Chapter 24: Cruises

The Bianhe River runs from east to west, and willows are planted along the river. The beginning of spring has passed a year ago, and the weather is getting warmer day by day. I think that next month, the willows on both sides of the river will also be dyed green.

The boat gradually moved on the water, pushing away the waves in circles. Out of the West Gate Bridge, not far away, you can see Jinliang Bridge, Taishifu Bridge. Not only the willow trees along the coast, but also the bridge are also full of lanterns, just like the Hongqiao lying waves. Pedestrians on the bridge are weaving, smiling and smiling.

The shops and restaurants along the shore have set up mountain sheds and are full of all kinds of lights. Brighten up the night as if it were day.

In the past, the ladies who didn't go out much looked at the scenery on both sides of the strait with straight eyes. Rong Di couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "It's so beautiful! ”

Rong Yun didn't talk much to the sisters, went to the stern of the boat by himself, leaned on the beauty, and looked at the night scene in a daze. Rong Zheng quietly stepped forward and sat next to Rong Yun.

"Eldest sister, what do you want?"

Rong Yun was a little stubborn: "I look at the scenery, but I'm afraid that I will never see such a scenery again in this life." ”

Rong Zheng felt pitiful for this eldest sister, and whispered to her: "Eldest sister, although what I said to you that day was a little disobedient and inappropriate. But sincerely. If the eldest sister has any thoughts in the future, remember to write to me. We sisters think about it together. ”

Rong Yun looked at Rong Zheng worriedly, although Rong Zheng's facial features have not yet been opened, they are already delicate enough. She frowned slightly, but she was calm. Rong Yun felt that Rong Zheng treated her seriously, she took Rong Zheng's hand and said, "Third sister, what can you do." It is said that this is fate, and it is not up to anyone at all. ”

Rong Zheng smiled and said: "Didn't you say that it is up to heaven to make things happen, and people to make things." Where did you jump into it knowing that it was a fire pit? Don't worry, I'll help you figure it out. ”

The two of them said, and Rong Di came over. Rong Yun hurriedly stopped the topic.

Rong Di stepped forward and smiled: "What do you two say, I'll listen to it too." ”

Rong Zheng saw that Mu Baowen was alone at the moment, and thought that he was just going to find her to inquire, leaving Rong Yun and Rong Di behind, and said apologetically: "The two sisters look slowly." Something to eat, someone will bring it to you. ”

Rong Yun's eyes followed Rong Zheng away, and his expression was inexplicable.

Rong Di sat down next to Rong Yun and muttered, "Sister, you are a little strange. ”

"What's so strange about me?" Rong Yun is colorful.

"It's not just you, it's the third sister who is also weird."

Those private words, Rong Yun was reluctant to tell her sister.

Rong Di suddenly heard the sound of a bamboo flute coming from nowhere, and couldn't help but listen carefully, the sound of the flute was getting closer and closer. Rong Di smiled: "Sister, it sounds so good." ”

Rong Yun nodded and said, "This song is called "Plum Blossom Falling". She looked at the willows on the shore with her eyes like water, and said slowly: "There are many trees in the atrium, and it is more like a plum." Q: Why is it alone? Thinking that it can be a flower in the frost, and it can be a solid in the dew. Shaking the spring breeze and the spring day, Nian Er scattered and chasing the wind, there is no frost and no frost. ”

Rong Zheng walked to Mu Baowen, and saw a maid standing next to Mu Baowen, who was holding an azure porcelain plate in her hand, and the plate was filled with preserved plums.

Rong Zheng took the plate from the maid's hand, sat down in front of Mu Baowen, and gossiped with her.

"It turns out that the third lady likes to eat Yuemei."

Mu Baowen smiled: "I like to eat this sweet and sour thing." She saw Rong Zheng holding the plate, hurriedly took the plate from Rong Zheng's hand, put it on the beauty, and said, "Where can I use you to serve me?" ”

Rong Zheng talked to Mu Baowen.

Mu Baowen said: "If the Lantern Festival in previous years was spent in Beijing, but this year, the mother concubine was not in good health, and my father did not let the mother concubine follow him into Beijing to congratulate him, so we stayed." In fact, the Festival of Lights in the palace is not as interesting as today. ”

Rong Zheng smiled: "No matter what, being with your family is the greatest happiness." ”

Mu Baowen nodded and said, "It's the same." She glanced at the Rong Yun sisters sitting at the stern of the boat, and whispered to Rong Zheng: "Your eldest sister wants to enter the palace to be selected?" ”

Rong Zheng said: "It's the meaning of the eldest uncle and the eldest aunt." ”

Mu Baowen smiled and said, "Your eldest sister is both talented and beautiful, which is really rare." It's just that there are not a few talented and good-looking people in the palace, so it's not so rare. ”

Before, Rong Zheng was still thinking about how to mention this matter to Mu Baowen, but Mu Baowen took the initiative to talk about it, so he followed her words and said: "The eldest uncle and aunt must have their thoughts." By the way, two days ago, the princess sent a companion to our house to deliver lights. I also boasted that my eldest sister was here. What is Niangniang's idea, do you want to be a matchmaker for my eldest sister? Rong Zheng asked tentatively.

Mu Baowen grabbed two dried plums from the plate, one was stuffed into Rong Zheng's mouth, and the other was eaten by herself, but she didn't say a word. Rong Zheng didn't have a clue, thinking that they all guessed wrong?

Mu Baowen listened to the sound of the flute not far away, and it came through the water waves, which was even more melodious, and looked at it by the railing: "I don't know which boat it came from, this flute is playing really well." ”

Rong Zheng also echoed: "It's a good blow." Originally, I also planned to invite two women who knew silk and bamboo to come up and have fun. But after all, my grandmother's clothes are not yet full, and they are not good. ”

Mu Baowen said with a smile: "Our family has raised servants, pipa players, and flute players. My second brother likes the one who plays the lute in it. I heard that I used to be in the palace, and my second brother asked for it. ”

Rong Zheng knew that the second brother in Mu Baowen's mouth was the son of Yu Wangfu and the heir of Yu Wangfu in the future.

"I didn't expect the prince to have such a good leisure."

Mu Baowen said with a smile: "My second brother likes to be lively, listen to music, watch plays, and love everything, and our father is really father and son." ”

Rong Zheng really wanted to continue the topic with Mu Baowen just now, but she never thought that Mu Baowen would talk about things in the palace, but she was not interested in those in the palace.

"We have three older brothers in our family, and the eldest brother grew up in the temple and doesn't see each other a few times a year. He doesn't like to be close to us. The second brother is the son of the world and likes to be lively and prosperous. No one in the family dared to care about him. There is also a third brother, who you saw in Daxiangguo Temple that day. He was easy-going and kind, and he was close to my sisters. Of the three older brothers, I like him the most. He loves to read, calligraphy and painting, and makes friends. People are righteous and righteous. Not to mention, my eldest brother is such a lonely person, my third brother can actually say a few words to my eldest brother, this is really amazing. ”

Rong Zheng listened to Mu Baowen and talked eloquently. But I was faintly anxious in my heart. She wanted to find out what the princess was thinking, but Mu Baowen looked at it and said something else.

I don't know which house is setting off fireworks.

Suddenly, I heard a loud sound, and a little spark flew into the night sky, and there was a loud bang, and a yellow firework bloomed in the night sky. Immediately after that, several fireworks burst into flames, red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple, gorgeous and dazzling.

The fire was all over the sky, reflecting Mu Baowen's eyes as bright as stars.
