Chapter 976 The Meaning of the Ribbon

Seeing the figures of Xiaoyu and Qingluo squeezed into the crowd, and seeing them again, Conch came back to his senses, and said to Lin Jinyu with a complicated expression: "Brother Yu, let's go?"

Lin Jinyu glanced at the place where Qingluo's figure disappeared, and nodded: "Okay."

They walked in silence for a while, and from time to time on the road, a woman wearing a mask looked at Lin Jinyu, and even wanted to tie the ribbon in her hand to his arm.

Conch firmly stood beside him, blocking the crowd of bees and butterflies away, not giving them a chance to get close to Lin Jinyu.

"These people are really annoying," Conch took him to a place where there were few people, and complained, "I don't know when it started, the Sea God's Day will soon become the Qixi Festival..."

Lin Jinyu was puzzled: "What do you mean?"

"Did you see the ribbons they were holding just now?" Conch explained, "Those are unmarried women. If they fall in love with someone, they will tie the ribbons on that person. If that person Accepting it means that he is also willing."

"Really, but they all wear the same clothes, and the ribbons are the same. How to distinguish?"

"Those ribbons are all embroidered with their names." Conch held up the ribbons around her waist to show him, "I asked the teacher in the village to write these, and we embroidered them according to the appearance."

"Oh." Lin Jinyu nodded, thinking that the little girl seemed to be wearing such a belt around her slender waist in her mind.

Did it have her name on it too?

Will she, like those women just now, give the ribbon to a certain man?

This thought made Lin Jinyu feel a little uncomfortable.

The temperature around him dropped suddenly.

Conch couldn't help shivering, looked up at the sun, and muttered, "Why is it so cold, it's really strange..."

Holding the ribbon, she kept aiming at the arm of the young man beside her, but she couldn't muster the courage to give the ribbon to him.

Lin Jinyu asked lightly: "How is Uncle Hai's illness?"

"Oh, my dad, he's much better." Conch was a little flustered, her heart swayed, and she reached out and stuffed the ribbon into Lin Jinyu's arms.Then he lowered his head, blushing like blood, and never dared to look at him again.

Lin Jinyu glanced at the ribbon, picked it up, and gently put it in Conch's hand, "You should give it to another man."

The redness on Conch's face faded instantly, and tears overflowed from her eyes, "Why, why?"

"Don't waste any more time on me." Although Lin Jinyu's voice was soft, her attitude was clear and cold.

Conch grabbed the ribbon, trembling lips: "Brother Yu, I know...you must like that girl Luo. That's why you rejected me."

Lin Jinyu was noncommittal.

He's not interested and doesn't need to explain anything to anyone.

Conch didn't give up: "If she hadn't come to you, would you have stayed here forever?"

"In this world, there is no such thing as what if." Lin Jinyu turned and left, "Since your father is much better, I don't think I need to go anymore."

He left without looking back.

Conch covered the ribbon with both hands, fell to the ground, and cried uncontrollably.

From the moment she saw Miss Luo's true face, she knew that he would never like her.

Ask yourself, if she were a man, she would definitely be infatuated with that beautiful face.

Returning home in a daze, looking at himself in the mirror, he was really far away from that goddess face.

Uncle Hai outside called her: "Conch, what's wrong with you? Didn't you go to find Mr. Yu?"

Conch threw herself on the bed, covered her face with the pillow, "Father, don't bother me, let me be alone!"

"What's wrong with Conch?" A woman's voice came from the door.

Conch quickly looked up, and it turned out to be Mrs. He, who hurriedly stood up and told her, "Ah, auntie, why are you here? Come in and sit down."

Mrs. He sat by the bed, looked at her red eyes, and smiled slightly: "It's a big festival, what's the matter?"

"No, nothing..." Conch said hoarsely, slowly lowering her head.

Mrs. He is someone who has been here, so she can tell at a glance, and said with a smile: "We women, the greatest happiness is to marry a good man. Have a lifelong support."

Conch bowed his head and remained silent.

Mrs. He continued to laugh and said, "Mr. Yu is really a dragon and a phoenix among people. Not to mention our village, even the county, I have never seen any young master with such talent and appearance. Conch, don't miss the opportunity gone."

Conch couldn't help crying: "Auntie, stop talking, he doesn't like me."

"Really, our Conch is also a handsome girl, how can any man not like it?"

"Auntie, you don't understand..." Conch thought of Miss Luo's beautiful face, and felt extremely sour.

Mrs. He smiled and said, "Auntie only knows that women are water and men are fire. How can there be water that can't put out fire?"

She raised her face with tears all over her face: "Auntie..."

"The deadline is two days away, you have to hurry up." Mrs. He said earnestly, "Whether it's for your own lifelong happiness, or for the lives of the whole village."

Conch was startled.

"Think about it yourself. Today is the Sea God's Day. You have to seize this opportunity. I'm still busy at home, so I'll leave first." She stood up.

Conch also stood up, "Did the village head ask you to come?"

"Hehe, is this important? Conch, you are a smart girl, and my aunt trusts you."

Mrs. He smiled and walked out slowly.

Conch looked at herself in the mirror, thought for a long time, and finally made up her mind.

She picked up the washbasin, fetched a basin of water, washed her face, picked up the compact rouge, and carefully redressed.Then he put on a mask, went out to say hello to Uncle Hai, left the house, and walked outside.

The lively dragon dance competition has already started in the coconut grove.

Young girls and boys crowded in the crowd, laughing and applauding non-stop.

Conch squeezed through the crowd, didn't care to watch the excitement, and came to the village head He's house all the way.

When Madam He saw her wearing a mask, she asked, "Which family's child, are you looking for Xiaoyu?"

Conch nodded: "Auntie, it's me, I'm here to play with Xiaoyu. Is she at home?"

Mrs. He gave her a strange look and nodded: "Oh yes, you can go."

Conch walked straight to Xiaoyu's room, and as soon as he entered the door, he saw Du Xiaoyu lying on the bed, and Miss Luo sitting beside her.

She didn't wear a mask, a beautiful face like a hibiscus, which made Conch both envious and jealous.

Qing Luo immediately recognized the peach blossom mask, and said coldly, "What are you doing here?"

Xiaoyu saw her too, turned over with a sullen face, not wanting to see her.

Conch walked timidly to the bed and said in a low voice: "Xiaoyu, are you okay, did you fall? I'm here to apologize to you."
