Chapter 29
Chapter 28: The villain’s ruthless son (6)
“Look at how people behave like you? Who is like you? You bought me a silver hairpin and you dig and search, and finally sent me a peach wood hairpin carved by yourself…”
When the two were looking at each other, a complaining voice suddenly rang beside them.
They followed the sound together, and they saw a man wearing linen clothes, dark complexion, carrying a pole, and a basket filled with oil, salt, cloth and other odds and ends. He was standing near him with a headscarf. The woman in Tsing Yi stretched out her hand to twist the soft flesh on her waist, but even so, the man just smiled flatteringly at the people next to her, and did not refute.
It may be that Yan Xingzhi and Tangning’s looks are too high. Good-looking people will attract everyone’s attention no matter where they go. So when they enter the county town, they almost attract the attention of hawkers on a whole street, including the pair sold out. The mountain products brought, the couple who just bought the things they need at home.
Because she was not very close, the woman in Tsing Yi didn’t hear what they were talking about at all. Her attention was all attracted by the jade hairpin on Tangning’s head that she had never seen before, and she was envious. I complained about this.
When she heard her say this, Tangning was stunned for a moment, and then hurriedly waved her hand, “No, you are misunderstood, I and Master Yan are not…”
“Yo ha ha ha, the little girl’s face is thin-skinned, the eldest sister, I know, the baby will be fine if she is married.”
Seeing Tangning blushing, the woman immediately joked as if she was coming by.
“really not…”
Tangning here still wants to explain, Yan Xingzhi has already taken a step ahead of her, and smiled and asked the lady in Tsing Yi, “Dare to ask this lady, why it’s going to be late, this huge county is still so lively. ?”
Knowing that Tangning’s treatment of this kind of woman meant that her lips were broken, I am afraid that Yan Xingzhi, who could not break with her, directly intervened and diverted the topic.
“Don’t you know?” The woman opened her mouth in a little surprise, and looked at them up and down again. “My son, you two are outsiders, aren’t you? Tonight is our Lanzhou City’s big day, Lantern Festival. I still don’t look at it yet. Out, the street is lively at night, there are people everywhere, and lanterns of various shapes are hung on both sides of the road. I heard that there are fireworks to watch at night. After a while, my husband and wife send things home. I will also bring my children over to have a look! This is only once a year!”
After listening to the woman’s words, Tangning also showed a look of yearning, unexpectedly…
No, she thought about it a long time ago.
Yan Xingzhi wanted to attack her, but bleeding and sweating was not enough, so he deliberately controlled the speed of the two of them. Finally, he settled in such a county where he had known that there would be a Lantern Festival. Wasn’t it just to be with her? Some time to get along, some more… you can count her chances.
She understands, because these are all leftovers from her previous play.
Now the main thing to look at is who does the trick.
As Tangning expected, it turned out that it was one night, and Yan Xingzhi took the initiative to find her out to see the annual Lantern Festival that the peasant woman said.
The reason is that the county where they are located is not far from the Kongshan faction. They also need to rest in this county anyway. Why not take the opportunity to see how grand this Lantern Festival is, and soothe the tension on the road.
Tangning nodded in response.
After she really went out behind Yan Xingzhi, she discovered that the woman in Tsing Yi did not exaggerate. The so-called Lanzhou City Lantern Festival is really grand. The vendors along the street sell everything, hot glutinous rice balls. , Chaos, children’s favorite candied haws, as well as masks, calligraphy and painting, cloth, etc., but the most sold on the roadside is the lantern.
Rabbit-shaped, lotus-shaped, all kinds, colorful, everything.
Everywhere you can see children and adults carrying lanterns. They are applauding the jugglers who are holding bowls and walking on stilts. In such a lively atmosphere, Tangning also squeezed in for two rounds of fun, but because she was from The luggage brought by Yaoshengu had disappeared with the carriage, and she didn’t have much money on her body. At the end of the reward, Yan Xingzhi, who had been following behind her, drew out the money.
“Zeng cake, fragrant and sweet Zeng cake! Hey, girl, do you want one?”
