Volume 1: Yun Family Has a Daughter Chapter 39: Wish to Meet You Again
Time flies quickly, June 16th, Moon Goddess Festival, has arrived!
On the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, the most fun moment on the street was after worshiping the moon. Therefore, Meng Meng, who was still in confinement, could only make an appointment with her younger siblings to meet at the corner door of the back door after worshiping the moon.
After dinner, under the leadership of the old lady, all the women in the house went out and knelt down to worship the newly risen moon. Momo also imitated them, feeling very fresh.
After the ceremony of worshiping the moon was completed, everyone went back to their own places! Mo Mo pretended to return to her room, but halfway through, she took advantage of no one's attention and moved to a secluded place. Originally, she wanted to hook up with Wu You too, but she said she had something on, so she could only go alone.
They successfully arrived at their destination, where they met Yun Qingyun and Yun Zhu. Mo Mo took out some silver coins and gave them to the gatekeeper as a reward, then left with her siblings and their personal servants.
Arriving on the brightly lit street, I indeed saw men and women, old and young, constantly shuttling back and forth. Even shops that wouldn't normally open at night were wide open, welcoming customers coming and going; on both sides of the street, there were also many vendors setting up stalls, hawking all sorts of small items, including food and drink, useful things, and toys.
Today is the night of the full moon, and there are many vendors selling lanterns and river lights on the street. Many people carry lanterns in their hands and hold river lights, heading towards the nearby riverbank.
Yun Qing and several others were also very interested in releasing river lanterns, each bought a few, and invited everyone to go to the riverside together. Meng Meng was afraid of crowds, unexpectedly, she also followed along!
"Sister, you put one too!"
After Yun Qing put down a lantern, she saw Mo Mo standing beside her and hastily handed over the lotus flower lantern in her hand to her.
Foam foam saw various river lanterns floating on the surface of the river, very beautiful, and came with excitement, as a result, lotus flower lanterns were slowly placed in the river.
Seeing several younger siblings urging her to make a wish, she smiled slightly, clasped her hands together, closed her eyes, and silently prayed in her heart: Even if we had an irreversible bond in our past lives, I still pray to the heavens that we can meet again!
Opening her eyes, she gazed at the steadily and slowly drifting river lanterns, and couldn't help but feel a little dazed.
"Sister, sister!"
The soft shout of Yunzhu brought Momo back to her senses, and she smiled apologetically at him, only to find that Yunqing and Yuna were nowhere to be seen. It wasn't until she asked Yunzhu that she found out they had been lured away by a street performer who had just passed by.
Moistening, pulling Cloud Bamboo's hand, they walked in the direction they had left, and soon saw an open area, a circus troupe performing, surrounded by many people, it took half a day to find Cloud Clear and the others.
Just then, Yun Yao shouted: "Sister, come quickly, do you have any copper coins?"
It turned out that those jugglers were holding plates and asking the onlookers for tips, but just now they had bought something and used up their loose change.
When he came out, he didn't bring any silver coins either. It's hard to come out and play once in a while, so it's natural to have some fun. So he opened his mouth and said: "I don't have any either, you guys wait for a moment, I'll go exchange some copper coins!"
She instructed them to take good care of her brother, and ordered the servants to look after him well, before squeezing out of the crowd and heading back in the direction she had come from.
In a shop selling pastries, I bought some pastries and exchanged some loose silver coins. As I was about to leave the pastry shop to look for them, I raised my head and saw that familiar figure across from me, and suddenly felt as if I had been frozen in place. My eyes stared fixedly ahead, unmoving, and even when the pastries fell from my hand onto the ground, I didn't notice at all.
"It's impossible, it's impossible, how did he come!"
Muttering to himself in a daze, he suddenly came back to his senses and took off running into the crowd.
He was trampled by several feet, and he didn't even feel the pain. There was a voice that kept echoing in his mind: Find him, I must find him!
Finally, at the end of the street, I saw that familiar figure walking slowly.
Suddenly, she felt a surge of heat in her eyes and, regardless of the astonished glances from those around her, excitedly shouted: "Xuān! Xuān!"
She pushed through the crowd and rushed forward quickly, approaching that figure whose back had made her cry countless times on dark nights until dawn!
That person also sensed the commotion behind him and turned around in confusion, only to be rushed into his arms by an object.
Looking at this familiar face, Momo excitedly hugged him tightly!
It's him, no mistake! That warm feeling won't be wrong. Did heaven really hear her prayers and arrange this encounter?
"Miss, are you mistaken? I don't know you!"
Above her head, a gentle and soothing voice like a spring breeze rose with confusion, ruthlessly shattering her illusions.
Mo Mo heard this and suddenly lifted her head, looking at him in disbelief.
Although his attire is no longer what it used to be, that profound impression in the heart remains. The exquisite facial features that are forever unchanged are exactly the same!
"No, I won't be mistaken! Wen, I am Mo Mo, I am Mo Mo! How can you forget me?" Mo Mo grasped the man's clothes tightly, looking at him anxiously, her face full of urgency.
She can't accept the reality that he doesn't recognize himself and is convinced she didn't misidentify him!
"Sorry miss, I really don't know you! It's not clear how we got involved with each other, so please let go of me!"
The man said, wanting to pull out the clothes that she tightly grasped in her hand, but was held tightly by her.
She slightly furrowed her brow, exerting a bit of force to free the clothes from her hand, gave her a polite yet distant smile, turned around and quickly walked away!
Dazed for half the day, unable to come back to my senses. It wasn't until I realized both hands were empty that I reached out wanting to grasp something, but only grasped air. Looking around everywhere, that figure was nowhere to be found again.
"How could I have mistaken you! It's obviously you!"
Staring blankly at her own hands, that familiar feeling just now, how could it be wrong? They look exactly the same!
"It's you who didn't admit your mistake, it was clearly yours!"
Dazed and disheartened, she slowly squatted down, unable to hold back her emotions any longer. She burst into muffled sobs, covering her face with her hands on her knees, her shoulders shaking violently as passersby occasionally heard a few stifled cries of anguish.
She couldn't care less about what others thought at this moment, all she knew was that her chest hurt and felt suffocated, as if she would die in an instant.
Suddenly, someone walked over, knelt down in front of Murmur, stretched out his slender hand, lifted up her face and asked in a low voice: "Why are you crying?"
