"Seventh sister."

Suddenly, a very faint voice came into her ears, with a hesitant tone. Ming Jin came to her senses and looked over, and saw Ming Sheng looking at her from the opposite side.

Ming Sheng was obviously a little nervous when he suddenly met her eyes.

Habit made her lower her head unconsciously, not daring to look directly into Mingjin's eyes.

Until she heard Ming Jin ask her "what's wrong", Ming Sheng clenched her hands nervously again, hesitated for a long time before raising her head, but still pressed her eyelids, not daring to look directly at Ming Jin, and whispered to Ming Jin: "No, it's okay, I just saw you didn't say anything, I thought something happened to you..."

Actually, it was Ming Sheng. Just now, she happened to see Ming Jin's expression and felt that something was not right with her, so she felt a little worried about her.

But Ming Sheng didn't dare to say it.

However, Ming Jin still heard the hidden meaning of Ming Sheng's words. He looked at Ming Sheng's face which turned red due to nervousness, and his ears which were red and hot.

She actually laughed.

The indifference and coldness that had suddenly arisen in my heart due to thinking about the past gradually disappeared.

She looked at Ming Sheng in front of her and softened her voice unconsciously.

"I was just thinking about something and my mind wandered. It's okay."

Ming Sheng heaved a sigh of relief after hearing these words.

Although Mingrong was looking outside, she was actually listening to their conversation with her ears perked up. She wanted to interrupt and start a conversation with them, but when she saw Mingsheng's new clothes and what Mingjin had said to her last time, she felt a little grudgeful, so she turned her back to them and pretended she heard nothing.

Ming Sheng and Ming Jin didn't actually talk much.

She was used to being careful with her words in public, but in her heart, the nervousness and fear she had felt towards her seventh sister gradually disappeared as Mingjin's face softened.

Ming Sheng couldn't help but think to himself: It turns out that Seventh Sister isn't that difficult to get along with.

She felt a little happy.

The carriage drove forward for a while, and suddenly, a guard came over on horseback and asked Mingjin what he meant: "Princess, the second young master said that the carriage ahead can't pass. Is it okay now?"

Ming Jin glanced outside and found that they were not far from Zhuque Street.

The front gate archway of Zhuque Street was only ten feet away from them. With so many people here today, it would be difficult to park any further, so she just nodded slightly.

"Listen to my second brother's arrangements."

The guard bowed in response and went over to reply.

Not long after, the carriage in front stopped first, and Mingjin and her friends' carriage also stopped.

The maids and old women in the carriage behind came over and helped their masters to step down from the carriage one by one.

They stood firm.

Ming Jingting came over with two children.

Ming Jinghuai is okay. He is twelve years old, a few years older than Ming Jingxiao, and his temperament is much calmer and more well-behaved.

When I saw them, I bowed and greeted them.

"Fourth sister, fifth sister, seventh sister." Ming Jinghuai called out one by one.

But Ming Jingxiao was at his most lively and active.

He is at an age when people hate him and dogs despise him, but he has been spoiled since childhood. He is curious about everything and cannot stay still for even a quarter of an hour.

Ming Jingting felt overwhelmed as he looked at the kid along the way.

It was still okay when he was in the carriage. At most he just had to be careful with people so that they wouldn't fall out of the carriage. But when he was outside, it was terrible. Just now, he wasn't paying attention and Ming Jingxiao rushed forward. Fortunately, the guards were quick-witted and pulled him back immediately.

At this time, Ming Jingting held the person tightly.

As soon as Ming Jingxiao's wet nurse got off the carriage, he immediately called her over.

"Keep an eye on the Tenth Young Master." He gave the wet nurse instructions.

Only when Ming Jingxiao was firmly held by someone did Ming Jingting breathe a sigh of relief.

He no longer had the usual carefree and romantic demeanor of the Second Young Master Ming. At this moment, he was wiping the sweat from his forehead and talking to Ming Jin and the other two with a weak look on his face.

"There are too many people ahead. I look at them and I'm afraid we can't walk together, but everyone should stay together, especially you..." He looked at Chunyu and the others and said, "I will send guards to protect you from behind, but you must follow your master closely and never leave him. Remember?"

