Chapter Ninety-Six: Lantern Festival Lanterns

When Jin Yu returned to Nangong Hou's Mansion, it was already midday, although there was already the sound of chickens crowing in the distance, but the sky was still dark, and the light emitted by the red silk lanterns up and down the Hou Mansion was also weak and weak, as if covered with a layer of fog, listless.

After Jinyu returned to the room, he helped Qianqian change her position, got into the bunk by herself, and fell asleep in the blink of an eye, I don't know why he dreamed of Shen Yunjiao sister and brother this time, they were bloodstained and chased and killed by wicked people. And he listened to it really, Shen Yun was clearly calling his brother.

Before Jinyu could make a move, she was woken up, and when she opened her eyes, she saw that Qianqian had already been freshened up and standing beside her neatly dressed.

"Why are you sleepy like this, hurry up, we are going to give my father tea, today is the first day of the Lunar New Year, it's too late!" Jin Yu settled down before she came back to her senses.

Hurriedly got up and freshened up, wiped his hair with osmanthus oil, combed a shiny high bun, wiped his teeth with tooth powder, rinsed his mouth with tea, cleaned up the bedding and found that a pile of clothes was neatly placed on the soft collapse.

"This is a new coat made for you!" Qianqian said as she picked up her clothes.

Only then did Jin Yu see that Qianqian was obliquely combing a three-ring high bun today, with a tassel hairpin on the middle ring bun, and a pink velvet peony hairpin on the empty bun on one side, red lips and white teeth, and hibiscus flowers pasted between slender long eyebrows, the whole person was indescribably bright and moving.

And wearing an autumn-colored long skirt, the shawl behind him made a graceful arc, and he walked with thousands of manners.

His clothes are royal blue lapels and beards, collar and cuffs, full of twig patterns, jade belts, heroic and compelling, a pair of people standing in front of the bronze mirror like a golden boy and a jade girl.

Qianqian looked left and right, and finally felt that it was appropriate, so they went to the main hall together to serve tea to Zhuo Yinfeng respectfully, and said auspicious words, and Zhuo Yinfeng was rewarded with a big red envelope.

In the next few days, there were many guests in Nangong Hou's mansion, and when he was a little free, Zhuo Yinfeng went out to visit next to each other, all of them were officialdom entertainment, and few of them were sincere. In previous years, Zhuo Yinfeng also brought Qianqian with him, but this year, if he brought Qianqian, he would naturally bring Jinyu with him.

But Jin Yu has not yet reached the point where she can move out of the world in the eyes of Zhuo Yinfeng, but after talking that night, I feel that Jin Yu seems to be a little sincere, and it is not easy to hurt her face under one roof.

It's okay to go out and stay at home by yourself. In this way, Qianqian and Jinyu can only stay at home, Jinyu naturally has no intention of going out, Qianqian has been in a good mood when she comes in, seeing that Jinyu does not go out, and she is not interesting at home, she takes Rue Xiang out to watch the temple fair, watch the lanterns, and return every day.

Jinyu thought that this was just right, Qianqian had guards by her side and didn't have to worry about safety, so she simply painted every day at home, redrawing the appearance of her parents ten years ago on paper with her memory, and drawing a picture for herself.

After the three paintings were completed, they took a break and hid them in the ruined temple, and after two days of viewing, the paintings had been taken away.

According to the system of the Great Zhou, the annual holiday will not be opened until the Lantern Festival on the sixteenth day of the first month. Zhuo Yinfeng's entertainment is busy until the fourteenth day of the first month. After this continuous tossing, Zhuo Yinfeng felt more tired than the previous court.

After the last two days of vacation, Zhuo Yinfeng finally stopped coping with all kinds of polite visits, and took a good rest in his free time. After the New Year's Festival, this is the Lantern Festival, and it is indispensable to look at the lanterns and guess the lantern riddles.

Qianqian has always been raised in the deep boudoir, and Zhuo Yinfeng has been loosely guarded during the holidays all year round, and is allowed to go out for a walk, plus Zhuo Yinfeng has been tired enough recently, and he also wants to send the people in the house out, don't do any games of guessing lantern riddles in the house, all the people are let out to play, and they are so quiet and quiet.

On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, it has just been darkened, and all kinds of lanterns on the streets and alleys have been eager to bloom together, and the handsome men and beauties are all dressed up brightly, talking and laughing all the way is endlessly lively.

Jin Yu accompanied Qianqian, followed by Rue Xiang and a group of slaves, and walked several streets in one night, guessing the lantern riddle according to Jin Yu's brain, and gained a lot along the way. Except for Jinyu and Qianqian, the rest of the people had big bags in their hands and small bags, so they couldn't spare a little time.

There are many people today, the shops on both sides of the street are naturally not closed, although the group is tired but has not thought of going home, Qianqian is in high spirits, saying that it is to find a teahouse to sit in, and then go to the West Market to turn around, and then go back to Nangong Houfu.

Jin Yu hadn't seen the sunspot for a long time, I don't know what news he had found over there in the past few months, at this time not far from the sunspot's tea shop, Jin Yu was tall, standing in the crowd and looking into the distance, he saw the flag of the Yuelai teahouse fluttering in the night wind.

"Let's go to that teahouse and rest!" Jin Yu proposed, "Although it is not as good as Cuiwei Building, it is transparent on all sides, so it is convenient to see the excitement everywhere." ”

In order not to attract people's eyes, Qianqian wore men's clothes today, but she did not change her temper, and nodded softly in agreement.

As soon as a group of people entered the teahouse, the sunspot greeted him, and he hadn't seen Jinyu for a long time, and the sunspot was about to pounce on him with a smile on his face, but when he saw Jinyu constantly making eyes at him, he was followed by a pinky son, and there was a group of people behind him, so he immediately understood.

The smile on his face was a little stiff, but a few loud words choked out of his throat: "Guest officer, please, good tea will come immediately." ”

The group picked up a position by the window, opposite is a jewelry shop, the signboard is written with red paint Tianxiangfang, a group of warblers and Yanyan will surround the shop.

Before the tea came up, Rue Xiang took Qianqian's arm and said, "Miss, that's Tianxiangfang!" The jewelry inside is not only beautiful, but the rouge gouache is a must, I heard that even the queen mother and concubines in the palace are purchased from them! ”

"Is it that good?" Qianqian pursed her lips and smiled, but her eyes were fragrant Tianxiangfang, "But business is really good!" ”

"That's natural, thinking that the queen will use it, ordinary people naturally want to go and see it!"

Looking at Ruxiang's intoxicated gaze, Qianqian reached out and clasped Ruxiang's head and said, "Whoever said it was rare, I think it's almost the same if you want to see it!" ”

Jinyu listened to Ruxiang's words, and didn't know why she always remembered that night when she saw her coming out of Zhuo Yinfeng's room in a panic, buttoning her clothes while walking, her stomach twitched, and she also said: "The queen mother's mother is the best fat powder in the world, even if she doesn't use the fat powder in the world, she is also the best among the people, and it is unspeakably expensive." And Qianqian is gentle and virtuous, a heart is ice and jade, and she is also beautiful and moving without that incense powder. ”

Listening to Jinyu's words, Rue Xiang pouted unhappily: "Miss is hard to come out, I just want Miss to see, my uncle's words seem to be laughing at Rue Xiang kitsch." ”
