Chapter 24: Chongyang
Lan Xi's life is very fulfilling, he follows his husband in the boudoir school every day, and he has a good relationship with Song Yunyun, and from time to time he stabs Lan Yun with words, and he is only used as a pastime. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
After school, the female red who practiced the words was correct, and the words were always practiced every day until the wrists were sore, and the tip of the nose was sweating.
She also doesn't know how much hard work she has worked on more than usual, and often gets that clever guidance, a good teacher can get it, diligence can make up for it, but she can really see some progress, at least, she couldn't even embroider the stitches neatly in the past, and now embroider flowers like flowers, embroider leaves like leaves, Dong's mother looked at it, and couldn't help but be pleased. Miss, although you don't need to rely on embroidery to eat, but you can't take it out, and you will give the hearts of the elders in the family in the future, and the clothes and objects that your husband is close to you, no matter what, you have to handle it well. Fortunately, the girl is sensible and knows that she has worked hard, as she usually does, she is impatient to pinch a needle, and Dong's mother really doesn't know how much gray hair she has to worry about.
The full days always pass very quickly, and time just slipped away quietly between the fingers, and in a blink of an eye, it was September 9, the Double Ninth Festival.
Because of the Double Ninth Festival, there is a three-day holiday in school, and there is no need to go to school today, but Lanxi is used to getting up early, and he will wake up automatically when the time comes. After washing and dressing up for a while, Liuyan held a silver-blue placket embroidered with a half-open magnolia placket, and a dark green eight-piece Hunan skirt waited for Lanxi to change, and the combed double bun was tied with a silver and blue knot of the same color as the small jacket, and Liuyan inserted two silver pearl-inlaid pearl beads, but there was no need to apply grease and powder at a young age, but he wiped his hands and face with balm, and it was done.
The color that is not outstanding is worn on the villain's body, but it is more and more quiet like water, Dong's mother nodded with satisfaction, the girl is really sensible, such a quiet appearance should be a model of a woman in the family. While bowing her head in her heart, Dong's mother set up a meal on the side, two vegetarian buns, a plate of jade dumplings, a bowl of millet porridge, a plate of crispy and spicy radish, two vegetarian fried seasonal vegetables, and Yishi breakfast was all according to the taste of Lanxi.
"Girl, hurry up and use it, I don't know how hungry I will be when I will worship my ancestors later, if you don't pad it, won't you suffer?"
Lanfu is still in filial piety, and this Double Ninth Festival does not need to travel to enjoy the autumn, climb high and overlook, but this ancestor worship is inevitable. Qingyang Lan has been inherited for hundreds of years, the real bell ringing Ding food, etiquette heirloom, big rules, female dependents can not enter the ancestral hall, but they have to wait outside the ancestral hall even more sadly, no noise, no loss of etiquette, that is the real sin. Fortunately, in her previous life, Lan Xi was the daughter-in-law of the royal family, and she had participated in more stringent sacrifices than this, but now she doesn't care too much, but like Lan Qin, from the outside to the inside, the real little baby is full of drums.
Lan Xi had breakfast in Xian Ya Yuan, and when she went to the main courtyard of Ning Yuanju with Lan Xiang, the third wife was already dressed, and she was hugging Lan Qin, who looked panicked, in her arms and coaxing, looked at the two sisters, and asked about breakfast with a smile. Lan Qin poked his eyes out of the arms of the third wife, and as soon as his eyes met Lan Xi, he was shocked and frightened, turned his head, and directly buried his face deep in the arms of the third wife, refusing to get up again.
Lan Xihu frowned slightly, suspiciously.
"Ah Jiu was nightmarish at night, and he didn't sleep well, so I'm still scared at this time." The third wife explained dryly, but she still called the nurse to pick up Lan Qin, such a day, even the third wife who is sick on weekdays must not be absent, let alone Lan Qin? For a while, the mother and daughter packed up and took a small sedan chair to the ancestral hall.
Sure enough, this stop outside the ancestral hall was more than an hour. Fortunately, the weather is good, Lanxi squinted in the light of the sun, and looked at a few pots of autumn chrysanthemums that were blooming under the eaves, the ancestral hall was solemn, and there was no bright color, one color of jade white, but the first two pots were jade feather tubes and Yaotai jade phoenixes, and they wanted to be taken care of very well by the people in the flower room, and the flowers bloomed very beautifully this year. Lan Xi thought in a trance, this pot of Yaotai jade phoenix was sent by her uncle the year after her mother got married, but in her previous life, after her mother died, she died inexplicably, and they all said that the grass and trees were ruthless, but the real ruthless ones were people.
