Chapter 147 Mid-Autumn Festival Banquet
Chapter 147 Mid-Autumn Festival Banquet
So the matter was settled. Song Chenfeng taught Aluan how to use it correctly, and at the same time he was preparing to build his own martial arts school.
Although Song Chenfeng's martial arts skills are not as good as those of top martial arts masters like Mu Nanqi, he is more than capable of opening a martial arts school among the people, and he is even more capable of teaching a girl who has never learned martial arts.
Compared to Aluan's hammering technique which was completely random and based on her own thinking, Song Chenfeng could obviously help her control her strength better.
Amidst the joy, it soon got dark.
The moon is surprisingly beautiful tonight, big and round, and the soft light casts a shadow on everyone, adding a touch of softness to everyone's eyes and brows.
Mu Nanqi was the last to arrive. He was very thoughtful and prepared a small gift for everyone present.
Xie Yinyin and the others didn't dare to accept the Third Prince's gifts. They were shaking their hands and didn't know what to do. But maybe Mu Nanqi had done his homework in advance, and every gift was delivered to their hearts and they loved it very much.
Song Yang was also flattered. After all, in the eyes of outsiders, Mu Nanqi was still the cold and unkind Third Prince.
In the end, it was Song Zhi who stepped in and made them accept the gifts with peace of mind.
"Why are you here so late?" Song Zhi asked.
"The palace banquets always require me to make an appearance, so I come late."
Mu Nanqi was in a good mood, "But are you hungry after waiting for so long?"
"Yes, a little bit." Song Zhi replied with a smile.
Everyone quickly sat down to eat. When they saw Mu Nanqi picking out fish bones for Song Zhi, they looked as if they had seen a ghost.
Xie Yinyin couldn't help but sigh in her heart, who the hell was that rumor that the Third Prince was cold and heartless? He was obviously so gentle and considerate.
This alleviated the fear of accepting the gift, and he even picked up a piece of food for Mu Nanqi with his chopsticks lovingly.
"Your Highness, don't just focus on Zhier. There are so many of us taking care of her. You should eat more too."
"Okay, thank you very much, Auntie."
Mu Nanqi naturally followed Song Zhi's call, which made Xie Yinyin smile even more.
Looking at Mu Nanqi, who was always willing to accept advice and whose every move revealed his dignity and self-restraint, Xie Yinyin suddenly felt that the Dog Emperor must be blind, otherwise why would he not like such an outstanding son.
Without the love of his father or mother, he had to live in that cannibalistic palace.
The more Xie Yinyin thought about it, the more distressed she felt. She wanted to give all the delicious food to Mu Nanqi.
Song Yang was holding an empty bowl at the side, looking aggrieved, shaking his head and sighing, "I'm old and useless. No one cares when I eat."
As soon as she finished speaking, Xie Yinyin picked up a chicken leg and put it in his bowl.
Song Yang's expression changed instantly, and he smiled sweetly, "Yinmei, you are so kind."
Song Zhi and Song Chenfeng were extremely disgusted by this worthless look.
Song Yang himself did not feel ashamed, and smiled proudly, "What do you know? This is called the crying child gets the milk."
In a joyful atmosphere, everyone finished this year's Mid-Autumn Festival reunion dinner.
Compared with the perfunctory formalities of previous years, this year there is a lot more human warmth.
After dinner, everyone went their separate ways. Mu Nanqi took Song Zhi out to watch the Mid-Autumn Lantern Festival.
In order to avoid being recognized by outsiders and causing unnecessary trouble, both of them chose a mask to wear.
Fortunately, there were many people wearing masks and playing around tonight, so their attire was not noticeable.
After leaving the Song Mansion, it wasn’t long before we saw all kinds of lanterns lit up on the street.
Once you get to the main street, you can enjoy all kinds of activities, such as guessing riddles, reciting poems, performing acrobatics, and throwing pots.
The place was bustling with people coming and going, and the lanterns twinkled like fireflies in the dark night, looking extremely dreamy.
However, the most popular place in the whole city is the Marriage Bridge. It is the favorite place for men and women of marriageable age. Everyone takes lanterns to write down their wishes and puts them into the river, praying that their wishes will come true.
Looking at the Marriage Bridge from afar, Song Zhi couldn't help but think of the scene when he passed by it not long ago.
At that time, cracks appeared on the bridge, and Mu Nanqi sent people to repair it that night.
For this purpose, a rumor was deliberately spread that the bridge was repaired because the Sixth Prince and Miss Song had broken off their engagement, making the emperor even more convinced that Mu Yuanzhi should not marry her.
Thinking of this, Song Zhi laughed out loud.
"What are you laughing at?"
"Nothing, nothing."
Song Zhi waved his hand, "Do you want to go and release a lantern too?"
Mu Nanqi asked back, "Do you want to let go?"
Song Zhi thought about it carefully and seemed not very interested in such behavior. "Everything depends on human effort. I only believe in myself. If this can make wishes come true, then everyone doesn't need to do anything. Just come here every day to light lanterns and make wishes."
"How can you have such sophisticated ideas when you are just about to come of age? This is just a beautiful wish, it doesn't necessarily have to come true. Come on, let me go and release two."
Mu Nanqi pulled her to an old man's stall and picked out two lanterns that cost twenty cents each, allowing the old man to make a profit of nineteen cents for each lantern.
The old man smiled so hard that his teeth were not visible, and he said a lot of auspicious words.
Because he didn't bring paper and pen, Mu Nanqi was about to go buy some more, but Song Zhi was so scared that he pulled him back.
"These things are expensive now, so don't wait for others to rip you off. Forget it, just go through the motions and show your appreciation. I feel bad about spending money on these lanterns."
After saying that, he pulled Mu Nanqi to the river where there were not many people, put the lantern into the water, closed his eyes and made a wish.
When she opened her eyes after making the wish, she found Mu Nanqi staring at her motionlessly.
There was deep affection in those beautiful eyes, as if there was no room for anything else except her.
"If you don't let go..."
The lips that came up to her interrupted her next words. He took advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention and kissed her like a chick pecking at rice, then left quickly.
"Azhi, my wish has come true."
He casually put the lantern into the water. Although the lantern was released a little later, it swayed and caught up with the lantern that Song Zhi had released.
The two lanterns were placed close together and floated away along the river.
Song Zhi felt that his face must have turned red, otherwise it wouldn't be so hot.
What a bastard, he took advantage of her in public. How could she bear this loss?!
So without thinking, she grabbed his clothes on his chest and kissed him back quickly.
There was a dark color in Mu Nanqi's eyes as he stared at her.
Song Zhi straightened his chest and said, "What are you looking at? You were the one who opened your mouth first."
Mu Nanqi's thin lips curved slightly, "Very good, remember this."
Song Zhi snorted and said stubbornly, "Just remember it."
The two were talking excitedly when Xiao Tao's voice suddenly came from the side, "Miss, it really is you, so good, this servant has been looking for you all the way."
Song Zhi was full of confusion, "How did you recognize me?"
Xiao Tao took it for granted, "I have served you for so many years. If I can't even recognize your figure, then my service as a personal maid would be in vain."
As he spoke, he suddenly remembered something urgent. "Oh, let's not talk about this for now. You have to go back quickly. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is looking for you! I was so scared that I almost fell off the stool. He asked me to come out quickly and take you back quietly through the back door."
