Volume I: Ancient. Dream Edge Chapter 15 Enjoying the Plum Race Qin and Encountering the Son¹
In winter, the sky is like a child, and it changes when it is said. One moment the sun was shining, and the next it was snowing.
Xu Yu was lazy, lying on the small couch on the first floor, looking at the piano shop in his hand, covered with a thin blanket, and put a brazier in front of the couch.
Looking into his attention, he heard Suki coming. Xu Promise thought to himself, 'Why did she come on such a cold day, if it weren't for the fear that people would find out the flaws, I wouldn't have braved the wind and snow to learn the piano!' ’
Su Qi, who was standing at the door, said with a smile: "I came today to inform my sister, in the morning my grandmother sneaked someone to say that the plum blossoms in her plum yard were about to bloom, and I thought that after a few days of blooming, I would invite all the girls to enjoy the plum piano." Youlan hurriedly walked over, and together with her maid, helped her untie her cloak and stroked the snow on her head.
The promise nodded, and Su Qi felt bored when she saw the promise wilting, so she gave a salute after a while, and resigned the promise to go back.
Looking at Suki, who was gone, Xu Yu suddenly lay down on the couch, thinking, 'Why am I so unlucky!' Afraid of what comes. Ay! It should take some time for the plum blossoms to bloom! I'm going to work hard these days. ’
At this time, in the old lady of the Wang family's house, "Grandmother, have you thought about the idea I told you yesterday?" Wang Ling'er, who was sitting next to the old lady, asked with a smile.
Wang Yi'er and Wang Zhi'er, who were doing it below, also stared at the old lady curiously.
The old lady in the Baguio Luo skirt sat on the double Arhat bed and laughed: "Yes, I will inform them by my mother." Your brothers can come if they can, don't bother if they can't, they are struggling with their studies right now. Also, although it is lively and lively, it is also necessary to pay attention to proportion. ”
Wang Ling'er lowered her head and pondered: "If they don't come, who will we find to be the referee?" Having said that, it's okay to be lively. We haven't seen each other for a long time, and we haven't seen my brother since last year's Chinese New Year's Eve and after the Lantern Festival. ”
"Okay, I'm tired, you go back!" They were chattering beside Old Man Wang, and the noisy old lady was upset, so she drove them away.
Half a month later, outside the Su family.
"Sister, hurry up, I heard that my cousin is going!" Su Qi couldn't wait to urge Su Rou and promised the two of them to go.
got into the carriage, Xu Yu wrapped her cloak in red brocade flowers, Youlan held the hand stove next to her, and watched Xu Yu sit down and handed it to her.
"On this cold day, I have to enjoy the plum, and I also play the piano, I don't want to move. Isn't that embarrassing? The promise complained.
Hearing this, Youlan hurriedly said: "Girl, thanks to the girls today, each has a carriage, if the third girl hears you say this, she will say that the girl is lazy." Xu Promise pursed his lips helplessly.
After a while, when she heard the coachman say, Youlan helped her promise and slowly got out of the carriage.
Standing in front of the palace of the prince, Chu Chu watched Youlan untie her cloak pitifully.
Youlan put the untied cloak into the carriage, Xu Yu reluctantly looked at it, and then protected the only hand stove that could keep warm, and followed the two sisters of the Su family who had sorted out their appearance into the mansion.
Before he arrived at the plum courtyard, he smelled the fragrance of plum blossoms.
The sisters of the Su family, who were walking in front, couldn't help but praise: "This plum blossom is so fragrant, it has all come here." ”
"Yes! After a while, I will fold some more and take it back and put it in the house. ”
After walking for a while, they came to the courtyard of the old lady Wang, and after the three sisters greeted the old lady, they came out and saw that the side wall was open, and a round arch was opened, and the word "Plum Courtyard" was on it.
As soon as I stepped into the arch, I saw that several sisters of the Wang family were laughing and folding plum blossoms in the plum forest! The snow that had just fallen on the ground had not yet melted, and a white patch was spread among the plum groves.
Seeing this scene, Xu Yu sighed with emotion: "The snow is white and the plum is red, and the branches are broken in the forest." As he spoke, he heard Chen Jing's voice.
Xu Promise turned his head and saw Chen Jing standing in the courtyard, shouting at her: "Promise this, I'm here!" ”
Xu Promise smiled and walked over, and the Su family sisters walked into Meilin to find Wang Yi'er and the others.
Xu Yu walked to the Meilin Garden, and saw an unknown piano in the courtyard, and a charcoal brazier on the side.