Just after walking past the busker’s stall, Tangning immediately felt a sweet scent pouring into her nose in the next second.
Looking up, Tangning found that a stall not far from her was selling a food made of red, white and white glutinous rice. The steaming glutinous rice was covered with red dates, candied dates and red beans. Tangning, who has loved to eat all kinds of glutinous rice food since childhood, saw the moment of eating, and saw that Yan Xingzhi next to him didn’t care, and walked forward without any pause.
She hurriedly reached out and pulled his sleeves, “Yan… Young Master Yan…”
I was a little embarrassed because I wanted to eat it. There was already a touch of red Tangning on his face. The eyes that looked at Yan Xingzhi, but the surrounding lights seemed to be able to emit light.
Yan Xingzhi showed an unidentified appearance, just because he was thinking about tonight’s actions in his mind, and he walked for a while, he really didn’t understand what Tangning meant.
After Tangning looked at him, she looked at the Zeng cake stall on the side.
Yan Xingzhi, who understood what she meant, immediately curled his mouth a little funny, and when he saw the little girl being scalded straight, he was still biting into the pastry he just bought in the paper bag, and then he was very satisfied. When the expression came, the arc of the man’s mouth became more obvious.
But then he saw Tangning, who was holding the paper bag, looked forward and his eyes lit up suddenly, and then as if he hadn’t noticed what he had done, he took his hand and moved forward excitedly. Run away.
During the run, Yan Xingzhi kept staring at the hand held by the two.
Until it stopped, the soft and smooth touch suddenly disappeared.
He glanced at his hand, clenched his eyes inexplicably, and just formed a fist, the next moment he felt Tangning next to him stretch out his hand and pat his arm, “Look, there are so many lanterns!”
Yan Xingzhi followed the sound and saw that a wooden frame almost the size of a house was erected above their heads. The wooden frame was covered with lanterns of various shapes, and the top was a dragon and phoenix. The lanterns are exquisite and carefully crafted, and the dragon and the wind look like alive from a distance.
When he saw this place, he heard the introduction from the shopkeeper on the side that it was the Lanzhou City Lantern Festival tonight. Their lantern shop, under the leadership of Shao Dong’s house, also made a nod to it. There is a mast here. Who is there? Without putting down the mast, you can remove the hydrangea from the mast, and you can choose a lantern on the lantern stand, including the dragon and phoenix at the top.
Upon hearing such words, almost all the onlookers present became a sensation.
After all, outsiders don’t know that dragon and phoenix are presenting auspicious lanterns. Don’t these Lanzhou people still know?
That is the treasure of the town shop in their shop. Not only that, but a salt merchant from Yangzhou once offered a high price of one thousand taels, which was a full one thousand taels!
But when they looked at the mast, which was almost as high as the city wall and the thickness of an arm, they knew that the lantern was not easy to handle.
Listening to the people around him discussing the dragon and phoenix Chengxiang lantern, Tangning, who took a bite of the cake, looked up at the lantern stand in front of him, “How ugly is that dragon and phoenix Chengxiang lantern? If it were me, I would choose the third row. That jade rabbit hugs the moon, really beautiful!”
“Does the jade rabbit hug the moon?”
Yan Xingzhi murmured.
“what?”
Tang Ning, who only heard him making a sound, but did not hear what he said, turned around and asked with some doubts.
But only to see the corners of Yan Xingzhi’s slightly raised mouth, Tangning watched him gently push away the crowd of onlookers in front of him, and walked to the mast that was already surrounded by the crowd, when everyone did not react. , With only a light touch of the toe on the mast, the whole person took off the hydrangea on the top of the mast with great ease and handed it to the shopkeeper.
“Young Master Yan…”
Tangning watched in astonishment what happened in less than two seconds before and after.
And the shopkeeper, who was proud and confident, saw his words but said it, some people took off the hydrangea. It was obvious that they had called people to experiment countless times before, and no one could remove the hydrangea on the mast. Who could have thought it turns out…
The shopkeeper’s face gradually paled.
