There is no bright color in the late autumn fern, why is it planted in people's homes?

So that the gentleman is self-defeating, and fights to turn back and love the white flower.

Don Bai Juyi "White Hibiscus Flower"

Lang Lang autumn is high and refreshing, and the wild geese fly south.

The hibiscus flowers are still blooming and falling, and there are still people who are willing to pick up the flowers at sunset.

A corner of the flower wall is full of a clump of white hibiscus, and the immature back is not unfamiliar. The horn of the two-braided ghost horse elf, wearing a pink and white Luo skirt fluttering in the wind, Gao Jin'er stood next to the flower wall of her flower room, looking up at the high blue and winking, as if the floating white clouds were talking to her. When I was learning to speak, I also thought the same way, why didn't the white clouds come down to tell her stories?

As usual, I memorized the favorite Tang poem: "There is no bright color in the late autumn fern, why is it planted in other people's homes, so that the gentleman will not apply his face, and fight to turn back and love the white flowers......"

She asked a long time ago:

"Daddy, why did you plant hibiscus in other people's homes?"

Dad smiled and loosened the soil for the white hibiscus, but did not answer.

The same words went to the mother: "Mother, why are you planting hibiscus in other people's homes?" ”

The mother smiled and did not answer.

My mother has a very beautiful wooden hairpin, which is a hibiscus pattern, and it is said that my mother snatched it from my father's hand. Gao Jin'er always saw her mother holding the woman's head with the hibiscus hairpin, taking it with her for a lifetime, and accompanying her father for a lifetime.

In fact, Jin'er also knows one of the ninety-nine, white hibiscus is the flower of love of her father, I heard the old things mentioned by my mother, my father when I was young was a "flower thief", I stole a handful of hibiscus flowers from my mother, and they had no intention of tying hair when they grabbed flower branches, but I didn't expect this knot to be the fate of a lifetime.

Are you ingenious!

In this family, Jin'er only has her father and mother to call.

Dad will only call two names, one is to call his beloved daughter, Jin'er; The other is calling for his wife, Su Mi.

The mother will only call two names, one is her beloved daughter, Jin'er; The other is the husband: Lin Feng.

A family of three, so simple and warm.

Therefore, Jin'er has never seen her grandparents, maternal grandfather, and maternal grandmother, as if this family has been guarding the flower house alone all their lives, serving as a diligent gardener in the flower garden, and then transmitting the fragrance of flowers to thousands of households. Sometimes Jin'er can also act as an errand, today to the Zhang family to send orchid potted plants, Ming to the Li family to hold a daffodil pot. Those big families especially like hard-working and sensible girls like Jin'er, and in addition to paying their due commissions, they also give some other rewards.

In addition to going to Ningjia Villa every year to send a basket of hibiscus, there is neither commission nor reward, but the hibiscus flowers at home only bloom quietly, never sold, and cannot be used as potted plants. Jin'er asked her father why he wanted to send flowers to the Zhuangzi, and he put his arms around his daughter: "There is a white hibiscus fairy living in the Zhuangzi, so naturally I want to send flowers to the flower fairy!" ”

At that time, Jin'er really believed it, and she couldn't deceive her when she was nine years old, but when she went to deliver flowers at the age of ten, she really met a fairy, maybe it was her father's flower fairy.

Jin'er was smart when she was a little, she was taught by her mother to read and recite poetry at the age of three. When he was two years older, he held his father's long sword and "created" a set of swordsmanship in style.

Since the chivalrous story of the "Sun and Moon Heroes" on the rivers and lakes spread, Jin'er has become more and more attentive to swordsmanship. The father practiced swords in the yard, and the daughter often made two strokes behind her back, and such a picture became the only practice in the family. If the father practiced swordsmanship and there was no daughter behind him, as soon as he turned his head, he could see her "killing" with a sword!

"Daddy, have you heard the story of the Sun and the Moon? They're amazing, and I'll want to be the sun and the moon in the future! "Jin'er has always had such lofty ambitions.

Daddy smiled, and the beard on his chin was curled up, "Daddy doesn't just know about this rumor, but also knows the Sun and Moon Heroes!" ”

Jin'er didn't believe it, the threshold of the house didn't even step in, and she dared to know the Sun and Moon Heroes? Coax the ghost to go!

To tell the truth, Jin'er has never seen the sun and the moon, and she has listened to the people who have been helped in the market. One of them wears a round mask like the sun, and the other wears a mask of a crescent moon, so they are called the Sun and Moon Twins. Jin'er sometimes climbs to the high eaves and sits with her face in her hands, thinking that if she is lucky, she can meet the chivalrous Sun and Moon Heroes, so she sits and looks stupidly several times, but the Heroes don't see it, but the Sun and Moon are wonderful!

