Chapter Seventy-Two: Provocation

Although the garden of the long house is less refined than that of the four rooms, it is more atmospheric.

In the middle of the garden is a big lake, planted with a pond full of lotus, and now is the season when the lotus blooms, a look at the past, it is really the lotus leaves are infinitely green, and the lotus flowers are different red in the sun.

The lake is surrounded by four small gardens, each of which is filled with seasonal flowers, so that the garden of the Nagabo is full of flowers throughout the year.

Nowadays, the best scenery is naturally the summer garden, where orchids, jasmine, hibiscus, etc., compete to bloom and overflow with the fragrance of flowers.

In the northwest, it takes a lot of effort to raise so many flowers. Looking at the northwest, there is such a scene in the Beihou Mansion alone.

Hui Yu and Dou found a shady pavilion, arranged the various paints, and prepared to start painting.

Hui Yu asked Caiyun to set up a tripod, pinned the paper to the shelf, and moved a chair to sit in front of the paper.

Dou Shi felt very fresh, and said: "It's really the first time I've seen the third sister put the painting paper like this. ”

Hui Yu said in her heart: Of course you haven't seen it, this is the Western way of painting, I don't know how long it will be here. So he said: "I also happened to see a picture of this kind of painting in a lone book, and I imitated it, and I thought it was more convenient than spreading it on the table, so I also stood up and painted." ”

Dou was very interested and said, "I don't know which one the third sister is talking about?" Can you lend me a look? ”

Hui Yu hurriedly said: "I can't remember exactly, I saw it in my mother's study, and now it should be sealed in the four-room warehouse." Turn it out another day and lend it to my sister-in-law. ”

Dou said: "I have long heard that the fourth aunt has a lot of treasures, and it really deserves its reputation. It would be nice if I could learn painting skills with my third sister as soon as possible, and I could learn more things, so that I wouldn't be so lonely and unheard of. ”

Hui Yu is embarrassed, if you had already learned from the original owner, you wouldn't know this...... He said: "I also think it would be good if we communicated earlier, and my sister-in-law also has a lot to learn from Hui'er, and these days are really beneficial." ”

Hui Yu and Dou are chatting and painting, stopping from time to time to drink some tea, eat some snacks, and enjoy the scenery, which is also very comfortable.

"I heard laughter from afar, and I said who it was, it turned out to be the eldest sister-in-law and the third sister." Danyu's voice rang out.

Hui Yu looked back and saw Dan Yu shaking a fan in her hand, followed by a maid, and Nana walked over.

Dou said: "The second sister is also here, the third sister and I are invited to paint a landscape painting in the garden, why don't the second sister also come to paint a picture?" ”

Dan Yu said with a smile: "One of you was originally a famous Danqing master in the northwest, and the other took the top three in painting in the exam last month, I don't dare to get an axe in front of you." ”

Since Dan Yu said that she didn't want to paint, and sat down to drink tea, Hui Yu and Dou were embarrassed to leave her and paint alone, so they stopped the pen in their hands and sat around the table.

Danyu said again: "Am I bothering you to paint?" Or I'll go somewhere else. ”

Dou Shi hurriedly held her down and said, "It's okay, we have been painting for a while, and it's time to rest, just chat with the second sister." ”

Danyu said: "That's good, otherwise it will disturb your Yaxing." Then he asked, "Is my sister-in-law in good health?" Is the little nephew in the belly well-behaved? ”

Dou stroked his stomach and said, "It's been good for a few days of recuperation, thank you for your concern." This child is quiet, and he doesn't make much noise in this month, and the doctor says that he is a good baby who is considerate of his mother. Aunt Yang is not a young month, right? Are you okay now? ”

Since Aunt Yang was confined, few people have mentioned her anymore, even Dan Yu is not allowed to see her, suddenly Dou asked, Dan Yu really didn't know how to answer, so she had to say: "I haven't been able to see my aunt for a long time, and now I should have a six-month body......

Dou Shi saw that Danyu's face darkened, afraid of arousing her sadness, and said: "In a few months, the second sister will soon have more siblings, aren't you happy?" ”

Hui Yu was a little speechless, the last thing she wanted Aunt Yang to have a son was Chang's, Dou's daughter-in-law, although it was unintentional, but if someone with a heart passed on a word, wouldn't it add to the contradiction......

Hui Yu said: "It would be great if you had a beautiful little sister like the second sister." ”

The corners of Danyu's mouth curled, and she said: "It is insignificant for the Chu family that my aunt gives birth to a boy or a girl, but the child in the sister-in-law's belly is in the spotlight." I heard that the eldest brother has a head and tail with a play, and he is secretly married, and now he is raising it in his mother's yard, I don't know if it's true or not? ”

Isn't that knowingly asking? The matter of Chunju has already made a fuss in the long room, can Danyu not know? This is deliberately saying disgusting Dou's, right?

