Chapter 322
"There are a few old plum trees over there, not only blooming early, but also blooming beautifully, the color is also good-looking, the second sister-in-law must like it, the third sister, let's go over there and cut a few branches, just cut a few branches!" Lin Jing pulled Lin Wan's arm and pleaded coquettishly while shaking.
"The fourth sister should know where it is!" Lin Wan's face was slightly gloomy, and she whispered with a little reproach.
A trace of hesitation flashed on Lin Jing's face, and in the end, she was defeated by the desire for the old plum tree, tilted her head and thought for a moment before saying, "Send two people to go over to explore first, and make sure that no one is going over, third sister, okay?!" ”
Although Lin Wan didn't come to the depths of Meilin, she had also heard of those old plum trees, and she also wanted to cut a few of the best plum branches for An Huijuan, but Lin Jing's heart was a little relieved when she said this.
Lin Jing saw that Lin Wan had no objection, and immediately ordered two maids to explore the way first.
The sisters were not far from the pavilion, and the maid who had gone to explore the path came back quickly, and they did not find anyone in the pavilion or its surroundings.
Lin Jing rushed over with a cheer, Lin Wan shook her head helplessly, and could only follow closely.
After walking a short distance, in Lin Jing's cry of surprise, Lin Wan saw several half-opened and half-budding plum blossom trees, which really bloomed earlier than the plum blossoms outside and the flowers were very beautiful.
The red is as bright as fire, and the white is as pure as snow.
In addition to the ordinary red and white, there are also pink and gradient colors, which makes Lin Wan a little dizzying, these old plum trees are not an exaggeration to say that they are treasures in the plum!
Look at the beauty of this branch and see that branch is more beautiful, for a while, Lin Jing pointed to more than a dozen branches for the maids to cut them down, Lin Wan hurriedly stopped them: "You can cut two branches of each color, and it is a waste to cut too much." ”
The sisters were busy choosing the plum branches that best suited their hearts, and the maids were even more giggled, and the quiet plum forest looked cheerful and lively, and no one paid attention to the group of people who appeared on the other side of the plum pavilion.
The people who appeared in Meilin were Lin Hongfei, Lin Hongyu brothers and the three Ye brothers who left Ci'an Yuan and went to the study.
They talked in the outer study, and Lin Hongyu proposed to come to the Plum Pavilion to enjoy the plum while reciting poems and making fu, and even had the plan to eat the pot while enjoying the stove in the Plum Pavilion.
Lin Hongfei wanted to see the ability of Lin Hongyu and the three brothers of the Ye family to chant poems on the spot, although he did not nod and agree to the proposal to eat the pot, but he did not object to everyone coming to enjoy the plums.
It's just that I didn't expect to hear the laughter of the woman in the plum forest before I arrived at the plum pavilion.
At first, I thought it was a maid from the courtyard who came here to pick plum branches, but Lin Hongfei's brows furrowed.
When I stopped and listened carefully, I actually heard the voices of Lin Wan and Lin Jing.
Lin Hongfei's slightly frowning brows slowly relaxed, and he continued to take everyone to the Plum Appreciation Pavilion.
Because there are not many pink plum blossoms that bloom well, the sisters didn't pick a suitable branch for a long time, so Lin Jing pulled Lin Wan to walk in another direction.
As soon as she turned the two plum trees, Lin Jing, who was walking in front, saw someone coming.
Before she could see who it was, Lin Jing was so panicked that she pulled Lin Wan and hid behind an old plum tree.
Lin Wan, who was caught off guard, was pulled by Lin Jing so suddenly, her body's center of gravity was unstable, and she was about to fall when she stumbled, so she reached out and supported the old plum tree, and the stinging pain in her palm made Lin Wan gasp.
Although Lin Hongfei, who had already discovered the sisters, did not know whether Lin Wan was injured because they were a little far away, he could see the painful expression on Lin Wan's stumbling face and the little face that was not hidden behind the old plum tree.
I didn't expect that there were people around him who were faster than him, but I just felt that after a few brushes, I had lost the figure of the three brothers of the Ye family around him, and when I looked up, the three brothers of the Ye family had already run in front of me and ran towards Lin Wan quickly, and the one who ran at the front was the youngest Ye Shen!