Ming Jingting always has a smile on his face and seems very easy to talk to.

This time his face was very serious.

The maids, led by Chunyu, knew how serious this was and nodded in agreement.

Ming Jingting gave Ming Jin and the others a few more instructions.

It was the first time for Ming Jingting to bring so many brothers and sisters out, and he was nervous, fearing that something might happen.

After all, something like this had happened in their mansion.

He racked his brains and thought hard, wondering if there was anything he hadn't explained.

Ming Jin knew that he was worried, so he comforted him, "Don't be so nervous, brother. We will be fine as long as we walk together."

"If you really get lost later, don't worry. Either find a more empty and conspicuous place and wait for people to find you, or walk around for a while and come back here first."

Ming Jin reminded: "Remember, don't be afraid of separation."

"There are so many people here today. If anything happens, we'll just have to worry about crowding or trampling. So if we really separate, you need to stay calm and follow the crowd. Stop when you find an empty space. Got it?"

Ming Jin had been the head of the household for several years and had gotten used to giving orders. He unknowingly took over Ming Jingting's job.

But she spoke calmly and looked normal, and no one noticed anything was wrong.

Everyone, including Mingrong who disliked Mingjin, nodded and agreed. Until they realized what was happening, Mingrong was the first to change his expression.

I felt a little unhappy that I had agreed so naturally just now.

what you want to say.

But Ming Jin had already continued to instruct others: "Tenth brother is the youngest and the most active. Mother Zhang, you must follow Tenth brother closely. And you, send two more people to follow Tenth brother and make sure nothing happens to him."

Mother Zhang and the two guards all responded respectfully.

After hearing these words, Mingrong fell silent again, and forgot what he wanted to say just now.

She glanced at Ming Jin, and finally made sure that he was not pretending, so she just turned her face away and looked away.

"Ninth brother, you and Fifth sister have always been together, you two will go together later, Huaixu, Tongyue, you two should follow Fifth Miss and Ninth Master closely."

Two maids were suddenly called.

Not only were they stunned for a moment, but even Ming Sheng and Ming Jinghuai opened their eyes wide in shock.

They looked as if they didn't expect Mingjin to know their maid's name.

But Ming Jin didn't look at it for long. She just explained everything one by one as usual, and then looked at Ming Jingting: "Second brother, okay, let's go."

Ming Jingting uttered a sigh, then realized what was happening and nodded quickly, saying, "Okay, okay, just do as Miss Seven said just now. Each of you should keep a close eye on your own master."

After giving these instructions, the group moved forward.

Ming Jingting looked at Ming Jin, who was always calm and composed, and said in a low voice, "Thank goodness you are here today, otherwise, I really don't know what to do."

He didn't expect this job to be so difficult.

Ming Jin smiled at him and said, "Second brother is too concerned and nervous."

"After all, this is the first time. In the past, it was always my eldest brother who brought them out, and I was just an assistant at most." Ming Jingting took over the conversation naturally.

As soon as he finished speaking, he paused, thinking of something.

Ming Jingting looked at Ming Jin again and saw that she looked normal and was not upset because he mentioned his elder brother. Ming Jingting breathed a sigh of relief.

so far so good.

Ming Jingting then retracted his gaze and said to Ming Jin, "There's really no need to be so nervous. Things are not the same as before."

"Over the years, the capital has been heavily guarded. In addition to patrolling officers and soldiers, every street is also guarded by the Five City Administration's troops. Especially on days like this, every city gate is strictly guarded, and every street is watched, just to prevent any more trouble."

When Ming Jingting said this, he couldn't help but sigh softly.

If they had been so strictly guarded ten years ago, why would Yanyan have left them for ten years? There was still sadness in his eyes as he looked at Mingjin.

Ming Jin's expression remained the same, and he said with a smile: "This is a good thing."

Ming Jingting raised his hand and touched her head.

There were so many people on Zhuque Street today that after the Ming family entered the front street of Zhuque Street, they could no longer walk in a single row.

But because of what Ming Jingting and Ming Jin had said before, the group was not so nervous. A few people formed a group and walked and looked around. Sometimes when they needed to stop, everyone would stop as well. They tried to stay together and not be too separated.

