Chapter 30: A Girl's Heart

That night, a group of girls gathered in the pavilion in Zhang's mansion, no more, no less, exactly seven people. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info Zhang Mengjia restored her daughter's outfit and sat in the middle, wearing a Bixia long skirt, which added a bit of dusty temperament to the elegance. Jasper swayed diagonally on her low-hanging sideburns, and a butterfly headdress made of jade spread her wings. Lightly swept the moth eyebrows, applied a thin powder to the face, bright and glamorous, and teased the people around him.

The six girls sitting around Zhang Mengjia were all wearing silk and satin, and the ornaments on their heads were also delicate and chic, obviously not ordinary ladies.

These six people are either the best friends of the Zhang family in Jeju or relatives of the Zhang family, and they gathered at the Zhang family on this day to celebrate the Qixi Festival. There was a melon and fruit wine on the table in front of these seven people, and several people didn't look at it, only focusing on the needle and thread in their hands, threading the needle to the moon.

Threading needles and begging, one of the customs of Qixi Festival, is an earlier way of begging. At this time, it is necessary to make different types of multi-hole needles, including eyes, five holes, seven holes, nine holes, etc., and the materials are gold, silver, wood and stone in addition to copper and iron. Then the young women who have a good relationship meet together, and on the night of Qixi Festival, they hold silk threads to the moonlight and thread the needle, and whoever wears it first is "lucky".

"Haha! I got a coincidence. Zhang Mengjia took the lead in passing the color thread through the nine-hole needle he used, and was overjoyed.

The little sparrow was standing on the side at this time, and was very happy to see that his young lady had won the first place. "Miss, Miss, you're awesome!"

The six girls who competed with Zhang Mengjia were lucky at first sight, and they all put down the needle and thread in their hands and no longer threaded the needle.

"Little sister is really ingenious, maybe something good will happen soon!" Sitting in the first seat of Zhang Mengjia was one of her cousins, who made a joke when she saw Zhang Mengjia finish first.

Zhang Mengjia didn't expect that she could finally be lucky, and after listening to her cousin's words, she was rarely shy.

"Humph! I think it's my cousin's good thing coming. Zhang Mengjia sneered at each other and said that this Qixi Festival is also to find a good partner for his second brother, and his cousin is also one of the candidates.

"Sister Zhang is always so fast-talking, but Sister Zhang is so beautiful, there must be many young talents to pursue." Another girl who was close to Zhang Mengjia said with a smile.

"Cut...... I'm not unusual! Zhang Mengjia thought of the few gentlemen who were chasing after him, and said disdainfully.

"That's it! No kidding, let's take our own fruit! Zhang Mengjia's cousin, the eldest of the crowd, presided over the party.

The other maidens instructed their maids to put the fruit on the table, and the little sparrow also put the fruit on the table.

Looking at the Qiaoguo on the table, Zhang Mengjia's face turned red again, and the little sparrow standing behind her also looked unnatural. It turned out that Zhang Mengjia didn't make the Qiaoguo by herself, and the Qiaoguo she took was packed back in Zuixianlou.

Sharing the fruits of your work with your peers and friends is a unique custom in Shandong. On the day of Qixi Festival, the women of various families meet with close friends to get together, and then enjoy the Qixi food together and share the happiness and deliciousness of the festival. In the end, whoever makes the fruit is eaten cleanly, which shows whose craftsmanship is exquisite. In this way, people will also think that the Weaver Girl will bring them a happy life and make their wishes come true.

The fruits of the seven girls are placed together, with different colors and shapes, exuding a faint fragrance. Although everyone had already eaten dinner at this time, they also moved their fingers.

"I'll try my cousin's fruit first!" This is in his own home, and Zhang Mengjia is in charge. In fact, even if Zhang Mengjia didn't speak first, no one would compete with her, after all, she was not only young, but her status was higher than everyone here.

Zhang Mengjia took the chopsticks from the little sparrow, picked up a piece of her cousin's fruit and put it in her mouth. Chew lightly, then stop with wide eyes.

"Than drunk...... It's better than what I made, so delicious. Tasting the delicious food made by her cousin, Zhang Mengjia praised her without hesitation. Because of admitting that my cousin's fruit is delicious, I almost said the wrong thing.

