Chapter 54: A Thousand Autumn Years
The smell of the ashes of worship dissipated overnight, and the festive firecrackers were about to burn again. When the gunpowder explodes, the red and bright confetti splashes all over the ground, which can also add a touch of eagerness to the gloom of early autumn.
The happy event is gratifying, and there is no need to inquire at all, it is the show that came during the Chinese Valentine's Day to fulfill his wish, and he made up enough money, and finally was able to pick up the joyful dancing girl Lu Niang. The wedding pomp is not too small, Shen Yuan got up early and heard the commotion, and sent Scarlet Moon out to find someone to reprimand, and after hearing the reason, he gave up. She has no impression of this dancing girl, as if she has heard Sheng Qiuxiao talk about it, she should look good, she is an honest person.
"Just now the slave maid saw it, someone was sending a red wedding dress to the side courtyard, last time I thought that Xiucai was just talking about it, but I didn't expect it to really come." Scarlet Moon accompanied Shen Yuan to breakfast, and she was very touched by this happy event.
A hibiscus soup on the table is fragrant - Doctor Gu's words must be listened to, but the wolfberry leaves are difficult to swallow, so the skillful chef picked the shoots, chopped them and made them into soup, accompanied by pork liver, lean meat, balsamic vinegar and onions, and poured sesame oil as soon as it came out of the pot, and trotted upstairs.
Shen Yuan tasted good, and was in a good mood, and said slowly: "Well, it's a good thing." It just so happened that Scarlet Cloud went to open the box, found out the glazed peach blossom hairpin with tassels, and rewarded her when he left, so he used it as makeup. ”
"Yes." Scarlet Cloud retreated in response, and went back to the inner room to find the key and open the cage.
Leng Xiang Pavilion has also been married in previous years, but I have never seen the owner of the small pavilion rewarding people. It can't be said that Shen Yuan is biased, whether it is Lu Niang or that Xiucai, she doesn't recognize it. Maybe it's the river lamp that takes away the viscera and fire, or maybe it's the soup made of wolfberry leaves that is just right for the appetite, it's just a good mood for a while, just a coincidence.
Wedding, faint, although the groom is only a poor talent, but also insisted on abiding by the ancient etiquette, to wait until dusk to come to marry the bride, so the whole long day left, it became the home of the heron and the old sisters to say goodbye.
The little pavilion master didn't have the heart to join in this excitement, so after breakfast, he was busy holding out the pipa for maintenance and debugging. Scarlet Cloud went to the backyard to be busy, Scarlet Moon stayed to wait, found the white porcelain cup, lit the fire in the window, melted the beeswax little by little, dripped walnut oil, mixed well, and used it to wipe the piano.
This pipa is Shen Yuan's favorite thing, the small leaf red sandalwood back material from the south has an age, dense and solid, with a soft luster, the ivory and the shaft are wrapped in pulp, and it almost turns into a jade-like texture, and the headstock is not like the ordinary phoenix tail, lotus flower or dragon head shape, but is embedded with a whole piece of Jiuquan jade, carved into a thousand-petal begonia pattern.
After wiping the body, Shen Yuan changed a clean flannel cloth, carefully dusted the strings and dust, and plucked it casually. Silk hemp soaked in tung oil as strings, the timbre is already excellent, from Snow City sent Shen Yuan a pair of ice strings, she knows that the object is very rare, and it is squeamish and easy to break, it has been good to put it away, and she is always reluctant to put it on.
A few pelicans, and then a good rest. Cherish the spring and choose the residual red fold. The rain is light and windy, and the plum is green. Yongfeng willow, no one ends the sun and snow.
Don't pluck the strings, complaining about the strings can be said. The sky is not old, and the love is indescribable. The heart is like a double wire net, and there are thousands of knots in it. The night is over, and the winter window is not white, so the lights go out.
