On the day of the Lantern Festival, Yuxi had just had lunch and found Han Jianye and urged her to go out early.

Han Jianye couldn't help but smile and said: "You're too anxious, it's only noon, and there are still several hours before the evening! ”

Yuxi pulled Han Jianye's sleeve and said, "Second brother, I'm also idle at home, I want to go to Shangyuan Street to see Fang's mother first, and send her something by the way." ”

Han Jianye looked at Yuxi and looked at her with blank eyes, as if you didn't promise me to cry to you, where should there be: "It only takes more than an hour from Shangyuan Street to Huadeng City River, and it's too early to go." ”

Yuxi naturally calculated the time: "After reading Fang's mother, I want to go to the bookstore to buy two books." ”

Han Jianming didn't understand: "What book do you want to buy, sue me, I'll buy it for you." ”

Yuxi shook his head and said, "Second brother, you have to go up the mountain tomorrow, it is estimated that you will have to come back next time during the Dragon Boat Festival." Second brother, it's okay today, and you won't delay anything if you go out early. Second brother, you can promise me!"

Han Jianye was the most reluctant to retreat from coquettishness and tears, and immediately defeated: "Okay, I'll go and talk to my eldest brother." ”

Han Jianming was about to buy a few books, so he nodded and said, "Yes." Let Jianye send you to Shangyuan Street, and I will wait for you at the bookstore. It just so happened that he knew that there was a bookstore that would not close even if it was the Lantern Festival.

Fang's mother was startled when she saw Yuxi and Han Jianye, and hurriedly saluted the two of them, and then invited everyone into the house.

Yuxi looked at this store and it was completely different from the first time she did. A shed was built in front, and six small tables and chairs were placed in the pavement, all of which were clean and free of a trace of dust.

Yuxi smiled and said, "Second brother, I'll go to the backyard to take a look." The two maids, Hongshan and Mo Ju, followed behind with two packages.

The small courtyard has also changed a lot, with sheds on the left and right, piles of firewood on the left, and a stove on the right, on which there are more than a dozen steamers.

Yuxi did not enter the kitchen, but entered Fang's mother's bedroom. Looking at the simple layout in the room, Yuxi's eyes were astringent: "Mom, I'm sorry for you." "A few dozen taels of silver a month is not so easy to earn.

Fang's mother smiled: "It's not hard, I have something to do every day, I feel full of energy!" Here I have to get up early every day to chop stuffed buns, and it is definitely harder to be busy than in the house. It's just that she is free to do things here, and she doesn't worry that doing something wrong will implicate the girl, and when she thinks that she is making money for the girl, she feels that it makes sense to do this.

Yuxi pondered, when she sold the ointment prescription and purchased the next property, she would not let Fang's mother do such a hard thing anymore.

Mother Fang called Mrs. An in and said, "Girl, this is Mrs. An." She does the heavy work of chopping wood and carrying water in the shop, and she also sells steamed buns every morning. "Fang's mother is only responsible for making steamed buns and other things, and selling steamed buns outside to greet guests are all things that Mrs. An is doing. An Pozi is five big and three thick, and it is no problem for the physique to knock down two men. Of course, this is also the reason why Xiang Yang took a fancy to her in the first place.

Yuxi rewarded An Pozi with a red envelope, and also raised An Pozi's monthly money from 600 Wen to one or two silver.

Mrs. An knelt on the ground and said gratefully, "Thank you, girl, for your grace." With the money, she is better able to inquire about her family.

Yuxi didn't stay long in the bun shop, and left in less than two quarters of an hour.

An errand officer surnamed Huang who happened to go to this street saw a carriage parked in front of the bun shop, and the vermilion lacquer carriage could only be used by the powerful people. He hurriedly asked the boss next to him: "What is the origin of this bun shop, there will be a nobleman?"

The boss said with a smile: "The proprietress of this bun shop is not small, I heard that she used to be an errand in the Guogong Mansion. No one dares to mess with this street. ”

As he was talking, the official surnamed Huang saw a young man in a brocade dress come out of it, followed by a female doll like a New Year's painting.

Yuxi followed Han Jianye to a bookstore on Shangyuan Street. As soon as I entered the bookstore, I saw Yun Qing and Jiang Hongfu coming out of it.

Yun Qing saw the white and tender Yuxi at a glance, and he wanted to step forward and pinch it. Not only did he think so, he did.

Yuxi saw Yunqing pinching her face, and the whole person was stupid. The killer demon king in her previous life actually pinched her face, what could be more terrifying than this!

Han Jianye reacted quickly, walked over and patted Yunqing's hand, then pulled Yuxi to look left and right, and said, "I'm very clever at home, why am I stupid as soon as I go out?"

