This was also a small trifle that Qin Yi had specifically found in order to please Su Pan’er.
However, it seed that Ke’er was even more interested in these little things. Despite her constant clamor to set them off, she was being forcibly held back by Su Pan’er, who would not let her misbehave.
"Don’t just play around, eat your al first. Those fireworks and firecrackers aren’t running away. Eat slowly!"
"I know, I know! Fourth Sister, you are really nagging! You’ve said this so many tis already!"
Su Ke had an excited look all over her face, and she did not slow down her al at all just because of Su Pan’er’s words. Seeing this, the page boy who was serving food next to her also hurriedly sped up his serving pace, leading the adults around to shake their heads.
"Alright, Fourth Sister won’t say anymore."
Su Pan’er couldn’t help but chuckle, followed by a shake of her head.
Unexpectedly, she was being criticized for nagging at him. If it were soone else, she wouldn’t bother to care!
"However, you must promise Fourth Sister, when you set off the firework and firecrackers later, you must take caution. Understand?"
"I know!"
As soon as Ke’er finished the white rice in the bowl, she threw the bowl and chopsticks away, quickly stood up and wiped her mouth: "Fourth Sister, Ke’er has finished eating! Can I go and set off the fireworks now?"
"Hold on, it’s not completely dark yet, you won’t be able to see the fireworks’ beauty if you set it off now! Wait until we’ve all finished eating, then we’ll go to the corridor outside Xiaoyao Pavilion to set it off, where the view is wide and it’s safe and beautiful to do so."
Hearing these words, Ke’er couldn’t help nodding her head: "Alright, alright! Fourth Sister, you can co and play with us later, okay?"
"Fourth Sister’s body is heavy now, I can’t accompany you. However, you can ask your Fourth Brother-in-law to accompany you to play."
As Su Pan’er spoke, she gestured towards Qin Yi.
Qin Yi, who was slowly savoring his wine with others, couldn’t help but laugh at her words!
"Fine, when it gets dark, we’ll go set off fireworks with Ke’er."
Qin Yi finalized the decision: "After all, we’re still going to stay up late on New Year’s Eve tonight, we’ve got plenty of ti. We’ll continue our drinking after we’ve set off the fireworks and firecrackers."
This plan naturally gained the approval of Su Huarong and Qin Hua.
"Not to ntion Ke’er can’t wait, even seeing these fascinating toys, we are itching to give them a try imdiately."
"Since everyone likes it, let’s all go together! The ti is about right anyway."
After Su Pan’er casually ntioned this, it imdiately received unanimous agreent.
Everyone put down their bowl and chopsticks and rushed towards the corridor outside the Xiaoyao Pavilion.
Only Su Pan’er stayed in place and did not follow. Currently, her belly was growing bigger and she couldn’t see the ground when she walked, which was quite inconvenient.
Su Xian’er walked a distance and then ca back, leaving Su Pan’er to raise an eyebrow: "Why didn’t you go and have fun?"
"It’s just fireworks, they look better from a distance."
Su Xian’er casually comnted, and sat down not too far from Su Pan’er.
Su Pan’er glanced at her and noticed that despite her laughter, there was a touch of light sorrow in her eyebrows and eyes. A smile flashed in Su Pan’er’s eyes.
"You have sothing to say to , right? Go ahead! What’s up?"
"You really can’t keep anything from you."
Su Xian’er gave a wry smile: "I don’t know what happened when we were young, why everyone thought you were a fool. It seems to now that we are the real fools!"
How could a true fool have today’s wealth? This proves that they all misjudged you back then.
"So you want to talk to about this?"
One of Su Pan’er eyebrows raised.
"No."
Su Xian’er, wearing male clothes and hair tied up in a bun, shook her head and sighed: "I was just wondering, why do people have to grow up, why do they have to understand the world? It was so good before, all day long just thinking about how to fill up our stomachs, and there was no energy left to ponder on anything else. Now, once food and clothing are no longer a worry, there are even more things to think about. The whole person feel empty, like a drifting duckweed..."
As she spoke, she lowered her head.
Su Pan’er listened quietly, and also heard the sound of fireworks and firecrackers cutting through the night sky from the direction of Xiaoyao Pavilion. The splendid fireworks soared high into the sky and exploded in mid-air, a sight for sore eyes.
Soon, it seed that everyone in Shengjing had begun to join in. Fireworks and firecrackers could be heard everywhere, with fireworks flashing everywhere in the sky.
Even Su Pan’er was amazed by the sight.
The Su Xian’er by her side watched the bustling scene outside quietly, her whole person becoming increasingly silent.
Not until the first wave of fireworks had finished going off did Su Pan’er turned her head to look at Su Xian’er.
"You have soone you love, don’t you?"
She asked with certainty rather than hesitation.
Su Xian’er was stunned, and then her cheeks suddenly flushed red.
Fortunately, it was already dark outside, and Sister Pan’er across from her should not be able to see her hot face.
At this thought, she finally breathed a sigh of relief and nodded. Then realizing that Su Pan’er could not see her nod in the darkness, she quickly responded.
"Yes."
Though the night was dark, Su Pan’er’s eyesight was exceptionally good due to her cultivation, and naturally, she could see clearly.
However, she didn’t point it out, but just smiled slightly.
"Right, didn’t you say last ti that your mother had pleaded for you and that the marriage arrangent back ho had already been cancelled? In this case, who can’t you marry if you want to?"
"It was cancelled."
Su Xian’er murmured and repeated the line, then got up and walked to her: "Don’t you want to ask who I like?"
"For those who can make you feel that you are not worthy of them, there shouldn’t be many, right?"
Outside, a new round of fireworks and firecrackers began to go off again. Su Pan’er looked up and couldn’t help but wear a smile on her face.
"Exactly! Indeed, there aren’t many."
Su Xian’er’s lips curled up in self-deprecation.
She had originally thought that she had hidden it well enough, but she didn’t expect that she could not hide anything in front of Su Pan’er. It seed that everything was laid bare right in front of her.
This feeling was really terrible!
"It’s not that the other party’s status is just a bit higher, or the family is a bit more prestigious, right? But you’re not inferior at all! As the Fifth Sister of , Su Pan’er, it should be easy to find a good marriage, right?"
Su Pan’er said with a aningful smile.
Su Xian’er was first taken aback, then ecstasy washed over her!
If she could really hold the status of ’Fifth sister of Su Pan’er’, let alone ordinary people, even those noble young masters would be potential suitors!
At this thought, the tears in her eyes flashed, and before she knew it, she was crying out loud.
"Sister Pan’er..."
"Su Xian’er, you don’t need to get so emotional. The reason why I’m doing this also has an objective. I, Su Pan’er, am not a good person, but I’m not utterly evil either! Since I’ve helped you, there will be a suitable opportunity in the future for you to do a favor. Can you do it?"
Su Pan’er’s words were exceptionally casual.
She never wanted to be a good person, let alone a gullible one! Equivalent exchange was her favorite!
