On the night of the July 15th Midyear Festival, the bright moon is full and shining.

It just rained a few days ago, and it relieved the heat.

There are many more people who come out of their homes and go to the Jinshui River to put river lanterns than in previous years.

The Jinshui River surrounds the entire capital city of Daxia for a circle, like a jade belt, sparkling, very moving in the moonlight.

And there are all kinds of river lanterns floating in the river, reflecting each other with the stars and moon in the sky.

Wu Chanjuan followed Zhou Huaili sullenly walking on the embankment of the Jinshui River, feeling very depressed.

She was wearing a plain white shirt, a moon-white skirt with a thread, and only a small silver phoenix hairpin was inserted on her head.

Since the Lantern Festival on the seventh day of July, Wu Chanjuan has been sullen.

"Cousin, did it scare you that day? You're not hurt, are you? Zhou Huaili asked with concern.

Wu Chanjuan shook her head, "It's okay." Cousin, I'm just uncomfortable, I'll be fine after a while, cousin don't worry. ”

Zhou Huaili nodded, led her to a secluded river bank, and asked, "Have you prepared a river lantern for your mother?" ”

Wu Chanjuan looked around, frowned, and said, "How did you come here?" I saw that there was a river lantern seller over there, so let's go buy one. ”

Zhou Huaili smiled and clapped his hands.

I saw that on the bank of this somewhat barren river, a river lamp gradually lit up, decorating the riverbank as moving as the Milky Way in the sky.

Wu Chanjuan's eyes widened, and her pair of pupils became more and more charming.

“…… Big cousin, what is this? Her face was both surprised and delighted. It's a little hard to believe. Be amazed to see those river lanterns by the river. looked at Zhou Huaili again.

Zhou Huaili said gently: "These river lanterns are all yours." ”

"Is it mine?!" Wu Chanjuan was pleasantly surprised to walk to the bank of the river with her skirt and squatted in front of a Lianhua River lamp to take a closer look.

I saw that the river lamp was written on it, "Mother Zheng Suxin Yin Harvest." -- Female Wu Chanjuan respectfully. ”

It was the river lantern that Zhou Huaili carefully prepared for her!

Wu Chanjuan was overjoyed, glanced back at Zhou Huaili gratefully, then turned around and picked up the river lantern and respectfully put it into the river.

The position where they stood was upstream, and the river lantern was flowing down the water, into the distance.

Wu Chanjuan went to get another river lantern. The lamp had the same handwriting written on it.

With tears in her eyes, Wu Chanjuan bowed down again and again by the river, and put those river lamps into the river with her own hands.

Zhou Huaili wanted to help her, but she raised her hand to stop her: "Big cousin, let me come by myself." ”

Zhou Huaili stood beside her with his hands tied and looked at her with a smile.

Under the moonlight, Wu Chanjuan was dressed in a white shirt, and her gorgeous little face was not powdered, but it was particularly moving.

……

Jiang Siniang followed her family to watch along the road, and also put a few river lanterns with her own hands.

But just as she was about to leave the riverbank, she heard two men whispering while pointing not far away.

"Look over there. There are so many river lights on the riverbank, so beautiful! ”

"yes. You know what that is? - That's the river lantern that the Thursday prince of the Divine General's Mansion is preparing for the second girl of the Wu family! Pretty! ”

"Huh? That's it—...... alive."

Jiang Siniang's heart moved, looked up at the river lanterns dotted on both sides like stars, and slowly walked over there.

As soon as she left, the two talkers stopped, smiled at each other, and quietly left.

The Jiang family's mother-in-law hurriedly followed.

Jiang Siniang came to that section of the riverbank, but was stopped by two guards.

"This girl, there is something over there for the time being, you can wait a minute." The guard was polite.

Jiang Siniang guessed that they were the sergeants of the Divine General's Mansion, and couldn't help tiptoeing over there to look.

As if sensing Jiang Siniang's gaze, Zhou Huaili, who was standing with his back to this side, suddenly glanced back.

Seeing Jiang Siniang actually standing not far away, Zhou Huaili was stunned for a moment, and then involuntarily walked over and greeted with a smile, "Miss Jiang Siniang." ”

Jiang Siniang smiled, "Thursday Gongzi is so Yaxing." He glanced at the river lantern on the bank of the river again, "What a beautiful river lantern." ”

"Miss Jiang Si smiled." Zhou Huaili nodded, "Do you want to come over and have a look?" ”

Jiang Siniang was a little hesitant, "Is it convenient?" ”

"I'm accompanying my cousin to put river lanterns, what's inconvenient?" Zhou Huaili smiled heartily and stretched out his hand to let the sergeant of the Divine General's Mansion let him go.

Jiang Siniang settled down and followed him.

The maid of the Jiang family hurriedly walked behind her.

The sergeants of the Divine General's Mansion glanced at each other and did not stop them.

When she came to the river bank and stood still, Jiang Siniang saw the handwriting on the river lamp at a glance, and said, "It turned out to be your aunt......"

Zhou Huaili sighed and didn't say anything, just said, "My cousin is a poor person. ”

Although Jiang Siniang has not been in the capital for a long time, she has also heard about the recent events in the mansion of Wu Guogong.

Especially the fact that the famous Grandma Zheng was ruined and abandoned by the Wu family, she also heard about it.

And she also recently heard that the Wu Guogong Mansion has been divided, and Wu Chanjuan's father has lost his position as the son of the world and has been separated.

"Where does Second Miss Wu live now?" Jiang Siniang couldn't help but ask sympathetically.

