Chapter 266: The Twelve Flower Gods
Time passed quickly, and before I knew it, it was February, and it was almost the Flower Dynasty, and Lu Jing felt guilty about Daiyu because of Baochai's matter, so he wanted to celebrate a special birthday for Daiyu to make up for it.
On the first day of the second lunar month, Lu Jing hid from Daiyu and found Lu Zhiyu, Li Wen, Li Qi, Yinglian, and Zijuan to discuss.
As soon as everyone sat down, Lu Zhiyu preemptively asked: "My brother doesn't accompany my sister-in-law to burn incense and drink tea, play games and touch the piano, what are you looking for us to do?" ”
Lu Jing reassured her not to be anxious, and then said with a smile: "In a few days, it will be your sister-in-law's birthday, in the past, birthdays were nothing more than eating wine and listening to operas, appreciating flowers and composing poems, I came to you this time to see if you have any good ideas to give your sister-in-law a different birthday." ”
Lu Zhiyu suddenly became interested when she heard this, and she was busy talking about it, so she asked Li Wen, Li Qi, Yinglian, and Zijuan to quickly think about what fun ideas she had, and she began to think about it herself.
After a while, Li Wen smiled: "Why don't we each make a snack, and then make a table to congratulate my sister-in-law Fangchen." ”
Before Lu Jing answered, Lu Zhiyu shook her head and said: "This is not good, my brother will definitely make a big birthday cake for my sister-in-law at that time, and no matter what we do, we will be compared." In my opinion, we might as well work together to write a play and find a drama troupe to discharge. ”
Li Qi hurriedly asked, "What do you write?" ”
Lu Zhiyu said with a smile: "Just write about my brother and sister-in-law from realizing the engagement, to welcoming relatives and cave rooms." ”
Lu Jing shook his head and said: "There is nothing special about me and Yu'er, and it is not as interesting as the stories of those talented and beautiful people, and this matter is not enough for outsiders!" ”
Lu Zhiyu nodded after hearing this, and continued to think of other ideas.
Yinglian saw that Lu Jing was calm, so she asked, "Does the master already have an idea?" ”
Lu Zhiyu listened and asked, "Yes, does my brother already have an idea?" ”
Lu Jing nodded and said, "I only have a preliminary idea, and I am not mature, but after listening to Zhiyu's words, I came up with a more interesting idea." ”
Lu Zhiyu and Li Wen were busy urging Lu Jing to speak quickly, and Yinglian and Zijuan also looked at him expectantly.
Lu Jing said with a smile: "According to legend, March 3 every year is the birthday of the Queen Mother of the West, and the Queen Mother of the West will have a grand event on the same day, with peach as the staple food, feasting the immortals, and the immortals also came to celebrate her birthday, so it is called the peach meeting." I thought that February 12 also happened to be Baihua's birthday, why don't we hold a Baihua party and invite Baihua Fairy to celebrate Daiyu's birthday? ”
Lu Zhiyu nodded and said, "Brother's idea is interesting, but where are we going to invite the Hundred Flowers Fairy?" ”
Lu Jing smiled and said, "Please don't come to the sky, but you can pretend to be the Hundred Flowers Fairy yourself!" ”
Yinglian thought for a while and said, "There are only about twenty girls in our family, and if there are a hundred, we have to find some more." ”
Lu Jing shook his head and smiled: "You don't need a hundred, only twelve of the main appearances are needed, each of the hundred flowers has its own god of flowers, and each of the twelve months has a god of flowers, as long as they are representatives, the rest can be pretended to be Xian'e." ”
Lu Zhiyu smiled when she heard this: "This is a good idea, January is the plum blossom god, February is the apricot flower god, March is the peach blossom god, April is the peony flower god, May is the pomegranate flower god, June is the lotus flower god, July is the hosta flower god, August is the locust flower god, September is the chrysanthemum flower god, October is the hibiscus flower god, November is the camellia flower god, December is the daffodil flower god." I was born in March, and I pretended to be the god of peach blossoms. ”
Li Wen smiled after hearing this: "Then I was born in July, and I will pretend to be the god of hosta flowers." ”
Li Qi also laughed and said: "My birthday is the third day of the ninth month, so I will pretend to be the god of chrysanthemums." ”
Lu Jing said with a smile: "Yinglian pretends to be the lotus flower god, and Zijuan pretends to be the camellia flower god." ”
Lu Zhiyu asked, "Who are the other people looking for?" Do you want to invite a few girls from the Xu family, the Feng family, and the Jia family to come over? ”
