On Chinese New Year's Eve, the whole family had a Chinese New Year's Eve dinner together, and after observing the New Year's Eve for most of the hour, the old lady quietly proposed to visit the night scene in the garden.

Because he wanted to coax the old man to rejoice, naturally no one would not agree, Xu Hao ordered his mother-in-law to carry a four-by-one green paint warm sedan chair, and a group of people came to the garden in a mighty way.

Along the way, the colorful lights are brilliant, bright as day, the whole garden is decorated like a night sky, go around the cloister, lean on the water window of the Linxia Pavilion, very quiet, several painting boats are moored on the shore.

The old lady pointed to the highest place and said: "I have always heard that the plum blossoms in the yard of the willow girl are blooming well, let's go over and see together." ”

The group followed slowly, across the bank of the stream, and crossed a trail behind the mountain. The stone steps are paved with five-colored stones, and at night, the pine and cypress on both sides are rustled by the wind, and when you go up the hillside, you can see a winding stream twisting and turning.

A long red plate bridge connects the two sides, and after crossing the bridge, you can see a plum grove without going far. Because of the lanterns, you can enjoy the scenery of different days, and you don't feel tired while talking and laughing along the way.

Approaching the plum blossom forest, I first smelled a faint fragrance, the plum blossoms are light red, there are also light white, and many petals have fallen on the ground.

Xu Hao didn't expect Cuiliu to run this place so well, and he didn't know where to buy all kinds of plum trees, and they became forests after a year.

Walking through the plum forest, like a fairyland, the young girls scattered with cheers, while the others continued to walk forward, facing a green wall, and behind them were a few very ordinary tile houses, and the window railings were painted with green bamboo inscriptions.

Zhu Qiaoqiao and Mu Ningxue helped the old lady get off the sedan chair and walked into the moon gate, where an old plum branch was half-opened, and the flowers were delicate and cute.

The maids opened the soft curtains, everyone entered the house, and Cuiliu personally came out with tea, first to the old lady, and then to the ladies. Zhu Qiaoqiao smiled: "You don't need to greet us, there are so many people, I'm afraid you don't have these cups." ”

Zhu Xianyuan came here for the first time, and curiously looked at the plum shadow outside the window, and the long case by the window offered a foundation vial, and two red and green plum blossoms were inserted; The inkstone pen holder is very elegantly arranged, and there are many books lined up on one shelf.

Everyone heard that Xu Cuiliu recently fell in love with ancient Taoist books, and he couldn't wait to come down the mountain, and he was busy practicing alchemy every day.

Zhu Xianyuan asked, "Can you really see through the red dust?" ”

Zhu Qiaoqiao said: "How many people can see through ancient and modern times? Those Taoist monks are chanting immortals, who doesn't only think about yellow and white things? Now the imperial court is looking for Wudang Zhang sloppy everywhere. If Cuiliu can meet his old man, he may still be a little sure. ”

Xiao Yushi said: "The fairy road is too ethereal, I think it's better to live a down-to-earth life." ”

Xu Cuiliu said with a smile: "My brother said that everyone has their own way of living, and I am carefree now, which is good." ”

"That's what you said." Wang Xuanqing's expression was a little lonely, what if he got married? The husband died early, and he has not been as lonely as Cuiliu for the rest of his life?

Lao Taijun and other elders couldn't help but sigh, they always thought that girls should marry when they grow up, and a full house of children and grandchildren is the best destination for women.

