Chapter 6: Chung Yeung Festival 3

It turned out that Yunxi was in a daze, and she heard Lin's last sentence clearly, otherwise, she would definitely not be so obedient.

After sleeping, there was nothing to do, so I just led Yuanyuan to the garden to play.

It's better to say it's a garden than a vegetable garden. Except for the chrysanthemums, which are planted in a large area, there are not a few flowers, and they are all planted on the side of the road. To be exact, it is the side of the vegetable field, counting back and forth, there are three peonies, three peonies, three plums, and three moon flowers.

Several kinds of flowers and trees are still blooming only in the moon season, one in pink, one white and one in red, and the flower warp is only four or five centimeters in size, but fortunately, the petals are overlapping and overlapping, and it has been very much the prototype of the modern moon season. There should be better varieties, the Ye family planted these two or three plants, but they were planted at random, and there must be better ones in the special garden. I just don't know if there are any flower farmers in this area?

But Yunxi is not afraid, the biggest land problem has been solved, are you afraid of anything else?

Don't have a good breed? Hum! Yunxi gritted his teeth: I don't believe it, others can breed it, I don't believe that I can't figure it out, which sub-breeding theories I have also read books, so I have to try it anyway.

But now it's not about this, but about the seeds on these flowers, the seeds of peony and peony are now a little late, but it's not too late, it should still be planted, and the seeds of the moon season can also be picked now. Time waits for no one, why don't you tell your parents, no matter, there are many benefits to small people, rely on small sales.

When the sun went down to have dinner, Ye Yuan and the two boys came back and brought back a lot of delicious food. Almond paste, rock sugar gourd, fried chestnut, radish cake, osmanthus cake, chongyang cake and molasses puff pastry baked cake, etc., Yunxi has tasted it one by one, rock sugar gourd, fried chestnut needless to say, almond paste is similar to the current almond tea, the taste is very good, the radish cake is also spicy and sweet, and the puff pastry baked cake is even more delicious. In addition to the lack of chili peppers, it is a pity that it is not bad to come to ancient times.

Ye Yuan also brought back a lot of dried seafood, which is said to be a return gift from his aunt's family, and it is really good to see that his aunt's family is really good.

After eating, Yunxi pestered Ye Yuan to plant flowers on a piece of land. Ye Yuan readily agreed: "It just so happens that the persimmon tree in the front yard is about to be cut down, so I'll leave a place for you to plant flowers, but if you want to plant flowers, you have to dig out the roots of the big tree, but it's not difficult." The question is, what flowers are you going to plant? ”

Yunxi replied: "Just plant the peony and peony flowers in the backyard, and there is a moon season, and there are many kinds of seeds on it, and they look ripe." ”

Ye Yuan laughed and said: "Those seeds don't make it, I have planted it a few times before, either it doesn't come out, or it doesn't grow long, and when you plant some nail grass in spring, will purple jasmine work?" ”

Just because you can't grow it doesn't mean I can't grow it, but I can't say it, Yunxi turned on the coquettish mode: "Try it, just try, daddy......"

I also fought hard to plant a flower. also glanced at Yun Kai again and again, Yun Kai was also clever, stepped forward and pulled Ye Yuan's sleeve and shouted: "Daddy, I want to play too, let's try, let's try." ”

Ye Yuan laughed: "Okay, okay, Dad must have people cut off the roots of the tree, and clear out the place for our little lady Xiao Langjun to show off his skills." But what? I have one condition. ”

Yes, no wonder I agreed so quickly, I was waiting here.

Yunkai hurriedly asked, "What conditions?" ”

Ye Yuan Zhengse said: "You two are older, after the Double Ninth Festival, you have to follow me to start reading and reading, okay?" ”

It's good to read and read, I've thought about it for a long time, Yunxi doesn't want to be a little illiterate. Yunkai was quite reluctant, so he was naturally suppressed by Yunxi.

Yunxi asked Ye Yuan again if there were any special flower farmers nearby, and he was very disappointed, no, there were flowers sold in the Daimyo's mansion, and Ye Yuan said that it would depend on their performance before deciding whether to take them or not.

A good night's sleep after a meal, you don't have to go into details. Let's say that it is the day of the Double Ninth Festival in a blink of an eye.

Early in the morning, when the sky was about to dawn, Lin put a piece of Chongyang cake on Yunxi's forehead, and wished: "Everything is high, everything is high." Yunxi also recited it twice, and the ceremony was completed.

Yunxi took down the Chongyang cake, stuffed it in his mouth, and ate it.

Without a doubt, the most important thing to do during the Chung Yeung Festival is to ascend.

Nine is the number of yang, the ninth Double Ninth Festival in early September, the folk believe that it is a fierce day, people will encounter various disasters on this day, because they want to leave home to climb high to avoid disasters, to insert dogwood, drink chrysanthemum wine to drive away evil spirits.

It is said that Chongyang cake was first invented by people in the plain area, because there is no height to climb, so eat Chongyang cake instead of climbing, because "cake" and "high" have the same sound, but also on the Chongyang cake paper flag to replace the dogwood, its intention is still to avoid disasters and avoid disasters.

So the family finished breakfast, set off with wine utensils and food boxes, and went for a picnic.

The target, the mountain behind the Ye family's compound - Stone Ridge.

