Chapter 92: Lantern Appreciation

Chapter 92 Lantern Appreciation

Author: An Zhizhi

Chapter 92 Lantern Appreciation

There are animal-shaped lamps such as rabbit lanterns, tiger lanterns, and lion lanterns, as well as various flower-shaped lamps.

Feng Yu didn't like to join in the fun, so she held a peony lantern and watched the street sideshow. The stage was crowded and the noise was overwhelming. Qiuxiang and Chunlu pushed through the crowd and sent Feng Yu to the first row. Feng Yu could watch.

The vaudeville troupe consists of girls, children, and old people who are proficient in all kinds of martial arts. It is very lively.

After watching the sideshow and then watching the shadow puppet show, Fengyu rewarded everyone along the way. She rewarded whatever she saw, the living God of Wealth. Others used copper plates as rewards, but she always used broken silver.

While enjoying and eating along the way, Qiuxiang and Chunlu bought all the street snacks. Fengyu preferred water chestnut cakes and dried fruits, which were basically sweet.

After eating and drinking, watch people guess lantern riddles.

Feng Yu doesn't like guessing lantern riddles because she doesn't like reading. The riddles are based on poems and she can't guess them at all, but she likes to watch others guess lantern riddles.

Coincidentally, it was Fang Lingjun and Lin Yuyan who were solving lantern riddles.

Each person has six lanterns, one stick of incense determines the winner, and the one who solves the most riddles wins.

Fang Lingjun has solved four riddles, and Lin Yuyan has solved five riddles. Before the time for burning incense, Fang Lingjun led Princess Xuelan to think hard, but she could not solve the next two riddles.

Lin Yuyan looked at her arrogantly, quite disdainfully. Princess Xuelan grew up in the countryside and had limited literary skills. She could not help Fang Lingjun. Feng Yu glanced at the lantern.

Less than sixty, more than eighty.

There are eighteen on the left, eighteen on the right, two and four are eight, and one and eight are eight.

Before Feng Yu could figure out the answer, a stick of incense arrived, and the trio of poor students failed to solve the riddle. Fang Lingjun lost, and Lin Yuyan mocked and said, "Don't guess riddles with others if you don't have a literary mind. It would be embarrassing to lose."

"What's so great about losing a lantern riddle once? You are so capable that you solved all the lantern riddles in the whole street." Fang Lingjun said with her hands on her hips, "No one can solve the lantern riddles my brother left two years ago. You go and solve it."

.”

Fang Chuning left a lantern riddle two years ago, but it is not a word riddle. No one can solve it yet. It has become the signature of this lantern riddle street, and people try to solve it every year.

Lin Yuyan pursed her lips and refused to argue with Fang Lingjun. When Xuelan saw Feng Yu, she waved her hand excitedly, "Ayu, you're here too."

When Fang Lingjun saw Feng Yu coming, she ran to her side like the wind, "You're here, we'll go put out the lanterns later."

"Okay!" Feng Yu was dressed in red and holding a peony lantern. Her hairpins and steps made her look as gorgeous as a peach and plum. The colorful lanterns on the street were not even half as colorful as hers.

Lin Yuyan could not hide the hatred in her eyes. She had not seen Feng Yu since the riding and shooting banquet. When she was in Zhuangzi, she dreamed of having Feng Yu skinned. After returning to the city, she wanted to cause trouble for Feng Yu, but she was killed.

During the lockdown, Lin Yuyan was a star in the crowd. Except for the princess and the granddaughters from Lin Ge's hometown, she was the most delicate girl among her peers. Everyone supported her and fawned over her. In previous years, during the Lantern Festival, she was surrounded by a group of people.

My dear daughter, I declined all her invitations this year. Neither Wu Changhuan nor Zhang Jingmiao wanted to play with her.

For the first time, she experienced the warmth and coldness of human relationships. After being tricked by Feng Yu at the riding and shooting banquet, it was almost impossible to find a good marriage, let alone marry Xie Xun. Who would want a ruthless daughter-in-law, who has always been fawning?