"Mother, Daddy, he knows the Sun and Moon Heroes, do you know?" Jin'er is like this, she has tireless persistence, and some things have to break the casserole to the end.

Mother and father have the same smile: "Not only does your father know the Sun and Moon Heroes, but your mother also knows it!" ”

Jin'er's eyes widened, and she smacked her lips: "Wow! ......" looked disbelieving, in fact, she didn't know whether her father's mother was lying or the truth.

Many times, my mother is very fond of falsehood.

Once, Jin'er turned to the medical book, which wrote that hibiscus flowers can be used as food and medicine, which can clear away heat and dampness, cool blood and detoxify. She picked a few hibiscus flowers to cook porridge and taste the taste, but when her mother saw it, her mother was shocked: "Oh! This flower is poisonous and cannot be eaten! ”

Frightened, Jin'er hurriedly poured the porridge in the corner, but she didn't pay attention, the porridge in the corner was licked by the white dog raised at home, she was so anxious that she cried loudly, took the white dog in her arms, and said to herself: "Dog, although I hurt you, but I didn't mean to, I will definitely bury you a feng shui treasure, and in the next life, you will ask someone to play with me!" ……”

Tears fell on the white dog like a string of crystal pearls, and the white dog had an inexplicable expression, the big black dog looked at Jin'er, and its paws caressed her face softly, as if to comfort her.

The white dog is alive and kicking; The second, the white dog ate and drank enough and slept soundly, and the third began to be nosy, the white dog jumped on the eaves and picked up the hole in the ground, according to the mouse.

Jin'er was very angry, A-Niang really lied to her for a long string of tears! I reported this matter to my father and asked my father to reason, but my father looked up and smiled when he heard it, and he didn't say anything.

Later, Jin'er learned that any bush of hibiscus in the world can be eaten, whether it is stewed meat, porridge or soup, but the white hibiscus on the wall in front of her father's courtyard cannot be moved. However, Jin'er no longer thinks about using flowers to make soup, because it doesn't taste good at all! Bitter and bitter, such a beautiful flower, it is useless, it is only worthy of appreciation, decorating the yard.

There are so many colors of hibiscus, why does Daddy only plant white hibiscus? Perhaps, in Daddy's heart, he likes white colors, at least that's what Jin'er thinks, but A-Niang likes colorful hibiscus.

It's like the stream garden, which is planted with flowers of all colors and seasons, and hibiscus in purple and red. Therefore, in spring, summer, autumn and winter, the flow garden is full of flowers, which is really the flower land of the flower fairy.

A family of three also often comes here to enjoy the snow, and it is like a paradise. Jin'er feels that the word "flowing flower" is particularly in line with the situation, and there is no flower in the world that will stay for a lifetime, but will only bloom and fall along with the four seasons, and continue to lose as many years.

Jin'er learned that her father and mother met in the flow garden, and they also married their husbands and wives in this sea of flowers, and they had a little respect for this garden.

In the spring of the flow garden, the peach blossoms are dying, and the father will step on the falling flowers to play the sword dance to the mother and son, although the father's sword dance is not as good as the dance of the Gongsun aunt and the sword moves in all directions, but it is also an exclusive performance, and it is unparalleled. Sometimes the husband and wife will also dance together and have a good conversation.

In summer, the hibiscus pond blooms in the middle of the season, and the air is fresh after the new rain. Daddy rowed the sculls, carrying the mother and mother to wear flowers in the pond, Jin'er leaned on the boat, stretched out her hand to meet the lotus leaves, the cool rain and dew will be like a waterfall to drain down, but cool!

The autumn mountains are golden, and the most suitable scenery is that the mother sits under the flower tree to make tea for her father, and the hibiscus sits at the head of the pond and peels the lotus canopy.

From time to time, Jin'er would be naughty and throw the lotus puff at the frog, and the frog thought that some grass-green pest had flown over, and always pounced on it. After Jin'er peeled the lotus canopy, she would hold it to her father and mother as soon as possible, and her father and mother always praised Jin'er for being sensible. Jin'er doesn't like to eat lotus seeds at all, and after feeding her parents, naturally no one grabs fragrant chestnut cakes from her.

When it snows heavily in winter, the most beautiful flowers in the garden are undoubtedly white snow and red plums, and from a distance, the white snow is faintly red and warm, as if the fire is about to melt the snow. However, Jin'er found that her mother's favorite is Snow White Plum.

Frozen three feet, white snow and white plums. From a distance, I can't tell whether it's flowers or snow, and Jin'er doesn't know what to look at.

