Chapter 28: Mid-Autumn Festival

When Mu Yunyi said this, Huaxi remembered what she should have done, and apologized to Yunyi, "...... I forgot about it in the past few days, and I will send it over in two days. ”

Yun Yi knew that she had sent someone out in the garden to match someone, and vaguely guessed a few points, seeing that she didn't want to say more, she didn't ask again, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, my brother mentioned it two days ago." I happened to run into you today, so I asked. ”

The two of them walked all the way to a trail with a small laurel grove beside it. At this time, the flowers bloom just right, the yellow and white flowers are clustered among the green leaves, and it seems to be a green cloud dressed in brocade from a distance, fragrant and fragrant, and the fragrance floats outside the clouds.

Yun Yi said in a low voice: "It's the Mid-Autumn Festival again in a blink of an eye." The osmanthus bloomed again. ”

"Hmm!" Huaxi nodded and feigned, thinking in her head to ask the cloves to come and pick some back to make incense.

"In previous years, there was a lantern festival in the capital on the fifteenth day, and the old lady would allow us to go out for an hour to see, this year it is estimated that we will not be able to get out, hey......" Yun Yi looked at the laurel tree and was distracted, and her fluttering voice was mixed with a faint melancholy, and it seemed to hide endless lingering thoughts.

Huaxi glanced at Yun Yi curiously and didn't dare to say anything.

For a long time, Yun Yi didn't move, Huaxi had to stand next to him, sighing in his heart, seeing things and thinking about people won't see the moon in the sky, right?

I don't know which maid coughed behind her, Yun Yi came back to her senses and smiled apologetically, "Look at my old problem, I became crazy when I saw the wood rhinoceros blooming, but it made my sister laugh." ”

"Where? Anyway, I have to be free today, and it's not bad to accompany my sister to enjoy the flowers. What's more, I have also committed my old problem, and I am thinking about how to steal flowers and make incense. ”

Yunyi felt that Huaxi was considerate and quipped: "Okay, you are getting bolder and bolder, dare to eat alone?" Now I know, see how you gag me? ”

Huaxi Fufu, "Hehe, look at my sister also likes wood rhinos, and when the incense is ready, I will send someone to Xiaofeng Garden with the incense medicine for the third brother." ”

Afterwards, the two laughed and returned to their respective residences without mentioning it.

The next day, Huaxi selected an embroidery for a boy holding a carp and sent it to Wang's mother, and the makeup gifts prepared by the other girls were also delivered. Yun Yi sent a pair of Hetian jade pendants, Yun Lin gave two red and blue gem gilt butterfly hairpins, Yun Xin sent a pair of jade earrings, and Yun Ning sent a pair of gold and jade bracelets.

On the fourteenth, Mu Fu sent the wedding gift of Xiao Wu and the makeup of the girls to the Xiao family.

Fifteenth, the weather is fine.

Although Mufu is not as lively as in previous years, it is still necessary to symbolically worship the moon. According to Dahua's custom, on August 15, all those who are over the age of 12, regardless of gender, wear adult clothes to worship the moon. Therefore, on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, the people of the Mu family gathered in Lanyue Tower.

When Huaxi arrived, Yunyi had already arrived, and was sitting and talking with the eldest grandmother Zhao and the second grandmother Feng in the current mansion.

Zhao is two years younger than his eldest son Mu Xiuwen, nineteen this year, is the niece of the Xiao clan, the niece of the Xiao family's uncle's wife Zhao, and his maiden father is the prefect of Hangzhou. Naturally, no one dares to mess with such a background in the Mu family, and he is also hearty and generous in his words and deeds, unlike other official ladies.

The second grandmother, Feng, and the eldest son Mu Xiucheng were in the same year and were also 18 years old. The ancestor of the family is a Beijing official, but it is a pity that the family is in the middle. Because his mother was a distant relative of the Xiao family, Mu Tianhe returned to Beijing and found a relationship with the Xiao family, and was shrewd and capable to win the eyes of the Xiao family, and later the Xiao family made the decision to marry her daughter to Mu Xiucheng.

