On August 15th, the autumn light was wonderful.

Although there is no festival in the Shuifu Mansion, the servants are still given festive clothes, fresh fruits, and moon cakes of various colors. However, they do not light lanterns, admire the moon, or hold banquets. Everyone has a holiday. The entire Tokyo is decorated with lanterns and colorful lights.

At that moment, the newly promoted general's mansion seemed particularly deserted and lonely.

Qiu Shuanghua is dressed in plain clothes, and the curved train style in the front shows her slender waist. Her hair is like clouds, with only two plain silver hairpins inserted, but she does not look haggard and shabby. It contrasts with a more delicate look, and with her

She is as beautiful as a flower, and her appearance can really be said to be as described in the sentence: with a coquettish head and eyebrows, a charming smile, and beautiful eyes.

Unfortunately, Shui Shiqiao's face was serious, and his expression was no different from the aunt he saw selling vegetables on the street.

"It's better... don't go out." Although the words he spoke were gentle, they still conveyed a sense of alienation.

Qiu Shuanghua raised her face slightly, looked at Shui Shiqiao, her eyes flashed, "Husband...brother...gang leader, don't I have to go out today and now? During the period of mourning, no entertainment is allowed. Is Shuanghua an ignorant and heartless person?"

"She changed her names three times, feeling a little at a loss.

This is the wife's position, and she wants to be called husband, but she can't. She used to be Mrs. Shi's serious adopted daughter, but Liuli took the position, and she couldn't call her brother. So the title of gang leader revealed incomparable forbearance and grievance, and still

There is an indescribable understanding. In addition, there is a feeling of loneliness and loneliness, and a lot of sadness when being forced to give up... Shui Shiqiao will feel ashamed if he has a little bit of humanity, right?

Therefore, don't underestimate these three words that have been changed from one's mouth, but they are exactly what hurt people's hearts.

Sure enough, Shui Shiqiao's face looked a little unbearable. He sighed, "I don't blame you, I know you are well-educated and sensible. It's just... I miss my loved ones more during the festive season... Last year during the Mid-Autumn Festival, my mother even made mooncakes for me..." In his eyes,

Already wet.

To have a child that you want to raise but to have a loved one without you is a pain and regret that can never be made up for in a person's life.

Qiu Shuanghua took a step forward and held Shui Shiqiao's wrist. Her jade-like fingers were as white as flawless and looked strangely moving. She said sincerely with tears in her eyes. "I miss my mother too... No more than the gang leader, I left my mother nine years ago."

Years later, I found my family again, but...my heart is only more painful than that of the gang leader. But the gang leader didn't listen to me. I want to go out, not to watch the lanterns and admire the moon. During the period of observing filial piety, if I still care about these things, I am still a human being.

Is it? Baiyunguan held a Dharma ceremony in the city this year, called "Ci'en", to pray for the deceased ancestors on the festival of world reunion. They also set up lighthouses, a total of 499 lights. I spent a lot of money

It took a lot of effort to light one for my mother, doesn’t the gang leader want to go and have a look and kowtow in front of the pagoda?”

Shui Shiqiao was startled and a little moved. He seemed to say unintentionally, "You don't go out, but you know about this good deed. I haven't heard of it."

Qiu Shuanghua felt a little nervous, but quickly covered it up, "I had planned to light a lantern for my mother to die in the Taoist temple, and asked people to inquire privately. But when I heard the news, I asked Shi'er to donate incense. It was not easy.

I just got a spot."

"You are really thoughtful." Shui Shiqiao looked a little grateful and glanced at his wrist.

Qiu Shuanghua seemed to have just realized that she had overstepped the rules and hurriedly withdrew her hand, very flustered and extremely shy. In fact, she took the opportunity to look at her girl Shi'er. The girl was very quiet and stood behind Shui Shiqiao. When she saw her young lady

He looked up and blinked.

Shui Shiqiao was unaware, but finally nodded and said, "Okay, let's go kowtow and you go call Liuli..."

