Chapter 40: Putting Lights

Seeing her brother's stunned look, Ji Wanyi couldn't help but smile: "I have never seen my eldest brother like this, but don't worry, brother, you won't be able to tell that this cloak is a women's one. It looks very good."

Ji Nanyi glanced at Ji Wanyi helplessly, and then thanked Wen Yunxi: "Thank you, Princess Yunxi."

"There is a pastry shop in front that is very delicious. Do you want to try it?" Gu Shiqi asked. Ji Wanyi became more energetic when she heard that: "Then go quickly."

Ji Wanyi and Gu Shiqi walked in front, followed closely by Wen Yunxi and Ji Nanyi.

"Princess Yunxi has a wild temper. She must have been very naughty when she was a child, right?" Ji Nan suddenly started talking about Wen Yunxi's childhood. Wen Yunxi didn't care: "I don't remember much about my childhood, but my mother-in-law

He said that I was indeed quite naughty, but later I became obedient as I grew up."

"But I see that Princess Yunxi is still not obedient." Ji Nanyi joked.

Wen Yunxi was a little embarrassed: "No matter how my temper changes, I'm still me. Now I don't dare to speak in some big occasions, for fear that if I say the wrong thing, my father will be unhappy."

"The position of the princess means that she will not be able to do whatever she wants throughout her life. I heard that the princess has a good relationship with Princess Wan Yang of Dong Xia. Princess Wan Yang is the princess of Dong Xia, so she had no choice but to marry her to Xi Chu.

People in high positions are more constrained."

"I understand what you mean, so every time I see Wan Yang, it's like seeing me in the future. Therefore, I want to be nicer to Wanyang. I just hope that someone will be nice to me in the future."

Wen Yunxi's words were a little sad, and Ji Nanyi fell silent.

"Why am I telling you this? Today is the first time we have met, and I have said such unpleasant things to you."

"I was also the one who started the topic. No wonder the princess. But the princess said something wrong. Today is not the first time you and I have met."

Wen Yunxi was a little curious: "Have we met somewhere before? But this shouldn't be the case. I will never forget your appearance once I see it."

"Thank you for the compliment, Princess Yunxi, but you must have forgotten."

"Then please remind me, I really don't remember seeing you."

Ji Nanyi did not answer Wen Yunxi, letting Wen Yunxi think for herself.

The dim sum shop that Gu Shiqi took them to was indeed delicious. Wen Yunxi ate various dim sums and quickly forgot about the matter.

Lian Zhi and Wen Zhiyuan bought two river lanterns and came to the river. Many people had gathered by the river, so they chose a relatively remote place to put the river lanterns.

Lian Zhi carefully placed the river lantern on the water, closed her eyes, clasped her hands together, and silently made a wish in her heart.

After she made her wish, she opened her eyes and saw Wen Zhiyuan's face: "Why don't you make a wish? Why are you looking at me?"

Wen Zhiyuan pointed to his own river lantern. The river lantern he placed and the river lantern placed by Lian Zhi were floating together on the water: "I have already made a wish. I see that you are so serious about your wish, and I am thinking about you.

What are you wishing for?"

Lian Zhi stood up: "You must be laughing at me for believing in making a wish."

"No, it's just the first time I've seen you take something so seriously."

"Actually, I know that making a wish is the most unrealistic thing in the world. Why can you get something that others have paid so much to get, just by thinking about it in your heart? Making a wish is a kind of beautiful sustenance.

When people make a wish, they can't help but think about those beautiful scenes, and just now I was lost in thought."

Wen Zhiyuan brought up a slightly heavy topic: "You are actually very unhappy when you come to Xichu to get married? But for Dongxia, you can only obey even if you don't want to."

"Everyone is forced to have a last resort, but I think being able to find a way out of the situation is what I want." Lian Zhi replied, looking at the river lanterns floating on the river, "There are many rivers here.

The lamp carries the wishes of many people, but how many wishes can be realized in the end?"

