Yue Qianqiu went downstairs to listen to the shopkeeper say that Mrs. Yue and Mrs. Yue came together, and there was a young man who called the little aunt with Nuo Nuo, so he hurried up first, and didn't want to be pounced on by his sister before he stood firm on the second floor, so he hurriedly picked up the person, and then found that in addition to the eldest lady and Princess Ping'an, there was a strange woman in her early forties who was looking at herself with a smile.

Because he was in a hurry, he didn't ask any other guests on the second floor, but in the face of this posture, he knew that it was a familiar relative and friend at home, so he had to walk forward with Nuno in his arms. At this time, Yue Xiuyi immediately preemptively introduced: "Uncle Jiu, this is Mrs. Yu Xiang." ”

Knowing that it was Yu Jianzhong's wife, Yue Qianqiu immediately put Nuo Nuo on the ground, and then smiled and said hello: "I just met Yu Xiang in the Xuandao Hall today, I didn't expect to meet Mrs. here, what a coincidence." Grandpa was still talking to his mother before, and when the festival is over, please come to the house with Mrs. Ye Xiang as guests. ”

Mrs. Xie saw Nuo pulling the corner of Yue Qianqiu's clothes, the brothers and sisters looked like they were relatives, and the fourth wife of the Yue family who saw the Yue family for the first time was pulling the eldest lady and whispering, she was naturally polite to all kinds of entertainment, and then smiled again: "It is indeed fate to enjoy the lanterns during the Lantern Festival, and I don't have any meeting gifts, these three purses are given to you for an auspicious picture." ”

Yuexiu saw that the servant woman of the Yu family on the side had already sent a tray, on which were three carefully crafted purses, and she was about to excuse herself, but Mrs. Xie personally gave them one by one, and Yue Qianqiu even smiled unceremoniously and said that the elder did not dare to resign, and even accepted Nuo Nuo. So, he, the youngest junior, could only accept it obediently, but he was a little worried that his grandmother was unprepared.

But the next moment, the eldest lady said with a smile: "The meeting gift can't only be received by our children, my fourth brother and sister and I haven't met a few young ladies of the Yu family yet, so let's go with my wife to meet them first." As for Qianqiu, there are many young people, let them go upstairs to make trouble. ”

Realizing that the eldest lady took the initiative to pull the fourth uncle and grandmother to see people, she must have a plan in her heart, and Yue Xiuyi, as a grandson, was finally relieved. But when the eldest lady pushed him to take Nuo Nuo and Yue Qianqiu up to the third floor, he thought of another question.

Although he knew a lot of people in the Wuying Pavilion, he ...... He is good at martial arts, he is good at writing, and there is no common language!

Mrs. Xie didn't have much interest in the reckless teenagers and girls in the Wuying Pavilion, and she didn't plan to marry the younger generation of Yuefu, so she naturally had no opinion on the eldest lady's instructions, seeing that the Yue family and her party had disappeared from sight, she saw that no one else came up at the staircase, and knew that they were waiting for them to prepare here, so she had to immediately order the servant to change the barrier into a fence, and tightly fence the box on her side.

After inviting the eldest lady and Princess Ping'an to sit down, she heard the footsteps on the stairs outside, whether light or heavy, and there were dozens of people, she knew why the Yue family would charter the entire third floor - obviously because of so many guests!

Although the young people didn't make any noise when they went upstairs, after they reached the third floor, the voices that had just been suppressed because they knew that there were many female dependents on the second floor were completely released. A large number of people ran to the window. Although I saw the colorful lights everywhere when I came up from the street, I couldn't tell the difference between the crowds, and now I occupied a high place, and I don't know how many people cheered and marveled at it.

But some people are still worried about Yue Qianqiu's promise, and directly surround the bigger boss. Song Pujia crossed her waist and asked, "When you deceived everyone to arrest Liu Guofeng before, you promised us that where is the lantern tower specially built for us?" ”

Yue Qianqiu saw that many people by the window turned their heads to look at him, so he said with a smile: "Far away in the sky, close in front of you...... Nono, go, go to the window and set off a fireworks. ”

Nuno happily took over the task, and reflexively went over to ask An Renqing for fireworks and flints. Said to be fireworks, in fact, it was just a child's play, be careful of the cold smoke that would not burn, and after she lit it, she waved the long smoke with sparks in both hands in the window, and a moment later, a originally black lamp tower facing Chaoyun Tower suddenly lit up layer by layer.

As the colorful lights lit up one by one, Nuno was the first to shout: "Look, that's Brother Qianqiu!" ”

Her cry seemed to kick off the chirping, and everyone who could see clearly what was in the center of the suddenly lit light tower had their own new discoveries. Some shouted that it was mine, some shouted that it was Sect Master Zhou's, and some shouted that it was not like ours at all...... But no matter what, in the chaos of the commotion, everyone thinks that this lamp tower is really chic.

