Gu Sisi and his two elder brothers took the peony flowers and walked to the door of the master's house, and before they knocked on the door, they heard the master's deep and lofty voice coming, "Old woman, why do you always regret chess, it's not interesting to play like this!" Grandma Cui's voice came over immediately, "I regret two steps, you let me not do it!" The master said helplessly: "Okay, let you not do it, let you regret it again!"

"It seems that Master, they are in a good mood today, I'll knock on the door. After Gu Xing'an knocked twice, he heard the master's voice coming, "Who, this is coming!"

"Master, it's us. A silver bell-like voice responded, as soon as the words landed, the door opened, and the old man Cui looked at the three people at the door, quite happy, "Yo, it's Sisi, Xing'an is also here, quick, come in." Don't say it yet, old man, I guess you're Xinghua, right?" Old man Cui looked at Gu Xinghua, who had never met, stopped Brother An, who wanted to speak, and after looking up and down, he gave an answer.

"Hello, Grandpa Cui, I was recognized by you when we met for the first time!" Gu Xinghua was a little surprised, he didn't expect that this first time they met, Grandpa Cui would guess who he was.

"Where, the main thing is that you and Brother An are still a little similar. Come, come in, let's go into the house. Why didn't your grandfather come?" Old Man Cui waved his hand casually, explained with a smile, and saw that the three of them didn't see the ancient brother behind them, so he asked casually.

"Hehe, my grandfather is studying chess at home, and he said that he will talk to you next time. Gu Sisi walked in front of the master and replied with a smile.

"Isn't it, it's a coincidence, the old man is playing with your Grandma Cui, your Grandma Cui, this chess game is not very good. Old man Cui raised his eyebrows, he has been studying chess games recently, and he has to kill a few games when he goes back, and it is too boring to play with his wife.

As soon as Old Man Cui's words fell, he heard a gentle and mellow voice sound, "Old man, who do you say is not good at chess?" As soon as Gu Sisi looked up, Grandma Cui stood under the hall and looked at them with a smile, but that smile was a bit of a matter of settling accounts with the master afterwards.

"Well, I didn't say anyone, you listened, listened. Old man Cui chuckled in his heart, "It's bad, just said a word, and the old woman heard it!"

"Hmph, Sisi, why did you come over with your two brothers at night, why are you still carrying a basket. You two, sit casually, just be in your own home, come, eat some butterfly crisp, this is what grandma made today. Grandma Cui took Gu Sisi's hand, walked straight to the table, and greeted the three of them softly, signaling them not to be too restrained.

"Grandma, you can also sit, you don't have to keep calling us. Gu Sisi smiled and asked Grandma Cui to sit down, and easily filled the teacups of the two old men with tea.

"What's this? This leaf is a peony? Old woman, come and take a look. Old man Cui watched Gu Xinghua put the back basket on the corner of the table, and then glanced at it casually, how is this like a peony, he really didn't expect that this back basket actually contained good things.

Gu Xing'an had just finished eating a piece of butterfly cake, this snack was so delicious, and when he was about to eat another piece, he heard the master ask, and he said proudly. "You're right, this is a peony, there are two of them. ”

"Why do these branches and leaves look like Wei Zi's, old woman, look at it. Sisi, where did you get it? Why don't you plant it at home?" Old Man Cui's eyes were full of surprise, his fingers gently brushed the leaves, and turned to ask Gu Sisi, who was eating snacks.

"This is for you and Grandma Cui, and I just dug it up in the mountains today. Gu Sisi wiped the dim sum residue from his mouth and said with a smile.

"For us, Sisi, do you know that these two plants may be the best peony Wei Zi! You just gave it to us?" Old man Cui looked at the innocent smiling face of the little apprentice, he smiled helplessly, he knew that this child didn't understand this, and treated it as an ordinary flower.

"It, it's the best peony!, then wouldn't I spoil one of them!" Gu Xing'an looked at the flower and was dumbfounded.

