Chapter 144: Ruthless
No matter how stupid Lin Yuan and Yu Guiwan were, they could see some tricks.
The Xie family seemed to have something to do with the Lin family. Thinking of the frivolous words Fu Nianzhen said, Lin Yuan's face turned dark.
Yu Guiwan was also very embarrassed and didn't know how to react for a while.
The Huo family knew the reason, but did not pick it.
"The tastes of Lantern Festival made by different families are somewhat different. The second wife of the Xie family is a careful person." Huo Qingyue interrupted with a smile, "I'll try the taste of the Xie family Lantern Festival first."
She was so smart that she didn't mention the unlucky guy Xie Zhen at all.
"This is called eating other people's things and saving your own things." Hu also laughed.
Wen Xin gave Lin Qingqian two Lantern Festivals, and Lin Qingqian finished eating with a smile.
Huo Jiucen glanced sideways and saw that she was served from the Huo family's Lantern Festival Basin, and her heart suddenly felt as sweet as honey.
He was relieved. Lin Qingqian not only disliked Xie Zhen, but also because of Xie Zhen, she had no idea about anyone in the Xie family.
"We'll go down to see the lanterns later." A little girl from the Huo family suggested with a smile.
"Only you little girls are very energetic, I dare not go down." Qin Shi shook her head.
"Miss Lin, let's go to see the riddles of the lantern together later?" The little girl turned around and looked at Lin Qingqian and asked.
Lin Qingqian also wanted to see what the ancient lamp exhibition looked like, so she agreed with a smile.
An Zelin and his children also wanted to keep up, but Mrs. Huo stopped the children. There were too many people at the lantern festival every year, and there were always slaves or parents who couldn't bear to see the children and the children were photographed and taken away by the flower boy.
When Aunt Lan and Yu Guiwan heard this, they hurriedly drank their two children.
Lin Qingqian was protected by the girl in time, and Lin Yuan and Lin Jingxing were not relieved. Lin Yuan's health had just improved and his physical strength would definitely not keep up, so Lin Jingxing recommended himself and was willing to protect Lin Qingqian.
The male member of the Lin family traveled, and the Huo family followed suit, allowing Huo Jiucen and Lao Qi and Lao Ba to follow him.
Lao Qi and Lao Ba are young masters born in illegitimate. They have a gentle temper and do not steal the limelight. Huo Jiucen is willing to bring them with them.
The group went out and merged into the crowd. When they walked to the teahouse, the Xie family saw Lin Qingqian at a glance.
"Miss Lin, why not enjoy the lanterns together?" Xie Zhen was upstairs, holding a cup of tea in his hand, with a wicked smile in his eyes, looking down at the bottom casually, and greeting loudly.
Lin Qingqian looked up and glanced at him coldly, and his steps didn't stop.
The rest of the Xie family heard Xie Zhen's shout and saw Lin Qingqian's figure. They were all so angry that they were all so angry.
Especially the second wife, she wanted to come forward and slap Xie Zhen directly. There were so many people on the street, and Xie Zhen was a "celebrity". He shouted at Lin Qingqian in the street, "How could the little girl be so thick-skinned?"
Xie Zhen's move was really frivolous and even more contemptuous of Lin Qingqian.
Seeing this, General Xie was so angry that he grabbed the cup on the table and pointed it at Xie Zhen and threw it over.
The window upstairs was opened, and Xie Zhen turned over and jumped down from the window.
"ah?"
"ah?"
A burst of exclamation came downstairs.
"I'll follow you and take a look." Xie Yi was worried that Xie Zhen would provoke Lin Qingqian again, so he angered Lin Qingqian, and then jumped out of the window.
There were indeed many people on the street, and Lin Qingqian was willing to avoid Xie Zhen, so she accelerated her pace with the flow of people.
Wenxin was afraid that the two of them would be dispersed, so she simply grabbed her hand directly.
Several girls from the Huo family followed her and greeted Huo Jiuchen and the others behind her from time to time.
Even though everyone was careful, because they were on the busiest streets in Pingyang City, after walking for a while, everyone was still dispersed by the team playing dragons and lions.
"What should I do, girl?" Wen Xin asked in a low voice.
"Buy a mask and put it on." Lin Qingqian was happy to see the mask selling in front of him and squeezed over, "The madman who saved me will come here."
"The second young master and the others?"
"It's okay, there are too many people. I guess everyone will be squeezed apart. We'll be back again later." Lin Qingqian was not worried at all. "They can't find us, so they will definitely go back to Zuifeng Tower."
Wen Xin thought about it and felt that what she said made sense and was not anxious.
The master and servant stood on the mask stall, looking at more than a dozen types of masks, and didn't know which one to choose for a while.
"This is good." He reached out with one hand, picked a butterfly from the shelf and handed it to Lin Qingqian.
Lin Qingqian looked up and saw Zhao Jingyun's smiling face approaching her.
Wen Xin quickly bowed his knees and saluted him.
"Isn't it very good?" Zhao Jingyun reached out to put on a mask for her, looked at her again and again, and could not hide the pride in her eyes.
"Why don't you bring people to follow you?" Lin Qingqian glanced at him and found that he was just showing up alone.
"It's in the way." Zhao Jingyun was like a child asking for candy, "You can choose one for me too."
Lin Qingqian saw that he was wearing a black ink robe and picked left and right from the shelves. Finally, he chose a mask in the shape of an eagle wing and handed over the same black.
