Exile opening: I won with the Universal Maker

Chapter 307 Qiqiao Needle

Shengjing on the night of Qixi Festival is lively and noisy.

Fireworks were blooming in the sky above Shengjing, the main streets were all brightly lit, vendors were shouting vigorously, girls were either traveling together, or spending the festive season with their sweethearts, and the squares in the city were packed to the brim.

There were lanterns and festoons up and down in Prince An's mansion, and lights were everywhere.Every woman dresses up carefully and dresses up to attend the banquet held in the palace.

Shen Yuexi is always used to wearing short clothes for horseback riding, so she also changed into a long skirt this time.

"My sister wears this hairpin, it was specially chosen for you by my sister."

Shen Lan picked up a jade hairpin and inserted it on Shen Yuexi's hair bun. The end of the jade hairpin was in the shape of an orchid, and three strings of thin silver chains hung down, with white pearls hanging from the end, swinging brightly under the light.

"There is also a phoenix hairpin, which is a gift from the Queen."

As Shen Lan said, she picked up another crested hairpin and inserted it into her bun from the other side.The crested hairpin also has a few strands of golden tassels hanging down, with red pearls at the end.

Shen Yuexi shook her head, pouted and said, "Sister, why don't you wear it, because it keeps ringing on your head when you walk."

The pearls will keep bumping into each other as she walks, making a pleasant sound.

Shen Lan covered her mouth with a smile and said, "Bu Yao is meant to make noise. Could it be that you are worried about making noise when you walk, and it's not easy to hide yourself? We all have carefully dressed ourselves up, and you are the only one who is special, isn't it good?"

Shen Yuexi thought about it, so she stopped insisting and picked up the mirror to look around.

Ever since she came to this world, she has always focused on running for her life, and rarely has time to take care of herself.Developed the habit of not liking to wear jewelry.But tonight is Qixi Festival, everyone is dressed up, she can't be too casual.

The parrot Liuli landed on the dressing table in front of her, folded its wings, tilted its head to look at her, and said, "Yuexi, good luck."

Shen Yuexi touched Liuli with her hand, and said with a smile: "Tonight is Qixi Festival, you are the mother, so go to the hall to join in."

Shen Lan said: "Sister, it won't fly away, will it?"

"Liu Li is doing well," Shen Yuexi patted Liu Li on the head, "It never flies around."

Parrot Liuli is not like the thrush that flew away before, even though it is not locked in a cage, it will not fly away.Probably because Shen Yuexi scratched it when he was free, and fed him diligently. He liked to stay with Shen Yuexi very much.When Shen Yuexi and Su Mo were making hot air balloons, Liuli would fly to the side of the two and say something from time to time, making the boring work more interesting.

The two dressed up and came to the hall.

According to Shen Yuexi's idea, everyone should have a delicious meal on the night of Qixi Festival, and then fly to a high place in a hot air balloon to enjoy the scenery.

In order to achieve this goal, she specially asked Big Bear to make a gourmet killer - ice cream balls.Keep it in the kitchen with ice cubes and serve it to everyone after the meal.

When she came to the hall, Xiao Zhuo greeted her and led her to sit on the seat, looked at the ornaments on her head, smiled and said: "You are well dressed today."

Shen Yuexi smiled and said: "I have always looked good, but I am always busy on weekdays and have no chance to dress up."

Su Mo urged from the side: "Sister-in-law, let's eat quickly. I want to take a hot air balloon."

Before Shen Yuexi could answer, a servant ran into the hall and said:
"King Ping arrived, and the villain said he would report it to King An, but he said no, he has already come in."

Xia Lan was drinking bird's nest soup, and when she heard this, she was so frightened that the spoon dropped on the table.Yang Cong and Feng Zhang next to her stood up directly, and Ji Yunyan, who was talking to Mei Dai, also looked up at the entrance of the hall.The originally lively hall suddenly became cold.All eyes turned to the entrance of the hall.

Wearing a purple robe, Xiao Beiheng quickly entered the hall surrounded by a group of guards carrying gifts.

Xiao Zhuo and Shen Yuexi stood up, the former stared sharply at Xiao Beiheng.

Xiao Beiheng also seemed to know that his arrival was a bit cold and uncomfortable, so he straightened his neckline with one hand.Coughing, before opening his mouth, the parrot Liuli spread his wings and flew over, yelling around him:
"Bei Heng, you are sorry for me, Bei Heng, you are sorry for me."

