Chapter 47: Son, I've Been Pleased with You for a Long Time
As night falls, Suzaku Street is lit up three times in succession, winding all the way up to the entrance of the Imperial Palace. The streets are full of people, and there is a bright light hanging in front of each stall.
The girls on the street are either holding fans or carrying homemade lanterns, dressed up exquisitely, and gather in twos and threes to guess lantern riddles.
There are students in the teahouse who see the prosperous scene below, or write poems, or sing generously.
Shunxi drove the car and parked in a place with few people, "Shizi, it's here." ”
The fair-skinned and slender fingers lifted the curtain, and Wei Yan led Shen Yuan to get out of the carriage, Shen Yuan was also carrying a jade rabbit lantern in his hand, and he was wearing the fox mask on his face.
The fox mask covered the upper half of Shen Kite's face, and Wei Yan said, "This mask is ugly, who bought it for you?" ”
Shen Yuan lifted the hem of her skirt for a moment, suddenly looked at Wei Yan, and then hesitated for a moment before saying, "I forgot, maybe it's my sister." ”
The light of the jade rabbit lantern was reflected on Shen Yuan's body, and the fox mask covering half of her face made her look a little mysterious, Wei Yan felt that the girl in front of her was like an elf at the moment, too beautiful to be real.
Suddenly, Wei Yan looked at this fox mask, and an inexplicable sense of familiarity surged in his heart, "Shen Yuan, have we seen each other before?" ”
Shen Yuan's hand holding the lamp pole tightened, if it weren't for the mask covering it at this moment, Wei Yan would definitely be able to see the tears flickering in Shen Yuan's eyes, "Well, I have seen it." ”
Wei Yan took Shen Kite's hand and walked down the street, thinking as he walked, "Why don't I have any impression at all?" Look at you like this, you should have looked white and clean when you were a child. ”
There weren't many people he remembered when he was a child, and the only one that impressed him was an ugly little girl with a strange temperament, but he didn't associate her with Shen Yuan at all.
"I've seen the son, but the son hasn't seen me." When Shen Yuan heard the second half of Wei Yan's sentence, he panicked, and the lie was naturally said.
When Wei Yan was about to ask something more, Shen Yuan pointed to the pine nut candy sold on the street and said, "I want this." ”
"Buy." Wei Yan's mind was really transferred like this, and Shunxi paid silently in the back.
Shen Yuan ate two bites of pine nut candy, and saw a sugar gourd next to him, "I want that." ”
"Buy." Wei Yan also took a string of them, and Shun was happy to see that Shen Yuan and Wei Yan had them, and they also bought a string when they paid.
In this way, the three of them walked on the street with a string of sugar gourds, and Wei Yan's outstanding appearance and temperament attracted the favor of many women, and they frequently threw flattering glances at Wei Yan.
"This son, this is a lantern made by the little girl herself, if the son can see it, take it." A slim girl held a homemade lantern in her hand and handed it to Wei Yan.
All the women who carry lanterns in the lantern market make their lanterns by themselves, and they will draw their favorite patterns on the lampshades, and if they meet their favorite people in the lantern market, they can come forward to give lanterns. If the man accepts, the two can visit the lantern market together, and finally make a wish together under the old banyan tree to travel together again in the next year.
The girl was shy and timid, peeking at Wei Yan with a red face, but she didn't dare to keep looking.
Shen Yuan was still watching the trick with Shunxi at the stall in front of him, but suddenly saw Wei Yan, who was left behind by them, surrounded by several women, all of whom wanted to give Wei Yan their homemade lanterns.
Wei Yan saw that there were more and more women surrounding him, and he was already unable to move an inch, and he was suddenly a little unhappy.
Suddenly, a petite figure came out of the pile of heavy people, ran to him, and then raised the jade rabbit lantern in his hand, and said: "This son, I have liked you for a long time, can you travel with me in the light market tonight?" ”
A smile rose at the corner of Wei Yan's lips, and instead of immediately taking the jade rabbit lantern in her hand, he asked, "How much do you like me?" ”
If an ordinary woman heard this kind of question, most of them would be speechless in shame, but Shen Yuan never hid her thoughts about him in front of Wei Yan.
Shen Kite's love for him is sincere and warm, pure and clean.
Shen Yuan took off his mask, a smile bloomed in his eyes, and there seemed to be a spring of clear water flowing in his bright peach blossom eyes, but there was a flame-like heat surging in the deepest part.
"Shizi is the person I put on the tip of my heart." After ten years, ten years of reading, and only after crossing life and death can I have a chance to come to you.
Wei Yan raised his hand to support his forehead, the roots of his ears were slightly hot, and he chuckled: "Shen Yuan, you really dare to say it." ”
Confession or something, it has always been a man who takes the initiative, he just wanted to tease Shen Yuan just now, how did he know that Shen Yuan dared to say this in front of so many people.
Some introverted girls next to her blushed when they heard Shen Kite's words, and there was mockery and envy in their eyes when they looked at her.
Shen Yuan looked at Wei Yan with a frank gaze, his little face was full of seriousness, and he repeated it again, his voice was soft but firm, "Shizi, I have liked you for a long time......"
"Okay."
Wei Yan took her lantern, then picked her up with one hand, let her sit in the crook of his arm, Shen Yuan gently hugged his neck, and the two walked out of the crowd together, leaving a bunch of unwilling girls.
knew that this son liked to take the initiative and be bold, so they simply pounced on it, woo woo......
In order to prevent Wei Yan from being watched again, Shen Yuan put the fox mask on his face and put it on Wei Yan's face.
"Don't wear it, it's too ugly, it's not my fault that I'm good-looking." Wei Yan said confidently.
Shen Yuan still had a sugar gourd in his mouth, his little face bulging, and he stared at Wei Yan and said, "The son of the world belongs to me alone, and I don't want to show it to others." ”
Wei Yan only thought that she was coquettish, and did not understand the true meaning of Shen Yuan's words, "You can't talk nonsense outside in the future." ”
Wei Yan felt that Shen Yuan was still young now, and there were many aspects that seemed very childish, and if she said such things again after she was married, she would be called a jealous woman if others heard it.
Shen Yuan didn't respond, but the sugar gourd in his mouth was actually with a hint of bitterness.
It's okay, she still has time, she will be a beacon for Wei Yan.
Wei Yan hugged Shen Yuan effortlessly, and walked away with her for so long, his breath was not chaotic, and Shen Yuan seemed to have discovered the secret that Wei Yan's strength was much greater than that of ordinary people.
"Shizi Shizi, there are lantern riddles there." Shen Yuan pointed to the largest restaurant in Chang'an City, Lou Yuantai.
When Wei Yan saw Lou Yuantai, he suddenly remembered Qin Ningxiang's incident, and Shen Yuan suddenly said: "It is said that Lou Yuantai will release ten puzzles every year during the light market, and so far no one has been able to answer all ten questions, but Qin Ningxiang of Qin Mansion answered nine questions when he was fifteen years old." ”
"So she is not only the first beauty in Chang'an recognized by the queen's mother, but also the first talented woman in the mouth of the people of Chang'an."
Qin Ningxiang is sixteen this year, and now she has gone south to study and has not returned, but Shen Yuan has a hunch that they are about to meet.