After listening to Zhang Mengjia's words, everyone also moved their chopsticks. Zhang Mengjia also tasted the fruit made by others, but after tasting it, he felt that it was still delicious made by his cousin.

"Sister Li's Qiaoguo is sweet and delicious, and the little sister is willing to bow down."

"Indeed, Sister Li's craftsmanship is superior!"

"Sister Li is a good craft, one day guide and guide my sisters."

Zhang Mengjia's cousin's surname is Li, and her maiden name is Li Xiaohuan, and everyone calls her Sister Li. After several young girls had tasted each other's fruits, they unanimously agreed that she had done the best.

"Thanks to your sisters, I dare not be ashamed of my sister!" Li Xiaohuan was happy when he saw everyone praising his craftsmanship, but he still gave in humbly.

Seeing that the moon was in the middle of the sky, and it was not early, Li Xiaohuan led a group of sisters to "worship the Weaver Girl". "Worship the Weaver Girl" is also the last ritual of Qixi Festival, first set up a table under the moonlight, on which tea, wine, fruits, five sons (longan, red dates, hazelnuts, peanuts, melon seeds) and other offerings are placed. There are also a few flowers in the vase, and a small incense burner in front of the flowers.

They burned incense and prayed at the table, silently reciting their thoughts. Then they sat around the table together, eating peanuts and melon seeds, and praying to the Vega constellation again. For example, girls who want to be beautiful or marry a wishful man, young women who want to have a noble son early, etc., can pray silently to Vega.

Li Xiaohuan took the seven sisters around him to kneel down in front of the table, facing the Vega constellation, and chanted first. Zhang Mengjia was no longer the lively appearance of the past at this time, and knelt quietly on the ground, watching Vega read word by word.

"Beggarly skillful, begging good-looking; Begging for the heart, begging for a face;

begging my father and mother to be thousands of years old; Beg my sister for thousands of years. ”

When all seven had finished praying, they got up and sat down at the table to drink and eat tea. Zhang Mengjia knew her cousin's intentions for her second brother, so she pretended not to know and asked her cousin Li Xiaohuan. Said: "Cousin! What did you just pray, can you tell us about it? ”

"Sister, you are messing around, if you say the words of prayer, it will not work!" Li Xiaohuan remembered her prayers, and her face was full of fever, but she still pretended to be calm and preached to Zhang Mengjia.

"Yo...... Yo...... Cousin, why are you red-faced. Zhang Mengjia saw her cousin's pretty face flushed, and asked knowingly.

Li Xiaohuan is usually down-to-earth and generous, but at this time, he was teased by Zhang Mengjia and became twisted. After waiting for a while, he said, "You're still so crazy, let's see which Toshihiko can take a fancy to you." ”

Because Li Xiaohuan and Zhang Mengjia are relatives, they have always been together since childhood, and their relationship is extraordinary. Moreover, Li Xiaobi is older than Zhang Mengjia, so he doesn't care about speaking.

"I'm Toshihiko!" Zhang Mengjia smiled mischievously and said to her cousin Li Xiaohuan.

Li Xiaohuan also knew that his cousin once disguised himself as a man to go out to play, and it was still in Kaifeng Mansion in Tokyo at that time. It was also at that time that the uncle strictly disciplined his daughter when he saw that he was naughty, and he had to report to her second brother when he traveled.

"That's it! Several younger sisters, they are very happy to meet today. But it's getting late, so let's go away and meet again the next day. ”

Li Xiaohuan first proposed to disperse, and the sisters said goodbye to each other and left.

said that Zhang Mengjia returned to his boudoir, never slept, and instructed the little sparrow: "Little sparrow! You prepare pen and ink for me. ”

Although the little sparrow is unknown, it is still recruited. In a short time, the pen, ink, paper, and inkstone were all ready.

"That's it! You go to sleep first. Coming to the bookcase, Zhang Mengjia picked up the brush and told the little sparrow to go back to sleep.

After the little sparrow left, Zhang Mengjia wrote a poem on rice paper. The opening chapter is "Queqiao Immortal? The Beginning of the Rainbow
