This street is built next to the river, and the whole street is a place for eating, drinking and having fun. There are many small vendors setting up stalls on both sides of the street, which is very lively.

There is a restaurant with a good reputation beside the river street. Chen Yunjue reserved a high-class private room early in the morning. After arriving at the river street, Chen Yunjue led everyone to the private room of the restaurant.

Not long ago, when Chen Yunxian lent money to Chen Yun, Chen Yun still insisted that he had nothing to spend money on, but because of Chen Yunxian's tough attitude, he still accepted the money. Unexpectedly, it will only be a few days?He used it.

Since it is the busiest market in the capital, the asking price of the restaurant on this river street is not low. Fortunately, with the help of his eldest brother, Chen Yun has enough money to borrow, so that he will not be empty after eating a meal.

The private room is large, with two tables separated by a screen.

Chen Yun led his cousin Chen Yunheng and the two cousins ​​of the Song family to sit on the other side of the screen, while Song Yuting took Chen Yingying and Daiyu to sit on the other side of the screen.

In any case, to Daiyu, they were all outsiders, so naturally they couldn't have dinner at the same table.

Moreover, Chen Yunjuan's cousin also had to avoid suspicion with the Song family's cousin, and it was good to have separate tables for men and women.

Not long after entering the private room, the waiter came to serve the food.

Song Yuting looked at the dishes gradually filling the table, "Hey, they are all Jiangsu dishes."

"We are all from Jiangsu. The chef of this restaurant is from Jiangsu. He has excellent craftsmanship and has a first-class reputation on this river street. I have wanted to try it for a long time, but unfortunately I have never had time. I just came to enjoy the lanterns today. Come here to eat." Chen Yun explained by hearing Song Yuting's smiling voice on the other side of the screen.

Song Yuting smiled and said, "I didn't say anything, why did I explain so much?"

Chen Yun kept his mouth shut.

After the man and woman sat down separately, Chen Yingying and Daiyu took off the veil.

Chen Yingying is eleven this year, three or four years older than Daiyu, and taller in stature.

Yingying, just sounds like a gentle name like water.But it doesn't quite fit with Chen Yingying. Chen Yingying's character is not too strong.

But the appearance is very aggressive, it is the bright type, and it feels very difficult to mess with.

And Daiyu looks like that kind of weak Jiangnan woman.

When Chen Yingying was on the road, she kept thinking about Daiyu.

Nothing else, because she was sure that her cousin's appearance today was all for Miss Lin.

Song Yuting also noticed that Chen Yingying was looking at Daiyu. After all, there were only three of them at this table. Although it was a round table, it was one person and one party. She could see the expressions of the two of them clearly.

"Yu'er, let me introduce you. This is Chen Yingying, the daughter of the third wife of the Chen family. She is a few years older than you, so you can call her sister. They are all relatives, so there is no need to talk outside."

Song Yuting said and introduced to Chen Yingying, "This is the girl from Mrs. Lin's family. She is younger than you. You are the older sister. Take her more from now on."

Chen Yingying smiled slightly, "Aunt Song, this is the first time I've seen this sister Lin, she's so pretty, I'm so envious."

"What do you envy her for?" Song Yuting asked amusedly.

Chen Yingying touched her face, pretending to be self-pitying, "My mother always said that my face is too beautiful, and she said that I look like a person who is not comfortable in the room. I am not in the room. Is it because I look Can you tell the difference?"

"When did your mother say such a thing?" Song Yuting laughed.

Chen Yingying said, "Aunt Song naturally didn't know about it with me in private."

Song Yuting still laughed when she heard the words, "Okay, don't make trouble, let people see the joke."

Chen Yingying's mother, Qin Shi, and Song Yuting are handkerchief friends. They have always had a good relationship and love each other like sisters.After Qin married into the Chen family and became her cousin's sister-in-law, the relationship became even better.

Chen Yingying smiled at Daiyu and said, "I made my sister laugh."

Lin Daiyu shook her head, "Sister, you are welcome."

"Where is my sister from?" Chen Yingying got up and sat down beside Daiyu, asking her affectionately.

Lin Daiyu was a little unaccustomed to her changes, she was taken aback for a moment, and then said, "My family's ancestral home is Gusu."

"No wonder you say that we are all from Jiangsu." Chen Yingying laughed.

Lin Daiyu felt that what Chen Yingying said meant something.

But before she had time to think about it, Chen Yunjue's words came from the other side of the screen, "What are you chatting about, you can't eat or sleep. If you don't eat, the food will be completely cold, and you have to go to put the river lanterns on later, eat quickly. "

Hearing Chen Yunjue's urging, Chen Yingying confirmed her guess, and smiled more kindly at Daiyu.

Daiyu: "?"

"Eat quickly, Yun Yu is right, this dish won't taste good when it's cold." Song Yuting said.

Quiet in the room.

After dinner, the sky outside has completely darkened. Lanterns are hung everywhere on the street, and the river street is brightly lit.

Song Yuting and the three daughters put on their hats and left the restaurant.

Although he left, Chen Yunjuan has already booked this private room today, and he will not give this private room to anyone else until closing time.

Chen Yunheng protected Chen Yingying, the two cousins ​​of the Song family followed Song Yuting, Chen Yunjian followed Daiyu, and Fu Rong followed behind them.

There are sugar sellers, mask sellers, lanterns and river lanterns on the street, a lot of weird things.

Daiyu stopped in front of a stall selling lanterns and stared at a rabbit lantern.

"Want?" The rabbit lamp is indeed exquisitely made, no wonder the little girl couldn't move her feet after seeing it.

Daiyu lowered her eyes, "I like it."

Chen Yun felt that something was wrong with Daiyu's mood, so he paid for the rabbit lamp and handed it to her, "Buy it if you want it."

