Sick King and Concubine

Chapter 38 Wontons
But Jiang Li doesn't know that some people's tenderness can only be towards one person.His deep fear does not come from the rubbing shoulders of life and death, but from your eyes that you never looked at.

The two turned around and finally turned to the main street. The street was crowded with people, all kinds of lanterns were circling around, and there was a lot of light in front of them. Everyone held a lantern in their hands. The little girl ran over with a large set of lanterns in her hand, looked at Jiang Li and Chu Yu, and said in a crisp voice, "Brother and sister, please buy a lantern."

Chu Yu and Jiang Li looked at each other, both of them paused for the first time when they encountered this situation, and the little girl quickly picked out a pair of rabbit lanterns from her lanterns with wide open eyes. Stuffing them into their hands, they said with a smile: "The male rabbit of the elder brother, and the female rabbit of the elder sister, they are just a pair!"

Jiang Li's face was slightly burning, but Chu Yu smiled and touched it from his bosom. He brought some loose silver taels specially for the trip, and now he took out one and stuffed it into the little girl's hand, saying: " We bought it."

The little girl looked at Chu Yu and was stunned: "My brother's eyes are so beautiful."

After speaking, he glanced at Jiang Li again, and said: "My sister is so beautiful, even more beautiful than the fairies drawn by Grandpa Chen. My brother and sister are more beautiful than my sister-in-law and elder brother."

Chu Yu patted her on the head with a smile, and the little girl ran into the crowd laughing.

Jiang Li burned her face slightly, and said, "It's just what the little girl said."

Chu Yu smiled without answering, stretched out his hand to raise the lantern in his hand, and said, "It's really delicate."

The best silk is pasted on the bamboo strips, and a jade rabbit is picked out, painted red with shells as eyes, tied with tassels and hung, and a small bell is dropped below it, and there is a crisp sound when it is slightly moved.

Jiang Li nodded and said, "Well, it looks very beautiful."

Chu Yu was holding a lantern in his hand, and with her by his side, he felt a strange feeling in his heart. He had chopped a bone with a knife in his hand, and he had received a book of blood and war. The most common lantern, he looked at the long street like a wandering dragon, and said: "This is the Lantern Festival held every year in Chu State. On this day, no matter what happens, every person in Chu State must throw away all their sorrows." , every household will tie up lanterns and hang them all over their houses to symbolize the happiness of the coming year, and at this time, relatives from far away will go home to get together, so this day is also called the Reunion Festival. Listen to the officials of the pawn It is said that there are more than 30 lanterns on this day. These more than 30 are the wishes of more than 30 reunion."

Jiang Li looked at the lantern and said with a smile: "Reunion, although I don't know if such a reunion can come true, but I will do it."

"I believe." Chu Yu answered lightly.

"Huh?" Jiang Li turned his eyes to look at him, only seeing the outline like the breeze and the moon, as if carved on a jade bi.

Chu Yu turned to meet Jiang Li's eyes, which were so dark that people couldn't see clearly. He smiled slightly, but he uttered each word with a shocking temperature: "If one day, the girl I like doesn't When I come back, I will wait no matter whether it is blue or yellow. Just like this person with a lantern, she believes in the yin and yang of life and death, and she will always come back."

Jiang Li's heart stopped suddenly, and then jumped up at a speed that he couldn't imagine. The brilliant lights were dimmed because of the eyes he cast, and all the lively voices were silenced, only the eyes of that person were bright. Like Chaoyang, only those words echoed in my ears over and over again, clasping my heart.

But all of a sudden, an unspeakable sadness welled up in Jiang Li's heart. The yin and yang of life and death sound so thin, but when that gap appears, who can endure the illusory and endless Lonely, how about waiting for someone like that?
Jiang Li was almost obsessed with thinking, but the man opposite her stared deeply little by little, and some hidden deep things flashed by, and instantly returned to calm nothingness.

Her slightly frowned eyebrows were a little sad, Chu Yu raised her hand, and almost couldn't help stretching it out to smooth it out for her, but stopped halfway, and instead supported her slightly, softly Said: "The car is coming, be careful."

Jiang Li suddenly woke up, leaned in hastily, turned his gaze, and saw a row of luxurious carriages moving forward on the street.

The people next to him stepped aside one after another, and couldn't help but stop to look at it. The horse was proud, the curtain of the carriage was drawn up, and there were beautiful faces inside, and laughter and laughter came from layer upon layer.

Jiang Li and Chu Yu didn't care, they turned around and walked along the flow of people to another place, not even noticing that they had caught someone's eyes.

"Look! Is that the one from the Jiang family?"

"It seems so. Sister Liu, what's the matter with you?"

"There's a man next to her! Ha! I didn't expect that she would be so courageous! She has given us all the handles, so what are we waiting for?"

Jiang Li and Chu Yu pushed aside the crowd and walked slowly among the lights.

The snow-white cloak that Jiang Li was wearing was made of the feathers of an unknown bird, and the smooth ones fell down comfortably, covering the whole body. Chu Yu also wore a mink fur, with the snow-white mink fur underneath There is a circle around the collar, and the demeanor and demeanor alone make people feel that Tsinghua is dust-free and daunting.

Both of them were tall and slender, walking in the crowd with an umbrella, they couldn't help but let the passers-by get out of their way, and they even took the initiative to make way for them, and they all raised their eyes to have a look.

But Chu Yu pressed the purple bamboo umbrella extremely low, and sprinkled it with snow powder, making it difficult for people to see clearly.

The two turned to the wonton stand next to them. Because of the cold weather, a bowl of hot wontons seemed particularly attractive at this time. Chu Yu turned to Jiang Li: "Do you want to eat?"

Jiang Li looked at the stall, smiled and nodded: "Thank you, Your Highness."

The two entered the small stall next to them and entered the shed. Chu Yu put away the umbrella and sat down in a corner seat.

Jiang Li was about to sit down, but Chu Yu stopped her: "Wait a minute."

Jiang Li took a look and saw Chu Yu straighten out the hem of his clothes, put it under Jiang Li's stool, and said with a smile, "Sit down."

The snow-white clothes were spread softly in the dark, and Jiang Li really wanted to refuse. Such tenderness and care made her feel unbearable. She hesitated for a while before she said: "Your Highness, I'm afraid it's not appropriate to do this like this." .”

Chu Yu raised his eyes, looked at her quietly, and said, "What's wrong?"

Jiang Li opened her mouth, yes, what's wrong, is it because she is afraid of such tenderness? Such a high-ranking person should be far away from her, but such close care is really It's flattering.Jiang Li bit the bullet and said, "Be careful to get His Highness's clothes dirty."