"Mother, why do you like to watch Baimei? Is it the same reason that I like to watch hibiscus as much as my father? ”

When it comes to white hibiscus, the mother always laughs and giggles on her face, holds Jin'er in her arms, and strokes her daughter's white and tender face with the plush clothes, "Your father likes white hibiscus, that's for other reasons, my mother likes white plum, purely because she likes its flower soul, and there is no same reason." ”

"Flower Soul? What is Flower Soul? ”

"White plum grows in the season of ice and snow, different from the colorful peach blossoms and plum blossoms, snow is like the invisibility of white plum, you can smell the plum fragrance at once, but you can't appreciate the plum blossoms at a glance, you also need to get close to the flower branches in the snowdrift to distinguish, isn't this the white plum valuable, worthy of people to appreciate the place? It's like the people we meet in the sea of people, can you tell at a glance who is the person you want to stay with for the rest of your life? Like Baimei, it can't be recognized at a glance. When you get close to him and get along, you will know if he is a person worthy of your life...... "Jin'er has a lot of mothers, but Jin'er didn't listen to it, she only knew that her mother loved her father very much, and she was using flowers as a metaphor for people."

is only a family of three, Jin'er feels that there is no gap in the love of her parents, but her father's love for her mother is harmonious and beautiful on the surface, not noisy or noisy, but in fact it seems to be a little unsatisfactory.

For example, when my mother happily made a pot of tea for my father, and raised her eyebrows in front of him, my father just took it with a light smile and thanked him politely.

Or, where is there a big hole in Daddy's shirt, he first sewed it by himself wordlessly, and was inadvertently met by his mother to take on needlework, and he would also say a few words about trouble and hard work.

Also, when eating, the mother always calls, the three of the family are neat before the meal, if he is a father, he puts a chicken leg in his daughter's bowl, and the sentence "Let's eat first" will start the meal.

Or, when Jin'er first learned to speak, she followed her father to fish, and caught a total of four big fat fish, and her father took Jin'er's hand, and on the way back, he tested his daughter: "There is a basket of fish today, Daddy ate two, Jin'er ate two, and the fish in the basket are finished, so how many fish are there in the basket?" ”

Jin'er shook her father's hand, and asked angrily, "Why don't you share the fish with your mother?" ”

Daddy couldn't laugh a little, so he changed his words: "There is a basket of fish today, Daddy ate one, A-Niang ate one, Jin'er ate two, and the fish in the basket are finished, so how many fish are there in the basket?" ”

"Humph! I won't tell you it's four fish! ”

……

These daily routines are sometimes a little unattainable, but sometimes they are casual that they don't care too much. When Jin'er was ten years old, she saw that her mother's love for her father was better than her father's love for her mother.

Jin'er felt that it was too early to think about Da Rao at this age, and she couldn't figure it out at all, so let's think about the big cow next door, he was a year older than Jin'er, but it was quite pitiful.

Da Niu's parents quarreled, and sometimes the noise was so loud that it spread to the yard of Jin'er's house, and the movement of smashing pots and pottery bowls was as scary as thunder. Jin'er's father inevitably had to persuade him, so the noise was not so loud.

When there was movement next door, Jin'er was stuck in the corner of the wall, and the cry of the big cow could be heard.

Later, in two or three months, Da Niu's parents divorced, and a golden stepmother entered the back foot of the family, and it was not a big Jin Gui identity, that is, the stepmother had a younger brother or sister of Da Niu in her belly.

"Ah, is your stepmother good to you?" Jin'er took advantage of the potted flowers to sneak next door to see him.

Da Niu has a serious name, and Jin'er won't call him so casually. Their family name is Ni, and the single name of the big cow is "兕". Originally, Jin'er didn't know what the word "兕" meant, but when she turned to the ancient books, she realized this word, which was a good sign.

It is an ancient beast, with a blue-black body and sharp horns on its head, like a rhinoceros, but it cannot be confused with a rhinoceros. But the mother of the Ni family can't get used to this word, and uses the fortune teller as a disguise, which is a discord, and the beast will collide with the fetus, since it looks similar to the cow, the cow is very diligent, and it is an honest animal, so she changed the name of Ah Ji - big cow.

After hearing the origin of this name change, Jin'er rolled her eyes and thought unconvinced, isn't it the justifiable "Erniu" when the child of the Ni family's stepmother is born!

Jin'er has a powerful father, she is not afraid of the expensive Ni family's stepmother, sometimes sitting at the door and seeing the Ni family's stepmother will greet her: "Aunt Ni, is the second cow in your stomach okay?" Then he smiled and asked, "When can you play with us?" ”

The stepmother of the Ni family was often so angry that the heavy makeup on her face was about to fall off, and when she saw Jin'er's father coming, she glared at Jin'er and went back to the house sulkingly.