Who would have thought that there would be a family portrait of everyone in the Wuying Pavilion?

Only Zhou Jiyue stared at the few big characters shining on the top lantern, and finally said to Yue Qianqiu angrily and funny: "This is your unexpected surprise?" After the portrait is painted according to our appearance, it is okay to decorate the market with colored lanterns, and it is still written on it, and the heroes of the Wuying Pavilion will wish everyone a happy Lantern Festival...... What the hell is this? ”

I would like to have a sculpture, at least a paper figure or something, but the former is taboo, the latter is unlucky, and I can only come up with the idea of inviting someone to draw a "group photo" as a family photo.

Because to ensure unexpected surprises, you can't be a model, you can only have a freehand, a little richer, and finally decorate the festive lights. In order to ensure the effect of the night, I also deliberately made people do a thick ink treatment.

As for this Lantern Festival happiness, isn't it a gimmick by the way?

Yue Qianqiu shrugged at Zhou Jiyue as if he was aggrieved, but then he found that everyone was giggling and finding faults, but they all seemed to be quite satisfied with this different kind of lamphouse. At that moment, he said to Zhou Jiyue with his eyebrows fluttering: "What does it matter, I am in the school, I am worried about the world, we are not at this level now, then I wish Jinling a happy Lantern Festival!" ”

There was laughter and laughter upstairs, and the ladies who were watching the lights downstairs naturally did not ignore such a strange lamphouse. Just after seeing the young ladies of the Yu family, the eldest lady and Princess Ping'an gave a meeting gift, the reaction at this moment is completely different, the eldest lady was stunned and then held her forehead and smiled bitterly, Princess Ping'an forgot all her demeanor and appearance, and sat on the couch and smiled.

"This kid, no wonder his father said that he had a lot of ghost ideas all day long, and he actually came to such a hand on this street! Did he want so many people in Jinling City to remember their faces? No, it's not easy to recognize people by that portrait, and I really doubt that the children upstairs can recognize themselves! Don't talk about others, the girls are too ugly to be painted, and they can't beat him! ”

Mrs. Xie already knew what kind of person Yue Qianqiu was—if she was a good match, as for the Yu family and a certain young master who had a hard time with a young master, she brushed her sleeves and left? So, instead, she paid more attention to Princess Ping'an. Seeing that she dared to speak and laugh, she didn't smile like the daughter of the family, but just now she saw her walking, and she couldn't move her skirt, and she was a little unsure about her origin.

Although there are many rules in the Yu family in Jiangling, several young ladies of the Yu family can come out to see the lanterns every year, and from time to time the family will also get the lanterns rewarded by the palace, so it can be said that they have seen a lot of all kinds of exquisite things. Therefore, they all feel novel about the lantern tower outside the window, because it is not so much a lantern tower as a painting decorated with lanterns.

As rumored, the ninth prince of the Yue family is really an interesting person!

Although she was facing the prime minister's family, Princess Ping'an didn't come out today to entertain people, and after sitting for a while, she gently bumped the eldest lady with her elbow. Of course, the eldest lady understood her concern for her children, so she smiled and said, "Although there are many people on top, but in the end, Qianqiu invited the fourth brother and sister and me to come out to see the lantern, and we should also go up." Another day, when the lady is free, I will invite you and a few young ladies to the house. ”

Princess Ping'an followed the words of the eldest lady and said a few polite words, and then followed the sister-in-law who got along best with her after arriving at the Yue family to get up and leave. When she went up the stairs to the third floor, she only heard the noise everywhere, and the noise was as loud as a vegetable market. However, she, the emperor of Beiyan, who has been accustomed to a quiet atmosphere since she was a child, feels as comfortable as a fish returning to the sea.

If it weren't for her poor health and frequent illness, she also loved to laugh and make trouble, how could she like to be quiet?

The last time Princess Ping'an entertained these teenagers at home, so when she appeared at this time, she smiled and had a cordial attitude, and everyone was naturally less restrained and more close. Even the eldest lady who didn't know how many people were in awe of the Yue family in the past seemed to be very kind at this time, and for a while, the addition of their concubines did not affect the atmosphere at all.

And Yue Qianqiu took advantage of the situation to pull Yue Xiuyi aside and asked quietly: "Did the second aunt and the third aunt come today?" ”

Of course he won't invite those two, Princess Ping'an is also a person who likes and dislikes things, and she definitely doesn't want to invite people she doesn't like to spend the festival together, but if she wants to come to the eldest lady to do everything she can, at least she must have called the second and third wives.

