[Comprehensive] A small goal

On the night of Shangyuan, Lin Shiyin still asked Leng Xue to go out to the lantern festival together as usual.

This is almost the annual schedule of the two of them, and the whole Li Garden knows it clearly.

It's just that before she went out this year, she received a lot of hesitant looks from the servants, the meaning of which was self-evident.

Even though Lin Shiyin always knew that Li Xunhuan had always surpassed her in their hearts, she was also a little bit uncomfortable.

But thinking about it the other way around, although the servants were all supportive of Li Xunhuan, at least no one came directly to persuade her to get back together with Li Xunhuan, which was better than her initial expectation!

She comforted herself with emotion.

The Shangyuan Lantern Festival is still as lively as before.

As usual, Lin Shiyin dragged him to line up in the line of onions and rabbits.

After a few years, the owner of the stall has already known the two of them. After all, there are not many young people who are as good-looking and well-matched as the two of them.

"Or four skewers?" The boss looked up at them and asked with a smile.

"Yes." Lin Shiyin cheerfully counted out the money and handed it over, squinting her eyes and took half of it to Leng Xue, "Shall we go for a stroll by the river?"

"Hmm." He nodded.

The people on the bridge by the river are also more than a year, crowded to and fro, so lively.

Both of them are experienced, and they are best at drilling places with few people, so it's okay.

When he walked under the bridge to watch the fireworks, Lin Shiyin suddenly said to him: "By the way, I said before that I would find a house closer to the Shenhou Mansion to move there, but my cousin disagreed. After all, he agreed to my aunt. Will take care of me, I can't make it too difficult for him."

She wasn't sure if the cold-blooded person would be unhappy, and when she said it, she had a rare expression on her face.

Leng Xue knew from her tone that Li Xun Huan hadn't told her that he went to Shenhou's mansion to discuss with his uncle about their marriage.

To be honest, Leng Xue was quite shocked when he first learned about this from Zhuge Shenhou.

This man obviously still has feelings for Lin Shiyin, and even has a legitimate marriage contract.

As a result, they not only gave up voluntarily, but also contributed to their coming?

Is there such a noble person in the world?

Zhuge Shenhou was also very emotional: "He just wants Miss Lin to be happy."

Facing such a rival in love, Leng Xue really doesn't even know where to start.

So now that Lin Shiyin told him that she couldn't move out of Li Yuan, he probably understood why Li Xunhuan wanted to obstruct her.

It is to let her have a tenable natal family when she gets married, instead of being alone.

Thinking of this, Leng-Blood's mood became more complicated.

He nodded towards Lin Shiyin and said, "It's okay."

Lin Shiyin was still worried: "Don't be unhappy."

He was helpless: "I'm not unhappy."

Lin Shiyin stared at him suspiciously: "Really?"

When he bumped into Li Xunhuan that day, he was quite concerned. She thought that she would have to coax her for a long time to get rid of the fact that she didn't move, and she was even ready to be bitten by him again!

She was not used to the calm response after receiving him.

Looking at her changing expression coldly, he probably guessed what she was thinking. After hesitating for a while, he decided to tell her about Li Xunhuan's visit to Shenhou Mansion.

He said, "Xiao Li Tanhua has come to see my uncle."

At this time, there were fireworks not far away, and there was a bang after a whoosh, which mixed with the noise of the surrounding people, covering most of his deep voice, so that she only heard the words "Xiao Li Tanhua", which was a bit Stupid: "What?"

Leng Xue pursed his lips, lowered his head to her ear, and said, "He is discussing our marriage with my uncle."

Now Lin Shiyin heard it clearly.

"What?!" She was no less shocked than he was before, "He..."

"I didn't expect that either." He said coldly and sincerely, "But Uncle Shi won't joke about such things."

Of course Lin Shiyin knew that Zhuge Shenhou would not joke about this, but she was still so shocked by Li Xunhuan's holy fatherhood that she couldn't speak.

But in the cold-blooded eyes of this appearance, I couldn't help worrying if she didn't want to.

