The ice sculptures are so vivid that they look like they are real except for the different colors.

Candles are also placed in many of the ice sculptures, and when it gets dark at night, they are even more beautiful to light up the candles.

Naturally, they couldn't go back tonight, so the Su family rented a small yard near Yingqiu Lake and let several children live together.

The yard is not big, and there are four huts and eight huts. There are four people in the big house, the first one is composed of four sons, Su Ying'an, Su Yingkuan, Su Yingchen and Cheng Tao, and the second room lives Su Qianyao, Su Moyao, Su Yunyao and Su Wanyao, because Liu He instructed before leaving home, saying that Su Wanyao was timid at night and wanted others to sleep with her, and she was not worried about others, so she had to be arranged to Su Qianyao, and Su Qianyao was also very good to this youngest sister, so she accepted Liu He's request.

Su Qingyao and Su Jinyao, as well as Hu Zhirou's two daughters Su Yiyao and Su Qinyao, are in the same room, and the two of them are depressed because of stealing money, and they think they are not welcomed, so they are much more honest.

And Su Huiyao and Su Yuyao said that they were prone to nightmares at night, and the other said that they were not feeling good and light, in short, they showed that they were unwilling to live with other people, they thought so much, as far as their eldest lady was concerned, where would anyone dare to sleep with them?

The two of them lived together, and it was not as elaborate as the big room, and it was used for the maid and the mother-in-law to serve people.

After a tiring journey, Su Qianyao went to the east of the courtyard to take a look at the west, and was quite satisfied, so she was waited by Ye Zi and changed her clothes. They were going to have some lunch in the courtyard first, otherwise it would be cold and snowy outside, and it would not be easy to find a place to eat.

There is a restaurant nearby, and they don't eat alcohol, so they simply ask for a few dishes.

Su Ying'an had already come to see the ice lantern in the winter two years ago, and he knew a lot about it, and he had eaten in this restaurant, so he immediately said that he knew what was authentic.

"The rock sugar sauce elbow here is absolutely a must! There are also assorted soups, hibiscus chicken slices, fried lotus root flour minced meatballs, sesame pepper chicken..."

The shopkeeper next to him hurriedly wrote down what Su Ying'an said, and couldn't help but praise: "Childe really understands." ”

didn't wait for Su Ying'an to boast about himself, but listened to Su Huiyao say in a strange aura on the side, "Cousin, it's really, why did you order food here?" I'm a younger sister and I want to see what to eat, and besides, it's rare for my cousin to come here, so I have to ask someone to order two, right? ”

Su Yingan smiled awkwardly and handed the menu book to Cheng Tao.

And Cheng Tao waved his hand, indicating that he was not picky about eating and drinking, and asked his cousin to order.

Su Huiyao took the menu book with peace of mind, "Another bacon bird's nest cup, a braised lion's head, and a truffle angelica fish soup." ”

It's not that she spent money, this time the expenses are all counted in the Su family's account, and Su Ying'an just ordered those who deliberately picked cheap, but she didn't want Su Huiyao to be so ignorant.

Everyone frowned in unison, but they simply took a bite, can they finish it with so much order?

And Su Huiyao blinked her big innocent eyes on the side, as if she was saying that she could finish eating.

"I heard that this year, the royal family has expanded the Yingqiu Lake again, and there are more ice lanterns, and we haven't seen some of them, so this talented craftsman is really powerful!" Su Ying'an gushed endlessly.

Cheng Tao echoed with a smile, "Although I come back almost every winter, I rarely come here, and it's rare for you to bring me here, and I don't have to worry about it." ”

After a while, the dishes were ready.

Su Qianyao first took a soup bowl and served Su Wanyao a bowl of soup, then sandwiched two pieces of lean elbow meat for her, and sandwiched some side dishes, and finally took care of herself.

Su Yuyao and Su Huiyao on the side looked at this scene, and a sneer appeared in their eyes.

Unfortunately, it was seen by Su Yunyao, who was serving soup.

Because Su Wanyao is timid, she has always been afraid of her third sister and seventh sister, so that she can't get off the chopsticks in front of her own sisters in the family, but fortunately, there are five sisters and ten sisters around her who have been taking care of her, which can be regarded as relaxing.

Su Wanyao took a small bite of meat, and looked up at the fifth sister from time to time.

In her eyes, this fifth sister is like a fairy in the nine heavens, beautiful, natural and generous, sincere and kind to others, compared to her, the third sister and the seventh sister are like rakshasas in hell, which makes people feel terrifying and afraid.

I'm afraid Su Qianyao is the best person to treat her in this mansion.

After eating, everyone went back to the courtyard, cleaned up and prepared to go to watch the lanterns.

Su Wanyao was wearing a silver vermilion narcissus skirt, a jacket of lake water blue rhombus yarn on the outside, and a cloak with a camellia pattern on the outside of the jacket, because her body was too weak to freeze her. She finished wearing it here, and Su Qianyao was still holding a jacket over there, "Twelfth sister, why don't you wear another one, I'm worried that it will be colder at night." ”

Hearing this, Su Wanyao's heart warmed, and she smiled lightly and said, "Fifth sister, dress yourself warmer, my sister is sweating at this time." ”

Su Huiyao and Su Yuyao in the room over there were discussing something in a low voice.

