The little girl of the landlord's house

Chapter 113

Seeing his complacent look, Xie Yujiao guessed that he had guessed it, so she turned around and asked Xu Huiru, "I don't usually do much research on these lantern riddles and crossword puzzles, so tell me, have you guessed it?"

Xu Huiru went to school for a few years when she was a child, and her knowledge is indeed better than that of Xie Yujiao. Because she was behind just now, she couldn't see what was written on the red paper for a while, and now she said: "Bring me the topic, I will take a look." Take a guess too."

Xie Yujiao then turned around to ask Zhou Tianhao, and asked him to take out the red paper in his hand. Zhou Tianhao had to hold it in his hand, so naturally he refused to take it out, so he smiled slickly and said to Xu Huiru: "Cousin, call me brother-in-law, and I will give you the answer." Let me tell you, even the Lantern King will be given to you together."

Xu Huiru was the shyest girl in the first place. Usually, if Zhou Tianhao was present, she always felt a little embarrassed. Now, hearing him speak half-jokingly and half-seriously, she blushed even more. She hid behind Xie Yujiao and said, "Cousin , look at him..."

Xie Yujiao gave Zhou Tianhao a sideways glance, stretched out her hand and stretched out in front of him, saying, "Take it out quickly, don't blame me if you don't let me..."

Before Xie Yujiao finished speaking, Zhou Tianhao obediently took out the red paper and put it in her palm, and the two girls gathered together to look at it again.Xu Huiru looked at it and compared the words with her fingers. After trying several times, the corners of her mouth gradually curled up, and she just smiled and said, "Cousin, I guessed it, it's the 'doing' of 'doing things'! "

Zhou Tianhao on the side listened, and only slandered: It's obviously "doing" of "making love".

Of course, Xie Yujiao couldn't let Xie Yujiao hear this, otherwise, he would have no good fruit to eat.

Xie Yujiao listened to Xu Huiru's answer, and also lowered her head and wrote the word "do" on her palm. Seeing that it really was the truth, she just smiled and said to Zhou Tianhao: "How about it, you can't be a hero if you want to be this time, right?"

The two of them were talking, and they just smiled and took the red letter to the stall owner to check the answer. Seeing that Xu Huiru had written the answer, he just smiled and said: "I didn't expect the girl to be so quick-witted. This lamp king belongs to you again." gone."

Xu Huiru was so happy, she just stood on the side, waiting for the stall owner to take down the lamp king.Zhou Tianhao was a little depressed at the moment, he finally came across a problem that could be missed, and was guessed by others again. He walked around under the lantern and found that there was no problem that he could solve without using his brain. Can guess it.

The stall owner took the Lantern King down and was about to turn back and send it to Xu Huiru and the others when he saw a familiar figure approaching from not far away.When the stall owner saw him, a smile suddenly appeared on his face, and he went up to greet him with the lamp king in his hand: "Guest officer, do you still remember my lantern stall?"

The person who came was none other than Kang Guangshou who guessed the lantern riddle last year, so the stall owner recognized him at a glance.Now that the imperial court moved to the south, the Kang family also came to the south, so today Kang Guangshou took some nephews and nieces of his elder brother's family out to play.The children were followed by his servants, admiring the lanterns, so he planned to come and guess some lantern riddles and win two lanterns for them to play with.

"It turned out to be the boss. I was thinking that the lantern stall last year seemed to be here too." Kang Guangshou greeted the stall owner with a smile, and was a little surprised when he saw that he was holding the Lantern King in his hand. Someone guessed it soon?"

When the stall owner saw him asking, he just smiled and said: "No, no one guessed it after more than an hour. The two girls from last year came just now, and they guessed it right away. I looked at the young master and those two girls. The girl is destined, so the Lantern King should ask the young master to send it over."

Kang Guangshou heard the stall owner mention the two girls from last year, so he raised his head and inspected for a week. Sure enough, he saw Xie Yujiao and Xu Huiru standing by the side of the stall. who?

A smile suddenly appeared on Kang Guangshou's face, and he took the lamp king obediently, and walked towards the three of them with a smile.

At this time, Xu Huiru and Xie Yujiao were a little bored waiting, so they looked at the lantern riddles by the side of the stall.But now that they have all won the Lantern King, it's useless to ask for these little lanterns, so even if they guessed it, they didn't reach out for the red paper.

Xie Yujiao was feeling a little bored, and wanted to see what Zhou Tianhao would do again, when she suddenly saw Kang Guangshou carrying the Lantern King coming this way.Her heart skipped a beat, she turned her head and glanced at Xu Huiru, who was still concentrating on guessing the lantern riddles, and only took two steps forward, blocking Mr. Kang's way.

Seeing Xie Yujiao walking towards him, Kang Guangshou was about to salute, but Xie Yujiao stopped him and said, "It was my cousin Huiru who guessed the lantern riddle, my lord. Why don't you go and give her the Lantern King yourself?"

When Kang Guangshou heard this, a trace of embarrassment appeared on his face.In the blink of an eye, Mrs. Kang has been gone for more than half a year. This time, Kang's family moved south, and the elders also asked about Kang Guangshou's future. He has also been troubled by this matter recently.But what the elders said has some truth in the end. While the child is still young, find a stepmother, and the relationship between the child and the stepmother will be deeper in the future. If the stepmother only enters the door when the child is older, it will be just Difficult to raise.

