Chapter 229 It’s not up to you
Ying slapped her forehead helplessly and said, "Shen He, not everything can be said casually."
Shen He tilted his head slightly and said innocently, "What I said is the truth, why can't I say it?"
Ying explained with a mixture of laughter and tears: "We saw their private interactions as a couple, so we should just pretend we didn't see anything. If you speak so bluntly, it will make them very embarrassed."
Shen He nodded, not quite understanding: "I see, that's how it is. I didn't think it through."
Then Shen He walked solemnly to Xin Yang and Ling Hua and bowed. "Junior brother, junior sister, I'm sorry. I just said something out of turn. I didn't mean anything else. It's just that I haven't learned enough about getting along with others. I didn't consider your feelings. I hope you don't take it to heart."
Xin Yang quickly stepped forward to help Shen He up. "Senior Sister, we know you didn't mean that. Master has always taught us fellow disciples to help each other. How could we blame you?"
Linghua blushed as well, and whispered softly, "That's right, Senior Sister. You're actually making us feel a little embarrassed."
Shen He stood up, his expression slightly more relaxed, and he breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good, I was worried that you would misunderstand me because of me. It seems that I still need to learn more in this area."
Ying took over the conversation: "Alright, alright, it was all unintentional. I'll just be more careful next time. Um...we've already eaten our fill, so we won't bother you anymore. You guys can continue to enjoy your meal while we go to the temple fair first."
Xin Yang also echoed, "Yeah, Senior Sister, don't let this little thing affect your mood. We rarely have a day off, so let's have some fun."
Linghua nodded slightly: "Yes, Senior Sister, let's just continue to enjoy the excitement of the temple fair and don't think about this anymore."
After listening to everyone's words, Shen He smiled slightly and responded, "Well, I hope you have fun too."
After saying that, Shen He turned around and walked in another direction with Ying and Paimeng. Their figures soon blended into the bustling and lively crowd of the temple fair.
Looking at the backs of the few people walking away, Xinyang and Linghua looked at each other and couldn't help laughing.
"It turns out that you still have to be careful outside. It's easy to make a fool of yourself if you're not careful." Xinyang sighed with a smile.
"My reminder was correct, wasn't it? Fortunately, I met my senior sister. If I had met my master, with his eloquence, it would not be possible to explain it clearly in just a few words. Even if it was explained, my master might tell others about it in the future. Then we would become the topic of conversation after dinner. How embarrassing." Linghua said with a slight pout.
Xinyang nodded repeatedly and took Linghua's hand. "My dear wife, you are indeed foresighted. I will have to listen to you more in the future to avoid making such a fool of myself again."
Linghua raised the corner of her mouth and gently patted Xinyang's hand: "Hmph, I'm glad you know. Why don't you go get another pair of chopsticks quickly? Do you still want to wait for me to feed you?"
"It's not impossible." Xinyang said with a grin, and moved closer to Linghua, pretending to open his mouth.
Linghua reached out and gently pushed Xinyang. "You wish! Go get it quickly, or I'll eat it all."
Xinyang chuckled and stood up: "Okay, okay, I'll go get it right away. I'll also buy some other delicious food. Is there anything else you want to eat? If not, I'll just buy something else."
Linghua tilted her head and thought for a moment, then pointed to a stall not far away and said, "Those little cakes over there look pretty good, and the grilled fish over there too, let's buy some of both."
"okay."
Not long after, Xinyang came back with a bunch of delicious food in his hands. He showed them to Linghua with a smile on his face, "These are small cakes, grilled fish, and the fried skewers I just passed by..."
Linghua looked at the delicious food, her eyes sparkling. She smiled and said, "Well, it does look delicious. Thank you for your hard work. You should sit down and eat."
Xinyang responded with a smile, placed the delicacies on the table, picked up a small cake, and handed it to Linghua, "Come, try this small cake. Don't worry, there is no hot pot here."
Linghua glared at Xinyang: "Oh, how long ago was that? Forget it."
Linghua took the small cake and took a bite, her face full of satisfaction. "It's delicious and sweet, just to my taste."
