When the osmanthus is in full bloom, you don't have to look at it, just close your eyes, take a deep breath, and the sweet fragrance will soak your whole body. Mrs. Lin grew up in Jiangnan since she was a child, and after getting married, she lived in Kyoto, and she missed the fragrance of osmanthus in early autumn in Jiangnan.

Because of her, the garden of the forest mansion is full of osmanthus trees, and in August, small flowers of white, yellow or orange are gathered into a cluster hidden among the rich leaves, quietly exuding a sweet fragrance. At this time, the entire Hou Mansion will be filled with a sweet smell.

Mrs. Lin will use osmanthus to make wine, make all kinds of cakes, flower sauce, and even osmanthus candy, and even make up every day, and put a few golden cinnamon hairpins on the sideburns, so that the fragrance overflows the whole body.

Today, Lin Ruhai and his classmates and friends had a small gathering at the Lin family, and what Jia Min gave them was home-brewed osmanthus wine. Sweet and refreshing, and not easy to get drunk, it is really a very haode drink.

Mu Ying drank three glasses in a row, smacked his lips, and squinted at Lin Ruhai and said: "This osmanthus brew is the wine that a woman's family drinks, and a man should eat Yuquan wine." ”

Lin Ruhai smiled with a cup: "It's not that I don't eat with you, it's really Ah Shou, your alcohol consumption is too poor, in case you get drunk, it's ours again, and you will be tired and reprimanded by Lingzun." ”

Mu Ying immediately blushed, snorted twice, and went to pour another glass of wine with hatred, and drank it all.

Mu Lin had already washed up, and changed his body from the inside out, sitting in the banquet at the moment, extremely silent, taking a deep breath from time to time, drinking a glass of wine, most of them were in a daze, not knowing what to think.

Lin Ruhai and the others didn't bother him, and drank and laughed by themselves. Their feast was set up in the water pavilion in the garden, and the ancient trees in the garden covered the sky. And by the water, a light breeze passed through. Feel cool. There are three or five friends, and they drink together. It should be one of life's great joys.

"Ruhai, if you invite us to eat and drink, just sit down, and there is no one to sing." Mu Ying didn't stop for a quarter of an hour, and began to prickly again, "I really failed to live up to such a haode garden." ”

Yang Ze glared at him, "Calling those who sing songs is the one who disturbs the purity of this garden." Then he threatened: "If you talk nonsense again, I will tell my uncle to go." Let him pound you. ”

Mu Ying immediately softened, "Don't, cousin, we are aunts and cousins, if you discount the bones and tendons, you won't feel sorry for me at all." ”

"You feel sorry for your daughter-in-law, and you can't show me."

mentioned his fiancée, Mu Ying rarely felt a little shy, which surprised everyone at the table. Even Mu Lin put down his worries and looked at him with a smile.

Mu Ying was annoyed and ashamed by the onlookers, "Look at it, don't you all have a wife?" Not engaged? ”

Lin Ruhai hurriedly played a round, "Let's not look at him, don't look at him." Come and drink. Drink. ”

Yang Ze said: "Let's also make an order." ”

Lin Ruhai blinked, and the wine orders among the literati seemed to be more elegant. If you can't make it, you have to add words and compose poems, he can't play this. Sure enough, it's more in line with his heart.

"Don't get those grinding teeth, be careful that I turn my face." Mu Ying immediately said, "It's better to draw a fist directly, that one is refreshing." ”

Yang Ze looked at Mu Lin, who looked sluggish, thinking that with his state, he would carry out that complicated order, afraid that he would not be able to react, it would be better to draw a fist, and immediately bowed his head: "Okay." ”

Mu Ying said again: "It's not pleasant to change wine, eat this." ”

Lin Ruhai and Yang Ze made eye contact, thinking that it would be good to let Mu Lin get drunk and relieve a thousand sorrows, so he immediately called the little maid to come and exchange for Yuquan wine.

The little girl who was waiting during the banquet quickly reported to the grandmother that Jia Min thought about it, then nodded and agreed, and asked if the crab could be steamed and sent it with wine. The best way to eat crabs in the capital is to enjoy osmanthus and eat crabs in August every year. Now, the time is right. At noon, several baskets of extremely fat crabs were sent from the village, they came slowly, and Lin Ruhai and they were already seated. Jia Min hurriedly ordered someone to steam it and hurriedly sent it up. He also prepared a lot of hangover relievers, and called a few more servants to serve in the garden.

