The imperial city in Nanjing is located on the right side of the inverted "天" character, on the east bank of Qingxi, and it will be crowded tonight. Zhang Ning knew that he could not find his younger sister and the others, so he planned to go home and ask first.

As soon as he walked to the door of his house, he saw Zhang Xiaomei looking around. Zhang Ning shouted from a distance with a little surprise: "There is a bustling place in the imperial city, but the little sister hasn't set off yet?" Zhang Xiaomei hurried over, happy and resentful: "I thought my brother couldn't live without him. If I don't come back, what's the point of being busy anymore?"

She looked alone in her eyes, and even ignored the strange guests beside her. Zhang Ning breathed a sigh of relief and smiled and said, "I promised you, how could I not come back."

"The fireworks in the year are the best this time. Let's go there quickly. Sister-in-law and the others left earlier." After all, Zhang Xiaomei was innocent and innocent. When she saw people, she threw the grinding of the hard-earned people. Her bright eyes turned into two beautiful moon bays, holding Zhang Ning's big hand.

Zhang Ning let go of her hand quietly, looking at her joyful appearance, fearing that she would pounce on her arms. Such a big girl would be a bit embarrassing if she was so intimate in front of Fang Ling.

He was about to make up a name for Fang Ling and introduce it for a little while, but Zhang Xiaomei had already spoken to Fang Ling: "This sister is so beautiful! Which daughter is the daughter of which family?"

"Xiaomei Zhang is the most beautiful." Fang Ling said with a smile, while taking off a pair of gold bracelets from her wrist, pulling Zhang Xiaomei's hand affectionately, and putting it on her with her own hands. "The first time we met, there was no good thing for my little sister, so we should wear this bracelet. In fact, such a pure girl should give her jade."

"Is this gold?" Zhang Xiaomei took it in front of her for a while, then looked at Zhang Ning, and took off the bracelet, "Sister, I can't accept something as expensive as you for no reason."

Fang Ling smiled and said, "She really listens to you."

A pair of bracelets weigh about one or two taels, and all gold is worth a few taels of silver at this time. Ordinary people have a huge sum of money, but it is not too expensive in Fang Ling and even Zhang Ning's eyes. Zhang Ning said: "This is your sister Fang's wish, please wear it."

"Thank you, Sister Fang." After hearing this, Zhang Xiaomei couldn't let it go and held it in her hand. She probably didn't know that the thin cloth that Zhang Ning gave her when she came back was worth two or three times that of the pair of bracelets.

After meeting, the three of them did not stay much and walked straight east. Being with Zhang Xiaomei was very worry-free. She only knew the name "Sister Fang" and did not ask anything, and she didn't even talk nonsense. She even saved her words to make up for mischief. On the way, Zhang Ning explained to her little sister quietly, but unexpectedly she said, "I was too lazy to ask, so I could not lie to my brother." It turned out that she was a sensible person.

On both sides of the Yu River, especially near Chang'an Street, it is indeed a crowd of people, with colorful lanterns hanging on the trees, just like "flowers blooming at night". The tall city tower is bright and bright, singing and dancing to the peace. The music of the palace bells and drums, and the sound of silk and bamboo orchestras in the streets and alleys, is like a scene of joy with the people.

The most dazzling one is the fireworks blooming in the sky. With a bang, a large flower exploded in the night sky, and in an instant, it turned into thousands of flowers. The fireworks are dazzling, but the most beautiful one is not the fireworks in the sky, but the fireworks shining in the beautiful eyes of the little girl. The huge flowers turned into a shiny shiny in her eyes, becoming smaller, but like drizzle, Zhang Ning couldn't say warm or happy in her heart.

It turns out that when you see someone happy, you will be even happier. This feeling is really true, and you can't find any reason.

"Brother." She turned her head and looked up at Zhang Ning, "What we welcomed in the spring is not the forsythia, but the fireworks!"

Zhang Ning was gentle and patient, he didn't know, but Fang Ling saw that he was extremely gentle. He had never seen anyone with such a good temper as him, nor had he seen him as gentle. He said slowly: "Forsythia and fireworks are not the same kind of flowers."

