This New Year is the first time that Shen Lin and his mother have spent time outside, but they are not lonely, because Shen Lin does not stay at home much, he goes to different banquets and different homes every day, which is also lively. Mother's condition is gradually improving, even in the New Year, Jing Gongzi still insists on giving his mother acupuncture, because his mother can't eat too much greasy, so he also resigned from the banquet, but he is not lonely, accompanied by Jing Wenzhou every day. Jing Wenzhou taught Mrs. Shen a set of physical exercises, and Mrs. Shen practiced with the maid every day, and her mood became better and better, and she was much ruddy.

After the last acupuncture, Jing Wenzhou told Mrs. Shen that she could gradually increase her meat consumption, and there would be no major problems after that, if there was a need to send someone to call. At this time, the time is almost to the Shangyuan Festival. Although his mother recovered, she didn't want to go back to Beijing, so Shen Lin decided to invite Brother Wu and Brother Jing to enjoy the lanterns together, but Jing Wenzhou couldn't go with him, so Wu Wenyi accompanied Shen Lin to go together.

Shangyuan Festival arrived, Li Yuyao got up very early, and she started preparing early. She was so happy that when she told her brother to invite Jing Wenzhou to enjoy the lanterns together, she was afraid that he would refuse, but he agreed. The maid rummaged through the cabinets to find clothes, and she tried them on casually, and it seemed that all of them did not fit. In the end, I was tired and couldn't do it, so I lay in a pile of clothes and closed my eyes to recuperate, thinking about it. Suddenly remembered that in the New Year, when she was making clothes for Jing Gongzi, she made a skirt for herself with the same color material, because the material was not public, she outlined the edge of the dress with silver thread, and she wore that one, she decided.

Li Mansion, even if her heart is turbulent, Li Yuyao still looks like that impeccable lady, she chews slowly, and her sitting posture is very upright and standardized. In fact, she didn't have the appetite to continue eating, but she had to wait for Yuxuan, why didn't her brother eat enough, oh, it turned out that there was his favorite roast chicken thigh.

She swallowed the last bite with difficulty, pursed her lips, then put down her chopsticks and rinsed her mouth. Even she didn't know what she was eating, she was already very impatient, but she had to wait, this was self-cultivation, so she stared at Li Yuxuan until this kid finally realized what she was doing.

Li Yuxuan looked at his sister embarrassedly, and immediately understood, hey, don't eat it, and beckoned the maid to come over and wait for cleaning.

Li Yuyao cheered in her heart, she who was always one step closer to the goal stood up and said, "I'll go back to the house to change clothes first, and then I'll look for you." He turned around and walked away elegantly.

Li Yuyao returned to the house and quickly commanded the maid to act.

Xing'er has already followed Li Yuyao's instructions to let her subordinates smoke the clothes with floral fragrance, and then help her put them on, and the maid who combed her hair came over to give Li Yuyao a simple, not easy to loose hairstyle, because considering that there will be many people at night, so the headdress does not need to be cumbersome, just a silver hairpin to fix the hairstyle, decorated with pearls next to it, and the earrings are also pearl studs. Qi bangs, small broken hair naturally hangs down the ears. Xing'er asked her, "Lady, do you think you are still satisfied?" Isn't it too vegan? “

Li Yuyao couldn't wait to get up and leave. "Alright, alright, I don't want to wear anything. In a hurry, when she was about to reach her brother's room, she stood still and tidied herself. Xing'er stepped forward and knocked on the door, and it was Jing Wenzhou who opened the door, and he was also about to go out.

The moment she saw Jing Wenzhou, Li Yuyao's heart stopped beating, and she began to worry about whether she was dressed appropriately, complaining about herself, she really should listen to Xing'er, dress up more, dress up.

The girl quietly raised her eyes and looked secretly, I don't know if Jing Wenzhou likes it or not, why doesn't he have a surprised look? Don't look at yourself? Thinking about it, I was a little disappointed, cursed, and ashamed of being afraid of being discovered.

Didn't Xing'er say that she was the most beautiful girl in Yanjin City, it turned out that it was just to make her happy, Li Yuyao, who thought of this, suddenly had a sour nose, tears welled up in her eyes, thanks to Li Yuxuan's voice coming from inside: "Sister, my husband has already come when I come back, let's go quickly." “

Li Yuyao hurriedly suppressed her tears with a smile, adjusted her state, and slowly turned to Jing Wenzhou, seeing that he just nodded and didn't make a sound, so she hurriedly followed, her heart was like a rabbit bumping around, it turned out that he was looking at himself! My heart bloomed, and my tears became sweet.

