March 3, Peach Blossom Festival.

On both sides of the Spring River, ten miles of peach blossoms, it is the most popular resort. On the third day of March, almost all the ladies in Shengjing City went out in full gear, strolling in the peach blossom forest, or swimming in the rippling spring river. The peach blossoms on the human face reflect each other beautifully, and even the wind is really drunk.

When the carriage of Lin Yuan'er, the eldest aunt of the Lin family, walked into the gate of Shengjing City, it was the third day of the third month of March.

The years seem to be particularly preferential to her, unwilling to leave traces on her delicate face, her beautiful face is smooth and delicate, in such a warm and intoxicating spring breeze, under such a full of peach blossoms, it looks like only twenty years, the wind is incomparable.

Shengjing, Shengjing.

After 18 years of absence, she finally returned to this place.

Lin Yuan'er, now Mrs. Chen, gently lowered the curtain, blocked the full spring light outside, leaned in the carriage, and slowly closed her beautiful eyes.

"Mother, is this Sheng Jing?" Chen Wanzhi, the eldest girl of the Chen family, stared outside, with a beautiful light in her watery eyes.

"Shh Chen Zhenyi said softly: "Wanzhi, you make a little noise and let your mother rest for a while." ”

Chen Wanzhi moved the corners of her mouth imperceptibly.

As a family, after receiving the letter from Sheng Jing, Mrs. Chen began to pack up eagerly, and almost all the small items that could be moved were packed into boxes. At the beginning, Chen Zhenyi just said that she would be a guest in Beijing and would return to Fuzhou soon; Gradually, Chen Zhenyi announced that they would buy a house in the capital and live in it for a year and a half...... Finally, this little stay. It has been at least three or five years, and the return date is uncertain.

"Brother Qing and Brother Ping want to go to school, this is negotiable. But what about Sister Wan'er? Yes, there are a lot of people in Fuzhou, but which one can compare with Shengjing City? Look at our daughter, with her qualifications, what kind of family can't enter, how can she be buried in a small rural place like Fuzhou! ”

Chen Zhenyi wanted to say that Fuzhou is not a small place in the countryside...... But looking at Lin Yuan'er frowned. As at all times, it is no longer possible to insist on one's own opinions. Besides, there is a son and brother of a family with a head and a face in Fuzhou, which Lin Yuan'er has never seen it, but there is no one who can enter her eyes......

Anyway, she came from the prosperous land of Shengjing. Marrying in Fuzhou and marrying yourself is wronged. Since she wants to take her children back to Shengjing, the Chen family can't afford the expenses in Shengjing, so why should she be unhappy?

After Chen Zhenyi sold the unmanageable property, she sacrificed to her ancestors on the night of the Lantern Festival. Early the next morning, the whole family left.

It's not easy to go out. The dry road is rough and difficult to navigate.

Lin Yuan'er married far away back then, and after coming all the way to Fuzhou, the whole person was tossed out of shape, like a withered dried flower, and was deeply remembered by Chen Zhenyi. Just cherish her a little more.

Now, how could he let her suffer like that again?

Thankfully. In the past ten years, shipping has developed greatly, and even the grain ships in Fuzhou have gone to sea...... So, Chen Zhenyi wrapped up in a small ship, and arrived at Tianjin Port along the way. In Tianjin Port, he stayed for several days according to Lin Yuan'er's intentions, and then slowly entered Shengjing City.

After more than two months of travel, Lin Yuan'er's beauty is barely damaged. This made Chen Zhenyi very satisfied, and felt that this trip was worth the time-consuming and cost-intensive.

In Shengjing City on March 3, even the air is sweet and warm.

Those noble ladies wear different styles of clothes from Fuzhou, even if the clothes are not as good as hers, they naturally have a kind of wealth and reserve. It was a kind of reserve that belonged to this Shengjing City, with a lofty and careless taste, which made Chen Wanzhi squint her eyes and lean back gently.

Born and raised in Fuzhou. Even with her mother's words and deeds, compared with the noble girl of Shengjing, who naturally showed her young and beautiful face outside and talked and laughed freely, Chen Wanzhi still keenly smelled a kind of earthy smell emanating from her body...... This smell made her feel faintly embarrassed.

This embarrassment quickly turned into her pride, so Chen Wanzhi raised her chin slightly, raising her beautiful face without a trace of flaw.

This raised face made her see a person.

That person, standing on top of the high city tower, has the supreme momentum of the sky, making people forget his age and his appearance, but he remembers him all of a sudden.

He glanced at Chen Wan.

Just one look made Chen Wanzhi almost scream! She clenched her hands into fists and shouted in her heart: Who is that? Why is he looking at himself!

The carriage moved forward slowly.

Chen Wanzhi settled down, and when she looked out again, there was no longer that figure on the city tower, as if she had just had an illusion.

"Wanzhi." Lin Yuan'er opened her eyes and said softly, "Just take a look." After staying here, there is a chance to come out and play. Shengjing is no better than Fuzhou, and the girls are all locked up in the backyard and can't see the sky outside. ”

Chen Wanzhi nodded and said softly, "I know." ”

After a pause, she asked again: "Mother, have you played this Peach Blossom Festival many times?" ”

"yes...... Almost every year...... Lin Yuan'er raised her head and looked at the car window, as if she could see the bright and infinite spring light outside the window through the car window, and remembered it suddenly.