However, the group had to separate when they reached Middle Street.

There is someone dancing with a fire dragon in front.

This is one of the customs of the Mid-Autumn Festival. The fire dragon symbolizes auspiciousness and blessing. Every Mid-Autumn Festival, there will be a group of people on Zhuque Street who specialize in performing the fire dragon.

The fire dragon is vivid and can breathe fire.

The street was already crowded, and because of this performance, people had to move to the sides.

"Second brother, seventh sister!"

The voices of Ming Sheng and others could be heard from the front, as well as Ming Rong calling "Second Brother".

Ming Jingting hurriedly shouted, "Don't be afraid. According to what Yanyan said just now, everyone should stay together. Fifth sister, ninth brother, fourth sister, tenth brother, you sisters and brothers should hold hands. Don't be nervous. Wait until this group of people disperses, and then we will go together."

Ming Jingting's clear voice came over.

The tension and fear in the hearts of the two pairs of siblings gradually dissipated, and they stood aside quietly holding hands.

The crowd was so huge that even if Ming Jingting was tall, all he could see were heads and he couldn't tell who was who.

Ming Jingting suppressed his thoughts and planned to stand with Ming Jin first, and then go find his fifth sister and the others after the fire dragon show was over.

"Little Swallow."

Ming Jingting called out to the person beside him out of habit.

But Mingjin, who was supposed to be by her side, disappeared for a while.

Ming Jingting was immediately shocked: "Yanyan!"

he shouted.

I was just about to push through the crowd to find someone.

Mingjin's voice came from somewhere: "Brother, I'm fine. Chunyu and I are together. Let's wait for the performance to end."

Ming Jingting breathed a sigh of relief when he heard her voice.

Looking around, he could not see anyone, so Ming Jingting could only remind him, "Then be careful, find a safe place and wait for me to find you."

Mingjin replied "OK".

She was not nervous at all. Instead, she patted Chun Yu, who was holding her hand tightly and protecting her with a tense face, in a comforting manner: "Don't be so nervous, it's okay."

Chunyu said "I'm not nervous", but she looked extremely nervous.

Mingjin looked at her and smiled, but didn't say anything else.

The fire dragon show is coming.

Along with the fire dragon performance, there were also goddesses scattering flowers and the Eight Immortals scattering blessed fruits. For a moment, the crowd, which was already extremely crowded, became even more crowded, and some people were vying for the blessed fruits that represented auspiciousness.

The place where Mingjin and Chunyu were standing was the most noisy.

"Don't push, all of you, don't push."

"Don't pick it up, don't pick it up, you're going to fall."

All kinds of noisy sounds rang out one after another. Even if Chunyu wanted to protect Mingjin, she was just a weak woman. Pushed by the crowd, the master and servant were separated.

Chunyu immediately cried nervously: "Princess, where are you?"

She was still reaching forward, trying to hold Mingjin's hand.

Ming Jin was also being pushed by the crowd. She frowned, but when she heard Chun Yu's voice, she calmly said, "Do as I just said. Don't be afraid. Find an open space and wait."

"Good good."

Chunyu was at a loss at the moment, so she just did whatever Mingjin said.

Ming Jin followed the crowd and walked forward. When she saw an open space nearby, she breathed a sigh of relief. Just as she was about to walk over there, she saw a child who was only as tall as her thighs in front of her, crying and looking for his parents.

"Wuwuwu, Dad, Mom, where are you?"

Afraid that something might happen to him if he stood here, Ming Jin hurriedly pulled him forward.

Ming Jin had just placed the child in an open space and wanted to ask the child's name so that it would be easier for him to find his parents later, but he was bumped by someone from behind and staggered forward a few steps.

There is an open space in front and there is nothing to hold on to.

Ming Jin frowned and tried to control his body to stand steady, but was caught by a pair of strong arms.

"Be careful."

A familiar male voice came into Mingjin's ears.

Ming Jin looked up in surprise and saw Gu Mingheng, wearing a black brocade robe with gold patterns, looking down at her.

The lanterns on the long street were reflected in his eyes, and both eyes were flowing with colorful light.

Mingjin could see her own reflection in his eyes. She looked at Gu Mingheng and shouted in surprise, "Prince?"
