Chapter 20: Something Happened
The county lord of Jiayue excitedly pulled Jia Min through the endless crowd, and Chang Changhou and Lin Ruhai, the two flower messengers, dutifully followed.
"Jiayue, you wait! Stop running around and beware of getting separated! Changhou cried out worriedly.
Jiayue naughtily made a face at the head of the road, and pulled Jia Min to continue forward.
Lin Ruhai's face was as black as the bottom of a pot, he came to enjoy the lanterns with Min'er, and he didn't want to be with people who didn't want to do it at all. Last night he planned very well, first go to have a snack with Min'er, then go to the market, and then go to the place where he guesses the lantern riddle to win back all the lanterns that Min'er likes. Who knows, this Jiayue county lord really doesn't understand taste, and he has occupied his Min'er for a night.
Chang Changhou turned his head and saw Lin Ruhai's face, what else did he not understand, and smiled apologetically at Lin Ruhai, "I'll find a way to get my sister away in a while." ”
Lin Ruhai nodded slightly, thought for a while, and said: "I heard that the Hou Ye is looking for Mi Fu's copybook, I have a copy in my collection, and I will let someone send it to the house when I go back." ”
"If Brother Hai is polite, then the little brother will laugh and accept it." Chang Chang Hou smiled like a cat that stole a fishy cat, it was really a good deal, such a small favor, he got a famous notebook, and he would have more dealings with Brother Ruhai in the future.
The two energetic girls in front of them didn't know that they had been calculated, whether they were in the open or in the dark......
Two girls are in a stall to watch the stall owner blowing candy, there is a child in front of him who spent two pennies to ask for a Zhu Bajie, holding it in his hand and loving it, the sweetness of maltose stimulates his taste buds, making him drool, want to take a bite, and reluctant to destroy the sugar man.
The county lord of Jiayue also wanted it, so he turned around and asked his brother for a copper plate, and when the county lord of Jiayue was all focused on the stall owner who was blowing candy, Lin Ruhai took Jia Min's hand and pulled her out of here.
Lin Ruhai pulled Jia Min to the side of the Bianhe River, he was in front, she bowed her head and followed behind, Jia Min's soft and boneless little hands were tightly wrapped by Lin Ruhai, his hands were dry and warm, Jia Min had also been held by Lin Ruhai like this in his previous life, but he didn't have the mood at the moment, excited, embarrassed, and a little nostalgic. She knew that as everyone's lady, she should break free now, but this was the first time in a lifetime, Lin Ruhai held her hand again, she was reluctant to break free, and she didn't want to break free. So, with her head down, Ren Lin Ruhai took her hand and walked on the embankment by the river.
Lin Ruhai is also excited, Jia Min's little hand is like a small glutinous rice dumpling, soft and glutinous, he feels that in this life, no, he will never want to let go of her little hand. He thought that she would break free of his hand, but he held this hand for so long, and she was quiet, his heart was as sweet as honey, and he couldn't help but have a sweet smirk on his face.
I don't know how long I walked, the crowd gradually decreased, Lin Ruhai suddenly turned to face this Jia Min, but what he saw was above her head. Lin Ruhai touched Jia Min's hair with his other hand and asked softly, "Are you hungry?" Shall I take you to eat good ravioli? Jia Min didn't make a sound, just nodded his head, raised his head and gave Lin Ruhai a flower-like smile. Lin Ruhai was stunned for a moment, then squeezed Jia Min's little hand and said, "Let's go, let's go win the lantern after eating for a while." ”
Jia Min glanced at her, "You're really ashamed." ”
Lin Ruhai was not annoyed, but still took her hand and walked towards the place where snacks were sold. Just now, the secret guard reminded him that someone was following him and Jia Min, and he was afraid of danger if he went to a place with fewer people in front of him. If you can't go to a place with few people, then go to a place with a lot of people. He had already signaled the guards to deal with the people who were following them, and he couldn't scare Min'er.
Lin Ruhai took Jia Min to a wonton stall, where business was very good, they couldn't find a seat to sit for a while, so they stood aside and waited.
"How do you know the ravioli are delicious?" Jia Min asked, there were many people here, and someone was already paying attention to the hand they were holding, and she tried to break free, but without success. Inevitably, he glanced at Lin Ruhai again.