So the next moment, she heard him ask herself: "You don't want to marry me?"

Lin Shiyin regained consciousness, unable to laugh or cry: "Of course not."

With a sigh of relief, he leaned over and kissed the corner of her lips lightly.

He is always very restrained when he is outside, but tonight maybe because of the mention of getting married, he is also unavoidably excited. neck, sending the whole person into his arms.

They stood under the bridge that cut off most of the bustle. Behind them were the bright fireworks, and under their feet was the lingering river. They were all beautiful scenery that they couldn't see in ordinary times, but they didn't have time to appreciate them carefully.

Lin Shiyin was held in his arms, and he felt that the night wind blowing was not as piercing as it should have been.

She couldn't help closing her eyes.

The darkness opened up the other senses even more, so that although the various noises on the bridge were still ringing in my ears, I could clearly hear the sound of water when their lips and tongues intertwined.

It was full of ambiguity, which made her shy and intoxicated.

The hand around her waist became stronger and stronger, making it impossible for her to escape at all.

Clinging together like this, the heat on both of them seemed to be able to penetrate through their clothes and completely blend together, and their heartbeats gradually became more consistent.

Whether it is urgent or slow, it all follows the movement of the tip of the tongue.

A kiss so long it almost took her breath away.

When she was finally freed from the inside, Lin Shiyin's legs were limp. If it wasn't for his hand still on her waist, she might not even be able to stand up.

"cough……"

Although they were under the bridge, they were really crazy like this. They didn't feel it when they kissed, but now they woke up, it would be a little embarrassing.

After Lin Shiyin coughed twice to cover up, she patted her face quietly.

But when she looked up and saw his face illuminated by fireworks, she felt the warmth on his face return.

Hey, he's so good-looking, no wonder she can't help it.

In the end, the two of them didn't hang out for a long time before going back, because the vacation Lin Shiyin gave her was only up to Shangyuan. Starting tomorrow, the store under her hand was preparing to open on the [-]th of the first lunar month, so it was bound to be very busy.

Leng Xue originally planned to send her back to Li Garden and then leave, but as soon as the two of them entered the door, they heard the gatekeeper talking about it. The guest who came to visit Li Xun Huan today seemed to have a big background.

"Cousin's guest?" Lin Shiyin was a little concerned.

"Yes, I just went out with you. I haven't left yet." The servant replied respectfully.

The news of Li Xun Huan's return hadn't spread in the capital yet, so not many people knew about it at the moment, so to be able to come to visit him directly and talk to him about the present, it must have been a big deal.

Lin Shiyin and Leng Xue looked at each other, and asked, "Go and see?"

Leng Xue glanced at the brightly lit hall over there, then suddenly paused and said, "It's him."

Lin Shiyin: "... who?"

She also looked over, but she could barely see a silhouette standing outside the hall, it was so vague under the light that it was hard to see clearly.

"Lord Su." Leng Xue said, "That's his subordinate."

Lin Shiyin was startled when she heard it, it was actually Su Mengzhen?

However, he actually mentioned that he had been looking for a chance to meet Li Xun Huan at the beginning, so it was reasonable to think about it carefully.

"The news about the Golden Wind and Rain Tower is so well-informed." She sighed.

"Maybe Uncle Shi told him." Leng Xue said.

In fact, he was right, Li Xunhuan's return to Beijing was told by Zhuge Shenhou to Su Mengzhen.

He knew that the two had been friends for a long time, so he passed the news to Su Mengzhen after discussing his apprentice's marriage with Li Xunhuan.

So Su Mengzhen came.

He happened to be in time, not only did Li Xunhuan not go out, but even Chu Liuxiang, who had never seen each other during the whole New Year's Eve and only left the three younger sisters in Li Yuan, came to see them at this time.

At this time, Chu Liuxiang was no longer the unknown boy four years ago, and there were already quite a lot of rumors about him in the world.

Even Li Xun Huan had heard of his name when he was outside the customs, and knew that there was a bandit commander who was superb at lightness kung fu, and there was nothing he couldn't steal.