"Put it on." A demonic face came over.
This person is the best at climbing along the pole, Lin Qingqian is annoyed!
"I'll wear it for you, and you should wear it for me too. This is called "Mr. Singing and Married" Zhao Jingyun has a lot of misunderstandings.
"Young Master, Madam, you have a good relationship." Seeing that the two guests in front of him were dressed in silk, they knew that they were not short of money, so they would definitely be generous when they took action, and couldn't help but come forward to persuade him.
Lin Qingqian was so entangled by Zhao Jingyun that she had no choice but to reach out to put a mask on him.
Then, he picked a mask in the shape of a little bee for Wen Xin.
"How much money?" Lin Qingqian asked, and Wen Xin took out her wallet to prepare to check out.
Zhao Jingyun threw a piece of silver directly over, "He is a talking person, so there is no need to look for him."
The vendor took the silver and saw that it turned out to be a silver croaker, which was only 2 taels, and his three masks were only more than 20 cents. This time he made a lot of money.
"Are you so generous on weekdays?" Lin Qingqian asked after leaving the stall.
"I never bring money on my body." Zhao Jingyun showed off, he was still foresighted. He had never eaten pork, had he seen pigs run? A man took his wife to the streets and he must buy...
He is happy to spend money on his wife and proud to him.
"One mask costs only eight or nine cents, and three masks cost less than thirty cents. You can do it, two taels of silver. Do you think the silver is blowing from the strong wind?" Lin Qingqian deliberately glared at him.
Wen Xin was frightened when she heard it behind her. My girl, you haven’t even had a single word yet. How can you keep the prince’s wallet? What if the prince gets angry?
"Or why should we go back and get the money back?" Zhao Jingyun's brain reel was different. In his opinion, Lin Qingqian's behavior was because Lin Qingqian liked him, so he regarded his purse as his own.
The wife takes care of the money, there is nothing wrong with it.
"You're really going back." Lin Qingqian grabbed him, "Is it embarrassing to lose it?"
Zhao Jingyun burst into laughter.
Only then did Lin Qingqian realize that he was teasing himself and couldn't help laughing.
Pingyang City is worthy of being a rich place, with many people on the streets and many vendors. There are riddles in front of many shops. Zhao Jingyun and Lin Qingqian are having fun, and they squeeze in to answer the riddles when they see them. Unexpectedly, they won a lot of small gifts along the way.
Wen Xin held three lanterns and a bunch of small gifts in her hand, and she couldn't help but shake her head.
"See if we have spent money, we have made it back." Zhao Jingyun proudly showed off with his purse.
Lin Qingqian ignored him and held some snacks in her hand, and had a lot of fun. Sometimes, she was happy and stuffed one or two into Wen Xin's mouth behind her.
Zhao Jingyun was so jealous that he was clamoring for Lin Qingqian to feed him.
Usually, couples of men and women dare not be so bold on the streets. But today is different. During the Lantern Festival, many young couples came out, and no one joked.
Others can only envy Lin Qingqian and Zhao Jingyun's actions, and did not cause any trouble at all.
Along the way, the relationship between the two became much closer.
Seeing this, Mu Qing and others hiding in the crowd gave Lin Qingqian a thumbs up from afar.
The princess was mighty and had eaten the prince tightly before she even entered the palace.
"Come on, let's put the lanterns into the river." Zhao Jingyun was very familiar with the terrain of Pingyang City and soon brought her to the riverside.
There are many young men and women on the banks of the river, and each of them holds lanterns.
"It is said that men and women put the lanterns into the river together and will be loved for the rest of their lives." Zhao Jingyun saw her face showing a puzzled look and explained with a smile. Haha, he is also a wife this year.
A lotus lantern was gently pushed into the river by two people, and slowly flowed away along the cool river water. The lights by the river were reflected in the river water, and with the lotus lanterns in the river, the river surface formed mottled highlights, which were very beautiful.
Lin Qingqian's heart suddenly became clear. She came to ancient times and she will be a person from this era in the future.
In the future, she will be well integrated into her own life.
The river was cool, and Zhao Jingyun couldn't bear to let her get cold, so he took her hand to walk towards the road.
Suddenly, his face turned cold and he reached out to wrap his hand around Lin Qingqian's waist.
Lin Qingqian was about to question him why Meng Lang suddenly became angry.
"Don't worry about your lady, run to crowded places." Zhao Jingyun spoke first, and then Lin Qingqian saw a masked man in black coming towards her with a sword.
Lin Qingqian was so scared that she almost screamed.
"Miss." Wen Xin didn't care about what she had in her hand and hurriedly went up to him.
At this moment, several more people wearing smoky and green clothes rushed over from the crowd.
"Take the person away." Zhao Jingyun spoke.
One of the secret guards agreed, grabbed Wen Xin's wrist and took the person out of the fight circle.
The sneak attackers seemed to be coming towards Lin Qingqian. They tried their best to get to Lin Qingqian, and the sword in their hands also moved towards Lin Qingqian's vitals.
Zhao Jingyun's eyes were deep, and he was extremely angry at this time.
If he doesn't go out today, Lin Qingqian...
The consequences were simply unimaginable. As long as Zhao Jingyun thought that these people were coming for Lin Qingqian's life, his blood boiled, and the Wu Li in his eyes became deeper and deeper, "If you leave a living mouth, you can kill the rest without mercy."
