Chapter 178: Looking at the lantern in the night



I had to agree: "What my aunt said is that Sister Mei is naturally a fairy and blessed." ”

Aunt Sun was naturally very happy when she heard this, but I felt a little indescribable in my heart, like regret, like happiness, in short, everything was safe, and it was a creation.

After a few days, I heard that the marriage between the wonderful girl and the young master on Tuesday was decided, although it was a blessing, but on the day of the decision, firecrackers rang out, gongs and drums were noisy, and it was also very beautiful.

I went to see the excitement, but I saw that the wonderful girl's room was covered with neat paper, and the handwriting was still flowing on it.

The wonderful girl saw me come over to read the calligraphy, and said with a smile: 'Why, does Meicai also like calligraphy?' ”

I hurriedly said: "I don't know much about Mei Cai, I just think this font is beautiful, I don't know who wrote it?" ”

The wonderful girl smiled and said, "In my sister's boudoir, it was naturally written by my sister." ”

Could it be that although the wonderful sister forgot that Lu Gongzi, she never forgot the calligraphy that Lu Gongzi taught her?

The wonderful girl paused, and said with a smile: "Speaking of which, there is an allusion to these words, which is funny, so you should listen to the story!" “

I hurriedly asked, "I don't know what the allusion is?" ”

The wonderful girl said: "These words were originally learned by my sister in a dream!" In the dream, I can always see that the four treasures of the study seem to have become elves, the brush itself stands up, the rice paper is laid by itself, the inkstone is ground by itself, the brush is full of it, and these two lines of words are written, my sister is in a dream, but she is not afraid, she woke up, she only feels that the scene in the dream is vivid, the font is really beautiful, I can't help but learn to copy, I don't want to learn more and more day by day, but the words next to it have not been dreamed, faint these two lines. ”

The words in those two lines read, "The mountains have trees and trees, and the trees have branches, and the heart is happy, and the king does not know." ”

At this time, Aunt Sun came upstairs, only saying that today was a busy day, and asked Sister Miao to go downstairs too, so I also came out, but when I saw that the young master was wearing a gold satin robe on Tuesday, it was also strange.

I secretly asked, "Sister Miao, what do you think of this Tuesday Young Master?" ”

The wonderful girl replied, "Isn't it best to live this life in peace and stability?" ”

I looked at the honest face of the young master on Tuesday, and thought to myself, I'm just afraid that the door is right, and it is also a truth that has been passed down for thousands of years!

I don't know if that Lu Gongzi will occasionally come out of the marquee, like the princess who asked him to look at the wonderful girl from afar?

----Finish----

In the summer, the miscellaneous fish is delicious, I often go to the Rouge River with the little third son to fish, the big one can be sold, and the small passenger flow is left at the bottom of the basket, and I go home to boil the miscellaneous fish pot to eat.

The Rouge River is rich in small crucian carp, because the shape and size are like ears of wheat, they are called ears of wheat, the ears of wheat are delicate and tender, soft as boneless, and they are boiled together with other miscellaneous small fish that cannot be named, and the taste is very delicious.

Small fish caught, can not be in a hurry to kill, can be raised first, wait for the small fish to spit clean dirt, wash with water, squeeze the intestines, be careful that the bitter gall is not broken, the small fish is cooked, marinated with fine salt, cooking wine, pepper, plus ginger slices, green onions to fish. Kamiriku

When you wait for the small fish to taste, you can start making small dumplings with trash fish.

The small dumplings can be kneaded with the new cornmeal of the year, slightly add some soybean noodles, boiling water and noodles, stir them into a cloud flocculation shape with chopsticks, knead them into a smooth dough with skillful hands, and knead them into a suitable size.

If there are conditions in the miscellaneous fish pot, it is best to use a large iron pot burned with firewood, put the pot on the shelf, pour oil under star anise, Sichuan pepper, ginger slices, and green onion segments to fry the fragrance, first fry the small fish slightly with oil, and then put the soy sauce, vinegar, sugar, refined salt, minced garlic, and boil the broth, you can slowly boil it over low heat, and when boiling the miscellaneous fish, the tortilla will be pasted on the iron pot casually, cover the pot, and wait until the fish is cooked, the cake will be just cooked, and the two will not be delayed.

When the juice is dried up and the fragrance is overflowing, open the lid of the pot, but see that the fish is squeezed into the juice and become a bright sauce.