I thought to myself, 'This is really going to play the piano!' Oh my hands! Good thing there was a brazier. ’
Xu Yu sat by the brazier, looking at it with a crying face, and Chen Jing, who pulled herself, asked: "Who wants to play the piano today, it has just snowed, and my fingers can't be straightened." As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and looked at Chen Jing.
Chen Jing covered her mouth and chuckled: "Who isn't!" I don't want to play the piano either. I heard they called their cousins to judge! ”
Xu Promise looked at Chen Jing suspiciously and said, "Huh? Really, it can't be! After speaking, I heard a hearty laugh from the gate of the courtyard.
After a while, I saw a group of talking and laughing sons coming over.
Seeing this, Xu Yue hurriedly pulled Chen Jing to the side, and Chen Jing looked at Xu Yue in surprise.
At this time, Xu Promise asked, "No, can't men and women be in the same place?" How did they get in? ”
Chen Jing covered her mouth and chuckled, and heard Youlan explain: "Girl, I asked Mother Qiu when I came, if you meet the prince in the house, you can not shy away from it, because every year, Mrs. leads the son and the girl to the Taiwei Mansion to accompany the old lady for the New Year, and sooner or later you have to get to know each other." ”
Xu Yu looked at Youlan and reluctantly let go of Chen Jing.
Chen Jing looked at the son who came and said, "Hey! Why, Cousin Wang Lin didn't come? ”
Hearing this, Xu Yu also turned around and looked at the door, and heard Chen Jing say again: "Coming, coming." ”
I saw a young man at the door with a silver crown on his head and wearing a plain brocade robe, supported by the little maid, and his face was a little pale, as if he was sick.
Xu Promise looked at him and said to Chen Jing, "Is he sick?" ”
Chen Jing nodded at the promise and explained: "Cousin Wang Lin was born like this when he was a child, and his grandfather invited many imperial doctors but was not cured. ”
Xu answered plainly, and saw Wang Ling'er and the girls coming over.
"Brothers, this plum blossom is blooming very well today, why don't we make a few poems first!" Wang Ling'er, who came over, said to everyone with a smile.
Xu Yu looked at everyone and didn't refute it, and they all smiled and nodded in approval, thinking, 'You deliberately made things difficult for me today!' That sentence just now, I still popped out somehow, this is asking me to do it, I might as well be frozen to death now! He sat down in the courtyard without love.
At this time, I listened to Wang Xiao of Uncle Wang's house: "In the white snow of Meili, the incense comes from the cold wind." ”
Suningke: "Okay, listen to me, proud snow with red plums, fragrant with cold wind." ”
Wang Jin: "I come, the flowers are red without leaves, and the fragrance is floating without wind." ”
Just when everyone was scrambling to make poems, suddenly a soft-spoken daughter's voice sounded: "I only hear the proud branches of Dumei, who pities the flowers into the mud." ”
Xu Xu, who was sitting by the carbon brazier, raised his head when he heard the sound, and found that at some point, Wang Zhi'er, who stood up, replied shyly, and said with an embroidered Pa Shili in her hand: "Brothers, don't blame, my sister didn't intend to interrupt, but she was excited and accidentally said it." ”
At this time, the sons outside the court praised: "Sister, what a talented woman, she can make such good poems." ”
When Wang Zhi'er heard the praise of her brothers, she smiled slightly and gave a salute: "Thank you, brothers, for the praise." With that, he sat down.
At this time, Xu Yu saw Wang Ling'er on the side stand up, "Since Sister Zhi'er has made a song, why don't Sister Yi'er come to a song too!" He looked at Wang Yi'er with a smile.
Xu Yu shrank back when he heard this, thinking that Wang Ling'er, this little girl, don't see me.
Wang Yier got up in response and saluted everyone: "My sister is ugly, the morning glow urges the plum red, and the white snow spreads the fragrance of the plum." ”
After Wang Yi'er finished speaking, she heard her brother Wang Xiao praise loudly: "Good poetry, good poetry, my sister has just learned, brother, I have to work hard for a few years to catch up!" After speaking, everyone laughed.
Wang Yi'er blushed with praise and said angrily: "Brother." After speaking, he covered his face with an embroidered handkerchief and sat down gently.
At this time, Promise, who was sitting by the carbon brazier, suddenly had a feeling of being targeted by the bad guys.
She looked up and saw Wang Ling'er, looked at her with a wicked smile and said, "Eldest grandson girl, I heard that you were taught by Mr. Zhuo when you were young, I don't know if the eldest grandson girl can come to a song." ”
Xu Promise smiled awkwardly and said, "I won't be ugly, let's start playing the piano!" It's not too early either. ”