Sheng Jing's daughter, who was the most conservative family in the previous dynasty, couldn't help her daughters from going out on March 3. And every girl in Shengjing City, no matter when and where she is, has the best memories of the Peach Blossom Festival in her heart.

That year, she met him in the peach blossom forest by the Spring River.

That year, she looked at him across the peach blossom forest, and her eyes intertwined into the sweetest softness in her heart, which was worth savoring for a lifetime to support her through the unsatisfactory times in her life......

Lin Yuaner also has a memory hidden in her heart.

"Excuse me, is it the Chen family's convoy in Fuzhou?" A voice disturbed Lin Yuan'er, so she sat up straight.

"Yes." Someone in the Chen family's convoy replied.

"Dare to ask, but it's Aunt Lin's house?" The man asked very politely.

Chen Zhenyi nodded to Lin Yuan'er and carefully got out of the carriage. Soon, the sound of him talking to someone came from inside the carriage. It turned out that someone from the Lin Mansion came to greet him.

Because Lin Yuan'er insisted, the Chen family's specific itinerary and return date were not told to the Lin Mansion in advance. And the Lin Mansion was able to send people soon after they entered the city, and it was obvious that they had been keeping an eye on them all along.

"Mother." Chen Wanzhi called Lin Yuan'er softly.

Lin Yuan'er didn't answer her. And Chen Wanzhi didn't pay attention - she didn't seem to know what she was going to say when she called her mother......

With the people of the Lin Mansion leading the way, the speed of the Chen family's convoy was a little faster, as if it had arrived at the Lin Mansion in a short time. At this time, the main gate of the Lin Mansion was wide open, and Lin Shiqing and his wife, with the masters and servants of the Lin family, were at the door.

"Big brother and sister-in-law, what is this?" Such a formation made Chen Zhenyi feel a little frightened: "Deserve it, how can this be deserved?" ”

Lin Shiqing said: "Deserve it." Yuan'er married far away back then, and this time she didn't leave the door. Today, when your family returns to Shengjing, it will be regarded as a ceremony to make up for it. ”

Lin Yuan'er's tears turned red.

Lin Shiqing glanced at her soothingly, and said softly: "Yuan'er, hurry up, father and mother are waiting." ”

Lin Yuan'er nodded abruptly and hurriedly walked inside.

She walked so fast and so quickly, even lifting her skirt in disregard of etiquette as a girl. Chen Zhenyi didn't dare to delay, and hurriedly chased after him.

Of course, Lin Shiqing has to follow.

Leaving a few juniors, led by Mrs. Lin to go inside. Chen Qingzhi and the others all knew Mrs. Lin, and knew that she was the most enlightened and reasonable elder, and their hearts were a little relieved.

This is the time to salute from time to time.

When Mrs. Lin took them to Rongxi Hall, she saw the eldest aunt and grandmother of the Lin family kneeling in front of Mrs. Lin, lying in her arms and crying bitterly. She cried so painfully that Chen Zhenyi knelt there all the time, bowing her head in shame.

"Zhenyi, get up." Old Man Lin sighed slightly, looked at this middle-aged man with an ordinary face, and said, "You took good care of Yuan'er." I didn't mislook at you. ”

"This is what a son-in-law should do, and it is not worthy of praise." Chen Zhenyi was a little nay.

Old Man Lin nodded, looked at Chen Qingzhi and the others, and said, "They all look like good children." ”

Aunt Lin and Grandma Lin cried and forgot their feelings, so Mrs. Lin had to introduce Old Man Lin: "This is Brother Qing, he is fifteen years old this year; This is Sister Wan, who is only fourteen; This is Brother Ping, a year younger than Ieyasu. As you said, they're all good boys. Your eyes are like torches. ”

"Haha."

Mrs. Lin's metaphor made Old Man Lin forget his sadness and stroke his beard and laugh. Then let people give a meeting gift.

Mr. Lin is real, and all he sent was a set of pen and ink plus a thick red envelope.

Second Master Lin and Xiao Li, Lin Shiqi, and Lin Shifei also gave a meeting gift. Next, it was the juniors who greeted each other, and it took a lot of effort.

"Auntie is so young." Lin Minjia couldn't help but praise again. Before this, when they passed by Fuzhou, she had already seen it once and praised it once, but it was not enough.

"She really deserves to be the first beauty in Shengjing back then." Li Yueying nodded, looking at Mrs. Chen's back with envy - even crying, she could cry so beautifully. She's thirty-four or five, right? I don't know how to maintain it......

The first beauty?

Why didn't my father and mother mention it?

Chen Wan's heart moved slightly, and a smile appeared on her face that became more and more beautiful - everyone said that she was born exactly like her mother. Since my mother was the first beauty in Shengjing back then, she will never be bad, right?

It's a pity that my mother married in Fuzhou.

Well, I'm afraid that there is a reason for this marriage...... However, it doesn't matter if she knows this kind of thing or not...... (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendation and monthly passes, and your support is my biggest motivation. )