As in previous years, the lanterns were placed on the busiest main street, still managed by the major merchants, and hung in front of the storefronts. Merchants are clustered here, lined up one after another, and connected by this, looking like two giant dragons winding and circling. The night is like the setting sun, like a dream, covering the clouds and setting off the moon. As the saying goes, "the moonlight is hazy, the lights are noisy, and the starlight is shining in Lanxuan." Rooftop midnight lotus feast, building spring peach and plum garden. I dip the head of the river to wave the ink treasure, Jun Ao Hanhai Lingqingyuan, add poems to celebrate the New Year, and do the warmth of Shangyuan"

Each lantern has a riddled note spinning under it, and then guess it correctly and go to the corresponding store to redeem the prize. In fact, it is not the prize that attracts it, but the mood of winning. On this day, men, women, children, brothers and sisters will be invited to go, and even men and women who are happy with each other will put down their reserve and pass under different lanterns, and tell each other their heartfelt feelings, and the world will not look at them with accusatory eyes at this moment.

Li Yuyao and Jing Wenzhou shuttled through the sea of lights with the flow of people. Stop and see, even if Li Yuyao is dressed elegantly, it is still difficult to hide her style, and from time to time there are admiring eyes from the opposite sex. So Li Yuxuan grabbed his sister's hand and became a flower messenger, but he was still young, and he really didn't have much deterrent power, but Jing Wenzhou stood on Li Yuyao's side and covered a lot of wind and butterflies.

Coming to the door of a shop, Li Yuyao looked at the exquisite bird lantern and was stunned, Jing Wenzhou and Yuxuan stepped forward to take down the riddle:

Looking at the mountains from afar,

Hear the water silently.

Spring flowers are still there,

People are not surprised when they come.

After reading the riddle, everyone except Jing Wenzhou was at a loss. Seeing Li Yuxuan scratching his ears and cheeks, Jing Wenzhou bent down and leaned into his ear and said, "Xuan'er, what have I asked you to do recently?" “

"I see, it's a painting. You made me make a picture, right? I saw the gentleman looking at him with an encouraging smile. This is a scholar's four treasures shop, so Li Yuxuan got a brush, in fact, the texture is also average, but he can't put it down, others can't touch it, except for Jing Wenzhou, the lantern was naturally given to his sister.

Everyone also happily praised the little boy's intelligence. I bought something from this store because I was happy.

At this moment, there are crowds of people, shoulder to shoulder, bustling, people coming and going, endlessly, Li Yuyao took advantage of the situation to get close to Jing Wenzhou, pulling his sleeve with one hand, pulling Li Yuxuan with the other, and Xing'er followed closely. Jing Wenzhou doesn't need to look at it to understand the girl's thoughts, but today is special, so there is no need to spoil everyone's interest.

After watching a few more lantern riddles, Li Yuxuan won the reward by himself, and proudly rewarded the lantern to the maid and the scholar. Walking and walking to a pastry shop in front, Xing'er pointed to the name of the store and told her little lady that it was a place where she often bought pastries, and everyone was very happy when they heard it, because they all liked the pastries of that house Except for Jing Wenzhou, he didn't like desserts very much, but he was still good.

When I entered the pastry shop, I saw that the counter was full of people, and everyone thought of one place. He looked around and saw that there was a hall on the left, which should be a place for people to drink tea and eat pastries, so he bowed his head and said to Li Yuxuan: "You accompany my sister to the hall over there to rest, and I will ask Xing'er to send pastries over." “

"Don't forget, I love walnut filling. My sister likes jujube stuffing. Li Yuxuan hurriedly shouted.

Xing'er didn't wait for Jing Wenzhou to open her mouth and said with a smile: "Little master, I know, I can't be wrong." Then he turned around and asked Jing Wenzhou, "What kind of taste does Mr. like?" ”

"I'm casual. Jing Wenzhou said lightly.

: Sir, rest, I know all their tastes. I bought it and it went. Apricot said cheerfully.

"Okay. Jing Wenzhou did not refuse.

Jing Wenzhou, who walked towards the hall, met Wu Wenyi and Shen Lin head-on. Wu Wenyi was very happy to see him, patted him on the shoulder and said, "Brother Wenhou, I met a few classmates who wanted to get together together, but Brother Shen was tired and just wanted to buy some pastries for his mother, so he turned back, you happen to be here, you can accompany him." Goodbye. After saying that, he arched his hand, and without waiting for everyone to answer, he turned around and left. The two looked at his back and shook their heads and smiled, and were about to go to the counter, but Xing'er came and said, "Sir, the little lady and the little boy are waiting for you." Then she saw Shen Lin and felt familiar, but she couldn't remember where she had seen it. But Shen Lin remembered her, it was the maid who glared at him next to the little lady of the Li family in the temple that day.

Jing Wenzhou actually didn't want Shen Lin and Li Yuyao to meet, he was afraid that the old dream would relive and rekindle, but judging from the current situation, it was unavoidable, and deliberately, it was inevitable that there would be a gap in his heart.

