Mother Xu followed Fu Bo through the hall and through the garden to the west wing. Quietly along the road, only lanterns and candles hung under the eaves of the corridor flickered to illuminate the way. There were no servant girls or even a rough envoy.

She immediately sank her face and was not worried. She thought that she had come all the way from Hedong to Nanxun county. If she said that the prayer post had left early in the morning, she met obstacles and wasted time on the road, but she was not such a poor person. There were so few people in other hospitals of the Pei family that she didn't even have a girl to sweep the floor and serve tea?

She asked.

"Hehe, today the young master held a lantern riddle party to let the servant girls and women who didn't go home to reunite with their relatives get together for the festival, which also reflects the scene of today's happy moon." Fu Bo replied with a smile, "I also joined in the fun and won two tangerines and a pot of osmanthus wine."

Speaking of it, Fubo was complacent, happy at the moment when he solved the lantern riddle, and his sense of achievement after receiving the prize continued until now. He was really happy tonight, or he wouldn't take the initiative to reveal it to her when his old friend first arrived. He was eager to share his joy with mother Xu.

"Nonsense!" Mother Xu stopped, stood up in Emei and stood in front of Uncle Fu with her hips on her hips. "There are rules in other hospitals. The young master is naughty by nature. Since you are the housekeeper next to him, you should restrain the young master well, otherwise the wife will not be peaceful under the nine springs! Quickly take me to the laoshizi lantern riddle meeting. One by one, they neglect their duties and have to be punished! "

Fubo's good mood disappeared. He hated his quick mouth and said what lantern riddles would be in front of Xu Niang.

Xu Niang was invited by the girl's family to be the young master's nurse. She was an outsider, not a knowledgeable one. She had a crooked heart. When the young master was young, she didn't feel it. When he grew up and the rumors came out, her attitude gradually changed. Everyone followed suit, obeyed the girl, and turned around, which made people really dislike it.

"You must be tired when you just arrived. Please follow me this way." Fuber ignored her words and asked her to go to the west wing.

Three autumn Guizi and the west chamber are two directions, far apart. No matter how noisy she is, she won't disturb the lantern riddle party.

Xu's mother is used to treating her with dignity. In the past, she was a servant with Fu Bo, who was lower than him and could only be sent by him. However, after all these years in Wei's house, she rested in Chuang Tzu and seemed to be a master. She had long forgotten her dignity and inferiority. Besides, she was Pei Shuo's nurse. Anyone who saw her had to respect her. Fu Bo ignored her, and the day's troubles broke out at this time

"Well, Pei Fu, you turned a deaf ear to my words. I'm the young master's nurse. The young master has to respect me. What are you?"

In that compartment, the lantern riddle will come to an end. Shake Cui took a fruit lamp for a Yao. The exquisite fruit lamp also exudes fresh fruit fragrance. She threw her origami lantern out of the sky. One hand held the fruit lamp and the other hand waved the flame stick. She told the servant girls that she smiled and walked to the urging lotus yard.

"Sister Sheng Xiang, I'll count your gifts today." Asbestos envied.

The fragrant oranges were packed in colorful silk woven bags. They were heavy. According to the number of moon cakes taken by other servant girls, she won a box and came back to form a seven-star moon companion. Ah Yao began to pack them. Although the box looked strange and unexpectedly beautiful.

The reward of the lantern riddle Club depends on their strength. If they can't guess the lantern riddle, others have nothing to say, but the lantern riddle club won't let the servant girl who can't guess come back empty handed. Everyone is happy to carry a lantern.

Sheng Xiang said, "asbestos, you're not bad. You carry so many lanterns."

"My sisters are good at guessing riddles. I really can't. I haven't guessed it for a long time." Ah Yao also said.

"The girl is still young, but you guessed one Huanhua paper and two quicksand paper. It's very powerful. How many words have you recognized, girl?" Shaking Cui smiled and accompanied ah Yao and Pei Shuo all the way. She picked up the paper notes on the lantern and read them. This is a 7-year-old girl.

"I haven't recognized it yet." Yao said modestly, "can you read or write a lot of words?"

Several servant girls surrounded ah Yao and walked through the garden stepping on small stones. A quarrel came from the corridor.

"Shh! Come on! " Yinzhu raised her fingers to silence people, put down the palace lantern, walked lightly with her skirt, peeped on the rocks, turned back and motioned to her little friends to let them pass.

Other servant girls also gathered the lanterns in a similar way, carrying skirts and looking for a secret place to cover them in the mountains and rocks. A Yao put down the fruit lamp, but it didn't seem very suitable to put the flame stick on the ground, so she had to continue to carry it in her hand.

The voice of a man and a woman.

More excited are the burning gossip hearts of the servant girls.

"Who did you say it would be? It's so late. "

"The man's figure is very similar to that of Fubo. I can't find several similar figures in the whole house."

"It's Fubo!"

"Who is the woman next to fuber?"

A Yao also lay on the rocks and listened to the big sister above.

The people in the corridor were still arguing. The woman in the stone blue cloak pestered fuber and talked about whether the lantern riddle society should be. The woman's thoughts were all in front of Fubo. She didn't notice that there were several servant girls nearby peeping at her.

In the past, it would have been discovered that a Yao had a flame stick in her hand, but today, the moon is bright and the stars are sparse, other hospitals are decorated with lanterns, and all kinds of palace lanterns and lanterns are hung on the eaves of the corridor. The lights are reflected on the pink wall.

Naturally, the spark on the other side of the rock was ignored.

Several servant girls frowned and Yinzhu said, "who is this woman? It's annoying to point fingers and feet."

"That is, when it's her turn to speak at the riddle party that the young master decided to hold for us, even guests shouldn't speak like this. It's impolite."

The ten year old servant girl didn't have so many worries. She said something directly without hiding her disgust for mother Xu over there.

Shaking Cui whispered, "well, we have to go back. We have to drop the keys in each yard. It will be late if we don't go back."

Yes!

After shaking Cui's reminder, she looked up and saw the mid moon. Several servant girls crept back.

After listening to them all the time, ah Yao didn't notice that the flame stick in her hand had burned to the end. Her fingertips suddenly felt hot. She threw out the flame stick with a "ah" sound and hurriedly blew her hand.

"Are you okay?" Yaocui and Shengxiang circle around one after another, grab a Yao's hand and look through it. Yinzhu Shimian trots back to a Yao with the lantern and raises it to illuminate yaocui's fragrance.

With the candlelight and moonlight, a Yao's finger belly was red and almost dripping blood.

Shaking Cui said, "my fingers are red. I have to deal with blisters quickly."

The noise here interrupted mother Xu's incessant accusations in the corridor. Fubo also looked at the rocks. Mother Xu said first:

"Who! Come out! "
