Warm yellow light, dappled shadows of trees. Li Qingyi stood sideways, smiling heartily, like a cloud that had been covering the sun for a long time suddenly being washed away by the sun, and the fresh breath seemed to make the dead wood spring and all things grow.

It was the first time Qin Zeng had seen her laugh like this, and he couldn't help but be stunned.

Of course, this is also the first time that Li Qingyi has laughed so arbitrarily since returning here. On weekdays, she always looks calm and light, and she is not very moved by everything, even if she encounters happy things, she only smiles slightly, but she has never been like this.

The prince was also looking at the girls with their masks lifted above their heads, chasing and laughing, and holding in their hands the food sold by the street stalls, among which was the stupid girl he had met in the Merlin that day.

He raised his eyebrows and smiled, "Who is that girl?" ”

When Qin Zeng heard this, he followed the prince's gaze and saw that he was not looking at Li Qingyi, but looking at Li Miaoran with interest.

He couldn't help but smile when he thought of the "daughter of the Li family" that Princess An Cheng said.

"Your Highness wants to know, why don't you ask yourself."

The prince's face was flat, and he said, "How can Lone take the initiative to get close to a woman?" ”

Qin Zeng sneered, "I hope Your Highness will remember today's words." ”

The prince disagreed, "Lone can naturally remember!" ”

He glanced at Li Miaoran, snorted, turned his head and left.

In the shallow waters of Yuanshui, there are still many people who have not dispersed, and the surroundings are full of people with lights, groups of three or five, each standing in one place talking, talking and laughing.

Lu Wu lit a river lantern in his hand and handed it to Li Qingyi, and said, "The girl may have a wish." ”

Although Li Qingyi didn't think that this river lantern could fulfill his wish, he was very willing to join in the fun, and stretched out his hand to take it to the water's edge.

"Do you still believe this?"

When Li Qingyi heard this voice, he turned around in surprise, and saw a tall man walking towards him, it was Qin Zeng.

It's just that his outfit today is different from usual, and the dark clothes on his body have also been changed to azure Shu brocade robes, with a Dongzhu purple jade belt tied around his waist, a cloud-patterned five-bat jasper pendant hanging from his side, and half a silver mask on his face to cover his eyebrows.

Li Qingyi was surprised, this noble son's dress was naturally romantic and handsome.

But the other party's temperament is beyond ordinary people, so that he still looks different from the usual son of the family in the splendid pile, like an immortal who has come down to play, just a little less cold than usual, and more approachable.

She said strangely: "Adults dressed like this? Is it to hide people's eyes? ”

Qin Zeng replied differently: "What, isn't it good-looking?" ”

Li Qingyi rolled her eyes in her heart, how could it not be good-looking? But if he doesn't dress up on weekdays, it's enough to attract bees and butterflies, and today, he can't take a peach blossom one step at a time? She swept her eyes, and sure enough, there were many little ladies around her, but fortunately, Qin Zeng covered his eyebrows with a mask, and others couldn't see his appearance.

Li Qingyi secretly slandered himself, laughed dryly, and asked rhetorically: "Adults still care about this?" ”

Qin Zeng didn't hear her answer, he snorted, and also took a river lantern from Chang Ze's hand.

Li Qingyi was so shocked that his jaw was about to dislocate: "Adults also believe this? ”

"Why, do you care so much whether this king believes it or not?"

Li Qingyi's eyebrows trembled, why does this man always have to speak with a lot of energy?

She snorted, turned around and left: "Don't care! ”

Seeing that Qin Zeng's face was suddenly like a dark cloud, Chang Ze almost laughed out loud, and hurriedly took a step back, afraid that the master would see his expression.

However, among the guards, after all, there were people who didn't hold back, and the poof, which was particularly prominent.

Qin Zeng didn't look back, and said coldly: "Punish me for half a year." ”

The guard suddenly couldn't laugh anymore, and looked at Chang Ze with a sad face.

Nagasawa glanced at him seriously, and said with his eyes: Who told you that you couldn't control your mouth?

On the water, more than 10 splendid carved beams float on the water, and the singing of the female singer is clear and sultry, following the water and the wind, flowing into the ears of the people around. The tulle and palace lamps on the eaves of the ship brought out a cloud of hazy and blurred light and shadow. In contrast, the dim bean-like candlelight on the river lamp looks incomparably small.

Li Qingyi looked at the river lamp that belonged to him, drifting away and drifting away, and there was an indescribable feeling in his heart.

Seeing her expression, Qin Zeng suddenly handed her river lantern to her and said, "You are not a weak spark, so why bother to be sad because of this, just join in the fun." ”

Li Qingyi turned her head in surprise when she heard this, looking at the man standing beside her, Qin Zeng was praising her?

She looked down at the river lantern in her hand, her depressed mood suddenly collapsed, and she smiled: "What the adults said is true." ”

Qin Zeng hooked his lips and watched her step forward and put his river lantern into the water as well.

The river lantern staggered forward, and soon caught up with Li Qingyi's one, the two lamps collided together, and the light and shadow reflected in the water suddenly shone brightly.

*****

Mu House.

Sister Mu Yan and Mu Wan came back like soup chickens, which alarmed Mrs. Mu, and the third lady was even more frightened and lost her three souls and seven souls, until she saw that her two daughters were still alive.

"How do you serve your masters! Such carelessness! ”

The girl knelt on the ground, frowning and unable to even refute it.

