The plum blossoms in the garden are blooming more and more beautifully.

The fragrance of red plum pervades every corner of the garden with the wind. In the warm pavilion of the house, it is quiet. Because Mingyun has been in a bad mood recently, the people who are waiting for him are also extremely attentive and hold their breath, and they dare not speak loudly. Now, if you listen carefully, you can clearly hear the chirping of sparrows outside the window, and the flock of foraging sparrows flying in again.

These sparrows are usually fed by Ah Wei, and sometimes Ah Wei forgets them, and Aunt Bai will also remember them. These days, Mingyun often sits by the window and watches sparrows peck. Those naïve little things can be satisfied with just a handful of food, unlike people, who always have so many calculations. Every time the sparrows came, she watched quietly and from a distance, not wanting to scare the "diners" in the snow.

She was wearing a long padded jacket with a high collar in bud yellow, a circle of pure white rabbit fur in the collar, and the buttons of the padded jacket were all red agate beads, she sat on the soft floor next to the bed, supported her head with one hand, and propped herself on the red lacquered wooden windowsill with the other, and looked out silently. I saw a flock of chubby sparrows falling on the plum tree and snow outside the window. They have dark brown feathers, and their abdomen is covered with fine light brown fluff, which is round and bulging, like a small fur ball, and its two small round eyes are like inlaid agate stones, black and shiny. They're bouncing, chirping, and it's a lot of fun.

Ah Wei's biggest task now is to make her master happy, she crushed the leftover dim sum crumbs on the small table into slag, brought them to Mingyun, and whispered: "Master, you look at it like this every day, why don't you come to feed these finches in person, these finches come to the house to forage all day long, and they are not afraid of people, you are far away, and your hand is gently leaking, don't be alarmed by them, they won't fly away." ”

Mingyun smiled lightly at Ah Wei, agreed to her, and said, "Okay, then I'll feed them." As she spoke, she grabbed a handful of dim sum dregs in her hand and held it, and gently stretched her hand out of the window, seeing that the group of fat sparrows did not move, and seemed to dare not rush over. So, she sprinkled the debris on the snow little by little.

The fat sparrows were a little wary at first, but after a while they realized that there was no danger, they began to gather together to grab food.

Just as she was watching with interest, suddenly, a pine ball was thrown from a distance. It happened to smash on the outer wall, making a loud noise. People will not be frightened, but this group of sparrows was quite frightened, and all the hula flew away, and in an instant, only plum branches swaying up and down and falling snow were left.

"Haha, haha." Fan Ming's smug laughter came from the path outside the flowers, and through a small plum tree, she could clearly see Fan Ming's smiling and squinting eyes.

"Why are you driving my sparrows away!" Mingyun pulled his hoarse voice, grabbed a handful of dim sum scum, and pretended to be angry and threw it in the direction of Fan Ming, but the slag was thrown in mid-air and scattered.

In the past few days, Fan Ming has come every day, and often deliberately teased her. Mingyun knew that Ah Ming was caring about her, and wanted to tease her and make her happier. She was moved in her heart, so she also bought Fan Ming's deliberate behavior.

"Hahaha, what's the fun of feeding the sparrows, I'll bring you Song's candy back!" Fan Ming raised a black lacquer box in his hand, and then said, "I see that you are quite energetic now, hey, I will take you to catch sparrows in a few days, how about it?" Fan Ming said with a snort.

Mingyun heard the words "catch sparrows", and was speechless for a while.

There was a soft sound of "knock", Mingyun was tapped on the head, she touched her head and turned to look, it was Xue Xian with a smile on his face, holding a bowl of medicinal juice in his left hand, and a rolled up medical book in his right hand was undoubtedly the "murder weapon" that knocked his head just now.

"Is your throat better? It's not all right, and I'm thinking about yelling, huh? Xue Xian's last note was threatening, making Mingyun bow his head and purse his lips.

"Come, drink the medicine." Xue Xian handed the medicine bowl to Mingyun's eyes and added, "There shouldn't be any need to urge and invite this time." ”

Mingyun smiled slightly: "I made Mr. laugh before." ”

In the courtyard, Fan Ming turned around and whispered to the gate of the courtyard, "Eh, look." Outside the courtyard gate, Ziji and the three of them stood outside, and Fan Ming pointed in the direction of the window for them to see. This was his aunt's yard, and he couldn't bring outsiders in without his aunt's permission, so he asked them to wait at the door.

Zizhang is the most lively and bold, he leaned in, and saw a gray-clothed, white-haired, and blue-haired man from the window from a distance, it was Uncle Shi!

"Little uncle, little uncle, little uncle!" Zizhang has always moved faster than his heart, and without thinking too much, he wanted to run to the yard when he raised his feet. Ziji grabbed Zizhang's back collar, and Zizhang was still struggling to run inside, shouting: "Little uncle, senior brother bullied me!" Senior brother bullied me! ”

Ziji was also very helpless about Zizhang's behavior. Zizhang is sometimes sometimes, sometimes he seems to understand everything, and sometimes he looks like a child. Although Ziji knew that Zizhang was mostly deliberate, he did feel a headache when he made a fuss.