But after a moment of silence, the people around who watched the excitement suddenly gave out a burst of applause, and kept asking the shopkeeper to fulfil his promise and let the son go to the lamp stand to choose a lamp.
When the hearts of the people were down, the shopkeeper couldn’t say anything to refuse. After murmured bitterly in his heart, he asked people to take down the dragon and phoenix lantern and present it to Yan Xingzhi in front of him.
But he waved his hand directly, and after saying no, he leaned forward, like a goose feather without any weight, falling on the light stand, and then personally took down the third row of jade rabbit hugging the moon.
“Hey, why are you…”
“That is, why don’t you choose Longfengchengxiang, one thousand taels of silver!”
…
When the onlookers saw that Yan Xingzhi had chosen a worthless Yutu Hug Yue, they became noisy again, but the shopkeeper of the lantern shop suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, wiped the cold sweat from the forehead with his sleeve, and said that once he chose If you can’t change it anymore, congratulate Yan Xing for coming.
Yan Xingzhi didn’t care either, just holding the jade rabbit hugging the moon with a smile on his face. The whole person was like a fairy in white with his own light. He gently and skillfully fell in front of Tangning and handed the light to her. “Tang Girl, your jade rabbit hugs the moon.”
Seeing the lantern in front of him, and then at the flawless and perfect smile on Yan Xingzhi’s face, Tangning’s face was uncontrollably stained with patches of red.
“I…”
Before she had time to say anything to refuse, the people around them started to coax.
“Little girl, take it, your father-in-law knows you like to take it for you specially, so he won’t take it quickly.”
A kind mother-in-law beside her said with a smile.
The look in Tangning and Yan Xingzhi’s eyes lovingly looked like a junior looking at home.
“I’m not like him…”
“We are not husband and wife, but friends.”
Tang Ning waved her hand in a hurry, and before she could explain her words, Yan Xingzhi had already accepted her words and explained.
“Well, no, no, mother-in-law understands, she understands!”
Seeing this mother-in-law showed a look like you don’t need to say more, I understand everything, Tangning knew that no matter how she explained, the other party should not listen to it. She stretched out her hand and grabbed Yan Xingzhi’s sleeves and fled quickly. NS. .
It wasn’t until he fled to a place where there were not so many people, and finally stopped and heaved a sigh of relief.
As soon as he stopped, Yan Xingzhi smiled and handed the lantern in his hand to Tangning.
Seeing the lantern, she immediately recalled the scene of Tangning, who was so embarrassed that she couldn’t find a place to hide, and waved her hand quickly. Beautiful, I don’t really want it, I can’t want this light!”
“Do not want?”
Yan Xingzhi frowned slightly.
Tangning nodded earnestly, and then she was shocked to find that the other party saw that she didn’t want her, and he was about to throw the lantern in his hand into the ditch beside her.
Tang Ning was so scared that she stopped quickly, “I didn’t have to lose it if I got it so hard…”
As she spoke, she took a breath, “It’s a pity that such a beautiful lantern has been lost so much, let’s…give it to me, I want it.”
After speaking, she reached out and pinched the bamboo handle of the lantern, and Yan Xingzhi smiled and let it go.
With such loose movements one after another, a strange atmosphere suddenly rose up around the two of them.
Yan Xingzhi didn’t speak, and Tangning still looked at the jade rabbit hugging the moon in his hand, without raising his head.
In the end, she really felt that the atmosphere between the two was too strange, so she picked up the Rakshasa ghost mask from a mask stall on the side, and began to look at it carefully.
As soon as the owner of the mask stall saw the business, he immediately began to introduce it with enthusiasm. He also said that there has always been a rumor in Lanzhou City that it was on the Lantern Festival that the girl’s family only had to bring a mask and walk down the street. , The first man she met to uncover her mask was her destined true emperor. This method was tried by the girls in Lanzhou City, but it worked.
Hearing what the boss said, Tangning amusedly wanted to put down the mask in her hand, but she did not expect that she had already taken the mask from her hand with her other hand before putting the mask back on the stall. The owner, Yan Xingzhi, smiled and looked at the boss behind the stall and asked about the price.
“What do you buy this for?”
