Chapter 11 The Night of Lights
The ladies and ladies who were still talking just now were silent at the moment when the ancestor was angry.
Now, if you were standing in this Spring Peach Pavilion, you could even feel the air freeze, so quiet that you could even hear what the person next door was saying.
The old ancestor calmed down his mood, took a sip of tea, frowned, and said to everyone: "I have already said that we are a family, so no matter what happened before, from today onwards, we will not be to blame for the past; If our Su family is not united, then when something really happens, no one will be able to help us speak except ourselves. ”
The old ancestor glared at Su Jinruo fiercely and said, "Especially in this situation, Jinxi is going to take the exam on behalf of the Su family soon, and since I have already decided on this matter, I must not change it." ”
Su Jinruo was so frightened that she trembled, but she lowered her head and didn't dare to speak. The others looked at each other, some lowered their heads and drank tea, and some like Shen Mengjun, who could only lower their heads to keep themselves from laughing.
Shen Mengjun thought to herself: "Hmph, this dead girl really doesn't know how to pick a time, and she actually finds trouble with Jinxi at this time, not to mention that the ancestor said before he came to dinner that he must not sow discord and intrigue, didn't she make it clear that she hit the muzzle of the gun?" ”
Shen Mengjun took a sip of wine: "This drunken flower brew is a little better than just now." It's really happy, Jin Ruo is deflated, and the good-faced lady naturally can't hold it on her face. ”
Sure enough, as Shen Mengjun expected, the eldest lady immediately stood up to relieve the embarrassing atmosphere and relieved her daughter: "Old lady, please don't be angry, it's all my fault, my goddaughter has no way, it's Jinruo who doesn't understand the rules, she swept the ancestors' Yaxing, she drank too much wine before talking nonsense, please don't mind the ancestors!" ”
The old ancestor said: "That's it, I won't think today's incident happened, but let's say it first, if anyone dares to find trouble with Jinxi before the exam, it will be impossible to get along with my old lady, and when the time comes, don't blame me for turning my face and not recognizing people." ”
The eldest lady borrowed the slope to get off the donkey: "Yes, follow the old lady's teachings, we know." Then he immediately turned his head to look at his daughter: "Dead girl, haven't you thanked the old lady for sparing you generously, what nonsense?" ”
Jin Ruo's face was pale and said, "Thank you...... Thank you, old lady. ”
The old lady said: "Okay, okay, today is a happy day, don't make all those messy things, let's eat and admire the moon, and those who are willing to watch the lanterns and enjoy the flowers can move freely, but at least one lady or someone else will accompany them." If the others are tired, they will follow me back to Sufu after eating. ”
Everyone replied, "Yes." ”
Jin Xi snickered and thought: "Heh, this Jin Ruo and Zhao Yunlan are really good at acting, one sings with a red face and the other with a white face, isn't this double reed still a bad performance in the end?" As long as the old lady doesn't die, they don't dare to be too arrogant. Now I can sit back and relax. ”
After three rounds of wine, five flavors of food, everyone ate and drank.
The group was about to leave Jiweixuan, and Zhuang Qingming saw him off at the door: "Old Mrs. Su go slowly!" I'll come back next time! ”
The old lady said, "Hehe, today's food and wine are still as satisfying as before!" How can I not come? Okay, okay, Steward Zhuang, the old body is really a little tired, so I will leave first. ”
Su Jinxi said to Liu Yu'e: "Mother, I don't want to go back for the time being, it's still early, can you accompany me to go shopping?" ”
Liu Yu'e said: "Well, yes, it's also an annual event, how can I refuse to cherish my son?" ”
Su Jinxi smiled and said, "Thank you, mother!" The two said hello to the old ancestor and prepared to go to the night market to relax.
The night market in the city is very lively, especially on the night of this lantern festival, Liu Yu'e and Jin Xi were strolling around the street market, the two were dazzled, and all kinds of rare gadgets appeared in front of the two of them.
All kinds of snacks, jewelry and colorful lanterns made Jin Xi's bad mood swept away, Jin Xi said to Liu Yu'e: "Mother, let's get out once, if you have something you want, just tell me, let's pick one and take it back as a souvenir." ”
Liu Yu'e didn't look very happy: "What happened just now, I think it shouldn't be accidental......
Of course, Jin Xi knew what Liu Yu'e was talking about: "Oh, mother, you mean what happened to Jin Ruo during the meal just now, right?" ”
Liu Yu'e nodded and said, "Well, I'm worried that she will be unfavorable to you in the future, and I think she must not be able to get out of the matter before." ”
Liu Yu'e's brows were still locked.
Jin Xi said: "Mother, you can rest assured, the child will have his own way when the time comes." However, Jin Xi also understands that she really cares about herself, so she will show that she cares so much.
Jin Xi dragged Liu Yu'e to the side of the small bridge, wanting Liu Yu'e to change her mood: "Mother, don't worry anymore, I know you are for my good, but now there is an old lady in charge of us, besides, it is rare to celebrate the festival today, let's be happy!" ”
Jin Xi and her mother came to the small bridge, and saw that many people put down lanterns in the water, each lantern has different shapes, but they are all burning candles, flickering in the dark water, and drifting into the distance along the current.
Jin Xi smiled and said to Liu Yu'e: "Mother, haven't we come out together to put lanterns together for a long time, let's put them together again today!" ”
Liu Yu'e said: "Well, okay, I'll accompany Xi'er to release." ”
The two walked up to the vendor who sold lanterns: "Boss, how much does this lantern cost?" ”
The peddler smiled: "Oh, this eldest lady, I have ten cents for this lantern." Take your pick. ”
In the end, Jin Xi chose a delicate small lantern in the shape of a lotus, and Jin Xi said to Liu Yu'e: "Mother, is this good-looking?" ”
Liu Yu'e said: "Well, all the ones you choose are good-looking. ”
The two smiled and walked to the water's edge, found a place with few people, lit the lanterns, and prepared to make a wish.
Jin Xi rolled up her sleeves, stretched out her white and slender arms, put the lantern in the water, Jin Xi said to Liu Yu'e: "Mother, let's make a wish!" ”
Liu Yu'e said: "Okay, my wish is that I hope your father can return as soon as possible." You might want to! ”
Jin Xi put her hands together on the top of her head, her wish was naturally revenge, and at this time, a white light flashed in the night sky, blooming into colorful fireworks.
"Look, it's time to set off fireworks!" Liu Yu'e said, and Jin Xi also replied: "Well, yes, it's beautiful." ”
Fireworks lit up in the night sky one after another, blooming with colorful light, and also reflected on Jinxi's fair and stubborn face.
