Autumn evening came to Jihui Courtyard, very interesting. In addition to learning the rules from Mama Zhou, she almost stayed in her own house, especially when Lin Huaijin returned to the yard, she stayed at home and never came closer. Because Jade was beaten and deducted for a month, Bisi stopped a lot, and didn't dare to make any more trouble. If you ignore the meanness on Bessie's mouth and the fact that Yancao cried a few more times, it can really be said that it was a good year.

It's just that there is no royal reward this year, and the masters are depressed for a while, and they don't even have any fun on the Shangyuan Festival. Even with his subordinates, he was cautious, for fear that he would accidentally become a target for the masters to get angry.

The Shangyuan Festival is always very lively. Thousands of colorful lights on the street reflect each other, and the theater stretches for eight miles, and all countries come to court. After the emperor and queen sacrificed to the "Taiyi God", he climbed the city tower to congratulate the people, and hundreds of officials got up and sandwiched the road, from dusk to dawn, Miss Gongzi wore the most dazzling clothes, and the warbler laughed and laughed, and was happy.

In previous years, Lin Wenjing always accompanied the emperor on the Shangyuan Festival, showing his unique glory, while Zhou took his children and a personal maid to buy the best lantern viewing position. Although he had never seen it, he listened to it lively.

This year, although Lin Wenjing was with the emperor as usual, he heard that the grandfather of the Protector's Mansion would also be with him.

Glory is not glory if it is not alone.

Therefore, Zhou's interest in watching the lights is also very little.

Desheng was still very excited, and when he talked to Cersei, although he tried to suppress it, he couldn't help grinning: "The prince said that when everyone comes back, let's sneak out later." ”

Cersei's eyes lit up: "I want a rabbit lamp." ”

Desheng was a little embarrassed: "Sneak out, how can I buy something?" What do you say when you turn around and let people see it? ”

Seeing that he was embarrassed, Cersei hurriedly said: "I'll just say it casually, but I heard the eldest lady's girl talk about it last year, and I think it's a little rare." When the time comes, I will really see it, and I can't say that I don't like it anymore. ”

Desheng nodded, and Cersei also forgot about it, thinking about sneaking out at night, always feeling that time passed too slowly, and he didn't have the heart to do anything.

But he didn't want Desheng to follow Zhou's trip and came back with a rabbit lamp.

Different from the rabbit lamp that Cerser saw before, and also different from the rabbit lamp that others said in their mouths, the rabbit lamp that Desheng took back was made of glass, and it was heavy in his hand.

Cersei couldn't put it down, knowing that such a delicate lamp must be only available to Lin Huaijin, but he didn't dare to take it for a while.

Desheng was impatient: "Give it to you, take it quickly, this is what the prince of the world got from the prince of Huaihai with a lot of effort." ”

This delicate rabbit lamp immediately turned into a hot potato, and I didn't dare to take it. For Lin Huaijin, it may just be enough to give the objects to her subordinates, but with so many pairs of eyes staring at the house, she can't afford to take a wrong step. What's more—Se Se's heart was sour—she didn't want Yan Cao to be sad.

When Desheng saw her mother-in-law, he was impatient to ink with her, so he insisted on stuffing the lamp into her hand: "The prince said that it was given to you, you will take it quickly, and you will go out in a while, hurry back to clean up and come to the study, and say that you will serve the prince of the world." I've bought the mother-in-law at the corner gate, so let's go through the side door. After saying that, he ran away

Cersei had no choice but to carry the lamp back. This lamp is really good-looking, and it is also really eye-catching. She thought about it all the way, and when she arrived at the door of the house, she happened to meet Yan Cao, who opened the door, and stretched out her hand: "I met Desheng to accompany Shizi back, and I said that I could give you a lamp." ”

The surprise in Yan Cao's eyes suddenly burst out, and it also ignited Sese's emotions: "I'm not dreaming, am I?" The son of the world can give me such a beautiful rabbit lamp! ”

Cersei looked at the excited girl under the full moon, smiled at her excitement and excitement, and her voice became extraordinarily gentle: "It's not a dream, it's not a dream. ”

Yan Cao held the lamp and looked left and right, and then raised her head, with a layer of water in her eyes: "Cersei, I'm really happy......

