In the evening, a reunion banquet was held in the flower hall, Shi Lan ate a few bites absentmindedly, and when she waited for the New Year's Day around the fireplace at night, she forcibly twisted her muscles and bones, making her face pale and her body trembling. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Han was afraid that she was really sick, so he didn't dare to let her stay up all night to keep watch for the New Year.

Ruan's mother got the words, and hurriedly carried Shi Lan back to Fangyan Courtyard.

After entering the door, Shi Lan immediately sent the other little maids out, handed the small box to Ruan's mother, and told her the old lady's words again, "Mom, what do you mean by grandmother?" ”

Ruan's mother opened the box and saw that there were two Huadian inside, a comb with gold wire twisted and a beautifully woven Jinle.

When Ruan's mother saw it, her face immediately straightened, and her already loose cheeks suddenly lifted up a little, and after a long time, she suddenly showed a smile, gently closed the box, and said: "You should keep your head after the new year, the concubine prepared for you are all flower hairpins, bead rings, and you can't bring them in a few days, the old lady sent this, I'm afraid I'm worried that we have missed it, and we didn't prepare early." ”

Shi Lan frowned, looking at Ruan's mother, she always felt that she seemed to be hiding something and didn't say it.

Ruan's mother was too emotional, and she couldn't help but show it for a while, but now she has already returned to normal, even under Shi Lan's scrutinizing eyes, she still smiled very sincerely, which made Shi Lan feel that she was nervous, and she thought about other people's kindness.

Green Jade whispered through the curtain: "Lady, the eldest lady asked if you are better, do you want to invite Lang Zhong to come over and have a look." ”

Shi Lan hurriedly said no, the New Year invited Lang Zhong to come back, isn't that a plain conversation.

Green Jade answered, and then footsteps outside the door grew farther and farther away.

Shi Lan turned her head to look at Ruan's mother again, but saw that she had already turned around and put the small box in the cabinet and locked it, and then went to the burning charcoal fire to pick up a few pieces of charcoal and put them in a few copper kettles, wrapped them layer by layer, put them on the soft mattress, and covered the quilt to warm the bed.

Shi Lan kicked her foot depressedly, the original owner has lived in the north since he was a child, and he doesn't know anything about the etiquette here, Shi Lan hasn't been here for a long time, and most of the things he knows are half-understood, at this time, Ruan's mother clearly didn't tell her, Shi Lan was helpless even if she was anxious, so she could only run to the mirror to unload the beads and other things, and waited sullenly to be served to bed.

At this time, Ruan's mother, who was facing away from Shi Lan, had a very bad face, her eyes, which had never smiled for three minutes, showed a cold edge, and the corners of her mouth were as tight as a blade.

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, before dawn, Shi Lan got up and followed the whole family to worship their ancestors.

After finishing, Ruan's mother excused Shi Lan's weak body, refused the invitation of Sun and Pan Jinxuan, and took her back to Fangyan Courtyard.

As soon as the New Year passes, time seems to become faster, after the lively and busy New Year, it is the beginning of spring in a blink of an eye, and the buds pass through the cold and gentle stretch that is completely dispersed, or the pink or red or yellow buds stand timidly between them, showing a trace of style shyly.

The Han family had already been explained by the concubine and began to plan to prepare the Spring Festival Flower Banquet in the mansion, and set the date before the Flower Dynasty Festival.

On the tenth day of the first month of February, the garden of the Hou Mansion was full of fragrant clothes and temples, and the figures were crowded, and the Han family affectionately greeted several noble concubines to drink tea and chat in the flower hall, Pan Jinxuan was caught by the Han family to greet the visiting little lady, because she was worried that she would make a mistake alone, Shi Lan was moved by Pan Jinxuan's begging, and had to look at everyone here, and endure the nonsense that they talked about rouge gouache or discussed whether a certain word was neat and tidy.

"It's boring, isn't it?"

A figure in the corner suddenly walked towards her, Shi Lan tilted her head, and saw that it was Zhang Erniang, who had not met since she left the palace.

"You're here too?"

Shi Lan was a little surprised, most of the little ladies brought by the noble ladies invited by the Han family this time were of the same age as Pan Jinxuan, and Zhang Erniang was the same age as herself, so there was no need to come over to join in the fun.

