64, double-headed lotus

The atmosphere was very weird along the way, Xiao Qingmei kept talking to the prince, and the prince responded with no saltiness. Watermark Advertising Test Watermark Advertising Test Ji Shenxiu wondered: Prince, what's wrong?

He deliberately tried to say that "Mei'er eloped with His Highness before, and when I go back this time, how does His Highness plan to explain Mei'er?" “

The prince didn't answer, but only asked him: "Has Dou Yanzhang married a wife?" “

"I'm still waiting for Mei'er, in order to be on par with the Lin family's status last year, Brother Dou went out of the scientific examination, and this year he will be admitted to the second grade. It's already a jinshi. “

"Cousin Shen, Mei'er can't marry Yanzhang!" Xiao Qingmei hurriedly took two steps to catch up, for fear that Brother Ling would agree.

Zhao Ling thought all the way, but he didn't know how to place Lin Qingmei. He deliberately wanted to separate from her, and the East Palace couldn't live there; Send her back to Lin's house. She and Dou Yanzhang have a marriage contract, and the Lin family will definitely send her to the Dou family.

The thought of her marrying someone else made his heart bleed.

Xiao Qingmei could see that Brother Ling was unhappy, so she carefully flattered him, like an unfavored child trying her best to please her mother.

However, back in the capital. Brother Ling is still?? Don't want her.

He sent her back to the Lin family and left without looking back.

Ji Shenxiu said angrily: "He was the one who robbed the kiss and eloped, but now he left Mei'er at home and ignored it!" If he doesn't want Mei'er, who will Mei'er marry? “

Mrs. Lin felt guilty after getting married, and pulled Lin Qingmei to wipe her tears, and blamed herself: "If you weren't allowed to marry the Dou family, there wouldn't have been such a thing." You're suffering in the mountains, aren't you? People look like they've lost a lot of weight. “

"Grandmother, don't cry, Mei'er didn't suffer." Xiao Qingmei took the handkerchief and obediently wiped the old lady's tears.

When the old lady heard that the prince was going down the mountain, he was going to abandon Mei'er in a mess, and said viciously: "Feng Shui takes turns, and there will be a time when he regrets it in the future!" “

In the middle of the mountain, it has been three years in Beijing. At this time, it was the height of summer, because the prince disappeared, and the emperor and queen had not left the palace for two years.

Qixi Festival is coming, and Mohale is sold everywhere in Beijing, which is the Mahara-god in Buddhism, and the people of Wei often pray for the birth of a boy. Every Qixi Festival, there are shops to make small clay puppets to put in the small cage, and the more delicate ones will be covered with red yarn and decorated with pearls on the cage. The children walked through the streets with their hands in their hands, and the laughter and laughter floated on the high walls.

Dou Yanzhang heard that after Lin Qingmei went home, he often took time to look for her. On this day, he bought some water floats and grain boards at the market to make her happy, and the water floats are water birds, turtles and fish made of yellow wax, painted with colors on them, and thrown into the water to float like water birds paddling leisurely in the river. The grain board is spread with soil on a small wooden plank, planted with corn, and when the corn sprouts and grows seedlings, it is placed on the grass with delicate handicrafts such as thatched huts, big trees, swings, and figures, and the pastoral scenery is like a sight.

Xiao Qingmei threw the two mandarin ducks into the water, gently shook the water in the basin, and the two mandarin ducks went with the flow, leisurely swaying on the surface of the water. Xiao Qingmei asked: "Yanzhang, Qixi Festival is coming, isn't it very lively outside?" “

"It's very lively, Mei'er is going out to play?" The three to five days leading up to Tanabata are the busiest days, when the market is full of delicate melons and fruits.