Hui Yu was afraid that the Dou family would go to her heart again, so she said: "That actor didn't keep his duty, and he should have been severely punished." It's just that the blood and blood of the eldest brother stayed. The eldest aunt had a lot of opportunities, and she didn't have time to discipline her subordinates, so the rumors spread. The second sister, as the master, shouldn't follow those subordinates to speculate wildly. ”

Dan Yu snorted and said, "The third sister has been running our house more and more diligently recently, and now she even knows the housework in our house well...... I don't know, I think the third sister is the master of the long house. ”

Hui Yu didn't back down, and said: "Which master doesn't understand these truths, and any family that has such a thing will be dealt with strictly, so as not to ruin the reputation of a mansion." Or does the second sister feel that the reputation of the long house has nothing to do with her? ”

This hat is strictly buttoned down, and no one dares to recognize it.

Danyu said: "I just don't know, so I asked a few words, why is the third sister so exaggerated?" I'm a girl in the long house, how can I not care about the face of the long house? The third sister is really joking. ”

Seeing that the sisters were quarrelling, Dou, as the eldest sister-in-law, couldn't help but say something, so she said: "The matter of Chunju has its own mother to uphold justice, and our compliance as juniors is that it is extremely inappropriate to criticize behind this." ”

Both Danyu and Hui Yu stopped talking.

Seeing that Dan Yu didn't seem to want to leave, Dou and Hui Yu didn't want to talk to Dan Yu anymore, so they shirked Dou Shi to go back to rest, and left with painting paper and paint.

When Dou and Huiyu walked away, Danyu said, "Come out." ”

I saw Caixia come out from behind the grass behind the pavilion.

Danyu said: "I have said everything that should be said, don't forget about me." ”

Caixia said respectfully: "The girl's affairs must go all out." ”

This day is the traditional Hundred Flowers Festival in the northwest, and the female relatives of the family will make snacks such as baba to worship the Hundred Flowers Niangniang, hoping that the mother will bless the girls who are not out of the cabinet at home as beautiful as flowers.

The Chu family is young, and every Hundred Flowers Festival is celebrated together, and a head of the house presides over it every year. This year, it's the turn of the second room.

Early in the morning, Huiyu got up to freshen up. The Hundred Flowers Festival, as the name suggests, is mainly based on flowers, not only to carry flowers on the headdress, but also to show off the clothes. Hui Yu is in the filial piety period, so she should not be too ostentatious, so she only pinned a circle of pink silk flowers to her hair bun, and wore a long skirt decorated with broken pink flowers on a white background, which can be regarded as a suitable situation.

When they arrived at the garden, Danyu and Duoyu had already arrived. Danyu wore a hundred flowers and broken gold, pinned a peony, wore a long-sleeved cardigan with a turmeric background peony bloom, and a pleated skirt of the same suit. Duo Yu wore a long skirt with a bright green lotus pattern, and two lotus-shaped hairpins were pinned to her head. Even Xingyu wore a big red floral shirt and skirt. For a while, I only felt that people were more delicate than flowers, and they were full of beauty.

Hui Yu sat down next to Duo Yu and asked, "Am I late?" ”

Duo Yu said softly: "It's okay, I'll have to wait for the eldest aunt and aunt to come out with the baba before the ceremony can begin." Now it's just waiting. ”

Baba is to be brought out by the woman who has given birth in the family to worship the Hundred Flowers Niangniang.

After a while, Chang's, Liao's, and Zhou's came out with pots and baba one after another, and Dou's did not participate in the Hundred Flowers Festival because he was pregnant.

The idol of Baihua Niangniang is a human figure made of various flowers, standing on an offering table, Chang Shi and others in turn to offer Baba Er in front of the statue, Dan Yu and others got up on the podium and kowtowed to the idol three times.

In the end, Chang and the others removed the flowers from the statue, put them in four small baskets, and covered them with a piece of red cloth. After the four baskets that were completely covered with red cloth were taken out and placed on the offering table, Danyu took the lead and chose a basket in order from the largest to the smallest.

After choosing, everyone lifted the red cloth.

Inside the basket selected by Hui Yu was a cluster of jasmine, and a note was placed in it, which read: "Although there is no glamorous appearance, fortunately, there is a fragrance to press Jiuqiu." ”

Duo Yu came over and saw the jasmine and poems in the basket of Hui Yu, and said with a smile: "The third sister and this jasmine are quite compatible. ”

Hui Yu looked at the lotus flower in the yoga basket, and said with a smile: "The fourth sister expected that she would smoke the lotus flower today, and she was dressed so well." In the future, I will call the fourth sister the lotus fairy. ”

Duo Yu snorted and said, "My sister will laugh at me." ”
