Chapter 36: The Lantern Festival

Approaching the golden osmanthus flowering period, the fragrant aroma is also a lot lighter, but the breeze blows, and you can still faintly smell the sweetness.

Ruan Yuyi was silent, as if she was very patient to give Cheng Xingqiu a time to think, waiting for him to answer.

He sneered suddenly.

"Ling Ling, let's not talk about these for the time being." He stepped forward and brought the two of them closer.

She felt uncomfortable and wanted to back away, but was pulled back.

After all, she was no match for him, he grabbed her right wrist with one hand, and pinched the back of her neck with the other, "Since the marriage, I have always been afraid of scaring you, so I have never done anything to you." Now I regret it, I shouldn't have indulged you a long time ago. ”

Ruan Yuyi felt a little weak, her body trembled slightly, her breathing was disordered, and her thoughts were blank.

Seeing that Cheng Xingqiu was about to lean down, a thought suddenly flashed in her heart, if the son of the world was here, would she not be able to be bullied by this.

Ruan Yuyi suddenly felt a little aggrieved.

She didn't know why, she inexplicably felt that Jiang Huaiyang would protect her. But at the moment, there is no one around, and these are just fantasies.

Her heart was crossed, and she bent her knees and attacked him three inches below his umbilicus. When she saw Cheng Xingqiu squatting down in pain, she realized that what her mother taught was the method of self-preservation.

The means of a body is also to teach her how to forge this beautiful skin into a soft sword, even if she is alone, she has something to rely on, so as not to make herself suffer a loss.

She hurriedly took a few steps back and distanced herself from Cheng Xingqiu, "Eldest son, I'm not feeling well, so I'll leave first." Now that a few words have prevaricated him, there is no need to worry about him being suspicious anymore, so there is no need to stay longer.

After saying that, Ruan Yuyi lifted her skirt and walked away quickly, walking farther and farther, leaving Cheng Xingqiu alone.

He stared at her panicked back, and as soon as he had recovered a little strength, he was about to get up and chase after her.

Not far away, a servant called him, "Eldest Prince, Her Royal Highness the Eldest Princess is looking for you." ”

This is Zhaorong's man.

When Cheng Xingqiu heard this, he retracted his attention and hummed softly, "Go back, don't let the princess wait." Fortunately, she didn't see the woman next to her here, otherwise she would have stabbed Zhaorong there, and she was afraid that it would be difficult to coax.

However, it was said that after Ruan Yuyi returned to the wing, she still had palpitations, her chest continued to rise and fall violently, and the roots of her ears were slightly hot.

She buried her head in the crook of her arm, and she couldn't bear the sourness in her eyes.

She wanted to go home.

I don't know how my mother is over there, but I asked my side clan relatives to bully her.

Mu Xiang knew that she didn't have a good conversation with Cheng Xingqiu, and she regretted it a little in her heart, so she should go with Miss. She gently stroked the top of Ruan Yuyi's hair.

She hummed the water town ballad softly, Wu Nong spoke softly, soft and long, as if bringing Ruan Yuyi back to her long-lost hometown.

Mrs. Ruan sang this tune when she was young to lull her to sleep, and at that time, Mu Xiang served on the side, and she would sing a short part of it.

Ruan Yuyi crouched on a few cases, her head against her forearm, and listened quietly, the tip of her nose was slightly sour.

Suddenly, she raised her head and tilted her head to look at Mu Xiang, "Stupid Mu Xiang, you're out of tune." ”

"Okay, miss," the song stopped suddenly, and Mu Xiang reached out to tickle her, "The slave maid remembers this, and she sings all of them, and listens to you, you are good, and you laugh at me." ”

Ruan Yuyi's heart relaxed, covered her mouth and chuckled, and picked up the broken song and sang it.

Her voice is extremely soft, so it seems to fit the ballad very well.

In the side room, there was a faint long and pleasant tune, and the maids passing by couldn't help but stop and listen carefully.

