C15 (1/2)

On the Double Seventh Festival, there were bright red lanterns and colorful banners everywhere. The gorgeous fireworks in the air scattered and fell in all directions.

The streets were crowded, with Zi Lan and Feng Xiwu slowly moving forward in the dense crowd.

I'll see the blue sky this night.

Originally, it was only the day when the two of them met again. After a long period of time, it became the day when the young ladies would choose their husbands. Some men would also take the opportunity to take a look at the beauties of the women in the pavilion.

Moreover, some powerful men would choose beautiful women from poor families to take home as concubines.

However, this was at the feet of the emperor. No one had ever dared to be so bold. His Majesty was also a wise ruler today. He lived a life of prosperity and rarely bullied anyone.

After guessing a few riddles, Feng Xiwu started to feel bored. The group of people in front gathered together, it was unknown what they were doing.

Feng Xiwu moved closer, and in the middle of the crowd, there was a little boy as well as a middle-aged man dressed in jade robes. The man looked to be about three big and tall, with his hands on his hips as he loudly berated the curled up boy.

”Tell me what to do. I made such expensive clothes just like that. They're all dirty because of you.”

The man stretched out his neck and shouted loudly.

”Look at your face, you look so restless. Do you see this jade pendant?” The transparent dark green color, almost broke, can you afford it?! ”

The little boy looked to be around twelve to thirteen years old, and was about the same age as Feng Xiwu. He stood in the crowd with a deathly pale face, his expression indiscernible with his lowered head.

”It's just clothes. Shouldn't washing be enough? Why make it so difficult for a child?” Someone in the crowd couldn't help but speak up.

”Yeah, isn't your jade pendant fine too? Children also didn't do it on purpose. Why do you have to get mad at him on the Double Seventh Festival?”

The middle-aged man glared at him with anger, ”Your father is not in a good mood today, what's wrong? Why don't you compensate me? Why don't you come to my house and work hard to pay off my debts!”
