Chapter 47: Ancestor Worship (7)
When Dongfang Yu came back with the golden bell, the people in the living room were stunned, they probably didn't expect that Dongfang Yu would come back, Dongfang Yu just glanced at a few people at the main table, took the golden bell and sat down on the seat, and then ordered someone to take the dishes and chopsticks again.
The woman didn't dare to say anything, for fear that Dongfang Yu would run away if she was unhappy, and she couldn't even see it.
Jin Ling was really hungry, she took the bowl and continued to eat, Dongfang Yu disliked it while serving her vegetables, and let people pour water over, "Eat!" Dongfang Yu said in a low voice.
A group of stunned people found their gods and continued to eat, and then nothing happened, after Jin Ling finished eating, Dongfang Yu looked for Dongfang Che to have something to do, and let Jin Ling play by himself.
Jin Ling thought that it was still early to go to bed, and was about to find Qin Moli to pull the table to play mahjong, but after knocking on the door for a long time, there was no reaction at all, "It's strange, where is the eldest lady?" ”
"Don't leave him and Ah Yuan to go out, and there will be lights in the village today." The woman said softly.
Jin Ling looked sideways, and then said, "Then I won't bother." ”
The woman's eyes were lonely, "I heard that Yu'er cares about you very much, Yu'er, this child has been strong since he was a child, and everything is stuffy in his heart, one day he said something to make you angry, don't take it to heart and don't be sad, he must be more sad than you." ”
Jin Ling was silent for a while, and said, "Madam, who are you?" ”
The woman chuckled lightly, very gently, "My name is Qi Xiu, and I am the wife of the previous head of the Dongfang family. ”
"Daddy of the East? So you're his mother? After saying that, Jin Ling felt that it was wrong, didn't she remember that the Dongfang family did not have a housemother surnamed Qi? There is only one surname Jun, and Dongfang Yu's mother is obviously called Jun Qingci.
Qi Xiu shook his head, "I'm not his mother, Yu'er and Che'er were picked up by their father when they were nine years old, and the two children were small at that time, and they were very cute with me." He laughed out loud.
Jin Ling didn't understand it very much, Dongfang Yu didn't grow up in Dongfang's house since he was a child, so where did he live before? What about his biological mother?
Qi Xiu was still talking to herself, "Yu'er, this kid, since he was a child, his talent has been the highest among his peers, because he didn't grow up in his own family, so when he came back, the two brothers were always excluded, but fortunately, the two of them were angry, Ling'er, Auntie told you this, just to let you know that Yu'er is not easy, he actually chose you, you will have a good life." ”
"Well, we're pretty good." Jin Ling said a little embarrassed.
"I know that in the past, once Yu'er lost her temper, no one could persuade her to come back, including Jiang Xue. Only you can. Qi Xiu said lightly.
"If you say that, I will be proud, by the way, Jiang Xue is Qin Jiangxue, what was their relationship before?" Jin Ling reacted and asked, knowing that the two of them are not simple, if you are an Oriental Emperor, you will hold on to her, and your own will not happen, how can there be such a good thing?
Qi Xiu knew that he had lost his words, so he hurriedly remedied, "Yu'er and Jiang Xue used to be lovers, but Jiang Xue broke up with Yu'er in order to inherit the Qin family. "Still when the Dongfang Royal Ring was taken out to propose, she didn't say anything later, for fear that Jin Ling would be violent and take a knife to fight with Dongfang Yu.
Jin Ling was unhappy in her heart, and snorted coldly, "Big guy, he's quite hot." ”
Qi Xiu snorted and laughed, her eyes were very gentle, and said, "Don't worry, Ling'er, Yu'er only has you in her heart." ”
Jin Ling snorted a few times, recognized it, and then said, "Then, since you are his...... Auntie, why is he like that? "It looks like you don't have him.
"Yu'er resented me in his heart, he felt that it was because of me that his mother fell into that situation." Qi Xiu said.
"Huh?" Jin Ling looked confused, there are so many dramas in this big family.
"In the future, Yu'er will tell you in person, I'll leave first, and Yu'er will come to you in a while, and I will be unhappy to see me." Qi Xiu said and turned to leave, Jin Ling was still depressed, why was Dongfang Yu looking for her? Do you want to play mahjong? Just as I was thinking about it, I saw Dongfang Yu coming.
When he saw Jin Ling standing at the door of Qin Moli's room, his face immediately turned bad, "What are you doing there?" ”
"Huh? I'm looking for the eldest lady to play mahjong. What's wrong? Jin Ling asked.
Dongfang Yu probably felt that he was thinking too much, and coughed a few times, "It's nothing, let's go." ”
Jin Ling walked to him and asked, "Where are you going?" ”
"Just follow along, where is all this nonsense?"
Jin Ling honestly followed him out of the door, only out of the gate, the outside has been hung with lanterns, all the way to the main street, the road here is a bluestone road, the road is planted with plane trees on both sides, because it is winter The tall plane tree is only a bare tree, and there are six lanterns of the same size hanging on the branches, Dongfang Yu took Jin Ling's hand to the river at the end of the main street, people came and went along the way, everyone had a lamp in their hands, different shapes and sizes, children wore thick cotton clothes and carried lanterns to chase, laughing and laughing, In the bustling crowd, there were stalls selling lanterns, Jin Ling was dazzled, she pointed to the high platform in the distance, and asked, "What is that place?" It was the first time she had seen it, and before Qianye had finished worshipping her ancestors, he would only leave her in the room and never let her go out, so she naturally didn't know.