But Li Xunhuan didn't expect that he would meet this bandit commander at his home, and he was even more surprised when he learned that he was visiting his three younger sisters.

He had met those three little girls a few times, and casually asked Lin Shiyin about her background. At that time, Lin Shiyin said that she was the sister of a friend, so he didn't think much about it. He never knew that friend was actually Chu Liuxiang.

When Su Mengzhen came, Chu Liuxiang and Li Xunhuan were drinking.

The wine is Zui Hanjiang, which is not so rare in today's Li Garden, and Song Tian'er borrowed the kitchen to cook the appetizers for them. It was very appetizing.

After Su Mengzhen came, Li Xun Huan also kindly invited him to sit down and drink with them.

Of course Su Mengzhen agreed, so the three of them drank together until now.

Chatting from the rivers and lakes to state affairs is not without joy, and it can be said that it is too late to talk.

When Lin Shiyin and Leng Xue passed by, they were still drinking.

And the most amazing thing is that among the three of them, none of them looked drunk.

"Miss Lin is back." Chu Liuxiang was the first to spot her, and glanced back, "Ah, there is also Leng Butou."

Leng Xue has met him many times over the years, but it is a pity that he has not communicated much. After all, one is a policeman and the other is a bandit commander. In terms of identity, they are completely opposite.

As for Su Mengzhen, the owner of the Golden Wind and Drizzle Tower, this is not the first time I've seen Leng Xue.

It was precisely because he recognized Su Mengzhen's subordinates that he came to say hello to them, otherwise he didn't want to come to Li Xunhuan when he was done with Lin Shiyin.

So when Chu Liuxiang asked him if he wanted to sit down and have a drink together, he refused very decisively.

After that, he left Li Yuan without saying a word.

Lin Shiyin just went over to say hello, and sent him to the door after saying hello.

After the two said goodbye, she went back to her yard.

After moving back to the original yard, she was only separated by a wall from Su Rongrong, Song Tianer, Li Hongxiu and the others.

When I came back now, I saw the three of them playing Cuju in the yard, so I went to play with them for a while.

After kicking, Su Rongrong told her that tomorrow she and Song Tian'er will leave with Chu Liuxiang.

Lin Shiyin was surprised: "So fast? Don't you want to stay for a few more days?"

Song Tian'er also came over, grabbed her arm and acted coquettishly: "I can't bear to part with Sister Yin, but Brother Chu said that the boat he bought has arrived!"

Wow, the legendary ship was bought so early!

But Li Hongxiu was left here this time, I don't know if he would be reluctant?

Thinking of this, she looked at Li Hongxiu.

Under the moonlight, the girl's soft hair looked a little messy, but it made her face more serene.After noticing her gaze, Li Hongxiu also looked over and smiled at her: "I promised Brother Ji to stay in the capital."

This Lin Shiyin knew, and even more knew the intention of Ji Bingyan's arrangement.

It's just that she is still a little worried. Since Chu Liuxiang adopted her, the three of them haven't been separated yet.

"Besides, I'm very happy to be able to help you, Sister Yin." Seeing her worried face, Li Hongxiu hurriedly added, "As for the boat, I bought everything, and I can't escape there anyway."

After that, the three of them laughed together again.

Lin Shiyin breathed a sigh of relief, rubbed their heads, and went back to sleep.

Early the next morning, Chu Liuxiang brought Song Tian'er and Su Rongrong to her to say goodbye, and asked her to take good care of Li Hongxiu when she left.

He left his beloved sister here to help her, how could Lin Shiyin not agree.

"You can rest assured."

In this way, Chu Liuxiang didn't worry about it any more, she went to talk to Li Xunhuan again, and then left with others.

After they left, Lin Shiyin simply let Li Hongxiu live in his yard, which was more convenient.

Li Hongxiu herself had no objection to this, but she was still a little worried before moving in: "Miss Xian'er will not be unhappy, right?"

