168. Postscript 02
The weather in the capital during the Chinese New Year is very good, with warm sunshine and not strong winds. During the Spring Festival, the people went out to enjoy the lanterns.
Gillian and Zhao Yanping have passed this lively age. They asked Meng Zhao to take their younger brother and sister there, and then arranged for Guo Xing and Chu Jin's maid Shuangtao to follow him. With the security of the capital, it was enough.
"Don't go to places with too many people." Zhao Yanping instructed before the children set off.
Meng Zhao and Chu Jindu nodded, Zhao Fang's eyes were circling around, and 80% of them didn't listen.
Zhao Yanping had the most headache for his youngest son. He looked like him, but his temper was not similar at all. In the past, he didn't quite understand his mentor Lu Taigong, wise and steady, Lord Lu was humble and gentle, Minister Lu was rich in learning five cars, and his grandparents and grandchildren raised Lu Jun, who was devoted to martial arts. It was not until his youngest son grew older that Zhao Yanping finally understood that the child was quiet and naughty, and had no direct relationship with his parents and family.
Zhao Yanping handed the eldest son a look.
Meng Zhao understood that it is the best time to watch the lanterns tonight, and it is the most important to take good care of your younger brothers and sisters.
The children set off, and Jiao and Zhao Yanping had a rare leisure time, so they didn't ask their servants to follow. The couple snuggled up to the yard to enjoy the night view.
During the Chinese New Year, the night market is naturally prosperous.
Chu Jin likes the lanterns with halos and flowing on both sides of the street, but Zhao Fang prefers to go to the food stall to buy food. No matter whether it is clean or not, the more it is rarely made at home, such as grilled lamb skewers, grilled pork skewers, fried stinky tofu, etc., the more greedy he is. He is the youngest, so Chu Jin and Meng Zhao have to take care of their younger brother first.
The three brothers and sisters lined up in front of the skewer stall. When it was almost their turn, a surprise voice suddenly came from the distance: "Shouzheng?"
Shouzheng is the name Zhao Yanping named Meng Zhao.
Mr. Lu always felt that his apprentice was following him, otherwise why did he call Zeng Changsun Lu Jun a name, Shoushen, and hope that the boy would use his brain to think twice before he acted when something happened, and never be impatient and impulsive. Zhao Yanping turned around and called Meng Zhao a "keep the truth"?
With such obvious reference, Mr. Lu must have a lesson if he changes his individual. Can he think more about one? However, considering that Zhao Yanping didn't have much ink in his belly, Mr. Lu didn't care about his apprentice. The apprentice didn't come to ask him for help in the word "chief". Mr. Lu was already content.
Meng Zhao was so familiar with Lu Jun's voice that he knew it was him without even looking at it.
Chu Jin was not that familiar. When he turned his head, he saw Lu Jun and Lu Yi brothers standing more than twenty steps away. The people were coming and going around the two brothers, making the Lu brothers with more and more handsome appearance, especially Lu Jun. Although he was not so careful in speaking and doing things, his face was extremely outstanding. His two sword eyebrows were flying and upright, his black eyes were as bright as cold stars, and he was tall, leading the crowd.
When he noticed that Lu Jun looked at her, Chu Jin withdrew his gaze and continued to look at the owner of the skewer stall.
Lu Jun and Lu Yi naturally walked over.
"You are here to enjoy the lanterns too?" Meng Zhao took the initiative to say to Lu Jun.
Lu Jun patted Lu Yi on the shoulder and said disgustingly: "He wants to come out, but my mother is worried, so she asks me to follow."
Lu Yi immediately exposed him: "No, it's you..."
Before he finished speaking, Lu Jun glared at him, pointed to the skewer stall and asked, "Do you want to eat it?"
The skewers are so fragrant, it would be fine if they didn’t see them. Since they saw them, Lu Yi would of course have to eat them.
Lu Jun asked his younger brother to think about what they tasted good first and order it later.
"You have just returned from Jiangnan. I treat you this time, which is to treat you to you." Lu Jun said with a cheerful smile, and after saying that, his eyes shook on Chu Jin's face again.
Tonight, Chu Jin tied a cherry-colored fox-haired cloak. Her white face was covered with a circle of fox-haired fur on her neck, making her look as beautiful as jade, so tender that people want to touch her and eat her bites.
