When they heard someone shouting, everyone went out looking for fame.
While Ming Jue stretched out his hands to protect Wan'er and Ming Qi, he also followed everyone's gaze and looked at the people coming and going.
When he saw the person coming, his eyes lit up.
A girl in her mid-teens, fifteen or sixteen, wearing a goose-yellow dress was walking towards the group of them. The night wind blew her long black hair, raising beautiful arcs in the bright light and shadow.
What a beautiful girl.
As she came closer, everyone could see her more clearly.
He is tall, neither fat nor thin, with an oval face, crescent eyebrows, and two bright, bright eyes.
Her appearance is not stunning, but she has a calm, noble and dignified appearance. Her appearance is also considered to be first-class. Looking at her dress, although it is simple, you can see that the clothes are rich and luxurious, and she is low-key and luxurious.
, I want to be rich and wealthy at home.
As soon as the woman walked in front of everyone, she glared at the eccentric young man with her almond-shaped eyes. She looked at him touching his nose and lowering his head in disbelief. Then she asked about the reason, then turned around and saluted and apologized to Qiao Mingjin and others.
Qiao Mingjin saw that her governor Ming Li had a good attitude, so she smiled and said she misunderstood.
The woman secretly breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that Qiao Mingjin and others didn't care.
He said to Qiao Mingjin: "I made everyone laugh. To be honest, my cousin has long been interested in this lantern, but he is not good at guessing crossword puzzles. He just asked several people for help to get the answer. After all this running
, I came back and saw that the lanterns had been won away by someone, and I felt very dissatisfied, so I made everyone laugh."
After saying that, he leaned over and saluted, and even pulled the young man to apologize.
It’s not like I’ve never seen lanterns before. How old are you? How dare you compete with a girl? This girl looks like she’s only over five or six years old, and she’s not afraid of others laughing at her.
The young man's surname was Zhou and his given name was Shanxian. He was glared at by his cousin. Naturally, he could see the meaning of his cousin's glance. How could it be possible for him to apologize?
How wronged he was, it would have been fine if the girl had taken it away, but it was actually taken away by an arrogant and aggressive little girl. He originally wanted to exchange other lanterns with the girl, but he didn't know before he could speak.
That damn girl is so stubborn, huh, if she dares to choke on the young master, she will get fat!
Don't apologize to her!
Mingjue found that he was staring at the girl, and he couldn't help but blush a little. He glanced at the girl and said: "Girl, you don't have to be like this. If we had known that this lantern was the young man's favorite, we wouldn't have stolen his heart.
good."
The girl glanced at Ming Jue quickly, lowered her head and said, "No. This lantern was originally a crossword puzzle for others to guess. Of course, whoever guessed it first took it away, but my cousin was unreasonable.
"
Qiao Mingjin couldn't help but feel a little funny when she saw that the young master still looked unconvinced.
Thinking about it, in order to get this lantern, I ran to several people for help, and finally got the answer. It would be a little unpleasant to come back excitedly only to find that someone had jumped in first.
Furthermore, their family had just returned to Yizhou, so they were not familiar with the place and it was difficult to argue with others. Who knew whether they might offend someone they shouldn't.
Then he leaned over and said to Wan'er: "This elder brother was the first to take a fancy to the lantern. Can we give it to this elder brother? Can you please let Wan'er find a better-looking one?"
After hearing this, Wan'er nodded sensibly, and said to Ming Qi: "Auntie, Wan'er doesn't want this lantern anymore. Let uncle win a better-looking one for Wan'er later!"
When Ming Qi heard this, he glared at the young man, then angrily handed him the lantern in his hand.
"Take it!"
When the young man saw it, he became a little angry. He put his hands behind his back, raised his head and said to Ming Qi, "I don't want it!"
What a joke, let others know that I actually snatched the lantern from a girl who was knee high, and they will laugh to death!
Seeing the awkward look on her cousin's face, the girl covered her mouth and laughed. She turned around and said to Wan'er, "You can take it if you like it, little sister. That little brother was just joking with you."
Wan'er looked up at her, then turned to look at her mother. After seeing Qiao Mingjin nod, Fang Huan happily took the lantern from Mingqi's hand. She really liked this lantern.
, the rabbit painted above is very nice.
Ming Qi gave the lantern to Wan'er and snorted heavily at the young man. This man didn't look like he was joking.
Qiao Mingjin glanced at her, and Mingqi became honest.
When Mingjue saw the young lady like this, he said, "Thank you very much, young lady. My niece really likes this lantern. If the young master has a fancy lantern later, I will try to get it for him."
Bar."
After hearing this, Wan'er nodded heavily towards the young man and said, "My uncle is very good at guessing riddles! You will find a lantern that you like in a while, and my uncle will definitely help you win it back!"
The young man was a little embarrassed, but he was not convinced, and hummed: "Your uncle can guess riddles, can he compare to my cousin?"
The girl blushed and scolded him.
Qiao Mingjin glanced at the two people with a smile, and then said: "If this girl doesn't mind, please come with us. It just so happens that the girl and my brother are of the same profession, so they can learn from each other. It just so happens that my daughter hasn't got enough lanterns yet.
Well, I'm afraid he won't go home."
