After I had a false relationship with the emperor, he

Chapter 19

"Mother-in-law, it's the first time my young master has come out. He doesn't understand these things. We still have to go over there to watch the lanterns. Let's talk about it when we come back."

Sang Ning dragged Shu Yu behind her, stood in front of him, and said to the old woman.

Seeing her protective posture, the old woman seemed to soften her weathered and wrinkled face.

"Although the girl and the young master have tribulations and hardships, but fortunately, they are blessed with profound blessings, so they will definitely get this good fate."

The old lady said something wrong in answering the question, and Sang Ning couldn't help being taken aback.

This mother-in-law seems to be a little bit distracted.

She quietly mobilized a little spiritual power, and just when it was about to land on her, Shu Yu next to her suddenly held her hand, and the spiritual power gathered at her fingertips suddenly dissipated.

Then, he naturally let go of her hand.

She frowned and looked at Shu Yu, but he didn't reply her with a single word.

"Grandma, what word puzzles do you have at home? Let me guess."

"Sir, please!"

As the old woman said, she bowed her waist and invited them to a small shop that was deserted by people.

Shu Yu had already followed the old woman in, Sang Ning looked at him, sighed deeply, and had to follow quickly.

Since he insisted on guessing, he guessed it, since he came out to play anyway.

Sang Ning was a step behind, following behind the old lady and Shu Yu, she looked at this obviously dilapidated small shop without any trace.

The decoration of the small shop is simple and elegant, but the obsolescence of the objects can be seen with the naked eye. It seems that they are really things passed down from generation to generation as the mother-in-law said.

There are a lot of lanterns displayed in the small shop, and the workmanship is barely satisfactory.

Compared with the lanterns watched by the crowd just now, it is obviously much inferior.

No wonder it's deserted here.

With the gorgeous and exquisite contrast on the opposite side, this side is naturally set off even more bleak.

But what she was actually more curious about was how there could be such a dilapidated shop in this Jingui area of ​​the South City, it was really out of place with the surrounding ones.

The old woman walked in front tremblingly, until he entered the backyard, went up another flight of stairs, and turned a corner, before he slowly stopped in front of a door.

Turning to Shu Yu and Sang Ning, he said, "Young Master, Miss, the Mandarin Duck Lantern is inside, you might as well go and try it, Young Master and Miss."

"Grandma, you don't even open the door, how can we guess the crossword puzzle?"

"The ancestors said that the crossword puzzle is here. Only those who can see it are eligible to guess the crossword puzzle, and those who guess correctly are eligible to enter the house and get the pair of mandarin duck lanterns."

After hearing this, Sang Ning couldn't help turning around to face the tightly closed door, and observed carefully up, down, left, and right.

In the end, I still didn’t see anything, and the door was still a door.

She quietly approached Shuyu, leaned into his ear and asked in a low voice, "Xianjun, can you see the words?"

"Ah."

Shu Yu responded lightly.

Hearing his answer, Sang Ning couldn't help but turned his head and glanced at the door, and looked around by the way, but he still didn't see anything.

She was rather dejected and said to herself: "It seems that I am not qualified to guess crossword puzzles, Xianjun, guess it."

After a long time, Shu Yu was still staring at the door without speaking.

"Hey, Xianjun, you can't guess the crossword puzzle above, can you? Or if you read it like this, maybe I can guess it?"

Sangning smiled slyly at Shuyu.

However, before Shuyu could answer, the old lady who had been waiting beside him said first, "Girl, everyone sees different answers to the riddles, so naturally you can't solve the riddles for others."

It’s not even possible to say it out, there are so many demands.

Sang Ning slandered silently, but didn't show any expression on his face.

"It's not necessarily a bad thing for a girl to see."

The old voice came again.

Sang Ning was bored and indeed curious, so he couldn't help chatting with the old woman, "Grandma, what do you mean by that?"

The old woman gave an inscrutable smile, "Mandarin Duck Lanterns are only for the lovers in the world to solve puzzles, and girls are ruthless and have no doubts, so naturally they can't see the answer."

"..."

"Really?" Sang Ning laughed dryly.

This thing is probably not very reliable.

"Snapped!"

The door opened from the outside and hit the wall on one side with a crisp sound.

Sang Ning looked sideways and saw Shu Yu turning to look at her.

She ran to Shu Yu's side in three steps and two steps, and she couldn't help poking inside.

The house was empty, with nothing in it.

The spider in the corner was dragging his fat body, weaving a web happily. A thick layer of dust had accumulated on the floor, and a gust of wind whizzed past outside, blowing up the dust all over the place.

Sang Ning caught off guard and inhaled the dust in his mouth, and couldn't help covering his face and coughing a few times.

He raised his sleeve and waved it fiercely in front of him, and also fanned the dust in front of Shu Yu.

After the dust settled down and her vision finally became clear, she looked into the house again.

There was still nothing in the room, but there was a big bronze mirror standing on the opposite side, two figures, one white and one purple, were vaguely reflected on the copper mirror covered with a layer of gray, it was she and Shuyu.

She twitched the corners of her mouth and asked a little amusedly: "Grandmother, is this the ancestral mandarin duck lantern you mentioned?"

"Mandarin duck lanterns are not for mandarin duck lanterns, but a bright light for lovers in the world."

Is there such a magical thing in the world?Daoming can be explained clearly about feelings?
Sang Ning didn't quite believe it.

"Does Lord Xing have any answers?"

Sang Ning turned her head to look at Shu Yu.

"Ah."

He had a serious face, and he really couldn't see any guilt or lying. For a while, Sang Ning was a little unsure whether the lantern riddle was really so magical.

It's a pity that she has so little spiritual power now that she can't forcefully read crossword puzzles.

But she is somewhat interested in who Shu Yu is infatuated with.

"Since the young master has guessed the crossword riddle, he must have gotten the answer he wanted. The old man can't let the young master and the girl go home empty-handed, so he gave the young master and the young lady a pair of river lanterns, and they will put them together in the same room until tonight. By the river, the prayers of the son and the girl will be heard by God."

"Thank you, mother-in-law."

Shu Yu unceremoniously picked out one of the many river lanterns made by the old woman.

Sang Ning took a look, and the lantern he picked out was exactly a peach blossom-shaped river lantern.

Peach Blossom River Lantern?Shu Yu couldn't be praying for marriage, right?

"What are you still doing? Choose one."

Shu Yu interrupted Sang Ning's thoughts, and she quickly responded twice and went to the middle of the lantern made by the old woman. After turning around twice, she didn't see any satisfactory river lanterns, so she randomly picked out a lotus flower from it. river lights.

She picked up the river lantern and said to the old woman, "Thank you, mother-in-law, then let's say goodbye first."

"Go slow, girl."

After the old woman bent down and watched Shu Yu and Sang Ning disappear at the end of the street, she suddenly straightened up and walked back into the house with a smile, without any of the old-fashioned posture just now.

"What are you looking at?"
