................................................

March is the most beautiful month of all the months, because the imperial capital is in the center of the south, and every March just after the beginning of the city, the flowers and trees in the city rush to bloom. How can such a gorgeous scenery not attract people to go out and enjoy it!

When it comes to enjoying the flowers and visiting the garden, drinking tea and chatting, it is naturally the busiest time for the silk village and the gold shops. Recently, Yuxiu Pavilion has received a lot of big orders, and the second aunt is returning home later and later, and after cleaning up the account book for a few days, the sky is faintly white, and the second aunt simply rests directly in the study.

Usually, I don't go to Yuxiu Pavilion, because my father said that my level is too poor, and I barely draw a pattern, which is no different from the newly accepted apprentices, and I am not qualified to enter the door of Yuxiu Pavilion, in case I offend the powerful people in the city, I will be punished a little, and damage the reputation of Yuxiu Pavilion will be a big matter.

These words are really something that my father can say, and I haven't recovered from my injuries for a few days.

But today is an exception, I have to take advantage of my father's time to enter the palace and go to Yuxiu Pavilion.

I dressed up carefully, sneaked out through the back door of the Ye Mansion, and was proud of my agility when I suddenly saw a girl standing not far away, looking at me with a shocked face.

"Small.... Miss! Why are you wearing old man's clothes? What's on this face? ”

The little girl I bumped into was the second aunt's personal maid Caiwei.

I touched the slightly rough beard on my face and smiled kindly at her, "Recently, my mother's health has not been good, and I, as a daughter, am uneasy, and I want to go to the temple to ask for a peace charm to come back, but if I go out with my daughter, I am afraid of trouble." So, deliberately disguise yourself so that you can get in and out! ”

Cai Wei smiled slyly, her eyes rolled a few times, her red lips moved slightly, and her fluttering words made me tremble, "Miss's filial piety really moved the slave maid, but how can there be no one to take care of when you are away from home!" Where did Cai Qing go? She is your closer, how can she not go with you! In case Miss gets lost, the second aunt will go to Yiren Alley to find you again! ”

These words made me break out in a cold sweat, Yiyi Lane is the most famous alley in the city, the alley is narrow and can only pass one person at a time, and you can't turn around when you enter, you can only go forward one by one.

And the ultimate reason why it is famous is not because of the alley itself, but because as long as you walk out of the end of the alley, you will step into the most extravagant place in the entire imperial capital.

Legend has it that the beauty of the hook in the alley of one person only needs one look to make people feel numb all over their bodies, and they are reluctant to leave.

I have been to Yiren Lane many times, and I have been caught by the second aunt who went out to inquire about the business situation several times, and my mother knew about it for a long time.

I clearly remember that Cai Wei was very honest and cute when she was a child, how did she become so clever when she went to her second aunt's side for a few days, and she revealed other people's old mistakes as soon as she opened her mouth.

"This is a lot of heart, the temple is in the south, and the alley is in the north, I just don't get lost so I won't be confused like this, Cai Qing went to buy incense before me. Don't worry, it will take two hours to come and go, and I will return to Yefu on time in two hours. ”

"Even so, it's good. The second aunt asked the slave maid to go to the vault to get the peacock bowl, or the young lady waited here, and the slave maid took the bowl and sent it to the young lady for a while? ”

"No! No! Erniang is busy in and out on weekdays, I'm afraid that the turnover will not be open without you, you do your business, go back quickly when you are done, Erniang can't do without you! Anyway, I grew up in the city when I was a child, so don't worry, nothing will happen! ”

Cai Wei smiled faintly and bowed, "In this case, the slave will send Miss and come back early!" ”

The back door creaked shut, and I cautiously leaned on the edge of the door and looked in, watching Cai Wei's figure go farther and farther, knowing that I was completely gone, so I was relieved and hurried to Yuxiu Pavilion.

I rushed to the back door of Yuxiu Pavilion, and saw that there was no one around, so I was relieved to knock on the door, and within a moment someone really came to open the door quickly, I was overjoyed and hurriedly stepped forward, The man was stunned when he saw me, blocking the door and not letting me in.

