Chapter 25
The Chinese New Year is over soon, and it will be the Lantern Festival in a blink of an eye.On this day, every family goes to the East Street to appreciate the lanterns.The female relatives of the general's mansion also prepared early and were ready to go.

Duan Yunsu looked at Duan Yunjin, who was also born to the second concubine, but compared with Duan Yunshang, Duan Yunjin's appearance was a bit worse.Today, Duan Yunjin is wearing a pink embroidered gold dress with lifelike embroidered butterflies on the skirt. The delicately painted makeup, complemented by the butterfly gold hairpin in the bun, also adds a bit of beauty.

The third aunt and the fourth aunt had also carefully dressed up and stood quietly by the side.As for the second aunt, the grandmother punished her to ground her feet, and the order has not yet been lifted.

Compared with this, Duan Yunrong is much more low-key. Today, her dress is a little more refined but well-behaved, with light rouge on her face. Seeing that she is actually wearing the same color clothes as Duan Yunsu, she feels a little uneasy.

The eldest sister gets along well with her these days, but thinking of her previous attitude, I still feel a little scared.I didn't dare to decorate too much, because I was afraid of stealing the limelight from my sister-in-law, but I didn't expect to wear the same color clothes today, she obviously went to inquire about it...

Duan Yunsu smiled slightly, expressing that he didn't care, and got into the sedan chair first.

When we got to Dongjie, everyone got off the sedan chair.Because the old lady had explained earlier that the female relatives who came out must walk together, and they must not get lost, so they walked slowly accompanied by the servants and maids.

Lanterns are hung everywhere on the street, and under the illumination of the lights, the atmosphere is even more intense.Duan Yunsu looked left and right curiously, dazzled by all kinds of beautiful lights.

Skillfully crafted revolving horse lanterns, simple lotus lanterns, and lifelike colored lanterns with flowers and birds, beautiful women full of laughter pass by slowly, leaving behind a ray of fragrance as the poem says.

How could she have seen such a lively scene in her previous life.

The crowd was getting more and more crowded, and it was a bit difficult to walk side by side, and several people were dispersed without any accident.Fortunately, a few people had said earlier that if they get separated, don't be afraid, there are people arranged in advance by the General's Mansion in the big shed for guessing lantern riddles.

Duan Yunsu walked slowly, looked at the lanterns of different shapes, raised his head slightly, and saw the stars commensurate with the lights, and his mood suddenly became brighter.

She stopped in front of a stall, and the lamp seller was an old man in his fifties, smiling and squinting at his granddaughter.The granddaughter holds a rabbit lamp in her hand, and her little face is full of happy smiles.

Duan Yunsu couldn't help but look at the little girl a few more times, he had never enjoyed this kind of warmth, it was simple and warm, which made her really envious.

"Girl, did you like this plum blossom lantern?" the old man asked.

Duan Yunsu came back to his senses, and it turned out that his hand happened to rest on a lantern.A few plum blossoms are painted in the lamp, with a few strokes, but it fully expresses the aloof nature of the plum blossoms.

Duan Yunsu actually doesn't have much affection for plum blossoms. Compared with these elegant things, she actually loves those rare herbs more.It's just that she couldn't refuse the old man's radiant eyes.

"But there is also a rabbit lamp?" She looked at the simple lamp in the little girl's hand, and suddenly felt envious in her heart.

The old man was a little embarrassed, the rabbit lamp was poorly made, but it was made to coax his granddaughter, he didn't expect this beautiful and expensive lady to take a fancy to it.

"Girl, I'm really sorry." The old man said shyly.

Duan Yunsu smiled, feeling a little lost in his heart: "It's okay, then I'll just take this plum blossom lantern."

Just as he was about to bring the lamp over, he was blocked by a pair of hands that suddenly appeared.With slender and white fingers, Duan Yunsu looked up, the yellowish light hit the other's handsome face, and the warm and jade-like eyes made her startled slightly.

It turned out to be Qi Shucheng.

"Miss Duan." Qi Shucheng was the first to break the silence between the two.

Duan Yunsu came back to his senses, withdrew his outstretched hand, and said with a smile: "So it's Mr. Qi, I wonder how Mrs. Qi is doing now?"

"Thanks to the girl, my mother is fine." Qi Shucheng's warm eyes were full of unknown brilliance: "Why did you only see you, but you were separated from your family?"

Duan Yunsu nodded.

"There are more and more people, let me go with you." The Shangyuan Festival is very lively, and it is really dangerous for this beautiful girl to walk alone.

The two walked side by side, and Qi Shucheng shielded Duan Yunsu from those who approached him.

A person hurried past in front of him suddenly, Duan Yunsu didn't pay attention for a while, and was bumped into.Her body was hit hard, and she directly bumped into Qi Shucheng's arms.

The lights all over the street couldn't hide Qi Shucheng's reddish face, he gently wrapped Duan Yunsu around, surrounded by the woman's fragrance, his heart was beating "ploppppppp".

Duan Yunsu leaned in his arms, and originally wanted to say sorry, but when her ears pressed against her chest heard his heart beating wildly, her face was also quietly stained with rouge.

This posture is really inappropriate, people passing by all looked at them quietly, but they laughed it off.

The Shangyuan Festival in Xiguo was originally a festival for men and women to express their feelings for each other. It seems that others have misunderstood the relationship between her and Qi Shucheng.

Duan Yunsu hurriedly wanted to get out of his arms, but unexpectedly, he was held down by the other party as soon as he moved. His voice was slightly nervous and hoarse, and he said in a low voice: "Miss Duan, I...I..."

The flowers are blooming like a brocade, and there is a lot of traffic, who will really pay attention to this pair of "lovers" all the time?The people passing by, with kind smiles in their eyes, glanced at it, but never stopped.

The beautiful scenery of the festive season means that you have to keep walking to meet the other half.

Unexpectedly, there might really be such a person watching this pair helplessly.

"Master, what are you looking at?"

The man's charming peach eyes were full of mist, he stared blankly at the front but did not speak, his biting lips turned white, and the unconsciously clenched sleeves revealed his uneasiness at the moment.

"Young master, young master?" Zhao Fang called again, and looked over, but only saw the crowd.

It's really strange, why did the young master who was still happy suddenly turn into such a sad look?If the princess found out, she would definitely have to deduct her monthly payment again.

Duan Yunsu's eyes flickered slightly, she seemed to understand what Qi Shucheng was about to say.But this is just a person she has met once, and she is a little uncertain...

A firework suddenly exploded in the air. Under the bright light, Duan Yunsu vaguely saw the figure hiding behind the Lantern Festival stall, and his body froze suddenly.

Those unusually shining eyes in the dark night seemed to be complaining silently.

"I'm sorry..." Duan Yunsu snorted.

She didn't know why, but when she saw that person, she actually felt guilty!Could it be that he was afraid that his pure heart would be tarnished if he saw this scene innocently?Duan Yunsu also found it a little funny, she didn't understand why, but she still obeyed her own will.