"Are you sure that person will be able to come in a while?" Su Yuyao was a little worried.

"Don't worry, my mother's words have always been reliable, I'll let them see what a pickled person this fifth girl of the Su family is!" Su Huiyao said viciously, as if her eyes were filled with anger.

Su Yunyao wore a skirt with red plums in the moon-white snow, and also wore a jacket of the same color as Su Wanyao, and then wore a thick brocade and wool cloak, which Qin Manliu specially brought to her, saying that she had a good complexion and was just right to wear this.

Everyone went to the direction of Yingqiu Lake.

Not far away, the Sheng family and his party had just gotten off the carriage, looking up to see a few girls walking in front, Sheng Guizhi stopped and pulled Sheng Guiyan and asked, "Do you see if that's the Su family?" ”

Sheng Guiyan narrowed his eyes slightly, "Really." ”

Sheng Guizhi hurriedly shouted, "Sister Qian'er! Sister Asa'er! ”

In front of them, Su Qianyao and his party stopped, and when they turned around, they saw them.

Sheng Changyu heard Qian'er's words, hurriedly got out of the carriage, and his face immediately turned red. And Su Qianyao is the same.

"What a coincidence." Sheng Changyu asked gently, "You are also here to watch the lanterns?" ”

Although he asked 'you', his eyes only stopped at Su Qianyao alone.

Without waiting for Su Qianyao to answer, Su Huiyao twisted her waist and said as if she was very familiar, "Exactly, the cousin of the Cheng family is here, and my father told us to take him to have a good time, and Brother Chang Yu will also enjoy the lanterns today?" What a coincidence! ”

Seeing Su Huiyao clinging to the son of the family next to him like this, Cheng Tao frowned slightly, and understood why several younger sisters were not close to these seven girls. Su Moyao on the side snorted coldly and scolded the fox many times softly.

But she can't tear down her sister's stage in public, otherwise it may be her fault again when she gets home.

In the end, Sheng Guizhi is not afraid of the ground, seeing Su Huiyao's foxy style, he immediately pulled down his face, pulled his brother with one hand, and pulled Su Qianyao with the other hand and left, and the group behind him also followed.

Leaving only Su Huiyao and Su Yuyao, under the sleeves, Su Huiyao clenched her fists tightly, and after a while, a few words popped out from between her teeth, "Su Qianyao, I will make you ruined!" Let's see which one dares to marry you in Xunjing! ”

It's just that these are all afterthoughts, although Su Qianyao is embarrassed, but Sheng Guizhi is tight, she can't leave the others, just follow the Sheng family, and the Su family follows behind, Su Yunyao hugged Su Moyao's arm and leaned on her shoulder, smiling like something.

Yingqiu Lake is worthy of being the royal territory, the location is good, the surroundings are quiet, and there are stoves in several sheds nearby, worrying about which nobles who appreciate the lanterns are cold and give them heating.

There are also some sheds under which new fruits and hot tea are prepared, which can be said to be readily available.

Walk all the way and enjoy all the way, those ice lanterns are all kinds, the outermost circle is lotus-shaped, an ice lantern is about two or three people in size, and then go inside are some small animals, rabbits, kittens and lambs and dogs, as if they are about to bark after a while.

The king of lamps in the middle is a tower, a two-story house high, which has aroused the admiration of many people, and many people are curious about how this lamp was carved.

The four corners of the tower are covered with lanterns, which take the meaning of peace.

"It's beautiful here!" Su Qianyao said involuntarily.

Sheng Changyu on the side looked at her through his sister, and wrote down her words in his heart, thinking that if he really married her into the mansion, he would treat her well, take her here every winter to enjoy the lanterns, and carve one for her at home.

But Su Qianyao didn't know about this.

Su Huiyao looked left and right as she walked, her attention was not on the ice lamp at all, Su Yuyao pulled her on the side, and whispered, "Don't worry, that person said that it would be dark to come, but I'm afraid it hasn't arrived yet." ”

"I know." Su Huiyao slapped her hand and said insidiously, "Look at her fox and charming, wait until it gets dark, so that she won't be able to turn over in her life!" Rob a man with me, don't blame me for poisoning! "A few maids also dipped in the light of their masters and followed them to enjoy the lanterns, where has Songyin ever seen such a beautiful thing? Along the way, his mouth opened wide in surprise, and he couldn't care about the cold wind getting in.

But Lisheng took out the first-class maid's shelf, "These are nothing, when I used to enjoy the lanterns with the girl on the Shangyuan Festival, it was like this, but there were not many tricks here, there were many people at that time, I almost got separated from the girl, I heard that some people lost their shoes, and we also met a shoe finder on the road, not to mention how funny!" ”

This... It's probably the knowledge of the official eunuch lady... Song Yin is an uninformed, and when he heard what Lisheng said, he couldn't help but think, what kind of beautiful thing can people look like when there are so many people outside, what kind of beautiful thing can make people even care about their shoes just to look at it?

There are twelve genera carved in a circle near the lamp king, mice, cows, tigers, rabbits, etc., and then look at a large peony flower in the distance, and even the meridians on the leaves can be seen carefully, which shows that the craftsman is thoughtful.

It's really the Imperial Palace! Cheng Tao thought to himself.