Cersei hurriedly went up and pulled her: "Look at you, what are you crying about on such a good day." I still have to go to the study to wait, so I packed up and left. But he muttered in his heart, I have to tell Lin Huaijin that I will give away the things rewarded by my master without consent, there was no such rule before.

Yan Cao couldn't hear what Cersei said for a long time, and nodded like a chicken pecking rice: "You go and get busy, you go and get busy." ”

Cersei felt weak and didn't dare to say more to her, so he hurriedly cleaned up and went to the study.

In the study, Lin Huaijin had changed into his usual outfit. The dark robe, simple and without complicated moire, removed all the signs that showed his status. Even so, he is still fresh and handsome, and his appearance is extraordinary. I couldn't help but feel ashamed of myself.

"Desheng stays here to watch, and if someone comes, he will stop him, and if something happens, he will quickly send someone to find us." Lin Huaijin was light, but Desheng was stunned: "Lord Shizi, didn't you say 'let' sneak out together?" He bit the word "we" hard.

Lin Huaijin smiled like a spring breeze blowing willows, but his words were like February ice: "I asked you to tell Cersei, 'let's' sneak out together." You've been out once, what's the regret, and if there's no one here, you'll be discovered soon. Saying that, he patted Desheng on the shoulder and made a demagoguery: "I will hand over this kind of thing to you the most assured, your role is very important, and I will reward you well when I turn around." ”

Desheng broke his face and kept wailing, but Lin Huaijin was unmoved, and dragged himself away. The woman at the side door ate some wine, but she didn't recognize Lin Huaijin, so she only said "Desheng called" and let go.

Cersei was dragged by Lin Huaijin to the street, and as soon as he went out, he felt dizzy. The streets are lit up with fireworks, and the sounds of lion dances and juggling can be heard in the distance. She hadn't seen them since she had been in the house, but they seemed to have always been in the depths of her memory, and all it took was a sound to rush out. She couldn't help but be stupid.

Lin Huaijin took Cersher's hand, only to feel that the hand in his palm was small and slender, but it was still a little thin and his bones were distinct. He looked down at her, only to see her eyes wandering, her nose fluttering, obviously stunned, forgetting that her hand was still being held by Lin Huaijin, so he couldn't help but smile proudly.

Cersei glanced at him, and always felt that he had changed a lot. When I first saw him, he was still a noble son with a look of alienation and loneliness, but now he is a little cunning and willful, more like what he should be at his age. This ordinary dress gave him a bit of a tacky touch, but it didn't hide half of his demeanor, and the stars in the sky were not as bright as his eyes. Cersei saw that he was so happy, but he didn't know what he was thinking, he just thought that he was happy to be able to sneak out to play, and felt some pity in his heart that he was locked up badly, although he was a nobleman, but he was not as free as the people in the market.

"Let's guess the lantern riddle." Lin Huaijin pulled her through the crowd and walked to the downtown area, and bought her a sugar gourd, only to smile so much that her eyebrows were crooked.

"The ancient moon shines on the water and the water flows for a long time, and the water accompanies the spring and autumn of the ancient month. Leave the water to shine on the ancient moon, and the depths of the blue waves are good for boating. Lin Huaijin changed Cersse from his right hand to his left hand, and reached out to unveil it: "Lake." ”

Cersei was also interested, and took the sugar gourd and pointed to the lamp with "gold hoop bucket, silver hoop bucket, open it, hoop can't close": "Snake! Lin Huaijin unveiled the signature, and it was indeed a "snake".

