The bright moon is in the sky, and the silver glow is pouring on the sparkling water, like countless broken silver floating on it, shining with dazzling light and complementing the stars in the sky.
The light night fog rises like mist and clouds. Under the night light, the entire water surface is vast and beautiful.
There is only an exquisite four-cornered pavilion on the second floor of the boat. There is a table of four immortals in the middle, and four people can sit around the table.
Luo Huaizhou shook his folding fan for a while, not knowing what he was thinking, his mind wandering.
Shi Manzi was filling them with hot tea from the tea cauldron on the stove. Although the maid had given her a cloak before coming up, the pavilion on the top of the building had no window lattice to block it, and there was a chill when the river breeze blew. She glanced at the folding fan in Luo Huaizhou's hand, couldn't help but shrink her neck, and gathered the cloak on her shoulders.
The sound of singing and dancing of silk and bamboo could be heard in the distance behind her. Lin Wanwan folded her hands on her chin, leaned sideways on the railing and looked at the long street in the distance. She could faintly see the crowds of people everywhere, and the streets were lit up with lanterns, making it very lively.
"What, you want to see the lanterns?" Su Jingqian watched her stare blankly at the long street in the distance, and handed her a sweet-scented osmanthus candy cake.
Lin Wanwan took the candy cake, took a bite, and rolled her eyes at him angrily. If it weren't for him, she would be visiting the night market with Mei Niang and her twin sisters.
Little did he know that in Su Jingqian's eyes, she looked like a rabbit biting a carrot, very cute. He couldn't help but smile and said: "If you want to see the lanterns, I will accompany you to watch them all during the Lantern Festival."
"Lantern Festival?" Luo Huaizhou, who suddenly came back to his senses, asked with great interest, "Where are you going to play during the Lantern Festival?"
Su Jingqian glanced at him casually, "Aren't you going to the palace during the Lantern Festival?"
As soon as these words came out, it was like a basin of cold water was poured in Luo Huaizhou's face, immediately extinguishing the excitement in his eyes. Sometimes he sighed, sometimes beat his chest and feet, struggled for a long time, and said with a mournful face: "I don't want to enter the palace. I also want to go see the lanterns with you."
"Why, there are no lanterns for you to see in the palace?" Su Jingqian raised his lips and said with a half-smile.
Luo Huaizhou curled his lips and complained: "That's different. You don't know how boring it is to watch lanterns with them. You might as well read a storybook."
"The storybook?" Lin Wanwan's eyes suddenly lit up, and a look of surprise flashed across her eyes. Then she turned around, looked at him expectantly, and asked, "You also read the storybook?"
Seeing her interested look, Luo Huaizhou touched his chin and said thoughtfully, "Could it be that..."
Lin Wanwan looked happy and asked tentatively: "Where are the ancient and modern generals?"
Luo Huaizhou immediately shook his head and continued: ""A pile of weeds in the barren grave"!"
Lin Wanwan's starry eyes became brighter, as if the night fog was thinned a bit, "Expert?"
Luo Huaizhou's eyes immediately burst out with a light, and he sighed: "My close friend!"
The two of them smiled happily, and their eyes were full of surprise. Just like Boya and Ziqi, they felt so excited that they had found a close friend. They were so excited that they wanted to shake hands and hug each other immediately.
Shi Manzi, who was sitting next to them, was confused and seemed to have no idea what they were talking about. However, looking at the mysterious look of the two people, it seemed that they were communicating with some kind of code.
Su Jingqian sighed very softly, closed his eyes slightly, bent his index finger and put it on his forehead, looking very speechless and helpless.
Luo Huaizhou asked Lin Wanwan in high spirits: "Have you watched "Pick a Wild Flower" recently?"
Lin Wanwan shook her head at him and said, "The plot has no logic. I advise you to give up."
"Fortunately, I didn't watch it." Luo Huaizhou breathed a sigh of relief, thought for a moment, and then asked, "What about "What Year Is This Eve"?"
"I read it. It's a good book. The story has ups and downs, and the hero and heroine besiege the city for love. It's so touching!"
"Really? I just started watching. Please tell me what happened next?"
Lin Wanwan glanced at him and immediately reminded: "If I told you what happened next in advance, wouldn't this book be meaningless?"
Luo Huaizhou nodded in agreement, "You're right, it's more interesting to read it yourself. Tell me what other books you've read that you think are good, and I'll ask someone to search for them tomorrow."
"..."
It was obvious that Lin Wanwan and Luo Huaizhou were very similar on this point. When they talked about these words, their eyes shone with excitement, and their relationship seemed to suddenly become extremely familiar.
After chatting indifferently for a while, she realized that she seemed to be neglecting the people next to her. Lin Wanwan turned her head to Shi Manzi and asked, "Have you read the storybook?"
Shi Manzi shook her head, with a hint of curiosity and a hint of expectation in her gentle eyes, "Can you...can you tell me?"
Lin Wanwan smiled sweetly at her, her whole face shining brightly, "Of course, I will tell you something I wrote myself, how about it?"
Su Jingqian's hand holding the tea cup suddenly paused, and then he lowered his eyes calmly. His long eyelashes covered up the growing smile in his peach blossom eyes.
Luo Huaizhou glanced at him suspiciously, then stared at Lin Wanwan with interest, expressing that he was looking forward to her story.
Lin Wanwan took a sip of tea in a dignified manner, moistened her throat, and began to speak vividly.
The story seemed very exciting, Shi Manzi was stunned for a while, nodding frequently, and Luo Huaizhou clapped his hands from time to time.
When she talks about -
"At this time, a man was riding a horse, pulling out the bow string in his hand, shooting several arrows, and swinging a spear..."
A lot of the tea in the teacup in Su Jingqian's hand was knocked out, and he quickly lowered his eyes.
Lin Wanwan cast a resentful look at him and continued to the other two people indifferently: "The man broke through many obstacles and came to the woman he loved. He saw that the woman's hands and feet were tied behind a chair. Although she couldn't move, she finally saw the man she longed for. She choked up and couldn't help but shed tears. She wiped the tears on her cheeks..."
"Wait a minute." Luo Huaizhou looked at Lin Wanwan in confusion and asked curiously, "Aren't this woman's hands tied behind the chair? Then how did she wipe away her tears?"
"Uh, this..." Lin Wanwan blinked, obviously confused by the question.
She glanced at Su Jingqian unconsciously, and saw that he was supporting his chin with one hand and staring at her with interest. There was a clear sense of gloating in his smiling eyes.
She gave him a sharp look and was thinking hard about how to fix it when she heard him say softly: "What a fuss." Then he added slowly, "Didn't you hear she said that man can shoot arrows and swing a gun at the same time? ?”
"Cough...cough..." Luo Huaizhou almost spit out the tea he just took in, and instantly choked and turned red.
Shi Manzi also covered her mouth with a handkerchief, lowered her eyes, her shoulders were shaking slightly, and her smile was obvious.
Su Jingqian looked at Luo Huaizhou with disgust, as if he had never seen the world.
Luo Huaizhou looked at Su Jingqian distressedly, thinking that Xiao Yuewan had often told him such stories before, so he was immune to all poisons?
"Your Highness, we're here." At this time, the guard ran up and reported to Luo Huaizhou.
"I know, let's go to the island... Hahaha..." Luo Huaizhou's eyes were filled with water, and he finally finished speaking seriously. Thinking of the story again, he finally couldn't help laughing and bent over.
Lin Wanwan glared at them both fiercely, picked up Shi Manzi and walked away angrily.