In fact, if she really wanted to say it, she didn't care whether Lin Xian'er was happy or not, she was just afraid that Lin Shiyin would be in trouble.

And Lin Shiyin thought for a while, and said, "It's okay, haven't you gotten along better these days?"

Li Hongxiu let out an oh, and didn't have any further objections.

In fact, they didn't get along well, but they both felt that the other party was not as smart as themselves, but Lin Shiyin said so, and she couldn't just say no directly.

Anyway, from the [-]th day of the first lunar month, Li Hongxiu officially moved into her yard.

Lin Shiyin had someone tidy up the wing room closest to the main house for her, and she did not forget to continue to pay attention to her and Lin Xianer's study progress after being busy every day.

Both of them are extremely smart, and when the first month passed, Lin Shiyin didn't let them stay in Li Yuan and talk on paper, and took them directly to the store, occasionally negotiating the price of follow-up cooperation with several bosses who supply ingredients I also took them to listen when I was there.

To say that Li Hongxiu is worthy of being the person that Ji Bingyan does not hesitate to praise, she is only 13 years old, and her mind is already so much that her business partners can't stand it.

As for Lin Xian'er, Lin Shiyin had never doubted her intelligence, but she was a little bit amused to see her trying so hard to compete with Li Hongxiu.

After working for half a month, Li Xunhuan finally came to her to talk about the marriage, probably because he had discussed with Zhuge Shenhou and reached an agreement so far.

But after opening his mouth, he still asked her what she thought, and asked her if she had any plans to get married.

Lin Shiyin thought for a while and said, "Yes, but there is no rush."

The answer was similar to what Li Xun Huan expected, he sighed and said, "Then how about we make an engagement first?"

Lin Shiyin had no objection: "Okay."

There are not many girls who can be as calm as her when it comes to marriage, but this frank attitude also shows her feelings for cold-blooded.

Thinking of this, Li Xun Huan felt some bitterness in his heart, but he suppressed it immediately, and didn't even let Lin Shiyin see it on his face.

The engagement of the sons and daughters of the rivers and lakes is not as particular as those officials and officials, but Li Xunhuan still prepared the exchange posts for her quite seriously, just like the natal family he said at the beginning.

After having a formal meal with Shenhou Mansion, she and Leng Xue's wedding date is also set, which will be next spring.

It sounds a long way off, but after all it takes more than half a year to prepare for a wedding, so it's okay.

During the banquet, Zhuge Shenhou said with emotion: "I have four apprentices, but in the end it was the youngest one who got married first."

Tie Shou and Wuqing were absent, and only the third but oldest Zhui Ming came to eat this meal. When he heard his uncle's words, his head grew dizzy: "Junior Brother, he is amazing!"

Seeing his appearance, Lin Shiyin couldn't help laughing. After laughing, she turned her head to look at Leng Xue beside her, and winked at him.

In fact, the hands of the two were holding each other under the table, their fingers intertwined.

The news of the engagement between the Li family and the Shenhou Mansion quickly spread throughout the capital, and along with it, the news of Li Xunhuan's return spread throughout the rivers and lakes. For a while, the city was full of discussions about them.

Lin Xian'er thought those people were boring and talkative, she disdained them very much, and complained for her for a long time, and because of this, she even disliked Li Xun Huan.

"If he hadn't left the girl and you left, there wouldn't be so many people talking about the girl's marriage all day long."

"Then if my cousin hadn't left, I wouldn't have married Leng Xue." Lin Shiyin said.

"If you don't marry, don't marry. No one is worthy of a girl." She said firmly.

Lin Shiyin almost burst out laughing, how deep is this girl's filter for her!

Even Li Hongxiu, who has always been ignorant of her, laughed when he heard this, but after laughing, it was a sarcasm.

Li Hongxiu said: "Yes, you are not worthy either."

Lin Xian'er was so angry that she wanted to hit her, she snorted and turned her head away.

However, there is never a shortage of new things in the capital, and within a few days they stopped talking about the marriage between the Shenhou Mansion and the Li family.

