The surroundings were very lively: there were loud gongs and drums on the stage, and laughter and laughter in the audience, but Yun Qiao could not hear clearly.
She wanted to think about the interesting things that happened during the past New Year celebrations.
She and her grandmother celebrated the New Year in her hometown and in Guangzhou, etc. It was very lively and interesting.
However, the brain seemed to have an opinion of its own, and it tried its best to turn towards Xi Lanting.
Thinking of her hometown, the shadow of the mulberry tree lingered, and she remembered Xi Lanting saying that she picked mulberries from the tree and ate them, like a wild monkey.
Thinking of Guangzhou, she recalled the last trip to Guangzhou. Xi Lanting escorted and protected them all the way, and was even suspected of killing the old man of the Xu family, just to solve Yun Qiao's worries.
When she thought of this, she felt deeply that she was hopeless: Is Uncle Qi something you can imagine?
Only Uncle Qi's mouth could turn Yun Qiao's delusional thoughts into ridicule, scolding her until she was furious.
But she is young after all.
I have met so many people over the years, many of them outstanding, such as Cheng Li, but no one has ever made Yun Qiao so worried, and she becomes worried even if she doesn't see him for a while.
"Alas." She sighed softly.
Wu Dan was doing somersaults on the stage with the rapid sound of gongs and drums, causing everyone to laugh and applaud, and the sound became louder and louder. Yun Qiao's sigh was submerged in it and disappeared.
No one noticed anything strange about her.
While watching the play, she and the Jiang brothers and sisters sat in the back, and only the three of them sat at the four-person table.
Compared with Yun Qiao's lust, the siblings' troubles are much more difficult.
They obviously had loving and harmonious parents, but overnight, their mother overturned the long-standing situation and the family was about to break up.
Miss Jiang's sorrow is apparent, but Young Master Jiang's suffering is in his heart.
Like Yun Qiao, the two of them couldn't get into the drama. They were both thinking about their own concerns, and the whole excitement had nothing to do with them.
Yun Qiao couldn't sit still any longer, so she stood up and wanted to leave.
Young Master Jiang came to his senses: "Where is aunt going?"
"I'm going back." Yun Qiao said, "I'm a little uncomfortable. The wind and cold haven't healed yet."
Young Master Jiang understood and nodded: "Auntie, go back early."
Yun Qiao smiled.
As soon as she stood up, she thought of something and sat down again. She took out two red envelopes from the pocket of her cloak and handed them to Young Master Jiang and Miss Jiang: "I'll give you two lucky red envelopes for the New Year."
Mr. Jiang: "..."
Yun Qiao couldn't help but put it in their hands, got up and left.
The brocade dress disappeared from sight like fire. Miss Jiang was holding a red envelope. This was her first time celebrating the New Year outside. Thinking of the excitement at home in the past, she couldn't help but feel sad.
She couldn't help crying.
At this time, Yun Qiao had already arrived at Xi Lanting's door.
It was also here last year that Xi Lanting caught an assassin who had sneaked into the theater troupe, killed him on the spot, and asked Yun Qiao to help him get the key.
The bright red blood stained his clothes, and the memory was profound.
But now there are only two red lanterns left at the gate, with broken rays trailing to the ground, dragging Yun Qiao's lonely figure very long, as if a gust of wind can blow it away.
She didn't knock on the door, nor did she leave, she just stood there silently, staring at the door in a daze.
Sometimes a girl's thoughts can't be explained by herself. Just like Yun Qiao, she doesn't know whether she is happy or sad about Xi Lanting, so she can't make up her mind either.
The night wind was biting, the frost and snow turned into ice, Yun Qiao's cloak was filled with cold wind, the bottom of his sleeves was cold, and his fingers were frozen stiff.
She turned to leave.
At this moment, Xi Lanting's courtyard door suddenly opened.
Xi Zun walked out and saw Yun Qiao, and seemed to be surprised: "Miss Yun Qiao?"
Yun Qiao: "..."
"Are you looking for Master Qi? Please come in quickly." Xi Zun said.
Xi Lanting returned to the courtyard early today. He saw wine laid out in the west room, which was a New Year's Eve dinner for four of his entourages. He asked them to eat and leave him alone.
Then, he went back to his room and turned off the lights.