Zhang Erniang glanced at her lightly, and then turned to look at the flower hall where the Han family was, "I'll take a look at who the aunt of the Pan family is." ”

Shi Lan raised her eyebrows, is this a child who has just left his head to say? Even if she is young and old, but on such a sensitive topic, she should show a little girl's shyness or shyness.

Zhang Erniang looked at her playfully and said, "Don't tell me you don't know the purpose of the Hou Mansion holding this flower banquet." ”

Shi Lan didn't speak.

Zhang Erniang looked at her in surprise, and said with a smile for a while: "No, the concubine didn't tell you?" ”

Shi Lan shook her head slowly, Zhang Erniang pondered for a moment, nodded and said, "Also, there is a concubine behind you, that kind of bad luck should not fall on you." ”

Shi Lan's mind moved, frowned, and deliberately pretended to be impatient: "If you have something to say, just say it, I'm not a big sister, and I don't have the patience to play dumb riddles with you." ”

Zhang Erniang turned her face and seemed to say something.

At this time, there was a sudden commotion in the garden, Pan Jinyue wore a little demon wearing gold silk and wore twelve sprinkled gold skirts and swayed over, surrounded by a few little ladies who had a good relationship with her in the past.

Zhang Erniang looked at Pan Jinyue coldly, and suddenly let out a cold sneer.

This was the first time Shi Lan had seen her show such an expression to others since she had known her, and she couldn't help but be a little surprised.

Zhang Erniang quickly put away the expression on her face, and said coldly when she first met: "Although the thirteenth lang of the Qin family is famous, he is tyrannical by nature, and there are already two rooms in the family who have been abused to death by him. ”

Shi Lan couldn't help frowning when she heard this, and wanted to ask her how she knew about such a private thing, but Zhang Erniang pursed her lips, her eyes turned to Pan Jinyue, who was getting closer and closer to this side, and walked away without looking back.

"Hey, you wait," Shi Lan hurriedly wanted to chase after her, but Pan Jinyue stopped her.

"Siniang, where are you going?"

As soon as this voice came into her ears, Shi Lan knew that Pan Jinyue was very close, and if she ignored her call at this time and continued to chase after her, it would make people feel that they were afraid of her.

So Shi Lan turned his head, took two steps forward with a smile on his face, and said, "It turned out to be the third sister, I don't know what the third sister called me?" ”

Pan Jinyue looked at all the girls who followed her, and said with a smile: "These are my close friends, I heard that you are my own sister who has lived away for a long time, and I want to come and take a look." ”

Shi Lan secretly smacked her in her heart, she was not an object, she would come and see it, but she smiled very happily on her face, and her steps were even more cheerful two steps forward, and she bowed her knees and said, "The fourth mother of Panfu has given you a salute." ”

The few little ladies with bead wreaths in front of them all looked at each other when they saw Shi Lan's gentle, reasonable and kind appearance.

This is not as dazzling but polite as Sanniang of the Pan family said?

Shi Lan got up, looked at everyone, and tilted her head playfully, as if to ask them what was wrong.

The little ladies who followed Pan Jinyue were not very old, and when they saw Shi Lan selling so cutely, they all returned the salute, and two of them also had younger sisters at home and believed in Buddhism, and they also came forward to ask her about following her master's practice.

Shi Lan was still a little reserved at first, and her eyes swept towards Pan Jinyue, meaning to let her out of the siege.

Who would have thought that she would hide her mouth and smile, her eyes very similar to Chang's were bent, and she said: "Siniang, if you really know, you can tell everyone, and it will solve everyone's curiosity." ”

When Shi Lan heard this, she pursed her mouth, knowing that this was a trap set by Pan Jinyue, so she simply let go and said casually.

Shi Lan has experienced a journey of more than half a year, she has traveled with countless people, she has seen a lot of robbers and bandits, and there are countless monks and nuns, so she is full of nonsense, and she really bluffed these little ladies who have never been out of the house, making them believe that she has really followed the practice of high monks.

Pan Jinyue watched coldly as Shi Lan abducted her friend so easily, her face turned blue with anger, but she had nothing to say, after all, she brought the person here, and she also asked her to say it, now that people have said it, she will drive people away, then she won't want to mix in this circle in the future.

Shi Lan looked at her embarrassment coldly, and the corners of her mouth inadvertently showed a mocking smile. (To be continued.) )
