My name is Hanakage, and I heard that they picked me up under a clump of moon flowers, so the adults gave me this name. And my best friend, Zixue, was found under a snow-covered wisteria trellis. Thanks to the talent, I came up with such an elegant name, just for this, I often advise Zixue not to despise him too much.

Phew, Zixue spit out a mouthful of melon seed skin, dangled on the railing with her two lower legs, and said, "When will he stop begging for his wife, I will no longer despise him." ”

……

Well, we, adults, just this one problem.

Lascivious.

Although he always "boasts of being romantic", his flower-like wife asks one after another, isn't it lustful?

"What are you two little things doing?"

Suddenly, a finger gently knocked on the door of my head, it was Sister Caiwei in the garden.

Crossing his waist and staring at the melon seed skin on the ground, Zixue was so frightened that Zixue hurriedly jumped off the railing, "We promise to clean it up!" ”

Sister Cai Wei unceremoniously took away all the bags of melon seeds in her hand, poked her head and said, "How many times have I told you, don't knock melon seeds when you change your teeth, and then your mouth will be crooked, look at how you will marry in the future!" ”

Zixue was trained to droop her head, pitiful like a rabbit.

In fact, if you look closely, you can see that in the middle of Zixue's lips, there are obvious traces that have been repaired. And she was discarded by her parents because of this. And I was born with six fingers.

Luckily, we all met adults.

He hired a doctor and mended Zixue's lips. He also healed my hand. He still refuses us to recognize him as a master, but only to be our master.

Being an adult means that when we grow up, we all have to leave the broken garden and live on our own. Actually, I don't want to go, and Zixue doesn't want to go, but if we don't go, too many people will come, and then the broken garden won't be able to live.

Because the broken garden is a very beautiful garden, and there are many, many good people in it. Everyone grows vegetables and flowers. I also fed chickens and pigeons, which was fun.

I heard that this used to be a place where the adult family lived, but because the adult family was so kind, they often helped orphans. A lot of people threw the children and old people who didn't want to have them here. It makes it impossible for the adult family to live a normal life. I can only move to the Pingwang Mansion over there.

Then all the servants left here were their servants, and those people stopped throwing children and old people here.

I don't know why my mom and dad threw me away, but I learned my first lesson here. That is, unless a person is going to die, he should not abandon or hurt his relatives and friends.

Adults say that you can't be full of hatred in your heart, because that will make you unhappy. So I agreed with Zixue that we wouldn't blame our parents, but neither of us wanted to see them again.

Adults have said that you should not hold grudges as a person, but you should not easily forget the injuries you have suffered. Otherwise, they will trip over the same stone again.

It's a bit deep, I don't quite understand.

However, I have seen with my own eyes that Ah Guo's father and mother ran to the door to beg him to go back after the adults cured him of his sores. But the housekeeper's uncle only used one sentence to send the man back.

"If you want someone, you can leave the money for the medicine. If you don't have any money, make an IOU and pay it back slowly. ”

But their father and mother are gone.

Later, when Aunt Yao, the daughter-in-law of the housekeeper's uncle, taught me to cook, she said, "His family can throw him away once when something happens to him, and there may not be a second time in the future." You see, if you encounter such a little difficulty, you don't want it, how can such a father and mother believe it? ”

I understand this.

A sick child doesn't even want human teeth, if Ah Guo's family really treats him well, why don't they pay back slowly? The housekeeper's uncle said that it was okay to go for another twenty or thirty years, but they still refused. It's useless to ask for such a father and mother.

Anyway, I agreed with Zixue that when we grow up, we will earn our own money to pay off our own medicine. As for now, we have to work hard and not eat and live in vain.

"See you at dinner!" Zixue, who was collected melon seeds, went to feed the ducks, I swept the melon seed shells on the ground, and I was going to help in the kitchen.

We're actually pretty capable, aren't we?

However, Sister Cai Wei stopped me and gave me a task, "You go and change your clothes to go out, and follow me to the palace." ”

I looked at the sky with some embarrassment, it was almost time to prepare dinner, would you like to leave at this time?

