Chapter 302: Sugar Gourd

"Question 1: Thinking; Question 2: Zhuang; Question 3: Wells. ”

All right!

"Awesome!" He put away the note, but he was not angry, but gave Du Bai a thumbs up and said with a smile, "Today's son is the first to succeed!" This lantern is Childe's! ”

Smiling, Du Bai took the lantern in his hand, and led Su Wanmiao to slowly walk away under the surprised eyes of everyone.

"Why did Xianggong suddenly remember to ask for this lantern?" After walking a little farther, Su Wanmiao couldn't help but ask with some curiosity.

"Nothing, just remembering something......"

Du Bai shook his head slightly, and suddenly reached out and handed the handle of the lantern to her, half jokingly: "How about it, Xianggong, I'm very good, this is a gift for you, lady!" ”

"Awesome!" Su Wanmiao took the lantern with some surprise, and immediately understood, nodded and said, "Xianggong, you are naturally the most powerful!" After all, I've written such beautiful poems before......"

Speaking of which, she remembered something, took out a sachet from her waist, pursed her lips, and smiled lightly as if she was reminiscing: "At that time, the prime minister said that you should carry it with you, but I have always carried it with me......"

The night and the lights complemented each other, and her slightly shy and sweet appearance made his heart tremble slightly.

"Just take it with you."

didn't expect that a sentence at that time would be remembered by her for so long, which also warmed his heart.

"That's right!"

When he saw a vendor selling rock sugar gourds on the side of the road, Du Bai stepped forward and took two of them, and handed one to her.

"This ...... It's only eaten by children. Su Wanmiao held the lantern in one hand, and waved her hand slightly embarrassed, but her eyes were still a little involuntarily staring at the rock sugar gourd that looked very attractive.

There were also some doubts in her heart, she always felt that Du Bai seemed to take care of her like a little girl tonight, whether it was lanterns or candy......

"You actually want to eat it, too." Du Bai smiled slightly, and stuffed the other one into his mouth, "Don't be afraid of other people's jokes, if you want to laugh, laugh at me first." ”

Seeing that he seemed to be deliberately ugly, Su Wanmiao couldn't help but laugh out loud, nodded lightly and carefully took the rock sugar gourd and put it in her mouth, and suddenly a sweet and sour taste spread throughout her body along the taste buds, some familiar and some unfamiliar.

When I was about a very young person, there were more than a few people in the Su family at that time, and my father and mother were still there. I vaguely remember sitting on my father's shoulder, biting on the rock sugar gourd while looking at the brilliant lantern with anticipation, the taste at that time seemed to be quite similar to today, and it seemed that I could still feel the warm palm of my father's mother......

But since the accident, he has never gone out to see the lantern festival as freely as he did, at most he was taken by his grandfather, as the next generation of the Su family, sitting on the high stands, looking at the bright lights that were almost connected in the distance.

And the taste of rock sugar gourd, never tasted again. Even if the grandfather was in charge of the house later, he didn't have time to reminisce about his childhood.

Now that things are people, the taste of rock sugar gourd is still the same again, but the people around me have changed.

But......

She recalled the warmth that Du Bai brought to her palm, and the sadness in her heart faded slightly, and she was a little moved.

……

After stopping and stopping for a long time, the two finally walked to the most critical place of the lantern festival, that is, the largest restaurant in Yuanyang City.

This is the place where the county magistrate set up a banquet to entertain the big man who came down from the capital, and the children of the big families with names and surnames in Yuanyang City will basically come to participate, including many other famous literati will also gather here tonight, which is not only a banquet, but also a competition, striving to show a hand in front of the big man to get attention.

And here, correspondingly, there will be many Qing people or famous prostitutes to perform music and dance, so as not to be too boring with the poetry of those scholars.

Du Bai had heard Miss Yuening mention it before, and she was also invited here today. This time, it seems that the prefectural magistrate personally ordered it, so it can't be delayed for a while.

At this time, many literati and scholars in green shirts could be seen laughing and smiling at the door, and they could vaguely hear that what they were talking about was nothing more than whether they had recently gotten some good sentences or thoughts, or their thoughts on reading. Occasionally, there are people who talk about being lucky enough to catch a glimpse of the true face of the Oiran, and the feeling is really as fascinating as a fairy descending to earth......

And Su Wanmiao's appearance also attracted many people to look sideways, after all, such beauties that can almost be compared to Oiran are not ordinary to see, especially a few scholars who seem to be from other places are even more stunned, and almost stumble on the front foot and stumble on the back foot.

It's just that even if you look excited, when you notice Du Bai next to such a beauty, you can't help but lament that it's a pity that the famous flower has already been mastered, and it's not good to bother anymore.

And Du Bai was a little keenly aware that when Su Wanmiao stepped into the door of this restaurant, her temperament seemed to have changed a little, less sweet and cute before, more serious and heroic, and her originally gentle eyes also became sharper.

He had a strange illusion, it seemed that Wanmiao had changed from a girl next door to a successful female president in a short period of time, and her temperament had leapt so much that he didn't react.

However, when he saw the furnishings and personnel inside the restaurant, he quickly realized the reason.

I saw that the original tables and chairs for entertaining guests on the first floor of the entire restaurant have been emptied, and a few half-hidden screens and an open space for dancers to perform have been left instead, and there are several rows of chairs and small tables arranged around it, which should be reserved for those scholars and talented people to chant poems for use, and at this time there are already many literati sitting there, talking softly.

In the private room on the second floor opposite, which is the best place to watch the dance music, you can see that a table has been set up, which should be reserved for the prefectural order and the big man to watch, but so far it has not appeared.

The key is that the private rooms next to the second floor are reserved for a few rich and powerful families in Yuanyang City. In addition to the Su family, at a glance, you can see several elders of the Sheng family who are also conspicuous on both sides, and there is the Liu family.

I saw that Old Man Liu and a few children of the Liu family were sitting in his room for a long time, although they were old but aggressive, their eyes were watching everyone who came in from the door, especially when Du Bai and the others appeared.

The gaze was not only as sharp as an eagle's falcon, but also faintly with some hatred, if the eyes could kill, I am afraid that Du Bai and the others would have been riddled with holes.

It's no wonder that Wanmiao's mentality will change suddenly, after all, she has met an old opponent for many years. If it were a different occasion, Du Bai would not suspect that both sides would bring someone to fight.

Of course, no matter what, he is on the side of the Su family.
