The morning light is faint, and the birds flutter their wings, shaking a wisp of plum fragrance to break the silence of the early morning. In winter, the grass and trees are barren, but there are a few more delicate colors on the boundary of the Cold Fragrance Pavilion overnight.

Shen Yuan and Qiu Xiao talked in the middle of the night, and he couldn't remember when he went back to his room to sleep. When I woke up, I saw the two maids in front of me with mysterious faces, but when I looked closely, Scarlet Cloud was beaming, and Scarlet Moon was obviously worried.

"What's going on? I just slept, and you were like a different person. Sitting in front of the dressing table, looking at his sleepy eyes in the rhombic mirror, Shen Yuan said curiously.

"The girl has eaten, go and see for yourself. It's just ......" Scarlet Moon's smile was wooden, obviously hesitating and considering, "It's just nothing, the slave is too talkative." After that, he took the osmanthus oil, put it on the tips of Shen Yuan's hair inch by inch, and waited intently to freshen up, without revealing half a word.

Breakfast is simple, but the hot fresh milk tea, the golden steamed milk crisp, the tender shrimp egg custard sprinkled with a pinch of green onions, the assorted hot dried silk with eight treasure pickles, and a few refreshing crispy fresh vegetables, boiling water for a while, poured sesame oil balsamic vinegar and mixed, the fragrance is overflowing, and the appetite is moved.

The heat of the egg custard is just right, fragrant and soft, melts in the mouth, the shrimp is chopped, and the wine is marinated a little bit, and the natural freshness is hanged. Shen Yuan served by Scarlet Cloud and used a small half bowl, and his stomach gradually warmed up. The body is almost neat, and the appetite is also getting better, the Oiran pinched the chopsticks, sandwiched a piece of steamed soufflé and slowly bitten, the tortoiseshell cat ran in at some point, brought a body of cold air, rubbed on her skirt and began to doze off.

The night before, the cold wind blew all night, but in the morning I didn't feel cold, and the sun was warm, shining through the window to warm the room. After breakfast, Shen Yuan refreshed his makeup a little, changed into a thick and simple peacock blue hair, and went to the front yard to find out. The two maidens followed closely behind and exchanged uneasy glances.

The door was heavy, and it couldn't stop the chatter of the women in groups of three or five. Following these unclear sounds, Leng Xiang Kaoiran stared intently and went downstairs all the way. The sheepskin boots stepped steadily, and Shen Yuan didn't step into the back garden yet, bypassing the crowd watching the excitement outside the door, and first looked at the scenery in the garden from afar when he raised his eyes.

It was just a shadowy, unclear glance, and the enthusiasm in her eyes had already made her understand seven or eight points. The Oiran was momentarily stunned, and almost stumbled and fell.

She and the maid were both quick-eyed, and they held on to a certain branch beside them, and the two maids stepped forward almost at the same time, opening their bows left and right and holding them firmly.

The back garden is not allowed to enter without permission, the crowd outside the door is crowded, the water is impassable, the black and green are crowded, the hairpin ring clothes are red and willow green, and the aroma of fat powder fills each other's nasal cavity. In the Leng Xiang Pavilion, the most important thing is to be lively, only some of the things that can go straight to the heart, frightening the stupid and vulgar, can make these men and women who are accustomed to the worldly glitz and glamour be thrilled, and compete to find out.

The two maidens slowly approached with the Oiran in their arms, and the fragrance in the garden was refreshing, strongly dissipating the fat powder outside, becoming clearer and more lingering, as if leading the beauty into it, intoxicated by this strong feeling, so that it lingered and melted into one.

When the people outside the door saw the main owner, as if they had discussed it in advance, they stopped whispering and dispersed with different expressions, so that the Oiran lady could come forward and see clearly.

Shen Yuan held the stove tightly and stepped step by step into the back garden where outsiders were not allowed to trespass. Everything around was quiet, except for the occasional bird that landed on the tip, shaking its feathers and chirping.

Overnight, the back garden was planted with blooming sandalwood plums, the petals were fragrant like clouds, and the red stamens were brilliant like the sun, decorating this cold winter barren land like a sea of spring flowers. The fragrance of plum blossoms is rich and warm, irresistibly striking at the face, without concealment, without restraint, generously wrapped around the Oiran, as if declaring some kind of sovereignty.

Once upon a time, when it was winter, the grass and trees were barren, and no outsiders came, the garden was deserted, and Shen Yuan or the Moyu Pavilion Lord occasionally stepped on it, and it was inevitable that there would be depression as far as the eye could see. Thinking of the cold and lonely in the past, looking at the beautiful scenery in front of him, Rao is a cold person, after this undoubted ups and downs, it is difficult not to be moved in his heart.

Following the plum fragrance, Shen Yuan couldn't help but walk along the path into the forest. The soil is soft, scattered with freshly turned Qingfen, just the right blend of a little too sweet plum blossom fragrance, she reached out to touch the branch buds, the flowers are cold to the touch, but there is a warm current in her heart.

She likes sandalwood plums, and also likes such a lively and festive sea of flowers, and she rejoices from the bottom of her heart at a glance, all because she experienced a lot of wind and waves when she was a child.

Seeing it, Shen Yuan couldn't help but fold a branch in his hand, put the velvety light and soft flower on the tip of his nose, closed his eyes and sniffed lightly.

The two maids were relieved to see their young lady so looked, because the sandalwood plum blossoms were enviable and pitiful, but the person who sent the flowers may not be able to please the Oiran lady. The two of them were secretly glad that the master didn't expect this, and before they had time to open a smile, they heard the most reluctant question.

"Hey, who planted such a beautiful flower here?"

The Oiran lady clings to the plum branch, and then she thinks of asking the origin. She didn't get a response, so she looked back at her two maids, only to see them looking at each other, with resistance written all over their faces, as if she had asked some extremely difficult question to answer.

"What's wrong?" Shen Yuan was puzzled, his delicate eyebrows frowned slightly, his eyes were clear, and he glanced back and forth at Scarlet Moon and Scarlet Cloud, "Could it be that it's only been a night's work, and the two of you have become clumsy?" These flowers came so suddenly, and if I don't know where they came from, I'll have to tell my wife. ”

As she spoke, she folded her sleeves, pulled her cloak and walked back. Scarlet Yue's face changed, and she hurriedly chased after her and stopped her, "Girl!" Good girl, why bother the lady, the slaves and maids didn't say it just now, but they were also worried that the girl would be unhappy when she heard it, and if she got angry, she would mistake her self-cultivation. ”

Shen Yuan stopped, turned sideways and said with a smile, "Who is it?" Spending so much thought on it will make me angry? ”

The corners of Scarlet Moon's mouth twitched uncontrollably a few times, as if she was trying her best to make up her mind. Shen Yuan saw it all in his eyes, and became more and more curious. Sandalwood plum, Pankou plum blossom, meat heart red stamen, sandalwood to the bone, is to get this good name——

This is an allusion she talked about in the concept of eternal life, talking about listening to a folding fan boy surnamed Ling.
