Chapter 176: Lotus Lantern Wish
"Yes, we naturally know this, Miss Yang is willing to give this face to cooperate with us, and we are already very happy."
Several people reached an agreement, and the question of rice paper was quickly determined.
After taking them back to the inn, he decided to pack his things, and when he returned tomorrow, Yang Zirui opened his mouth to stay.
"You can wait a few more days and play a few more days."
"No, thank you for your kindness, but we still have a lot of things to deal with, so we won't stay here longer."
Yang Zirui felt a little regretful, and then suddenly remembered.
"Sister Yue'er, Brother Li, tomorrow night is the annual Lotus Festival here, do you want to wait until the Lotus Festival is over before returning? The Lotus Festival is lively. ”
"Lotus Festival?"
"Yes, yes, the Lotus Festival, on that night, people generally don't go to sleep at night, and they won't turn off the lights so early, the whole town is bright, and it's lively, and there are lotus flowers to make a wish!"
Chu Xinyun looked at Yan Qinchang, "Otherwise, let's go back after we finish the Lotus Festival, anyway, it's not in a hurry for a day or two, and I haven't had a Lotus Festival yet, such an interesting festival, we don't have this kind of festival!" ”
"Okay, I'll be with you."
Yan Qinchang looked at Chu Xinyun with a novel face and smiled dotingly.
Yang Zirui watched the interaction between the two, and couldn't help twitching the corners of his mouth, he almost regarded himself as a rival in love, no wonder, this made him very speechless.
In the blink of an eye, it was the day of the Lotus Festival, and in the evening, Yan Qinchang was waiting downstairs for Chu Xinyun, who was late.
He finally got impatient, went upstairs, and as soon as he pushed open the door, he saw Chu Xinyun walking towards him, and his eyes were facing each other.
What month is tonight? It seems that she has been specially dressed, wearing a goose-yellow long skirt, a silver hairpin tied on her head, and a purse tied around her waist.
Chu Xinyun saw that Yan Qinchang had been staring at her, and couldn't help but feel a little entangled.
"Is it weird for me to dress like this? Isn't it pretty? Otherwise, I'll go get another one. ”
"No, oh, no, it's beautiful, it's late, let's go!"
Yan Qinchang stretched out his hand and pulled Chu Xinyun downstairs, Chu Xinyun glanced at him secretly, seemed to see that the tips of his ears were a little red, hurriedly turned his head, and secretly glanced at it again, could it be that he was wrong?
"You're looking good tonight."
Chu Xinyun couldn't help but blush his cheeks.
"Yes, yes? Thank you. ”
"Hahahahaha."
"You, what are you laughing at?"
"It's nothing, I just think you're cute."
This time, Chu Xinyun's face turned even redder, and the red was about to drip blood, Yan Qinchang next to her looked at her appearance, turned his head and smiled again.
The two walked around the side streets, however, Chu Xinyun kept his head down the whole time.
Yan Qinchang didn't know what he was talking about, so he pulled her to the lotus river where the lotus lanterns were placed.
"Xiao Yue'er, do you want to put a lotus lantern? People here say that you can make a wish by putting a lotus lantern, write your heart's wish on the lantern, and then put it into the river, and the lotus god can help you fulfill your wish. ”
"Really?"
"I don't know, it's okay anyway, otherwise, I'll buy you a lotus lantern, and we'll put it together."
"Okay."
The two walked to a shop selling lotus lanterns.
"Boss, buy a lotus lantern."
"Okay, I see that the son and the young lady are talented and beautiful, a match made in heaven, this lotus lamp, the old decay will be given to the two of you as a gift, I wish you happiness and happiness as soon as possible."
"We are not ......"
"Thank you for your kindness, we received the gift for your kindness, and we accepted it, but you still keep this silver! After all, you are an old man here, and I believe that life is not so easy. ”
"Okay, okay, thank you two kind people."
When they walked to the side of the Lotus River, Chu Xinyun couldn't help but ask, "What did you mean just now?" We don't have anything to do with each other, so why don't you explain it to him? ”
"It takes a long time for you to explain to him, and it's troublesome, besides, he's just a casual remark, so why should you care so much???
Chu Xinyun's heart was originally a little nervous, but after listening to his explanation, she suddenly felt that a basin of cold water had been poured on her, and her whole heart was cold.
Yes, I said it myself, I have nothing to do with him, and the old man is just a casual remark, why should he care so much? But why is your chest still a little stuffy? It's really weird.
"The lotus lantern has been lit, give it, you write your wish on it!"
Chu Xinyun took the note in her hand, and then wrote three words on the paper, when Yan Qinchang came over, she hurriedly folded the note into a ball and stuffed it under the lotus lamp.
"Xiao Yue'er, what wish is written on your lotus lantern? Can you tell me about it? ”
"No, haven't you heard of it? You can't tell others what you wish for, and you can't tell anyone else about your wishes, because once you say it, it won't work."
"Really? But you didn't believe it at first. ”
"Anyway, I said, if you can't watch it, you can't watch it, where do you have so many words???"
Chu Xinyun was like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, and he couldn't help but roar angrily.
Yan Qinchang felt that he was playing big, which made Chu Xinyun angry, and hurriedly coaxed.
"Yes, yes, I can't watch it, it's my fault, I don't see it, okay? Xiao Yue'er, don't be angry, okay? Shall I take you to eat rock sugar gourds? Don't be angry with me anymore. ”
"Humph!"
