Chapter 28 The fragrance strikes people
In December, the teaching of the academy has stopped, and everyone is preparing for the annual examination on the 15th. The scene of chanting the wind and reciting the moon is gone, the scene of gathering in groups of three or five to meet the text can be seen everywhere, the four schools are full of students studying hard, and the business of the farm and the hotel is much colder.
The tense atmosphere also infected the villa, and the daily hand talk turned into a conversation, and after a few detailed conversations, Jiang Anyi felt his shortcomings. Although since entering the academy, he has continued to make up for his knowledge, but compared to Lin Yizhen, who has been guided by the Master since he was a child, read a lot of books, and has seen more than a step above himself, it is no wonder that Master Yu instructed him not to rush to participate in the township examination.
A heavy snowfall came, decorating the world with a plain one. Charcoal looked very excited, and from time to time he rushed forward, Lin Yizhen smiled: "Anyi, Charcoal is homesick." It is said that the snow in the northern desert is as big as a seat, and you must go to see it if you have the opportunity. ”
Reading thousands of books and traveling thousands of miles, roaming books and swords drifting zero, is the dream of every scholar, Jiang Anyi looked at the snow in the sky, and couldn't wait to let out a long howl to send the pride of the youth.
"The years are about to be twilight, and the time is dark. The cold wind accumulates, and the clouds are ......"
Lin Yizhen's high-pitched and heroic recitation sounded in his ears, it was "Snow Fu" written by Xie Deling, everyone in the previous dynasty, Jiang Anyi's chest was boiling, and he couldn't help but harmonize, "...... The court is lined with Yao steps, Lin Ting Qiongshu, Hao Crane wins fresh, white pheasant loses his prime, his sleeves are ashamed, and his jade face covers his ......"
The snow is silent, the north wind does not blow the sound of gold and stone, Cangshan listens to the voice of the young man.
From a distance, I saw several ox carts parked in the courtyard of the villa, and there were many people and visitors. Lin Yizhen urged the horse forward, and Jiang Anyi slowed down the horse's pace and followed behind.
A fiery red floated towards Lin Yizhen, and he heard it first, "Second brother, I'm here." ”
Lin Yizhen jumped off the horse, stepped forward in surprise, and said with a smile: "Fifth sister, why are you here?" ”
Jiang Anyi saw that the girl was about the same age as An Yong, wrapped in a red robe, revealing a small pink face with picturesque eyebrows.
"Daddy wrote to you to take me to Beijing for a reunion after the exam, and I will wait for you in the villa first." The voice is crisp and sweet, like a yellow bird singing.
Lin Yizhen turned around and greeted Jiang Anyi, and introduced: "Anyi, this is the housemate, the fifth sister, this is my friend Jiang Gongzi." ”
The girl fluttered and said: "Jiang Gongzi is polite." ”
Jiang Anyi had never dealt with the young lady of the family, and he was at a loss for a while, not knowing whether to give up or do it. The girl's clear gaze swept over Jiang Anyi's face, her eyebrows raised slightly, a smile appeared at the corner of her mouth, and she said softly: "I was originally a stupid goose boy." ”
"The fifth sister must not be rude." Lin Yizhen blamed in his mouth, but his eyes were full of spoiling, and he said to Jiang Anyi with a smile: "Anyi doesn't have to be restrained, my sister has been spoiled by her family since she was a child, and she doesn't know how important she is, so don't blame Anyi." ”
"Don't dare, it's me who was rude first." Jiang Anyi regained his composure and replied politely. The girl was behind Lin Yizhen, pouting at Jiang Anyi, her little nose wrinkled, and she made a grimace.
Lin Yizhen nodded apologetically, holding the hand of the fifth sister, the brother and sister laughed constantly, and gradually moved away. Jiang Anyi returned to Zhuyunju, his head was red, he always remembered that the girl was wearing a red leather coat, and he thought of the flower cloth shirt on Yan'er's body, and the wealth and luxury in front of him became heartbroken.
In the afternoon, Jiang Anyi proposed to move back to the academy, Lin Yizhen thought about it and didn't keep it, and told Jiang Anyi that as long as he was willing to welcome him to live at any time, he would greet the servants, and Zhuyunju would keep it for him.
Returning to the residence of the academy, Jiang Anyi felt a sense of relaxation, and said from his heart: Although Liang Yuan is good, it is not a long-term home. I am not rich and noble after all, this sudden wealth is like a dream, it is time to wake up from the dream, don't be consumed by wealth.