When the girl heard this, she thought about it and nodded, feeling very happy in her heart.
She is good at guessing crossword puzzles. When she meets someone who has the same idea, she has a chance to compare notes. And if she guesses correctly, she can win a lantern.
Although the lanterns here are not as beautiful as those in Beijing, she likes to guess lantern riddles and win lanterns at the lantern festival. If she takes more and gives them to passers-by, they will happily thank her. How interesting it is.
She has been in Yizhou for two months, and she doesn’t have many friends. Her cousins from her grandmother’s family are all older, and only her cousin Shanxian is about the same age as her. These few people don’t look like bad people, so they go together, and they just have some friends.
A companion.
Just as the girl was about to nod, the young man hurriedly pulled her and whispered: "Cousin, people's hearts are sinister. Who knows who they are."
After hearing what her cousin said, the girl glanced at Qiao Mingjin and others and frowned. She didn't look like a bad person.
Qiao Mingjin saw the two of them muttering and found it funny. Although she couldn't hear what the two of them said, she could still see that they were somewhat wary.
Qiao Mingjin didn't want Mingqi to get close to the two of them, and she could vaguely hear what the man said. She only heard Mingqi snort at the young man: "You have a villain's heart! You are the bad guys!"
As soon as the girl heard that what they were saying was heard by others, she lowered her head in disbelief.
The young man turned around and glared at Ming Qi angrily.
Does this girl have dog ears? Why did she hear him even when he spoke so quietly?
He was a little embarrassed, but his eyes were still widened as he looked at Ming Qi.
These two people were like fighting cocks. Everyone felt a little funny when they looked at them.
Mingjue scolded Mingqi and then said to the girl: "Girl, don't worry, we are not bad people and we don't mean any harm. My sister invites you to go with us, just to compensate your cousin for the lantern. This is my sister and niece
, these are my younger brothers and sisters, our surname is Qiao."
After hearing what Ming Jue said, the young man looked at Ming Jue and said, "Your surname is Qiao? Why haven't I seen you before?"
"There are so many people named Qiao in Yizhou, don't you know every one of them?"
Ming Qi looked for an opportunity to yell at him.
When Ming Qi said this, the young man replied loudly: "I know a lot of people! Who knows where you, a dead girl, came from!"
Before Ming Qi could shout with him, the girl turned around and shouted at the young man.
Upon seeing this, Mingjue said: "Your cousin is right, he has really never touched us before. We have just returned to Yizhou not long ago, so it is normal for the young master not to recognize us."
After hearing this, the young man looked Ming Jue up and down, then suddenly said oh, pointed at Ming Jue and said: "You, you are not the eldest member of the Qiao family, are you? Are you the eldest member of the direct branch of the Qiao family who just came back from abroad?
"
Mingjue was a little surprised when he heard this, glanced at him, and nodded to him.
It seems that many people in Yizhou City know the news about their family's return.
After the identity was made clear, both parties gained more trust.
They exchanged names with each other. Only then did Qiao Mingjin and others learn that the boy turned out to be the youngest son of the Zhou family in Yizhou City, whose name was Zhou Shanxian.
And that girl is his cousin, Zhao Ling, who lives in the capital. This time she came back with her mother to visit her sick grandmother.
When Qiao Mingjin saw Zhao Ling, she had an extraordinary conversation and was well-educated, so she had a good impression of her. And her cousin Zhou Shanxian was not a bad person, but he was a bit lively and was still young, so he was loved by his family.
It’s just some of the shortcomings of wealth that all the spoiled young men from rich families have.
The two parties introduced themselves to each other, and then they called out to each other, and they went together to enjoy the lanterns and guess lantern riddles.
Qiao Mingjin laughed secretly when she saw Mingjue secretly looking at Zhao Ling from time to time while walking. This silly brother has finally figured it out. In the past, he didn't have the chance to see any girls when he was living in Yunjia Village. Now it was rare to see one, so he stirred up a stir.
Fanhu water.
This time, while walking and peeking at other people, I almost bumped into someone else's stall without even realizing it.
Mingyu was pulled behind by Qiao Mingjin. Naturally, he saw Mingjue's abnormal behavior and secretly laughed with Qiao Mingjin from behind.
But Ming Qi was only busy bickering with Zhou Shanxian over the lanterns in the front, so how could he know this?
Qiao Mingjin looked at Zhao Ling fighting with Ming Jue to guess lantern riddles all the way, and she could see that he was well-educated, knowledgeable, generous-tempered, and not shy at all. He held Wan'er's hand all the way and was very gentle and considerate, and he also talked to Wan'er very politely.
Be patient and always bend down slightly to listen to the little thing.
Qiao Mingjin saw this and became more and more fond of Zhao Ling. She didn't know if they were engaged or not.
If she is a girl from the Zhou family, it is somewhat possible to marry Ming Jue, but her mother has already married away from the Zhou family to the capital. Although this girl did not say what her family is like, she can guess that she, Zhao Ling, must be a girl from an official family.
.
Mingjue is just a young scholar at the moment. Even if the girl is not engaged yet, I am afraid her family will not look down on her.
Qiao Mingjin looked at the back of his younger brother in front of him and sighed. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly votes. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
