106. Chapter 106(1/2)

During the Mid-Autumn Festival, compared with the lantern festival at night, the mooncakes during the day are not very attractive.

The red sun gradually turned west, and the Xu family had dinner early, locked the door of the house and walked towards the town together.

Amu was the happiest. He ran forward alone, ran so far before stopping, and waited for his relatives to catch up with him with a smile.

Xu Shouliang and Xu Huai followed behind, and Li led three girls in the middle.

There are not so many rules in the countryside, so girls can go out to see if there is any lively. Ningxiang needs to avoid getting engaged, but it is lively tonight. No one can see who doesn’t get close to him. Li felt sorry for her niece for four years in the Hou’s Mansion, so she specially proposed to let Ningxiang come out for a walk, so she would not make excuses for Ningxiang.

"You will follow me when you arrive in the town, don't stay away." Li repeatedly told the girls.

Xu Qiuer smiled and said, "Don't worry, we are not children."

Li hummed, looked at his niece quietly, and his eyes turned to the direction of Lu Cheng's family.

She still remembers the year she got engaged with her husband, and it was also the Mid-Autumn Festival Lantern Festival. Her husband secretly asked her out. Her parents actually knew that it was a rare festival after all, and they also knew that Xu Shouliang was honest and tacitly agreed. Only her mother reminded her before she went out that she would only be allowed to go for half an hour and would be scolded when she came back late.

Not only them, but many men and women who have been engaged have ever been like this.

I thought Lu Cheng would have an appointment with a niece, but when she asked her niece if she wanted to enjoy the lantern at night, she refused twice, but it was obvious that she did not make an appointment. Perhaps it was because she saw each other too many times in the first half of August, so she didn't think so much, or was Lu Cheng not aware that she could have an appointment with her fiancée tonight?

With random thoughts, the whole family entered the town.

Xu Shouliang held his nephew, Li held his daughter, and Ningxiang walked side by side with Guan Ping.

Ningxiang deliberately walked on Guan Ping's side while quietly observing the street, looking for Lu Cheng's figure. I don't know if he hadn't come yet or the lights were dim. After looking at him for a while, he didn't see anyone, but Guan Ping noticed something strange. Ningxiang was very embarrassed and obediently stopped thinking about Lu Cheng and focused on appreciating the lanterns.

The shops on both sides of the street were hung with various lanterns. The shops selling snacks were the most lively and the business was booming. Amu was greedy for meat, and Li generously bought a skewer for his nephew and asked Ningxiang if the three girls wanted it. The three girls shook their heads.

I've seen the lights and eaten meat. Amu was sleepy and started rubbing his eyes.

Seeing that it was not too early, Li suggested going back.

Ningxiang couldn't help but feel disappointed. Looking around for a week, where was the shadow of Lu Cheng?

After complaining for so long, I still hope to meet Lu Cheng.

Xu Qiuer was thinking about his brother and Guan Ping's affairs and immediately rejected: "Mom, I haven't visited enough yet. Amuku, please let my father take him back first, so let's take a few more shopping."

The little girl acted coquettishly, but Li couldn't stop her. She turned her head and signaled her husband to take her nephew back first.

Xu Shouliang squatted down, carried his nephew on his back, looked at their mothers and said, "Don't go too late, boss, please beware."

Xu Huai nodded.

Xu Shouliang left with the sleepy Amu on his back.

Li led the girls to continue walking. After walking a few steps, he saw a tall man suddenly walking out from behind a lamp shop next to him. He was wearing dark clothes, slender and upright, and the light made his face look handsome. Just looking at his appearance, it seemed like Wu Quxing falling from the sky, smiling brightly and approachable.

Ningxiang also saw it. Seeing Lu Cheng appearing so blatantly, she hid behind Li in shame.

Li looked at Lu Cheng and laughed in her heart. She knew that Lu Cheng was so sloppy, how could he miss such a good opportunity?

"Auntie, are you here to enjoy the lanterns too?" Lu Cheng had already walked up to several people and smiled very honestly.

Li snorted and handed him a look of "cheating less".

The elder knew it well, Lu Cheng did not pretend to behave anymore, touched his nose, pointed to the distance and said, "Aunt, Anan misses Xiang'er, I want to take Xiang'er over and see him. Do you guys appreciate it first?"

Anyone knows this is just an excuse.

Xu Qiuer turned around, glared at her brother, pointed at Lu Cheng and then at Guan Ping, signaling him to learn something.

Xu Huai had a fire ignited in his chest as early as Lu Cheng appeared.

They are all men, why can Lu Cheng be able to fight repeatedly until he succeeds?

As his eyes fell on Guan Ping's back, Xu Huai's whole body became hot.

But there is someone who is hotter than him.

Ningxiang hid behind her aunt with her head down. When Lu Cheng said the excuse that the child would not believe it, she was like drunken drinking, dizzy as if she was in a dream. This is the person she was going to marry, she was brave and dared to say and do it. Other men were secretly asking for fiancées. Lu Cheng was really capable and came directly to ask his aunt.

Will the aunt agree?

Ningxiang thought with her cuffs.

Anyway, she is willing. The relationship is really strange. She has not met Lu Chengqian, her younger brother and her family are the most important things. Perhaps she still attaches importance to her family now, but tonight she is thinking about Lu Cheng. When she saw the man in front of the pavilion buys a lamp for the girl around her, she would fantasize whether Lu Cheng would do this. When she saw someone holding hands quietly, she really wanted Lu Cheng's big hand...

He is all about him.

Lu Cheng couldn't see her, and his pleading gradually appeared in his eyes when he looked at Li's peach blossoms.