Wu Chanjuan has no mother, and her father is probably going to continue the strings again.

Zhou Huaili said softly: "My cousin's grandfather loved her very much, and he didn't let her leave the Wu Guogong Mansion with her father, and she still lives there. ”

"Oh. That's good. Jiang Siniang paused and said with a smile: "Then I won't bother you." As he spoke, he turned around and was about to leave.

Zhou Huaili was about to stop her, but Wu Chanjuan had already walked over, stomped her feet, and said coquettishly: "Big cousin! ”

Zhou Huaili had no choice but to turn to look at her, "What's the matter?" ”

Wu Chanjuan seemed to pause when she caught a glimpse of Jiang Siniang's back, and somehow, she was a little unhappy in her heart.

She frowned and said to Zhou Huaili: "Big cousin, I want you to accompany me to put the river lantern!" ”

Zhou Huaili said, "Accompany you." Don't pout your mouth so high! As he spoke, he scraped on her pursed lips.

A tingling sensation made both of them tremble at the same time.

Two blush flew on Wu Chanjuan's face, fortunately in the night. Others can't see clearly......

"Big cousin. Let's go put the river lanterns! Wu Chanjuan grabbed Zhou Huaili's arm. He dragged him to the bank of the river.

Zhou Huaili turned around and saw that Jiang Siniang's back had gone away, and he felt a little strange in his heart.

Wu Chanjuan saw that he didn't belong to him, and became more and more unhappy, pulled him to a place where there was no one on the bank of the river, and said dissatisfiedly: "Big cousin, you said that you came to accompany me to put river lanterns!" ”

Zhou Huaili smiled: "I didn't say it, didn't I?" Oh, you see so many river lights. I gave it to you, and you're still not satisfied? ”

When Wu Chanjuan heard this, she suddenly felt a warmth rising from the depths of her heart, and it quickly steamed upward, ironing her internal organs very properly.

She blinked, looked at Zhou Huaili, and pouted, "Then why are you talking to Miss Jiang Si again?!" ”

"It just happened, it's rude not to speak." Zhou Huaili smiled and bent down, picked up a river lantern from the river bank, and put it in the river. Watch it go down the river.

"But...... But...... Zhou Huaixuan never talks to other women......" Wu Chanjuan muttered in a low voice.

Zhou Huaili's face suddenly looked a little unsightly.

He straightened up and said lightly, "Yes." What a pity. I'm not my big brother, you're looking for the wrong person......" he said, turning around to leave.

"Big cousin! That was not what I meant! Wu Chanjuan was in a hurry, and hurriedly reached out and grabbed Zhou Huaili's sleeve, "Don't go!" Don't be offended! ”

Zhou Huaili's footsteps stopped, but he hadn't turned around yet.

He turned his back to her, and his voice seemed to come from far away.

"Juan'er, you have to think clearly. I'm not my big brother. I will never be as good as my eldest brother, I will not be able to do it without him, nor will I have his high position......"

Wu Chanjuan couldn't help but be smart, she understood that she had said the wrong thing, in a hurry, she grabbed Zhou Huaili's hand and said in a trembling voice: "Big cousin, big cousin, I don't want to compare you with Zhou Huaixuan......"

Zhou Huaili still didn't look back.

This appearance made Wu Chanjuan very frightened.

"Big cousin!" She begged, not knowing how to keep Zhou Huaili from being angry with her.

Zhou Huaili sighed, looked back at her, and kept looking into her charming double pupils.

"Big cousin!" Wu Chanjuan hurriedly wiped her tears, "You're not angry with me?" ”

"I cried again. You weren't a cry before. Zhou Huaili took out a handkerchief to wipe her tears.

Wu Chanjuan burst into tears and laughed, and together with Zhou Huaili, she put the rest of the river lanterns before he was sent back to the Duke of Wu's mansion.

……

A few days later, Zhou Huaili came to the Mansion of Wu Guo to talk to Old Man Wu.

After speaking, he turned to Han Cuixuan, where Wu Chanjuan lived.

As soon as he entered the courtyard, he saw that the window screen of Han Cuixuan was old, a peeled cyan, reflecting the green trees in the courtyard, and it became more and more desolate.

"Second girl, there are only four sets of clothes for this autumn, are you enough to wear them? In the past, when the eldest grandmother was alive, you made ten or twenty sets at a time. This is Wu Chanjuan's voice.

"No need. The rules in the house have always been that the master has four sets of clothes per season, and now I have too many clothes to wear, so why bother with a few sets. Wu Chanjuan's crisp voice came out.

Zhou Huaili took a heavy step.

A bright-eyed maid came out of the curtain and said happily to Zhou Huaili: "It's Thursday when the son is here!" ”

Wu Chanjuan hurriedly greeted her, "Big cousin! ”

She looked at him and smiled, her cheeks glazed.

Zhou Huaili walked into her room with a smile, said a few gossips to her, and left.

However, not long after he left, the subordinates of the Shenjiang Mansion carried a few gifts to the Wu Guogong Mansion, saying that it was an autumn gift from the eldest aunt and grandmother of the Shenjiang Mansion to Wu Chanjuan.

Wu Chanjuan saw that there were dozens of good clothes, as well as fur materials, and her heart was fluttering.

Did my eldest cousin hear us? - She wondered to herself.

……

In the Furong Willow Pavilion in the inner courtyard of the Divine General's Mansion, Grandma Wu San reprimanded Zhou Huaili dissatisfiedly: "You are not small! Dare to send something to Juan'er in my name! ”