"Everyone will bloom and they all look so beautiful, so why aren't it a kind of flower?" Zhang Xiaomei said in a coquettish tone, and naturally took Zhang Ning's arm, without avoiding the soft breasts leaning against his arm.

Zhang Ning smiled and said, "Okay, my little sister said they are all flowers, that's it."

Zhang Xiaomei raised her mouth again: "But my brother seems to be right, they are not the same. Fireworks are as big as they flash in the sky and they will disappear. It would be better if it wasn't so fleeting."

"The blooming of the night sky is gorgeous, and fleeting is regret, and it is gorgeous and regretful, so it is sad." Zhang Ning raised his head and looked at the sky slowly and said.

This sentence was said to Xiaomei, but Fang Ling, who was parallel, made her nose sour. He also heard him continue to speak patiently to Xiaomei: "Forsythia is a living thing, and fireworks are actually a dead thing, and its beauty is just an illusion."

"Is it an illusion?" The little girl looked up at Zhang Ning, then looked up at the sky, as if she was thinking about something.

Zhang Ning told her tirelessly: "The fireworks are filled with gunpowder. Once the gunpowder is ignited, the air in the fireworks will suddenly expand and increase, and then it explodes with a 'bang' and rushes into the air."

The little sister looked at his face with curiosity and dreams. Seeing this, he said again: "Think about it, what will happen if the water boiling kettle is crushed to death, then put a plug into the spout and burn the fire underneath?"

"Ah, I understand!" The little girl smiled.

The brother and sister said something that was too small to be small, and they could be said to be nonsense, but Fang Ling felt indescribable. His tone, his patience to make the girl understand, would be very attentive even if it was an irrelevant thing, and his level of concern was sincere in every word and action.

Fang Ling is not a jealous person, and she has any jealous capital. Once she had made a living, she could not change her identity no matter what. She could only see some things but never get them. She could never fight for those things justified, so how could she be jealous? But now she couldn't help but become jealous of a teenage girl... There is no reason. One is family affection and the other is a relationship between men and women. It's just that she is jealous.

She finally couldn't help but say sourly: "You have to be reborn in the next life, and I regret not being your sister."

"Good brother." Zhang Xiaomei said in a coquettish voice. After hearing the words, she relied on him happily, not caring about Fang Ling's sour words.

Fang Ling was jealous and changed her polite and polite style at first, and blurted out: "Brother can't accompany you for the rest of your life. It will take you one or two years to get married at your age. Your brother should have started a family long time ago. Then everyone will take care of their own..."

After hearing this, Zhang Xiaomei looked at Fang Ling pitifully. Before this, both girls seemed unhappy.

Zhang Ningbai opened his mouth and didn't know what to say. It turned out that it was two women in the same drama.

At this moment, a voice suddenly said, "Zhang Ping'an! That's right, ha, when did Ping'an come back to Nanjing?"

When I looked back, I saw three scholars dressed in a smile at him. Two tall and one short, and the scene in front of me was indescribable. Two tall and one short, and the scene was indescribable: two tall and one short stood in the middle, and one short was lowered. At first glance, the three looked like a family of three, with a child in the middle, and the other two scholars were probably a couple of people. The short man in the middle had the deepest impression in Zhang Ning's memory, and it was not someone else but Yang Sihai. Zhang Ning had humiliated him for being short, of course the person who did this was Zhang Ning of the past; now when he suddenly saw him, he immediately understood why Zhang Ning used to talk about Yang Sihai's height, which was really too obvious.

Although Yang Sihai is short, his face is steady, which makes the other two people's smiles very frivolous. These three people are classmates from Yingtian Gongyuan last year. At least the outstanding students among the students. Some of them may have won the title of "Gui" and those who have achieved fame and reputation in the Juren. The chances of entering the officialdom in the future are very high. At that time, they will be fellow villagers, classmates, and relationships that can take care of each other in the same year... And Zhang Ning understands that this relationship is like modern college classmates. After entering society, maybe that kind of people will help you more sincerely and powerfully. If you want to make a move on the Internet, you have to pave it.