Lu Jing shook his head and said: "Don't bother others, our own girls are enough, this time Daiyu's birthday is divided into day and night, let's do it as usual during the day, invite them to come over and drink freely." As for my idea, I'll leave it to the evening, and we'll take care of it ourselves. ”
Yanbi said to Zijuan: "You go back and tell Qingwen, and when the time comes, she will pretend to be the god of hibiscus flowers." ”
Then he said to Lu Zhiyu, Li Wen, and Li Qi: "The remaining flower gods, you can choose a few people from Youxia and Qingqiu, and the rest of the maids who were not selected will also have a role at that time, pretending to be the palace maids of the Heavenly Palace." ”
Lu Zhiyu, Li Wen, and Li Qi nodded hurriedly, and Lu Zhiyu asked again: "Where is the Heavenly Palace?" ”
Lu Jing pondered and said: "I chose to listen to Yuxuan, it just so happens that there is a Yiqing Pond and a Fengzhu Forest, and the place is also spacious, so I will handle the arrangement of the Heavenly Palace, so you don't have to worry about it." As well as the clothes and decorations that will be used at that time, I will tell people to do them in the next few days! ”
Li Wen and Yinglian nodded when they heard this, and Lu Zhiyu asked with a smile, "What will my brother pretend to be then?" ”
Lu Jing smiled and said, "You'll know when the time comes, don't let your sister-in-law know about this in advance!" ”
Lu Zhiyu immediately smiled when she heard this: "This is funny, let's not mention my sister-in-law's birthday, see if she says it herself?" ”
Lu Jing shook his head and said: "In this way, it will arouse your sister-in-law's suspicions, let's prepare for the ordinary birthday banquet, if she asks, you will say that when the time comes, you will invite a few theater troupes and set up a few tables of banquets, so it is normal." ”
Several people thought it was funny to hide from Daiyu like this, so they nodded with interest, and Lu Zhiyu proposed: "Let's not mention her birthday for the next few days, let's see how she reacts!" ”
Lu Jing and the others thought about it and thought that it would be fun, so they agreed.
The men took some further counsel, assigned each of them the work to which he was responsible, and then dispersed.
In the next few days, Lu Jing and Lu Zhiyu hid from Daiyu and acted separately, while Zijuan, Qingwen, Youxia, and Qingqiu were responsible for Daiyu's daily itinerary and prevented her from going to Tingyuxuan.
Daiyu saw that it was the eighth day of the second lunar month, and her husband and Zhiyu had not mentioned her birthday, she was secretly surprised in her heart, and there was an indescribable sense of loss.
In the evening, when the two of them rested in Wushan, Daiyu leaned on Lu Jing's arms and asked, "Husband, what time is the beginning of tomorrow?" ”
Lu Jing hugged Daiyu's delicate body and said casually: "It's the ninth day of the first month!" ”
Daiyu waited for a while, and when she saw that there was no follow-up, she was suddenly extremely disappointed.
Lu Jing saw that Daiyu's expression instantly fell, and he hurriedly pretended to say: "I remember, it will be Mrs. Lady's birthday in a few days!" ”
Daiyu was overjoyed when she heard this, and listened to his next words with a smile.
Lu Jing stroked her slippery jade back and said with a smile: "I teased you just now, how could I forget Mrs. Grandma's birthday, I already told my father-in-law a few days ago that Mrs. Madame's birthday is still in the Lin family's garden, I have already booked the banquet and the troupe, and Mrs. can post tomorrow to invite your sisters." ”
When Daiyu heard this, she grabbed his dishonest hands and said with a slight annoyance: "I just said that you didn't mention the birthday of the concubine in the past few days, it turned out that you had already discussed it with me, if I didn't ask today, would you still hide it?" ”
Lu Jing smiled and said: "Madam is so smart, I have discussed it with my father-in-law and Zhiyu, we won't say anything, see when you will ask!" ”
Dai Yujiao said angrily: "Okay, you actually joined them to tease me, hmph, if you don't arrange my birthday this time, I won't spare you!" ”
Lu Jing hurriedly smiled and said: "Madame, don't worry, I have already thought about it, when the time comes, I will personally make you a birthday cake, and then cook a bowl of longevity noodles for you to congratulate Madame's birthday." ”
Daiyu heard him say everything, and there was no surprise in an instant, and when she saw that there was no follow-up, she asked, "That's all?" ”
Lu Jing thought for a while and said, "Of course, there is also a birthday gift for my wife, I have prepared it, I guarantee that you will like it." ”
"That's pretty much it." Daiyu nodded with satisfaction when she heard this, and she had some expectations in her heart, constantly guessing what gift her husband would give her at that time.
The two talked again, and then they fell asleep in each other's arms, and fell into a deep sleep.