It is indeed beneficial to a good man's appearance. Li was a little embarrassed and glared at Lu Cheng in a vague way. She turned around and smiled with Ningxiang: "Since Anan misses you, Xiang'er, let's go and take a look. Let's go here and you can come back early."

She wouldn't give Lu Cheng half an hour, two quarters of an hour.

He approached Ningxiang's ear and whispered to explain the time limit.

Ningxiang nodded while biting her lip.

Li looked at Lu Cheng again.

Lu Cheng tactfully promised: "Don't worry, aunt, I'll send Xiang'er back in a while."

Li nodded with satisfaction.

Lu Cheng walked around her and said to his shy fiancée behind Li, "Let's go."

What else can Ningxiang say?

With his head slightly lowered and followed Lu Cheng forward. After walking a few steps, Lu Cheng stood beside her and protected her on the side where there were few people so as not to be hit by pedestrians. After walking farther, Lu Cheng turned around and looked around, sure that Li and others could not see this side, so he pulled Ningxiang into an alley next to him.

"Xiang'er..."

After stepping into the alley, Lu Cheng directly carried Ningxiang and hugged Ningxiang, and quickly walked to the place he had liked during the day.

Ningxiang's feet were hanging in the air and asked him nervously: "Where are you going?"

The sound is low.

Lu Cheng's breathing was a little heavy, "There is a toon tree inside. We hide behind the tree, and some people can't see it even if they are outside."

Ningxiang stopped talking, and as he pounded twice as his rapid pace, he whispered: "My aunt said, I will only give us two quarters of an hour, and we will have to go back in a while." After saying that, he added silently in his heart, asking him not to mess around, and to reserve time for coming and going.

"If you want to wear one more piece of clothing, you won't wear it." Li said softly, but she really felt sorry for her daughter. She hugged the girl in her arms and looked away with her neck. How long has it been? Why has Lu Cheng not sent her niece back yet?

Xu Qiuer gave her brother a wink in a slight voice and discussed: "Mom, let my elder brother and sister Guan wait for my sister here. Let's go back first. I really can't stand anymore. I want to lie in the quilt and sleep quickly."

Li hugged his daughter and was embarrassed.

Xu Huai understood his sister's painstaking efforts, glanced at Guan Ping, and then advised his mother, "Mom, you and your sister go back first. When Xiang'er comes back, we will go home immediately. My sister's health is important. It is easy to catch a cold when it gets autumn. Don't get cold."

Now when you go back, there are many people on the way, so you can walk with your companions, so don’t worry about something happening.

Li wanted to wait a little longer, but couldn't help but act coquettishly and begged too hard. Thinking that Lu Cheng and his niece might be talking sweetly at this time, Li hesitated for a moment and decided to take advantage of Lu Cheng. He glanced at his son and looked at Guan Ping, "Are Miss Guan sleepy? Why don't you go back with us too."

The Xu Huai brothers and sisters immediately felt heartbroken.

Guan Ping glanced at Xu Huai's clenched fists, recalling Xu Qiuer's abnormality, and vaguely guessed something.

Does Xu Huai want to do it again?

Guan Ping suddenly became a little curious.

She really wanted to know what else Xu Huai would say, after being rejected by her.

"Aunt, you all go back, I'll just wait for the fragrance alone." Guan Ping said calmly.

In just one sentence, it was like a big stone, which ruthlessly hit Xu Huai's beating heart.

She still doesn't want to be alone with him.

Before I could say it, I already knew the answer.

Xu Huai held it over and did not turn his back to her.

But Li immediately rejected it and looked at Guan Ping and said, "You are a girl's house, how can you wait alone? That's it. Let's go back first. You two will wait for Xiang'er together, it should be soon."

Guan Ping nodded and refused again.

Xu Huai felt a little better, stood there, watching his mother and sister leave.

At the entrance of the alley, Lu Cheng led Ningxiang slowly and walked out, almost leaving, and suddenly saw the two mothers of Li.

Lu Cheng's first thought was that Li came to find them, but he immediately noticed that Li and Xu Qiuer looked ahead, not like looking for someone. He felt confused. Lu Cheng deliberately did not remind the girl hiding behind him. When Li and his mother walked away, he led Ningxiang back to the street.

"Let go." Ningxiang lowered her head and struggled.

Lu Cheng was pretending to be in his head, letting go obediently, protecting her and walking towards the place before. From a distance, he saw Guan Ping standing in front of a lamp shop. Xu Huai stood behind Guan Ping blankly, with a wild look on his face, as if he wanted to say something but didn't dare to tell others.

As early as the day of picking fruits, Lu Chengju reminded him that Xu Huai had seen Xu Ping's feelings for Guan Ping.

Looking at the two of them again, Lu Cheng suddenly felt interesting and walked closer to him and asked Xu Huai in confusion, "Why are you two? Where did Aunt and Qiu'er go?"

Guan Ping heard his voice and slowly turned around, only looking at Ningxiang walking towards her.

Xu Huai calmed down his mind and said as naturally as possible: "Qiu'er felt a little uncomfortable, so I went back first with my mother. Now Xiang'er is back, so we..."

Before he finished speaking, Lu Cheng pulled him to the shop and asked him in a low voice, "You are stupid. You have a rare opportunity to get along with Miss Guan. You still want Xiang'er to block you? In this way, I'll send Xiang'er back, and you and Guan Ping walk slowly. We will meet at your village head in about half an hour. Let's wait a moment if you arrive first."

He knew the approximate private time that his elders could accept.

It doesn’t matter if you’ve been engaged, it doesn’t matter if you have a little move, just don’t let people know.
