New ink fragrance in old times
Chapter 96 I think I've seen her somewhere
"Sanlang is really considerate. Brother is fine. He's just a little distracted by all the things going on at home lately. Today we're here to attend our cousin Shen's first birthday party, so we should be happy."
Lin Mo nodded, but there was still a trace of doubt in his heart.
He secretly glanced at Old Mrs. Lin and saw that she was looking at him and his elder brother with loving eyes.
The crowd gradually calmed down, and an old man with white hair and beard, and vigorous spirit, slowly walked into the crowd's sight. He smiled and said in a loud voice:
"Thank you all for taking the time to attend my great-grandson's first birthday party. Today is not only a happy occasion for my son's family, but also a day of celebration for our entire Shen family. May this little life be blessed by you all, grow up healthily, and have a bright future."
The guests stood up one after another, bowed and congratulated each other. The scene was warm and lively.
Old Madam Shen was dressed in gorgeous clothes and had a kind face. She stood with Old Man Shen beside the carefully decorated venue for the one-year-old ceremony, her eyes full of expectation and love for the child.
The auspicious time had arrived, and with the sound of a clear gong, the ceremony officially began. The eldest grandson's wife of the Shen family gently carried the little boy to the edge of a carpet covered with various items.
The little guy was wearing a brand new red coat embroidered with auspicious patterns, and a small hat embroidered with gold thread with a "Fu" character in the center, which made him look even more pink and cute, just like the boy in the New Year pictures.
On the carpet, various items for the "Zhuazhou" celebration are placed: there are the four treasures of the study, which symbolize profound knowledge; there are abacus and silver, which indicate good business and abundant wealth; there are also weapon toys, which suggest that one may become a military general in the future and defend the country.
There are also books, flutes, small medicine bottles, etc., each of which carries the elders' beautiful vision for their children's future.
Encouraged by his parents, the little boy opened his eyes wide with curiosity and waved his hands in the air, seeming to be curious about everything around him.
He first reached out and touched the exquisite brush, which caused everyone to whisper, as if it indicated that the child would have great literary talent in the future; but in the blink of an eye, he was attracted by the glittering golden ingots next to him. As soon as his little hand touched it, his eyes were immediately hooked by the small sword in the distance, and his little face was full of hesitation.
"Oh, look at this child. He touched the brush as soon as he stretched out his little hand. He will definitely be a scholar with great literary talent in the future!" said an old lady with a kind face and a smile.
"Yes, but this ingot is also very dazzling. The young master's hand reached out unconsciously. It seems that he is a lucky child!" A young lady next to her joked, causing a burst of laughter.
"Haha, and that little sword over there, our young master is proficient in both civil and military skills!" A sturdy guest laughed loudly, obviously very satisfied with the young master's performance.
When the eldest grandson's wife of the Shen family heard these words, the smile on her face deepened.
Just as everyone was holding their breath, their hearts filled with curiosity and anticipation, speculating which object the young master would ultimately choose as a sign of his future, an unexpected dramatic scene quietly unfolded.
The young master seemed to suddenly realize that he was playing a special game, and his eyes flashed with cunning and mischief.
He began to run towards every item on the carpet with purpose, and every time he approached one, the guests around him couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.
But then, the young master threw it casually, and it drew a graceful arc in the air and landed outside the carpet.
In the end, almost every item on the carpet was tried one by one, but none of them was truly "caught".
The atmosphere suddenly became a little awkward, and the guests looked at each other, feeling both amused and a little embarrassed.
Lin Mo suppressed his laughter: This child is really brave and fearless, and has a bit of the bravery of a little brother.
puff~
A chuckle broke the delicate balance.
Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and saw a cute little girl about three years old wearing a red jacket embroidered with gold. Her bright big eyes sparkled with innocence and her innocent laughter instantly attracted everyone's attention.
The sudden laughter made the originally slightly awkward atmosphere even more subtle. The guests in the yard looked at each other, but they couldn't help but be infected by the childish innocence, and the corners of their mouths gradually rose.
Lin Mo: "Amazing, my little sister, you did something I dared not do."
Lin Sixuan suddenly spoke, breaking the deadlock.
"Everyone, please listen to me." Although Lin Sixuan's voice was a little childish, it was extremely clear and powerful.
"The young man we met today, though young, possesses extraordinary courage and insight. He maintains his childlike innocence in the face of so many treasures. His courage and curiosity are truly rare. Though he is young, I believe he will achieve extraordinary things in the future. Perhaps he will become a prodigy, a master of both civil and military skills, and a master of all eighteen martial arts."
As soon as he said this, the guests looked at him with surprise and approval. They had never expected that an eleven or twelve-year-old child could have such unique insights.
The guests nodded in agreement.
"Oh, look at this young master, he is so smart, he wants to try every item!" A lady dressed in brocade laughed softly, her eyes full of pampering.
"Yes, this child will definitely be an extraordinary person in the future. His mind is so active that he is not comparable to ordinary people." An old man with white hair and beard next to him stroked his beard, with a gleam of approval in his eyes.
"But then again, this ceremony of grabbing the first month of the lunar year has been carried out since ancient times for good luck. Who can tell whether it is true or false?" Another young scholar said playfully, waving his folding fan, causing people around him to laugh.
Although the "game" between the young master and the treasure has not ended, Lin Sixuan's words have successfully diverted the guests' attention from embarrassment and refocused them on the innocence and hope.
Lin Mo once again refreshed his understanding of Lin Dalang. In his heart, Lin Mo silently gave a thumbs up, "You are the brave one."
In this harmonious and slightly joyful atmosphere, the little girl who laughed out loud before laughed again, and this time her laughter was more unrestrained.
However, although the laughter was beautiful, it seemed to be drowned out by the compliments from the people around, like a breeze in the afternoon, blowing gently but quickly dissipating into the air.
Lin Mo's eyes were involuntarily attracted by this sudden innocent laughter. He looked in the direction of the sound and saw the little girl standing there with an innocent smile on her face and excitement in her eyes.
At this moment, Lin Mo felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity. He looked at the little girl carefully, thinking to himself, "Where have I seen her before? This feeling is so familiar, but I can't remember the specific scene for the moment."
He frowned slightly, trying to search for the vague figure in his memory.
Just as Lin Mo was immersed in his own thoughts, a sudden thought flashed through his mind like lightning:
