Chapter Eighty-Seven: Missing
Yin Le put down the cup: "Don't send it." ”
As soon as Jimo walked out of the house, the cold wind whirled against his neck and poured into his cotton clothes. When he came, there was only a light snow outside, and by the time he walked out, the snow had turned into goose feathers.
If we continue like this, I'm afraid I'll have a lot of money tomorrow morning. Jimo stumbled while carrying the lantern while muttering in his heart.
Suddenly, he stopped, the lantern in his hand swayed slightly, and he almost didn't hold it steady.
Not far away, someone was holding an umbrella in the snow, he was dressed in white, wearing a heavy cloak on his body, holding an oil-paper umbrella, and scattered snowflakes fell on the umbrella. When Jimo came out, one foot deep and one foot shallow, made a lot of noise, and he couldn't hide at this time.
"Sir." He stepped forward stubbornly, "It's snowing, I'll go to Le Niangzi's place to see if I need to add firewood." ”
Song Yu leaned over the paper umbrella slightly, blocking the snowflakes drifting towards Jimo. He opened his mouth softly, turning into a long sigh in the wind: "First I lied to Miss Le's words, and then I lied here. Jimo, are you going to lie to me? ”
Jimo's nose was sour, and he shook his head again and again: "No, sir, Jimo didn't say anything." Jimo just came to remind Le Niangzi and let her be cautious in the future. ”
"You reminded her, what?" Song Yu's voice trembled a little, he stood in the snow, and it seemed that he could still see the house in the snow.
The lights in Yin Le's room went out, and the lantern in Jimo's hand became the only light source in the white expanse, Jimo lowered his head and replied with a snort: "I told her that the master was sick and asked her to stop paying attention to the decoction." ”
Song Yu turned to Jimo, even though Jimo knew that Mr. couldn't see it, he still looked down and didn't dare to look at him. He stood in the snow, shivering. After a long time, he caught a glimpse of the gentleman untying the ash cloak and throwing it at him.
Warmth swept around him, and at the same time, Jimo clearly heard Song Yu say: "Jimo, I always feel that I know what Le Niangzi looks like." ”
But it was by no means a twelve-year-old Le Niangzi, but she was fourteen or fifteen years old. Song Yu had obviously never seen that girl, but the girl's smile seemed to be deeply imprinted in her memory.
She was in the Qinhuai River in Jinling, huddled in the bustling crowd, looking up at the approaching flower boats. And he blended in the crowd, taking the girl who was completely different from the people around him into his eyes.
It's obviously something that she has never experienced before, and it's obviously someone she has never met, but Song Yu feels that she must have seen her.
When he woke up from his frightening dream, he heard a "Master."
Qinhuai River chooses Oiran, and the time to pick has always been the Shangyuan Lantern Festival. At that time, it was lively, bizarre, and all living beings carnivaled, and then the selected girls were pushed out, which could set off a wave of enthusiasm.
It's a pity that Yangzhou doesn't have the Qinhuai River, and it can't choose an Oiran. It's not even as good as Chang'an, the capital of the empire, and the princes and nobles will sprinkle gold leaves below when they are in a good mood. Based on this, Yin Le lost interest in the Shangyuan Lantern Festival.
But it's okay if you're not interested, Yin Le can stay at home and plan how to deal with the second uncle's nest during the Lantern Festival.
Speaking of the face of the second room of the Yin family, it was something that could not be cut off with a red knife, and seeing that it was about to be the New Year, Yin Mingqu actually returned to the Yin Mansion with a very thick skin.
Naturally, being rejected by Yin Le, the Yin family celebrates the New Year by themselves, what is the matter with the second room that has been divided?
According to the law of the Great Zhou, from Chinese New Year's Eve to the fifteenth day of the Shangyuan Festival, all people can rest and recuperate, and if there is no special need, they can rest.
Therefore, after Chinese New Year's Eve, most of the officials in the prefect's yamen resigned and returned home, and Zhang Gui also drank a little wine happily, looking like he didn't want to take care of things at all.
Everything is renewed, and the fourth year of Thai Yuan has arrived.
Yin Mansion.
Yin Mingqu's family was blocked in the front hall, He Yong was full of smiles, and skillfully maneuvered, just not letting Yin Mingqu in.
"Mr. He." Yin Mingqu forced a smile, "We prepared a congratulatory gift early in the morning, and we rushed over, why don't you let me in and rest for a while." ”
"Second master, the eldest lady didn't answer, I really can't help." He Yong had a sad face and politely refused.
"He Yong!" If it's soft, Yin Mingqu will come to the hard one, "Don't be ignorant, my inner son and little girl are showing up outside, and the little girl is still a girl who has not yet left the cabinet, if you fall into the mouth, can you afford it?" ”
"Second master." He Yong didn't eat soft and hard, "The affairs of the Yin Mansion are all taken care of by the eldest lady, and the second lady is also a girl who has not left the cabinet." As an uninvited guest, you are not ashamed to make trouble for the eldest lady and compare your heart to your heart? ”
Hearing Yin Le's name, Yin Jinluan, who was walking last, suddenly raised his head, and before he could speak, he was covered by Xu's mouth. She could only look at He Yong hatefully, as if it was Yin Le Yin Jinyu.
Yin Mingqu had no choice but to wait outside. After waiting for a long time, I saw a delicate maid wearing a pink jacket come out. The maid lowered her eyebrows and whispered Yin Le's instructions. But Yin Mingqu's family immediately shut their mouths, and the Xu family trembled even more.
That maid is none other than the most capable red girl around Yin Le. provoked the Puhong girl, if she moved, ten thugs would not be able to beat her, let alone the three of them.
"The eldest lady means that since the second old man specially prepared a congratulatory gift, let's stay for Chinese New Year's Eve before leaving." Pu Hong said.
Yin Mingqu was greatly moved, and couldn't help but turn around and say, "Look, Yu'er still remembers my second uncle." Xu agreed, but in his mind, he remembered the pain of being removed from his jaw at that time, and he trembled for a while, and he didn't know what to say.
Compared with Xu's fear and Yin Jinluan's resentment, Yin Mingqu was overjoyed. The Xu family didn't understand why Yin Mingqu had to return to the sad place of Yin Mansion. But Yin Minglu always looked unpredictable, which made her confused and afraid.
After Yin Le welcomed Yin Mingqua in, the names of the rest of the gates of Yangzhou were handed over. The first day of the Lunar New Year is a day to greet each other, because it is too late to visit one by one, the Great Zhou Dynasty is prosperous and the New Year is a day to hand each other a name. As long as they are not relatives and friends who are too close to each other, they often prepare congratulatory gifts and send them to the house with their names, even if they are celebrating each other's New Year.
Yin Le received the congratulatory gift, while ordering someone to transcribe the gift list, and at the same time select a suitable gift from the treasury to give back. When all these congratulatory gifts were lighted, and the time was also in the evening, Yin Le collapsed on the wooden chair and took out the last package in his arms tremblingly.
When she took the package in her hand, He Yong came over again and held a package in her hand.
"Miss, it's a congratulatory gift from the Yitang." He Yongshen said mysteriously, Yin Le blinked in surprise, and casually wrapped himself on the ground, "I know, this is a congratulatory gift to Master Song of the Yitang Dynasty, please ask Manager He to run it personally." ”
