Chapter 57 Special Mid-Autumn Festival Gifts [4], Part 1

He glared fiercely at Wang Yiping and angrily said, “Huh! You’re such a busybody. The whole day, this is not right and that is not right. What is right with you then? Watching singing and dancing, but you can still nitpick!”

The last bit was spoken a little loudly. It attracted Old General Mu and the yiniangs to look over at Wang Yiping. Wang Yiping was angered almost to death.

When Zi You’s song ended, the red-clothed woman’s dance ended too. The woman did not immediately leave, but twisted her body into a beautiful curtsy for good fortune.

Then Zi You, ShiYun, and the woman in red came in front of Old General Mu, Mu YingYi and Mu YingRui together. They were all holding embroidered pouches.

Zi you smiled and said, “This is You’er’s personally-made embroidered pouch. Inside are pills You’er created that can prevent poison and cure poison. They are for grandfather, father, and uncle to wear on their bodies to ensure safety.”

Old General Mu took the pouch from Zi You and happily hung it on his waist. “You’er, grandfather is very glad you’re so sensible and filial. Grandfather will always carry this pouch.”

Mu YingYi accepted the pouch from ShiYun. He also smiled and praised, “You’re very thoughtful, You’er. Uncle thanks you! Uncle will also always carry it with me.”

Mu YingRui’s eyes were not on the pouch, but on the red-clothed woman, Shui YouLian, in front of him.

Shui YouLian’s pair of frail and timid phoenix eyes on her bashful face was shy and charming. She secretly looked at Mu YingRui, eyes rippling with an amorous feeling.

Mu YingRui’s heart rate sped up and his mouth went dry. While taking the pouch, he took the opportunity to pinch Shui YouLian’s small hand.

Shu YouLian was startled. Her gaze at him was increasingly more soul-sucking.

Zi You clearly saw the two’s interaction, but she pretended to know nothing. “Grandfather, why don’t we go to the burning tower to guess riddles?”

The ancient Mid-Autumn Festival’s burning tower was made of broken bricks, tiles, tree branches and hay. It was a round kiln shape and was hollow in the middle. It would be burned at the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival and there would be a burning tower competition. The redder and fiercer it burned, the better and more prosperous the year.

Under the Mid-Autumn moon, lots of lanterns were hung in public places. People gathered together to guess the riddles written on the lanterns.

Because it was an activity that young men and women love, romantic rumors and stories frequently spread. So guessing Mid-Autumn lantern riddles meant trying to find a romantic partner.

But Zi You was only twelve years old and she was going with her grandfather. Others would not suspect that she had an ulterior motive.

Old General Mu was agreeing to Zi You when he heard “Ah!” He turned and saw Shui YouLian bent at the waist, gasping and out of breath. She crumpled onto the ground.

“Ah!” Zi You exclaimed with a hand over her mouth. “YouLian...”

At this time, Mu YingRui stepped forward and picked Shui YouLian up.

Success! Zi You secretly laughed. The next half was going to count on you, Shui YouLian. I hope you won’t let me down.

Zi You’s heart was happy, but face was filled with anxiety. She ran over to Mu YingRui and cried, “Father, quickly bring her into the house. She has asthma and can’t by in the wind.”

Mu YingRui didn’t bid his father goodbye. He carried Shui YouLian and ran to his study that was closest to the garden.

Zi You quickly took her leave and followed her father to the study.
