Chapter 461
This year's Mid-Autumn Festival, because the palace was held and the Chen family had not fully recovered, the few families did not make an appointment to watch the lanterns in Xiangmanlou like in previous years.
However, no matter how big the palace banquet is, it has nothing to do with young people. Even Lin Hongfei, who has been in the officialdom for three years, has not reached the level of attending such palace banquets. Therefore, the younger generation still made an appointment to watch the lanterns on Taiping Street like in previous years.
Because An Huijuan was pregnant and had a big reaction during pregnancy, Lin Hongfei didn't plan to go out, but just wanted to stay in the mansion to accompany An Huijuan.
But Xiao Anan learned that his aunt and uncle were even Lin Ye, who was only two years older than him, had to go out to watch the lanterns, so he was clamoring to go and watch the lanterns together.
Xiao Anan is the most active age. Although he listens to Lin Wan very much on weekdays, Lin Wan dares not take her to the bustle of Taiping Street in such a lively occasion today.
Seeing that the appointment was approaching, Xiao Anan hugged Lin Wan's legs tightly and kept not letting go, which made everyone laugh and cry. Finally, Luo said something. Lin Hongfei had to pick up Xiao Anan who was playing rogue with a little annoyed, gently patted Xiao Anan's fat little butt, and said something to An Huijuan who was smiling at everyone with apologetically, and then he went to Taiping Street with his brothers and sisters to celebrate the fun.
Although there were no elders watching the lanterns together this time, in order to facilitate everyone to have a place to stay, I left a nice private room on the third floor of Xiangmanlou.
Because of Xiao An'an, when the brothers and sisters of Zhennan Hou Mansion arrived at Xiangman Tower, the three brothers of the Ye family, Mao Yanxia, and Mao Yingjun and his wife had already sat in the private room and waited for them for a while. They had to make some noises, and Ye Zhan even made a noise to ask for a drink.
Xiangmanlou is an industry under the name of the second house of Zhennan Hou Mansion, and the most desirable thing is wine.
Lin Wan glanced at Ye Zhan, who had the biggest voice, and then looked at Mao Yanxia, who was following Ye Zhan with excitement, and said with a smile: "It's not impossible for Brother Zhan to punish my second brother for wine, but you have to take over the task of taking care of Xiao An'an first."
When he heard that he had to take care of Xiao An'an throughout the whole process, Ye Zhan suddenly became depressed, and Mao Yanxia also became timid at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Although Xiao Anan always looks well-behaved in front of others, those who are familiar with him know that he is naughty and active, and even know that he is helpless and is crazy. Today, Taiping Street is bustling with people, and Xiao Anan has already been unable to control himself and is ready to move.
Except for Lin Hongfei, the father-in-law, who can resist this kid?
Besides, the elders are not here today, and they are still thinking of leaving the large army and acting alone.
If they brought Xiao Anan with them, how could they act alone?
However, even though Ye Zhan entered the officialdom, he was still a bit wilted. If he couldn't drink, he would use tea instead of wine. He forced the brothers from Zhennan Hou's mansion to accompany Lin Hongfei to drink a full cup of tea.
Just let everyone drink tea, Lin Wan will not stop it. Everyone was eating a bit greasy at the family dinner before they came out, and drinking a cup of tea just relieves the greasyness.
After some noise, it was time for the lights to be on. Lin Ye and Xiao Anan were lying on the windowsill excitedly clapping their hands and cheering.
Lin Ye is almost six years old, but he has some memories of such a scene where lanterns are blooming. However, Xiao Anan is not yet able to remember the age of long time. Even after watching it, he will forget it soon. When he sees it again, he will feel a brand new feeling, and naturally he is more excited than anyone else.
After the lights are on, Taiping Street is even more crowded and bustling.
Although the view of the lights in this private room was particularly good, it still couldn't stop Xiao An'an from going to the street to have a live tour.
Of course, it is not only Xiao Anan who wants to go to the street to watch the lanterns and play. Lin Ye, who was staring at Lin Hongxuan, is already eager to try it out.
Lin Hongxuan's own child is still young, so it is naturally impossible for him to come out with him.
Originally, Lin Hongxuan took this rare opportunity to accompany his wife, but Tang gave Lin Ye to him.
This is also impossible. During the festival, Lin Wenjie and Lin Hongyun, the father and son, either stay in the Xishan camp or patrol the city. Lin Hongyun naturally could not take care of Lin Ye.
Fortunately, Lin Ye is calmer than Xiao Anan, and he is now six years old. He is more sensible than Xiao Anan and is naturally better to teach him.
Everyone walked out, but Lin Wan couldn't sit up. Although Ye Shen stood up with everyone, he saw that Lin Wan was not moving, so he naturally did not go out with everyone. The meaning was very obvious, and he would be wherever Lin Wan was.
"Wanwan, don't you go to the street to guess riddles?" Lin Jing, who had already walked to the door, finally found that Lin Wan had not followed. She stopped and looked back at Lin Wan, who was still sitting upright, and asked in surprise.
Lin Wan shook her head: "I always watch lanterns and guess riddles every year. There are always a few patterns in lanterns, and even the riddles have not changed. I really feel bored. The streets are crowded with people, so it is better to sit here quietly and watch the lamps."
Lin Jing rolled her eyes at Lin Wan, raised her chin at Ye Shen with a point of view, turned to Lin Shu beside her and walked out while complaining to Lin Wan: "Our third sister's ideas are always so different, they are really elegant people! Let's hurry up and stay away from this elegant people! Go to the street to watch our excitement and be our ordinary people."
Xiao Anan, who was already anxious, pulled out of the elegant room, Lin Hongfei turned around and looked at Lin Wan without saying anything. Then he bent down and picked up Xiao Anan and followed everyone downstairs. He just turned around and threw himself towards Ye Shen, but the look he looked at was full of warning.
Soon, only Lin Wan and Ye Shen were left in the private room. Even the maids and servants who followed them out today were bombarded by the two of them and asked them to watch the lights.
However, Chuncao insisted on staying outside the private room, and she could not give her girl the chance to be told.
Even though he knew that Lin Wan had always been introverted and reserved, Lin Wan was still a little girl in Ye Shen's heart. No girl didn't like to go to the street to watch the lights. She looked at Lin Wan with a smile and said, "Wanwan really doesn't plan to go shopping on the street?"
Lin Wan nodded, pointed to the chair beside her and signaled Ye Shen to sit down: "Brother, I don't know. Although Wanwan also loves the excitement, she doesn't like the feeling of crowding people. Besides, sitting in front of the window and watching the lights is a bit interesting. Looking from here from afar, Taiping Street is like a long dragon entrenched in the capital. Brother, you might as well close your eyes and listen quietly to the voices outside the window, and you should have more feelings."
With Lin Wan's voice, Ye Shen either looked out the window, or closed his eyes and listened quietly to the excitement outside, and he had different feelings.
It’s just that Ye Shen’s perception is that Lin Wan, who shouldn’t have appeared in such a young mind.
If he had not been a human being for two lifetimes, he would have been very unlikely to have the current understanding at this age. Then why did Lin Wan have such an understanding at such a young age?
Ye Shen had already tried Lin Wan in a few years ago and had already confirmed that Lin Wan was not the same as him for two lives.
So, all the unreasonable situations that happened to Lin Wan were naturally attributed to Lin Wan's childhood experiences, and she felt more pity for Lin Wan.
