When Nengzhu saw Zhang Yuan, he sang with his crossed hands and said: "Young Master Jiezi, my third son said that the snow has stopped, please prepare Young Master Jiezi, and go to Longshan to enjoy the snow tonight." ”

Zhang Yuan asked, "What do you need to prepare?" ”

Neng Zhu scratched his head and said, "The third prince didn't say anything to prepare. ”

Zhang Yuan smiled and asked, "Then what time will you leave?" ”

Neng Zhu said: "I'll leave after dinner." ”

Zhang Yuan sent Nengzhu back, he went to inform his mother, Zhang's mother Lu said: "The weather is very cold, how can I go up the mountain at night, the mountain roads are sealed by snow, and the mountain wind is easy to freeze." ”

Zhang Yuan said: "The eldest brother and the third brother of the sect said that they want to go up the mountain to enjoy the snow, there will always be preparations, the son just wears thick and solid, Mr. Wang asked his son to learn to compose ancient Chinese, the son is worried that he has nothing to write, and he can write the last article when he goes to Longshan to see the snow." ”

Zhang's mother Lu said with a smile: "By you, remember to go down the mountain early, don't stay on the mountain for a long time." ”

At this time, Mu Zhenzhen came in to say goodbye to the master mother and the young master, she was going back to Sandai Street, Zhang's mother Lu said: "Why do you come and leave, just spend the night here, the snow is so thick." ”

Mu Zhen really didn't come over for a few days, so he hurried to come as soon as he saw the snow stop, saw the young master, and was hit by the young master, embarrassed to stay any longer, and said: "The maid has to go back to cook for Daddy, and Daddy hasn't gone out to listen to the errands these days." ”

Zhang's mother Lu said: "Then let the cook start the meal early, Zhang Yuan is going to Longshan at night, and he is going to have dinner earlier, he really eats here and then goes back, and also brings some food to your father, just go back and heat it up." ”

Mu Zhenzhen was still waiting to be polite, Zhang Yuan said: "Don't send your father and daughter a mouthful of food, next year I will go to Songjiang Mansion, and I will rely on your father and daughter to accompany me to protect it." ”

Zhang Yuan returned to the study, and copied the "Lingfei Sutra" for half an hour, the rabbit pavilion came to invite the young master to dinner, in addition to the festive and lively New Year's festival, the servants are not allowed to eat at the same table with the master, Zhang Yuan and his mother's meals are naturally richer and more delicious than others, there are fish and meat, there are fresh soup and white rice, the servants are green vegetables and radish and yellow brown rice, there will be two meat on the first and fifteenth day of each month - with dinner, Cui Gu wrapped two bowls of rice and four steamed buns with two washed dry lotus leaves for Mu Zhenzhen to take back, Mu Zhenzhen put her father's big straw shoes on the outside of the felt boots, and when she walked to the bamboo fence door, she felt different, and when she looked back, the young master was standing by the gate and looked at her, and her face suddenly became hot - seeing Mu Zhenzhen turn around, Zhang Yuan smiled and said: "Well, it's really good to wear straw sandals like this, they can be non-slip, and I will wear them like this when I go to Longshan." ”

Mu Zhenzhen said: "Then the young master is careful when going up and down the mountain, the maid has gone." ”

The sun and snow were hidden for a day, but this evening it was revealed, and a sunset was infinitely better, reflecting the snow with a faint redness, like the shy face of this fallen girl.

Zhang Yuan watched Mu Zhenzhen go away, so he asked Shi Shuang to find a pair of straw sandals to come out, he wanted to wear them outside the cowhide boots, and found a few pieces of leather ties, and wrapped all the calves, the snow on the mountain must not be knee-long, it is not okay to wrap it up like this, Wuling is going to follow the young master, and also learn from the young master to wear straw shoes and wrap leather ties, clean up and stop, the sunset will sink, and the twilight will be afraid of the snow, and it will not come down for a while.