The two talked and laughed, walked and stopped, the riddles of poetry and sentences were not difficult for Lin Huaijin, and all the market sayings were handed over to Cersei, and after a while, they saved a bunch of things in their hands. He ate the rest of the sugar gourd in three or two bites and hugged it happily. Lin Huaijin only felt that he was empty after withdrawing his hand, and couldn't help but regret that he should bring Desheng out so that he could hold something.

The two watched juggling again, and the market was brightly lit as if it were daytime. Cersei divided the prizes among the children in tattered clothes, laughing and laughing with them.

Lin Huaijin had never seen her so happy. On weekdays, she is also happy, but she is not as energetic as she is now. He was a little pitiful: "The rules in the house are bigger." If you hadn't entered the house that day, you would have come to see the lights now. ”

Cersei did not hesitate: "If I hadn't met the son, the slave would have died a long time ago, so what else would I say to watch the light?" Now the slave and maid eat well and sleep well, which is a great blessing for the slave and maid. ”

Lin Huaijin pulled her over and squeezed her hand, thin but soft. She looked up at him, and his smiling appearance was clearly reflected in her black and white pupils, which made him a little hot, and concealed: "How did you give away all the things you won?" ”

She pursed her lips and smiled, and pulled him towards the sparsely populated bridge. The two walked slowly to the bridge, looking at the bustle under the bridge, their cheeks reflected by the lights: "Only after worrying about food and clothing, can you feel the lively atmosphere." If I hadn't entered the house, even if I was lucky enough to survive until now, I was afraid that I was still worried about food and clothing, and where would I be in the mood to see this kind of excitement. So now when I look at this excitement, I am very happy. Those children didn't have the luck of mine, so I wanted to share all my joy with them. ”

She was in a mood for a while, and she left her sense of dignity and humility behind, and her expression was wanton. Lin Huaijin looked at her and couldn't take her eyes off for a while. I only heard her whisper again: "The glass lamp that the prince gave me is very beautiful, but I took it upon myself to give it to Yancao, Yancao her...... Very pleased. She turned her head to look at Lin Huaijin: "Shizi, don't give me such a valuable thing in the future, as far as I am concerned, as long as this stable and prosperous scene is not from now on, I will be satisfied." ”

When the words landed, she felt that the hand under the sleeve robe was grabbed by Lin Huaijin. She smiled, only feeling calm and joy in her heart, and the little sorrow she had after coming to Jihui Courtyard was swept away. She's alive, she's alive and well, and that's enough. For a moment, she felt that her heart was incomparably wide and happy.

His gaze stretched out along the surface of the lake, and everywhere he went, he was bright and splendid. As in previous years, the temple also held a "lantern lighting ceremony", and from a distance, the entire Honolulu was brightly lit. Looking into the distance, the Honolulu under the full moon is shrouded in a halo of light, with the light of the candle flame and the same light as the moon, it is solemn and beautiful. I wonder if the gentle and resolute woman and her son can also enjoy this moment of joy and peace.

I want to be engrossed, but I vaguely feel that there is a line of sight following me, like a shadow. Following that line of sight to the bottom of the bridge, I saw a white-robed man with a long body, hidden in the shadow of a carriage, and disappeared in a flash. In the blink of an eye, I could only see the crowd, and everyone's face was full of joy. Lin Huaijin realized something and asked, "What's wrong?" She was about to answer, but she heard a "bang" and fireworks bloomed in the sky.

The fireworks are like the best colored thread pearls, which are lifted to the sky by the heavenly creation, and bloom in bloom. The petals are like rain, falling down one after another, dazzling. Cersei cheered with the crowd, and soon put that doubt behind him.

The petite and bright girl is still green, and her face is full of light and dark with the fireworks. The noble young man with a beautiful face stood quietly beside her, gentle and affectionate.

"This year's Chinese Valentine's Day, let's sneak out again." The young and soft whispers were scattered by the fireworks and crumpled in the wind.

As fleeting, the last tranquility for this girl.