Zhao Shi saw Huaxi first and beckoned: "Miss Huaxi is here, sit here, just now I was talking about you with the second grandmother and the fourth girl." ”

Huaxi greeted the three of them and sat down next to Yunyi.

As soon as Hua Xi sat down, Feng Shi spoke: "Doesn't this mean that Cao Cao Cao has arrived." We were just saying that you made incense. There is a rare incense in the birthday gift given to Princess Luoxi in the house, which is very chic, and the princess likes it very much, and now it has spread all over the capital, and all the mansions are asking everywhere which one made it. It's also thanks to your temperament that you don't like to compete, otherwise where would it be your turn to get Xiao Jiajin's incense recipe. ”

When Zhao heard this, he didn't argue with Feng, and said to Huaxi apologetically: "Huaxi, don't go to your heart." The Xiao family didn't do this authentically, and I had a quarrel with my aunt about it...... But it has happened, and it can't be undone. There are a lot of sisters, and I will find two rare things to apologize for my sister for my aunt. ”

Most of the inexplicable battles between these women are motivated by jealousy or self-interest.

At a glance, the Feng family and the Zhao family are of the same age, with the same appearance, they are not big beauties but they are not bad, but their temperament is not half a star. The Zhao family is generous, and now they all help their mother-in-law Yin's housekeeper. And the Feng family spoke softly, and then listened to this, they were not all criticizing the Xiao family, not talking about the Zhao family. Speaking like this, it shows the spirit of a small family. Zhao did not compete with her, but apologized generously, and at first glance he was a transparent and clever person. This person was brought up differently.

Huaxi didn't want to get involved in the big house, so she excused herself: "What did my sister-in-law say?" Why should you be polite to your own family. It's just Zhang Fangzi, the Queen Mother can use it well, and whoever gives it is not a sacrifice. Since the old marquis, the Mu family has done errands for the emperor, and they have done a lot of loyal and filial piety, how can they talk about it everywhere. Sister-in-law, don't say anything more about apologies, it's too outward. If the sister-in-law can't get over it, wait for when Huaxi will see the good one, and then ask the sister-in-law for it. ”

Zhao listened comfortably, and said with a smile: "Hehe, that dare is good." If you see what's good, just say it. ”

Feng Shi was not convinced, and was about to say more, but was interrupted by Yun Yi. Feeling bored, Feng glanced at Zhao and drank tea by himself.

After a while, people arrived one after another. Then, Mu Jizhong, Jixiao, and Jiren led Xiuwen, Xiucheng, and Xiuyuan in, worshiped the old lady, and everyone entered the table.

After the banquet, Mu Jizhong, the new Marquis of Zhenyuan, led the male dependents to incense the old marquis's spiritual seat.

Then, back to Lanyue Tower, the Phnom Penh Eight Immortals Table had been set up in the courtyard.

On the left are fire pomegranates, purple pears, six pink peaches, and large watermelons with jade skin and red soil opened into lotus petals with steel knives, and on the right are large red dates, persimmons, edamame, and chestnuts, surrounded by a plate of moon cakes in the shape of finished characters.

The bright moon leans against the building, and the clear light drags the ground.

Mu Jizhong led the male dependents to worship first, and then the old lady led the female dependents to worship. After the ceremony, everyone climbed high to admire the moon again, and the men and women sat in separate rooms.

Everyone laughed for a while, and the old lady said that she was tired and went back to rest first.

Probably the moon is too beautiful, and the people who are chattering in their ears are a group of women who are talking about the shortcomings of the East and West families, Huaxi is really bored, and the old lady left for a while, and she also excused herself to leave.

Huaxi was not in a hurry to return to Qixia Garden, and walked around the yard with red willows. Unconsciously walked to the laurel forest passing by during the day, and walked two steps closer on a whim to smell the flowers.

I didn't want someone to suddenly burst out of the woods and almost hit her.