Li Shicheng came back, saw Jiang Anyi and said with a smile: "Anyi is back, tell me about the situation of the Lin Villa, I have heard people say that the villa is beautiful, but unfortunately I didn't have the opportunity to visit." ”
The next day, Jiang Anyi went to the library to return the books, and Lin Yizhen's voice came from behind him, "Anyi, I met you so coincidentally." ”
Jiang Anyi turned around and saw Lin Yizhen wearing a mink hat and a cyan fox fur jacket standing under the pine tree next to the road, nodding at himself with a smile. Next to Lin Yizhen is a beautiful young man, with big red arrow sleeves, covered with white fox fur, and a hat on his head, but he is Lin Yizhen's fifth sister, dressed as a man. The two were followed by a servant with a brown cloth wrap in his hand.
Jiang Anyi stepped forward to salute, and Lin Yizhen smiled: "Take the house today...... My brother came to the academy to play, and when I heard that the red plum in Meiling was beautiful, An Yi and we went to the snow to look for plums. ”
It snowed all night, and a thick layer of snow had accumulated on the road. Lin Yizhen's brother and sister stepped on clogs, and Jiang Anyi's feet were cotton shoes, which were soaked after not much effort, and the cold seeped into the skin.
I smelled a faint fragrance from afar, and looked up at the red color on Meiling, and countless red plum and snow bloomed.
The fifth sister of the Lin family shouted with joy, and ran up the mountain with her legs. Lin Yizhen chased after him, shouting while chasing: "Don't run, beware of falling." ”
The road up the mountain was trampled slippery by the plum blossom admirers, Jiang Anyi walked a few steps, almost didn't fall, and hurriedly grabbed the plum branch on the side of the road, stopped, his feet were wooden and numb. The brothers and sisters of the Lin family have already stood under a plum tree on the top of the mountain, and the fifth sister of Lin is circling around the plum tree.
Lin Wumei turned around a few times and found that the "stupid goose" had not come up yet, standing at the foot of the mountain and holding the plum tree to pant for breath, it was really weak. Lin Wumei shouted at Jiang Anyi: "Jiang Gongzi, come up quickly, if you stay any longer, you will have a seizure." He laughed out loud as he spoke.
Jiang Anyi had no choice but to grit his teeth, climb up step by step, and finally came to the top of the mountain, his left foot was cut by the solid ice beside the road, and the blood dripped on the ice, bright red and dazzling, as bright as a red plum.
"Ahh Seeing that Jiang Anyi's foot was injured, Lin Wumei exclaimed in surprise, and her eyes were filled with water.
Lin Yizhen was awakened by the girl's scream, and he was also shocked when he saw the blood on the ice. Seeing that Jiang Anyi's cotton shoes were already soaked, he blamed himself repeatedly: "I'm sorry, Anyi, I didn't notice that you were wearing cloth shoes for a while." Han was born from the feet, Lin Hua, you carry Jiang Gongzi on your back, let's go back to the villa. ”
The ox cart rushed towards the villa, Jiang Anyi took off his shoes and socks, revealing an inch-long wound on his ankle, and the bleeding had not stopped. Lin Yizhen took out a silk scarf to tie Jiang Anyi's wound tightly, Lin Wumei was teary-eyed on the side, and said in a choked voice: "It's all my fault, if I hadn't asked Jiang Gongzi to go up the mountain, Jiang Gongzi wouldn't have been injured." ”
Jiang Anyi smiled and comforted: "It's okay, this little wound is nothing, I often cut it when I do farm work at home, and it is heavier than this." ”
Lin Yizhen saw that his sister was crying sadly, and also comforted him gently: "The wound is not deep, it should be fine to go back and rub some Jinchuang medicine, but Anyi, your feet are cold, go back and take a good bath, drink some ginger water to cover your sweat and dispel the cold." ”
Lin Wumei gradually calmed down, her eyes stared at the silk scarf on Jiang Anyi's feet, her long eyelashes fanned, and occasionally raised her head to look at Jiang Anyi's face with concern. Jiang Anyi saw that her eyebrows were dark and her eyes were bright, and her pink face was a little baby fat, and she was sitting there quietly at the moment, like a cute porcelain doll. is really like Yan'er, Jiang Anyi endured it hard, so he didn't reach out and pinch her face.
Back at the villa, changed into a pair of soft brocade boots, drank hot ginger water, Jiang Anyi sweated slightly, soaked comfortably, and changed into Lin Yizhen's clothes. People rely on clothes, and the servants who serve look straight, such a handsome man with a good demeanor.
