Chapter 52 Excessive
East Street was even more lively than last night, with people coming and going, and there was a bustle of people everywhere.

Zuo Zimo and the others were extremely excited, but Zuo Xiangning could think of that man every time she walked.

She didn't expect that she would remember it so clearly, as if it was engraved in her mind.

"Sister Xiang Ning, do you like this lantern?" Jiang Ruochen saw her staring at the rabbit lantern in a daze, and reached out to buy it and handed it to her hand, "I think the lotus lantern is also very beautiful. Did you buy it for you to hang on the corridor?"

"Thank you, cousin, this one is enough." Zuo Xiangning smiled and took it.

"Cousin, look!" Zuo Xiangyu took Jiang Ruochen's arm and pointed at the five to six meter high rabbit lantern in front of Fuxiang Restaurant, "How beautiful!"

"Let's go to Fuxiang and see if we can book a private room on the second floor." Zuo Zimo led the way.

Zuo Ziteng followed him and looked back at Zuo Xiangyu and others, "Hurry up too."

Zuo Xiangyu's fingers kept tugging on Jiang Ruochen's sleeves, and she said delicately: "There are too many people today, so don't get separated."

Zuo Xiangning had no other thoughts about Jiang Ruochen, but she couldn't let Zuo Xiangyu stick to the Jiang family.

If Zuo Xiangyu married into the Jiang family, it would be embarrassing to think about it.

"Sister Xiang Ning?" Jiang Ruochen stood there waiting for Zuo Xiang Ning.

Zuo Xiangning walked to him slowly and said, "My third brother and second brother are going to reserve seats first, so we don't have to be in such a hurry."

"Fourth sister's temper is too slow, and she is not clean and free at all." Zuo Xiangyu never forgot to step on her.

"The third sister is so hot-tempered, why don't you leave first with the second brother?" Zuo Xiangning asked with a smile.

Zuo Ziteng originally wanted to book a seat with Zuo Zimo first, but thinking about Zuo Xiangyu pushing Zuo Xiangning into the water twice, he walked back through the crowd uneasy.

"Why are you walking so slowly?" Zuo Ziteng looked at the two people standing on the left and right, stepped forward and pulled Zuo Xiangyu and said, "Hurry up!"

"Fourth sister is too slow!" Zuo Xiangyu stamped her foot, let go of Jiang Ruochen's sleeves, and followed Zuo Ziteng forward, "Second brother, why do you blame me for everything?"

"Sister Xiangning, let's go too." Jiang Ruochen stretched out his hand to help Zuo Xiangning to ward off the pedestrian who almost missed her.

"Cousin, it's best to stay away from the third sister." Zuo Xiangning didn't want anything to happen between Jiang Ruochen and Zuo Xiangyu, so she simply said directly: "Her mother, Aunt Liu, was not acting appropriately."

"Don't worry, sister Xiang Ning, I can still tell who is distant and who is close." Jiang Ruochen said with a smile: "You are my cousin."

"It's good that my cousin knows." Zuo Xiangning felt relieved when she saw that Jiang Ruochen didn't look unhappy at all. She took two steps forward and followed Jiang Ruochen.

Just as they were about to reach the entrance of Fuxiang Restaurant, a little boy suddenly ran out from the alley next to him. Everyone screamed and dodged. Zuo Xiangning was so squeezed that she almost fell. Jiang Ruochen hurriedly stepped forward and hugged her. Her shoulders, pulling her into his arms.

"younger sister?"

When Zuo Xiangning heard Zuo Zimo's exclamation, she looked up at the second floor of Fuxiang Restaurant and saw four or five heads appearing by the window.

There are Zuo Zimo, Gu Zhiqing, and Ling Xiao.

Zuo Xiangning's body suddenly froze on the spot.

"Sister Xiang Ning? What's wrong with you? Did you twist your foot?" Jiang Ruochen leaned over and asked worriedly.

He looked so anxious that he wanted to pick her up.

"I'm fine." Zuo Xiangning blinked, looked away, and gently pushed Jiang Ruochen away.

"I was shocked." Jiang Ruochen breathed a sigh of relief, "There are really too many people here today, let's go in quickly."

Zuo Xiangning thought of the two people she saw just now and didn't want to go upstairs at all. "Cousin, I heard that there are lantern riddles in Wangyue Tower these days. Shall we go and guess the lantern riddles?"