Tangning stretched out his hand and grabbed his sleeve to stop his payment.
Hearing this, Yan Xingzhi pointed to the street, “I felt strange just now. The boss said that I didn’t understand why we walked all the way, and some people thought that we were two husbands and wives. It turned out that it was because of this rumor that this city of Lanzhou Unmarried girls will wear all kinds of masks when they go out tonight. If you walk with me without a mask, everyone will naturally think that you are my wife. If you are not afraid of being misunderstood, you don’t need to buy this mask. OK.”
Hearing this, Tang Ning, who had nothing to refute, slowly let go of the hand holding Yan Xingzhi’s sleeves, took the blue-faced and fangs Raksha ghost mask from his hand, and whispered his thanks to him.
But she didn’t expect that as soon as she put on the mask, the pedestrians on the street immediately became agitated.
After listening to their conversation, Tangning realized that there were fireworks on the riverside for a while. In such an ancient society with extremely low productivity, many people would never see a fireworks in their entire lives except for the Lantern Festival in Lanzhou City. , Because the cost of fireworks is extremely high, even the Lantern Festival has to rely on luck to see a firework.
How can you tell them not to be excited?
Tangning, who understood the reason, didn’t even have time to say a word to Yan Xingzhi beside her. With the noise of a tumult, she was completely separated from each other by the crowd.
“Young Master Yan!”
Amidst the crowds, she hurriedly turned her head and called him.
“Girl Tang!”
When I saw that Tangning was inadvertently squeezed away under his eyelids, Yan Xingzhi’s face also had a burnt color, but it was crowded with so many unarmed ordinary people who could not even martial arts. He really can’t even use martial arts, because it’s easy to accidentally hurt people.
In desperation, he could only go to the house on one side, until he saw a white figure, he immediately fell down and pressed the other’s shoulder.
Just before he could ask, a tall man rushed out of the side and brushed his hand away, “What are you doing!”
“Da Niu, I don’t know him!”
At the same time, the white-clothed woman wearing the mask hurriedly spoke out.
The completely unfamiliar voice made Yan Xingzhi know that he was the wrong person in all likelihood.
After that, I found several women in white clothes wearing masks, but basically they didn’t find the right ones. Yan Xingzhi was a little anxious.
It wasn’t until he finally saw a woman standing there by the river with a particularly slender waist. He then stepped up to the ground uncertainly, put his hand on her shoulder, and the other party turned his head subconsciously, eager to confirm whether he had found the wrong person. Yan Xingzhi stretched out his hand and unlocked the ghost masks on both of them.
The moment Tangning’s face appeared in front of him, there was a loud bang, and a firework suddenly exploded above the two of them.
“It’s fireworks!”
Tang Ning, who originally wanted to say hello to Yan Xingzhi, hurriedly pulled him to his side, pointed at the fireworks that kept blooming across the river, and said excitedly.
‘so beautiful!”
Tangning’s pupils were too dark and too bright, reflecting the blossoming fireworks as if blooming in her eyes.
Yan Xingzhi, who had never seen such a beautiful scenery before, unconsciously felt choked in his heart, quickly moved his eyes away from her face, but tightly squeezed the Raksha ghost mask he just uncovered in his hand. The words of the mask stall owner were abrupt. Appeared in his mind.
After a long time, he sneered in his heart, not knowing who he was laughing at, and the feeling of palpitations just disappeared quickly.
Yan Xingzhi’s current favorability rating: -72.
It’s not easy!
Looking at the fireworks closely, Tang Ning, who didn’t look away at all, raised the corners of her mouth slightly.
The display of the fireworks soon ended, and the two people’s lantern trip at night should also be over.
Carrying the jade rabbit hugged the moon lantern even though it was just as crowded, Tangning followed behind Yan Xingzhi, and under the moonlight, she started to rush towards the inn.
But with Yan Xingzhi, how could she have a complete and beautiful lantern trip, not to mention that this place is already very close to the Kongshan faction.
Therefore, Tang Ning, who was blocked by a group of black men in an alley once again, had no accident in her heart.
