Reborn female match

Chapter 22 Lanterns

Although An Tong's desire to not marry Jiang Sheng'an is very urgent, she also knows that this is not a very good opportunity.After all, An's family has just settled the matter of renting tenants, and Jiang's family can't get much benefit from An's family.

Anyway, it is unlikely that she will marry Jiang Shengan within this year, so there is no need to worry.Because this year is her father An Lizheng's birth year, An's family in the previous life used this as an excuse to push the marriage to Chengkang five years.

And An Tong was also thinking that it was about time for her to tell Xu Xiangru that she would divorce Jiang Sheng'an.In this way, Xu Xiangru knew that she had no intentions of Jiang Sheng'an, and the An's family would not become an obstacle preventing them from being together.

An Tong said that she was going to find a good day, but before that, she still wanted to have a good Lantern Festival.

She led Ren Cuirou to the bamboo grove and cut two bamboos, and asked someone to cut them into strips, and immediately set up lanterns at home.

If you want to tie the lanterns well, you still need a person with ingenuity and dexterity.

An Tong was pricked several times by thin thorns when he was just playing with the bamboo strips. Finally, with many cuts and punctures on his fingers, he made a barely visible lantern frame.

After pasting it with paper, she satisfactorily took the lantern to Xu Xiangru to show off.

"How about this lantern?"

Xu Xiangru glanced at it: "It's quite unique. Did you burn it for your ancestors? But it's not yet the Ghost Festival."

An Tong was annoyed: "What kind of eyes do you have? This is for you!"

Xu Xiangru was surprised: "A white lantern?"

"...not dyed yet."

Xu Xiangru was thoughtful: "Is it also your heart?"

An Tong silently took back the lantern: "I'll give it to you after I dye it."

Xu Xiangru reached for the lantern and asked, "Do you still have the bamboo strips?"

"Do what?"

"Teach you how to tie a lantern." Xu Xiangru said seriously.

"You think I'm not good-looking?"

Xu Xiangru asked back, "What do you think?"

An Tong gritted his teeth: "You are cruel!"

Even though An Tong and Xu Xiangru had settled their differences, they never shook hands openly to make peace. An Tong couldn't hold back his heart of finding fault. Seeing that Xu Xiangru was so skillful in making lanterns, he said: " Are you not afraid of being stabbed because of your rough skin and thick flesh?"

Xu Xiangru paused, An Tong's words reminded them of their tit-for-tat past.No wonder she felt a little uncomfortable recently, it turned out that An Tong didn't bother her anymore!

No one is fighting with her, although she is happy and quiet, but it is less fun, isn't it?

"Miss An is afraid of being stabbed, not necessarily because of her thin skin and tender flesh."

An Tong really wanted Xu Xiangru to see her graceful figure, and let her touch and feel the tenderness of her skin!

She admits that she is a little darker than the ladies who stay behind closed doors, but since the beginning of winter, she has turned white again!

"It's not because of my thin skin and tender flesh. You see, when I pierced that lantern, my fingers were full of thorns." An Tong stretched out his hand and put it in front of Xu Xiangru, almost breathing on her face.

Xu Xiangru grabbed her hand to prevent himself from being beaten in vain.She squinted her eyes and found that An Tong's fingers were indeed red, and one of them had a thorn visible to the naked eye, so she stretched out her hand to pull it out.

An Tong's finger was pinched in her hand, and the thorn made her finger hurt and itchy: "Hey, it hurts... Haha, it's so itchy... Oh, be careful, you hurt me!"

When she came back from the outside and heard that An Tong was piecing up lanterns, An Li was going to see what she was up to. An Li was hearing An Tong's unexplained voices.

An Li was thinking of something, his mind was blank, and he rushed over immediately, and yelled: "What are you doing? Hurry up and stop—"

After tossing for a while, Xu Xiangru pulled out the thorn.An Tong withdrew her hand and stroked it, and found that there was no strange feeling in her fingers. Before she had time to be happy, she saw her father appearing angrily.

An Lizheng found out that it was An Tong and Xu Xiangru who were staying in the garden, and when he looked at the bamboo strips and lantern frames around them, he understood everything.

He blushed, met An Tong's and Xu Xiangru's suspicious eyes, and cleared his throat: "So it's Tong'er and Xu's little lady!"

"Otherwise? Dad, I just heard you yelling, what's the matter?" An Tong asked.

When An Tong mentioned this, An Lizheng became even more shameless. He pretended to be calm: "It's nothing. Dad heard you screaming for pain and thought you were injured."

"It's just being pricked by the thin thorns of bamboo strips. Although it's not a big injury, it still hurts."

An Lizheng seemed to have found something to say, and he straightened his expression again: "It's good for someone to set up the lantern. Do you want any shape? Why do you stick it yourself!"

"Father, think about it. At that time, the whole house will be filled with lanterns made by myself. Wouldn't it be beautiful?"

An Li was looking at the only white lantern covered with paper, and the corners of his mouth twitched. He really didn't want to hit An Tong: If the house was really filled with such lanterns by then, others might think that An's family was having a funeral.

Li Jinxiu was wandering around, when he heard An Lizheng's voice, he also hurried over.