Sure enough, Yue Xiuyi hesitated slightly, and then said in a low voice: "Grandmother and fourth uncle and grandmother said that after they came out to see the lights at night, they personally went to invite the second uncle and grandmother and the third uncle and grandmother, but coincidentally, they all went out before grandmother went to invite." ”

Yue Qianqiu believed that the second wife and the third wife also knew that the fourth room respected them from top to bottom - this respect was still for the sake of seniority, for the sake of the old lady Yue - so he thought that the two of them were quite knowledgeable, and he didn't pay too much attention to it when he smiled.

However, he just wanted to tell Yue Xiuyi to take it easy and eat and play casually, but he heard Yue Xiuyi's deep voice that wanted to speak and stopped: "Ninth Uncle, the matter of the fourth uncle's grandmother...... Are you going to keep it a secret? ”

It was about Princess Ping'an, Yue Qianqiu was slightly stunned, and then touched Yue Xiuyi's head with a smile: "Yes, it seems that the eldest aunt is right not to hide some things from you, you actually think so far-reaching." Don't worry, everyone knows in their hearts, no one wants to hide it for decades, but now it can't be done, you have to cover it tightly. ”

Yuexiu suddenly took a step back, ashamed and annoyed. I'm as old as you, what the hell do you look like an elder!

When the uncles and nephews of the Yue family were whispering, in the private rooms on the second floor, there were also many people talking about the Yue family's concubines, especially Yue Qianqiu's adoptive mother.

Thanks to Yue Qianqiu's reputation over the years, the blessing of "like the sky", the four rooms of the Yue family can be said to be well known, from the divorce of Yue Xiaosi back then, to the return of his daughter more than a year ago, and then to the wife who married without telling him is admitted by the old lady Yue to enter the house, and I don't know how many people have secretly arranged that the Yue family nouveau riche has no tutor.

But at this moment, Mrs. Xie thought about her first impression when she first met the fourth wife, and she only felt that people had both the innocence of an unmarried girl and the gentleness and loveliness of a married woman, but she had realized that what was even more rare was the other party's level-headed eyes - even if she was the main mother of the Jiangling Yu family, the prime minister's wife, but in the eyes of others, she seemed to be just like an ordinary person.

Such a daughter who is by no means raised by an idle family will casually choose to live with a gentleman who runs away for the rest of her life, just like the rumors, and is she willing to accept Yue Qianqiu, an adopted son whose background is a mystery? She could see the familiar and intimate appearance of the mother and son just now, at least she didn't see the slightest reluctance on Yue Qianqiu's face.

"Mother, look, there are a lot of people watching the excitement under the lamp tower!"

Awakened by the voice of her youngest daughter, Mrs. Xie looked out and saw that there were indeed many people pointing at the bottom of the strange lamp tower in the Wuying Pavilion. I don't know who took the lead, but for a while it was thunderous, even if they sat on the second floor like this, they could hear the applause and praise of many people. Of these, there is one that is clearly the loudest.

"What grandstanding? The first is not to praise the saints, the other is not to welcome those who are big officials, nor is it a cliché such as national peace and security, but to wish the Jinling father and old people a happy Lantern Festival...... If you want me to say, these young people in Wuyingguan have a heart! ”

Hearing this, Mrs. Xie instantly realized that her subordinates had quarreled over this trivial matter, and she couldn't help but take a light breath. However, at this moment, she only heard a louder voice from below.

"There's a butt heart! That Yue Qianqiu's own background is unknown, but he is deceived and flattered, and the daughter-in-law of the Yue family's four rooms is not good! What Quwo Liu's daughter is simply an impostor! The real young lady of Quwo Liu's family has long since died, and the Yue family is crooked at the top and crooked at the bottom, and the family is all hidden and exposed...... Yes! ”

Mrs. Xie found that the voice seemed to be suddenly cut off, even if she was the most disciplined person on weekdays, she also got up at this time, rushed to the window with an arrow, and looked out with both hands on the windowsill, but vaguely saw someone grabbing the collar of a big man below, and actually slapped two heavy slaps. Her eyesight was not good, but the young girl with excellent eyesight on the side exclaimed.

"Mother, it's Yue Jiu Gongzi!"

When he jumped out of the window, Yue Qianqiu had already locked on the person who was making a big fuss, and he rushed straight to the crowd with the downward trend, and even borrowed force on the shoulder of someone who didn't know who it was, so he smoothly grabbed the guy who wanted to run when he saw the situation.

After the two big-eared scrapers were rewarded, he sneered: "I didn't expect that there are still people in Jinling City who dare to step on my Yue family's head to seek fame, don't you think that I am easy to bully?" ”