"Okay." Jiang Ruochen smiled and nodded, "It's just that I don't know where Wangyue Tower is?"

"I know." Zuo Xiangning pulled Jiang Ruochen and was about to walk west when she was grabbed by Zuo Zimo who ran out of the restaurant.

"Where are you going?" Zuo Zimo asked Zuo Xiangning with concern, "You weren't hurt just now, were you?"

"I'm fine." Zuo Xiangning glanced at the window upstairs. There was no one there. "I want to go to Wangyue Tower with my cousin to guess lantern riddles."

"Let's have something to eat here first, and then go to Wangyue Tower." Zuo Zimo held the two of them one by one, "I've even finished ordering the dishes."

"Third brother, my cousin and I don't want to eat yet." Zuo Xiangning stood there and refused to go up.

"Be obedient, and I will buy you some candies later." Zuo Zimo coaxed her, "I also want to introduce some friends to my cousin. He will come to the capital in the future. It will be easier to get to know a few more people in the future."

"Sister Xiang Ning, we are already here. It would be rude if we didn't go up and say hello." Jiang Ruochen also said, "Let's go up and stay for a while, and I will accompany you to guess lantern riddles."

Zuo Xiangning could not refuse anymore, so she could only follow them to the second floor.

Opening the door, Zuo Xiangning looked at a room of about ten people and couldn't help but be stunned.

It turned out that not only the people at the window just now were there, but also the King of Qi, the King of Chu, the fifth prince, and a few people he didn't know.

"The fourth sister is here." King Chu said to Zuo Xiangning affectionately: "Your eldest sister talks about you every day, so go over and accompany her when you have time."

"Okay." Zuo Xiangning agreed with a smile.

"What a coincidence, your second sister always talks about you." King Qi said with a smile: "Your second sister also left crabs for you and your third sister. Someone will pick you up tomorrow morning."

"Thank you, His Highness Prince Qi, and my second sister." Zuo Xiangning pursed her lips and smiled, then asked Zuo Zimo, "Where is my third sister?"

"She's next door." Zuo Xiangning was sent to the small private room next door by Zuo Zimo.

"You and Third Sister will play here for a while. We'll have a glass of wine in that room and then come over." Zuo Zimo hurriedly explained and went back to the next door.

Zuo Xiangyu was sitting by the window watching the excitement. When he saw her coming in, he turned around and smiled at her: "What are you doing, fourth sister, so far away from me? Are you afraid that I will push you downstairs?"

"Isn't Third Sister going crazy? You can say such crazy things." Zuo Xiangning sat down at the table.

Zuo Xiangyu also sat at the table and sneered: "Do you think that now that my aunt has been defeated, you are superior to me?"

"Third sister, you and I are biological sisters, not life-and-death enemies." Zuo Xiangning poured her a cup of tea, "We are a family. We are both prosperous and devastated."

"I can't afford it." Zuo Xiangyu said coldly: "You are now my aunt's favorite. Before I even had hairpins, I bought you a dowry worth tens of thousands of taels. Who can compare to you? But I think we are together. For the sake of growing up, I have to remind you that you are a concubine! Your mother is just a dowry girl, and she is not as good as my aunt!"

"So what?" Zuo Xiangning asked lightly.

Zuo Xiangning knows that Zuo Xiangyu has a bad temper and can't resist anger. As long as you don't get angry, she can make herself half angry to death.

"What do you say?" Zuo Xiangyu stood on her head with her eyebrows and said angrily: "You are just a fool! Now the second sister wants you to be the second young mistress of the Gu family, and you are still not happy, okay! You wait until my second sister gives birth to the emperor's grandson. Yes, you will have to become a concubine in the Gu family!"

"I'm confused, why do you have to let me be the second young lady of the Gu family? Can't I be the eldest young lady of the Gu family?" Zuo Xiangning asked doubtfully.

"You have a beautiful idea!" Zuo Xiangyu suddenly stood up, "No wonder you don't agree to marry the second young master of the Gu family. It turns out that you have fallen in love with the eldest young master of the Gu family! You are so shameless... …”

Zuo Ziteng pushed the door in and saw Zuo Xiangyu pointing coldly at Zuo Xiangning. He quickly closed the door, stepped forward to block Zuo Xiangning, knocked off Zuo Xiangyu's arm, and shouted: "Zuo Xiangyu , you went too far!"