Lin Yun came over for a while, and smiled when they met: "Xiexie sister-in-law." ”

Jia Min hurriedly got up to greet him, gave up his seat, asked the girl to serve tea, and after the guest and host sat down, he smiled and said, "What is there to thank you." ”

Lin Yun smiled, shook the ivory-handled palace fan in his hand, and said coquettishly: "I came to thank my sister-in-law for the crab sent by Mrs. Dai." ”

Lin Yun wore a light coupling color Luo shirt and a light pink and dark pink intercolored skirt today, combed an anti-snail bun, and only wore a tired silk golden phoenix hairpin between the sideburns, the more quiet and beautiful, she smiled and praised: "My sister is here today, and she is elegant." ”

"It's new this year." Lin Yun was also quite satisfied with his dress today, but he still made a look of not caring, "I never care about these rich and idle makeup, the left and right are just silk, Luo, and so every year." ”

Jia Min raised his eyebrows, and sure enough, it was what the daughter of the Hou Mansion should say. "My daughter's family, I should dress up more while I am young, is it possible to wait until I am seventy or eighty years old to wear red and green, apply grease and powder, that is not a joke."

"Sister-in-law, that's right." Lin Yun seemed to be in a very good mood today, and kept pulling Jia Min to talk, and even when it was time for dinner, he heard that Lin Ruhai had a friend coming, and he had to rely on Jia Min to eat together. also instructed his maid, "Jinshu, you go and tell your wife that I have dinner with my sister-in-law today." ”

Jin Shu blessed his body and went out.

Jia Min had no choice but to instruct her maid to tell the kitchen to add a few more dishes that Lin Yun loved to eat.

"It's still my sister-in-law who loves me." Lin Yun was tired of Jia Min at this time, and she was coquettish by her side.

Jia Min's black line, did her sister-in-law take the wrong medicine today? The cold and noble of the past...... Uh, no, is it calm? Can't you eat? If she is like this, she will ask for something.

Lin Yun thought of the bottles of flower dew sent by Jia Min today, saying that she made it home, and let her eat and play. Do it yourself? Lin Yun remembered that in the Dream of Red Mansions, there was a key flower dew, Gu said that it was a tribute, it was given to Jia Baoyu by Mrs. Wang, and then Jia Baoyu used it to hook up with a girl again, which was Liu Wu'er, who was very similar to Qingwen. opened the small bottle sent by Jia Min again, the fragrance was intoxicating, and Qingshu picked up a spoonful of mixed water. Sure enough, it smells amazing.

It seems that even if it is not as good as the tribute. Jia Min's flower dew is also quite pure. Lin Yun immediately thought that if he could ask how this flower dew was made. The rouge shop that I have newly acquired should be able to have new products. This rouge shop was newly given to her by Mrs. Lin, saying that she should also learn some more. Since Lin Yun got it, he has been thinking about how to improve the product and invent some new products, so that it will not be popular all over the country by then, and at least he can make more money.

The two had dinner. Seeing that Lin Ruhai's banquet was about to end and would be back soon, it was impossible for her to have a long talk with Jia Min here. Seeing that Jia Min didn't ask her, you just stayed if you liked, doing your own thing, and laughing with her from time to time, Lin Yun was a little anxious, bit her red lip, and said, "Sister-in-law." I really like the flower dew you sent today. ”

"If you like it, just send someone to me when you run out, and it's home-made. It's very rough, and it's rare for my sister to be able to see it. Jia Min said with a smile, and said in his heart, you finally said what you meant. It's been grinding all afternoon, and it's really steady enough.

"It's not good to always trouble my sister-in-law. Why don't my sister-in-law tell me how to do it, and I'll ask someone to do it. Lin Yun said with a smile.

Jia Min listened. She was stunned for a moment, with the method she knew about steaming flower dew, many families knew it, and Mrs. Lin should also know why Lin Yun asked about her.

"Heh, it's not difficult to say, as long as you pick the flowers, wash them, and then put them in the retort bucket to steam." Jia Min didn't hide it, he said it in 115.

Lin Yun was confused when he heard it, "Retort bucket? "What is that. Before she could ask carefully, there was already movement outside the hospital, but it was Lin Ruhai who came back. Lin Yun didn't want to stay any longer, and got up with Jia Min to greet Lin Ruhai, the brother and sister met the ceremony, Lin Yun saw that his brother was full of alcohol, and hurriedly said goodbye, "It's not early, I disturbed my sister-in-law for a long time, I should go back." Then, he said goodbye to Lin Ruhai again, and Fang helped the girl away.

Jia Min hurriedly called Mama Qi to take a few people to send Lin Yun back, and when she was done, she ordered someone to fetch water to bathe Lin Ruhai, and asked someone to prepare honey water to relieve the hangover.