Sister Cai Wei said, "I asked you to go, there must be someone arranged in the kitchen, don't worry, one less of you, you won't starve to death of the people in the garden, let's go." ”

Well, I'm back to change my clothes.

Actually, I don't want to go to Pingwangfu, there is one thing, I just don't want to see adults.

This, not that he's bad, but-

But the more you are afraid of something, the more you will come.

"Yo, isn't this the Flower Shadow? The longer it gets, the more beautiful it gets, come on, what good things are you sending again? "Seeing that handsome adult who was too handsome to talk to, I had no choice but to go over with Sister Cai Wei to say goodbye.

"Lord Hui, it was the second lady who wanted some roses from the garden to make spices, so we sent them over."

The adult smiled, but there was something different in his eyes, "The roses in the garden are blooming again, are they blooming well this year?" ”

"It's good." I don't know why, but I suddenly felt that the adult seemed a little sad, so I told him very seriously, "This year's rain is just right, and the flowers are blooming well." It's red and gorgeous, and it's all over the fence. ”

The adult turned his head to look at me, and suddenly smiled inappropriately, "Did the flower shadow prick your finger when you picked the flowers?" Show me. ”

This adult!

As soon as my ears were hot, I quickly hid behind Sister Caiwei, so annoyed that I wanted to dig a pit and bury myself. I know that this adult likes to tease the little girl the most, why did he be fooled again?

I only heard the adults laughing sullenly above their heads, "Xiaohuaying is so upright and so shy, maybe she can be a female official in the future." ”

Who is like him?

Zixue and I have already made an appointment, and we will set up a small food stall together in the future. I cook, she greets guests. Maybe one day, we will be able to open a big restaurant like Zhujia Restaurant, just like the mother of adults.

The adult's mother, the famous eldest princess of Jiashan, heard that when she went to the capital at the beginning of that year, she also set it up from a small stall. She can do it, why can't we?

Hehe, if it's possible, Zixue and I would like to go to the southwest to visit Her Royal Highness the eldest princess.

I heard that she used to be when she was an adult. I often come to Beijing. Now that I'm old and can't stand the toss, I don't come much.

It's a pity.

But it doesn't matter, we can save money. Grow up to see her. I heard that the eldest princess is very nice. I also cook many, many delicious dishes. If only she wanted to teach me.

Hmm, but I heard that the apprentice is going to give a meeting gift, so what should I give her?

“…… Whining. Mother, why didn't Dad carry me? Why? ”

"Don't say it's you, even if your eldest brother ......"

When I walked to the gate of the courtyard of the second lady, I suddenly heard such a private thing, I quickly pretended not to hear it, and stood away a little. Sister Cai Wei did the same, deliberately put her steps heavy and coughed twice.

The crying inside soon stopped abruptly, and a maid sister came out and led us in.

The second lady was very happy to see the two large baskets of fresh and moist roses we had brought here. Ordered someone to reward us, and took us down for tea and snacks.

Sister Cai Wei was polite and accepted the kindness.

It's just that we didn't want to leave for snacks, so we only drank tea, packed the snacks in a handkerchief, and went back with an empty basket.

After dinner, I took a snack and invited Zixue to hide behind the garden to eat, and 1510 talked about what I saw today.

Zixue took a bite of the cake and said vaguely, "You just have to hug it, why do you have to carry it?" ”

I was silent and couldn't help asking, "If your dad hadn't thrown you down, wouldn't you want him to carry it?" ”

Zixue stopped talking.

If I had a father, I wanted him to carry it.

Once upon a time, when I was a little younger, the uncles in the garden carried me, and I liked it so much with such broad shoulders.

But I know that I'm not their child, so I can't always be carried by people.

But if I have a child in the future, I must have my own husband and carry her every day. Well, it would be better if he would carry me.