"Okay." Qiu Shuanghua responded.

But as soon as he looked at Shi'er, the latter was very cooperative and said, "Miss Qizhen, I'm afraid the eldest lady is not in the house." She was timid.

"How is that possible?" Qiu Shuanghua was "surprised" at first.

After a brief glance, he saw Shui Shiqiao frowning, and then he "reprimanded" Shi'er and said, "During the mourning period, it is also a big festival. Where can the eldest lady go? You must be dazzled and saw it wrong!" Then he turned to Shui Shi.

Qiao, "I'm going to call my sister right away and help you clean up. We'll leave immediately, otherwise we'll waste time..."

"There's no need to call Liuli. Why let her see mother's lamp and make her sad again." Shui Shiqiao interrupted her, "There's no need to go back home to call for a carriage. You can take your sedan chair and I'll ride the horse."

Don't worry, I will take good care of you." Even if the two courtyards are adjacent and there is just another door, Qiu Shuanghua will still take a small sedan when coming from the main courtyard of Shuifu, showing off her elegant style as a lady.

When she heard Shui Shiqiao's words to protect her, Qiu Shuanghua's face turned red. Even under the moonlight, it was impossible to ignore.

"Wait a moment." Shui Shiqiao said these two words and went back to the house.

Shi'er immediately came up and whispered, "Don't worry, Miss, there won't be any business trips over there."

Qiu Shuanghua sneered slightly.

Staring at Shui Liuli was very rewarding, and I learned that she sent her girl Qing Ning to the Linshan County Prince's Mansion. Later, the Linshan County Prince happily booked the best private room in Shuiyue Xuan, and it will be held on the Mid-Autumn Festival.

Of course, she didn't know what kind of letter Shui Liuli sent to Prince Linshan, but thinking of Shui Liuli's ambiguous relationship with the romantic Prince, she also heard from the servants in the mansion that Shui Liuli had arranged it

I went out on the night of August 15th and secretly didn't tell Shui Shiqiao. It was speculated that they might have met during the Mid-Autumn Festival.

Just now, Shui Shiqiao said she wanted to go to the Dharma conference together, because she knew that her "sister" was restless, and she was afraid that it would be embarrassing to go to someone else, right?

Before, she was worried about how to catch Shui Liuli's mistake, so after getting the news, even if she couldn't make a complete conclusion, she had to be ready to take action. As the saying goes, an opportunity cannot be missed, and it will never come back. For her, it is natural to use all possible means.

She was taking advantage of it. It happened that Baiyunguan was going to hold this ceremony, so she tried her best to get on the list of people who would light the lamps, so that she could have an excuse to drag Shui Shiqiao out. She thought that even if she couldn't step on Shui Liuli, she could win over Shui Shiqiao with this move.

Joe's favor. When she does something, she never gets only one benefit.

Arrangements were made, and Shi'er was asked to keep an eye on Shengshengju early in the morning. As expected, Shi'er saw Shui Liuli go out, taking Qing Ning and Wei Wei, two girls who loved to run out. Although it was a cold Mid-Autumn night, Shui Liuli was always like this

People who are not afraid of the cold wear hoodies that hang down to the ground. They are obviously afraid that people will see their faces. The whole thing is full of the atmosphere of adultery.

"Entering Shuiyuexuan?" She was always cautious and made sure again.

Shi'er nodded. "The news is that we have indeed entered, and it is Youlan House." In order to show elegance, the private rooms in Shuiyuexuan have individual flower names. "Miss, please move quickly, so as not to pounce on you."

Empty." Shi'er urged in a low voice.

"Why are you so anxious?" Qiu Shuanghua calmly said, "Between men and women, it takes time to get into a better place. If you go too early, what you see may not be of enough weight." The prince of Linshan County is so handsome and unparalleled.

.Drunk by the wine, the fierce*woman has also become a slut. These days, she has not been idle and has inquired a lot about the reputation of the county prince among the aristocratic girls and girls in Tokyo... She concluded that he is not

How can a gentleman refuse to eat the meat that reaches his mouth? Men, aren’t they all that virtuous?

