Duanyang Festival, the weather is hot, the five poisons wake up, and it is restless.

In order to prevent the five poisons, every household will pick mugwort leaves, insert them in the lintel, hang them in the middle hall, and will also pick mugwort leaves to wash them, and cook them together in eggs, duck eggs, goose eggs, and garlic to eat.

On this day, Zhang's not only boiled all kinds of salted eggs, but also wrapped zongzi, made five poison cakes, and cooked fragrant longevity noodles.

Everyone has just had breakfast, and girls have come to give gifts to the little birthday star at home.

The eldest uncle's family Hongxia sent two pairs of embroidered shoes, the third uncle's family Hongyun sent two square handkerchiefs, and the second uncle's family Hongying is only five years old this year and has not yet learned needlework, so she sent some gardenias to Wang Jing.

Wang Jing accepted it with a smile, and each of them gave a bag of her homemade spices, and invited them to drink tea and play at home.

After a while, Zhang's mother's side also came, because it was just in time for May and June when the farmers were busy, the adults did not come, only the nephew Zhang Chunsheng came with Sister Qing and Sister Dan, and the rulers sent by the two aunts, Wang Jing first asked the elders how they were doing, and then thanked them.

The two cousins didn't have a separate gift for Wang Jing, and she didn't pay much attention to it, anyway, this kind of thing, the gifts were still exchanged, and they didn't give it, which saved her the trouble of returning the gift.

Ji Yun came over and gave two pairs of embroidered shoes, but the man didn't enter the house, so he stood in the courtyard and took out the things.

Ji Yun is also a skillful girl, the stitches of the embroidered shoes are fine and dense, and the flowers on them are vividly embroidered, "If the things are given to my sister, I have to go back, your Aunt Qin and they are so busy that their feet don't touch the ground, although I can't help a lot, there is no problem in cooking, boiling saliva and drinking." ”

Wang Jing knew that she wanted to avoid the red clouds, but she didn't break it, and only smiled, "My grandmother's cousin is also here." ”

The Qin family's maiden family is very close to the Zhang family, and they are also very familiar with the two sisters, Sister Dan and Sister Qing'er, so they have to go over to say hello.

Sister Dan and Sister Qing saw Ji Yun and affectionately pulled her to ask long and short questions. Ji Yun chattered with them, but he thought, I don't know what the red cloud is doing, but he is not in this room.

Sister Zhongdan also solved her doubts, only to hear her ask Hongxia: "I just saw a group of people carrying things here, and I seem to see that I went to my second cousin's house." ”

"Yes, the Li family is here to propose marriage to Hongyun today." Hongxia said.

"Carried a lot of things, could it be Li Ji's one?" Sister Dan asked.

"Exactly."

"I heard that the son of the Li family said a lot of family affairs, but it didn't work out." Sister Qing said.

Everyone unanimously thought that the Li family was so rich, I was afraid that Li Gongzi's vision was too high and he couldn't look down on other girls, but he proposed to Hongyun, it can be seen that this girl must be extraordinary, and thinking about people like the Zhou family, they may not be proud in the future, and no one will say anything.

was cold, but saw Liu Yongan come in. He came in in a dark robe, but he came in with a wreath of pomegranate flowers, gardenias, calamus, mugwort leaves, and many kinds of wild flowers.

Although the flowers on the wreath are all common, they are cleverly braided, and they are very delicately braided, with pomegranate flowers like fire, gardenias snow-white, mugwort leaves verdant, and clusters of unknown wildflowers, which actually give people an unusually gorgeous feeling.

For a moment, the eyes of the little girls were all fixed on the wreath.

Sister Dan and Sister Qing both said: "What a beautiful garland, so fragrant!" ”

Wang Jing pursed her lips and smiled: "Brother, your clothes are stained with a lot of mud, and your shoes are wet with dew, so don't you hurry up and change them!" ”

Liu Yongan scratched her nose affectionately, "I'm not doing this for you!" I had to run for miles and climb two mountains to get this garland whole. Look, how pretty! As he spoke, he brought the flower to Wang Jing's neck.

Wang Jing said with a smile: "Pomegranate flowers and gardenias are in our yard, mugwort leaves and calamus are everywhere, just these wild flowers, there are many on the edge of the paddy field, why did you turn over two mountains?" My brother is coaxing me again! ”

Liu Yongan was exposed by her, but he was not annoyed, but smiled: "Who made you such a little girl!" ”

The brother and sister laughed and laughed, but the others were fine, but Sister Dan was not happy!

She is old, and she is often mentioned by Shen's ear, and she can't see Liu Yongan being good to Wang Jing, so she can't help but raise her eyebrows, stomp her feet and say, "Cousin, you are too much!" We've come so far and wide, and you don't pay attention to us, and we don't have our share in weaving garlands! ”

Liu Yongan said: "You guys come here, it's not for Sister Jing'er's birthday?" You all have gifts, you can't let me go empty-handed, can you? ”

Sister Dan said in her heart, let's celebrate her fart's birth! We just came to see Mr. Qiao in the name of celebrating his birthday, but he couldn't say it clearly, so he asked him to stop it.

When Sister Qing saw it, she said half-jokingly and half-seriously, "Sister Dan'er has been born, why didn't I see you send something?" ”

Liu Yongan spread his hands, "Didn't my mother send it for me?" I don't have any money, and you can't afford to be cheap. ”

When Sister Dan heard this, she only felt aggrieved, and kept staring at the garland around Wang Jing's neck, "How can I say that I am also a guest from afar, what happened to my cousin giving me a garland?" ”

Liu Yongan said: "It's so hot, the sun is poisonous, my cousin should have said it earlier if she wanted a garland, how do you know if you don't say it?" ”

Hear this! Just a wreath for yourself, give it to a wild girl and don't give it to me, and bring out so many reasons!

The more Sister Qing thought about it, the more angry she became, and she felt that there were so many little girls looking at her, she was very faceless, and her blushing face was almost dripping blood.

Wang Jing took the garland off her neck very generously, "Cousin likes this garland so much, I'll give it to you." ”

It's just a child's thing. The straw stuff wilted after a while if it didn't take long, so why provoke the little girl's snot and tears, she really felt that she couldn't do it.

Liu Yongan didn't give Sister Qing face, "Look at how generous my sister is, how similar she is to some people." ”

When he said this, Sister Qing was embarrassed to take it again, she glared at Wang Jing fiercely, "If you want to give it to me, why did you go earlier?" ”

Wang Jing was not angry, and put it around her neck again, "This is a birthday gift from my brother, how can I not wear it and give it away?" This hurts my brother's heart a lot. ”

Sister Qing was about to get annoyed, but she saw Zhang in the courtyard and said, "Sister Jing, your cousin of the Qiao family is here." ”
