The Reborn Noble Daughter

Chapter 136 136. Lantern

In Feng Jinlin's yard, there are a lot of bamboo strips and things used for making lanterns piled up.

Songnan and Songbei looked at their master who was blushing but helpless, and almost laughed out loud.

Feng Jinlin, a man of both civil and military skills, and a master of all things romantic, was actually stumped by making a lantern. Looking at the "lantern" in front of him with teeth and claws, for a moment, he felt that he was really stupid.

Looking at Yin Canwen on the side, the bamboo strips used as lanterns seemed to be alive in his hands. The frame was set up in a short time. Feng Jinlin took a closer look and saw that it was unusual.

“Canwen, what is your lantern made of? Why can’t I see it?”

Yin Canwen was busy with his work and was always working on it. Soon, the prototype of the lantern suddenly appeared in front of his eyes, "It turned out to be a rabbit!"

 Feng Jinlin was a little surprised. He didn't expect his hands to be so skillful.

Then, the white oilcloth paper followed the outline of the rabbit and wrapped it little by little, leaving a place for candles underneath. The rest was sealed tightly. The two ears were raised high, and the eyes and mouth were covered with a pen. Draw it out.

In just one stick of incense, the rabbit lantern is ready.

“When I was young, my family was poor, and my mother would help others make lanterns to supplement the family income. I learned from her, so I got started quickly.”

Yin Canwen handed over the rabbit. Feng Jinlin looked around and couldn't help but praise, "I have to keep this lantern. When you are in high school, I will sell it on the black market. I will definitely get a good price."

The second young master who was a dignified household minister turned out to have the face of a profiteer. Yin Canwen was teased by him so much that any sense of inferiority he felt disappeared.

Outside the courtyard gate, Xiangqiu brought something. As soon as he entered the door, he saw the rabbit lantern. He was very surprised and stepped forward to salute Feng Jinlin.

“Second Master, did you make this lantern?”

“Hydrangea, are you just cursing me in a roundabout way? Do you think I, the second young master of the Feng family, can make such a girly lantern?”

Songnan and Songbei tried their best to hold back their smiles. Xiangqiu was puzzled. Then he lowered his head and saw the "lantern" at his feet. He understood in his heart, "Oh, it turns out that this is what the second master did. I'm blind, what kind of lantern is this?" Yeah? Turtle tortoise?"

Songnan couldn't help it anymore and burst into laughter. Songbei gave a thumbs up to the hydrangea. You still have such poisonous eyes!

Feng Jinlin's nostrils were filled with smoke, "What a tortoise! ​​That's the basalt beast I made!!"

This time it was Xiangqiu's turn to be dumbfounded. She couldn't even imagine that the pile of "things" in front of her were the basalt beasts she had seen in the book. Yin Canwen couldn't help but chuckle beside her.

 Taking the rabbit lantern, he said very innocently, "Hey, it's easier to be a Guanghan Palace Jade Rabbit."

“So this rabbit lantern was made by Mr. Yin. Let me tell you, how could the second master be so clever and clever?” Xiangqiu looked like she suddenly realized something, which made Feng Jinlin angry, but he couldn’t do anything to her.

“Don’t be angry, Mr. Miss. My lady’s lantern is similar to a mythical beast like yours. I spent an entire afternoon building it with bamboo sticks, but nothing came out.”

Feng Jinlin felt much better when she thought that her sister was also helpless.

“It’s probably because the Feng family are all stupid, and it’s not my problem alone, right?”

Xiangqiu chuckled. Being interrupted by him, she almost forgot her purpose and handed over the box in her hand. "This is the fluorescent powder sent by Miss Xu. It is said to be the most beautiful when applied on a lantern. Even if the candle is extinguished, the fluorescent powder will remain intact." It can also be exposed at night. The young lady asked me to send it to the second master and Mr. Yin."

Feng Jinlin's eyes were poisonous. He could tell from the look on the box that it was made by Ouchi. He asked out of curiosity, "How come the Miss Xu family has this thing?"

"I heard from Haitang next to my cousin that Princess Fulin recognized Miss Xu as her goddaughter. This thing was sent by the princess." Princess Fulin's goddaughter?

　Even Feng Jinlin was a little speechless at this time.

These days, the marriage between the Liang family and the Wei family has almost become the most discussed matter in Dongdu City, but every time the Xu family is brought along, this Miss Xu is really innocent.

However, being able to transform into the eldest princess's goddaughter when everyone feels sorry for her is not something ordinary people can do.

“I heard that Princess Fulin likes Miss Xu, and I don’t know if she will become the princess or the head of the county in the future.”

Hydrangea has a very good impression of Xu Mingyue. If she really becomes the princess or county princess one day, it will be her blessing.

"It's hard to say. Princess Fulin is His Majesty's eldest sister, so she is very influential in the court. Her children and grandchildren are all outstanding members of the royal family. It is indeed a blessing for Miss Xu to win her favor. "

What Feng Er said was true. Since the news was released, no one dared to openly discuss Miss Xu's divorce. Otherwise, offending the Iron-faced Princess would bring disaster to the three clans, and no one would do it. What a fool, insisting on causing such trouble.

 “Okay, leave the things, we will use them when the time comes.”

Feng Er explained a few words and asked Xiangqiu to go back to serve him first. Yin Canwen, who was standing by, didn't remember anything else. He only remembered one sentence: Feng Jinyao didn't know how to make lanterns.

 Smile slightly at the corner of his mouth, maybe this is an opportunity.

　　Took the bamboo strips on the side and thought carefully about what kind of lantern to make to match her.

In Ning'an Courtyard, Feng Jinyao looked at the bamboo strips all over the table and had no idea what to do. "Hey, it's not enough to beat up a female celebrity who is small. It's easier for me to write and paint."

Although making lanterns is not the same as making lanterns, they are both handicrafts. Perhaps as Feng Jinlin said, no one in the Feng family has any accomplishments in this area. If you think about it, you won't embarrass yourself.

Yun Xu was very handy and quickly made a lantern with four sides. It was not comparable to Yin Canwen's rabbit lantern, but at least it was a lantern.

 “That’s it.”

As he spoke, he picked up his pen and began to draw on the oil paper. Soon four lifelike festival pictures appeared on the paper.

Yun Xu looked at Feng Jinyao and said with a crooked smile, "Miss's painting skills have improved to a higher level. I look at the child lighting firecrackers, it's really lifelike."

Feng Jinyao’s eyes also fell on that spot. Yes, this was her favorite among the four paintings.

“Fram it up and take it out tomorrow.”

"yes."

The master and the servant were connected and moved quickly. After Hydrangea returned from delivering the fluorescent powder, the lantern was almost ready.

 “Have you accepted it, second brother?”

“Take it, but miss, the lantern made by the second young master is really... amazing.”

After Xiangqiu explained what had just happened, the master and servants all laughed. The second brother was still the same second brother. Feng Jinyao hoped in her heart that he would always be so wanton and happy.