The shallows of the river, even if you step into the river, you can't drown people, this kind of thing has never happened.

When everyone first arrived at the river, there was no wind and no waves, otherwise there would not be so many people gathered there to put lights, who would have thought that suddenly there would be a few big waves.

"Mother, don't blame them, it happened suddenly, and there was no time to react."

Mu Wan took a hot bath and changed her clothes, and drank ginger soup in time, although she sneezed repeatedly, her spirit had recovered, and when she came out, she saw that her mother Nian was reprimanding the girls, so she spoke out to defend them.

Nian's heart palpitated, and he glared at them fiercely, "Fortunately, the girl is fine, otherwise you have a few lives to accompany you!" For the sake of your dedication to serving on weekdays, I will punish you for half a year's monthly routine, and have a long memory! ”

"Yes, the slaves know that they are wrong......

The two girls looked at Mu Wan with complicated expressions, thinking in their hearts, the seventh girl has suffered in the hands of the eighth girl since she was a child, and everything has to be preempted by the other party, and the eighth girl even tried to make the girl fall out of favor because of Lord Qin, but the girl encountered danger, but the eighth girl desperately went to save it......

Now the two can't tell whether the eight girls are good or bad.

Nian didn't know what they thought, in her eyes, Mu Wan really saved her sister, looking at her little daughter's gaze, she couldn't help but be satisfied and loving, "If your sister is half as sensible as you, I will burn high incense." ”

"Mother, don't say that, my sister knows she'll be upset."

Nian sighed, "The doctor said that your sister was frightened, she was dazed after drinking the medicine, she slept very unsteadily, and she was afraid that she would have a fever at night, so I would stay here for a while, you go back first to rest, if there is anything uncomfortable, you must let people know." ”

"Mother, don't worry, I know."

Mu Wan left Ling Xiaxuan with the girl.

Du Ruo asked in a low voice, "Why did the girl go into the water to save the seventh girl, what if there is a good one?" ”

It happened too suddenly, Mu Yan and Mu Wan had another quarrel, the girls' attention was attracted to the past, they didn't notice the change in the water surface, the crowd squeezed over, Mu Yan didn't pay attention and didn't stand firm, and fell directly into the river.

"I was standing beside her, closest to her, and if I hadn't stretched out my hand, I would have been accused of being indifferent and selfish like her."

Mu Yan didn't give her sister Snow Muscle Honeydew, and Mu Wan didn't save her sister when she saw death, which one is more serious, do you need to say?

If Mu Yan really has three longs and two shorts, everyone will forget her mistakes, and Mu Wan will undoubtedly be pushed to the forefront.

Cardamom said: "I hope this life-saving grace can be exchanged for the gratitude of the seventh girl, and let Lord Qin to the girl!" ”

Mu Wan obviously hated the word "let" very much, and glanced at Cardamom coldly.

Cardamom shrunk her neck, "What the slave means is that I hope the seventh girl will get to know each other and don't fight with the girl for everything, this time the girl saved her, she can't not say nothing." ”

Mu Wan sneered, "In my mother's words, our sisters should be as good as one person, regardless of each other, what kind of life-saving grace do you pay attention to?" Even if I wanted to show kindness, I am afraid that others will say that I am trying to repay my sisters. Besides, even if it is a life-saving grace, there are other ways to repay it, if it were you, would you be stupid enough to give up your beloved man? ”

Cardamom frowned, "Didn't that girl save her in vain!" ”

The corners of Mu Wan's mouth couldn't help but curl up slightly, "How can it be saved in vain, Seventh Sister was still speaking ill of me one moment ago, and the next moment I saved her desperately, I'm afraid she will feel ashamed of herself, right?" As long as she can relax her vigilance against me, Qin Zeng will still have a chance to grab it. ”

Ling Xiaxuan.

Mu Yan really started to heat up, and Nian stayed by the bed, wiping and dissipating heat for Mu Yan.

Pucao and Puliu looked at it, and the five flavors were mixed.

It is said that crying children have milk to eat.

The eighth girl has always been "weak", Mu Yan doesn't look down on Mu Wan's style, she has always been alive, as if she is satirizing the eight girls, but in this way, the third lady will inevitably ignore her, and her mind will be used on the weak and obedient little daughter.

As time goes by, the contradictions between the sisters become deeper and deeper, and they always fight to the death openly and secretly.

The third lady kept watch for half the night, the heat on Mu Yan's forehead faded, and the person slept soundly, she instructed Pucao Puliu, "You two, take care of it carefully, if Yan'er wakes up, decoction medicine will be used to let her take it." ”

"Yes, don't worry, ma'am."

Not long after the third lady left, Mu Yan really woke up, and Pu Cao and Pu Liu finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Fortunately, the girl is fine, the third lady stayed here for the girl for most of the night, and the girl left only after the fever subsided."

Mu Yan's mouth was dry, her nose was blocked, and her voice was muffled, "Is it, my mother has been here?" ”

Pu Liu wiped the thin sweat on Mu Yan's forehead with a cotton handkerchief, and said, "Yes, Madame is not undistressed about the girl, when we come back, Madame is in a hurry." ”

Mu Yan was stunned for a while, and then asked, "What about the eighth sister?" ”

"The eighth girl also caught a cold, drank medicine, and went back to rest."

Mu Yan was silent.

Mu Wan saved her.

If it weren't for Mu Wan, wouldn't she have died tonight?
