot of jade on her head, and three blue birds looking for food to feed her. Mei'er was hiding in a very large petal, but a blue bird came to Mei'er's side and took Mei'er in front of the Queen Mother. The queen mother was very angry and said that Mei'er didn't understand the rules and wanted to make Mei'er suffer. ”

After hearing this, Zhao Ling was stunned in his heart, and he had already taken this story as if it was true: "What did the Queen Mother make Mei'er suffer?" ”

Xiao Qingmei smiled sweetly: "The Queen Mother must have forgotten!" She said that she wanted Mei'er to go through the love calamity, and she wanted Mei'er to marry a husband who didn't love her. The rhetoric is full of joy and innocence.

Zhao Ling gently stroked her green silk and muttered, "No, Brother Ling will love Mei'er well." ”
