This was Lin Piao's evaluation of Erzhu at the beginning, and Lin Piao was deflated and had nothing to refute.

Shen Hong was willing to accompany him to these places to see, Lin Piao's mood was much better, looking at the lanterns and scenery on the road along the way, and chattering more, Shen Hong always followed him half a step behind, not only to talk with him, but also to beware of someone rushing into Lin Piao behind him.

The two of them walked to a place to guess the lantern riddle, and the rewards were different, such as guessing that one had a penny, and the two could be worn with a colored rope, and then superimposed in turn, if they could guess twenty, they could get a hanging of money, which can be described as a generous shot.

But guessing the lantern riddle is random, and the store picks one out at random, and cannot be selected by the person, so as to reduce the success rate.

Lin Piao watched by for a while, and saw that those riddles were all twisted and turned, and he probably had an outline, but the answer could not come out.

For example, in one case, as April drew to the end of May, the window paper was scratched and repasted, and the husband had been in Beijing for three years, and he had not written a word in the letter.

Every sentence is a kind of medicinal material, Lin Piao thought for a long time: "The first one should be Banxia." ”

"Sister-in-law wants to know what's behind?"

"What is it?"

"Sister-in-law guess." Shen Hong smiled lightly, and suddenly teased him.

Lin Piaocai didn't take the bait: "Don't say it." ”

Shen Hong smiled: "It's windbreak, angelica, angelica." ”

Lin Piao suddenly realized that he was not familiar with medicinal materials, but when Shen Hong said this, he understood.

The shopkeeper on the side shouted: "Guess two lantern riddles and send colorful ropes, and the medicine fork god will guard it, and all diseases will not be born." ”

Lin Piao looked at the pile of colorful braided ropes hanging behind him, and asked the shopkeeper, "Is this the birthday of the Medicine King Bodhisattva?" ”

Lin Piao didn't know how to express it, and wanted to ask if it was the Medicine King Bodhisattva limited peripherals, but he couldn't think of a better alternative word.

The owner of the small shop nodded again and again: "Yes, yes." ”

Lin Piao asked What, he is yes, yes, all diseases are yes, yes, the Bodhisattva blesses yes, and yes, yes, yes,

"Oh no! That one has to go and send the son Guanyin! Or worship the queen Tu Niangniang. ”

Lin Piao couldn't help but laugh when he saw that he finally had a reaction.

Shen Hong watched from the sidelines, so he guessed two lantern riddles and gave him a colored braided rope.

Lin Piao took it, held it in his hand, and the two continued to stroll, and when they came to the end, they felt that the road they had walked out today was far enough.

"Let's go back, or we'll go too far."

Shen Hong nodded, and the two began to turn back.

The wind was getting colder and colder at night, so Lin Piao put on his hood, and the two left the main road and walked into the alley.

Even in the small alleys of Shangjing, lanterns are lit every once in a while, but the lanterns are not hung densely, the light is not strong, there is no difference between there and not, and they are basically walking in the dark, only the goldfish lamp in Shen Hong's hand swims in the dark night, illuminating the road under his feet.

In the darkness, Lin Piao felt Shen Hong get closer, and then held his hand up, through the cloak and through the clothes, and gently supported his forearm.

"Sister-in-law, watch your step."

"Hmm." Lin Piao walked seriously and didn't look at him.

When he returned to the courtyard, Shen Hong let go of him, put the goldfish lamp on the table, and then turned around and said, "Sister-in-law, put on the colored rope, and my sister-in-law will be safe and smooth in the future." ”

As he said auspicious words, Lin Piao nodded, walked into the table, and reached out of the cloak, revealing his hands.

He had been holding the rope in his hand, and at this time he put the rope on his wrist, flipped his wrist, pressed the knot with his fingers on the inside of his wrist, and struggled to tuck the bulging knot into the buckle.

However, the rope buckle was very small, and the rope was not elastic, so Lin Piao played around for a while, and he was already secretly gritting his teeth.

Shen Hong kept watching, looking at the colored rope on his wrist.

Shen Hong half-lowered his eyes: "Sister-in-law, do you want me to help?" ”

"No, you don't."

Shen Hong looked at Lin Piao's hard mouth, but he was already a little anxious, looked at it quietly for a while, reached out and held the button knot for him, and pinched the rope mouth with the other hand.

Lin Piao lowered his eyes in frustration, feeling his body temperature fall on his skin, and the edge of his palm sometimes touched his wrist.

Help me......

Don't be so ambiguous.

God, do you really want my life......

Compared with the avoidable confession, this unavoidable physical contact is what makes Lin Piao retreat.

It may be that he is now mentally more sensitive to Shen Hong, and his attitude towards this kind of contact has also changed a little.

After buckling the knot, Lin Piao quickly withdrew his hand: "It's too late, I'm sleeping, you should rest early." ”

"Okay."

Lin Piao returned to the house and fell asleep, but he did not fall asleep.

After lying down for a while, I tried to untie the rope, but the rope was too small and fastened so tightly that I couldn't take it off with one hand.

Never mind.

Wear it.

Peace and security is true, what is ambiguous and not ambiguous.

Lin Piao continued to put things behind, and the next day Shen Hong went out to meet friends in the morning, ate out at noon, and came back an hour or so after lunch.

