Although you can't go out, you can still order someone to put some lanterns on the lake, and the flower boat will go up the moat for a week, which is why Yumanlou is so popular, Yumanlou is just near the river and the opposite side is just to build a smooth stone step, starting from the roadside on the river bank to the bottom of a total of ten steps, at this time the river is not very full, ten steps are exposed to nine steps, there are already many people by the river to put lanterns by the river.

After a while, I heard someone say that the flower boat is coming!

Cheng Yiyao also followed to the position near the window, and several older ladies couldn't get too close to the window to watch and just watched from afar, but a few small ones were watching from the window side one by one.

These flower boats are all made of silver by each family, the flower boat is all kinds of lanterns, lifelike, can not help but make people dazzled, at this time it is a nearly 100-foot long ship is slowly approaching, a golden dragon on the boat is coming with its head high, several children are stunned to see it, the dragon's head is very mighty, but in the eyes of the children is inevitably a little hideous.

Cui Zhizhen, who was only four years old and was held by the wet nurse, was so frightened that she cried, looking at her daughter's little face full of tears, her little appearance was pitiful, and the fourth aunt stepped forward to hold Cui Zhizhen in her arms and coaxed her, Cheng Yiyao and they gradually lost their minds to look at the lanterns.

At this time, a seventeen or eighteen-looking maid came in and made a blessing to the old lady above, and reported: "Old lady Qiqi, ladies and ladies, the lantern has been prepared!" ”

"Oh? Okay? Come in and let's take a look! Before the old lady could speak, Cui Zhilan couldn't wait to urge the maid to get it.

"Look at your frizzy temper!" Mrs. Yongqinghou scolded her daughter with a smile, but there was not much blame in her tone, and she turned to the old lady and said, "This girl is spoiled by me!" ”

"It's okay, it's hard to come out and put lanterns, and the children are happy!" The old lady didn't mind at this time, smiled and waved her hand to signal the maid to go down and get the lantern.

Cui Zhilan stuck out her tongue at her mother, she was very playful and cute, and ran to pull the old lady's arm and said coquettishly, "It's still grandmother who loves Lan'er the most!" ”

The old lady was also quite happy, and scolded the little sycophant without blaming half a point, and turned to Cui Zhizhen, who was held by the fourth lady, and said: "Later, our sister Zhen will choose first, it's not beautiful to cry, don't cry!" ”。

At this time, several maids have already taken the lanterns in, there are general lantern grinding patterns and various forms of lanterns, on which are painted with various patterns, there are ladies and women and all kinds of flowers, birds, insects and fish.

Cui Zhizhen sobbed and nodded, and was immediately attracted by a number of lanterns, urging her mother to take her over to choose, Cui Zhizhen chose a lantern that looked like a small fish, and the small fish with golden body and red scales was very cute.

Cheng Yiyao sighed slightly in her heart, although she was thick with her grandmother in her last life, her grandmother took pity on her, and she was quite serious about losing the innocence that a child should have, this is what her grandchildren look like, she didn't ask her grandmother for anything before, but her grandmother herself would give it to her, even if she liked something, she wouldn't reveal half a point.

And now, although her body is still the same as when she was a child, she has actually lived for 18 years, and she has never experienced the happiness of childhood.

Cui Zhilan and several young ladies of the Cui family had also run up to look at the various lanterns, choosing what they liked, and the old lady looked at the little granddaughter who was still sitting beside her, and stroked her head with pity: "Let's go and choose one we like!" ”

Cheng Yiyao smiled and nodded: "Or Yao'er will also choose a lantern for her grandmother!" ”

As he spoke, he had already gone to the table, and at this time the little girls had almost finished choosing the lanterns.

Cheng Yiyao was already more than a head taller than the table, but she could only get the lanterns close to the edge of the table, but the ones inside were out of reach, so she stood farther away, circled around the table and said to the child next to her: "Mama, I want those two lanterns painted with Fu Lushou!" ”

Cheng Yiyao is talking about two long box-shaped lanterns on four sides, one on four sides are the opposite sides of the word Fushou, plus one side is painted with cranes and longevity peaches leaving one side blank, the other is the word Fushou unchanged, and the other two sides are painted with a birthday star map and one side is blank.

