Chapter 239: It's Time to Think About Family Affairs
She said so, Gu Mingyuan naturally couldn't ask for it, and after nodding in response, he walked in first.
The small restaurant had a small faΓ§ade, and there were five or six tables in it, and it was a young woman, of medium stature, with a kind smile on her chubby face, who led them to their places with quick hands and feet, and went to the back kitchen to report the name of the dish.
Not long after, a dark-skinned young man came out with a tray and said with a smile: "A few guest officers use it slowly." β
There was a bowl of Lantern Festival in front of the four of them, a few signature dishes of the store were placed on the table, and a pot of the store's own wine was also placed.
Because it was fruit wine, after pouring it out, the aroma was so fragrant that even Qin Hongyao couldn't help but light up in her eyes.
Originally, this wine was something that Ning An was about to drink when he smelled it, but in the end, even Qin Hongyao got a cup.
It's a pity that her alcohol consumption is too bad, but after a glass of wine, her face is dyed red. The little woman who was busy serving food to others also took the time to smile and said: "Guests can be leisurely, our fruit wine has a lot of energy, and the little girl should drink less." But don't worry, this wine will not hurt your body, at most you will get drunk faster. β
As she spoke, she smiled and served a pot of tea, and said, "Blame me for not greeting me well, take a sip of tea to relieve the bar." β
Qin Huaiyu smiled and thanked her, and let Qin Hongyao drink a cup of tea, so she was not allowed to drink it again.
But the wine tasted so good that she couldn't help but drink it herself.
Gu Mingyuan raised his eyes and glanced at her, with a conniving smile on his lips, but he felt that he was also a little drunk.
When they had eaten and drunk enough, and had finished the meal, they got up and left.
At this time, it was approaching, and the pedestrians on the street were becoming more and more scarce, and it only took a moment to reach the front of the house in a carriage.
That wine is not only easy to get on, but also has a lot of stamina, Qin Hongyao is young, but after drinking a glass, she is a little drowsy at this time.
When she got out of the carriage, her feet were still a little weak, Ning An quickly helped her, and when she saw her standing firmly, she quickly let go of her hand, and said, "Be careful." β
Qin Hongyao smiled and thanked her, Ning An immediately withdrew her gaze, but she couldn't help it, and secretly glanced at it again.
Qin Huaiyu didn't notice his expression, and after thanking Gu Mingyuan, he took Qin Hongyao back to the house.
At this time, the corner door had been opened, and the mother-in-law hurriedly came up to support the two masters, and after the group entered, the vermilion lacquer door was closed again.
It wasn't until the footsteps inside couldn't be heard that Gu Mingyuan got into the carriage and said, "Let's go, go home." β
Ning An reluctantly glanced at the closed gate, and then got back into the car and left.
......
Qin Hongyao had never been so comfortable and happy to go out to play like today, plus she had just drunk another glass of wine, so she was a little dizzy at this moment, holding Qin Huaiyu's hand and whispering.
Qin Huaiyu felt the excitement of this girl from her state, so she also let her, although it was late now, but she was not sleepy, so she took the maid to send her back to the room first.
Who knew that Qin Hongyao still refused to let her go, looked at Qin Huaiyu with a pair of eyes, and said with a smile: "Big sister, sit with me for a while." β
Seeing her like this, Qin Huaiyu smiled helplessly, nodded in response, and ordered the maid to make sobering tea, while he sat and talked to her.
Qin Hongyao's face was flushed, and when she spoke, her eyes were rippling, and Qin Huaiyu's heart softened: "Big sister, I'm so happy today." β
Hearing this, Qin Huaiyu touched her head and said softly according to her meaning: "Then I'll take you out to play next time." β
Qin Hongyao wanted to hear this sentence, and after getting the other party's consent, she nodded like a chicken pecking rice: "I know that the big sister is the best!"
Her favorite thing in this house is her big sister!
After a while, the maid made a sobering tea, Qin Huaiyu coaxed her to drink it, Qin Hongyao drank the wine in the end, and she was a little sleepy for a while.
Seeing that she was drowsy, Qin Huaiyu instructed the maid to wait, and he got up and went back to Tingfeng Pavilion.
Jin Shi led the way in front, and Qin Huaiyu followed behind and walked slowly, still holding the lotus lamp in his hand.
It is the Shangyuan Festival, a round of full moon in the sky sprinkled with clear light, the lotus lantern in the hand echoes each other, although the light is weak, but it is also impossible to ignore.
Qin Huaiyu glanced at the lantern from time to time, and remembered the appearance of the person when he handed it over.
The knuckles are slender, and the bamboo handle is pinched with slight force, not thin, but adds a bit of strength.
I don't know if it's because the people lining the lantern are good-looking, or if it's this person, it seems that the lantern is more precious.
Because of this lotus lamp, Qin Huaiyu had some insomnia at night.
She had already laid down, but she got up again, took the lotus lamp on the table outside to the inner room, thought about it, and put it at the head of her bed.
Seeing the lantern that shimmered with light, Qin Huaiyu slowly closed his eyes.
Probably because of this lantern, at night, Qin Huaiyu had a rare good dream, and when she woke up, it was still dark, she looked at the lotus lamp at the head of the bed, and the corners of her lips unconsciously outlined an arc.
......
After the Shangyuan Festival, this year is completely over.
The streets have returned to their usual tranquility, and the social affairs in the town and state mansion have become less and less.
Early this morning, Qin Huaiyu went to say goodbye to Zhuang Yuelan, and saw that her mother's eyes were extremely complicated, both relieved and reluctant, mixed with a little eagerness.
Being looked at by his mother like this, Qin Huaiyu was a little embarrassed, coughed lightly, and asked, "Why does my mother look at me like this?"
But Zhuang Yuelan didn't say anything, just patted her hand and said softly: "My Huaiyu is also a big girl, and my mother is also old." I always feel like you're still in my arms, why are you so big in the blink of an eye?"
It turned out to be a sigh of this, Qin Huaiyu couldn't help but laugh, because he said: "My mother is not old, let's go out together, others must think that this is a sister." β
Hearing this, Zhuang Yuelan was amused by her, and said with a sigh: "Poor girl, where is there such a metaphor?"
It's just that there is a little more smile in his eyes, and even those sadness are dispelled a lot.
Seeing that Zhuang Yuelan didn't say anything in the end, Qin Huaiyu asked Yaoqin Yaozhu after she went out, and the two maids were also confused, so they only said: "Madame, everything is normal recently, and there is nothing to worry about." β
That's weird, why did my mother sigh so decently?
Qin Huaiyu thought about it for a while, but felt that he had forgotten something, and when he walked to the door of Tingfeng Pavilion, he slapped it again and shouted softly: "Why am I so confused, my mother's birthday is coming soon!"