Her family, Li Pengfei, was unwilling to hire her as their daughter-in-law.

Her whole life has been ruined by Feng Yu, and the recent rumors have made her even more angry. Lin Yuyan dreams of Feng Yu repaying her pain.

But she was also afraid of Lin Sheng's threat and didn't dare to do anything to Feng Yu!

Feng Yu greeted Lin Yuyan with a bright smile, "Miss Lin looks good. She must be doing well after coming back from Zhuangzi so soon."

"Thanks to you, I'm very well. I didn't rest in Zhuangzi for a few years. Are you disappointed?" Lin Yuyan spread her hands unscrupulously, "What can you do?"

Feng Yu chuckled lightly, without any hint of malice, "Then I wish you a bright future."

Lin Yuyan's expression changed. How could she still have such a bright future after the riding and shooting banquet? Feng Yu was just killing someone and killing her heart. Lin Yuyan was so angry that she walked away.

"Unlucky!" Fang Lingjun said unhappily, "I met her when I came out to enjoy the lanterns."

"We are all in Beijing, and there will always be times when we meet."

After Feng Yu met Fang Lingjun and Xuelan, she didn't play with them. Feng Yu was a slow-tempered person who liked to stop and go, while Fang Lingjun had a fiery temper and wanted to join in any fun. Feng Yu asked them to go to the front to play first and wait later.

We will meet each other if we are destined to do so. The lantern festival is so big, we can always meet it.

Princess Xuelan originally wanted to accompany Feng Yu, but was dragged by Fang Lingjun to play. Feng Yu walked around slowly, and suddenly felt a burning gaze. She saw Xie Xun standing on the stargazing tower, standing quietly with his hands behind his hands, watching.

she.

Fengyu stood by the bridge, with the colorful lake and surging water. The moonlight and the lanterns reflected each other's gentle halo, falling on the girl's face as white as snow. She was holding a peony lantern, looking like a fairy in the snowy sky.

The two of them looked at each other lightly across the sky full of lanterns and snowflakes. Xie Xun put his hands on the railing of the Star Observation Tower, with a charming smile in his eyes, "Third Miss, would you like to come up and enjoy the lanterns?"

The Star Observation Tower has eleven floors. It stands in the city and looks more like an observation tower. It cannot be climbed by ordinary people. As soon as Xie Xun reached the third floor, he saw Feng Yu. He was already standing by the railing watching her, Fang Lingjun, Princess Xuelan and others.

They had fun for a while. Standing high and seeing far away, you could naturally see them watching and guessing lantern riddles, playing around, and saying goodbye at the bridge.

The Star Observation Tower is not open on weekdays. Feng Yu has never climbed to the top. It is a rare opportunity to climb up, so she will not miss it. And tonight's Star Observation Tower is obviously a lantern tower, with various lanterns and lanterns hanging outside the building.

The objects of gold and jade produce a crisp sound when the wind blows, which is very pleasant to the ear. Many people are looking at the lantern tower from a distance.

Qiuxiang and Chunlu wanted to follow her upstairs, but Nuanyang said with a smile, "Sisters, the passage to the Star Observation Tower is narrow and not suitable for so many people."

"Then who will take care of my girl?" Qiuxiang stretched her neck and looked up.

Nuanyang smiled and said, "My master is here."

Qiuxiang and Chunlu looked at each other, full of questions, "Does your master serve my girl?" Feiying saw this and invited them to go to the third floor to see the lights. Qiuxiang and Chunlu saw that the little marquis's guards were all downstairs, which was not good.

Follow up.

The passage to the Star Observation Tower is a circular passage all the way up. Oil lamps are lit on both sides of the stairs, and the light is dim. Feng Yu regretted halfway up the stairs. Why did she climb the stairs?

Xie Xun stood at a high place, folded his arms and chuckled, "Are you tired?"

She was panting, and her cheeks were red from exhaustion. She always felt that Xie Xun's eyes had evil intentions, as if the next sentence would say, "Give me ten thousand stones of food, and I can carry you up."

Feng Yu thought of her granary and said duplicitously, "I'm not tired."