Xinyang watched Linghua happily eat and picked up the grilled fish to eat as well. As he ate, he said, "You have good taste. Let's eat slowly. I just looked around and we've eaten, played, and seen enough. Next, let's go buy some clothes and we'll have a perfect day."
Linghua swallowed the food in her mouth and responded with a smile: "Yeah, let's go after we finish eating. The Lantern Festival is coming soon, so we can go and pick out a few things."
After they finished eating, they stood up and walked towards the clothing area. Along the way, people were coming and going, and the various stalls were bustling with people. There were also children running around holding sugar figurines, laughing and playing. The atmosphere was full of joy.
The two soon arrived at the clothing area, where the clothes were so diverse that it was dazzling.
Linghua's attention was immediately attracted by a light pink chest-length skirt embroidered with exquisite lantern patterns. The lantern embroidery was colorful, and the silk threads gleamed in the light, as if they were real lanterns. The hem of the skirt fluttered gently in the breeze, which was very beautiful.
Linghua walked forward, gently stroking the skirt, her eyes full of joy. She turned to Xinyang and said, "Look at this one, it's so suitable for the Lantern Festival. It will definitely look great on her."
Xinyang came over, took a closer look, and nodded in praise: "It is indeed beautiful. The pattern and workmanship are very suitable for the Lantern Festival. It may be a bit cold to wear it, but you can also ask the master for a magic weapon to keep warm, so that you can look good and warm at the same time." Xinyang looked at Linghua with a smile. In his mind, he had already imagined Linghua wearing this skirt and looking beautiful under the bright lights of the Lantern Festival.
After hearing this, Linghua's eyes lit up and she nodded and said, "That's a good idea. Master must have a suitable magic weapon. Let's go back and ask Master for it." With that, Linghua took the skirt into the fitting room.
When she changed and came out, Xinyang couldn't help but stare at her. Linghua had a graceful figure, and the light pink chest-length skirt made her look like a delicate flower blooming in spring. The delicate lantern pattern was faintly visible at the hem of her skirt, flickering as she walked, adding a touch of dreaminess and sweetness.
Xin Yang praised sincerely, "Wow, it's stunning, as beautiful as a fairy. It's made just for you. Buy it."
Linghua felt a little embarrassed by his praise. She lowered her head slightly, but the corners of her mouth couldn't help but rise.
Afterwards, Xinyang also picked out a moon-white robe with golden cloud patterns from among the many men's suits. The collar and cuffs were also embroidered with small bright lantern patterns, which matched Linghua's skirt perfectly.
The two paid the money, took the new clothes, and returned to Chen Ge Hu contentedly.
As soon as she entered the door, Linghua lay lazily on the sofa and breathed a long sigh of relief.
"Are you tired after shopping all night?" Xinyang stretched out his hands and gently pinched Linghua's jade feet, massaging them softly.
Linghua nodded. "Yeah, I didn't feel anything outside just now, but as soon as I got home, I felt this tiredness all of a sudden."
"Then take a hot bath and go to bed early." Xinyang continued to massage Linghua's feet and said, "A hot bath can relax you and relieve your fatigue. I'll prepare hot water for you." With that, Xinyang got up and walked towards the bathroom. After a while, the sound of water running was heard in the bathroom.
Linghua leaned on the sofa, her face full of contentment. Looking at Xinyang's busy back, her heart was filled with warmth. She said softly, "It's great to have you."
After the water was ready, Xinyang came out and said to Linghua with a smile, "The water is ready, you go and take a soak, I'll go sort out the new clothes we bought today." Linghua stood up, stretched, and walked towards the bathroom.
When Linghua was halfway through her bath, the bathroom door slowly opened and a cheesy voice came out, "Do you want me to rub your back?"
"do not want!"
"That's not up to you. You just said it yourself, after we get home, you can do whatever I want."
After saying that, Xinyang walked into the bathroom.
"What are you doing?"
"Dry"
Soon, rhythmic sounds of playfulness could be heard from the bathroom...