Yuxi reacted, shuddered, and hurriedly hugged Han Jianye. Can you not be afraid? It is said that there are tens of thousands of people who died in Yunqing's hands, so a pair of blood-stained hands actually pinched her face, and Yuxi shuddered again when she thought of this.

Seeing that Yun Qing touched his face, he said to Jiang Hongfu, "Cousin, am I so scary?"

Jiang Hongfu said helplessly: "Aren't you scary like this?"

Yunqing felt that Yuxi's courage was too small, and he was scared like this when he pinched his face, and he was out of luck. But in the end, he scared people, and he still needs to apologize. Yun Qing untied the Liuyun Baifu jade pendant on his waist, handed it to Han Jianming, and said, "It's my fault this time, and I won't do it again next time." This is my apology to my cousin. He thought Yuxi was very cute and wanted to pinch it, but he really didn't expect to scare people.

Han Jianye didn't take the jade pendant, and said very dissatisfiedly: "Don't make such a joke next time." No matter how arrogant he is, he also knows that the girl's face is not something that can be pinched casually, fortunately Yuxi is young, otherwise Qing's reputation will be ruined by Yunqing.

Jiang Hongfu looked at Han Jianye's expression and immediately explained: "Cousin Ming, don't get me wrong, my cousin has always regretted that my aunt didn't give her a sister! ”

Jiang Hongfu's words made Yuxi embarrassed. Unexpectedly, the murderer likes the white and chubby little girl very much, which makes her feel disillusioned.

Han Jianye said: "I hope there will be no next time." ”

Yun Qing said curtly: "Not again." ”

After apologizing, the two brothers left. After the others left, Han Jianye patted Yuxi's head and scolded with a smile: "Why is it so useless?

Yuxi muttered, "He's just terrible!" She didn't faint in fright, she was already very powerful, okay.

While the two were talking, Han Jianming walked out of it.

Han Jianming knew about the episode he had just discovered, and said with a smile: "The Yun family is all big men, and there are no girls, so their families are relatively rare girls." "Yunqing's problem, Han Jianming knows. However, Han Jianming knew that Yunqing was a measured person, so he was not angry.

Yuxi asked strangely, "Isn't Jiang Hongfu's biological mother the girl of the Yun family?"

Han Jianming shook his head with a smile and said, "Jiang Hongfu's biological mother is not General Yun's biological daughter, she is an adopted daughter, but General Yun treats her as her own daughter." ”

Yuxi didn't expect such a thing.

Han Jianye was not very interested in these things, and said: "Fourth sister, don't you want to buy books? There are many types of books here, you can choose them yourself." ”

Yuxi went to pick up the book as he said. After picking for a long time, she didn't find the medical book she wanted. In such a large bookstore, there are no medical books.

Han Jianming saw Yuxi's disappointed face, and asked with a smile, "What other books do you want?"

Yuxi shook his head and said, "It's nothing." "There are some things she can tell her second brother, but she can't tell her eldest brother. Don't look at the second brother's usual swagger, but he is very righteous, as long as he agrees, he will never tell others.

Han Jianming saw that Yuxi didn't say anything, nor did he force it, but just smiled and said: "Other bookstores in the capital are closed at this time, but this bookstore is not closed all year round." If you haven't bought the book you like, I'll take you to Songyun Pavilion next time you have a holiday, and you should be able to buy the book you want. "Songyun Pavilion is the largest bookstore in the capital, and there are all kinds of books in it. It's just that it's the Lantern Festival now, and Songyun Pavilion is closing.

Yuxi smiled so much that his teeth were exposed: "Okay." ”

After dinner, it was already dark. When I got out of the restaurant, I saw that various lanterns had been hung on the street, which was very beautiful.

Han Jianming has participated several times and is familiar with this place, so he took a group of people to the place where the lanterns were sold. One of the features of the Lantern Festival is that as long as you guess the riddle on the lantern, you can take the lantern away without paying.

The group found a stall selling lanterns. There is also a limit to guessing riddles, and everyone can only guess twice, and if you guess wrong, you won't have a chance. Han Jianming guessed two riddles and guessed one correctly, as for Han Jianye, his family knew about his own family affairs, so he would be a spectator.

Yuxi wanted to give it a try. She looked earnestly at the tall lanterns, and swept the prettiest ones, for they were the hardest. Yuxi looked at it for a long time, pointed to a lantern painted with a little rabbit, and said, "This mystery is mysterious and mysterious. ”

The stall owner was impressed by Yuxi: "The little girl is so smart. After speaking, he took off the lantern and handed it to Yuxi.

This little rabbit lantern is actually not very fine, but Yuxi just likes it, after all, he used what he learned and only got it.
