Chapter 204: Second brother's secret letter

"grandmother!"
Nan Baoyi trot up the steps and was stopped by Mother Ji as soon as she called.
The old man led her to the side and said warmly: "The old lady is getting angry, so it's better not to go in."
Nan Baoyi pretended to be well-behaved: "Mother, I originally took Huang Gongzi to the garden, but who knew he had gone halfway. I don't know where he went afterwards? Is it because my grandmother is angry that I have not treated the guests well?"
"Naturally not to be angry with the girl in Baoyi."
Mother Ji was kind and comforted, but she couldn't tell the specific reason.
It's hard to tell the girl who hasn't left the cabinet, what about Huang Shaodong's shirtless embarrassment, right?
Nan Baoyi asked again: "Mother, how did the little cousin's family look at each other?"
"The old lady and the Huang family are not having a good time. I am afraid that this marriage will not be possible." Madam Ji said bluntly, "After all, choosing a son-in-law for the four girls is not buying vegetables. You can't rush for a while. According to the old slave, it's back. You have to look at each other slowly."
"That's the truth. Although I am young, I know that I can't eat hot tofu in a hurry. What's more, I also hope that my cousin can stay in the house and stay with me for two more years!"
After Nan Baoyi finished speaking, he left in a very good mood.
Huang Yin is not worthy of her little cousin. In the future, she must do it herself and choose a prominent marriage for her little cousin!
The day has come to the Spring Festival.
There are lanterns and colors everywhere in Nanfu, palace lanterns, beast head lanterns, flower lanterns, bird and poultry lanterns, and revolving lanterns can be seen everywhere. The degree of variety is no less than that of a market.
Riddles are pasted on the lamp. If you guess the answer, you can uncover the paper to find the old butler for the answer.
By the midnight count, the person who guessed the most riddles will be rewarded.
This has been the custom of the Nanjia Festival for more than two centuries, and both maids and young servants can participate, regardless of their status.
So in the evening, the maids had already taken out their new dresses, dressed more beautifully than they used to be, and went into the garden splendidly.
Nan Baoyi helped lotus leaf to put on a golden step shaker, and said with a smile: "My lotus leaf is very nice to dress up! You don't have to follow me tonight, go to the garden to guess the lantern riddles."
He Ye reluctantly, "The slaves and maids followed you in previous years. How can you make an exception this year? There are so many people in the garden, what if someone who doesn't have long eyes collides with you?!"
Nan Baoyi chatted.
She glanced at the moyu bamboo knot hanging under the window.
Early yesterday morning, she received a secret letter from her second brother, asking her to watch the lantern and guess the riddle together tonight.
For some reason, she didn't want lotus leaf to follow...
It’s just that she and the Minister of Power, eat dumplings and admire the lanterns, how nice!
She coaxed: "Good lotus leaf, I have grown up, I won't be hit by anyone!"
"No! Madam said when she was alive, the servant girl should take good care of the lady. Therefore, the servant girl will follow you every step of the way!"
Lotus leaf squeezed his fist, with an expression of death.
Nan Baoyi wanted to cry.
She reluctantly agreed to let Lotus Leaf follow, and waited secretly to go to the garden, and then she was able to find an excuse to distract her.
Unexpectedly, just after leaving the dormitory, Nan Baozhu brought the little father-in-law.
"Jiaojiao, I'll come to you to watch lanterns and guess lantern riddles together." Nan Baozhu affectionately took her hand, "We sisters must play hard, we will be the first to fight for the first place! Get the reward, let us two Share it equally!"
Nan Baoyi: "..."
But she made an appointment with the Minister of Power!
Wronged!
When he was about to walk out of Songhe Courtyard, Cheng Ye Ruanhuang and Nanguang came.
Cheng Yerou is well versed in Nan Baoyi's status in the Nan family, and knows that she can deal with the old lady, so she treats her very kindly: "Tonight on Yuan's Day, the garden is very lively. I have an appointment with your father. I want to make an appointment with Jiaojiao. Enjoying the lanterns together is considered a reunion for our little family."
Nan Guang married Cheng Yerou and his temperament changed.
He and Cheng Yerou clasped their fingers together, and smiled softly: "Yes, Jiaojiao, your mother is thinking about you, afraid that you will be lonely on the Spring Festival, so we all come to accompany you during the festival, are you happy?"
Nan Baoyi: "..."
I haven't seen her father close before, but now she has something to do, but he rushed to get close.
It is said that the daughter is the lover of her father's previous life, she is different, she is probably her father's enemy, or the kind of ancestral grave.
With so many people on the side, how can she whisper to the minister...
She wants a lot of things to tell him!
She rubbed the small handkerchief and followed out of Songheyuan in a painful manner.
Coming to the garden, it is already dusk.
The sound of silk and bamboo orchestras is endless, and all kinds of colored lights are lit. The huge garden is like a sea of ​​gilt lanterns, with flowers in front of the moon, stone bridges, pavilions, boats and pavilions, everywhere is full of temples, shadows, clothes, and laughter.
Nan Baoyi followed his father forward, looking around from time to time, but never saw the figure of the minister.
Isn't he coming tonight?
Lost in her heart, the young girl grabbed her hand in Nan Baozhu and showed her the biggest revolving lantern in surprise, she hurriedly showed a sweet smile.
The young man she missed, but still stayed in Chaowenyuan.
The bedroom was lit with candles.
Xiao Yi was sitting on the couch, wearing thin bedding, and he didn't even comb his hair.
He folded his sleeves blankly.
The maid Wu knelt down on the ground, each holding a set of brocade robes.
Mu Shi was also covered with robes.
After Xiao Yi tried it, he was dissatisfied and replaced it.
Aftertaste came in from the outside with the tea, looked at the messy interior, and then at the gloomy face of his master, and immediately penetrated his thoughts.
The first time the master asked the girl about Baoyi to look at the lantern, it was because the clothes were not good enough.
She smiled and put down her tea: "The lantern party in the garden has already begun. If the master doesn't go there, he won't be able to catch up with the lantern riddles. Baoyi girl, still waiting for the master."
She picked up a dark red narrow-sleeved round-neck brocade robe, "The master always wears this black robe in the past, but I don’t want to try this dark red one at night. The sleeves and neckline are embroidered with gold thread and precious flowers, low-key but not lost. Luxurious, noble but stable, with this leather inlaid jade gold belt, it can best bring out the master's color."
Xiao Yi raised his eyebrows.
Aftertaste has served him for many years, knowing what he meant by tempting.
She stepped forward with a smile and respectfully kneeled: "Please try on the clothes!"
garden.
Nan Baoyi was sitting alone on the side of the small stone bridge, holding a rabbit lamp, feeling very depressed.
To her left, Nan Baozhu and Ning Wanzhou are guessing a riddle.
Nan Baozhu: "'An old man, if he doesn't run or walk, ask him to sleep, he will shake his head', what is this?"
Ning Wanzhou: "Tumbler."
Nan Baozhu: "Wow, the night is so amazing, I want to hug you!"
Ning Wanzhou: "I refuse."
"Hold!"
Nan Baozhu hugged him.
The thirteen-year-old boy quietly reddened his ears in the light and shadow of the lantern.
On her right, Cheng Yerou is talking to her father.
Cheng Yerou: "A Guang is great, you can guess such a difficult riddle!"
Nan Guang: "Hahaha, your husband, I have always been great, not just in terms of guessing!"