However, seeing that Zixue was so silent that she couldn't even eat the sweet pastries, I wanted to change the topic, so I couldn't help but say more, "You say, why don't adults carry the third young master, is the third young master not well-behaved?" ”

Zixue suddenly said, "How come?" Even if he is not well-behaved, he is still a child, and the adult is so good-hearted, why don't you carry him? If you don't carry it, there must be something. Actually, I think it's quite boring for the second lady to say that, why didn't she take the little master and ask the adults directly? ”

I honestly said, "Maybe it's not good to ask, right?" Don't you say that the eldest young master hasn't been carried before? ”

Zixue sneered, "I don't believe it, and the eldest lady won't ask." The second lady is good at everything, but she has a bad temperament, what can't she say clearly? But it's also to blame the adults, why do you want to marry so many? ”

Worst! I secretly regret that I shouldn't have brought up this topic.

Sure enough, Zixue began to complain about the adult's heart again, "I really don't know how the adult's husband was blind back then, and he wanted to marry his niece to him." ”

Ahem, I can't agree with that.

So far, many people in the capital know that the first family affair of the adult was not asked for by himself, but by countless people who came to ask for marriage.

Speaking of us, it's a good skill.

He was born before he could walk, and he was made an official by the old emperor of the previous dynasty. When he grew up, when he was only sixteen years old, he relied on his own ability to mix in a pseudonym and won the top prize among students from other places.

Later, those people were red-eyed and said that he could only study, so what's the use? In a fit of anger, the adults went to participate in the martial arts again, and came back with a top prize.

Although some people scolded him for participating in the martial arts as a superfluous move, no one can deny that we adults are really a powerful person who God has given him a big pie.

Such a son-in-law, who looks good and has a good family background, has more famous ladies who come to ask for marriage than Zixue feeds ducks.

In the end, it was really annoying, so the adult's husband made the decision for him, and went home to marry the niece of the Su family.

I've seen that big lady, and she's a very different character. I can't describe it well, I just think that although she is always smiling, I just don't dare to speak out loud in front of her.

However, although she is stricter, she has a fair heart. Adults love to joke with everyone. I've never joked about her in front of anyone. As for the human queen, I don't know.

In fact, the eldest lady is also very beautiful, but she still can't resist the adult marrying three wives and four concubines.

I heard that this is the ultimate goal of a man to mix well. Anyway, I don't understand, and I don't want my future husband to mix too well. Of course, it's also determined not to look so good.

It's so recruiting!

At present, the adult already has a wife, a flat wife, and three concubines, and there are still two before they are satisfied. That's why we have to avoid him desperately, even if we are hooked one day.

No way. Adults are so good-looking. Laughing, it makes people's hearts flutter and keep jumping.

can be other people's wives and concubines, and I heard that they will fight for jealousy all day long.

I really don't understand, if you like to be jealous. It's good to buy one bottle for one person. Why fight. Vinegar isn't expensive, is it?

Fortunately, the ladies of adults do not fight.

Last month, I was doing chores under Aunt Yao, who was in charge of the spoon over there, and I didn't see any lady who was particularly jealous. Even the fourth lady, who just had a baby in her belly, didn't eat it, but was an adult's husband. said that his body was a little bad, and the doctor said that he should eat more vinegar.

But Mr. doesn't like to eat sour things the most, so Aunt Yao has no choice but to cook some sweet and sour dishes for him. He also asked the housekeeper to write a letter to the southwest to ask Her Royal Highness the eldest princess if there was any good way. I told Aunt Yao that if she replied, she would tell me too.

I'm also curious, how can I make something sour delicious?

"Did you listen to me?"

Suddenly being beaten by Zixue dissatisfied, I came back to my senses, where did she say? hurriedly said perfunctorily, "Actually, it's not easy for the second lady." ”

Really, the second lady of the adult, who is still a relative of the emperor's family, is also a young lady, I heard that it was because of the adult's lovesickness that she almost died, and the adult married it.

said that she was a flat wife, but in fact, she would also be crushed.

"I didn't say she was bad." Zixue muttered, but she was very disdainful, "Who in this world can't live without whom?" Seeing that she has given birth to two children, how can she have a short life? ”

My friend is a staunch monogamous, so she doesn't have a good opinion of the four ladies except the eldest lady.

