After dipping the vegetables in the seasoning, Ning Yue put them in her mouth and ate them. She narrowed her eyes in satisfaction. They were really delicious.
With doubts, Baili imitated Ning Yue and cooked the vegetables in the pot. He dipped them in the sauce and ate.
His eyes lit up and he hurriedly asked Ning Yue, “Princess, how did you think of such a wonderful way to eat?”
“What’s wrong with that? There are many delicious things. Baili, don’t worry. Uncle asked you to follow me. I won’t treat you badly. I’ll let you have wine and meat to eat!”
When Baili heard this, a smile appeared on his face. “That’s indeed the case. I thank the Princess first.”
After returning to the Ning family after eating, Ning Yue tidied up for a while and went to bed early. The two children had been at Jiang Ying’s place these past few days, so she was happy to be free.
At this moment, Madam Liu knocked on Ning Yue’s door.
Ning Yue opened the door and saw that it was Madam Liu. She quickly invited her into the house. “Mother!”

“Huh? A lantern festival?” She had been here for a long time, but she had never heard of a lantern festival. What festival was this?
“Yes, it’s a festival in the winter. You can go and take a look with Jiang Ying. You’re all very busy these days. Join the festival to relax,” Madam Liu said.
Ning Yue nodded. “Alright, I’ll talk to Jiang Ying tomorrow.”
In any case, the Three Kingdoms Festival had yet to arrive. Jiang Ying should have time to go to the Lantern Festival, right?
The next day, when Ning Yue went to talk to Jiang Ying about the Lantern Festival, Jiang Ying agreed without thinking.
As the Lantern Festival began at night, the two of them agreed to go out on the evening of the third day.
On the third day, Jiang Ying arrived at the Ning family’s house in the evening to wait for Ning Yue.
Initially, Ning Yue wanted to bring the two children out, but she was stopped by Madam Liu.
“The two children have been at the Jiang Ying family’s house these past few days. We miss them a lot. Go out if you want. Don’t take care of the two children,” Madam Liu deliberately said to Ning Yue with a straight face.
At this moment, Ning Yue saw something. Madam Liu and the others probably thought that she had quarreled with Jiang Ying and wanted them to improve their relationship.
She and Jiang Ying were not quarreling, but they were too busy to meet. Coupled with the fact that Gu Yu had left previously, Ning Yue was a little unhappy.
However, Ning Yue was still very touched by Madam Liu and the others’ intentions.
Jiang Ying could tell too. He took the initiative to hold Ning Yue’s hand and said to the Ning family, “I’ll definitely take good care of Yueyue.”
In this era, people usually did not have much entertainment, so when it came to such a lantern festival, the event was especially lively. Young men and women would also come out to play.
Jiang Ying brought Ning Yue into the carriage. When they were about to reach their destination, Jiang Ying saw that Ning Yue was busy looking at the scenery outside the carriage and teased, “Yueyue is so beautiful tonight!”
“Yes, yes, yes. I’m beautiful. Let’s go see more beauties!” After the carriage stopped, Ning Yue immediately jumped out and urged Jiang Ying to hurry up.
This Lantern Festival was too lively. After she transmigrated, she had never seen such a lively festival.
There were all kinds of lanterns sold by the roadside, illuminating the night as if it was daytime.
Ning Yue looked at the young men and women chatting around her and felt an itch in her heart. She wanted to go forward and participate in the conversation.

“I don’t love women,” Ning Yue replied deliberately.
“Then you love men?” Jiang Ying said as he shopped.
“Oh? Are you a woman?” Ning Yue raised her eyebrows at him.
She knew how to tease people!
Jiang Ying was about to say something when Ning Yue suddenly walked happily to a small stall and said to Jiang Ying, “I like this small cake. Jiang Ying, buy it for me.”
“Okay.” Jiang Ying immediately took out money and placed it in the vendor’s hand.
Ning Yue picked up two cakes. One was for herself, and the other was for Jiang Ying. “Try it. Sweet food can make people happy!”
As she ate, Ning Yue actually saw someone! She thought she had seen something wrong. In this place, she actually saw Consort Xian and a man! That man seemed a little familiar, but Ning Yue had already forgotten where she had seen him before.
Jiang Ying walked over and whispered in Ning Yue’s ear, “This person is Meng Lang. Back then, they said that they would spare him after what happened to the Meng family.”
So it was Meng Lang! Ning Yue was shocked.
“Consort Xian is still alive? Wasn’t she sent to prison?” Ning Yue asked.
