I farmed and built a villa in ancient times

Chapter 133
"Oh, so many people are here." Shen Yunzhi muttered with a red face. Li Jiao reluctantly shut up and secretly glanced at Tang Qingyu.

When Tang Qingyu received the look from her, she lowered her eyes shyly, walked forward with the river lantern, and said calmly: "Just now, Sister Jiao and I saw that these river lanterns were exquisitely made, so we bought a few casually, thinking that we would do it like everyone else. Light a lamp by the water to pray for blessings. Qingyu wonders if any of his brothers would be willing to accompany him?"

Shen Yunzhi looked at the little girl's shy and nervous expression, and saw through it without criticizing her, "Of course I have to go. After all, I will go wherever the lady goes."

Li Jiao rolled her eyes at him again, "Who asked you?"

"..." Shen Yunzhi was frustrated again.

Yang Xi raised his head and glanced at the bright moonlight, and saw Tang Qingyu's eyes filled with anticipation. He couldn't bear to spoil this younger sister's interest, so he pursed his lips and smiled: "It's rare to get together with you today, Qingyu, I'll go with you too."

"That's great!" Tang Qingyu smiled excitedly. Feng Chuli looked at Tang Qingyu who couldn't hide his emotions, pursed his lips for a moment, and said regretfully: "Everyone, today's first gift is going to spoil everyone's interest."

"Why?" everyone asked in unison.

Feng Chuli pointed to the Jixiang Tower with high lanterns not far away, and said helplessly: "Several guests have come from the provincial capital and are waiting at the Jixiang Tower. These are business friends and cannot be neglected at all. I have to go there in person. As a guest, it will be inconvenient for me to accompany you as a first gift."

After he finished speaking, he looked at Yang Xi with pleading eyes, "I brought Qingyu out tonight because she begged her in every possible way before I took her out for a stroll. She usually stays in the boudoir and rarely comes out to hang out. She doesn't know that people outside are sinister. I If she is not with her, please take care of her, Brother Yang."

Tang Qingyu nervously picked up the hem of her skirt and scolded with a smile: "Oh, I'm such a big man, and I have a servant following me, so nothing will happen."

Feng Chuli's expression suddenly changed, and he rebuked coldly: "That won't work."

Yang Xi thought of the vicious trafficker who had just snatched the child on the street, "Brother Feng is right, Qingyu, you must follow us every step of the way and don't move around at will. Don't worry, I will keep an eye on her."

"..." Tang Qingyu's cheeks were slightly red, and Li Jiao held her hand again and smiled, "Yes, Chu Li, don't worry. With Yang Xi, the yamen arrester here, any thief who doesn't know what to do will dare to come here." If he looks for trouble, he will be beaten all over the place."

Feng Chuli pursed his lips and smiled, then bowed his hands and said, "Then I will hand over Qingyu to you and say goodbye."

Li Jiao watched Feng Chuli go away, secretly pinched Tang Qingyu's sensitive waist, and teased in a low voice: "Little girl, the autumn wind is howling, and it's too cold to shiver. Why are you blushing instead?"

"Oh, Sister Jiao... don't make fun of me." Tang Qingyu blushed a little bit more. Li Jiao was not satisfied yet and still said, "Such a big girl, what's the point of talking?"

"Don't!" Tang Qingyu pursed her lips and hummed, looking back nervously at the two people behind her. Before Li Jiao could say anything, she quickly took Li Jiao's hand and walked ahead.

Shen Yunzhi glanced sideways at Yang Xi, who looked calm beside him, and sighed regretfully: "Oh, I think all my hard work was in vain."

As Yang Xi walked, he paid attention to the crowd around him to see if there was anything strange. After confirming that nothing happened, he replied to Shen Yunzhi, "Who's working hard in vain?"

Shen Yunzhi touched the mustache on his lips, "It's nothing, I was just walking. I thought of the patients I had seen a few days ago and felt that my work was in vain."

