Dusk is approaching, dyeing the gurgling stream with a golden edge.
In the artificial lotus pond next to it, the fragrance of blooming water lilies is blown in by the evening breeze, accompanied by the monotonous croaking of frogs, forming a quiet and peaceful little world.
After the two best friends finished watching the dance and listening to the music in the princess's Fengxi Pavilion, they came out of the courtyard of Fengxi Pavilion and found that the officials' families who had attended the Summer Garden Party had already left.
Xiao Yunyu and Xiao Yunchen have also returned home.
In other words, the princess only invited her and Sisi to the fireworks in the evening.
Li Sisi was watching dance and drinking in the hall in the afternoon, and was a little tipsy at this time.
When people are drunk, their behavior becomes more bold and reckless.
"Ladies, the dinner is about to begin. The princess asked me to call you over!" A dancer in a peach pink dress ran over and shouted with a smile on her face.
"Here we are." Li Sisi happily pulled Li Nian along and asked with a smile, "Beautiful sister, are you all the dancers kept by the princess in the mansion?"
"Yes," the dancer smiled brightly, as if she had thought of something very happy, and added, "Her Royal Highness the Princess treated us very well."
The dinner was held in the backyard of Nanyuan, where there is a large cherry blossom forest.
Large areas of cherry blossoms are in full bloom, and the fallen cherry blossoms on the ground are blown by the summer breeze, occasionally dancing a few times.
In the cherry blossom forest, there are beautiful women like clouds, all of them with smiling faces. Some gather in groups of three or two to chat and laugh, while others gather in groups to dance and play music.
The dancer who led the way also went into the cherry blossom forest to look for her companions.
Li Sisi looked at the scenery in front of her, her eyes full of surprise, and even whispered: "Sister, I hate that I'm not a man!"
She quickly pulled Li Nian into the cherry blossom forest and said, "Come on, let's go too."
At this time, the maids had already served the delicious dishes, as well as various bottles of fine wine.
"Beauties, fine wine, delicious food and open-air parties, I have to say that the princess knows how to have fun," Li Sisi looked around and exclaimed in admiration.
Li Nian pulled her arm and said, "Keep your voice down. Trouble comes from the mouth."
Li Sisi said carelessly, "What are you afraid of? Nian Nian, you're just too cowardly."
At this time, the sky had darkened, and the lanterns hanging on the cherry trees had already been lit. The flames swayed in the wind, adding a mysterious and dreamy color to the pink forest.
After three claps of "Pa Pa Pa", everyone in the cherry blossom forest stopped talking and looked towards the beauty couch.
The princess was wearing a red gilded long dress, and her long jet-black hair was casually tied up on her head with just a gold hairpin. A few strands of hair fell casually in front of her forehead, making her look charming and elegant.
Li Sisi blinked. Oh my god, did she accidentally enter some fairy forest?
The hand hanging by my side pinched myself hard. Damn, it hurts so much. This must not be a dream!
The princess's phoenix eyes swept over the crowd, and the corners of her lips curved gently as she opened her red lips and said, "Thank you all for coming. The Kong Garden in the east has prepared fireworks. After everyone has eaten and drunk enough, we will go and set off the fireworks together."
As soon as these words were spoken, the beauties clapped their hands excitedly and cheered.
"Let the feast begin!" As soon as the two words were spoken, everyone began to choose their favorite food.
Li Sisi also pulled Li Nian to the table and quickly selected food and put it on her own plate.
Li Nian was being pulled by her, but she couldn't help but look back in the direction of the princess, and saw several dancers holding plates approaching her, feeding her with a sweet smile.
Li Nian pulled Li Sisi, who was only focused on eating, and said, "Sister, look at the princess."
Upon hearing this, Li Sisi looked towards the princess and said with envy, "Oh my god, the princess is so lucky to be able to be so close to beautiful sisters. Ahhhh, I wish I could dress like a princess!"
Li Nian: ???
Is this how you understand it?
————
By the time everyone had eaten and drunk their fill, it was already completely dark.
The summer night was warm, and everyone walked out of the cherry blossom forest with lanterns in their hands and headed east along the stream.
The stars in the sky seemed to be falling down, and countless brilliant galaxies gathered together to illuminate the entire world.
The silver light of the half-moon falls into the stream, turning it into a Milky Way. The sound of the gurgling stream is accompanied by the silvery laughter of the beauties and the chirping of night insects.
It makes people unconsciously curious and surprised.
"Wow, is that a firefly? Nian Nian, look!"
Li Nian looked in the direction of her finger and saw dots of flickering light flying around in the grass by the stream.
"It should be!" Li Nian was also very surprised. He actually saw the legendary fireflies!
So, do fireflies really exist?
Those people online who claim to have seen fireflies, aren’t they just bragging and lying?!
Li Sisi murmured softly, "I really want to catch fireflies!"
Li Nian thought for a moment and said comfortingly, "When we leave here, we'll go to a small town in the south with mountains. There should be fireflies there. We can go out and catch fireflies every night."
Li Sisi's eyes lit up when she heard her say that: "Yes, then we can put the fireflies in... there are no glass bottles..."
Li Nian pursed her lips and chuckled when she heard her words.
After crossing the stream, getting on the stone bridge and turning right, you will arrive at the yard where the fireworks are set off.
Unlike the backyard, there is a row of guards guarding the wall here.
There was a long table in the middle of the yard, on which were fireworks of various shapes and colors.
Li Sisi couldn't wait to happily run into the crowd of beauties and discuss with them what kind of fireworks to use, who would set them off first, and how to set them off.
"Bang--"
As the first firework exploded, the sound of fireworks followed one after another.