She watched Yan Xingzhi, who had dealt with the various assassins due to the poisoning, yelled at her carefully, and the whole person was blocked in front of her in the next second. At the same time, the visitor slashed at him without hesitation. On his chest, even though Yan Xingzhi had pulled out the soft sword around his waist to resist, he still asked the other’s blade to make a deep wound on his chest.
As a result, he pulled Tangning and fell to the ground. Tangning, whose cheek hit his wound, looked at the red gourd-shaped thumb-sized birthmark on his chest, and his eyes widened in disbelief. .
“You are…”
She guessed it right!
But then a cold light flashed, and the man in black’s long sword was about to fall again.
Yan Xingzhi was about to push her away from her body, but Tangning, who had only recovered from the shock, stretched out her hand and hugged her tightly, “Don’t…”
Looking at Tang Ning who was holding him tightly in disbelief, Yan Xing even forgot to hold her to avoid the falling blade for a while.
Fortunately, at this time, a familiar sharp shout rang behind them, “Stop!”
At the same time, a long sword was quickly thrown over, directly cutting off the long sword above their heads.
Then there were bursts of fighting sounds constantly ringing in Tang Ning’s ears, but Tang Ning just hugged Yan Xingzhi under her body, her body trembling slightly.
It wasn’t until the sound of the fighting subsided that she heard the familiar voice that could no longer be heard from behind her again.
“Ningning.”
Hearing such a voice, Tangning opened her eyes as if she was waking up in a dream, raised her head, and stared at Yan Xingzhi’s dark and deep eyes. When she turned around, she was worried and anxious with Fang Yunyang, and there was even a hint of uncertainty. His eyes met each other.
“Yun Yang… Brother…”
She called out in surprise and surprise.
Seeing the smile on Tangning’s face, Fang Yunyang finally raised the corners of his mouth, and at the same time slowly raised his arms, “Ningning come here.”
Hearing this, he glanced at Yan Xingzhi’s Tangning again, bit his lower lip slightly, got up and ran towards Fang Yunyang not far away.
The moment he was hugged, the jade rabbit hug moon lantern that had been carried in his hand fell to the ground and broke.
Fang Yunyang’s tense emotions, who had hugged Tangning, also loosened. He didn’t know what was wrong with him. After seeing Ning Ning hug brother Yan, his heart was filled with an indescribable panic. Feeling, he knew that they didn’t mean it, just like him and Qingqing, but he just felt uncomfortable…
On this end, Yan Xingzhi’s eyes subconsciously fell on the lantern for a while, and finally he lowered his eyes slightly, condensing the ridicule and understanding.
And Tang Ning, who hugged Fang Yunyang tightly, heard that Yan Xingzhi’s favorability level had risen from -72 to -50 when she heard that 54088 reported to her. After she was hugged by Fang Yunyang and threw the lantern, it dropped to -65. Now the addition, subtraction and subtraction are constantly changing, and it is impossible to measure his accurate favorability.
Tangning raised the corner of her mouth high.
The ups and downs of favorability are now completely unimportant.
Because just now, she has completely confirmed that after watching the plot, she has been a guess in her heart.
When he was a child, the person who rescued Tangning from the hands of Dongchang minions was never Fang Yunyang, but Yan Xingzhi, who was also called Ye Yu at the time.
Therefore, after meeting Yan Xingzhi in the plot, the original owner will always feel that he looks so good-natured, and will be so easily in love with him by his routines.
Therefore, everyone was wrong from the beginning, Fang Yunyang was wrong, Yan Xingzhi was wrong, and the original owner was also wrong.
From the very beginning, the person she wanted to make an appointment with shouldn’t be Fang Yunyang!
Since she was young, she has been thinking about saving her little brother, and it is not Fang Yunyang at all.
However, in the plot, she didn’t know until she died, she admitted the wrong person.
Ah.
The author has something to say: It’s miserable, who can beat the original Tangning!
Yuan Tangning: Author, I want to write a tragic word on your leg! 【Blood and Tears
This is the setting from the beginning, hahaha! Finally it was written! Has a baby noticed it before?