This blank side is used to write wishes or poems for people, Cheng Yiyao carried the two lanterns to the old lady, and the little man struggled to carry the two lanterns, which looked very funny.

The old lady was busy with the enrichment of Mama Yao: "Hurry up and help Miss Biao continue!" ”

"Grandmother can only choose one!" saw Cheng Yiyao tilt her body and avoid Mama Yao's outstretched hand.

The old lady smiled: "Grandmother doesn't want any of them, they are all given to Yao'er, let Grandma Yao help you hold it, you can't lift it anymore!" ”

Cheng Yiyao insisted on saying: "No, my grandmother has to pick one!" ”

"Okay, then grandmother wants Yao'er's left hand!" The old lady ordered one at random, it was the one with the painting of longevity peach and crane, Cheng Yiyao handed the lantern to Mama Yao when she heard this, and put it on the small table on the side with the lantern.

"Grandmother, what do you want to write on it?" Cheng Yiyao turned the blank side to herself.

"What does Yao'er want to write?" The old lady asked with a smile.

"That one was given to my grandmother, and this one was given to my grandmother." Cheng Yiyao thought about it for a while, but it still didn't seem to be good, so she said, "Why don't grandmothers help Yao'er think about what to write?" ”

"Yao'er still thinks well, don't you want to pray for your grandmother!"

"But Yao'er will only have one, I'm writing here, what about my grandmother!" Cheng Yiyao looked embarrassed, "Otherwise, Yao'er prayed for her grandmother and grandmother together, and the lamp would be given to her grandmother, Yao'er didn't want to!" ”

The old lady looked at Cheng Yiyao and laughed: "You little slacker!" ”

Cheng Yiyao didn't care what the old lady said, took the brush prepared by An Zhu, and wrote neatly on the blank side: "The crane and deer are always in the same spring, the pines and cypresses are evergreen and verdant, the long years follow the flowing water, and the happiness and longevity are all happy." ”

Although the strength of the young hands is not enough, the handwriting is still very neat, and the old lady and the eldest lady both nodded secretly when they looked at it.

"Grandmother, Yao'er has written, you can write it!" As he spoke, he handed the brush in his hand to the old lady.

The old lady was a little stunned for a while, and really asked her to write: "My grandmother is a lot older, so I don't play this anymore, Yao'er will write it herself, and this will be given to Yao'er!" ”

"But my grandmother has to write one for my grandmother!" Cheng Yiyao lowered her head and picked her little hand.

The old lady suddenly suddenly, it turned out that the child was fighting this idea, but then she was relieved, she heard a maid say that she was a duchess discord, although the child said that she didn't believe it, but she was still worried, and wanted to let herself pray for the duchess to be sure that the incident was fake.

Then he sighed, dipped the brush in ink after a little thought, and wrote, "Ten years of dreams of life and death, the shadow gradually becomes rickety, the flowers pass away with the wind, and the silk flowers are also stained." ”

Cheng Yiyao glanced at the old lady suspiciously, what does this mean?

"Okay, let the maids take it and put it!"

Cheng Yiyao originally planned to write a blessing poem to the old lady to put out the lanterns this time, and go back to mention it inadvertently in front of the princess, but at this time, she was a little uncertain, what does the old lady mean by this poem?

What does this "silk flower" mean, does it mean that "youth is gone, we are old, and our relationship will not return to the past", or does it mean that all the previous contradictions have dissipated with the passage of time?

Do you want to tell your grandmother about this? Cheng Yiyao was entangled in her heart, and secretly glanced at the old lady, but she didn't find anything wrong.

After a while, the ladies of each family also returned to the house one after another, and it was a little late, and the group of Guogong Mansion dispersed after returning to the house.

Yuwain Temple-

The little girl lying on the side of Wang's bed was kneeling and gently pinching her legs, and the grandmother on the side waved the girl away, and she stepped forward and whispered: "Madame, why should you embarrass that girl in these small places, and make the old lady unhappy!" ”

Wang knew that the "girl" she said was Cheng Yiyao, and chuckled: "What do you know, I can't make it look like I love her, it's better that the old lady thinks that I can't hide things, so I won't take more precautions, but it's a lot more convenient to do anything!" ”

I heard a maid report outside: "Madame's hot water is ready!" ”