Wen Zhiyuan held Lian Zhi's hand. Lian Zhi came to her senses. She wanted to withdraw her hand, but Wen Zhiyuan held it hard and refused to let her take it back: "The last time I held your hand, yours

My hands are also so cold, I didn’t expect that after so long, there is still no change.”

"I've been cold since I was a child, and my hands and feet would be cold even in summer. I've gotten used to it over the years," Lian Zhi explained.

"Then I will help you warm your hands from now on." Wen Zhiyuan looked at Lian Zhi. Under the night, his eyes were even deeper. Lian Zhi looked at the hands held by the two of them, as if Wen Zhiyuan was not only warm.

Just her hands were warming her cold heart.

"Let's go back." Lian Zhi and Wen Zhiyuan walked back, but Wen Zhiyuan never let go of Lian Zhi's hand.

As the night got darker, the number of pedestrians on the road gradually decreased. After Wen Zhilan sent Xiao Yunwei back, he came to the place agreed with Wen Yunxi to wait for her.

"This year's lantern festival is almost over, so don't sell lanterns here. No one will buy them."

"I'll wait a little longer, maybe someone still needs it."

"It's not safe for a girl like you to buy lanterns here at night."

"I think if I sell more lanterns, I can make more money. My mother's illness is too serious, and I have to make money for medicine."

"well……"

The aunt couldn't resist the woman, so she picked up the burden and left first.

In the past, Wen Zhilan would not have cared about this matter, but today Wen Zhilan was in a good mood, and seeing that the woman selling lanterns was really pitiful, he walked over and said, "I want all your lanterns."

The woman looked up at Wen Zhilan in surprise: "You want all of this?"

Wen Zhilan gave the woman a piece of silver: "Take it."

"My lanterns are not worth so much money."

"If I like it, I will be willing to spend more money. You can take the money and keep these lanterns."

Mo Xuxu finally accepted Wen Zhilan's money: "Thank you, I know you want to help me, and I will definitely repay you in the future."

"The money and goods are all done, you have nothing to repay me for." Wen Zhilan replied calmly.

Mo Xuxu saluted him, then took the money and ran to Rongbao Hall. Rongbao Hall was closed. She knocked on the door hard: "Shopkeeper, I have money, I'm here to get the medicine..."

"Stop knocking. Didn't you see that the door is closed?" The waiter seemed to have heard the noise and replied impatiently from inside.

"Please, saving one life is better than building a seven-level pagoda. I'm just asking for a medicine. I'm begging you."

"Come back tomorrow morning." The person inside only replied this sentence and then there was no movement. No matter how hard Mo Xuxu knocked on the door, he would not answer.

"Sister, why are you still here? Come back with me quickly." A man ran over and grabbed Mo Xuxu, wanting to take her back.

Mo Xuxu shook his head: "No, if we can't catch the medicine again, aunt..."

"Sister, my aunt is dying. If you don't come back with me, you won't be able to see her for the last time."

Listening to Mo Junting's words, Mo Xuxu couldn't believe it: "What did you say?"

"Come back with me quickly." Mo Junting did not dare to delay, so he pulled Mo Xuxu and ran to the Prime Minister's Mansion.

The two sneaked in through the back door and walked into a dilapidated small courtyard. As soon as they entered the house, they saw a sallow-faced woman lying dying on the bed.

"Auntie, how are you?" Mo Xuxu ran forward and knelt in front of the low bed, stretched out his hand and took the woman's hand.

"Where is the Prime Minister?" Even at the last moment of her life, Aunt Liu was still thinking about Prime Minister Mo.

Mo Xuxu and Mo Junting are the concubine and concubine of Prime Minister Mo. They are suppressed on weekdays. Their biological mother is sick and they don't even have money to buy medicine. The Wang family has been working with Aunt Liu for so many years, just to get them to

She died. Now that she was about to die, how could he spend money on her medical treatment?

As for Prime Minister Mo, that person is simply a cold-blooded and heartless man. Mrs. Liu has been with him for so many years, and she usually ignores her, and even turns a blind eye to the bullying of her children. Now, she doesn't even want to see Mrs. Liu for the last time.