But in my opinion, this kind of thing is a willingness to fight and a willingness to suffer.

These ladies know that the adults have wives and are willing to marry, and the eldest ladies also agree, that is, it is their own business to suffer some grievances.

But to say that these ladies are not good at all is also false.

For example, when it comes to the third aunt, she was born in a mysterious place called Jianghu, and I heard that her mother also has something to do with the adult's father.

Last year, the flood in the north was all thanks to the three ladies who traveled thousands of miles to go back to their parents' homes to ask for help, and helped the adults open up several rivers to save tens of millions of people.

Besides, the fourth aunt, she is a medical idiot, because she dared to use a knife on the stomach of a living person, she was almost burned to death as a demon. It was the adults who married her back to save her life. It was only when adults protected her that she could save many lives. It's like Zixue's cleft lip and my branch fingers are all cured by her.

As for the fifth aunt, she has a very magical ability.

She knows the weather, and she knows it won't rain tomorrow.

I heard that she is still a descendant of a certain faction, and it is said that adults will marry her because she lost a bet.

Some people also say that the fifth aunt is the best at deceiving people. But if she can overthrow all the adults who are known as the smartest people in the world, I always think that this fifth aunt is the last thing that the whole family can not mess with except for the eldest lady.

In fact, even the second lady who seems to be the most useless is not useless. She often came back from the palace to get some good things, especially according to the fat powder made from the palace noodles, which was especially liked by the sisters in the garden.

As for the faults, who doesn't?

As long as they are willing to live in one place, what do others have to say?

I'm just curious, why are adults a little unhappy when they talk about roses today?

Zixue will always move faster than me, "Then go and ask." ”

The best place for the roses to bloom in the broken garden is guarded by Grandpa Bai Xiang.

He has a good temper, except that cats and dogs are not allowed to make trouble, usually our little girl wants to pinch a flower to wear, he always smiles and chooses the best for us.

"Why are you two here so late? There will be no flowers to pick this time. ”

"We don't pick flowers, we just want to come and chat with you." Zixue's mouth has always been sweeter than mine, and she soon coaxed Grandpa Bai Xiang to ask, "Who lived in this garden before?" You clean so much every day. ”

Grandpa Bai Xiang smiled. "This garden is where the old lady lived in the past, and every brick and tile here is transported from her hometown thousands of miles away. The old lady used to like flowers the most, so the eldest young master and the county lord, the flowers planted in her yard were the most beautiful...... I still remember when I was a child, the eldest young master liked to pull flowers in the yard the most. The rose has thorns, pricked her fingers, and pulled it with tears in her eyes. At that time, the old lady sat under the porch and watched happily...... Later, a little master was added. I watched the eldest young master pull flowers for his younger brother. Don't let him pull it yet, for fear of stabbing him. Hey, how many years has it been in this blink of an eye......"

Zixue and I gave him a big young master. The eldest young master on the right was confused. But we know one thing.

This garden. The roses here are related to the families of adults.

"Then why don't you take good care of the garden? Don't pick these flowers in the future, adults will feel distressed. ”

Look at my serious face. Grandpa Bai Xiang smiled instead, "Silly boy, this flower is blooming, isn't it just for people to see?" If you don't pick it, it also has to be thanked, even when the old lady was there, there was no way to stop you from picking flowers. How can adults feel distressed because they have picked a few flowers? As long as it is not taken off and deliberately harmed, the old lady likes to watch the little girls take it and wear it. ”

Is that the case?

Then this old lady is really a good person.

Of course, adults are also good people.

But why would he not carry his son?

I wanted to ask, but Grandpa Bai Xiang had already dozed off. Elderly people are like that, they fall asleep while talking. I took out a blanket from the house, lightly put it on top of Zixue with Zixue, and then quietly closed the door and said hello to the little guy in the yard before leaving.

It's getting dark and we're going to bed.

As for why the adult didn't carry his son, we all completely forgot about it after sleeping all night.

Every day is busy and fulfilling, Zixue's teeth fell out and slowly grew back.