Take off the tortillas, golden and crispy, the entrance is fragrant, the side that sticks to the iron pot is even more crispy and sweet, tear off a piece of corn tortillas stained with fish soup, the fresh fragrance is incomparable, sandwich a small fish into the mouth, the skin has long been crispy and rotten, the entrance is just a fresh taste, and the fish bones do not need to be spit out.

This kind of food has always been a common meal for small families like us, although it is not a big plate, but we all love to eat, and it is a unique home-cooked meal in summer.

My little third son and I had a full meal today, taking advantage of the fact that the summer has not yet passed, I made an appointment to go fishing again next time, and after eating, I quickly picked up the food box and sent the snacks set for today to the Yanyu Pavilion.

Yanyu Pavilion is very lively today, think to come these days business is good, Mr. Mo sent people to add a lot of fresh furniture in Yanyu Pavilion, and it is a mahogany cabinet inlaid with luodian, and it is a large porcelain vase that can be seen in the light, as well as all kinds of popular furnishings, for a time it is more magnificent, flowers.

When I entered the main entrance, I saw that in the corridor, there were many lanterns hanging in full bloom, and those lanterns were made very exquisitely one by one, some depicted people, some depicted landscapes, and some were smiling maids, as if the lantern festival on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month was opened in advance, so I couldn't help but stop and watch.

I saw a young man still hanging a lantern on it, he was holding a yellow paper lantern with the pattern of the eight immortals crossing the sea, and was hanging in the middle, the characters on the painting were more expressive than one another, but they seemed to be alive, the more I looked at it, the more I loved to see, so I simply stood under the lantern and took a closer look.

When the man saw me, he smiled and said, "Does this girl like lanterns?" ”

I nodded embarrassedly: "It's the first time I've seen such a beautiful lantern, and I can't help but look at it more, and teach this brother to laugh!" ”

The man hung the lantern with his slender fingers, slid down the tree neatly, and said with a smile: "Thank you for this girl's compliment, I really dare not take it." ”

I hurriedly asked, "So, this lantern was made by my brother himself?" My brother is really good at crafting. ”

The man said very modestly: "I don't have the ability to do anything else, it's just a mess of food." ”

I saw that this man was only about twenty years old, with a long body and a jade body, very delicate, wearing a burlap dress, and under the high raised cuffs was a pair of slender and white hands.

I hurriedly said, "My brother is too modest!" I have to go to see the lively lantern festival every year, and I have never seen such a beautiful lamp. "The county lord Sanshufu

The man smiled heartily, "Really? The girl is a rare confidant, dare to ask the girl is the maid here? ”

I smiled and said, "Don't dare to be, I'm from a nearby dim sum shop." ”

After chatting a few words, I suddenly remembered that the time was not early, so I hurriedly said: "Oh, I'm here to deliver food, and I have to hurry over now." ”

The man hurriedly said: "Ah, it's not good to delay, girl, please!" ”

So I confessed my guilt and went to the Smoke and Rain Pavilion first.

When she enters the Smoke and Rain Pavilion and sees a few maids hanging lanterns around the railing, Fluttershy laughs, "Look, it's not that young man again!" ”

Xin'er smiled and said: "This young man is good-looking, but I don't know if he is married." ”

Fluttershy replies, "I've heard that my family is poor, and it seems that they haven't been married yet!" ”

"Alas, Ren is a good talent, and he is also worried about money, so it is better to find a shop with an only daughter to make a fortune!" Lamei smiled.

"Saying that Cao Cao Cao has arrived, isn't this a daughter who wants to be recruited!" Fluttershy sees me and makes fun of me.

I laughed and said, "Sisters, I'm joking with Mei Cai again." This lantern-making brother is really a good craft! ”

Fluttershy laughs, "Isn't it! Looking at this craft, I guess how I will be able to survive in the future. ”

"Later?" Xin'er smiled: "If you can get through it, you can get out early, why wait until later?" ”

Fluttershy smiled: "You don't know, in this Qiqi family, there is a sick sister who needs to be taken care of, for many years, I don't know how much medicine money will cost, don't look at the good skin of the child, such conditions in the family, there is no girl to come to the door, it is naturally reasonable, when the door comes to the door, his sister is married, probably he can turn over!" ”

Xin'er asked, "Fluttershy, you know that you're familiar, but how do you know the seven chaffs?" ”

