Thanks for the rewards from Painful Chu, Feng Yang Book Friends and Old Yao Brothers!
He Lan Minzhi really wanted to try it out and also wanted to go feel her charm again, but seeing He Lan Minyue on the side with disheveled clothes and a bit of a wolf-like appearance, she gave up the idea.
There's a stunningly beautiful younger sister who came along to play, and it can't be taken lightly, she needs to be well taken care of, otherwise something unexpected might happen. Fortunately, just now no men rushed over to insult He Lan Min Yue, those passionate men are not as easy to deal with as girls, if something happens, he won't even have time to cry.
Of course, with a younger sister by your side, you can't do anything bad or else you'll corrupt the little girl!
Several maids came up to help them tidy their clothes. He Lan Min ordered a few maids to cover He Lan Min Yue's face with a veil, trying to conceal her beauty as much as possible.
The young girls who were blocked by He Lan An Hong and others had mostly dispersed, He Lan Min Zhi, the troublemaker, had hidden herself, they couldn't find their target, so they gave up and went to look for another handsome young man.
Only on March 3rd of every year, young women can openly show their love to the men they like without being criticized. Young girls who come out to play with various purposes are not willing to let go of any "prey" they have set their eyes on and chase after them crazily. Some people are not really interested in any young masters, but just join in the fun for the sake of it.
He Lan Minzhi slipped away to the back of a willow tree while several maidservants were helping He Lan Minyue get dressed. Under the cover of the willow tree, he looked into the distance and saw several scenes similar to what had just happened around him. There were large groups of girls or men rushing towards a place, some fleeing in disarray, but there were fewer pursuers than before.
This scene made He Lan Mucius laugh, the social atmosphere of the prosperous Tang Dynasty was too unexpected, and the crazy behavior of young men and women was really interesting. In his later life, the interaction between men and women was not as crazy as this. If there was a camera to take pictures, it would be great to replay them when he had nothing to do.
He Lan Minyue had already dressed up and ran to He Lan Min's side, He Lan Min looked over and saw that his sister was almost only showing her eyes, with the rest of her face covered by a veil. But thinking about this made him even more curious, fearing being struck again by an unknown situation with a girl, he didn't dare go to crowded places either. He himself also covered his mouth and nose, just strolling along the riverbank not far from Zhan Bridge.
Although there were fewer people in this area, there were still many passersby. The brother and sister had covered their noses and eyes, but their eyes were still exposed, and the little face that was exposed was quite attractive. Moreover, there were several beautiful maids following them, which made the passersby glance at them from time to time. When men looked at them, they had a somewhat disdainful yet envious and jealous gaze. The girls' gazes when looking at the brother and sister were fervent and excited, frequently exchanging flirtatious glances. Many bold young women even wanted to rush over and give them flowers or something, but were stopped by the people guarding the brother and sister of He Lan Min.
"Master, there are too few of us. If a large group of girls rushes over again, we won't be able to stop them. Let's go somewhere with fewer people!" He Lan Anhong requested in a low voice, as if facing a great enemy, asking He Lan Minzhi to go to a place with even fewer people to avoid accidents.
The young master of the house was once surrounded by palace maids when he first entered the palace due to his good looks, and almost got taken advantage of by those fierce palace maids. Since then, the madam repeatedly ordered that when the young master goes out, he must be well-guarded to prevent any "ill-intentioned" girls from taking advantage of him or being "snatched away". Having just experienced such a "frightening" scene, He Lan An Hong dared not to be careless and strictly ordered his subordinates to prevent anyone from approaching. He also hoped that He Lan Min's brother and sister would go to places with fewer people.
He is already regretting it, today he didn't bring more manpower when going out.
"Alright, Uncle An Hong, let's go over there!" He Lan Minzhi agreed reluctantly, but after looking at He Lan Minyue beside her, she also agreed to He Lan Anhong's request and walked towards a flatter riverbank further away from the Zhan Bridge.
There was a small wine house with a curtain, He Lan An Hong suggested that He Lan Minzhi go there to have some tea and rest his feet.
He Lan Minzhi agreed without much thought, but instead of heading directly to the wine tower, they strolled around the nearby area, hand in hand with He Lan Minyue, weaving through the willow trees and chatting about the recent interesting events. The several young maidservants following behind them were also chattering excitedly, looking shocked and amazed.
Several young maidservants were also visiting such a lively place for the first time, and the scenes they saw and encountered made them very excited.
They walked forward to a place with few tourists, the ground was covered with all kinds of flowers and grasses, small unknown flowers were swaying in the gentle breeze, it was really beautiful. He Lan Min Yue, who was originally walking with He Lan Min, couldn't help but feel a surge of childish excitement, she happily shouted and ran forward, holding up her shirt hem to pick some pretty little flowers.
"Brother, come and see quickly, these flowers are really beautiful. Let's pick some back and put them in a vase at home, it will definitely look great!"
"Brother, what are these flowers called? Come and take a look..."
He Lan Minyue was waving and calling out to He Lan Mianyue to come over.
Qing'er, Xue'er and several other little maidservants followed He Lan Minyue as she ran over to pick the various colored flowers that had bloomed on the ground. They also broke off willow branches to weave into small hats, which they each wore on their heads. Their clear laughter echoed through the willow forest from time to time.
He Lan Minzhi followed and passed by, but just stood on one side watching a group of young girls playing.
Beautiful scenery and beautiful people, it's very pleasant to see, the vitality of youth can infect anyone, and even looking from afar is a kind of enjoyment.
He Lan An Hong's guards also knew their place and walked far away, trying not to disturb them.
A group of people walked and played, reveling in the warm sunshine on a spring day.
After crossing two low hills, and circling around several tall willow trees, He Lan Min Yue, who was holding a bunch of freshly picked wildflowers and jumping about, saw that in the distance there was another cluster of very beautiful flowers blooming, and immediately called out to He Lan Min to go over there.
He Lan Min smiled as she watched her sister, who had abandoned her reserve and was now running wildly with abandon. She nodded in response, walked over with her hands behind her back, and cautioned her sister to be careful not to trip or bump into anything, lest she start crying later on.
At He Lan Min's command, He Lan Min Yue had already run ahead, and several maidservants followed after her.
He Lan Minyue quickly ran towards the cluster of blooming wildflowers, her attention fully focused on the pretty little flowers. She didn't notice that behind several thick willow trees, a few people were approaching, and He Lan Minyue almost collided with them as she ran by at high speed.
He Lan Min was startled and hastily shouted loudly at He Lan Min Yue to be more careful, while also quickly running over.
He Lan Minzhe rushed to the front of those people, protecting He Lan Minyue while also wanting to apologize for her recklessness. However, after seeing their faces clearly, he was shocked and stunned, standing there in a daze.
"How is it you?" Hulan Mingzi almost simultaneously exclaimed with her opponent.
The people they met were the beautiful girl who dressed as a man and her followers whom they had encountered on their way here.
What a coincidence! It's really "narrow road meets enemies"!