He was stunned and asked me, "Who are you?" Why knock here? ”

I rolled up my sleeves and reached out and knocked him the forehead, "Silly third child, you are blinded by the golden juice, and you can't even recognize me!" ”

He was my father's apprentice, the apprentice of Yuxiu Pavilion, the third among the apprentices, just because I saw that he was too dull in his speech and behavior on weekdays, so he took the nickname to make fun of him, and after a long time, no one remembered what his original name was.

The stupid third man covered his head and suddenly realized the joy of "Miss!" You're finally here! If I delay any longer, the second aunt will find out that I have left my post without permission, and then the master will ......."

"Alright, alright. I don't have time to listen to you here, Cai Wei should be back in a while, in case she bumps into me, and she can't explain it with ten mouths, what do I want? ”

"That thing was already ready."

The stupid third fart took out a neatly folded handkerchief from his sleeve, and I carefully took it and put it close to my body, for fear of shaking out the contents of it.

"I'll go first, you can go back too! In case the second aunt finds out that there is less in the vault, do you know how to reply to her? ”

The stupid third patted his chest and said confidently, "Miss, don't worry, there won't be half a word from the third child's mouth." If the second aunt asked, I would say that I accidentally lost it, even if the master came to attack in person, it was just a matter of kneeling. ”

is so righteous and worthy of our love for growing up together.

I patted the stupid third man on the shoulder, and was moved to tears, "Your black pot will not be in vain, I will invite you to eat plum blossom cakes and listen to excerpts when you have time." ”

The silly third child likes to eat tea and watch the drama the most, and nodded happily for a while.

I hurriedly left the back door of Yuxiu Pavilion, went around a few alleys, saw that there were no acquaintances around, so I swaggered into Mingxiangzhai, and the guy at the door hurriedly came forward to greet "This guest officer is a little angry, but the first time to come to Mingxiangzhai?" Is there a covenant with someone, or is it here? ”

"No, open the first room of Huading Cloud Mist for me."

"I'm really sorry, the room card of Huading Cloud Pavilion No. 1 has been packaged, and it will not be open to the public before the withdrawal. The tired guest officer chooses another seat. ”

I handed him the room card in my sleeve, "I know, this is Miss Ye Hao's room card, I am her friend, so it's okay!" ”

He nodded hurriedly and said, "Yes, please come inside." He walked a few steps forward and asked with a smile as he led the way, "The guest officer can have a familiar tea cake, if not, the small one can be introduced to you." ”

"No, just take a cup of Junshan Snow Needle."

"Okay, please inside!"

Mingxiangzhai is a well-known tea shop in the imperial capital, and those who come here are either literati or tea masters. Unfortunately, I'm not one of them.

For tea, whether it is tea tasting or appreciation, I am just a half-hanger in a half-hanging. It's okay to be foolish and don't understand tea, as long as you understand some tea dregs, you can see through my tricks.

Despite this, I still spent half a year's pocket money to charter this tea room in Mingxiangzhai. If you chase its original, you really have some impure thoughts.

When this Ming Xiang Zhai was built, he must have seen feng shui and chose an excellent feng shui treasure land. It's in the very center of Main Street, with Bamboo Street and One-Man Alley behind it. As long as you open the window in the house, you can see the purple and red warblers and swallows not far away.

And the angle of each room is different, and the scenery you see naturally is also different, and the Huading Yunwu No. 1 room I chartered is the best angle among all the rooms.

There are a lot of businesses in the alley of one person, and there are only two of them who really come out in the imperial capital, one is the soft incense pavilion and the other is the green bamboo courtyard.

The women in the soft incense pavilion are full of appearances, each with its own charm, and it is not a problem to know books and etiquette. The little silk of Qingzhu Courtyard is even more extraordinary, infinitely romantic, knows the warmth and cold, and understands human feelings.

It is said that it is two families, but it can also be said to be one family, because the proprietor behind them is the same person, and I heard that his identity is still an important figure in the DPRK.

But their proprietor is no matter how powerful and I am a passer-by, and the real reason why I wander around the alley is only one.

That is the first of the flowers of the soft incense pavilion, the Oiran warm rain poem.

And the reason why I said that the room I chartered was the best one in the whole Mingxiangzhai was because the opposite side of the room was Wen Yushi's boudoir.