When the first snow fell in the lunar month, when I was biting the salt and pepper hazelnuts to eat, I suddenly felt that something was wrong, and when I vomited again, a small white tooth and the husk fell on the palm of my hand.

Hahahaha!

Zixue smirked, "It's finally your turn to be a toothless old lady!" Hurry up, I'll take you to get your teeth out. Is it above or below? ”

Bottom.

You have to throw it high on the roof.

Zixue told me to wait below, and she climbed up the tree to throw my teeth. The three-story building was the tallest house in the house. But it's still not easy to throw it accurately.

Seeing that Zixue threw it three times and fell down, I said, "Forget it, why don't you throw it anywhere." ”

"No! What if that tooth doesn't grow? Zixue asked me to throw my teeth to her, frowning and gritting my teeth and throwing them up.

But this time, she used too much force, and the tooth was thrown into the corner of the room, but it made a circle and fell out again.

"Ouch! Who's throwing things? ”

A strange boy jumped out, pulled the tooth out of the back of his neck, and asked viciously.

I shuddered with fear, and Zixue almost fell off the tree.

"That's how you welcome, guests from afar?" Seeing that the boy was becoming more and more unrelenting, I was already not good at words, and I was more and more unable to speak.

"Luo Xiaoke, don't scare other girls!" A tall man came over solemnly, his physique was a little scary, but his face was not vicious, and at first glance he was the father of the little boy.

Looking at the stunned us, he smiled and patted his son's head, "Go, help the little sister throw her teeth up." They didn't mean it, what are you murderous? Little girl in the tree, come down quickly, and I'll pick you up. ”

The man's hand was very warm and steady at first glance, and he took the silly Zixue down, and the boy named Luo Xiaoke took out a slingshot from his arms, and easily hit my teeth on the eaves, and then looked proud.

Putting Zixue on the ground, the tall man brought us two more pieces of candy and touched our heads, "Don't be afraid, we are also the ones who went out of this broken garden." Otherwise, you won't be able to get in. ”

A flash of inspiration suddenly flashed through my mind, "Luo? Your surname is Luo? You were the first to live in Luojia Alley? ”

The middle-aged man smiled, and clear crow's feet appeared at the corners of his eyes, "Yes, there used to be only one yard there, why is it now an alley?" ”

"Because there were more people, and later a lot of people who went out came back to pay. I bought a lot of land next to the garden and slowly built a house, and now it is an alley. Uncle, are you going to take a look? We can take you there. By the way, what's your name, everyone who goes out of here, will leave a name at the mouth of the alley, what's your name? ”

Speaking seriously, Zixue is still much more articulate than me.

I only heard the uncle say, "My name is Luo Wu." ”

Yes?!

I was shocked with Zixue.

Luo Wu? That was the first name of the mouth of the alley. And Luojia Alley is also named after him. Hitherto. Some of the nameless orphans adopted by the broken garden are also surnamed Luo.

Zixue and I looked at each other, it was when we met our ancestor, ah no. Is it an old-timer?

But he didn't leave the capital decades ago. Did you follow Her Royal Highness the eldest princess to the southwest? How did you come back again?

Could it be said. Her Royal Highness the eldest princess is back?

My heart was excited, was I finally going to meet the legendary eldest princess?

But soon, Luo Xiaoke let me down.

"The eldest princess didn't come. The colt didn't come, so my father came with someone to follow the second master. I heard that Mr. was going to eat some kind of vinegar, so the eldest princess and the second master pondered a recipe and brewed a few jars of fruit vinegar and sent it. My father brought me here to study medicine with the fourth lady. He will turn around and leave, and I will stay with the fourth lady as an apprentice. You don't know, do you? My father's bruises are terrible, and this is the case in our southwest. The second best is my eldest brother, but when I finish my studies and go back, I will be the best......"

Seeing him shaking his thumb proudly, I wasn't interested in listening to it at all.

The eldest princess didn't come, so disappointed.

But I heard that the second master, who is even more powerful than her, is here, and I still want to see it.

