In a blink of an eye, it was August 15, which was the Mid-Autumn Festival, but it was also Su Jin's birthday.

Because the day she was born was very good, and it happened to be a festival of reunion, Su Yi ordered someone to set up a large family banquet in the mansion. As usual, when the family gathers, it should be a time for harmony and beauty.

It's just that the atmosphere today is really weird. Next to Su Jin, sitting was Su Wanyue, since she came back from Yufu, Su Jin rarely saw Su Wanyue again. Rao was at the dinner table, she smiled gently and gave her a hand-embroidered sachet, but Su Jin could see that Su Wanyue no longer liked her as a sister.

On the other side, it was Su Yu. After the dispute, she and him seemed to have no intersection again. Even at the dinner table, he smiled faintly, and then apologized that he forgot to prepare a gift.

However, he actually gave a gift. In the hut in the western suburbs, there is also Mr. He, she will go to see Mr. He every ten days or so. She remembered that he said that he had prepared in advance for her birthday. Su Jin sometimes feels that she is very shameless, and while accepting Su Yu's various kindness to her, she also says that she has nothing to do with him.

After dinner, Su Yi allowed them to go to the night market, which was their privilege.

However, after Su Yi left, they also went back to their own courtyards, and in the middle, they didn't even say a word. Chunxue sighed faintly and said, "Miss, how do I feel, you seem to have offended the young master and the second young lady unconsciously?" ”

Su Jin didn't say anything, straightened up and walked towards the east courtyard. Chunxue followed closely and shouted, "Miss, aren't you going out?" ”

"Don't go out." Su Jin's heart was a little stuffy.

"But," Chunxue ran in front of her and blocked Su Jin's way, "Didn't Miss promise the Nine Princes to guess the lantern riddle together tonight?" ”

Su Jin was stunned, and her face was a little bad.

"Miss." Chunxue called tentatively.

"Let's go." She said a faint word, turned around, and walked out.

In the city of Yuzhou, the Mid-Autumn Festival is extremely lively every year. Su Jin and Nangong Ling made an appointment to meet under the willow tree on East Street, and when they arrived at the place, Su Jin saw Nangong Ling from a distance. He stood under a tree, his black hair tied up high, and he was dressed in silver-white brocade. Su Jin brushed the somewhat messy hair in front of her forehead and came to Nangong Ling.

"The Ninth Prince." She bent her knees and blessed her body slightly, and when Nangong Ling saw this, she hurriedly helped her body up.

"As I said, you and I don't need so much politeness between us. All you have to do is call me by my name. ”

Su Jin smiled and looked around, and said, "Tonight is very lively. ”

"Yes," Nangong Ling looked at her, and suddenly pulled out something from his chest. Su Jin looked at the thing in his hand, it was a hairpin, which was very chic. "I know, today is still your birthday, little gift, I hope you like it."

After speaking, he handed it to Su Jin like a treasure.

"Thank you...... Ling Gongzi. Su Jin accepted it, and the corners of her mouth were slightly raised.

On the side, there is a surge of people, and more and more people on the street carry lanterns and laugh and shop in the downtown area. Nangong Ling proposed, "I just saw that the Liu family's shop has hung up the lanterns, let's go over there and have a look?" ”

"Okay." Su Jin lowered her eyes and walked beside Nangong Ling.

It was the best time for everyone to just finish dinner and then go out to the night market. Although Yuzhou City is not as good as Kyoto, it also has its own charm in this small Yuzhou City. When he arrived at Liu's shop, Su Jin saw that there were already many people waiting here. In the Mid-Autumn Festival and Lantern Festival every year, the Liu family shop will hold an activity to guess lantern riddles.

On the stage, the Liu family stepped forward and struck the gong and drum, and said, "Tonight, there will be ten puzzles, and if you answer more than five correctly, you will have a prize. With that, the man clapped his palm, and someone came out from behind the curtain.

In his hand, he was holding a lantern. It's just that this lantern is made in the shape of a lotus flower, and the painting on it is Chang'e running to the moon. Suddenly, the man put the lantern into a box, and perhaps because of the dim light, the lantern emitted a faint light.

Su Jin was stunned for a moment, then heard the Liu family beat the gong and drum again, and said, "Everyone, in this lantern, there is a night pearl, if anyone wins the first place tonight, our store will definitely send this night pearl!" ”

The pearl of the night?! Su Jin was dumbfounded, they all said that the night pearl is a priceless treasure, this Liu family is just a small shop, where can I get such a night pearl? Beside him, Nangong Ling muttered, "Where did the Liu family get this night pearl?" ”

Su Jin looked back and forth, and in the crowd, she saw a person pushing a wheelchair out. Under the moonlight, she vaguely saw that the young master was about fourteen years old, with a faint smile on his face. As he came out, someone came up and put him in the carriage.

"Miss Sue." Nangong Ling called, "What are you looking at?" ”

Su Jin hurriedly retracted his gaze and said with a smile, "It's nothing, speaking of which, the Liu family is really generous this year." ”

Nangong Ling nodded thoughtfully, "Yes, but if Miss Su likes it, I will help you win back that night pearl tonight." ”

"Then it will bother Ling Gongzi, if Ling Gongzi is out of the horse, presumably this night pearl will not be a problem."

Nangong Ling's eyebrows were raised, and she was very happy, the appropriate benefit of Su Jin's hypocritical sycophancy. While the two were still talking, they suddenly heard the little guy laugh and say, "This young man seems to be going to win the first place for the beautiful woman next to him?" ”

"I can't talk about it, I'm idle and bored, just play." The voice was very familiar, Su Jin followed the sound and looked over, and saw that in the crowd, Su Yu was standing there, his mouth raised slightly, and he was always lazy and lazy. She looked at the people next to him again, the girl was looking at Su Yu with her back to her, and she didn't know which girl it was.

Chunxue muttered on the side, "It's the young master?!" There is actually a girl beside him," Chunxue paused, and then said, "But if you think about it carefully, the young master should have a maid in two years." ”

...... of the room Maids? Su Jin pursed her lips, and suddenly felt a little uncomfortable.

"I heard earlier that Su Gongzi is a romantic person, and now he is eleven, and it is not an exaggeration to have a girl by his side, right?" Nangong Ling glanced at him, with a slight sarcasm in his tone.

Su Jin's heart sank and she withdrew her gaze.

"If it's a favorite one, when he reaches the age, I'll ask Daddy to add someone to him in the West Courtyard, and now it's like this, what kind of system!" Su Jin didn't know that his words were quite sour. Fortunately, Nangong Ling didn't notice, he smiled and said, "I'd better win tonight's pearl for the girl first, right?" ”

Su Jin didn't say a word, and her eyes fell on the lamp again.
