After walking for a long time, I finally returned to Xianting Pavilion, and saw Ying'er, Que'er, Gao Wanzhi, Dai Chunrong and others didn't know what they were playing, and the laughter came out like a silver bell. ”

Ying'er and Que'er hurriedly stopped, and then knelt on the ground and said goodbye, "The slaves and maids don't know that the little master is back, and they ask the little master to forgive their sins!" ”

Gao Wanzhi and Dai Chunrong were so frightened that their faces turned white, and they immediately knelt down and slapped themselves twice, "The slave is lazy, beg the little master to punish him!" ”

I smiled and sighed, "What are you guys doing here?" ”

It happened that Bai Ge came in from outside the door, thinking that something had happened, and hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?" ”

I laughed, "I just asked them what they were playing, and they were scared like that!" ”

I glanced at Bai Ge again, Bai Ge understood, pursed his lips and smiled: "The little lord asked you to get up!" Why don't you hurry up and fetch water to wash your hands for the two little masters! ”

The people on the ground looked at each other in surprise when they saw that they were not punished, and their faces were full of disbelief, and I smiled helplessly: "Today is Chinese New Year's Eve, the day when the whole world should be happy, how can you not be allowed to play?" And said: "I don't blame you, why don't you hurry up and fetch water to let me and the fourth sister wash our hands before playing together?" ”

Ying'er and Magpie answered in succession.

Gao Wanzhi and Dai Chunrong also got up, but they only stood quietly by the door, not daring to make the slightest mistake.

After a while, Ying'er and Que'er served me and Ziyu to wash their hands, and the two of them sat down in the warm pavilion, the moon was surging outside the window, and the shadows of the trees were slightly swaying and reflected on the thick cyan window paper, as if the figure of someone was long, Bai Ge had already set up a table of snacks: eight immortal fruit grains, cloud slice cake, sugar lotus root, sugar winter melon, sugar lotus seeds, jujube paste yam cake, and wood dew.

Bai Ge said gently: "I am afraid that the two little masters will only talk and not eat well, so I will prepare some food for the two little masters, and I may be hungry when I get through it later." ”

Ziyu sighed and said with a smile: "Your maid here is clever, and she deserves to follow you all the time, I don't have such a clever maid there," raised his eyes and looked at the food on the table, and said, "Although the meaning of the wine and food at the table just now is good, it is a little greasy after all, and it is not very easy to eat." ”

I picked out a sugar lotus seed from the jade plate and handed it to Ziyu, and said with a smile: "If the fourth sister feels greasy in her heart, please try the sugar lotus seeds I have here, which are the most greasy." ”

Ziyu took it and put it in his mouth and tasted it for a while, and really exclaimed: "This sugar lotus seed is really well done, a little sweet in the bitter, and it is really greasy," and asked me again, "Whose craft is it?" ”

I smiled and pointed to Ying'er standing beside me, "Ying'er was born in Jiangnan, and this sugar lotus seed is what she is best at." ”

Ziyu looked Ying'er up and down, and said with a smile: "Naturally, coming out of the palace is extraordinary. ”

Ying'er leaned over slightly, "The little master is really ridiculous, and the slave doesn't dare to be it." ”

I smiled and pulled Ying'er over, looked up and asked, "Fang just told me that when we haven't come back yet, what did you play so happily with?" ”

Ying'er smiled: "The slaves and maids are playing with shooting. ”

Ziyu's eyes widened in disbelief, "You guys still shoot?" ”

Ying'er nodded lightly, "Because the masters in the palace often want to play, so the slaves and maids also have to know some, and the shots that the slaves and maids just play are relatively simple, and they dare not compete with the masters." ”

I looked at Ziyu, "Could it be that my sister can also play?" ”

Ziyu smiled lightly: "I also only know how to point the fur, shooting is a kind of guessing game close to divination, covering a certain object under the ou, cup and other utensils, so that people can guess what is inside. Yan Shi's ancient note also said: "Put all things under the covering, so that the clouds shoot over." 'Ancient emperors, generals, literati, scholars, most of them were happy, often played this kind of game, among which the good ones were the Three Kingdoms Wei Guan, Han Dongfang Shuo and others. ”