At lunchtime, Lin Yizhen came to invite him and set up a banquet to shock Jiang Anyi. Jiang Anyi smiled bitterly and said, "Brother Lin, if you are like this, I will never dare to come to your villa again." ”
Lin Yizhen laughed and said, "It's the sister who can't help it, and I'm also touching the light of Anyi." You must go, otherwise the sister will feel guilty in her heart and it will not be beautiful. ”
The Xiangyu Pavilion is warm like spring, the two pots of silver silk bamboo charcoal in the corner of the house do not have the slightest fireworks, a branch of two feet long red plum is inserted in the plum vase of the dragon, and the horizontal branches stretch out like a cockroach. The wine and dishes on the round table in front of the six landscape screens have been laid down, and the aroma of wine, vegetables, plums and unknown fragrances are mixed together, causing Jiang Anyi's stomach to scream angrily, Lin Yizhen smiled: "It seems that the sister still knows Anyi's mind best, please please." ”
Jiang Anyi was really hungry, and he was not polite, he raised his glass to drink, raised his spoon to eat vegetables, Lin Yizhen occasionally picked up vegetables, watching Jiang Anyi eat happily, with a strange smile on his face.
Behind the screen, the piano sounds. Jiang Anyi doesn't know the piano, he can only play the flute, the music is the same, from the sound of the piano he heard the clear spring flowing soothingly, melodious, flowers blooming in the spring breeze, bees and butterflies fluttering, birds contending, with infinite delicate and bright.
The sound of the piano turns suddenly, the force is like a thousand jun, like a storm suddenly rising, the heavy rain is pouring, the rain blows the wind and the leaves fall red, the sound of the piano is like crying and complaining, and the sorrow comes from the heart. The sound of the piano turns again, the rain passes and the clouds disperse, the bright moon shines on the earth, with infinite tenderness and pleasure, and the aftersound is like the sparkling waves on the river, which makes people's minds move and feel happy.
The sound of the piano dissipated, and Jiang Anyi was still intoxicated. Lin Yizhen coughed, Jiang Anyi came back to his senses, and was about to speak, when he saw Lin Yizhen quickly write the word "Chunguang" on the table with his hand dipped in wine, and then wiped it off with his hand.
The footsteps were broken, and a beauty came out behind the screen, with a hundred flowers in a bun of jewels, and a luxurious and shiny outfit that made Jiang Anyi's eyes dazzled, and when he spoke, he found that it was the fifth sister of the Lin family.
Lin Wumei poured the wine and handed it over, and said softly: "Master Jiang, I am sorry for your injury, please drink this cup to the fullest." ”
Jiang Anyi drank it all, Lin Wumei was already full, her eyes flashed with a sly light, and she asked, "I don't know if Jiang Gongzi can still listen to the piano just now?" ”
"Okay, that's a great play."
"Oh, Jiang Gongzi is still a bosom friend, do you know what song you played just now?"
Jiang Anyi's mind flashed the two words that Lin Yizhen wrote on the table, and blurted out: "Spring Song." ”
"Jiang Gongzi is really smart, my little sister has only played this spring song in front of her family, I don't know how Jiang Gongzi knows the name of this song."
Jiang Anyi was stunned, only to see Lin Yizhen dumbfounded, looking embarrassed, he just remembered to remind Jiang Anyi but forgot about it.
Lin Wumei's eyes turned from the second brother, Yao snorted lightly, and said: "Jiang Gongzi and the second brother colluded to tease the little sister, the little sister doesn't follow, today Jiang Gongzi will either play a song, or drink this jar of wine." ”
A jar of wine is five catties, the Lin family's wine will not be as weak as the village wine, Jiang Anyi drank three glasses and felt that his face was flushed, looking at the jar of wine, there was really nothing he could do.
Lin Yizhen coughed and said, "Fifth sister, don't be rude." ”
"Oh, does the second brother intend to drink it for Gongzi Jiang? You and Jiang Gongzi really have a deep affection, and my little sister admires it. ”
"This ......", the two looked at each other and shook their heads and smiled bitterly.
Lin Wumei said with a smile: "Jiang Gongzi, I heard the second brother say that you are talented in poetry, and if you can't drink wine, then make a poem, but this poem has to be written by me, if you don't do it well, this wine still can't be saved." ”
Jiang Anyi took this hand, thought for a moment, Jiang Anyi chanted: "The beauty has a spring song in her hands, and the ring sways exquisitely jade." The sound of the piano is like a turn in the spring sky, and the pavilion is full of white moon and pear blossoms. ”
As soon as the words fell, Lin Yizhen stood up with a cheer, Lin Wumei was silent for a moment, smiled, and disappeared behind the screen.