Lin Ruhai smiled triumphantly. Said: "I asked the little guy to inquire about which snacks are delicious, where is the most fun and lively shopping, and where the lanterns are the best." ”
Jia Min was moved by his intentions, and smiled at her even brighter, "Thank you!" ”
Lin Ruhai's face was pale, and Jia Min shook his hand, "Not in the future!" ”
Lin Ruhai smiled and said, "Good! There's already a seat, let's sit over there. ”
When the two of them sat down, a middle-aged man came over and greeted, "Guest officer, what flavor of wontons do you two eat?" We have pork and green onions, pork cabbage and pork shiitake mushrooms. ”
"What do you want to eat?" Lin Ruhai asked.
"I'll eat pork and shiitake mushrooms, right?"
"Two bowls of pork and shiitake mushrooms"
The middle-aged man left in response, and Shaoqing brought two large bowls of wontons on a tray and placed them in front of the two of them. Jia Min carefully wiped the spoon clean with a handkerchief and handed it to Lin Ruhai. "I can't eat so much, you help me!" After speaking, he looked at Lin Ruhai with big watery eyes, Lin Ruhai asked Jia Min for the stars and not the moon, how could he refuse, so he divided some from Jia Min's bowl into his own bowl.
The table was small, and the two of them sat opposite each other eating wontons, almost touching their heads, raising their eyes from time to time to give each other a look, as if there was no one else in this world.
After eating the wontons, Lin Ruhai still held Jia Min's hand, and the two walked side by side to the place where the lantern riddle was guessed.
The place to guess the lantern riddle is in an open space in front of the Inviting Moon Tower. The lanterns were made by the merchants, and the literati were invited to write the riddles on the paper, and then pasted them under the lanterns, who guessed it, and removed the paper with the riddles, and finally there were special people to verify, and the answers were correct, and the lanterns belonged to the people who answered the questions, and if the answers were wrong, they pasted the notes back.
When Lin Ruhai and Jia Min came together, there were not so many people who guessed the lantern riddles, but there were still many lanterns that had not been won. Lin Ruhai took Jia Min to walk under each lantern, and then asked, "Which one do you like?" ”
Jia Min pointed to a glass lamp inlaid with gold wire, "How about that?" ”
"Okay, that's it."
"Which one do you like?" Jia Min asked with a smile.
Lin Ruhai looked around, and then pointed to a marquee lantern of eight immortals crossing the sea in the distance, "That marquee is good." ”
"Then I'll guess the lantern, how about you guess the glass lantern?"
"Okay." Lin Ruhai looked at the distance between the two lights, about three zhang, although there are still many people who guess the lantern riddles, he can still run to Jia Min's side in a few steps.
The two walked to the lanterns selected by each other separately, and then looked back at the same time, smiling tacitly.
The riddle on Lin Ruhai's side is: paint white, but black, and type. Lin Ruhai smiled, stretched out his hand to remove the note, and then a young man dressed as a scholar walked over, "Did Childe guess this lantern riddle?" ”
Lin Ruhai turned around and saw Jia Min looking at the lantern riddle, so he turned to the scholar and said, "Yes, but it's a soap word?" ”
"The son is talented, and the little student admires it." The scholar bowed to Lin Ruhai, and then went to pick up the glass lamp.
Suddenly, someone shouted, "It's on fire, run!" The people immediately scattered and the scene was chaotic.
Lin Ruhai heard the shout and immediately turned around and ran towards Jia Min, but there were a few people in front of him blocking his way, he opened the crowd, looked at it again, and watched Jia Min being pulled forward by someone. While gesturing to the secret guards, he struggled to push away the panicked people who were blocking the front, there were too many people, and the scene was too chaotic. Lin Ruhai was annoyed that he shouldn't be separated from Jia Min, for the first time in his life, he regretted that he didn't learn kung fu from a good student, if he had kung fu, if he hadn't separated from Jia Min, he wouldn't have let the gangsters take Jia Min away in front of his eyes, but he was powerless.
Seeing that the crowd was becoming more and more crowded and chaotic, Lin Ruhai felt that there were more and more people blocking him in front of him, but Jia Min was getting farther and farther away from him, and finally lost his figure at the entrance of the small alley in front. Lin Ruhai was anxious, and at this time, the shadow squeezed in front of him, and while helping Lin Ruhai to push through the crowd, he turned his head and said, "Master, it's okay, the subordinates are late, please punish the master!" ”
Lin Ruhai said angrily: "What are you doing here, go and save Min'er!" ”
"Master, don't worry, the dark ten will chase after the dark thirty to fifty, and the master will definitely not have an accident!"
Saying that, the two arrived at the mouth of the small alley where Jia Min disappeared, and the two left the crowd and turned into the small alley, and there was no figure in the small alley.
