Chapter 6: Not Like a Woman
Anguo Marquis's Mansion. West Wing.
On the cornices and arches, there is a bright moonlight.
At night, the courtyard is very quiet, and there is the occasional noisy cry.
A green figure quietly walked on the corridor, and finally stopped in front of Jiang Jingshu's room.
After looking around and confirming that there was no one, the woman gently pushed open the door, and her figure flashed and entered the room.
-
Jiang Jingshu and Mu Tao walked all the way to eat, and before they knew it, they had tasted the night market food, and this night, there were more snacks than Jiang Jingshu had eaten in half a year.
What stinky tofu, what osmanthus cake, what candy man, what sugar gourd, especially the small shop at Dongjiekou, the shop is a sixty-year-old man, very skillful, can make various shapes of marshmallows.
At that time, Jiang Jingshu and Mu Tao each took a small dinosaur and an omelette-shaped marshmallow and ate it with relish.
Jiang Jingshu felt that this moment was the happiest time of her day.
The West Market has always been the liveliest bazaar, but for events large and small, it is the preferred venue. When it comes to Tanabata, we have to mention the Qiqiao Club.
Whether it is a girl in the boudoir or a bride who is married, you can join, and each person has some small objects, such as: all kinds of flowers and fruits, palace rooms, etc. made of colored paper, sesame seeds, grass, rice grains, etc.
As for the offerings, there is one thing that is more special, called "Seven Sister Basin", which is made of paper and has a round shape.
In the basin, there are more paper clothes, fat powder, combing grates and other women's personal things, each with seven copies, taking the meaning of the seventh ranking of the weaver girl.
Every year, Jiang Jingshu must be present at the begging meeting, and she is already familiar with the rituals and etiquette at the meeting. At this moment, she was heading to the temple with Mu Tao.
Suddenly, a stream of people came out of nowhere, enveloping her, and she was forced to keep going, and when she turned back, she couldn't find Mu Tao.
In front of me was a very strange place, beyond the threshold, up the stairs, the door gradually became clear, in the moonlight, the shadow of the pine branches in the door slanted on the screen. It seems to be the back door of the temple.
Jiang Jingshu was standing in front of the door, observing the surroundings, and accidentally noticed a dark shadow on the ground slowly approaching.
She was breathless, then turned around and ran to the side of the path.
The black shadow chased after her for a few miles. Seeing that there was no one in front of her, Jiang Jingshu began to feel fear in her heart.
Unable to run, Jiang Jingshu held on to a big pine tree and gasped, glanced at the side, didn't care much, and decided to go into the woods to hide for a while.
Just as she stepped forward, a cold wind mixed with sandalwood blew by her side, and the next moment, a man in black descended from the sky, protected her behind her, and began to fight with the black shadow chasing her.
Jiang Jingshu was a little stunned, but she heard the man in black in front of her lower his voice and shouted, "Why don't you go quickly?" ”
Only then did he come back to his senses, hurriedly thanked him, and quickly returned the same way when the black shadow clone was lacking in skills.
During this period, the black shadow tried to arrest her several times, but was stopped by the man in black. Seeing Jiang Jingshu disappear completely, the black shadow no longer fell in love, and shot a sleeve arrow, and while the other party was dodging, the figure disappeared into the night.
Jiang Jingshu desperately ran back to the front gate of the temple, feeling that the food she had eaten before was about to vomit out, and the people around her were boiling, seeing Mu Tao's worried face, listening to her words of concern, her body was weak, and it took a lot of effort to stand firm.
With a sigh of relief, Jiang Jingshu said slowly: "Mu Tao, don't talk nonsense after I go back about my disappearance, especially my father." ”
Mu Tao just nodded, "I understand!" As long as you're okay, miss. ”
After tidying up the placket and hair bun, and settling down, Jiang Jingshu and Mu Tao walked into the temple, came to the altar, and stood side by side with Mu Tao, waiting for the predecessors.
The most important part of the begging meeting is nothing more than this.
With his friends, three or two stood side by side in front of the altar, burning incense and praying to the heavens, secretly making a wish.
Or miss her family, or her daughter's thoughts, or hope that she can have the skillful hands of the Weaver Girl, thread the needle, and make a commendable female celebrity.
Originally, tonight was supposed to be a quiet and beautiful Tanabata night.
Soon it was Jiang Jingshu and Mu Tao's turn, and just as they were about to step forward, a figure swept in front of the altar, blocking their way.
The man took a few steps and suddenly turned back, Jiang Jingshu looked up and immediately smiled.
"What a coincidence." Zou Chen smiled faintly.
Jiang Jingshu's face became ugly.
Fang had just experienced the catastrophe of life and death, and at this moment he encountered this evil star again.
On the fifteenth Qixi night of life, is it really going to be completely ruined?
"Miss?"
Mu Tao looked at her face cautiously.
"Well, what a coincidence." Jiang Jingshu smiled awkwardly.
"Come to the begging party?"
Without waiting for Jiang Jingshu to nod, Zou Chen said to himself: "I originally thought that the third lady was different from her daughter's family, but it turned out that she still had some feminine feelings. I saw it below. ”
This sentence made Jiang Jingshu very unhappy.
Reading between the lines, isn't he just not like a woman?
Jiang Jingshu really couldn't swallow this breath, held it for a long time, and said sneeringly: "Qixi Festival is not a men's festival, but you can see His Highness here. His Royal Highness is really in good spirits, and he will not let go of the excitement wherever it is. ”
"The third lady is really sharp-toothed." Zou Chen was not annoyed, "It's dark, let's say goodbye first." Third Miss, please. ”
After a pause, he whispered, "Happy birthday." ”
After speaking, he threw down the stunned Jiang Jingshu and disappeared into the crowd.
"Ahead, are you still leaving? We've all been waiting for a long time. There was a sound of urging behind her, Jiang Jingshu came back to her senses, folded her hands, worshiped the gods, and pulled Mu Tao out of the queue.