Small green plum to cheeks. Looking intently at the mandarin ducks floating in the basin, her big eyes narrowed slightly when she laughed, and the lying silkworm lay horizontally under her eyes, charming and delicate. She said: "Usually during the holidays, Brother Ling would take Mei'er out to the market and watch the lanterns, and Mei'er wanted to go out with Brother Ling. “

Dou Yanzhang's expression was obviously choked, he wanted to speak several times, and then said: "Mei'er, it will be Zhongyuan soon after Qixi Festival, the palace is very busy, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has just returned to Beijing, so he must have no time to accompany you." “

Xiao Qingmei shook her head: "No! Brother Ling was just angry, he didn't like her to call him "Ejun".

Dou Yanzhang wanted to take Xiaoqingmei to the market, but Mrs. Lin refused. She said: "You are a new science and technology scholar, it is a good time to seek a future for yourself, Mei'er's previous escape from marriage has dragged down your reputation. How can I drag you down one more time now? “

Mrs. Lin thought clearly, the prince snatched his relatives, and others saw that he had a private relationship with Mei'er. Now that the prince has been abandoned in chaos, even if Mei'er becomes a sister-in-law, she will never be able to marry into the Dou family as pointed out by Qianfu.

So Xiao Qingmei and Biyu went to the night market in the evening.

Biyu carried a small basket of flowers, chattered behind her, and said, "Where is there such a lively market on the mountain, girl?" Or is it fun to be in the capital, right? “

"It's fun in the mountains, too! Mei'er and Brother Ling don't feel lonely when they are together. “

Both sides of the street are full of flowers, the so-called melons, are carved out of seasonal fresh melons into a variety of flowers, mostly peony-shaped. Intriguing. Biyu bought a flower melon and handed it to Xiao Qingmei, saying, "Is there such a beautiful flower melon on the mountain?" “

"Well, no." Xiao Qingmei took a bite and shook her head with bulging cheeks, but the melons in the mountains were as sweet as this one.

There are also flower sellers on the side of the road who sell double-headed lotus, which is made of unopened lotus flowers, which look like they bloom side by side. The flower seller stuffed a double-headed lotus in Xiao Qingmei's hand and said, "Girl, buy it and Di Lian!" Go back and raise it in the water to produce flowers. “

Biyu glared angrily: "You old slave has no eyesight, my girl is not married yet, how can you buy and Dilian?" “

"It's okay! It's okay! Xiao Qingmei took the double-headed lotus, took out a few copper coins from her purse and handed them to the flower seller, and said to Biyu: "There are no lotus flowers in Mei'er's mountain, so there is no way to take Brother Ling to see the lotus, this lotus can just be brought to Brother Ling!" “

Biyu muttered: "The girl is really a tendon, how sincere can the royal people be?" The prince just looked at the girl's beauty and occasionally flirted with it, and forgot about it after the novelty passed. It made the girl miss him every day. "The prince is really not a thing! Bah!

"Biyu, Brother Ling is just angry with Mei'er, and he will come to Mei'er to play when he is angry." Xiao Qingmei is very determined.

Biyu argued with her for a few words, and Xiao Qingmei's tears fell straight down, and she went home angrily.

Soon after, it was Shangyuan, and the two-headed lotus of the little green plum withered after four or five days. There is a lotus pond outside the Great Xiangguo Temple, and Xiao Qingmei took the jasper to pick lotus flowers, planning to make two double-headed lotuses by herself.

The lotus pond of Daxiangguo Temple is dozens of acres wide, providing lotus roots and lotus seeds for the palace. Nowadays, the lotus flower is budding, and the lotus cup is connected to the sky, and it is all blue at a glance. Xiao Qingmei and Biyu rowed a small boat to pick lotus flowers near the shore.

The sound of horses' hooves on the shore was not slow, and Xiao Qingmei stretched her neck in the dense lotus leaves to look for lotus flowers, but saw Zhao Ling on horseback.

Brother Ling's coat was full of clothes, his white sleeves fluttered slowly in the summer breeze, and his horse walked leisurely, with a graceful attitude.