Zhang Yuan and Wu Ling went back to the room and added a jacket each, and they heard Zhang Cao's duck male voice shouting in the front hall: "Jiezi, let's go, the soldiers will go to Longshan." ”

Zhang's mother Lu Shi rushed out and told him to come back early, don't stay on the mountain for too long, Zhang Cao said: "Fifth aunt, don't worry, we won't stay on the mountain for too long, it's just a fresh picture, and the show is good." ”

Zhang Yuan took Wuling out to take a look, in addition to Zhang Dai and Zhang Zhuoru, Wang Kedian, Pan Xiaofei, Ma Xiaoqing, Gao Meisheng, and Li Wansheng of the dining class were all wrapped in winter clothes and wanted to go up the mountain together.

Longshan is Wolong Mountain, from the back of the school office has been extended to the Panggongchi side, the mountain is not high but the scenery is quite good, it is a good place to play in Shanyin City, the Mid-Autumn Festival moon appreciation, Chongyang ascending are overcrowded, but in such a cold winter of several feet of snow mountaineering is really unique, Shanyin people look at the posture, they know that the Zhang family's gentlemen are out again, and only the Zhang family's gentlemen will play like this, Zhang Rulin's son is like this, and the grandson is also like this - a group of dozens of people came to the foot of Longshan, at this time the sky has darkened, But the snow light is still as bright as day, but the snow is flat, and it is almost impossible to distinguish the location of the mountain road. ”

Zhang Dai said with great interest: "Is it so deep? "When I walked over and stepped on it, I just stepped on a recess of the snow, and I almost didn't sink into the snow.

Zhang Cao shouted: "The pioneer officer clears the snow and opens the way. ”

The group of healthy servants was about to come forward to clear the snow on the mountain road, Zhang Yuan said: "This is to clear the snow and then go up the mountain The day will be bright, each person will use a wooden stick or bamboo branch to support it, and slowly go up." ”

Nengzhu and Feng Hu two healthy servants in front, find the location of the mountain road, step by step to climb the mountain, Zhang Dai, Zhang Cao, Zhang Yuan, Zhang Zhuoru followed, help each other, laughing constantly, from the foot of the mountain to the half-mountain City God Temple is only three hundred steps away, actually walked for two moments, the old temple of the City God Temple has been lying in the quilt after dinner, I heard the noise of people outside, I don't know what happened, this snowy mountain road is closed, how can there be so many people coming, is the mountain spirit? Or a wood monster?

The old temple was trembling in the thick coat, and he didn't dare to agree when he heard the knock on the door.

Zhang Cao said: "That temple is a little deaf, let's break in." ”

Zhang Dai looked at the top of the mountain and said, "It's still early, how about we go up to the Xingzhu Pavilion on the top of the mountain and sit and admire the moon and watch the snow?" ”

The group climbed slowly again, and when they arrived at Penglai Gang, they couldn't distinguish the mountain road again, and there was a cliff on one side of the mountain road, Zhang Yuan said: "I can't go up again, it's too dangerous, and this slide will definitely be dead." ”

Penglaigang only has trees, mountains and stones, there are no pavilions and buildings to rest, everyone returned to the City God Temple, let the loud servant shout: "Old temple wishes, open the door, the son of the champion is here for a night tour to enjoy the snow." ”

After shouting for a while, the old temple finally opened the door and looked at the group of people dumbfounded.

Zhang Cao asked: "Old temple wishes, good wine and good meat are served quickly." ”

Lao Miaozhu rubbed his cloudy old eyes, looked at them carefully, and said with a smile: "Ha, it's the third son of Xizhang, this is the eldest son, this is-"

Zhang Cao said: "I didn't ask you to recognize people, hurry up and serve the wine." "I used the City God Temple as a hotel.