After the sacrifice to the ancestors, several people gathered in the old lady's Songquan Courtyard, ate Chongyang cakes, and dispersed first. After all, it is still in the filial piety period, and the rules that should be observed must be kept. The old lady also enjoyed a jar of chrysanthemum wine in each room at the right time, which was considered to be in response to the solar terms.
When it came to dinner, it was placed in the main courtyard of Ning Yuanju, and the people in the three rooms gathered together, and the wives and concubines, fathers and sons, and concubines in a room had their own thoughts, but they also put on a harmonious and friendly appearance, and Lanxi was tired for them.
Fortunately, the third master seems to be not so interested in the drama of this cousin's wife and concubine, sisterhood, brotherhood, brother and brother, and he is not interested in playing a role. After finishing the meal, he called a group of children to go to the outer study.
As soon as the third master left, the third wife was also impatient to look at these aunts and hated each other, and said that she was tired and ordered to evict the guests. Those who can occupy one acre and three points of land in this inner house, no matter how stupid they are, are limited, and the words are so clear, they naturally have their own interests, and they go back to their own rooms, which are not obstructive to people's eyes, but also happy to be at ease.
Ning Yuanju, who was still lively just now, quieted down in the main courtyard for a moment, and there was a sense of desolation after the noise.
Lan Xi walked out of the weeping flower gate with the third master, and stretched out his hand to Lan Qin, who hadn't opened his mouth much all day today, and said with a smile, "Ah Jiu, let's go together!" ”
Who knows, Lan Qin seemed to be frightened, his little face turned white, he glanced at her in horror, turned his head, and fell into the arms of the maid next to him, and shouted in a muffled voice, "I'm not going!" ”
Lan Xi frowned, and the maid looked at Lan Xi with an embarrassed expression, "Fifth girl, the ninth girl may be tired, she is weak, the third old man also said it, the ninth girl can not go over, you see...... Why don't you take the nine girls back to rest first? ”
Lan Xi's face was not very good-looking, and she nodded with a wistful expression, and the maid breathed a sigh of relief as if she was relieved, and hurriedly hugged Lan Qin and walked back. Lan Xi looked at her back, her eyes darkened a little, why was she again?
There are not many children in the third room, and the concubines together are only six, among which Lan Qin did not come, and the rest of Lan Hao, Lan Xun, and Lan Xi are all from the third wife, a mother, the fourth master Lan Tao, and the third girl, Lan Xiang, although she is a concubine, she is not a person like Lan Yun who provokes trouble. The third master routinely tested his homework, admonished each other, and waved them down.
Turning out the floor cover, I just saw Song Ming and a maid coming in with a tray, with some tea cups, cloth towels and the like on the plate, thinking that they were going to serve the third master to freshen up. Song Ming and the maid greeted their brothers and sisters, and then rushed in. The moment the maid and Lan Xi staggered by, Lan Xi only felt a strange fragrance passing through his nose, Lan Xi was slightly stunned, and when he smelled it carefully, he only smelled the light and soft smell of the chrysanthemum wine they had used earlier, and now after some time, it emanated from the hair and skin, with a slightly intoxicating drunkenness. Looking at the figure that turned into the floor cover, the elegant mountain wiping slightly cloudy color, Lan Xi lost his mind.
"Girl?" At this time, there was a flowing smoke beside Lan Xi, who looked at his own girl standing aside in a daze, and hurriedly whispered.
Lan Xi came back to his senses, but remembered something else, his eyes darkened, "Find someone to keep an eye on the one named Liu Wu next to the ninth girl." "Some time ago, the relationship between her and Lan Qin has obviously eased a lot, Lan Qin is no longer as afraid of her as before, and she is far away, but today it is ...... She is young and has not yet learned how to hide her emotions, if this change has nothing to do with the people around her, Lan Xi really doesn't believe it.
A chill drilled into the neck socket, Lan Xi tightened his collar, raised his head, and saw that most of the leaves of the plane tree outside Wuxuan had withered and yellowed, and there were a few pieces like butterflies with broken wings falling from the branches, fluttering down to the bottom of the steps, the wind, rising at first, rolling the fallen leaves, whistling.
