Seeing that the day is approaching, the atmosphere of the Lu family is gradually becoming hot. When the girls see it on weekdays, they don't talk about clothes, or jewelry, even if the embroidered shoes are hidden in the skirt, they have to pay attention to it.

Lu Yunzhi brought Xia Xiaodong a set of red gold sapphire heads, saying that it matched the color of the clothes she chose. Needless to say, things are brand new, exquisite, and the style itself is also the latest.

It's a pity that Xia Xiaodong is really not interested in having a golden head at all, so he sent it back in person.

A big box of heads, it's too heavy to hold in your hand, and the plug can't get along with your own neck.

Of course, Lu Yunzhi refused to take it back, and the final compromise was that Xia Xiaodong picked two more pieces in Lu Yunzhi's collection.

On the day of the garden, the Lu family is the main family, and the girls must arrive in advance to help greet the guests. Although Xia Xiaodong was a guest, he still set off with the convoy before dawn.

When I got off the bus, the sky was already bright, and I saw that the gate of the Tired Siyuan was quite distinctive, obviously it was customary to receive relatives and friends, and there were two corridors on the left and right of men and women, and the future was diverted.

Xia Xiaodong naturally walked to the right, and saw a group of daughters-in-law standing in decent clothes, all brushing and saying hello. A daughter-in-law led Xia Xiaodong and the two maids who followed him in.

Take a few steps, face a wall, whitewashed, but in the middle is a very delicate painting, the water is sparkling and the green trees are verdant, a good rich garden scene.

The daughter-in-law stopped in front of the painting and pointed out the picture. It turned out that what was painted on the wall was a panorama of the Garden of Tired Thoughts.

"Here we are." The daughter-in-law pointed to a place under the picture, scratched her fingers, and said with a smile: "Follow the path of Xunfang." To the east is Moon Lake, and now that the time for lotus viewing has passed, it is feasible to go boating and fishing. Passing through the bamboo forest in the west, there is the chrysanthemum garden, and whether it is fighting poetry and wine, it is there. ”

"Further south, there's a big clearing. Last year, the sixth master let people plant dog tooth grass. It's dense and thick, and it's comfortable to walk on. ”

Saying that, the daughter-in-law smiled and said, "This year's strong woman wrestling is done in that place." If the girl is interested. It was over after lunch. ”

"By the way, lunch is set up in Zhanyun Pavilion, on the north side of the koi pond. Serve at noon. The girl had better not be late. This year, the old lady was in good spirits, and there was a colorful show after lunch. ”

Xia Xiaodong was confused. For road idiots, the southeast and northwest are not more clear than Zhenli Dukan (these words are the directions in the gossip), but fortunately, the daughter-in-law said for a long time, and actually took a rubbing of the garden map from under the wall. Handed it over.

It turns out that there is also a minimap, so it is much better.

Qiu Juan smiled and reached out to pick it up and help Xia Xiaodong put it away. stuffed a pre-prepared reward envelope, and said with a smile: "I'm tired of my sister-in-law." Miss Xia is here with us, sister-in-law hurry back to get busy. ”

The daughter-in-law was overjoyed, so she hurriedly squatted down and blessed herself, said a lot of auspicious words, and thanked herself.

"What is she happy about?" Xia Xiaodong is a little strange. Although the reward seal he prepared was by no means shabby, the daughter-in-law didn't open it to see, did she need to be so attentive.

"Did the girl see her dark green belt?" The maid Chunguang who came with her this time was suppressed by Qiu Juan, and at this time she found an opportunity and hurried to answer.

Xia Xiaodong nodded.5./books/19/19488/

The Demon King's favorite concubine. The daughter-in-law who welcomed the guests wore the same belt around her waist, about two inches wide, flat and neat, and looked very neat.

Listen to the meaning of spring, what else is there?

"That belt is also called the Ingot Belt." Chunguang said with a smile: "On a good day like today, when a daughter-in-law wins a reward, she must pin her head behind her belt and show the red edge of the reward." Whoever gets the most rewards can be known at a glance. When the errand is finished in the evening, the daughters-in-law will compare who gets the most rewards, and the first one can go to the sister-in-law of Jun to receive a ten taels of ingots. ”

This handsome sister-in-law really has a set, isn't it quite inspiring?

"Just count your broken mouths," Qiu Juan saw that Chunguang Balabala said a lot, and she didn't feel a little surprised, and then said: "If it's still early today, most of the people who come at this hour are ordinary visitors, and sometimes they don't know the rules, and they don't even have a reward." ”

"Now that the daughter-in-law of the people has not only been rewarded, we don't need her to take it in, and we have saved effort, so we are naturally happy."

Xia Xiaodong thought about it, and it was really the truth.

There is a lot of knowledge in being a guest. If nothing else, the time of arrival is very particular.

The more status, the more self-contained, holding the shelf and posing the score, it is long overdue to look noble, isn't it? Those who came early were either flattered by the invitation; Either they are acquaintances and know that the owner's house will be busy when they turn back, so they deliberately come over in advance to avoid making trouble.

After all, Xia Xiaodong is a special case.

……

……

Taking advantage of the early arrival and few people, Xia Xiaodong took Qiujuan and Chunguang two and wandered around. This tired garden is worthy of being rewarded by the emperor, and a few people have walked for a long time, but they don't seem to be able to walk for a small half.

After resting for a while in the Yiyun Pavilion on the side of the mountain, Qiu Juan said: "Girl, it's better to go south, with our footsteps, stay in Zhanyun Pavilion, and it's probably about the time for lunch." ”

Chunguang hurriedly helped: "There is a nine-curved corridor on the edge of the Moon Lake, and if you walk down the corridor, you can see the waterscape again, and it is cool and not sunburning." ”

Along the way, I also met a few ladies on the way, and everyone didn't know each other very well, so they just nodded.

Xia Xiaodong looked up at the sky, and the autumn air was very good.

How...... It seems that there are not a lot of people?

Just as he was so confused, he suddenly heard a 'poof' sound not far behind him, as if there was the sound of something heavy falling into the water.

Looking back, the person who floated and sank in the water was a person.

Someone fell overboard.

With such a beautiful scenery, of course, there must be a drama of falling into the water to add some fun.

Qiujuan and Chunguang both rushed to think about it, and after walking a few steps, they found that the girl who served them had fallen behind, and quickly retreated.

"Girl...... why don't you go over and have a look?" Qiu Juan was deeply ashamed of her behavior of leaving the girl to watch the excitement, and asked without words.

Miss Xia's feet were nailed to the ground, she didn't move a step, and even her body just turned sideways, not completely turned, obviously not planning to pass.

"What's so nice about this." Xia Xiaodong shook his head. In an artificial lake like Moon Lake, where lotus flowers are grown, the water near the shore is usually not very deep - and it is easy to dig lotus roots, if it is too deep, do you have to dive to dig it? But in the middle of the lake, for boating and fish farming, it is indeed very deep.

Since being pulled by Zhang Wenjuan last time, Xia Xiaodong has taken a respectful attitude towards the excitement.

Curiosity killed the cat. (To be continued.) )
