When he arrived at Long Street, Yan Tongming stopped following his brothers and sisters-in-law, and went to the teahouse that he had made an appointment with his classmates, and when he entered the door, he was slightly stunned when he saw Shen Meiqi also there. Shen Meiqi arched her hand and said, "Brother Yan Xian, I haven't seen you for a long time." โ
Yan Tongming is not as sophisticated and sleek as his eldest brother, and he can't put on a good face in the face of people he doesn't like, and asks straightforwardly: "Why is he here?" โ
"Tongming, is there any misunderstanding between you and Brother Shen Ren? Today, you will talk about it, and don't get it wrong. One of his classmates persuaded him.
"Brother Yan Xian, if the foolish brother did something wrong? Please also ask the virtuous brother to correct it, and the foolish brother will definitely change it. Shen Meiqi's attitude was sincere.
"No need, the Tao is not the same, you drink tea, I'm leaving." Yan Tongming arched his hand at the other three, turned around and left. Yan Tongming was really good friends with Shen Meiqi, so when he learned that Shen Meiqi was close to him, he had other plans, and even wanted to use his sister to calculate him, so he was so angry and disappointed.
Yan Tongming is a resolute person, and if he doesn't want to associate with him, then he won't have any more dealings. Shen Meiqi pursed the corners of her lips, and the anger in her eyes flashed.
"Yan Tongming, Yan Tongming." One of his classmates shouted twice in a row, and saw Yan Tongming go to the staircase without looking back, "This Yan Tongming has too much temper." โ
Shen Meiqi sighed, "Forget it, today's incident is all my fault, and you have offended him too." โ
"Brother Shen, don't say that, it's not your fault. This Yan Tongming used to look okay, but now he climbed up to Zeng Weng and dragged it, he didn't want to make friends with us, and we didn't need to hold his stinky feet. โ
"That's right, in the future he will take his sunny path, and we will cross our single-plank bridge."
Yan Tongming came to meet his classmates in high spirits, but left in disappointment, and the result of walking with anger was to bump into someone. knocked the little girl to the ground and sat on the ground, Yan Tongming stretched out his hand, withdrew his hand again, and asked helplessly: "I'm sorry, are you okay?" Why don't I take you to the hospital? โ
The people around the little girl helped the little girl up, and yelled at Yan Tongming, "What's the matter with you?" Walk without long eyes. โ
"I'm sorry I didn't pay attention." Yan Tongming apologized again.
"I'm fine, you don't have to go to the hospital, you can go." The little girl waved.
Yan Tongming smiled and nodded, and walked past the little girl; He didn't plan to go to his brother and sister-in-law, he was going to go shopping, buy a novel lantern or two and go back to make his sister happy. It's just that this year's Shangyuan Festival Lantern Festival is not very peaceful.
A lamp on the hill of lights in the center of the street fell and smashed into the person watching the lamp below, and the candle inside set fire to his clothes. He jumped in a panic, causing the onlookers to exclaim, in the crowd, it seemed that someone hit the bamboo frame that built the lamp mountain, and then someone shouted: "Oh no, the lamp mountain has fallen, the lamp mountain has fallen." โ
There was chaos in the streets, ghosts were crying wolves, and some people were shouting, "Help! โ
Someone else shouted: "Don't squeeze, it's on fire." โ
Someone else shouted: "Oh no, it's burning." โ
Yan Tongming didn't expect to encounter this, but he was very shrewd, and when he saw that something was wrong, he ran to the stone lion of a family, and then he saw the little girl who was knocked to the ground by him being squeezed over, and beckoned to her: "Come here, come here." โ
After Yan Tongming saw someone being squeezed to the ground just now, he only let out a few screams, and then there was no sound.
Tan Xiuyue didn't expect to encounter this when she came to watch the lanterns, what made her collapse was that she and her family were scattered, and she was desperately being led forward by the crowd, and when she heard the shouting, she didn't care, and when she passed by the stone lion, suddenly a cold hand reached out and grabbed her. Tan Xiuyue was taken aback, "What are you going to do?" โ
"Come up, don't crowd with people, something will happen." Yan Tongming didn't expect the girl to misunderstand.
Tan Xiuyue reacted at this time, and the people were kind, "Thank you, thank you!" โ
With the help of Yan Tongming, Tan Xiuyue finally squeezed to the stone lion, and the person who dragged her was almost lying on the stone lion, surrounded by three young and strong men, who kept stopping the people who were crowding over.
"You stand up, stand underneath, and people will squeeze them out." Yan Tongliang kindly reminded her.
As soon as the words fell, Tan Xiuyue was almost squeezed away, so frightened that she hurriedly reached out and grabbed Yan Tongliang's hand, "The place above is too narrow, and the two of us can't stand." โ
"You come up and stand, I'll go down." Yan Tongliang smiled brightly. He knocked her down just now, she didn't bother with him, she was a good girl, and he wanted to protect her.
This person helped her in such a dangerous situation, she couldn't get an inch, Tan Xiuyue shook her head, "No, you stand on it, I'll just lean on the lion's head." โ
"You're so petite, others squeezed you away, and you stood up." Yan Tongming grabbed her wrist and said.
At Yan Tongming's insistence, the two changed positions, and Tan Xiuyue looked at Yan Tongming's eyes full of gratitude. By the time the Fire Division, the Capital Mansion, and the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division came to calm down the situation, it was already an hour later.
"When Dengshan fell, I heard that two people were overwhelmed and burned alive."
"How many shops have been burned, and I don't know if the people inside have escaped?"
"It's a good festival of lights, it's like this, Ming'er doesn't know how many people want to hang white."
Hearing this, Tan Xiuyue's face turned pale, almost, almost she was also one of the people lying on the ground. There were shoes and hats that had fallen all over the floor, and many people were lying on the ground moaning.
"Childe, can you tell me your name?" Tan Xiuyue asked.
"My surname is Yan, my name is the same as Ming, and I am ranked in the family...... Big brother and sister-in-law. Yan Tongming saw Yan Tongzhu and his wife.
"Third brother." Yan Tongzhu heard that something was going on here, worried about the safety of his two younger brothers, so he led someone over, and met Yan Tongming before he could find it, and he was overjoyed.
"Big brother and sister-in-law, are you okay?" Yan Tongming asked.
"We're fine, we're just not on this street." Yan Tongzhu looked around, "Did you see your second brother and second sister-in-law?" โ
"Nope." Yan Tongming shook his head.
Zeng Yuzhi saw Tan Xiuyue who was following Yan Tongming, "Who is this young lady?" โ
"I was rescued by him, my surname is Tan." Tan Xiuyue said immediately. Fortunately, Zeng Yuzhi is not Qiao Huaiqing, I don't know Yan Hao's remarks, otherwise, I would have to say the last sentence, the grace of saving my life, and I promised it with my body. Yan Tongming is handsome, so he doesn't have to wait for the next life to report it.
"Miss Tan is separated from her family?" Zeng Yuzhi asked.
"Yes." Tan Xiuyue nodded.
"Don't be afraid, we'll help you find it." Zeng Yuzhi said with a smile.
"Thank you." Tan Xiuyue said with a smile.
The street was still a little chaotic, and after looking for a long time, they found the people of the Tan family, and when Tan Xiuyue left with his family, they continued to look for Yan Tongliang and Qiao Huaiqing; In the end, it was found in the hospital, Yan Tongliang saved two children, and his hand was injured.
There was such a big incident on the Shangyuan Festival, more than 20 people died, nearly 100 people were injured, and seven shops were burned.