Zhang Ning hurriedly bowed with his fists: "Brother Sihai, Brother Luo, Brother Liang... I planned to visit him in the first month of the year, but I didn't want to meet him by chance today."

The three of them also stood still and bowed in a good manner. Lao Chou, who was wearing green satin on the left, bent down and stood up and smiled, "It seems that the time is not the time for us to meet, which has disturbed Brother Ping'an's blessing?"

The two old cousins ​​who were wearing cotton jackets on the right agreed, "Brother Ping'an traveled with his family, which makes people envious."

Brocade Luo's cousin smiled and said, "It's as beautiful as a flower, as the passing years!"

Yang Sihai advised with a serious look on his face: "Don't joke with Brother Ping'an, the little lady next to Brother Ping'an is obviously a girl who is not married, and maybe she is the sister of Brother Ping'an's family."

Zhang Ning nodded slightly, and the "first impression" he had regained. Yang Sihai was not old but a little experienced. He was so calm when facing a person who had humiliated him. Just this calmness was not like an ordinary person.

"Brother Sihai is right. She is my little sister." Zhang Ning smiled and gently touched Fang Ling's waist. "You are right to say that you are beautiful in the flowers."

Fang Ling lowered her eyes and made a regular and implicit look, and bowed her knees slightly and said, "I have seen three young men." The younger sister was a little reluctant to greet her. Zhang Ning casually said over and did not say Fang Ling's name. Of course, Yang Sihai and the others would not ask, how could she ask her friends' etiquette for their family members? Unless they came to introduce themselves.

Fang Ling looked low-key and well-educated, and the usual little jacket she wore tonight and her unjewelled outfit, she looked like there was no trace of a woman? Even if she clearly said that she was a prostitute|female, it might not be easy for people to believe. Zhang Ning looked at her and thought in his heart that the high-end prostitute|Journal of the Ming Dynasty was not an ordinary talent.

"Three of you are so interested, how did you make an appointment with each other?" Zhang Ning said with a smile.

Mr. Luo congratulated: "Brother Sihai won the Gui List this autumn and is about to go to Beijing to compete for the spring exam. I originally wanted to invite him to have a small gathering on the Lantern Festival. Brother Sihai is about to leave again. I can't wait for the Lantern Festival, so I have to be able tonight to be the festival."

Zhang Ning looked happy and said happily: "Congratulations to Brother Sihai for winning the list of osmanthus. I didn't know something a while ago! I wish Brother Sihai to stand out in the spring exam next year and be proud of the spring breeze in the future and see all the flowers in Chang'an in one day."

Yang Sihai clasped his fists and said, "Boral Ping'an's good words."

"In this way, let's make an appointment. I'll take my family back first and go to find you later." Zhang Ning said.

Mr. Luo smiled and said, "Brother Ping'an really wants to give up this beautiful scenery?"

Zhang Ning looked dissatisfied: "Brother Sihai will go to Beijing soon, and his family will not leave at home. How can we compare with each other?"

Mr. Luo dressed the best, probably the richest among the scholars. He said, "Brother Ping'an said very well. I have also seen the fireworks in the imperial city, so we will make an appointment to go to the Qinhuai River to meet at the teahouse south of Wuding Bridge."

Zhang Ning then said goodbye to the three of them for a while and turned around to send the two girls back. Zhang Xiaomei said quietly: "All of them are scholars. Why are these people not like their brothers? They are so annoying!"

Just now, Fang Ling and Xiaomei had a disagreement, but in a blink of an eye it turned into the same front again. Fang Ling also said: "They are all vulgar people, full of official addiction and wealth."

Zhang Ning smiled and said, "If I'm good, why should I buy their account?"

Fang Ling said coquettishly: "You are also a traitor."

Zhang Ning said softly: "I only realized that I was too small when I met you, but I was too small to have too little money. If I don't do my own thing well, I can't do anything. Do you understand..."

Fang Ling's face suddenly bloomed in spring | She bit her lips lightly and said affectionately: "I understand."

She sighed grievance not long ago, and Zhang Ning's words made her happy again. Her emotions became like the weather in May.