A "Thousand Autumn Years" writes the scene of late spring, and the cuckoo cries blood and urges the flowers. The current solar terms are not right, but the feelings of lovers who can sing and cry and die are generally the same. Shen Yuan doesn't like this kind of music, she is too sad and stupid, she feels that it is easy to make people stupid and dull, and lose their sobriety.
"Long live the autumn, a trick is just beginning to come true...... Zhao Xie worried? Leng Xiang Oiran leaned on the neck of the pipa and whispered two words that the maid could not understand. The good-looking side face is slightly upturned, the chin is rounded, and the lines become very soft, making her look much more approachable.
Seeing that she had finished wiping the piano, Scarlet Moon was taking away the remaining beeswax oil, finding cotton silk and wanting to wipe the tables and chairs, she heard this sentence coldly, and turned around and said curiously: "Qianqiu, long live?" What did the girl say? This year's Thousand Autumn Festival has already passed. ”
"No, you're at fault." Her young lady sat up straight, shook her head and smiled at her, and refused to say more. Scarlet Moon didn't ask any more questions, lowered her head and combed the cotton silk, dipped in beeswax oil to wipe the corner of the table. There was a sound of soft-soled embroidered shoes rubbing the ground in the room, and it was Shen Yuan who dragged his steps to hang up the pipa and found the needlework basket by the way.
Shen Yuan doesn't like to be a female celebrity, and her skills are really average, so she hardly touches it on weekdays. Scarlet Moon looked up and saw her pinching the needle and thread tightly, almost lifting it up to her to put on the eye of the needle, and she almost couldn't hold back her laughter.
"Laughing at what? It was too bright outside for me to see. Shen Yuan is still serious. It took this little needle to pass through twice in a row, and she was a little annoyed, and she didn't want to lose face.
"As soon as I came up, I heard the sound of the pipa, and I knew it was our young lady." Scarlet Yun smiled and pushed the door in, brought back a plate of red and beautiful red fruits with snow-white frosting, and said to Shen Yuan: "Oh, how did the girl make a needlework, and carefully prick her hands." ”
Scarlet Moon looked for a voice, laughing without saying a word. Her young lady lifted her eyes and handed Scarlet Cloud a roll of her eyes: "Whose hand did you pierce?" Your mouth is really bad, see who dares to marry you in the future. ”
Scarlet Cloud pursed her lips, her eyes bent into a crescent moon, she moved the basket three or two times, and held the big porcelain plate on the couch table: "The slave and maid will not marry." Sweet and sour pickled red fruits, girls eat a little? ”
"Pickled red fruit? I don't usually like to eat this, why did I suddenly send it up, which one bought it? Shen Yuan just didn't want to continue, so he just wanted to find a reason and naturally throw away the work in his hand.
Scarlet Yun took a small silver stick, tied up a plump fruit, handed it to her, and said with a smile: "The groom's official sent it can be regarded as a rich dowry, saying that although the family is not rich, he can't let Lu Niang be wronged when she gets married, so he asked his mother to make a lot of candy, please try it." ”
Shen Yuan tugged at the corners of his lips, he was in a good mood, pinned the needle to the thread, and threw it briskly into the basket: "If you want to say that, he has a heart." Scarlet Moon, leave that alone, wash your hands and come to be happy. ”
The honey-soaked red fruit is sweet and sour in the mouth, and a thick layer of frosting melts on the tip of the tongue, the sweetness is moist, and the wisps are scattered, as if mixed with orange red. The red fruit inside should be sour when bitten open, and sometimes it can stimulate tears, but because it is coated with too much honey, the sour taste is also weakened. Shen Yuan didn't like this kind of sour fruit, and she always hated sourness, but just as there was a happy event, the heavy sweetness diluted the sourness and deceived the taste, and she accepted it inadvertently.
"It tastes good. Tell the kitchen and let them learn. ”
After tasting it myself, I knew that the Xiucai who married Lu Niang had a heart, or should it be said that his mother had a heart, and every red fruit was pitted. Scarlet Cloud said that Xiucai sent a lot of it, so it can be seen that it is not a lot of work.