"It turns out that the leaves on this one were picked by you! Grandma just wondered, one plant grows so well, why is this plant like this, it turned out to be at the hands of my brother An!" As soon as Mrs. Cui heard this, she understood why the leaves of the other plant were sparse.

"Well, grandma, I, I really didn't mean to, I didn't know it was a peony flower at first, I treated it as a general weed, so I pulled it, I, I just pulled a few leaves, really. Gu Xing'an's face immediately turned red, he scratched the back of his head, and hurriedly explained, stammering a little when he spoke.

"Master, grandma, my brother really doesn't know, you two elders should forgive him. By the way, Master, what is Wei Zi? Gu Sisi looked at his brother's appearance, covered his mouth and smiled, looking at his brother's helpless appearance, and then asked, diverting the attention of Master and Grandma Cui from his brother.

"This Wei Zi, on the same level as Yao Huang, Doulu, and Zhao Fen, is one of the four famous peonies. Grandma Cui stroked the green peony leaves, and the whole person's expression was very soft, as if she was recalling something through the flowers.

"Are these two strains one of them?" Gu Xinghua sat next to him, and he didn't speak, and when he heard this, he couldn't hold back, so he opened his mouth to ask.

"Come, the old man will tell you all about it, come and see this plant, the plant is medium and tall, half open, and the branches are relatively thick, and it has been looking at this flower for some years. Look at its leaves, medium-sized round leaves, the total petiole is about 10 cm long, obliquely elongated, the leaflets are ovate, with many notches, blunt ends, with a light purple-red halo on the edges, the veins are concave, the leaf surface is rough, dark green, which is very consistent with Wei Zi's description, so it is very likely that this is Wei Zi. Old man Cui stroked his white beard, the corners of his mouth curled higher, he was really happy in his heart.

Hey, Master, whether it's or not, let's plant it and wait until it blooms next year, right? Gu Xing'an didn't actually understand it, so he said it casually, but who knew that the master's eyes killed him, and he was scared, so he found an excuse to say.

"Hmph, it must be Wei Zi. Sisi, is this really for us?" Old Man Cui looked at his apprentice and knew that this Brother An definitely didn't understand.

"Yes, it's for you two old people, what's wrong? Don't you like it?" Gu Sisi looked at the master's blowing beard and glaring, and blinked back mischievously.

"I like it, of course I like it, our baby has a heart, a heart. Old man, what do you say?" Mrs. Cui really likes it, and being able to raise these two plants can be regarded as fulfilling her dream.

"Since it is the child's heart, we will take it. Didn't you want to plant it before, and you really wanted to do something. Let's plant them in the yard first. I'll have to find a good place to plant it. Wait for next year, I'm going to invite your grandfather to enjoy the flowers. Old man Cui knew what his wife was thinking, so he accepted it calmly.

Out of curiosity, Qi Zhenze wanted to know why the two pets were so close to Gu Sisi, so after everyone settled down, he took the wolf dogs Mo Feng and Mo Er, followed the smell of the leopard cat and Gu Sisi, and found it, and this one arrived here.

At this moment, Qi Zhenze stood under the dark corner, listening to the laughter in the courtyard, and somehow, his mood also became happy. And Mo Feng and Mo Er squatted quietly beside their master, their ears moving slightly, and their sharp eyes observing every move around them.

When the old man Cui sent the three babies to the door, he noticed that there was a strange breath in front of him, and he could feel that there was no malicious intent in this breath, so he didn't say anything, just a little curious, who is this person? Could it be that he came with the three children? The old man Cui shook his head, as long as this person was not malicious, and then turned around and plugged the door and went back to the hall.

The three of them walked home in the night. Qi Zhenze watched the three of them disappear into the night, and then walked out of the corner, the moonlight hit his face, and he saw a little softness in his cold and arrogant eyes.

The soft moon hung above the night, and the distant Milky Way was clearly visible, twinkling with a little starlight, bright and dazzling. The mountain peaks in the distance are covered by darkness, even the trees are black, and a few owls and nightingales are heard in the forest from time to time, making the quiet mountain forest a little mysterious.