Daiyu looked at Chen Yunjue through the hood, but couldn't see anything clearly.

She pursed her lips, took the rabbit lamp, bought two more river lamps from the store, and went to the river to put the lamps together.

Others seemed to have gone to other stalls. The He Street was full of people, and they disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Chen Yunjue was not in a hurry, they were away from home, so naturally it was impossible for only a few people to follow them, but they didn't have all the close entourages.

The entire street along the river is very long, and there are many people putting on lights, but it is not crowded.

Chen Yunjue and Daiyu stood under the tree after setting off the lights, and did not wander around.

Daiyu has been staring at the rabbit lamp in her hand, Chen Yun couldn't hold it back, "Why do you keep staring at the lamp?"

"When I was very young, my parents took me and my brother out to play, and my mother bought him a rabbit lamp." Daiyu actually wanted it too, but she didn't ask.

Rabbits are regarded as auspicious things. In people's hearts, the rabbit lamp means auspiciousness and good luck. At that time, my brother's health was already very bad, so my mother bought the lamp for my brother with blessings.

It's a pity... my brother is still gone.

Chen Yun could still feel that Daiyu was very sad, he pursed his lips, he couldn't guess what Daiyu was thinking, and didn't know what happened in the past, so he could only sigh, "Then... I will give you a rabbit lamp every year from now on ?”

Daiyu couldn't help laughing, "How can you give a rabbit lamp every year?"

Seeing her smile, Chen Yun also smiled, "Of course it's not just the rabbit lamp, just tell me what you want, and I'll do my best to buy it for you."

Daiyu just laughed and didn't answer.

"Why don't you... go shopping again?" Chen Yun asked tentatively.

Daiyu nodded, and Chen Yun took Daiyu to continue shopping on He Street. He Street was very long, halfway through, Daiyu felt her legs ache, and Chen Yun took a lot of small things that Daiyu wanted.

"Can't walk anymore?" Chen Yun asked when she saw Daiyu stop.

Daiyu moved her feet, "Yes."

Chen Yun turned his head, "Qing Mo, come here."

Qing Mo is the servant brought out by Chen Yunjue today, he has been waiting far away, when he heard Chen Yunjue calling him, he rushed forward.

"Second Master."

Chen Yun excused, "Call for a sedan chair." He gave Qing Mo a silver ticket.

Qing Mo replied yes, turned around and walked away quickly.

Daiyu said, "Do you think I'm busy?" After walking a few steps, she was tired.

Chen Yun smiled, "What's the trouble? If it wasn't outside, I would carry you back."

He didn't recite it, but also for the sake of Daiyu's reputation.

Daiyu understood what he meant, and felt warm in her heart, "I always give you trouble."

"Why is it troublesome? Sister Lin is a fairy daughter, and it is my honor to serve you." Chen Yun said with a half-truth and half-fake smile.

Daiyu glared at him through the hood, "Spoof!"

Chen Yun laughed, the two talked and laughed, and after a short wait, Qing Mo called for a sedan chair, and Chen Yun let Daiyu get on the sedan chair.

When Daiyu got on the sedan chair, they returned to the restaurant.

Song Yuting and the others had already returned, and they were just watching the lanterns in the private room.

The river is full of river lanterns, far apart, it looks like a sea of ​​stars, very beautiful.

Chen Yunjue and Lin Daiyu came back alone, no one asked the reason.

No one is a fool.

Chen Yun didn't ask them to come out to see any river lanterns during the holidays before, but this time he invited them all.

Coincidentally, Song Yuting also brought her future stepdaughter with her.

Where in this world is there such a coincidence?

Today was enough fun, it was getting late, the group got into the carriage and prepared to go home.

First send Daiyu back to the Lin Mansion, then Song Yuting took her two nephews home, Chen Yun and the three of them did not follow to the Song House, but returned directly to the Chen House.

When I got home, it was already the second watch, and it was almost the third watch.

Chen Yun took a quick shower, changed into pajamas, and went to bed.

The next day, Chen Yun still practiced the body-building technique for an hour, then took a shower, changed clothes, had a meal, and set off for the academy.

When I arrived at the academy, it happened to be the time when my husband was in class.

When Shen Shi came home from school, Chen Yunxian came to him, "Did you have a good time last night?"

"It's quite happy..." Chen Yun borrowed a sentence, sat down at the table, and poured water for Chen Yunxian, "After my sister-in-law has given birth, my elder brother can also take my sister-in-law to play in He Street, it's really beautiful. "

"I heard from Ah Heng that you booked the private room upstairs in Sanxian Building yesterday?" Chen Yunxian said.

Chen Yun put down the kettle and nodded, "Only the upper-class private rooms have two tables, separated by a screen."

"I'm not here to question you." Chen Yunxian said amusedly, "I'm here to ask you if you have enough money to spend. The private room in Sanxian Building is not cheap. I heard that you even ordered a table of dishes. Their family You have ordered all the signature dishes."

The cost of this meal is estimated to be able to use up one-third of the money he stuffed last time.

"Enough is enough, enough, this year there are only Mid-Autumn Festival and Xiayuan Festival holidays, and there are only three days in total. These are enough." Chen Yun was afraid that he would not say enough, so Chen Yunxian stuffed him with a lot of money.

But obviously, when my brother stuffs you with money, it’s not that you say you have enough, but that your brother thinks you don’t have enough, and you just don’t have enough.

Before Chen Yunxian left, he left another wooden box for Chen Yun, and then left.

Chen Yun opened the box and counted, there were 1000 taels.

He gritted his teeth, and obviously asked him to study hard to take the imperial examination, but this way of raising him was clearly comparing with dudes.

No, those dudes, how could he be richer than him?
