Chapter 572: Have you learned to play dumb riddles too?
Chapter 572: Have you also learned how to play riddles?
The fifteenth day of the first lunar month is the Lantern Festival.
Early in the morning, Chai Yan and Yuan went to say goodbye to Gao Heng. Today they will officially move to Huguangju.
Although the title deed of the house has not yet been obtained, Chai Yan is not in a hurry because the seller has already collected the money and welcomes Chai Yan to move in at any time. The house that was so difficult to sell was finally sold after more than two years.
For him, it also settled a worry.
To put it another way, the seller is still worried about Chai Yan changing his mind and wishes he could move in as soon as possible!
In the main hall, Chai Yan clasped his fists and said to Gao Heng and his wife: "Uncle Gao, Mrs. Gao, I have disturbed you these days!"
Gao Heng hurriedly clasped his fists and replied: "Master Mu, please stop saying that. Come and sit here often when you have time."
"Yes, come here often..." Mrs. Gao smiled with a smile on her face.
Although Mrs. Gao said she was so enthusiastic on the outside, in fact she was extremely reluctant in her heart. While she didn't mean what she said, she was thinking to herself: Why are you here? If you leave, don't come back again!
Through this period of contact, Gao Heng's views on Chai Yan and Yuan Yuan have already changed. Although Mrs. Gao is better than before, she is still worried. Who said Yuan Yuan's performance that day was so shocking?
It’s unforgettable!
Chai Yan smiled and nodded, clasped his fists again to thank Gao Heng and his wife, and prepared to leave with Yuan Yuan.
At this moment, Gao Yan's call came from outside the hall: "Sister, don't leave, sister..."
Mrs. Gao was startled and asked the servant next to her: "What's going on? Why did Yan'er run out?"
"Go and take a look..." Gao Heng turned around and ordered his subordinates to go out and see what was going on.
But before the servants could walk out of the hall, Gao Yan ran into the hall.
As soon as Gao Yan saw Yuan Yuan, he ran to her side, took Yuan Yuan's forearm and said coquettishly: "Sister, please don't leave, okay? If you leave, no one will play hide and seek with Yan'er...
..."
During these days, Gao Yan would come to play hide-and-seek with Yuan whenever he had the chance. Yuan usually wouldn't refuse, and sometimes he would play for an hour or two at a time. Now Gao Yan couldn't bear to leave this hide-and-seek player.
My sister is gone.
Yuan Yuan smiled and touched Gao Yan's head, and said gently: "Yan'er, be good, sister promises you, I will come and play hide and seek with you whenever I have time, okay?"
Gao Yan pursed his lips and said nothing, looking unhappy, but in the end he nodded.
Mrs. Gao stepped forward, pulled Gao Yan back behind her husband, and scolded her in a low voice.
"Farewell, Uncle Gao!"
With that said, Chai Yan nodded to Yuan: "Madam, let's go..."
"Yes." Yuan Yuan agreed softly and followed Chai Yan towards the gate, while Gao Heng saw him off at one side.
When Gao Yan saw the owl walking away, he wanted to chase it. Mrs. Gao hurriedly called the servant girl and stopped her son. Gao Yan suddenly burst into tears.
Gao Heng turned around and said angrily: "It's such a big holiday, why are you crying? Go back to the house!"
Yuan Yuan had no choice but to stop and turn around, admonishing: "Yan'er, if you keep crying and making trouble, my sister won't play hide-and-seek with you anymore!"
These words were like a panacea, and Gao Yan's crying disappeared as soon as he said them.
Mrs. Gao looked at her son and felt secretly unhappy, but she couldn't say anything.
Gao Heng sent the two of them to the gate of Gaozhai. There was a sedan waiting outside the door, and it was still the same two sedan bearers from last time.
After the owl entered the sedan chair and sat firmly, the bearer carefully lifted up the sedan chair and walked forward.
Chai Yan nodded towards Gao Heng from a distance and followed the sedan slowly away.
Gao Heng stood outside the door and was watching Chai Yan's retreating figure, when the third uncle of the concierge came over.
"Master, a matchmaker has come and wants to meet you..." Third Uncle said in a low voice.
"Matchmaker?" Gao Heng was stunned for a moment, wondering in his heart, how could anyone in the city like this stupid son of his own take the initiative to find a matchmaker?
Thinking about it, Yan'er is now quite old, so it's really time for him to get a wife.
Gao Heng nodded: "Let's go meet the matchmaker!"
After saying that, the third uncle followed Gao Heng into the house.
--------------------------
When the sedan arrived near West Street, Chai Yan saw that many places on West Street were decorated with lights, so he turned to Yuan in the sedan and said, "Look, madam, it must be very lively here tonight."
The bearer in front heard this and answered: "Sir, madam, our Yaozhou West Street is the busiest place every Lantern Festival. There are all kinds of delicious food and fun. You two can't miss it!"
Yuan slowly opened the curtains and looked at the street, then whispered: "It's a pity that we don't have time..."
Chai Yan curled his lips and said immediately: "Who said we don't have time? Madam, we will definitely come tonight!"
"But..." Yuanyuan looked at Chai Yan doubtfully. She couldn't ask the next words in front of the bearer.
Chai Yan said with a smile: "Madam, 'Moon Appreciation' is something we have to do in the middle of the night. Before 'Moon Appreciation', we can still go shopping on the street!"
Of course, this moon appreciation is not really a moon appreciation.
Yuanyuan understood what he heard, but still hesitated before asking: "Then...is it too late?"
The question "Is it too late?" naturally does not mean whether it is too late to admire the moon.
Hearing Yu Yuan speak like this, Chai Yan couldn't help but laugh: "Hahahaha... It's in time, it's definitely in time..."
After laughing, Chai Yan's face suddenly came into the sedan window and whispered: "Madam, have you also learned to play riddles?"
"Go, don't block me!" Yuanyuan used one move and one finger to poke Chai Yan's big face out.
Chai Yan rubbed his forehead and pretended to complain: "Madam, could you please be gentle and poke a hole? It would be so ugly!"
"You deserve to poke holes!" Yuanyuan lowered the curtain before finishing speaking, turned around and closed the car window on the other side.
The two bearers were also amused, talking and laughing while admiring the love between the couple.
Suddenly, Chai Yan saw a roadside stall with various masks hung on it, all of which were worn during the Lantern Festival and used in the streets.
"Wait a minute, you two, I'm going to buy something."
With a thought in his mind, Chai Yan stopped the sedan bearer, left the sedan and walked quickly towards the mask stall.
Soon, Yuan opened the curtain of the sedan window to see Chai Yan.
I saw Chai Yan pointing to the stall and chatting with the stall owner for a few words, then he immediately took out the money to pay the bill, and then returned to the sedan with the two masks.
Yuan Yuan asked curiously: "Why did you buy the mask?"
Chai Yan put a female doll mask in front of his face with a smile, and a pair of eyes behind the two eye holes began to blink, and then he raised his voice and said: "Madam, do I look good?"
Yuan Yuan couldn't hold it in and burst out laughing.
Then, Yuyuan reached out and took away the female doll mask, suppressing a smile and said: "This is mine!"