As soon as this rude and abrupt scene appeared in his head, Lu Jun quickly looked elsewhere. He was obsessed with evil spirits. He was usually the most shameful playboys in the official school who were not good at everything, but only knew how to brag or talk dirty. Why did he have some playboys when he saw Chu Jin?
For a moment, Lu Jun didn't dare to look at Chu Jin anymore.
This is Chu Jin, Meng Zhao's sister, Lord Zhao's beloved daughter, he actually wants to be gentle. Bo Chu Jin is simply a bird and a beast, and Lu Jun himself looks down on him.
I don’t want to be a bird or a beast, the best way is to leave here, but after getting the skewers, Lu Jun couldn’t bear to leave.
Meng Zhao, who was weak and weak, suddenly found a reason for himself. Chu Jin was so beautiful that he might meet a playboy. Meng Zhao could not protect her alone. He must be guarded by him.
In this way, Lu Jun took his younger brother and his three brothers and sisters to enjoy the lanterns together with him.
"Don't Chu Jin like to eat skewers?"
While Meng Zhao was staring at Zhao Fang, Lu Jun held a handful of grilled skewers in his right hand, touched his nose with his left hand, and sneaked up with Chu Jin for two steps, and asked nervously.
When Chu Jin saw the skewers in his hand, he subconsciously moved them aside for two steps, worried that his clean and tender cloak would be stained with the oil from his skewers.
After avoiding it, Chu Jincai said, "I like to eat, but this is the street, so no girl is out of favor."
When Lu Jun heard this, he immediately stopped and looked around. He pointed to an alley in front and said, "Let's go there, I'll guard outside, you can finish eating before coming out." As he said that, he handed all the skewers in his hand to Chu Jin.
The skewers were shining with seductive oil under the light. Chu Jin really wanted to eat them. If Lu Jun was a foreign man who had met for the first time, Chu Jin would not accept this proposal anyway, but he was Lu Jun. Everyone knew it well, and Lu Jun himself did not value rules and etiquette. Then she was a little rude. Lu Jun would neither care nor mention it to outsiders.
But Chu Jin was still reserved.
Shuangtao saw the girl’s thoughts, smiled and pointed to the lamp shop next to the entrance of the alley and said, “Girl, the lanterns hanging on that lamp shop are quite unique, let’s go and take a look.”
Chu Jinnang laughed and nodded.
Lu Jun was not stupid either, so he ordered his younger brother to go and say something to Meng Zhao, and he accompanied Chu Jin's master and servant to the lamp shop.
Guo Xing always kept a distance of about ten steps.
The Zhao and Lu families have a good relationship, and Guo Xing doesn't think there is anything wrong with Lu Jun taking care of his own girl.
When he arrived at the lamp shop, Lu Jun signaled Chu Jin to enter the alley with his eyes.
Chu Jin moved into the corner of the wall bit by bit. The light here was dim and she could see the people on the street clearly. People on the street should not see her clearly. Lu Jun also wanted to follow in. Chu Jin shook his head and asked him to stand outside, using his tall figure to cover her. Then she took the skewers handed over by Lu Jun and ate with her back to Lu Jun.
Lu Jun stood sideways and saw her holding the skewer tags in both hands, secretly touching her back, like a greedy kitten.
Lu Jun thought that when she was a child, she would also go to the rockery to play, and she did not really abide by the rules at all times.
Lu Jun liked it even more.
Meng Zhao didn't leave his sister for too long, so he came over with Zhao Fang. Seeing Lu Jun standing outside under the lights, his sister, seeing that she was probably eating skewers, Meng Zhao smiled and did not disturb her sister. She walked to the lamp shop and picked up a lantern to buy it.
Chu Jin ate five strings and had fun. She took out a handkerchief to wipe her mouth.
This is an ordinary handkerchief, without embroidering her boudoir name, because it was dirty and greasy on her lips. Chu Jin didn't want it anymore, so he secretly gathered the handkerchief into a ball and threw it deep in the alley, and then walked as if nothing had happened and found a place where the light could reach.
Seeing Lu Jun staring at her and having short sucking hands, Chu Jin smiled at him for the first time and said softly: "Thank you, Brother Lu."
She smiled like a flower. Lu Jun was so stunning that he was still worried about what to say. Chu Jin had already walked to Meng Zhao.
"Do you like it?" Meng Zhao asked holding a lotus-shaped lantern.
Chu Jin smiled: "I like it, my brother is so good."
She carried the lantern and walked towards the middle of the street.
Meng Zhao and Lu Jun gave a look and followed Zhao Fang.
