Chapter 50: Drinking by the Lotus Pond

I couldn't go to the Qinhuai River last time, so it's good to see the dinner party of the rich nobles this time!

But the fifth senior brother said, although I am pretending to be a man this time, I am not a man after all, I am still an unmarried lady, and it is better not to do such a thing as showing my face. Besides, I'm not in good health, and I've been tired for so many days, so it's better to rest more.

My understanding of the words of the fifth senior brother is-

You're a beautiful girl, what kind of dinner are you having with a few men at night, wash and sleep early!

When the moon was on the willow tops, I watched with great resentment as the fifth and ninth senior brothers left the courtyard to go to a banquet that I had never seen before.

As for Senior Brother Xiaobai, he has always been the most unpopular person, and he will definitely not go to such an occasion.

After eating the little white porridge, I lay on the windowsill and looked at the sky for a while, alas, I had nothing to do, so I had to go to bed early......

After sitting in the bathtub for more than half an hour, I also figured out that Xu Dashao's banquet was probably a Hongmen banquet.

You said, there is a group of people who suddenly come to the door and reach out to ask for your baby, you always have to keep an eye on it, and find out the bottom of this group of people, right?

Thinking about this, I think the sincerity of going to the banquet is not so sincere.

After an hour of soaking, I slowly climbed out of the tub and dressed myself, and the door slammed again.

Alas, when will Senior Brother Xiaobai's problem of kicking the door be changed?

I pulled my middle coat unhurriedly, and when I turned my head, I saw Senior Brother Xiaobai pacing in leisurely.

"This moonlight is just right, it's always boring to drink alone, so come and drink with me!" Senior Brother Xiaobai's tone was light.

Alas, my little junior sister is really miserable, and she even has to do such a thing as accompanying wine, alas......

I glanced at the soft, warm bed with great sorrow, put on a robe at random, and went out with Senior Brother Xiaobai.

Out of the west side of the courtyard, turn to the right, is the lotus pond of Xufu, the drinking place chosen by Senior Brother Xiaobai this time, is the verandah by the lotus pond.

It is now the middle of September, and the lotus pond has long been gone, but this Xu Mansion is very similar to the hundred-year-old blessed land of the old man Xu, and it is also planted with osmanthus trees, at this time the osmanthus flowers bloom just right, and the fragrance of osmanthus wafts all over the courtyard.

Although I was drinking with Senior Brother Xiaobai, most of the time, I was staring at the black lotus pond in a daze, thinking about the bitter leaves, thinking about the antidote, and thinking about the marriage next year and after the ceremony.

When I turned my head to look again, the two pots of osmanthus wine brought by Senior Brother Xiaobai had already bottomed out, and now, Senior Brother Xiaobai shook a vegetarian fan and was admiring the moon.

I was uneasy, for fear that Senior Brother Xiaobai would drink too much and lose my face in this Xu Mansion, so I quickly stared at him and took a closer look.

Fortunately, Senior Brother Xiaobai's face was only slightly red, and the hand shaking the fan was very stable, and I was relieved.

Under the hazy moonlight, I looked at the little white senior brother who shook the plain fan and was dressed in a white robe, and suddenly a question came to my mind-

Senior Brother Xiaobai wears a white robe all day long, isn't he afraid of getting dirty?

Such a beautiful day, accompanied by osmanthus wine, will always make people relax, yes, so I thought, I also asked.

Senior Brother Xiaobai shook the hand of the su fan for a moment, and then lowered his head to enjoy the lotus pond without lotus flowers.

Alas, my problem is also very unnutritious, no wonder Senior Brother Xiaobai doesn't answer, alas......

While he was thinking wildly, Senior Brother Xiaobai stared at the black lotus pond and said faintly: "This is the mourning dress I wear for my brother." ”