This time, I didn't wait for Sister Cai Wei to call, so I went to ask, "Is there anything to send over?" ”

Sister Cai Wei didn't laugh at me, but thought about it seriously, "The second master came from afar, and the road must be hard, so you have to eat something light." You go to the cave to collect some fresh mushrooms and send them, well, and then ask Zixue to collect a few duck eggs and send them. Be careful not to break it. ”

Got it! I was so happy to carry the small basket to collect the mushrooms, and then soon, Zixue also collected the duck eggs, and the two of us went to the Pingwang Mansion so happily for the first time.

"Wait for me!" Suddenly, that Luo Xiaoke also caught up, "Hehe, my father is going to drink with those old uncles, you can also take me out to recognize the disciples, and I will help you carry your things." ”

Don't. Zixue and I both clutched the basket tightly, the boys love to jump, there is no certainty, what if he falls?

"It's good if you just follow behind."

Okay, Luo Xiaoke followed. But after a while, he ran to the front to say a few words, and when we expressed our dissatisfaction, he ran to the back to follow.

returned to the Pingwang Mansion back and forth, but just happened to meet the adults who got the news and hurried back from the yamen.

Well, in fact, we don't know where the adult works, but I have heard that his official is not small, and he seems to be very busy.

Zixue pulled me to walk against the wall, and I was afraid that the adults would make fun of us again, but I didn't expect that he didn't notice us at all, and just rushed in.

"Brother, brother!"

I only heard a very bright voice running cheerfully, he was still in the courtyard when he opened his mouth, but when the voice fell, he had already rushed to the gate.

Then, then he ran up behind the adults and, in full view of everyone, jumped on his back.

And the adult, the adult actually laughed, and was still wearing court clothes, and turned in circles with him on his back.

I look stupid, and Zixue is stupid too.

Is this still an adult who has already fathered a bunch of children? Is this still the adult who still has three points of nobility and elegance in his laughter and scolding?

Moreover, the second master seems to be a little taller than the adult, right? He's not too young, isn't he? Why is he embarrassed to let adults carry it? It's still an adult who doesn't even carry his own children!

Zixue rubbed her eyes, and I rubbed my eyes too.

Then we both looked at each other, and both closed our mouths wide open at the same time.

really

Adults are still too inscrutable for us to understand.

"Why did you come here without making a sound? It's naughty! Lost weight again, right? ”

"Not really! If you don't believe me, I'll carry you. But with a smile, the adult still carried his brother on his back and went inside. That kind of doting smile has never been seen on his face to others.

And the second master, who was not too young, smiled like a child, and the monkey was on his back, babbling privately.

Such natural and affectionate, happy and satisfied, I suddenly envy it.

It's nice to have an older brother like that.

"What is this?" Luo Xiaoke came up again and said, "The adults are good to our second master, and they send a lot of good things to the second master every year, and the second master's daughter-in-law is still chased by the adults." ”

What, and such interesting gossip?

Zixue's eyes immediately widened, but this time that Luo Xiaoke learned badly, "If you want to know, you have to recognize me as a brother." ”

"Will you carry us?" Somehow, I suddenly asked.

Luo Xiaoke patted his chest and said, "What's there?" Do you want to try it now? ”

Want.

I nodded earnestly, and unceremoniously jumped onto his back.

Wow!

It feels really good.

As for that gossip, let Zixue say, I just need to lie on the back of this cheap brother and enjoy this feeling.

Hmm, then?

Then, I have always been Luo Xiaoke's sister, and Zixue, who loves to listen to gossip, became my brother's wife.

Then we went to the southwest together and settled there.

I met Her Royal Highness the eldest princess, whom I had always admired, learned a little trade from her, and opened a small restaurant. I also married a good man who was willing to carry my children every day and carry me from time to time.

The only pity is that Zixue refuses to come to run the hall for me, she wants to run the hall for my brother.

This guy who is heavy on color and light on friends!

I thought angrily that if she dared to say anything about adulthood, I would see what I could say about her.

Uh-huh, our story, that's it.