Such a big movement was naturally heard in the house. Mingyun turned his head to look out the window, and at a glance he saw Handan Ji, Wang Zizhang and Qu Gu. At this time, Handan Ji was holding Wang Zizhang with one hand, and the little prince who had a bit of the city in her impression was dancing and struggling with his hands and feet, but he couldn't run away. This can be easily controlled with just one hand, which shows the strength of Handan Ji's hands.

When Mingyun saw these three people again, he couldn't say what mood he was in at this time, one point was surprised, two points were clear, three points were puzzled, and four points were inexplicable. She threw an inquiring look at Fan Ming.

Before Fan Ming could answer, Xue Xian behind him said loudly: "Those are my three stupid nephews, it's really rude, let the noble girl see the joke." ”

Outside the window, a few sparrows flew back quietly, secretly picking up the scraps on the ground, chirping, and a joyful satisfaction.

"Senior Brother Ziji, let go, Uncle Shi, come and save me." Zizhang was messing around with himself, looking like he didn't care about it.

"Stop me, do you hear me?" Ziji increased his strength and pulled him back, but he didn't dare to let go, for fear that he would run away again as soon as he let go. This kid is always young and messing around. When I was in the door before, if I didn't look at him for a while, I would definitely make a fuss.

"You've strangled me, it hurts, look, is my neck red, I'm going to tell my uncle that you bullied me." Zizhang's head shook, touched his neck, and complained dissatisfiedly.

"If you don't run around, I'll catch you?" Ziji's eyes narrowed, he grabbed Zizhang's collar with one hand, and raised his index finger in the other hand to point threateningly in front of Zizhang's eyes, and said, "Zizhang, don't think that if Uncle Shi is here, I won't be able to cure you, let me stay honest." ”

Zizhang pursed his cheeks, gave Ziji a grimace, and turned his head to look at Zigu pitifully, wanting to get "protection" from Senior Brother Zigu. In the past, Senior Brother Zigu was the most protective of him. Ke Zigu gave him a helpless look, and also helped Senior Brother Ziji speak, and said: "Zizhang, Senior Brother is right, when we come to someone else's house, there is a distinction between host and guest, since we are guests, we are not invited, it is rude, Zizhang, you have to be obedient." ”

Zizhang bit his lower lip, his cheeks bulged, and he looked unhappy, but he knew in his heart that he was really doing something wrong, so he was honest.

Mingyun still knocked on the window and watched, although he couldn't hear what was being said over there, but he almost knew that Wang Zizhang seemed to have been "cleaned up" by his senior brother. She recalled the tense situation in Yujinfang that day, and couldn't help but feel a little funny, she turned her head to look at Xue Xian and asked, "Sir, don't you go out to have a look?" ”

"Since it's stopped, let them wait outside for a while, I'll watch you take the medicine first, and then my task will be over." Xue Xian smiled leisurely, beckoned to Fan Ming outside the window, and motioned for him to come in.

"It's a little cold outside, so let's let them in and sit." Mingyun said.

"A bunch of leather boys, let them hang outside for a while." Xue Xian said, touched the wall of the medicine bowl, and said, "You have the window open, and the cool air has run in, and this medicine will be cold if you don't drink it." ”

At this time, Fan Ming happened to carry a lotus leaf bag into the house, lifted the lotus leaf bag in his hand and said to Ming Yun, "Cousin, I brought you sugar." Song's candied syrup, you must not have eaten it. I tasted what Ah Ji brought to me, and I will give it to you to taste as well. Fan Ming said and took the lotus leaf bag to Mingyun, pulled out the rope and opened it, only to see all kinds of candy inside. The candies are all freshly made and smell so sweet.

Mingyun opened the three layers to see, and sure enough, it was the ones she had eaten before. Her eyes couldn't help but glance out the window.

"Taste it." Fan Mingdao.

When Mingyun heard this, he smiled, and just wanted to pick a piece. Before she could think about eating that piece first, Xue Xian stuffed the medicine bowl and gave her the answer, take the medicine first.

"Knock knock." Mingyun drank very refreshingly this time, and drank it with his head up in a big gulp, and soon, the bottom of the bowl was seen. She quickly put down the medicine bowl, stuck out her tongue, her mouth was bitter, smacked her mouth, and there was still a little sweetness in it, but Mingyun hated the taste of this sweetness the most, and it didn't feel as good as the simple bitterness.

Fan Ming hurriedly picked out a piece of the sweetest sesame starch and stuffed it into Mingyun's mouth, and said, "Hurry up and eat a piece of candy." ”

The sweetness of the sugar syrup eased Mingyun's wrinkled bitter gourd face, and the soft sugar syrup chewed with a springy taste, very delicious, after eating a piece, she pinched another piece of almond lactose and ate it, the sweet taste made her eyes bend, and her mood couldn't help but improve.

"Isn't it delicious?" Fan Ming saw that Mingyun was eating happily, and he asked very proudly.

Mingyun nodded as he chewed. She had been thinking that there were still guests standing outside the courtyard, and she turned her head to look out the window again. At this time, Ziji also looked over, and the eyes of the two people touched together in mid-air.

Mingyun's mood gradually brightened because of the sugar in his mouth, and he smiled at him.