On the other hand, the Golden Wind and Drizzle Tower sent someone to send a congratulatory gift.

Ever since Su Mengzhen and Li Xunhuan met once, they became friends.

So it is not surprising that this gift is carefully counted.

"Lord Su really has a heart." Li Xun Huan sighed.

"Yes."

In fact, Lin Shiyin has always admired Su Mengzhen, and felt that people from the rivers and lakes like him who take the rise and fall of the country as their own responsibility are especially worthy of respect, but it is a pity that his body is weak and his fate is even more unfortunate.

Ah no, the body may have a way!

"Cousin." She suddenly raised her eyes, "Have you carefully read the kung fu recorded in the Lianhua Baojian?"

"I haven't looked at it carefully." Li Xun Huan was puzzled, "What's wrong?"

"I practiced fishing for three days and drying nets for two days, and my body is much better than before." She said, "Do you think it will be useful for Master Su?"

After all, Su Mengzhen is also a physical problem.

Li Xun Huan thought for a while and said, "I'll ask him after I've seen it."

Lin Shiyin nodded: "Young Master Lianhua is so powerful, and I have tried it, so I guess it will be of some use."

She was very relieved to leave this kind of matter to Li Xunhuan, not to mention that the Lianhua Baojian was originally given to him by Wang Lianhua, and she believed that even Wang Lianhua herself would not mind Li Xunhuan teaching the above martial arts to him. Su dream pillow.

And when Li Xun Huan went to study the martial arts mentality, Lin Shiyin also met two people who would have a relationship with Su Mengzhen by chance in the near future.

The matter starts with the lottery draw of the hot pot restaurant's point card.

Since it has stabilized once a month, the main store is extremely lively on the tenth day of every month.

Lin Shiyin happened to be there on the [-]th day of March, so she helped the shop assistant who was almost overwhelmed with the work of exchanging flower paper and tokens.

She has done this many times, and never had any troubles, but this time there were some twists and turns.

Because although a young man brought a sufficient amount of Tanhua paper, it was very wrinkled, as if it had been soaked in water and then dried, and the stamp on it was so blurred that it could not be seen clearly.

She glanced at it, a little confused.

Zui Hanjiang's reputation is too great, and many people have tried to get away with it by making articles on the Tanhua paper before, so that now they have to confirm that the printing on it is not a counterfeit before changing the token.

The ten photos in front of me obviously did not meet the requirements.

So Lin Shiyin could only push them back: "Sorry, the seal on it is so blurry, it can't be exchanged for tokens."

When the young man heard it, his expression immediately collapsed: "What? Can't be changed?!"

Lin Shiyin nodded, she is in business, and this kind of precedent cannot be set casually, otherwise, on the tenth day of the next month, there will be another pile of counterfeit flower notes, which will be annoying to death.

"Then... that's fine." The young man didn't force it, but his tone was full of disappointment, "I've been collecting it for a long time."

"Remember not to drop it in the water in the future, what we recognize here is the seal on the flower paper." Lin Shiyin said.

"Yeah." The young man nodded, "But the next collection of ten cards will probably be the Year of the Monkey."

After saying that, he took a deep breath and turned away.

Originally, Lin Shiyin didn't take this matter very seriously, but after changing the tokens and drawing prizes, she went out to breathe, and unexpectedly saw that young man again.

He was squatting in the alley between the hot pot restaurant and the inn, talking to a person whose back was turned to her.

"I didn't expect it to be unusable. It seems that we can't use Zuihanjiang to exchange some hotel money." The young man said, "What do you think we should do now, Baichoufei?"

The person with his back to her was silent for a moment, and said, "Then I can only sell calligraphy and paintings."

Lin Shiyin: "..."

Wait, wait, Baichoufei?

That is to say, the person who accidentally soaked the Tanhua paper in water and blurred the print——

Is it Wang Xiaoshi?

Judging from the cash-strapped state of the two of them, they probably ran out of money when they first came to Beijing.

In other words, they will meet Su Mengzhen soon? !