"After worshipping the ancestors, there will be a lantern festival, praying for the Haiyan River to be clear, and soothing the grievances of all souls, similar to the sacrifice, that is the altar." The Oriental Imperial General took the lead in his arms.
"That's why there's a light?" Jin Ling asked.
"The lamp will carry the souls who can't find the way in the yang world, and they will enter the underworld and then be reincarnated by the light and guidance." Dongfang Yu rarely didn't laugh at Jin Ling's stupidity, and he was unexpectedly very talkative.
Jin Ling nodded, and then saw Qin Moli and Dongfang Yuan carrying lanterns in the crowd, "Miss, where are they, huh?" When did he have such a good relationship with Ah Yuan? Jin Ling was puzzled.
Dongfang Yu didn't plan to go over, he walked forward with the golden bell and said, "Start with you telling ghost stories to scare him." "That stinky boy pestered Dongfang Yuan to sleep with him, even if Dongfang Yuan guaranteed absolute safety in Dongfang's house, he was still afraid, and in the end, Dongfang Yuan had no choice but to find him, Dongfang Imperial General Qin Moli was much better after cleaning up from beginning to end, and his relationship with Dongfang Yuan was also much better.
"Aren't we going to go?" Jin Ling asked, she still wants to make an appointment with the eldest lady to play mahjong.
"No, let's go." Dongfang Yu pulled the person away, didn't pull it for a long time, looked sideways, and saw Jin Ling staring at the lantern not far away in a daze, "What are you looking at?" ”
Jin Ling pointed to the lantern not far away and said, "Why don't we buy one in the east, you see so many people, but we don't have one." ”
"You're going to buy it yourself." Dongfang Yu was not interested in this kind of child-like and girlish thing, Jin Ling hesitated for a while, and said, "Then, you give me money?" "The reason why Jin Ling didn't run to buy it was because she had no money and was poor.
Dongfang Yu snorted impatiently, pulled her closer to the stall, and said, "Take one yourself." ”
The peddler saw that there was business, and it was still such a good-looking pair, and he strongly recommended the most expensive one in his stall, Jin Ling looked at it for a while, then pointed to the phoenix lantern on the top and said, "That's it." ”
The peddler smiled and said, "Madame, this is the most beautiful of my stall." As he said that, he was about to get it, but Dongfang Yu stopped him, and he took another rabbit-shaped one and said, "I want this." ”
Jin Ling looked at the stupid fat rabbit and said, "Why? ”
Dongfang Yu chuckled, "Like you." ”
Jin Ling looked at him and laughed, Dongfang Yu chuckled, reflecting the thousands of candles behind him, only Jin Ling was reflected in his eyes, he put the lantern into Jin Ling's hand, and took her other hand to leave the stall.
After being pulled away, Jin Ling came back to his senses, looked at the fat rabbit in his hand, and then looked at Dongfang Yu, "Where are you going?" ”
Dongfang Yu didn't answer her, he led her all the way to the round altar, the altar stood in the center of the river, and the ground had a complex formation pattern, Dongfang Yu took the lantern in the hand of the golden bell and put it aside, he covered the hand of the golden bell with both hands and whispered the incantation, the golden bell did not dare to come out, the incantation was read for a while, Dongfang Che came up and handed them a Kong Ming lantern, Dongfang Yu took the lamp, and said: "Golden bell." ”
"Huh?" Jin Ling hurriedly grabbed the other side of Kong Ming's lantern, and looked at the people who were close at hand with wide eyes.
"Do you have a wish you want to fulfill?"
Dongfang Yu's voice was warm and demagogic, and it reached Jin Ling's ears.
Wish?
She hopes that Dongfang Qian can also get rid of the curse and enter reincarnation, she hopes that it is best to never see the sun by relying on the sky lantern, and she also hopes that the person in front of her will be safe and happy in his life.
Dongfang Yu and Jin Ling let go at the same time, Kong Ming Lantern flew into the sky slowly, Jin Ling looked up and stared at it, and soon one, two, three...... Countless Kong Ming lanterns rose into the sky after that, almost instantly, and the lights in the sky were like falling stars, and they illuminated the sky exceptionally brightly.
"Do you want to know how many lights there are?" Dongfang Yu asked suddenly.
Jin Ling withdrew her gaze from the sky and looked at him, "How much?" ”
Dongfang Yu suddenly came over, Jin Ling looked at the face that was getting bigger and bigger in front of her, until there was a soft touch on her lips, her eyes widened in surprise, Dongfang Yu stretched out his tongue and licked her lips, then let go of her, hugged the stunned person into his arms, and whispered in her ear: "I can't kiss, it's stupid." ”
Jin Ling's face was red, she hammered Dongfang Yu's back, and said, "Old rascal! ”
The old hooligan Dongfang Yu pulled someone to pick up the fat rabbit and got off the altar, after putting the Kong Ming lantern, the adults went back with the children, and there were only people with boyfriends or girlfriends left on the street, Dongfang Yu saw that the time was not early, and was ready to go back to sleep with the golden bell, the latter was not sleepy at all, and she even wanted to put the river lantern.
Dongfang Yu blackened his face and forcibly took the person back, "I said no, it's time to sleep." ”
Jin Ling retorted, "The nightlife has just begun, have you entered the old age life in advance?" ”
"Jin Ling, have you forgotten whose territory you are in? Why don't I go back and let you see if I'm an old man or a young man? Dongfang Yu said that there was some ambiguity in the end, Jin Ling was alarmed in his heart, and immediately said obediently: "It's time to sleep, you can't think about anything unhealthy, and you can't do it!" "Saying that he ran away with his buttocks, Dongfang Yuxiao followed behind badly, what a stupid!