She heard from An Tong the reason for An Lizheng's yelling, and when she turned her head, she saw An Lizheng's embarrassed smile, and she understood it, and immediately dragged him away angrily: "You stinking shameless, I have no face No skin, how can you think about these things in front of your children?"

An Tong looked at them, full of doubts: "What is my father thinking?"

Xu Xiangru looked back at An Lizheng and the others leaving, and when he heard An Tong's curious question, he said, "That's your father, Miss An doesn't even know what he's thinking, how can I, an outsider, know?"

At the end, she added: "Your Father Lingtang, there are quite a lot of tricks."

After being taught by Xu Xiangru, An Tong later brought Ren Cuirou into the lantern-tiing team, and she and Shao Ru were responsible for pasting the lanterns with dyed paper.

She also drew some pictures on the paper, or wrote some words.Although she doesn't like piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, after all, she has been learning since she was a child, so her handwriting is still eye-catching, while her paintings are so-so.

And Shao Ru cut some paper-cuts and pasted them on it.

It has to be said that Shao Ru was ingenious and handy, and the paper-cuts she cut out were quite exquisite. After pasting them on the paper, the original monotonous lanterns suddenly became more beautiful.

"Shao Ru, your hands are really clever!" An Tong praised.

Shao Ru smiled shyly, asked An Tong for bamboo strips, and joined the ranks of making lanterns.

In the end, they made more than thirty lanterns of different shapes. An Tong asked Shao Ru and Ren Cuirou to choose a pair each, and gave Xu Xiangru ten more, and she planned to hang the rest in and out of her yard.

"Why ten?" Xu Xiangru asked.

"Perfect in every way, in pairs!"

"But there seems to be an extra lantern in your place." Xu Xiangru reminded.

"If there is one more, come out! Don't look at it alone, maybe it likes to be alone."

Xu Xiangru was amused by this statement, she grinned and said, "How do you know it likes to be alone?" Then she rowed a lantern to An Tong's side, "Maybe it is waiting for another lantern?"

When Xu Xiangru smiled from the bottom of his heart, his peach blossom eyes were slightly curved, and Xia Sanbai, who was originally indifferent, became romantic because of this smile.

Even though An Tong was unwilling, she felt that her almond eyes were very bright and energetic, but she had to admit that after matching Xu Xiangru's overall facial features, most men in the world prefer her face.

Thinking that such a person actually has eye disease, it's not good to look at someone, but Jiang Sheng'an!

Under the circumstances of "I wanted to tell Xu Xiangru what she was thinking, but I was not ready to say it now", she said regretfully: "You have a pair of beautiful eyes, but your eyes are not very good."

A hint of confusion flashed in Xu Xiangru's heart, he pursed his lips, and said after a while: "Miss An has good eyes, can you tell me what you saw?"

"..." An Tong was stunned, but her reaction speed was also fast, pointing to the white lantern that was pierced at the beginning, "There is still a lantern there, so there is no extra lantern."

Xu Xiangru picked up a lantern and compared it with the white lantern, and said, "But don't you think this white lantern is not suitable for other lanterns?"

An Tong was worried that she would not have the opportunity to talk about her marriage contract with Jiang Sheng'an, but Xu Xiangru's words gave her inspiration and opportunity.After sending Shao Ru and Ren Cuirou away, she grabbed the white lantern and said with a smile, "This is me, and that is Jiang Sheng'an."

She was already dead, and it seemed that there was nothing wrong with referring to herself as a white lantern, which was regarded as an ominous one.

After all, in order to deal with An Tong back then, Xu Xiangru also took the initiative to understand a lot of An Tong's character and temperament, and she also understood An Tong's thoughts to some extent, and soon understood what An Tong meant.But she didn't speak immediately, but waited for the next sentence.

An Tong said: "You don't think it's appropriate, do you?"

"What I'm saying is that it doesn't fit well with other lanterns."

An Tong didn't care about these things, and there was no one else around at the moment, so she took the opportunity to express her position, so that Xu Xiangru would not think that she was pestering Jiang Sheng'an in the future.

"Actually, I only have a brother-sister relationship with Jiang Sheng An, and now even the brother-sister relationship no longer exists. I just want to be a stranger to him."

Although Xu Xiangru had restrained her expression, she still couldn't help raising her eyebrows to express her surprise.However, she understood why An Tong was not only not angry, but rather happy on the premise that she misunderstood her having a tryst with Jiang Sheng'an.

"It's the order of the parents, but the words of the matchmaker. You already have a marriage contract, and you will get married sooner or later." Xu Xiangru said.

When An Tong's words came to his lips, he was a little hesitant. If Xu Xiangru told Jiang Sheng'an about An's family wanting to divorce, Jiang Sheng'an would definitely be happy.

But the Jiang family probably wouldn't care if Jiang Shengan and An Jiagao were unhappy, and the only ones who would become unhappy would be An Jia.

"You just need to understand that I have no plans for him." An Tong said earnestly.

Xu Xiangru thought for a while, and although she still didn't fully understand what An Tong meant, she still nodded in order to save face.

However, since An Tong has no interest in Jiang Sheng'an, then he must not care about his flirting with Shao Ru, right?She doesn't need to remind An Tong, after all, Shao Ru is the person by her side, how could An Tong not know about their strange behavior?