After dinner, Cheng Zhu called Ruan Yuyi over and said, "There are already some hawkers gathered at the foot of the mountain, and the eldest princess will go to hang out if she wants to do it now." It's also hard to come out, if you feel that a person is boring, just follow along. ”

She didn't plan to go out herself, after all, she was really afraid that Brother Rui would get lost, so she simply stayed with him, and if the temple allowed it, it would be good to go and see the Fa.

was disturbed by Cheng Xingqiu this morning, and Ruan Yuyi was also lacking in interest, "Auntie, I won't go, so as not to disturb the relationship between the eldest prince and His Royal Highness." ”

What a sensible one.

Cheng Zhu was about to nod, but he heard Zhaorong say, "My sister didn't want to go because she couldn't see the palace and Xingqiu together." ”

She couldn't understand how anyone could volunteer to stay alone in the wing.

The mountain has a wide field of vision, if she stands on a high place, and when she looks down, it is full of lights, and it is inevitable that she will think of the people under the mountain, so that her heart will become more and more lonely. What's more, she has been looking forward to this lantern festival for a long time, how could she not want to go for a stroll.

So Zhaorong also took it for granted that everyone would look forward to her like her.

Ruan Yuyi didn't know what she was thinking, but she just narrowed her eyes and said, "The princess is worried." ”

The eldest princess has always been willing to pretend to be generous in front of Cheng Zhu's family, and then said, "If my sister wants to go shopping alone, let's go down the mountain and then separate." ”

Cheng Xingqiu stared at her and echoed.

At this point, she seemed deliberate to shirk again, so she had to nod her head in response.

On the long steps, sure enough, there were already scattered small vendors who had set up stalls, and when they saw someone passing by, they raised their voices to sell.

It was evening, it got dark very quickly, and it was not long before the lanterns in the hands of these vendors should be lit, and the lights were connected together, which was a grand occasion worth looking forward to more than the lanterns themselves.

The eldest princess had just walked a short distance before she couldn't take a step.

In front of him is a stall selling jade carvings, the big one is about a handful, and the smaller one is only the size of a woman's palm, which is even more delicate and cute.

When the vendors saw that the stalls had come to the customers, one of the women looked at the extraordinary clothes, clasped her hands nervously, and said with a flattering smile:

"The girl has a crush on whichever she likes, just pick it. We are all the best jade, carved by special people. I can't buy it on weekdays, so I save to sell it today. ”

Ruan Yuyi walked behind them slightly, this face is really too eye-catching, even if someone has walked a few steps, they still have to look back.

Because of the openness of the Dawu national style, women don't want to wear a power fence, this thing presses the bun not to mention, and it also blocks the vision, so she didn't think to wear it.

At this time, she really couldn't stand the frequent glances of passers-by, so she had to ask Mu Xiang to buy a white silk hibiscus fan nearby, half-covering her face, revealing only a pair of clear Ling Ling eyes.

Zhaorong was still watching from the side of the stall, she picked up a bird-like jade carving, played with it in her hand, and before she could say anything, the vendor said, "Girl has a good eye, this is just carved according to the appearance of a magpie, which means that it is excellent." ”

Cheng Xingqiu was happy when he saw Zhaorong, so he bought it, the jade is indeed a good jade, and this one alone also cost a lot of silver.

"My sister wants to come and have a look." Zhaorong looked back and raised his chin slightly, showing some ostentation.

Cheng Xingqiu also said softly, "Ling Ling, you can also come and pick one." "It's like you've completely forgotten what happened during the day.

When the merchant saw that she was also along, he thought that she was another distinguished guest, and greeted her warmly.

She didn't have much interest, so she shook her head slightly, causing the beads on her head to shake, and the moist beads reflected her eyes, and she couldn't tell which side was more eye-catching.

Not to mention that she asked for Cheng Xingqiu's things, the eldest princess would not like it, she didn't want to ask him to pay for herself anymore, and in her opinion, this is something that only men and women who have close relationships do.