I thought about it, and the shooting should be similar to the lottery in "Red Mansion", which is not difficult for a liberal arts student like me, who has already turned "Red Mansion", "Nalan Ci", and "Tang Poetry and Song Ci" upside down and read it several times, so I smiled and said, "Why don't we come and play?" ”

Ziyu said with a smile: "It's boring to shoot this kind of game. ”

I glanced around and said with a smile: "According to me, let's call the maids and eunuchs together, and we can play casually for a while, regardless of anything, so as to pass the time!" ”

Ying'er and Que'er were busy, "The slave doesn't dare." ”

I got up, first pulled Bai Ge to the table and sat down, then pulled Ying'er and Que'er to sit down, and said with a smile: "What don't you dare!" ”

Ziyu smiled, "That's fine," as she spoke, she glanced at the maid behind her, and said with a smile, "Jiyue, you go sit too." ”

Ji Yue saluted with a panicked face, and her voice was soft and soft, "The slave and maid really don't dare, the slave and maid are waiting, and the little master can have fun." ”

I smiled and sighed, shook my head, and forced her over, "You should come and sit down quickly, otherwise if your little master loses to us later, he will say that the people of our idle pavilion have united to bully her." ”

Ji Yue couldn't help it, so she had to sit down.

Then I forced Gao Wanzhi and Dai Chunrong to sit down.

Bai Ge got up and took the handkerchief, fan, pen and ink, boxes and jars and other hidden things and put them on the table, and took a blue porcelain bowl to cover a certain object.

I pointed to the holder and asked curiously, "What is this?" ”

Que'er smiled: "This is an order, if anyone does not shoot, or who does not cover it well, then a jade sign will be drawn, and you must act in accordance with the order above." ”

I secretly thought, isn't this rule similar to the truth or dare of modern games, and smiled lightly, "Then let's talk about it first, no one is allowed to cry if they lose, and no one is allowed to be seriously angry." ”

Ziyu sat beside me and raised his hand to nudge me, "We are all brought by you to play with you, so naturally we won't take it seriously, just one point, you are not allowed to cry if you lose!" ”

I have always been stingy, and when I was said like this this time, my face unconsciously became slightly hot, and I whispered: "How can I cry my nose, but just give a word." ”

Ziyu said with a smile: "It's all thanks to Zixi's blessings, and I always say that it's not good for people to drink and gamble at night, and now we are doing the same ourselves." ”

Gao Wanzhi said with a smile: "In a year, there is only a birthday banquet on Chinese New Year's Eve, and there is no night song, so naturally it is okay." ”

Bai Ge wiped a handful of jade sticks in the stick, and said with a smile: "Let's be slaves and slaves are naturally the next one, so please ask the two little masters to repeat one first." ”

I turned my face to look at Ziyu, smiled and said, "My sister is the oldest, so let's go first, I'm the second, so naturally I'll shoot it." ”

Ziyu nodded, thought for a while, looked around with a clear and moist gaze, and finally froze between the panes, retracted it for a moment, and then smiled at me: "Yes, Zixi, you can listen well," Seeing me nodding, she continued, "The window contains a thousand autumn snow in Xiling, and the door is anchored in the Dongwu Wanli boat." Ziyu said as he overlaid a word on the paper as a retention.

I thought about it, after all, it was the first time to play, I was still a little hesitant, I didn't know whether Ziyu was covered with a window or snow, and recalled her gaze left and right in my mind, so flickering and distinct, faintly and faintly light, as if I was looking into the distance, thinking for a while, and finally calmed down, and said with a gambling mentality: "Sister may be over, Mei Xu Xun snow is three points white, but the snow loses Mei a piece of incense," After speaking, I put a top of Ziyu's shoulder on my shoulder, and asked with a smile, "Sister, can I shoot?" ”

Everyone couldn't wait to smile and ask, "Can you?" ”

Ziyu stared at me, pursed her lips, opened the paper ball in her hand, and pushed it to me: "Oh!" See for yourself! ”