There are no tall trees on the stone ridge, but the shrubs are also red and yellow, but they are also colorful, and the autumn is full of joy. But the beauty of these little shrubs is no more beautiful than that of wild chrysanthemums. This barren mountainous area is a blessed land of wild chrysanthemums, which seem to grow exceptionally well because of the abundant sunshine, and cover the slopes one by one. The flowers are blooming, and the bloom is vigorous and in full swing.

The Chung Yeung Festival in late autumn, slightly cool, the already clean air is mixed with the fragrance of wild chrysanthemums, refreshing, the sky is blue, there is no trace of variegation, only three or five white clouds are leisurely floating, if there is a recliner lying on it, it is better.

In addition to the wild chrysanthemums, there is another thing that has attracted Yunxi's attention, that is, the stones on the hillside, with black, gray-black as the base, with white as the veins, the veins are meandering, some like water ripples, and some like ink paintings.

Yunxi discussed with Ye Yuan: "Daddy, this stone is good-looking, let's move a few pieces, put it in the front yard, it looks good." ”

Ye Yuan doted on the child, and he didn't object, and said with a smile: "This stone is good-looking, but it sinks very much, but it's not easy to get down the mountain, wait for us to go down the mountain, and find a small one at the foot of the mountain." ”

In fact, Yunxi had already taken a good look at a piece, and when he heard this, he pulled Ye Yuan and walked back: "There was a good piece just now, Daddy, let's go back and see." ”

Lin didn't dare to be interested in the stone and didn't want to go back, so he and Yun Jin led the servants with food boxes and wine utensils and other supplies to go up.

Walking back only a dozen meters, Yunxi pointed out to Ye Yuan and the two boys, only to see a stone in the grass on the side of the road, no more than one meter high, no more than one meter wide, only slightly longer, more than two meters.

Yun Yunkai circled around the stone twice, but he didn't see anything good. Yun Kai smiled and said, "Sister, why can't I see anything good, isn't it just a stone?" There are many more beautiful stones on the mountain than this. Yunxiao also said: "That's right, sister, I'm a stupid big guy when I look at the stone." ”

Yunxi smiled and said, "It's not nice to lie down, so what if you stand up this stone?" ”

Without waiting for his brothers to look at it again, Ye Yuan sighed loudly: "Wonderful, wonderful." ”

"Come on, come on, let's stand it up and take a closer look." Ye Yuan beckoned and motioned for someone to move with him. The stone was so heavy that several people worked together, and their faces were red before it stood up.

When I stood up and looked at it again, it was really different. The stone stands up like a high mountain, the gray-black bottom is like a mountain tree, its white veins are like a waterfall and a flowing spring, the stone is crystal clear, like a landscape of ink painting.

Yunxiao sighed: "My sister is really amazing, this stone is not surprising when it is lying down, but I didn't expect it to stand up completely different." Our brother has been here on this mountain for a long time, and such a good stone has been discovered by you. ”

Yun Kai also looked at Yunxi with admiration: "Sister is the best!" ”

Ye Yuan laughed, "Yunxi, this is a discerning stone." ”

The maid Yuanyuan and the others looked at Yunxi with adoring eyes. She was proud in her heart, and said with a small face: "As the saying goes, 'there is never a lack of beauty in life, but a lack of eyes to find beauty'." I'm also accidental, accidental. ”

"There is never a lack of beauty in life, but there is a lack of eyes to find it.'" Wonderful, wonderful. An unfamiliar voice came from behind Ye Ying.

Yunxi turned his head and saw a group of people walking up the mountain road, led by a couple in their thirties, leading a boy and followed by several servants.

Ye Yuan greeted him and bowed his hand: "It turned out that Mr. Zhou was here, and he missed the distance, how is Mr. late?" Mrs. Zhou is well. Xiao Langjun has grown so big, he is really heroic and quite fatherly. ”

Yunxiao also hurriedly stepped forward to pay respects, and it turned out that the person who came was Zhou Yue, the gentleman in Yunxiao's private school.

This Mr. Zhou, who is nearly seven feet tall, wears an ice blue robe and a moon-white belt. The jet-black hair is combed in a neat bun on the top of the head, and a simple white hosta is inserted. The sword eyebrows and starry eyes are like a jade tree in the wind, and the indescribable elegance is chic. Turning his head to look at Ye Yuan again, the dark gray muslin robe, gentle and calm, dignified appearance, his father is not bad, but he is homely.

That Mrs. Zhou is also beautiful with clear eyebrows, a good face, and only a wooden moire phoenix hairpin is inserted on her black sideburns, simple and elegant, but she is generous, and her eyes are smiling, and she is even more gentle and amiable.

That little boy, around ten years old, has been greeting with the Yunxiao brothers, obviously Yunxiao's classmates, there is no doubt that this little boy inherited the beauty of his parents, and he looks good at a young age.

Mr. Zhou smiled apologetically: "Uninvited guest, Brother Ye is responsible, Xiao'er used to hear Ling Langjun say that there are many wild chrysanthemums in the mountains behind your house, and his mother has not slept well recently, Lang Zhong suggested that he use wild chrysanthemums as pillows, smell them at night, and sleep better, so he took the liberty to disturb them." ”

Ye Yuan said with a smile: "Yes, the fragrance of chrysanthemums is fresh, nourishing the liver and eyes, and it is a good material for making pillows, so I will let the maids pick it, and it will not take long to get it."

"Zhou Li, you take our family with you." Mr. Zhou commanded, and asked Ye Yuan: "I don't know what beauty Ling Qianjin has discovered, can you let me take a look?" ”

Ye Yuan and the others hurriedly led them to see the strange stone.
