I love this gift. Zhang Meishou said with a smile: "I have been learning to cook with my third sister in the past two days, and I can just use it." ”

And the third sister suddenly felt a little unwell today, but she didn't come out to join in the fun.

"But I didn't expect His Highness to leave the palace, but I didn't prepare a gift for His Highness." Zhang Meishou said as he closed the box.

Zhu Youji looked at her and said seriously: "Seeing you smile many times this time, it is the most suitable gift for me." ”

Seeing her smile, it was as if all the fatigue had vanished.

"I laugh every day, so don't you make a fortune?" Zhang Meishou got up with a smile, handed him a hand, and said with bright eyes: "Your Highness, let's go out and put the river lantern." ”

Fang Cai Wanxi bought a lot and gave Ah Li two.

"Okay."

Zhu Youzhu smiled and held the slender jade hand that stretched out in front of him.

The two of them left the cabin and bent down to put the lantern into the water.

There are dotted river lanterns floating on the surface of the river, floating slowly with the water waves, as if the night full of stars is reflected on the water.

Wang Shouren didn't go far before they were caught up by Qing Yu.

Qing Yu arched his hand towards Wang Shouren and said, "Gongzi asks Wang Gongzi to go to the boat to play the qin." ”

Wang Shouren was stunned when he heard this.

"Isn't there a girl playing the piano and singing music on the boat?"

Qing Yu said expressionlessly: "The fragrance on that girl's body is too strong, and the son is afraid that Miss Zhang will not be used to smelling it, so he invited someone off the boat." ”

Wang Shouren looked at the exquisite painting boats with lanterns hanging high on the river with a strange face.

From time to time, melodious music wafts from the boat, and you can see beautiful women dancing on the bow of the boat.

So...... What's the matter with him getting in with a man?

Won't it really cause those piano girls and dancers to look sideways?

However, there is no reason not to obey His Highness's order.

Wang Shouren secretly gritted his teeth and pulled Canglu on the painting boat together.

In front of the stall where the riddles were guessing, the owner of the stall was frequently arching his hand towards Xie Qian: "Childe is really extraordinary, and he has solved three riddles one after another, two of which have never been solved in the past three years." These lanterns are all Childe's—"

Xie Qian returned the salute with a smile: "Praise falsely." ”

Xu Wanxi looked at the delicate lanterns that were sent to her, and the joy on her face couldn't be hidden.

This lantern riddle stall was also out of the stall during the Shangyuan Festival, but she came with her second brother at that time, so she couldn't get the lantern she liked as she wished.

But this Lord Xie easily guessed the three most difficult lantern riddles at this time!

Listening to the many praises in her ears, Xu Wanxi unconsciously had some proud looks on her face.

She subconsciously looked at the man who was much taller than her next to her, and saw that the other party's demeanor was as usual, with a shallow smile in his eyes, and the silhouette of his side face looked more and more profound and heroic under the reflection of the lanterns.

She was inexplicably distracted.

At this time, Xie Qian turned his head and looked at her.

Xu Wanxi's hand holding the lantern tightened, like a child who had done something wrong and was found on the spot, and her face immediately turned red.

Fortunately, the lanterns were brilliant in color, which gave her cover.

"Is that enough?" The other party asked her with a smile.

…… Isn't it asking yourself if you've seen enough?

Xu Wanxi was greatly embarrassed when she heard this, and looked away in a panic.

Seeing this, Xie Qian's eyes flashed slightly, and he smiled and said, "I'm asking you if these lanterns are enough?" ”

What's going on in this girl's head?

“……”

Xu Wanxi's eyes widened.

It turned out to be ...... Does that mean?

The little girl turned her back to the people around her, gritted her teeth in self-hatred, and then nodded.

"Let's go, then."

Xie Qian smiled and turned around.

Xu Wanxi suppressed the strangeness in her heart, handed the lantern in her hand to Aunt Lian, and kept only the favorite one in her hand.

She and Xie Qian walked through the flow of people and came to the riverside to put river lanterns under a few willow trees.

"Uncle Xie Shi has been drinking?"

Putting the river lantern into the water, Xu Wanxi asked in a casual tone.

She had already smelled the faint smell of wine on this person's body in the morning.

"Well, I had a few drinks before I went out."

Today, he didn't know that His Royal Highness was out of the palace, and when he was drinking at home, he got the news temporarily.

As for why he came here with His Royal Highness - who told His Highness that it is not easy to get out of the palace now, if he wants to get down to business, he can only drill His Highness on the way to see Miss Zhang.

"Uncle Xie Shi has something on his mind?"

Seeing him sit down on the boulder next to him, Xu Wanxi asked: "The book says that every festival is full of relatives, Uncle Xie Shi drinks on the Begging Festival, don't you feel that it is too lonely to be alone?" ”

Xie Qian laughed when he heard this.

"If I hadn't gone out tonight, I wouldn't have remembered that today was the Begging Festival."

Xu Wanxi glanced at him with strange eyes.

…… Is it so incomprehensible?

But the curiosity in my heart couldn't help but grow a little deeper.

She was a person who couldn't hide her words, and there was no one else around at this time, so she couldn't help but say, "Uncle Xie Shi, can I take the liberty of asking you a question?" ”

Xie Qian looked at her with interest: "Then let me hear how presumptuous it is-"

Xu Wanxi frowned slightly in her heart.

Why do you think that this person is acting and speaking more and more incorrectly?

But if you talk about it in detail, you can't find the real fault...... In short, there is no appearance of an elder.

But she was not the one to retreat, and when the words came to her lips, she asked without hesitation: "Why does Uncle Xie Shi not want to marry a wife?" ”

"It's troublesome and boring, and marrying is just a delay." Xie Qian replied without hesitation.

"Oh......" Xu Wanxi nodded: "It makes sense." ”

Is this the old man's heart?

Instead of the rumors outside, what is the habit of breaking sleeves and the suspicion of hidden diseases......

Seeing that the little girl's face was full of approval, Xie Qian moved her eyebrows and said, "Little girl, don't learn from me, this is not a good thing-"

"Why isn't that a good thing? If you can't find someone who is really like-minded, it is also okay not to marry. ”

That's what Zhen Zhen said before.

She felt reasonable.

When I heard him say this, I didn't feel that there was anything wrong with his thoughts, but I understood and agreed.

The smile in Xie Qian's eyes was a little more real.

It's someone who can talk to him.

It's really an interesting little girl...... If it were someone else, he would probably be treated as a weirdo.

"You are now at the age of discussing relatives, if you listen to my words, and then delay the major events of your life, I am afraid that you will only want to settle accounts with me when you go back to the Dingguo Mansion."

"......" Hearing that he was an elder again, Xu Wanxi stood in place with her hands in her hands, pursed her lips, and did not speak again.

Xie Qian looked at her with a smile.

The little girl who pretends to be a man with half a bundle of dark hair looks particularly neat and neat, and her side face is delicate and smart, which overshadows the noisy city full of colorful lights behind her.

Xie Qian was stunned for a moment.