Lu Jun thought for a while and said to his younger brother Lu Yi: "You go there first, I'll go and make some more convenient."
Lu Yi looked at him disgustedly and walked away decisively.
Meng Zhao didn't see Lu Jun and asked him in confusion.
Lu Yi approached his ear and muttered in a low voice.
Meng Zhao got it.
In the alley, Lu Jun bent over and searched the ground for a while but couldn't find Chu Jin's handkerchief. Just when he was wondering whether Chu Jin's natural power had thrown too far away, he suddenly noticed that a half-human-tall dry weed grew under the base of the wall. When he looked up and down, he found a handkerchief stuck in the middle of a ball of grass branches.
I can't see any color, but it must be from Chu Jin.
Lu Jun smiled, took off the handkerchief and put it in his arms, and ran out with satisfaction.
"Why are you walking so slowly?" Back to Meng Zhao, Lu Jun habitually patted his shoulder.
Meng Zhao glanced at his hand and avoided it without a trace.
How could Lu Jun guess that his friend was disgusting him? Because he got Chu Jin's veil, he was in a good mood. Even if he didn't go to see Chu Jin, he kept smiling. After passing a street stall in a circle, Lu Yi and Zhao Fang wanted to play. Lu Jun paid again and bought twenty circles for each person in one go, even Chu Jin's maid Shuangtao.
Everyone arranged in the order of seniority, and Zhao Fang took the lead.
Lu Yi is the same age as Chu Jin. Lu Yi is gentleman and let Chu Jin first.
They were all acquaintances, so Chu Jin was not polite. He carefully looked at the things placed on the ground. Chu Jin took a look at a jade bracelet placed in the left corner of the penultimate row.
No matter how frugal Ajiao and Zhao Yanping lived a life of thrift, they never treated their daughter harshly, let alone Meng family in Zhenbei Hou Mansion, Mei family in Liguo Duke's Mansion, Shen Ying from Yongping's Marquis' Mansion, and the imperial concubine in the palace all had all appreciated Chu Jin's various good things. How good can this street stall be? Chu Jin liked the jade bracelet because he was not interested in other items.
She wanted to play, so she had to wear this bracelet.
Unfortunately, the bracelet was small and flat. She threw twenty circles but failed to let the circle fall steadily on the jade bracelet.
After throwing it away, Chu Jin couldn't hide his disappointment.
She was the only girl in the group. Although Lu Yi was young and knew how to take care of women, she also walked to Chu Jin's position and wanted to trap him.
As a result, Lu Yi was also empty.
The stall owner laughed.
It was Meng Zhao's turn, and Meng Zhao naturally wanted to help his sister. He was tall and had a correct look. He touched the jade bracelet several times, but he jumped up again.
Lu Jun muttered it was a pity, his palms were covered in sweat. Fortunately, Meng Zhao didn't get the trap, otherwise how could he have the chance to perform?
Finally it was time for him to take action. Lu Jun glanced at Chu Jin, threw the first circle gently, and landed steadily on the jade bracelet, without moving for a moment, just circled the jade bracelet in the center.
The stall owner widened his eyes as if he was a ghost.
The onlookers cheered and cheered. Lu Jun smiled with his starry eyes and looked at Chu Jin beside him.
At that time, the moonlight was bright and the lights were flowing. The young man was so energetic that he fell into Chu Jin's eyes, like the bright moon in the sky, causing the stars to lose their light.
My heartbeat suddenly slapped, and I felt passionately climbing onto my snow cheeks.
She drooped her eyelashes first.
When Lu Jun saw this, he went to ask the stall owner to bring the jade bracelet over.
Although the stall owner couldn't bear to leave it, he still forced a smile to present the jade bracelet with both hands.
Lu Jun took it first and then went to Chu Jin.
Chu Jin turned his head and said, "I don't want it if you're trapped."
Lu Jun said when she was polite, she smiled and said, "I was just trapping you, otherwise what would I want this girl's house to do?"
He was careless, but Chu Jin had something to do and avoided his brother, but he just refused to accept it.
Meng Zhao was a sister who avoided the fact that men and women were not allowed to marry each other, so she blocked her sister and asked Lu Jun to put it away by herself.
With him blocking her, Lu Jun could only see Chu Jin's hairpin, and she was determined to give her but didn't want it. Lu Jun's good mood immediately flew away and his chest was blocked.
Does she also regard him as a foreigner? From now on, everything will be far away from him?