However, these days of contact with Shen Lin, he thinks that Shen Lin is a friend worth making, because of his family background, he may be a little unruly, so happy, but he is bold and courageous, and he really can't get along with the gentlemen. If you want to cover up and be delicate and pretentious, you may cause unnecessary misunderstandings, which will backfire. So he said happily: "I and the little lady of the Li family and her younger brother are here to rest and have refreshments, if you want, how about together?"

"It's better to meet by chance. Shen Lin was naturally happy.

Then they walked into the hall together. Jing Wenzhou introduced Shen Lin to Li Yuyao and Li Yuxuan, and they stood up and saluted. Shen Lin returned the salute. Seated.

Li Yuyao, it turns out that her name is Li Yuyao. He thought of a poem:

Yurong's lonely tears dried,

Pear blossoms bring rain in spring.

Yao Mountain goes straight up the jade ladder horizontally,

No need for silver flowers to scatter the fire city.

People are beautiful, and names are beautiful. In order to live up to Jing Wenzhou's trust, he couldn't stare at Li Yuyao all the time. But his heart apparently turned uncontrollably to her. In order not to be so obvious, he could only chat with Jing Wenzhou, talking about Yanjin's specialties and the dim sum of this shop. Ask Li Yuxuan about his knowledge. Then he turned to Li Yuyao and asked, "Little lady, my mother likes pastries, I want to buy some for her, but I don't know if those are delicious?" ”

Li Yuyao raised her head and smiled slightly, but didn't look at him: "I don't know my mother's taste, but the jujube filling, the red bean filling should be good, and the walnut filling is also quite fragrant." “

Shen Lin didn't need to ask to know. In fact, when he peeked at her just now, he already knew her tastes. As Li Yuyao, I talked to him so much because he was Jing Wenzhou's friend. Then she turned to Jing Wenzhou: "Mr. Jing, what do you think?" “

In fact, she didn't know that Jing Wenzhou treated Shen Lin's mother. She heard that Jing Wenzhou had recently taken a fancy to a lady, but she didn't think much about it, anyway, it was normal for Jing Wenzhou, he was so good. She just didn't want to talk to this stranger more, so she changed the subject. How smart Shen Lin was, he immediately understood Li Yuyao's thoughts. But to hear her bird's song and see his delicate face, he was satisfied. It's just that her indifference aroused his fighting spirit even more, who is he Shen Lin, that is the handsome son of the capital, the son of the Shen family. If he wants to marry a wife, many families will squeeze their heads to marry their daughters to him, even if they take concubines, the daughters of small officials in the capital, and the daughters of merchants, they are also eager to marry him.

But now he felt that he had really insulted her by wanting to take her as a concubine. If her family was a little higher, he would have hired her as a wife without hesitation. It's not that he looks down on these vains and looks down on her, but he can't pass the level of his parents.

Shen Lin was a little stunned, and pretended to drink tea to cover up. If the first encounter at the temple was amazing, this one is thrilling. For the first time, a girl walked into his heart and left him lingering.

Seeing that everyone was almost eating, and more and more people gathered in the store, many people began to complain that they couldn't find a table. Jing Wenzhou suggested getting up, in fact, Shen Lin's careful thinking also fell in his eyes, if he wanted to say regret, it was not true, but it was not good to join forcibly, just wait and see.

Originally, Li Yuxuan wanted to go around again, but when he saw that the maid and the maid were full of things in their hands, and everyone was not very interested, he had to turn back. They walked back and met a lot of people, most of them young people, because there were discounts in Qinglou and Restaurant tonight.

Although some people glanced at Li Yuyao from time to time, they saw that there were two handsome men beside her, so they had to give up. Just when Jing Wenzhou and Shen Lin were saying something and didn't pay attention, a few bold people stepped forward to talk to Li Yuyao, and Shen Lin stepped forward without saying a word, grabbed one person's wrist and pushed the other one down at the same time.

Jing Wenzhou was dumbfounded when he saw Li Yuyao, and hurriedly said to Xing'er: "Hurry up and take the little lady back first." And begged Shen Lin to send a guard to escort him, Shen Lin agreed, Li Yuxuan looked at Mr., Mr. nodded, and he stopped sensibly.

As soon as the girl left, Jing Wenzhou grabbed Shen Lin's arm and ran, but fortunately, the passers-by did not react, there were not many onlookers, and people thought that they had inadvertently bumped into each other and fell to the ground.

After running far away, seeing that no one was chasing, the teenagers panted and laughed. Jing Wenzhou didn't ask, Shen Lin didn't explain, this is the tacit understanding between friends, understanding and understanding of each other.

After settling down, I looked around, only to find that they had run to another street, and they were laughing again. Jing Wenzhou asked Shen Lin: "Do you know the way?" ”

Shen Lin's spirit was bright, obviously his emotions were still in the frolicking just now, and he smiled: "I can't lose it." ”

Jing Wenzhou didn't say much, patted him on the shoulder and said, "Then you look for it slowly, I'll go." ”

After saying goodbye to each other.