Lin Wan is her own sister, if her sister has an accident, how can she be left behind?
So Lin Hongfei also ran along.
"Show me, sister, where did you get hurt?" As soon as he ran to Lin Wan's side, Ye Shen reached out to pull Lin Wan's hand, and asked eagerly.
"Brother Shen, why are you here?" Lin Wan asked in surprise as she quietly turned sideways to avoid Ye Shen's outstretched hand.
Seeing the Ye family brothers at first glance, Lin Wan was shocked, but it also made her understand why Lin Jing was pulling herself to hide just now.
"Hold out your hand and show me!" Ye Shen didn't pull Lin Wan's hand, his heart suddenly felt empty, and he didn't answer Lin Wan's words, just stared at Lin Wan's small hand hanging by his side with a calm face.
"Huh? Oh. Seeing Ye Shen's face, Lin Wan had to dispel the idea of passing the test with a joke, and obediently stretched out her hand.
In order to stabilize her body just now, Lin Wan really used a lot of force to help the old plum tree, not to mention that her palms were red at this moment, and there were blood beads in two places, obviously stabbed by the rough skin of the old plum tree.
After the Ye brothers and Lin Hongfei brothers appeared, Lin Jing, who was standing timidly on the side, couldn't help but exclaim when she saw the injury in Lin Wan's palm, she didn't expect Lin Wan to be injured.
This was definitely not her intention!
Just now, just because she saw a man coming, she thought about pulling Lin Wan to hide first, and then make plans when she saw who was coming.
She really just pulled it with her hand, she really didn't expect Lin Wan to get hurt.
But now that she is doing well, Lin Wan hurt her palm, and the five people in front of her are either Lin Wan's own brother or Lin Wan's adoptive brother, and they all have a deep distress in their eyes when they look at Lin Wan, and the gaze poured on them is more reproachful, even Lin Hongyu, who has always been not very close to Lin Wan.
Lin Jing suddenly panicked and embarrassed, and her eyes turned red.
Seeing that Lin Jing was about to drop the golden beans, Lin Wan hurriedly smiled and said, "It's just a little bit of skin, and it's okay to clean it and rub some medicine later." By the way, didn't you go to the study room to ask for teaching, why did you come here? ”
Lin Hongfei naturally understood in his heart that Lin Jing was just an unintentional mistake, although he inevitably blamed Lin Jing for being rough, but it was not easy to grasp this matter, so he followed Lin Wan's words and said: "Now is a good time to enjoy plum blossoms, and your fourth brother proposed that everyone come here to enjoy plum blossoms, hoping to make satisfactory poems and songs." By the way, do you want the third sister and the fourth sister to have fun together? ”
From last year's lotus appreciation party, Lin Hongfei knew that Lin Wan was a talented girl with a certain spirituality in poetry and songs, so he proposed.
Lin Jing was not interested in poetry and songs, but because of her recklessness, Lin Wan was injured, so she was naturally embarrassed to leave Lin Wan and go back first, so she looked at Lin Wan, and when she saw Lin Wan nodding, she also responded.
She is not interested in poetry and songs, and she is still young, but as a girl from Zhennanhou Mansion, she still has the ability to appreciate poetry and songs.
Seeing that the two sisters nodded, Lin Hongfei sent Lin Linwan and Lin Jing the cut plum branches back first, and then simply sent a letter to Ci'an Garden, saying that their brothers and sisters would eat pots around the stove in the Plum Pavilion and would not go to Ci'an Garden to eat.
This kind of thing often happened in Zhennanhou Mansion, so Cai asked people to inform Tang, and soon a steady stream of people sent the utensils and ingredients for eating pots.
Of course, no one forgot the injury on Lin Wan's hand, and before the ingredients were delivered, Dong Xue quietly went back to Qingyunju to get the ointment back.
After Lin Wan cleaned the wound and applied medicine, the stove was also hot, and the fragrance of the pot was mixed with the fragrance of plum, which made everyone's index finger move.