"Isn't Xiao Yue'er angry? Then let's go eat rock sugar gourd, okay? ”
"It's not good, I'm angry, you can use rock sugar gourd to coax me, when I'm a three-year-old child, I'm going back to the inn to sleep, I'll go back tomorrow morning, I don't have time to mess with you here."
Chu Xinyun seemed to be really angry, put the lotus lantern into the water, and walked directly in the direction of the inn without looking back.
Chu Xinyun, who was lying on the bed, couldn't help but think of his lotus lamp.
Are you a demonic barrier? Why do you always think of him? As soon as I got close to him, my heart beat very fast, and the lotus lantern ...... Forget it, don't think about him anymore, sleep.
When Chu Xinyun was very upset, she heard a series of knocks on the door outside.
"Who? I'm already asleep, hurry back! ”
She gave the eviction order very directly, but the people outside still knocked on the door as if they didn't hear it.
Chu Xinyun was really annoyed by the person outside the door, so he got out of bed as soon as he lifted the quilt, walked out, opened the door and yelled irritably at the person outside the door: "In the middle of the night, you ......"
When he saw that person holding something in his hand, Chu Xinyun couldn't help but be stunned.
"You're asleep, do you still want to eat the rock sugar gourd?"
Yan Qinchang looked at her irritable appearance, and thought that she was tired of herself, and said a little sadly.
"You, why do you want to buy rock sugar gourds? Didn't I say I wouldn't eat it? ”
"I saw that you didn't seem to be in a very good mood, so I thought about buying a rock sugar gourd to make you happy, but I didn't expect it to make you even more angry, it's my bad, I'll leave."
After speaking, Yan Qinchang turned his head and was about to leave Chu Xinyun, but he took his hand and snatched the rock sugar gourd from his hand with his other hand.
"You bought all this rock sugar gourd, and you don't like to eat it, so you don't give it to me, isn't it possible that you plan to give it to others???"
When he said the last sentence, Chu Xinyun didn't know why there was such a heavy sour taste in his tone.
"How so? If you don't eat it, even if you throw it away, I won't let others eat it, I will give you what you want, and if you don't want it, I won't let others get it, as long as you want it, I can give it to you. ”
Chu Xinyun couldn't help but be blushed by Yan Qinchang's words.
"Okay, you actually brought all the rock sugar gourds, I'm going to sleep too, you go to sleep quickly."
After speaking, she closed the door directly, and the whole person squatted on the ground, leaning against the door tightly with the quilt, she felt that her heart was about to jump out, even if it was against her back, but she could feel that Yan Qinchang had not left yet, he was still standing at the door, she couldn't help but smile.
Because she knew what was going on? She finally understood, it turned out ...... I like him.
After learning her true thoughts in her heart, Chu Xinyun was no longer entangled, and after she happily finished eating the rock sugar gourd, she lay on the bed, and the curvature of the corners of her mouth never fell.
I had a good night's dreams, but I don't know if other people are like her.
Early in the morning of the second day, everyone rushed back the same way, and after several twists and turns, they finally returned to Chu's house.
Bai Rou, who had received the news early, was standing at the gate of the Chu family, waiting for their return.
As soon as Chu Xinyun got out of the carriage, she saw Bai Rou standing at the door, she seemed to have been waiting there for a long time, Chu Xinyun hurriedly rushed up and hugged Bai Rou.
"Mother, why did you come to the door? How long have you been waiting? I didn't tell you that you don't have to wait for us. ”
"I'm at home, isn't that all right? You have to hand over a letter and come back, saying that these two days are almost here, I will never guard the door every day, every day you come back, oops, I'm still worried, you are halfway, in case something happens, what can you do? Thankfully, you're finally back. ”
Chu Xinyun looked at Bai Rou, who was very worried about herself, with mixed feelings in her heart, she didn't know what to do, she hurriedly took Bai Rou's hand and walked inside.
"Mother, let's go into the house and talk about something, you've been standing outside here for so long, are you tired? Let's go inside and rest, let's talk slowly. ”
Yan Qinchang, who was still ignored, stood at the door, very helpless, but fortunately, he had been regarded as transparent for so long, and he slowly got used to it, so he followed behind them and walked inside together.
He listened to Chu Xinyun tell Bai Rou all the things he had along the way, but in order to avoid worrying her, she also ignored her assassination in an inn and didn't tell Bai Rou, for fear that she would worry.
"Looking for it, this time I went to the paper mill to buy rice paper, which was very smooth, so I said, mother, you don't have to worry too much about me, there is really nothing to do, we need to wait another day or two, and the rice paper, I think, will be delivered."
Chu Xinyun looked very relaxed, and a little proud, just like a child who got sugar
Yan Qinchang shook his head helplessly, it seemed that he would have to keep an eye on her a little more in the future, and he couldn't let her go out and hang around alone.
"You, you, I don't know what to say about you, the son of the county magistrate, you dare to call your brother casually, and you are not afraid that people will come to you to make trouble."
"Mother, the county magistrate doesn't care about Zirui at all, Zirui is also a poor child, he has no mother since he was a child, and his father doesn't love him, there are a few concubines at home, and those people are looking forward to his death one by one, as long as he dies, their children will be the county magistrate's son-in-law."