Kang Guangshou was about to decline, but Xie Yujiao had already quietly stepped back, only pulling Zhou Tianhao at the side, and said with a smile: "Let's go..."

Zhou Tianhao was guessing lantern riddles just now, when he saw Kang Guangshou coming, he was about to go up to say hello, but he was dragged away by Xie Yujiao unexpectedly, and some monks Zhang Er couldn't figure it out, so Xie Yujiao said in his ear: "If you want Kang Guangshou My lord will be your brother-in-law, come with me now."

Zhou Tianhao suddenly realized, and let Xie Yujiao pull him out of the crowd. The two leaned against the railing by the river, watching Xu Huiru and Kang Guangshou who were submerged in the crowd from afar.

"The nerd surnamed Kang is the most boring. It's boring to be with him. My cousin may not like it." Zhou Tianhao remembered how many times he went to school with Kang Guangshou when he was young. He fell asleep more and more sleepily under the sound of books.Because he grew up like a monkey, Zhou Tianhao felt that "he is not human" when he saw Kang Guangshou who was self-disciplined like a robot and good at reading.

But in fact, most of the wealthy families in the capital city know how to have fun. Kang Guangshou is the unlucky one, because he read with Prince Rui, so... his good childhood was deprived.

"How do you know that my cousin doesn't like nerds? Is it true that you are the only one who is likable if you are out of shape? I like Mr. Kang, who is stable, mature, safe, and reliable. "

Hearing this, Zhou Tianhao only cleared his throat, put on a mature expression, and kept his cheeks stern.Seeing him like this, Xie Yujiao thought that what she just said had offended him, so she burst out laughing and said, "What are you?"

Zhou Tianhao kept his expression cold and said, "Don't you like to be mature and stable? Does this count?"

Xie Yujiao frowned, stretched out her hands to pinch his cheeks, rubbed them back and forth, and said, "You are so sad, but you are still mature and stable, you are a big head."

Among the crowd at the lantern stand, Kang Guangshou was standing in front of Xu Huiru with some embarrassment holding the Lantern King.Xu Huiru lowered her head and turned her body half sideways, her cheeks flushed with embarrassment.In fact, at this time, everyone was busy guessing the lantern riddles, and no one noticed them, but it was a bit embarrassing to stand there like this.

Xu Huiru raised her head and glanced out of the crowd. She saw Xie Yujiao and Zhou Tianhao leaning on the railing to watch the scenery. If she passed by at this time, it would be a bit unpleasant.

Kang Guangshou followed Xu Huiru's line of sight, and he knew in his heart that the little girl was shy, and wanted to escape but didn't know how to escape, it was really embarrassing for her.

"Miss Xu, there are a lot of people here, shall we also go to the riverside to enjoy the lanterns?" Kang Guangshou held a lantern king in his hand, and it was really inconvenient to stand among the crowd.

When Xu Huiru heard what he said, she immediately breathed a sigh of relief. She felt like she wanted to run away immediately, but the person in front of her was the county magistrate of Jiangning, and she didn't dare to offend him. If she did, her cousin would definitely blame her in the future my own.

Xu Huiru bit the bullet and nodded, only lowered her head, and walked ahead.Today, she is wearing a goose-yellow gown with clean face and four-happiness and wishful-pattern makeup, which looks extraordinarily soft under the lantern, and her walking posture is quite graceful and graceful like a noble girl in the capital.

Because Xie Yujiao and Zhou Tianhao were by the river, they deliberately found another place far away. Not far from the side happened to be the wharf where the people put the river lanterns. Looking at the river lantern, squatting on the bank and watching the river lantern slowly drifting away.

After all, Xu Huiru is a girl at heart, and she must like it when she sees these things. When I was a child, I heard my mother tell me to write my wishes in the river lanterns. After letting them go on the night of the Lantern Festival, those wishes will come true in the future.She had never made any wish since she was a child, but at this time she wanted to make one in particular.

Kang Guangshou stood not far behind Xu Huiru, saw her staring at the river lantern in the river in a daze, thought for a moment, took out a few copper coins, bought a small river lantern from a nearby stall, and handed it to Xu Huiru Said: "If Miss Xu has any wish, you can also put a river lantern to try."

Xu Huiru's cheeks turned red again, so she took the river lantern handed over by Kang Guangshou in embarrassment, walked over to the long table where everyone wrote their wishes, picked up the pen, thought for a while with the end of the pen, and then wrote: May all my loved ones be happy and healthy.

Xu Huiru wrote down her wish, folded it up and put it in the river lantern. Like everyone else, she put the river lantern into the water, touched the cold water with her fingers, but felt warm in her heart.

Xie Yujiao watched from a distance, pulled Zhou Tianhao's sleeve and said, "Look, Mr. Kang is a nerd? He is much smarter than you? He even knows how to give a river lantern to his cousin, tell me? Now eat mine, drink mine, and I haven't seen you give me half a fingernail!"

Hearing what Xie Yujiao said, Zhou Tianhao suddenly felt that he had really failed in this aspect. He reached out and touched his waist, and only took off the one thing he was wearing today, and handed it to Xie Yujiao. : "This jade pendant, can I give it to you first?"