The voice sounded too suddenly, everyone was stunned, and looked at Xiao Beiheng in unison.

Su Mo couldn't help but burst out laughing first, followed by Shen Yuexi, and then Yang Cong, Li Wan and others all laughed.With laughter, the frozen atmosphere in the hall was finally broken.

Xiao Beiheng smiled, stepped forward to Xiao Zhuo and Shen Yuexi and cupped his hands: "Brother, sister-in-law. Because of some busy work, I came late. A little courtesy is not a respect."

After finishing speaking, he turned back to the guards behind and said, "Bring the gift."

The guard brought the gifts to the hall and showed Shen Yuexi one by one.After reading it, Shen Yuexi ordered someone to collect it, and warmly greeted Xiao Beiheng and said, "We are waiting for you, let's eat first."

She was also a little afraid of Xiao Beiheng at first, but because of Hua Duoduo's incident, she had dealt with Xiao Beiheng first, and now looking at Xiao Beiheng, she no longer had the same fear as before.What's more, people still come to the door with gifts,

Xiao Zhuo came to Xiao Beiheng and stretched out his hand, Xiao Beiheng also stretched out his hand, silently shaking both hands together.

During this period, the parrot Liuli kept flying around Xiao Beiheng, repeating that sentence constantly.With it active atmosphere, everyone relaxes.Shen Yuexi held back her laughter, and greeted Liuli, "Stop talking about Liuli, come and eat peanuts."

Liuli yelled around Xiao Beiheng a few more times, and then flew to Shen Yuexi with a lot of enthusiasm, and came down to comb the feathers with her mouth.The servants brought steaming dishes into the hall like flowing water.

Su Mo said: "Bei Heng, come and sit with me. Today my sister-in-law said that there is one thing we have never eaten..."

Xiao Beiheng was a little disbelieving, so he sat down and said to Su Mo, "Is there anything else I haven't eaten?"

It wasn't until the servants brought the ice cream balls that he realized that he had never eaten this cold and sweet thing.

Shen Yuexi's carefulness this time caught everyone's preferences.Women were the majority present, and they were powerless against the sweet and cool ice cream. Everyone ate at least two ice cream scoops and were full of praise.

Everyone enjoyed the delicious food first, and then ate the ice cream, feeling satisfied.Su Mo talked about taking a hot air balloon again.Everyone was full of interest and wanted to sit down, and it was impossible to tell the order.

Shen Yuexi made a mistake.With so many people, it is definitely not possible to pretend at one time.But she doesn't know how to arrange who goes first and who goes next.Full of friends and relatives.

In the end, it was Mei Dai who rescued her.

"Today is Qixi Festival, also known as the Qiqiao Festival. According to the custom, we should go through a needle to beg for cleverness tonight, right?"

"Yes, that's right," Li Wan raised her hand in agreement, "In previous years, during the Begging Festival, we would have a needle-threading begging competition in our Marquis."

Mrs. Li proudly put down the half-eaten duck pear and said, "Wan'er always hisses first."

Shen Yuexi was taken aback.

Thread a needle?Is it something to do with needlework?

She only knows the festival of Qixi Festival, but she doesn't know the specific customs of this festival.

"So we're going to have a competition tonight," Mei Dai looked at Shen Yuexi with a smile, "The ranking of the competition, No. 1 will take the hot air balloon first, and the second seat in the back row. How about it?"

Everyone raised their hands in favor.

Mei Dai looked at Shen Yuexi, and Shen Yuexi said: "Sister Mei's idea is good, but what kind of needle do you want to wear?"

"Seven Skillful Needles," Mei Dai held up a red silk thread and needle, "we wait for the competition, everyone is in the courtyard, facing the moon, use the silk thread to pass through the needle holes. The first to pass through seven needles is the winner. "

As soon as she heard that silk thread was going to be used to pierce the needle hole, Shen Yuexi's claws immediately went numb.

She remembered the embarrassment that she couldn't get through the pinhole when she and Su Mo were sticking hot air balloons together.

It turns out that on Qixi Festival there is also a competition to thread a needle.This is terrible, this is not her specialty at all.

"A hot air balloon can take four people at a time. There are quite a lot of people here, so we will play in groups of four." After explaining the rules clearly, Mei Dai turned to Shen Yuexi, "Sister, you are the owner of this room, so the grouping is up to you Bar."

Shen Yuexi breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, it is a group game.If it's a one-on-one match, she really needs to pretend to be sick to refuse.
