Chapter 13: The Begging Festival

Tao Yao's thoughts drifted far, far away, and Lin Rui also hugged her for a long, long time.

"Senior brother." It was Tao Yao who opened his mouth first.

I only heard Lin Rui's voice reply coldly: "Huh? ”

"It's sleepy." Yes, Tao Yao is very sleepy, and she can't sleep all the time being held like this, which is really hard.

Lin Rui smiled, very helpless, scratched her nose, and was very spoiled: "Pig, sleep." ”

He let her lie on his lap, pillowing this human pillow, maybe really tired, Tao Yao threw away all those messy thoughts, and fell asleep in a daze.

She had a dream, and in the dream, there were feathers that kept teasing her face, tickling, and very uncomfortable.

On the second day, when Xiaolan came to wake up Taoyao, Lin Rui had already left.

"Princess, Gongzi Lin instructed the slave maid to call you up early today." Xiaolan said.

"What's wrong?" He always arranges what she wants to do and what she can't do, but she can only obediently obey, which is really helpless.

"Hey, princess, today is the Day of Beggars." Xiaolan said happily.

"I think Lin Gongzi is going to take you down the mountain to play."

Tao Yao never remembers the day, what does this lover's holiday have to do with her? But Lin Rui took her to the bottom of the mountain to watch the lantern festival every year.

This year may be different.

Sure enough, the little junior brother came over early in the morning.

"Senior sister, senior brother said that after lunch, I and your imperial sister will take you to the bottom of the mountain, you are finally willing to take me on this year's begging festival, I am so happy!" He said with great interest.

"Oh, really?" Tao Yao was not interested.

"Senior sister, you are dressed well today, Xiaolan really has a hand." Ah Li really always has endless topics.

In previous years, Lin Rui only took Taoyao down the mountain. This year, the royal sister is here, and the threesome is embarrassing, so it is good to call the little junior brother, and he will not be cold when he is chattering.

"Ah Li, you are really like a little sparrow." Seeing him funny, she also unconsciously quipped.

But he flattened his mouth: "Hmph! Senior sister, you are really unkind. ”

To be honest, Tao Yao envies him very much, and he can always speak his heart openly. To be happy is to be happy, and to be uncomfortable is to be uncomfortable.

"Let's stay and eat together, I'll ask Little Lando to prepare two bowls and chopsticks." She left him to eat with her.

"Okay, the food here is very delicious!" He was very happy.

Tao Yao didn't often stay with Ah Li to eat, because Lin Rui was not happy that she was doing this.

I remember that I tried to stay with Ah Li for dinner a few times before, but he was miserable by Lin Rui, Lin Rui's black fox with a belly, Tao Yao really couldn't do anything about him.

After lunch, Lin Rui came, and when he saw that the little junior brother was also there, his expression was a little harsh, but he didn't say anything.

Tao Yao despised him for this kind of behavior, he was such a big person and still worried about a child everywhere, it was really not a gentleman's act.

However, Lin Rui has never been a gentleman.

Soon after, a group of four people got into the carriage and went down the mountain together, in the carriage, the five emperor sisters kept watching Lin Rui without speaking, and Lin Rui also closed his eyes and recuperated, and the atmosphere was very embarrassing.

Looking at his tired pale face, Tao Yao guessed that he had not slept all night last night.

The car was not quiet, the little junior brother was talking to himself, and Tao Yao occasionally nodded and reacted.

Tao Yao thought that she was really kind to this little junior brother who was chattering, and the appearance of the other two people who turned a blind eye was simply killing the flowers of the motherland.

By the time they arrived at the market, it was already evening. Ah Li grew up in the mountains, rarely went down the mountain, and felt new to everything when he looked at it.

Lin Rui and the imperial sister walked side by side, and the talented and beautiful women were very eye-catching. The little junior brother ran around and looked left and right, and Tao Yao followed closely to prevent him from getting lost.

Suddenly, Ah Li saw a group of people in front of him, so he came up curiously, and Tao Yao also followed him, and it was people who were guessing lantern riddles.

Maybe the crowd surrounded Ah Li and walked too fast, Tao Yao and he were separated from Lin Ruihuang.

However, Tao Yao is also very open in her heart, and it is good to let them be alone, and the five emperor sisters must be eager in their hearts.

Ah Li felt very novel when he saw Qiqiao Lantern for the first time, and kept pestering Tao Yao to guess the lantern riddle for him. She was very helpless, this Ah Li was a child's heart after all, so she responded.

The lantern riddle "double lovers red line pull" typed a word.

Tao Yao thought for a while and replied: Pairs of lovers walked together because of the pull of the red line, and they were reluctant to separate, for "纟 + double + double = embellished".

The riddle boss was shocked: The girl is good at learning, this begging lamp will be given to you, I wish you and the person you love and love, and grow old together.

Tao Yao sneered in her heart, she was unintentional, how could she be kind and loving, and grow old together?

Ah Li was very happy to get the lamp, but he found that he and Lin Rui were separated.

"Senior sister, why are they gone? Did you secretly leave us on a date? ”

Tao Yao replied solemnly: "Yes, this beautiful day, let's not disturb the good things of our senior brother." ”

I saw him sigh: "I still want to follow my senior brother to put a beggar lantern." It's okay, it's the same with my sister. ”

Tao Yao laughed and said: "Xiao Ah Li, do you know that this begging lamp is to be put by lovers and men together." ”

He smiled brightly: "I also have a deep relationship with my senior brothers and sisters. ”

Children are very simple, their feelings are feelings, and they do not carry other impurities.

Tao Yao stroked his head: "Let's go, let's go to the river and put the lights." ”

There are many men and women who put lights together by the river, looking at their love and wishing, Tao Yao smiled lightly, it is really rare to have a lover.

Ah Li also followed their example, lit the lamp and put it in the water, closed his eyes to the lamp and made a wish.

Looking at him, Taoyao's heart was very gratified, and suddenly there seemed to be a gaze looking at her, and when she looked up, it was the young master He who had not been seen for a long time?

I saw him holding He Jing and looking at Tao Yao across the river, and his eyes were very surprised.

She met his gaze, her face calm, just met, she and them were just passers-by after all.

Ah Li took Tao Yao away after putting on the light, he walked around happily, and seemed to have forgotten to be separated from Lin Rui and them.

Seeing his happy appearance, Tao Yao's mood also became a little happy, and sure enough, this happiness is contagious.

Suddenly, she was bumped into by someone, only to hear the person quickly apologize, and Tao Yao also calmly replied not to worry.

But when she turned around, Ah Li's figure was gone.

This is the first time Ah Li has gone down the mountain, and he doesn't know anything about the outside world, Tao Yao secretly blames himself in his heart: it's really bad, he should be told not to wander around, and to follow him well.

Tao Yao hurriedly looked for him everywhere, but how lively the street of this begging festival was, it was like looking for a needle in a haystack to find him.

Tao Yao was in a hurry, and suddenly someone grabbed her hand from behind, she reflexively resisted, turned around, and met the demonic face of Young Master He.

I saw him smiling very good-looking: "Don't come to harm, Tao Yao!" ”

Tao Yao sneered: "Long time no see, Young Master He." ”

"The title of princess can be tormented by the grass people." It seems that he already knows her identity.

Tao Yao had no intention of dealing with him, and just wanted to find Ah Li as soon as possible.

"I'm sorry, I still have important things to do at the moment, so don't leave it at that!"

His good-looking phoenix eyes narrowed: "Are you looking for the boy who is with you?" ”

"Do you know where he is?"

"I don't know." He said these four big words very politely.

The corners of Tao Yao's eyes twitched, this person is really underwhelmed.
