Heaven-Sent Farm Girl Builds Her Fortune And Captures His Heart-Chapter 643 - 642: White Plum Lamp (1)
Situ Nan was taken aback for a moment, then slightly narrowed his eyes and said, "Miss Luo is teasing me?"
Despite his words, he didn’t seem very bothered.
Luo Lingshu said, "I’ll pick one for you!"
She turned around, glanced around at the stall, and finally pointed to a white lantern painted with flowing water and Qingzhu, "Give me that lantern, I want to gift it to someone."
"Please wait a moment, miss, I’ll fetch it for you!" The stall owner said, cheerfully took down the lantern, and handed it to Luo Lingshu, saying, "That’ll be three taels of silver."
"Three taels?" Luo Lingshu furrowed her brows but still took out the money and paid the bill, then handed it to Situ Nan, saying, "Here, this is for you."
"Qingzhu softly sways, flowing water trickles!" Situ Nan smiled slightly, "This painting is indeed quite nice, I’ll gladly accept it."
Luo Lingshu’s eyes glimmered instantly, "You wanted to accept it yourself, the townsfolk can bear witness."
"Is there a problem?" Situ Nan looked at her in confusion.
Luo Lingshu shook her head, "No problem, well then, let’s be on our way!"
She smiled, pulling Shen Qinglan and Lian off into the crowd.
After walking quite a bit, Lian furrowed her brows and said, "Lingshu, how could you casually gift lanterns to others on the street?"
Luo Lingshu’s cheeks flushed slightly as she said, "Sister-in-law, you don’t know!"
"Can’t you gift them?" Shen Qinglan suddenly asked.
"It’s not that you can’t, it’s just that..." Lian frowned and cast a glance at Luo Lingshu before answering Shen Qinglan’s question, "During the flower lantern festival, gifting lanterns is a way to express feelings to your beloved. If the other party accepts it, it proves they’re interested in you, and once the festival is over, the man can propose to the woman’s family."
Shen Qinglan was slightly taken aback. How come Situ Nan didn’t seem to understand this meaning?
She watched Luo Lingshu’s shy expression, and quietly lowered her head in thought.
Wondering if Situ Nan accepted the lantern intentionally or unintentionally, if intentional, it meant he had affection for Luo Lingshu, which is why he accepted her feelings. But if unintentionally... wouldn’t that be an embarrassing mistake?
Although she hadn’t spent much time with Luo Lingshu, she couldn’t bear to see her saddened. Such an innocent and naive girl should be cherished.
"Cousin-in-law, what are you thinking?"
Seeing her not speaking for a while, Luo Lingshu waved her hand in front of her eyes, asking worriedly.
Shen Qinglan slightly raised her gaze, smiled lightly, and said, "I’m thinking whether to gift your cousin a lantern too."
"Great idea!" Luo Lingshu said, "I remember cousin likes white plum, why don’t we look for a White Plum Blossom Lamp."
"White plum?" Shen Qinglan was slightly taken aback.
Having spent so much time with Duan Yunfei, she didn’t know he liked white plum. Thinking about it, she felt rather embarrassed.
"Then let’s go find a White Plum Blossom Lamp," she laughed and said, "Let’s find a beautiful one."
"Okay!" Maybe because her beloved accepted the lantern, Luo Lingshu’s mood seemed even more vibrant than before.
Shen Qinglan and Lian exchanged smiles and the three continued walking together.
"Cousin-in-law, look over there!" Luo Lingshu pointed to the entrance of a tavern and said, "There’s a White Plum Blossom Lamp."
Shen Qinglan and Lian both looked up, indeed seeing a White Plum Blossom Lamp of half-human height hanging at the tavern’s entrance.
On the lantern was a painting of swirling snow and white plum, with white plum frozen by Bingxue, forming crystalline white plum ice spirits. At first glance, the snowy landscape and white plum in the painting both appeared vividly realistic.