The tea-room clerk brought the tea up, arranged a few small snacks, and made sure I had no other needs, and then withdrew. I took a sip of hot tea, picked out a few small snacks, and after a little food in my belly, I carefully took out the handkerchief in my arms.

There are a few peach-colored jade porcelain petals lying quietly in the veil, I picked up a petal and faced the sun, the jade porcelain petals are as beautiful as real peach petals in the sun, I chuckled, and said in my heart: The stupid third child is to look stupid, pick the jade eye, it is really good, all of them are rare and excellent.

I took out a brocade box from my sleeve, and in the box was an unfinished crested wooden hairpin, the hairpin body had been polished and thrown away, and it was only necessary to decorate a peach blossom on the phoenix's mouth to complete it.

The petals of this jade porcelain are polished extremely thin, and with the silver thread of spider silk, the whole flower is as delicate and moving as a real flower blooming on the branch.

By the time I had finished the last tassel of the crested hairpin, it was already dark outside the window, the red lantern of the soft incense pavilion opposite had been lit, the window in the Oiran's room had been half opened, and a snow-white hyacinth was placed on the windowsill.

It was really not early, so I put the hairpin in the brocade box, carefully tucked it in my sleeve, and quietly slipped out through the back door of the Mingxiang Pavilion.

After turning two almost abandoned dark alleys, the familiar back door appeared in front of me. The door seemed to be older than my age, and most of the red paint on it had fallen off, revealing black-brown planks, and three of the four corners of the door had been occupied by spiders, but fortunately this back door was in a dark alley, and if it was in a bustling back street, I don't know how many times it had been stolen in.

I tore off my rugged beard, and in the middle of the night it wasn't to frighten people. I tapped the knocker a few times, and someone inside the door gently buckled a few times, and a cuckoo's voice came out of the door, and after I responded, there was a rustling sound inside, followed by "Squeak!" The door opened, and a timid little girl poked her head out, and when she saw me, she smiled happily and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

"Miss Ye, why did you come, it's dark this day, the night of the Soft Fragrance Pavilion is no different from the Longtan Tiger's Den, if any master is bullying, Miss will not be able to protect you even if she is an Oiran!"

I took out a jade fan and gently clasped it on the palm of my hand, "Got it!" Aren't I wearing men's clothes! Today, I am not Miss Ye, but the suave Ye Gongzi. Xiao Yin, why don't you quickly lead the way for this son, and find a punishment! ”

Xiao Yin sighed helplessly, closed the back door, and led me in.

At night, the soft incense pavilion is brightly lit, the spring color is very strong, and the gentle and continuous piano sound is entwined with the sound of joy that is not there, so that the listener is unbearable, as if in a fairyland.

The aroma of wine, beauty, and the incense burned in it, each of which stimulates the deepest heartstrings in people's hearts. Men can enjoy themselves here and vent to their heart's content, anyway, there are a few people who come here who can really hold courtesy, righteousness and shame in their hearts, and remember the way of saints.

Even if there is, it will be put down after two cups of tea.

Xiao Yin led the way in front, lowered her head slightly, and her feet were a little hurried, I just said that I was curious, obviously I was dressed as a son-in-law, why was she not at ease, why was she so anxious, could it be that I was not pretending to be like it, or there were other reasons.

Just when I was strange in my heart, I saw a black shadow suddenly flash in front of me, and when I looked up, there was a handsome young man standing in front of me, staring at me with a smile, playing with a folding fan, with spring in the corners of his mouth, and his eyebrows were very romantic.

I saw that he was standing firmly, and I thought that this move was not accidental, so I seriously flipped through the amorous ledger in my head, but I couldn't remember that I had anything to do with this young man anyway.

I saw that he was quite good-looking, and I was afraid that my child's stiff attitude would hurt the immature little hearts of others, so I took the euphemistic route, I smiled politely, and said gently, "Why is this benevolent brother staring at me so much, but what rude thing has I done below?" ”

The handsome young man smiled slightly, put the fan away, stepped forward and took my hand, leaned over and whispered in my ear, "Beauty is like this, why don't you enter your arms early, and travel to Wushan Yunyu together?" ”