The old temple said: "There are only some leftovers, and there is no wine and meat." ”

Zhang Cao shouted: "You old temple wishes a good life, my Zhang family gives you a lot of incense money here every year, can't you get a sip of wine to drink!" ”

The old temple Zhu said with a smile: "There is no wine and meat in the small way. ”

Zhang Cao said: "You are not a monk, what do you eat!" ”

Zhang Dai said: "Third brother, don't be noisy, wait for Cangtou to send wine, and we will enjoy the moon first." ”

Zhang Yuan and Zhang Dai sat side by side in front of the gate of the Chenghuang Temple, looking at the Shanyin City stretching at the foot of the mountain, thousands of homes are loaded with snow, the streets are white, only the criss-crossing rivers are black and gloomy outlining the outline of Sanyin City, only to distinguish where is the Fuxue Palace, where is the Shaoxing Wei - Zhang Dai said to Zhang Yuan: "Look, isn't this a naturally generated ink painting, but unfortunately I can't paint, and the third brother of Uncle Bao Sheng's painting skills has not learned." ”

Zhang Baosheng, the father of Zhang Cao, was good at collecting, calligraphy and painting, and was appreciated by Dong Qichang and Chen Jiru.

Zhang Cao said: "Who said I can't paint, big brother, you forgot, didn't I draw a wonderful picture for you a few days ago." ”

Zhang Dai laughed and shook his head again and again.

Zhang Zhuoru asked: "Big brother, what did he paint the third brother?" ”

Zhang Dai just laughed and refused to say.

Zhang Cao said: "It doesn't hurt to say, I painted a picture of the Spring Palace, which is better than Tang Bohu." ”

Zhang Dai said with a smile: "It's okay for you to learn Tang Yin to paint the Spring Palace, but your painting is too unbearable, don't say it, don't pollute the moonlight of this snowy mountain." ”

The moon on the thirteenth day of the winter moon will be round, and the night sky after the snow is cloudless, and it should be a bright moonlight and a cold glow, but because the mountains and snow are thin, the moon in the middle of the sky is dull and dim as white paper.

Zhang Yuan looked at the white crystal world above and below the snow moon, and said in his heart: "Miss Ran can paint, if she sees this strange scene in front of her, she will definitely be able to paint a cold and elegant ink painting, but unfortunately I can't travel with her." I thought of the things in "Six Tales of Floating Life" when Shen Sanbai and his wife Yunniang traveled hand in hand - I suddenly heard Nengzhu shouting: "The wine is coming, the wine is coming." ”

The two cangtou carefully carried an urn of Dongting spring wine up the mountain, and went to the Chenghuang Temple to let the old temple toast the wine hot, and drank a big cup of wine for each person to resist the cold, and the old temple also drank a big bowl, Zhang Cao saw it and asked him how to break the fast?

Lao Miaozhu said with a smile: "The wine of the son's family is too fragrant, and the small way can't hold it, and he will break the fast once." ”

Everyone laughed.

Zhang Yuan also drank a lot, but he felt that the wine was full of wine in his chest, and he was so happy.

Ma Xiaoqing sang "Fengyi Pavilion", Li Wansheng played the hole flute and Zhi, the sound of the flute was forced by the cold threat, and he was dumb and astringent, and his voice could not come out.

Zhang Dai said to Zhang Yuan: "Yesterday, according to the judge Zhang Fenshou came to visit the eldest father, saying that he would invite the eunuch of Hangzhou Weaving Zhong to come to Shanyin to watch the lanterns, and Zhang Fenshou knew that my Shanyin Zhang's lamp was beautifully crowned in Shaoxing. ”

Zhang Cao said happily: "So it means that the Lantern Festival Lantern Festival will be held in a big way next year?" ”

Zhang Dai said: "That's natural, the eunuch likes to be the most lively, and he must be satisfied." ”

Hearing the drum tower under the mountain beat the drum twice, everyone got up and went down the mountain, there are more than 100 steps from the foot of the mountain, this section of the hill is gentle, that Ma Xiaoqing and Pan Xiaofei borrowed the strength of the wine, the two of them hugged each other, and they rolled down from the mountain road, and soon arrived at the foot of the mountain, and stood up and became two snowmen.

There was a servant of the Zhang family at the bottom of the mountain to answer, and there was a sheep cart, which was just transported with wine, Zhang Cao rushed to sit down, and dragged Bing Aya to ski away.