He lowered his head and didn't know what he was thinking, but the sunlight shone down through the plane trees beside the road, and he was bright and clear in the light and shadow.

"Brother Ling!" Xiao Qingmei shouted at him with all her strength.

He seemed to hear it, and turned his head in confusion, but the lotus leaves were dense, and he didn't see the small head exposed in the layers of lotus covers.

He was sad in his heart: he hadn't seen Xiao Qingmei for a long time, and he missed her so much that he actually hallucinated.

The horse walked forward briskly, and Xiao Qingmei saw that Brother Ling did not stop, and hurriedly ordered Jasper: "Jasper Jasper, Brother Ling is here, quickly row the boat to the shore!" “

Jasper rowed slowly, the lotus stems were so dense that it was not easy for the boat to carve a way out of it. Things such as picking lotus seeds and lotus flowers are always leisurely, and what you enjoy is the leisure of taking a small boat and swimming slowly in the blue color.

Seeing that the boat was moving forward like a snail, and then seeing that Brother Ling's horse was about to disappear, Xiao Qingmei hurriedly jumped into the water with a "plop" and trekked through the mud to the shore.

Walking in the mud is difficult and dangerous.

"Girl, are you crazy!" Jasper was shocked. Reached out to pull her, but found that Xiao Qingmei's strength was not good, and she couldn't stop dragging her. She walked firmly to the shore step by step, her skirt stained with mud and duckweed, but she didn't care at all.

Every step you take will sink into the mire. The water reached her thighs, but she only cared about pushing aside the heavy green leaves in front of her, looking for a shortcut to shore in the gaps.

When she climbed ashore panting, Zhao Ling's horse had already disappeared. She sat dejectedly on the shore, looking at her dirty skirt and shoes. I don't know what to do.

Jasper came ashore, and the boat was loaded with a number of budding lotus flowers. She took off Xiao Qingmei's shoes and socks, washed them and put them on the lotus leaves to dry, and said: "The girl is too anxious, since His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has passed here, he will definitely come back, and the girl is guarding it, why jump into the water to chase it?" And the prince is looking far away, he must have seen the girl, but he just doesn't want to pay attention to you. “

She took off her shoes and put them on Xiao Qingmei, but Xiao Qingmei's feet were small, and it was inconvenient to walk in her shoes. She sat under the tree, her skirt was dirty, and she puffed out her cheeks and said, "Brother Ling won't ignore Mei'er!" He must not have seen Mei'er. “

It was nearly noon, the sun was scorching, and the two of them were hungry with their chests pressed against their backs. But it's such a hot day. Even the merchants on the street refused to go out, and the main road was bare. There is a teahouse in the direction of Daxiangguo Temple, but you have to walk a mile, and the two of them only have a pair of shoes and socks.

"Jasper, I'm so hungry!" Xiao Qingmei looked at her with blank eyes. The stomach "purred" and barked.

Biyu sighed, took two lotus flowers from the boat, picked off the petals and handed them to Xiao Qingmei: "The girl will eat first, and when the passers-by come, we will spend some silver money to ride back." “

Most of the lotus flowers eaten in Shangshu Mansion are fried with egg liquid, or stewed lotus porridge, or chopped into stuffing and wrapped in lotus cakes. But now there is no such condition, and the master and servant eat the whole lotus flower in the mood of eating poison.

When the sound of horses' hooves came again, Xiao Qingmei's heart was full of joy: "It must be Brother Ling who is here!" “

She ran barefoot to the road to watch, and sure enough, she saw that in the scorching sun, Zhao Ling galloped on his horse, like a wind swept in.

Xiao Qingmei waved happily: "Brother Ling!" Brother Ling! “

Zhao Ling reined in the horse, and saw the little green plum in front of him with bare white and tender little feet, and her skirt was full of dry sludge and duckweed. His face was grim: "Why don't you wear shoes?" "With so many stones on the way, won't they cut her feet?