Mu Ningxue didn't want Cuiliu to be embarrassed. Diverted the topic and praised: "I also like plum blossoms since I was a child, and I can only have fun playing the piano with plum blossoms here." ”

Xu Cuiliu smiled: "It's a pity that my piano skills are average, and you know how to play the piano but don't come to play." Failed my plum blossoms in vain. ”

Mu Ningxue said: "Where is there such Yaxing? All day long, the firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea all day long have not been stained with the god of flowers. ”

At this time, Xu Hao interjected: "Stop, you will become unbearable when you touch a piece." Unreasonable. ”

Zhu Xianyuan clapped her hands and smiled: "It turns out that the third brother is the number one layman in the family, no wonder Qingshuang's poetry club doesn't invite you to come." ”

Xu Hao smiled and said, "You are just full of leisure and leisure, it's just that." I don't want to spoil the scenery either. ”

Look up and admire the poems written by Cuiliu herself. The sentences are good, the words are thin, but unfortunately there is no fireworks, and it seems that I have already gotten a glimpse of the Taoist way. It would be nice if you could really cultivate immortals, and you would be immortal and travel the world, and you would no longer have to pay attention to the mediocrity in this red dust.

The old lady crooked on the soft couch and gossiped with Princess An, pointed to the white wall and said: "Hao'er, there is space on the west wall, and there is a Xiangxue chart drawn by Mei Daoren in my house. ”

"Yes!" Xu Hao agreed, Xu Cuiliu immediately smiled, it seems that grandmother has already figured it out.

The old lady said again: "Where have all the people gone? ”

Mu Ningxue said: "They are all looking at the flowers outside." ”

The old lady said: "She is a clean place here, so don't bother too much, we should also go, and we have to go shopping elsewhere." ”

There is still only one man in the whole garden, Xu Hao, and it seems that it has formed a convention, and the men of the whole family are eating and drinking in the outer house, and they are also happy to have no female dependents present, and they can drink and chat freely.

In the house next door, Du Xu Jiang did not go out under the pretext of recuperating from his injury, and Aunt Wang was also at home because of this, but Fu returned to his parents' house to accompany his old father for the New Year.

The table was full of wine and food, the mother and son ate absentmindedly, Jin Gui said: "In the past few days, I have been going to the back, grandma and a few girls are there talking and laughing, it turns out that two or three times are grandma and they have made a trap." Jin Zhu was almost killed that day, because she was complaining that it was her grandmother's idea, but she was angry with the girl. The young master really jumped into the fire pit with his eyes open and suffered two big losses. ”

Xu Jiang woke up like a dream and shouted: "No wonder I laughed with the girl, obviously she wasn't there, but before I could get it, the mother worm came in time, it turned out that it was all discussed in advance, I was so stupid." ”

After hearing this, Aunt Wang sighed: "At such a young age, there is no affection between husband and wife. I'm afraid that if I kick my legs, Jiang Er doesn't know how to suffer from her sin. ”

Sighing, Aunt Wang said to Jin Gui: "You are the only one in the family who still loves him, pay more attention to inquire about any conspiracy and tricks, and you teach him to be on guard." Good people have good rewards, I will keep it in my heart. ”

Next door next door, Li Fang hugged the concubines and had fun in the room, no one was wearing clothes, and he would do a big job if he caught it blindfolded.

In the attic, the Yu clan and Xiao Xiao fooled around on the bed, and the couple in the thirties of the Chinese New Year's Eve played their own games, but they were also happy.

During the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner tonight, Hu Dan sang a few tunes. The Chi clan took the opportunity to say that they would give him Hongmei as his wife.

Li Fang agreed without thinking too much, for him, becoming a relative is also his plaything, and he will come and go as soon as he is called. Because of this, I feel that Hongmei is three points more charming than usual, and after his wife and the little servants leave, he will first correct Hongmei on the spot.

It just so happened that tonight, Hongmei and the Chi family were both pregnant, one was pregnant with the blood of the master, and the other was pregnant with the seed of the little girl.

Here the old lady walked to the original residence of Xu Hao and his wife, and Jiang Xuezhai was renamed as Yaolin Immortal Pavilion, which was written by Mu Qingshuang.

Because there are hot springs flowing underground, it is well cared for. Flower beds are scattered all around the yard, and some flowers bloom in winter. Entering the courtyard gate, there are strange stones everywhere, some like clouds, some like sesame grass, some like birds and beasts, and there are also tea shelfs and so on.