Lin Ruhai had already removed his coat and rolled on the couch to pretend to be dead, and as soon as Jia Min entered the room, he covered his nose and complained: "Why did you drink so much?" ”

Lin Ruhai sighed: "That Mu Lin told me after drinking that he figured it out, and in the future, he should study hard, be an official well, and never play any elopement tricks again." He also told me that I made him figure it out and didn't go down the wrong path. If I hadn't stopped him, and I hadn't thought of making him understand the hardships of the world, he wouldn't know what would happen to him now, and maybe his life would have been gone. He also pulled me to cry, not to say that I was his savior, and when I went home, I wanted to make a board and offer ......" Speaking of this, Lin Ruhai grinded his teeth hatefully, "You say, why is he so undetermined, it's only been a few days, but after being a gentleman twice, he was cured of his second disease?" ”

Jia Min smiled, "You don't look at it, how he grew up." By the way, I thought that after you told him those words, he would back down. But fortunately, it was not easy to persist for several days. That Wang Xiaoxiao, what is he going to do? "If you love it, if you figure it out, you will throw it down immediately, Mu Lin is afraid that he is also very affectionate.

Mentioning this, Lin Ruhai had to say that Mu Lin was really a very responsible person, "He borrowed five hundred taels of silver from me and asked someone to bring it to Wang Xiaoxiao, except for the one who ransomed her, the rest was given to her." also settled her down temporarily, saying that he would find her a family to marry. ”

is like Wang Xiaoxiao, his appearance is ruined, and he is from such a background, it is difficult to find someone to marry in the capital, but if he marries in the countryside, he can still marry a good man. She has money in her hands and means, and if she lives in peace, she can live well.

"It's a responsible one." Jia Min also sighed, "It's just that it's too unfair to his wife, if I am his wife, I have to clean him up." ”

Lin Ruhai said: "Listening to Yang Ze, his wife is very virtuous. ”

"Hmph, he's cheap." Jia Min said hatefully. "Hey, the water is good, why don't you go wash it quickly." As he spoke, the water had been ready, and all kinds of toiletries had been arranged.

Lin Ruhai came over with a smile on his face, stretched out his arms, and hugged Jia Min in his arms, "Daughter-in-law, this time you stink like me, just let's wash it together." Then he smiled and leaned into her ear and said, "I'll serve you, ah......"

Someone pinched his waist and twisted it hard, Lin Ruhai's voice immediately changed, "Madam, madam, I was wrong, Madame spares my life." ”

"Humph!" Although Jia Min pinched her husband, she didn't resist and let him go in.

When the girls in the outer room saw it, they all immediately retreated, and sat under the porch in the outer room, but they did not dare to go far, and when they saw the master's call, they could not hear it. They sat together in pairs, whispering and laughing.

Green Butterfly had just returned from home, and when she entered the hospital, she saw that the girls around her grandmother were all sitting down under the porch, and she immediately understood what was going on in the house. Her face flushed, she sighed in her heart, twisted her body, and entered her room.

Cuizhu and the others all saw the green butterfly, and Lumei took the lead and smiled: "Looking at her appearance, I'm afraid it will break my heart and liver." ”

Bai Lan snorted, "She is complete in life, and she has a heart." ”

Mo Ju said lightly: "Okay, leave some virtue in your mouth, that's the uncle's personal girl." ”

"What about the personal girl, isn't Xiangqiao too, it's not sent out yet. If you really want to say that you have a deep affection for your uncle, it has to be Bi Xuan and Qi Lan, don't the two of them also go out. Bai Lan was unconvinced and retorted, who in Songfeng Courtyard doesn't know now, the uncle is obedient to the grandmother, and even with them, the big girls, are better than the uncle's nurse in the Songfeng Courtyard.

Mo Ju can't look down on Bai Lan's appearance of pinching the tip of the strong, grandma has only been in the door for a few months, and she drove the people in the uncle's house, although they are at fault, but when they say it, it is not good to say. At this time, they squeezed the uncle's personal girl and the nurse, and let the people in the house say what the grandmother said. People won't talk about these girls, they will only say that the grandmother is flamboyant and pampered.

She was still waiting to train Bailan again, and was pulled by Cuizhu, Mo Ju turned her head to look, and saw Cuizhu winking at her. Mo Ju raised her hand to comb her sideburns, and inadvertently looked to the left, and saw Mama Qi standing in a corner, and she didn't know what she was looking at.

As soon as Mo Ju saw the direction she was facing, it was not the house of the uncle and the grandmother, and she was immediately angry, what did she want to do!

When Mama Qi saw that Mo Ju had found her, she didn't hide anymore, she straightened her clothes generously, stepped out, and walked this way. When he got in front of them, he raised his voice: "Why are you all sitting outside?" Uncle drank too much, he should have waited for him to rest earlier. ”

In the middle, after the love just now, Jia Min, who had a particularly bright face, heard Mama Qi's words clearly, she glanced at Lin Ruhai, and the meaning was very clear, the person sent by your cheap mother, you go and send it yourself. (To be continued......)
