Chapter 19: Su Jinrou and the little rabbit lantern, which one will her father choose?



Li Shengyi definitely dislikes this mutton-fat jade pendant.

She simply didn't dare to like it.

Others may not be satisfied with the beginning of their journey into a book, but the plot will always turn around halfway through.

Unlike her, who met three male supporting characters at the beginning and none of them had a good ending in the end.

Especially her father, he couldn't be deader.

This little cannon fodder died earlier than her father.

After putting the mutton-fat jade into Qin Songmo's hand, Li Shengyi changed his previous attitude of not accepting it.

"Daddy, please keep it. Maybe it will be useful."

[Although Shen Wangchen is your subordinate, it is better for you to keep some of your 'private property' hidden.]

[No matter how many people I trust, they can't compare to myself. I'm afraid something might happen along the way, like Chen Wangchen and Su Jinrou getting together early.]

[With this jade pendant, you don't have to worry about your safety anymore.]

Qin Songmo didn't expect that she left the mutton-fat jade to him with such an idea.

The jade pendant in his hand was warm and delicate, and it was obvious that it had been held and played with by someone all year round.

The quality is excellent, even if there is no "tiger talisman" meaning behind the jade pendant.

As long as she took the jade pendant to the pawnshop, the money she got would be enough for her to have food and clothing for the rest of her life.

Qin Songmo pursed his lips and whispered, "Shengyi gave everything to Daddy, what should I do with Shengyi?"

Upon hearing this, Li Shengyi raised his eyes and met his gaze.

At the end, she frowned and said, "Daddy, don't you have money? Shengyi lives well in the mansion, eats well, drinks well, and has no worries about food and clothing."

[Just kidding, if I were to go against my conscience and collect so many good things, wouldn't all of you doubt my identity?]

"I'd like to accept it. If Su Jinrou and Chu Huaifeng team up in the future, I can run away with the money I have. But it's his mother's. The silver you gave me has an official seal on it!"

[And this jade pendant, the head ornament Su Jinrou gave me. If I were to sell any of it, I'd be in jail the next moment.]

Li Sheng is full of hatred!

I hate that she wore a fictional novel with so many red tape.

She wanted to use the money to open a shop and make a fortune.

With her small body, she would probably be laughed at if she approached anyone to discuss cooperation.

Li Shengyi sighed again in his heart and felt that there was no hope in life.

If you really want to do me a favor, buy me something inexpensive, something small and not too big, without a label.

If the Prime Minister's Mansion is raided in the future, I can still take those little things and run away. Big things are not allowed. My small body can't carry them.

Qin Songmo clenched the jade pendant in his hand and whispered, "Since you kindly gave it to me, as a thank you, I can buy you anything you want today."

Li Shengyi thought he had heard wrongly.

She blinked, confirming that the person in front of her didn't look joking, and a bright smile suddenly broke out on her little face.

"Daddy, you're so handsome! I knew you were the best. When are we leaving? Now?"

This was the first time Qin Songmo saw his little daughter express genuine joy.

Thinking of how timid and cautious she was before.

He lowered his eyes and looked at the little boy in front of him who was jumping three feet high while holding a Cuju, and his mind was filled with complicated thoughts.

-

The Daughter's Day is the second largest festival in the Great Chu State, and its grandeur is only slightly less than that of the Spring Festival.

The capital city will become bustling two days before the Girls' Day.

The curfew throughout the capital was lifted, and every household was brightly lit. Young ladies no longer had to be bound by the rule of not leaving the main door or the secondary door, and could stroll freely on the streets by putting on masks.

Girls' Day is also the day when unmarried daughters from each family compete in embroidery skills.

Every year during the Girls' Day, the entire capital becomes extremely lively.

After Li Shengyi and Qin Songmo had dinner, they couldn't wait to leave the house.

The carriage drove all the way to the market entrance. When noisy shouting came to my ears, the carriage door was pulled open by the breeze.

"Master, there are too many people ahead, and the carriage can't get in."

This was one of the rare times that Qin Songmo went out to join in the fun.

He had put on a silver-white mask on his face in advance, even though the mask covered his handsome face.

His angular chin still couldn't hide his handsomeness.

Li Shengyi was dressed in an apricot-yellow long gown by Lu Xing. She was still young, with two buns on her head and a fox mask on her face, which made her look cute.

The carriage couldn't go in, so Li Shengyi pulled the people around him and said impatiently, "Dad, let's walk over."

Qin Songmo saw her anxiety, and after accompanying her out of the carriage, he refused the cloak that Qingfeng offered her.

I was almost dragged into the market by my little daughter, which was different from the bustling market during the day.

The brightly lit streets are crowded with people at night.

"Candied Haws! Miss, would you like some candied haws?"

"Guess the riddle and win the lantern, young master! Would you like to see this year's riddle? A new one from the new top scholar!"

"Young masters and young ladies passing by, please take a look! Tonight's acrobatic performance is about to begin!"

......

The streets are bustling with activity.

Only Li Shengyi was sighing.

[It's so annoying! Why am I so short that I can't see anything! ]

The streets are crowded with people.

Li Shengyi was just a five-year-old kid. She couldn't even watch the fun. She could only see the waists of everyone passing by...

The little kid was so angry that he wanted to curse his mother.

I felt my body lighten.

When she blinked again and looked at the scene in front of her, she immediately took in all the surrounding scenes.

"How is it? Can you see clearly?"

Although Qin Songmo has been taking medicine for many years and is in poor health, he is tall and stands out even in a crowd.

Li Shengyi was now being held on his shoulders and sitting. The father and daughter were both a little nervous as it was the first time they were doing this, and their bodies were a little stiff.

Li Shengyi held Qin Songmo's head tightly with both hands. She was a little nervous the moment before, but after seeing the scene around her, all the nervousness in her heart disappeared.

A wide smile played on her lips, and she carefully sat on his shoulder, giggling.

"Daddy, look over there, there's a rabbit lantern!"

Qin Songmo heard the laughter coming from above his head. Hiding under the mask and no longer having to show his true face, he slightly raised his thin lips.

Holding her legs with both hands, he said in a deep voice, "Do you like it?"

Li Shengyi nodded and just said "I like it" when he suddenly caught a glimpse of a familiar figure flashing in the corner.

[Oh my god, what happened? Why did Su Jinrou run out of the palace?]

[Hey hey hey dad, please don't move forward. I can't see who's next to her. It's a strange face. I don't recognize it.]

If I tell my father now that Su Jinrou has left the palace, will I still be able to get the little rabbit lantern?

Qin Songmo, who had stopped at some point, had a rolling throat.

The rabbit lantern is right in front of them, and they can get it by answering ten puzzles correctly.

On the other side, Su Jinrou was with a strange man...