When he returned, Lin Piao was burning incense at home, and he asked Shanzi to buy a set of incense sticks, intending to burn a little pure incense and make it elegant to ease the fluctuations in his heart.

Before the incense seal was ready, Shen Hong suddenly came back, Lin Piao's hand shook, and his temper became even more irritable: "My incense seal!" ”

This is the culprit of everything!

When Shen Hong walked in the door, he saw Lin Piao complaining, staring at himself fiercely, as if complaining, and stepped forward, and saw that his incense seal was crooked, and the incense powder broke and scattered into several sections.

"Sister-in-law's heart is not quiet."

"I'm just starting to get it, it's not going to be! You came in out of nowhere and scared me. ”

"I'll do it." Shen Hong stretched out his hand and shook his sleeves, folded them up, reached out and took those props, carefully pinched them between his fingers, swept away Lin Piao's broken incense seal, and re-pressed the powder.

He sat aside, Lin Piao watched his movements, meticulous and smooth, looking very noble, those simple spoons and shovels seemed to have become extraordinary in his hands.

"When did you learn this?"

"When I was at Deer Cave Academy, this was the first thing the dean asked me to learn."

Brewing tea, burning incense, is the most delicate and grinding things, different tea has different brewing methods, different tea sets also have different techniques, incense is also divided into several kinds, he has learned very well.

At that time, the dean asked him if he would find it boring to do only these things.

He said no, because a lot of things can be negotiated in one cup of tea.

At that time, the dean began to read books to him.

Lin Piao looked at the incense seal he typed, there was no crack, it looked very complete and beautiful, and he couldn't help but wow.

"Your hand is so steady, I probably don't have enough strength, shake the incense seal and it will crack, and shake it again and it will be scattered."

"Just take your time."

"I don't have the patience for this, it's too troublesome, so I play with it occasionally."

"Then I'll light incense for my sister-in-law in the future."

Lin Piao didn't respond.

Shen Hong lit the incense seal, closed the lid, and watched as wisps of green smoke rose from the incense burner.

Lin Piao smelled it and felt that the aroma was very light, but there was a feeling that it was very cool to breathe in, refreshing and refreshing, making people's minds open, no wonder it was called pure fragrance.

Lin Piao sniffed twice, and looked at Shen Hong through the slightest white smoke: "By the way, what are you doing when you come back at this point, aren't you meeting people outside?" ”

"Sister-in-law forgot? Said to go to Biyun Tower. ”

"Do you have to go at night?"

Shen Hong raised his eyebrows slightly, was silent for a moment, and said, "It's a little chaotic at night." ”

Lin Piao opened his mouth, but he didn't expect such a difference.

"So did you go more during the day or more at night?"

"After dark, didn't I listen to my sister-in-law and go home most of the time?"

Oh...... It turned out that the evening was not considered night, but it made Shen Hong miss a lot of nightlife.

Lin Piaofei didn't hear: "I'll go change into men's clothes." ”

Lin Piao turned around and entered the house, deliberately picked out the best men's clothes for himself, then tied his hair, applied smearing and smearing on his face, and looked in the mirror.

Lin Piao walked out of the door: "Okay, let's go." ”

The two went out together, Shen Hong now has a carriage to pick him up, basically waiting for him all day, the two got into the carriage and went all the way to Biyun Tower.

The whole street on this side of Biyun Lou is regarded as a custom street, the difference is only in the semi-vulgar or the vulgar, Biyun Lou visual inspection belongs to the kind that is not vulgar during the day and vulgar at night.

They came during the day, and along the way they saw many lanterns hanging all over the streets, colorful and lined with these gorgeous buildings, and it was indeed a bit of a heavenly attic, but the lanterns were not lit during the day, and the brilliant lights would look better at night.

Lin Piao walked in and saw that it was a little deserted inside, but there were still many people drinking and watching the show inside.

The second floor is a private room, and the windows of several private rooms are open, and some sons and brothers sit by the window to watch the performance, and some are separated by a layer of tulle, and the people inside can see the outside, but the people outside can't really see the inside.

The ambiance was very level.

The grade of the customers is very high, either the literati and ink writers, or the sons and grandsons, there is a circular platform in the middle of the first floor, very large, the edge of the lotus petal shape, like a huge lotus platform, there is a Hu people dancing slowly on it, and there are a few brothers and girls holding various musical instruments, playing and singing in the back.

Maybe it's because of the daytime, the scene is not very passionate, and the dance of the Hu Ren Maiji is also more classical, not the imaginary belly dance or Hu Xuan dance or the like.

As soon as Shen Hong walked in, many literati who were watching the dance in the booth called him, stood up and greeted him, Shen Hong asked Lin Piao to wait a while, and he went over to greet those people for a while, and when those people asked about Lin Piao, he said that he was a cousin of a relative's family.

Lin Piao listened secretly beside him, and wrote down in his heart that he would have to call him cousin later.

Damn it......

I feel like I'm being taken advantage of.

After Shen Hong finished greetings, someone from Biyun Tower came to lead them upstairs.

Although Lin Piao didn't know what was happening, he could only sit down and see that those literati could only sit below, but he and Shen Hong could go upstairs, and the arrogance at the moment was unobstructed.

Shen Hong doesn't seem to be a little well mixed, it seems to be very well mixed.
