What do you want a goldfish's tail for? Zhu Xian looked at the words on the paper and asked her puzzled.

Cao Zhijin explained: "The goldfish tail is not the tail of a goldfish, but a herb."

"Are you sick?" Zhu Xian raised his hand and touched her forehead, it's not hot.

Cao Zhijin took her hand down and said with a smile: "This herb is not used to cure diseases!"

Zhu Xian shook his head: "I don't understand!"

Cao Zhijin shook the note in his hand and said, "If they really sent me a goldfish tail, I'll show it to you!"

Zhu Xian nodded and went to the moon gate with Cao Zhijin.

Cao Zhijin was afraid that the note would be blown away by the wind, so he deliberately took a stone and pressed it on it.

The next day, Cao Zhijin went to the moon gate to pick up things, but she didn't expect Zhu Xian to arrive earlier than her.

She didn't care about the vegetables outside the door, only ran towards her happily with a paper bag, stuffed the things into her hand, looked at the paper bag in her hand expectantly and asked, "Open it quickly and see if it is the goldfish tail you want?"

Cao Zhijin opened the paper bag and saw bright red beans inside.

Cao Zhijin nodded and said, "That's right!"

"This is a goldfish tail, I thought it looked like a goldfish's tail!" Zhu Xian picked up one and pinched it, its texture was very hard, like a stone, the surface was uneven, angular and angular, and a little prickly.

Cao Zhijin took back the goldfish tail in her hand and put it in a paper bag and said to her, "We can try it!"

"Try what?" Zhu Xian asked subconsciously.

Cao Zhijin raised the paper bag in his hand and said, "You will know why it is called goldfish tail in a while!"

Cao Zhijin took Zhu Xian to the pond in front of the mysterious master's residence and threw all the things in his hand into the water.

I saw that those goldfish tails fell into the water and did not sink, but floated on the surface of the water and gradually stretched out, like a lotus flower slowly blooming.

"It's blooming!" Zhu Xian didn't know why she had this statement, she knew that it was just a herb, but the goldfish tails in the pool in front of her were really like a pool of flowers, which was shocking!

"Look!" Cao Zhijin pointed to the goldfish tail she first put down in the pool.

Zhu Xian looked at it and saw that the goldfish tail had been completely stretched, and its overall length could reach the length of a young woman's palm, but the petals surrounding its center were no more than the size of a thumb nail, and they were tightly wrapped together layer upon layer, and each goldfish tail had two fat petals, elegantly dragging behind the flower body, like a goldfish tail.

Zhu Xian exclaimed: "It's really like a goldfish's tail!"

Cao Zhijin looked at her and smiled: "Zhu Xian, take it easy!"

Zhu Xian looked at her and smiled lightly, how many years, she has only seen grass here, withered grass, vigorous grass in spring, even so, as far as the eye can see, it is still full of desolation.

Now that she finally saw the flowers, even if it was fake, she felt more happy than ever!

Zhu Xian wiped the moist corners of his eyes, and his hand was so excited that he didn't know where to put it!

While trying not to be nervous, she trembled uncontrollably.

She's been here for seven years, and everything around her is repeating every day, and she knows deep down that it's going to be endless!

Every time she thought of this, she was so desperate that she couldn't help herself!

But now it's different, Qinxiangyuan has finally bloomed!

In her opinion, this is not just a flower, but a hope! - Even Qinxiangyuan has bloomed, does she have a chance to go out?

She is very happy to have this kind of hope, although it is only an illusory hope, but after so many years of hope to despair, she has no courage and motivation to even produce hope!

Now that she can regain the feeling of hope, she feels full of strength!

As soon as the wind blows, a fresh fragrance gradually becomes stronger.

Zhu Xian sniffed and couldn't help but revel in it: "It's so fragrant!"

Cao Zhijin explained with a smile: "It is recorded in ancient books that the incense of goldfish tail has the effect of calming the nerves, and it is dried and stored, so it is mostly made into spices placed in sachets or made into incense."

"But the medicinal effect of the goldfish tail made into spice is less than one-tenth of its total medicinal effect, so some people think that it is actually not very effective!"

"It's not so troublesome, just put it in the water, and all its medicinal effects will be naturally released with the aroma."

Zhu Xian nodded clearly, and looked at Cao Zhijin with admiration: "Wen Jin, you know a lot!"

The two were talking, when suddenly the sound of the door opening behind them sounded.

Cao Zhijin subconsciously looked over there through the round hole on the rockery, and before he could see anything, he was pulled by Zhu Xian and knelt down.

"Don't look up!" Zhu Xian whispered to her.

Cao Zhijin lowered her head, quietly waiting for the light footsteps to gradually enter her field of vision.

The woman stepped barefoot on the weeds all over the ground, and she did not hide from the sharp stones, as if she did not feel pain at all.

The snow-white skirt sometimes fell past her instep, rising and falling like a wave as she walked.

She stopped when she reached the pond and stood there motionless, not caring that there were two people standing there.

Seeing this, Zhu Xian gestured towards Cao Zhijin: Go!

Cao Zhijin stood up, lowered his head and turned around, and followed Zhu Xian out of the pond.

Zhu Xian's nerves tensed all the way, and it wasn't until she returned to her yard that she suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.

She drank the cold tea on the table for a while, and said with a long sigh of relief: "I'm scared to death, I've served her for seven years, and I haven't seen her come out once, why did she come out all of a sudden?"

"Maybe it's because of the fragrance of flowers!" Cao Zhijin didn't know whether it was intentional or unintentional.

Zhu Xian waved his hand and said: "In the future, we don't want to go to the pond to put goldfish tails, there is a big tank in my yard, and it is the same to fill it with water and put it there!"

Cao Zhijin shook his head and smiled: "No matter how beautiful the goldfish tail is, it is not a flower, we will plant real flowers in the future!"

"You're going to plant flowers here?" Zhu Xian felt incredible, but he was eager to try.

She looked at Cao Zhijin and thought to herself, she really didn't look at the wrong person at that time, smelling her, it was very different!

Cao Zhijin spread his hands and said: "Anyway, there is nothing to do, it is better to plant flowers here, and we are happy to watch it ourselves!"

Zhu Xian nodded, anyway, outside the moon gate, there is "everything you need", then it should be no problem for them to ask for flower seeds!

That night, Zhu Xian received the thirty-second note in Cao Zhijin's room.

She was deeply disturbed by this.

Seeing Cao Brocade planting "flowers" today, she thought she had given up, but she didn't expect her to go out again!

Zhu Xian couldn't hold it anymore, no matter what Cao Zhijin wanted to do, she must know!

Zhu Xian carried the lantern and searched around Qinxiangyuan, but he didn't find Cao Zhijin.

She suddenly remembered that they were "planting" goldfish tails by the pond today, and a strong thought flashed through her mind!