Yang Xi looked at Shen Yunzhi suspiciously and realized that the two women, Li Jiao and Tang Qingyu, had gone far away. He immediately came back to his senses, grabbed Shen Yunzhi's arm, and the two quickened their pace to follow.

On the other side, Zhou Chenyu followed Baoyu to find Chen Tongsheng, and the three of them returned to the small table by the lake.

Li Xiuju stepped forward worriedly. Seeing that Zhou Chenyu was fine, she breathed a sigh of relief and smiled, "You came back just in time. After we settle the bill here, we'll buy a few river lanterns and set them off. It's time to go home." It's time to reward him. The moon was over, and the people who should be met were also met. Zhou Chenyu looked at the colorful lotus lanterns floating in the water, nodded and smiled: "Okay, I will listen to you."

Although it was almost late at night, the lights in the city were still very bright.

The stone steps on both sides of the river are filled with people praying for blessings. They may be a few members of a family, sisters, relatives and friends, or pairs of infatuated men and women. Everyone is guarding the river in groups, each with a face on their face. There were beaming smiles all over them.

After they bought the lotus lanterns, they started looking for a place to put them.Baoyu searched along the shore and finally found a space that could accommodate six or seven people. He occupied the spot and quickly waved to the large troops coming from behind.

"There is a place here, there is a place here! Sister, come quickly! If it's too late, others will come."

Zhou Chenyu and Chen Tongsheng looked at each other and hurriedly walked up, "Come on, come on."

Mrs. Wang looked at the jade that moved like a rabbit, patted Li Xiuju's hand, and said with a smile: "After all, he is a child, full of energy, unlike us, who are already old."

"It's outrageous to be so frizzy." Li Xiuju scolded, holding hands with Mrs. Wang, and followed slowly, accompanied by Shuqing Hongmei.

Everyone rushed to the river one after another. The bright lights and the smiling faces of people complemented each other. Lotus lanterns in red, pink, yellow and orange floated along the flowing water to the middle of the water, filling the entire river.

Mrs. Wang put the lamp in her hand into the water beforehand, and then looked at the young people, "What blessings are you going to pray for?"

Hongmei wiped the corner of the child's drooling mouth and looked at Zhou Shuqing, who was holding the lamp.

Zhou Shuqing lowered his eyes and carefully put the river lantern into the water, with a happy smile on his face, "I am greedy. I hope God will bless you, grandma, to live a long life, and that your children will grow up healthily, and our family will be forever." All staying together.”

Chen Tongsheng looked at their happy family with envious eyes and smiled frankly: "I will get married as soon as possible, marry a good wife, and have a few fat boys. If this wish can come true, it will be so beautiful to me." "

Mrs. Wang pinched his strong arm and nodded with satisfaction, "A good man like you will definitely find a good girl. If you don't mind, Xiuju and I will look for some girls for you."

Although Chen Tongsheng is a arrogant and arrogant man, he still felt a little impatient when talking about this matter in front of everyone, "How can that be done?"

"Why not? You are my godson, so I should be like this." Li Xiuju answered confidently, then glanced at Zhou Chenyu with pity.

Zhou Chenyu pretended to be stupid and looked away, holding the carefully selected light yellow lotus lantern in his hand, "You've all finished praying, it's my turn."

The old man selling the lanterns said that after lighting the river lanterns, the later the lights are extinguished, the better the blessings will be.

As a person who has been studying hard for sixteen years, Zhou Chenyu should not believe in these feudal superstitions, but today is a day when the moon is full and people are reunited, so it is not impossible to do as the Romans do in the countryside.

She picked up her skirt, held the lantern and walked down the stone steps. She slowly placed the lotus lantern in the water and watched it float away. She clasped her hands together and made a wish to the lantern devoutly:
"Oh my God, my God, I know it's a bit difficult for you to send me Zhou Chenyu back to modern times. In fact, I don't ask for much. For the sake of your embarrassment, you can wish me a fortune."

At this time, people came one after another from the other side.