As soon as he entered the house, there were guqins and bookshelves everywhere, and the old lady said: "When you enter this room, you will know that the master of the Tao must be knowledgeable. In the past, the elders paid attention to women's lack of talent, which is virtue. But none of you don't read poetry and books, all of them are connived at by Hao'er. ”

Xu Hao immediately shouted: "This can't rely on me, my cultural level has always been the first, and I don't like to learn the most." ”

Everyone laughs. Xiao Shi noticed that the old lady was a little tired, so he arranged to take a boat to Linxia Pavilion. In the painting boat, the women stand against the railing, and the soft moonlight illuminates the water. It seems to be paved with thousands of acres of mercury; The moonlight of the lake, reflecting up and down, seems to have two moons competing for glory.

Suddenly, Xu Hao shouted. Everyone was startled, and they all turned their heads to look over, and saw Mu Ningxue said cautiously: "Looking at the moon is to be quiet, so that you can get the fun of the moon, and if you make such a fuss, I'm afraid that Chang'e will be scared away." ”

Musk Yue and Zhiqing walked hand in hand on the shore, and Zhiqing said: "I have already inquired about the matter you entrusted me, your father was used as a matchmaker by his colleagues in the Ministry of Rites and married the favorite concubine of the deceased officials of the Ministry of Rites. The old man died less than three years after he bought her, so the wife scolded her for being a vixen and sent her to live at Ya Pozi's house. ”

Musk Yue sighed with a bitter face, no one will be happy if they have a stepmother. Zhiqing said again: "Actually, everyone is in their thirties, not a young girl. Your father is in his forties this year, and he is a good match at this age, so the wife will give it to your father without even wanting to be worth money, and she will have the right to accumulate virtue. But I said a cruel thing that I was afraid that she would lose your family's face, and the two would have nothing to do with it from now on. ”

Musk Moon is worried about her sister Crystal, who knows what her stepmother is like? What if it's ruthless? Thinking about the second year of junior high school, I hurried back to my parents' house to have a look.

If you want to say that Lin Xiao has been diligent and thrifty all his life, who doesn't praise him? But since I became a scribe, I couldn't help but get a little carried away for a while.

Chinese New Year's Eve couldn't wait to marry the step-room back home, and after the friends who invited him finished making trouble in the cave room, someone laughed and said: "Let's have a tent to play today, and go home for the New Year when we are done." ”

Lin Xiao saw that everyone was happy, smiled and didn't say anything, the man said: "I'll make a fool of myself first, spread the tent, and the newcomers will hold the Hehuan bell; Talented and beautiful people take advantage of the power of wine, everyone will descend the dragon tonight. ”

Most of the people present were cultured people, and someone immediately sang: "Scatter the tent south, from now on, the green will not be cold; Xiangluo a little peach blossom rain, carry to the lamp to take a closer look.

In the tent, discipline the bride to empty her feet; The bud is accustomed to wind and rain, and to the twelve peaks of Wushan.

Sprinkle the tent west, and the fair lady comes out of the boudoir; has been guarding for 10,000 years with white hair, and the wolf is inseparable.

Scattering the north of the tent, the famous flower is the golden valley; The guests coveted it in vain, and the hedgehog wanted to eat swan meat.

On the tent, the newcomer has no pretense; When I went to bed at night, the old monk struck the bell.

Under the tent, the newcomer rectified the Jiao Pa. It is necessary to wait for the clouds and rain to be harvested, and the peach blossoms of Wuling are grateful. ”

There are elegant and vulgar, but it is much better than the market, everyone cheered and laughed, Lin Xiao smiled bitterly and each gave a box of sticks and incense, and toasted one by one, these people took the gifts and scattered.

Lin Jingjing hid in the house and did not show up, Lin Xiao checked the door candle, entered the house and latched the door.

This Xu Xian, surnamed Ma, looked at Lin Xiao's appearance and sighed secretly, and secretly said What kind of Lin Xianggong should I be, it turned out to be such an old Xianggong, why should my wife pit me? (To be continued......)