If the timing is right, Shui Shiqiao will see the scene she is most looking forward to. Let's see how he can be more affectionate than Jin Jian. Unfortunately, she and His Highness Prince Jin have not yet been able to talk, otherwise all good things will be messed up tonight.

When a man is sad and angry, it is too easy to be attacked.

Just as he was thinking about it, Shui Shiqiao had already packed up and took her out with him.

The street was bustling with people, so they walked very slowly. Because the meeting place was across the street where the Lantern Festival was held, cars and horses couldn't squeeze through, so they had to leave the cars and all the people on foot.

Qiu Shuanghua's face was beautiful and unconventional, attracting the attention of many passers-by. She frowned slightly, as if she was a little annoyed. She turned her head slightly and saw the golden plaque of Shuiyuexuan. It was luxurious and elegant.

She groaned, with a look of pain on her face.

"What's wrong?" Shui Shiqiao was surprised, but looked concerned.

"My ankle is sprained, it's okay." Qiu Shuanghua frowned slightly, but shook her head and continued to move forward against the flow of people.

But just after taking a step, he bent down again with a groan, his lips were bitten until they were completely bloodless.

Shi'er looked anxious, "Miss, your foot has been broken before. It still hurts when it's cloudy and rainy. But be careful. Sprains can be big or small. If the injury is serious, it will be a big trouble."

Then, he begged Shui Shiqiao, "Gang leader, it's better to find a place to take a look quickly. Even if there is no doctor, the gang leader is a martial arts practitioner, so there is always some way to deal with injuries, right?"

Shuishi Qiao is in trouble.

On the street, there were people everywhere, and it was so crowded that even when she turned around, where could she find a quiet place to look at her foot injury? Moreover, even if the atmosphere in Tokyo was open in public, there was no reason for a woman to take off her shoes and socks in public.

"I'm fine, no need to bother. Just stop for a while and I can leave." Qiu Shuanghua continued, "Don't cause trouble." There was a bit of guilt on her face, which made Shui Shiqiao unable to refuse.

"How about finding a place in this restaurant?" Shi'er suggested.

Shuiyuexuan is one of the best restaurants in Tokyo. But now, Shui Shiqiao could only nod.

In desperation, she stretched out her long arms and held Qiu Shuanghua by her side to prevent her from limping and being unable to move two feet for a long time. Then she leaned on the broad shoulders, and the strong masculine breath entered her nose, and Qiu Shuanghua felt her body

All crispy.

The drought has lasted for more than a year, and my heart has long been filled with emotions. Although the man in the past was from an extremely noble family, his appearance and figure were far inferior to those of Shui Shiqiao and His Royal Highness Prince Jin, let alone Prince Linshan. Although Shui Liuli was designed, I thought

That woman could take possession of a top-notch man like the Prince of Linshan, and she would always feel at a loss and very jealous.

During the Mid-Autumn Festival, everyone gathers happily, every family is reunited, and it is said that lanterns are put on. Therefore, the common people go out to parade, watch lanterns, and admire the moon. The dignitaries, scholars and talented people also "have fun with the people." Therefore, the restaurants are full,

Still no room available.

Shui Shiqiao was worried, but Qiu Shuanghua came to the rescue and said, "It's not a serious injury. Why don't we ask the shopkeeper to let us go to the second floor. The private room must be closed, so we can find a corner and clean up quickly."

The shopkeeper knew Shui Shiqiao. After hearing this suggestion, he immediately agreed, "There is a small serving stall on the second floor. It is at the end of the building. I asked the waiter not to go up there for the time being to make it convenient for General Shui."

…………………………

…………………………

…………66 has something to say……

Naimian guessed, Shuanghua succeeded? Liuli fell into the trap?

I couldn't help but make fun of Shuanghua's "flower-like" beauty. Like a flower, little friends, haha.
