Scholar's Sweetheart

The seventh day of July, Qixi.

If he Baiyun had not come, song Xintong would not have remembered that today was Qixi.

He Baiyun looked at Song Xintong, who was still a little confused. "Xintong, don't you remember today is Qixi?"

In recent days, song Xintong has been busy with all kinds of things. The only big day song Xintong remembers is the 10th day of the first day of the lunar new year, the day when she started work. Besides, she has no one she likes. How can she remember today's Qixi.

"What about Qixi?" Song Xintong turned over the dried agaric and mushroom in the dustpan and asked.

He Baiyun took song Xintong's arm and said, "there is a lantern festival in the county today. Let's go and see it together."

"At night?" Song Xintong asked.

"It starts when it rings, but there will be fireworks in the evening." He Baiyun said.

Song Xintong shook his head, "if you don't go, there's something else to do at home."

"Why not? It's very busy today. Many girls and boys in our village are going to go. " He Baiyun continued: "it's not easy to go out and play once. Let's go?"

Qixi, a blind date meeting in disguise?

Most of the Tanabata in the original owner's memory are like each other. Some lovers take this opportunity to go to the lantern fair. If they don't, they can meet one by chance. If they fall in love with each other, they will ask their family to propose marriage.

Song Xintong is not interested in these. He takes a glance at he Baiyun and says faintly: "there is still a little time at home. I can't go with you."

"What's the matter? Let's go, let's go. " He Baiyun pursed his little lips, "if you don't go, I'll go alone, and my mother won't agree."

"You can go with brother Dongzi." Song Xintong said.

"My sister-in-law, they are pregnant and dare not go." He Baiyun said: "Xintong, it's rare to have a lantern festival once a year. Let's go and have a look together. If we want to see it again, we'll have Lantern Festival next year."

Aunt Xie came out from the back of the room, and just heard the conversation between them, "Xintong, you can go with them. Your brother Dayi also wants to go to the city. Just together, we can take care of each other."

"Auntie, we're still busy at home." Song Xintong doesn't really want to go.

"If you have anything to do, it's all done." Aunt Xie said, "stay at home all day and do something with us old women. Go to the city and Dabao and Xiaobao will stay at home. I'll take care of them."

"Sister, I want to go too." Xiao Bao came out of the room.

"You are so young to go to the Qixi Lantern Festival." Aunt Xie laughed and scolded, "you have to be more careful when you go to the county. When there are so many people, it's most easy to meet someone who takes pictures of flowers. You girls have to be more careful."

"I see, auntie." He Baiyun took song Xintong's arm and said, "Xintong, my aunt has let you go. Let's go, let's go?"

Song Xintong thought, "OK, but I have to come back earlier in the evening."

He Baiyun nodded immediately, "I'll come back after seeing the fireworks."

Song Xintong thought about it. The fireworks were only released in Xu Shi at most. He wanted to be able to go home before the third quarter of Hai Shi, so he nodded, "OK."

It's half the time.

With the help of aunt Xie, song Xintong changed her green and bright new idea and pulled the customary hair temples of unmarried women in the Zhou Dynasty. "Xintong, you look so much better. The disorderly hair a few days ago is not good-looking at all."

Song Xintong touched her hair. Without a mirror, she didn't know what it was like.

She didn't know how to comb the temples before, so she directly braided her hair into fishbone braids, a simple hairstyle. Unexpectedly, she was rejected.

Aunt Xie took a look at her and sighed, "it's good to have a pearl hairpin, but this wooden hairpin is also beautiful, just a little simpler."

Song Xintong used to have a pearl hairpin. Later, because of his father's death, he sold it all. There was only a peach hairpin with several peach flowers carved on it. It looked simple and beautiful.

"Xintong, let's go." He Baiyun yelled outside, "it's almost time."

"Here we are." Song Xintong walked out of the yard, sat on the donkey cart of he's family, and walked to the county town. As he passed by the stream, song Xintong couldn't help looking at the school hidden among the trees and green leaves.

I haven't seen Mr. Lu for many days, and I don't know what he's been up to recently? After thinking about it, I decided to take the twins to school tomorrow and ask Lu to show them how to write.

Out of the exit, I met many young men and women who took a ride to the county. They looked like peach blossoms and looked forward to life. It was hard to help looking at them more.

It's good to be young, song Xintong said secretly.

In the second quarter of Youshi, a group of people rushed to the gate of the county. The sheds outside were full. Xie Yi managed to find a place to park his donkey cart, and then led several people to the gate.

"Cousin." He Baiyun waved to the men and women standing at the door, then turned to song Xintong and said, "Xintong, my cousin is there."

He Baiyun called in turn: "big cousin, cousin, second cousin."

"Cousin, here you are." One of the young women dressed as a woman fell first and said, "our eyes are almost through."

He Baiyun embarrassed smile, full of coy quickly looked at the corner of the handsome young man, "we look for the location of the donkey cart for a long time."

He Baiyun's big cousin asked, "who are these

He Baiyun quickly took song Xintong and said, "this is Xintong. This is brother Xie Yi. They are all children of the neighbor's aunt's family."

Song Xintong said hello to several people.

"Let's go first. It's busy today. Be careful with your money bags." Big cousin said, and then with big cousin took the lead in front.

He Baiyun, holding song Xintong in his arm, looks shyly at her second cousin from time to time. Song Xintong has goose bumps because of their affectionate appearance.

Song Xintong quietly pulls his hand out of he Baiyun's hand, then quietly slows down two steps, and walks behind Xie Yi side by side. Looking at the two people walking closer and closer in front of him, he can't help but smile. As expected, they are cousins and childhood sweethearts.

People come and go on the street, men and women, very busy.

As he walked along, song Xintong saw Xie Yizheng's absent-minded looking around. As soon as he changed his mind, he knew that he was looking for his wife who had not been through the door. He couldn't help but smile and asked, "brother Dayi has an appointment with his future sister-in-law?"

Xie Yi suddenly blushed and stammered, "I just said I'll see you on this street."

Song Xintong nodded, "people are coming and going in the street. It's better to stand on a high place and have a look everywhere, so as not to miss it."

Xie Yi this just reaction come over, feel embarrassed of touch back brain, "there is a high platform in front, I stand there."

"Well, brother Dayi, go ahead. I'll see you later at the gate of the city. If you can't find me, go to Jixiang restaurant." Song Xintong and Xie Yi agreed on the location, and then continued to walk along the stream of people.