Fluttershy replied, "Yes, he's our neighbor on Purple Jade Hairpin Street, who grew up in a small place, and in his name, or the fortune teller next door said that his fate was bumpy, and he had to add two stones to touch him, and he was given the word for two stones." Now it seems that the fortune teller really said exactly what he said. ”

When Lamei heard this, she frowned and said: "Look at these seven chaff also seem to be around twenty, his sister is only afraid of being older, this is not married, isn't she an old girl!" ”

Xiao De sighed: "Isn't it, who is hardworking and smart, even if he is hardworking and smart, he has to look at his fate, and it depends on his own creation." ”

"That kind of sister is also a burden. I'm afraid it's inconvenient to get involved. The maids shook their heads: "It's a pity that this young man is such a good talent." ”

I looked at the seven chicks, and I felt sympathy.

When I had finished delivering the snacks, I came out with the basket and looked at the lanterns as I walked, when suddenly a voice came out from the shade of the tree and called, "Girl! I'll be waiting for you for a while! "The black-bellied president regards his wife as a treasure

I turned around, only to see the seven chaff from under the shade of the tree came out, holding a small lotus lantern in his hand: "A little colored paper at hand, scribbled a lotus lantern, I heard that the girl is going home to walk at night, see that you have no lantern in your hand, just afraid that it will be inconvenient, if the girl does not dislike it, this lotus lantern is good for you?" It's not in vain to be a confidant of mine who appreciates lanterns. ”

Unexpectedly, after I finished delivering the snacks, the seven spears had not gone back, and actually made me a lantern, which couldn't help but make me feel a wave of warmth in my heart, and I hurriedly thanked him and said: "Brother Seven Spears is really too polite!" Thank you very much, but the plum vegetables don't have any gifts, and I'm embarrassed. ”

The seven chaff smiled heartily and said, "Girl's words, a lantern, what is worth it, if it is not too abrupt, take this lantern and enjoy it!" After all, it is difficult to find a confidant, and it can be regarded as fate. ”

I hurriedly thanked again, took the lantern, took a closer look, only to see the petals delicate, the bottom of the support green, the stamens of the candles, flashing a soft light, beautiful, can compete with the real lotus in the pond, the more you look at it, the more you like it, it really teaches people to love it.

I happily drove home with the lantern under the watchful eyes of the seven clams.

The light of the lantern warmly shone on the bluestone pavement, guiding me in the direction of home, which was really reassuring.

In the past few days, the seven clams have always made lanterns and hung lanterns in the Yanyu Pavilion, probably Mr. Mo has invested a lot of money to decorate the night of the Yanyu Pavilion more beautifully.

We were feasted on the lanterns, and we were fascinated by the ingenious lanterns.

I had a little friendship with the seven chaff, met again, and took the snacks at home to return the lantern, but the seven chaff refused, so he accepted it, but never saw him eat, so he asked: "I saw my brother put it away, but I never saw my brother taste it, but I can't get used to the taste?" Would it be good to change the plum vegetables to a different flavor next time? ”

Qiling replied with a smile: "It's not that I don't like to eat it, it's such a good thing, I want to take it home and give it to my sister to taste." ”

As soon as I heard this, I was busy giving him some more, urging him to taste it, and he ate half of it shyly, and the rest was still cherished in the bag.

I really can't help him. His sister has such a younger brother, which is probably a great blessing in life!

After delivering snacks this day, I hadn't gone downstairs yet, but I saw Valle holding her chin and looking at the night scene, and sighed slightly, so she stepped forward to say hello and asked, "Why is Sister Valve'er sighing, but what's not happy today?" ”

Valle sighed again, stroked the ends of her hair, pointed downstairs and said: "That little wrongdoer, maybe he fell in love with his sister's talent, and came to send lanterns every day, my sister understood in her heart that it was not to look at my sister and relieve the pain of lovesickness, but with his background, how could my sister enter the door!" I have to be sorry for his infatuation. ”

As soon as I heard the word "lantern", I knew that she was talking about Qiqi, and I couldn't help but laugh again.

But when I looked at it again, I was dumbfounded, but I saw a white lantern hanging out of thin air behind the thin figure of the seven dragons, as if there was an invisible person beating him behind him.

I couldn't help rubbing my eyes, but it was true, the lantern hung firmly behind him, swaying gently, and the miserable whiteness was very eye-catching in the vast night.

I couldn't help but point to the lantern and ask Valve: "Sister, look, what's going on with the lantern behind Brother Qiling?" ”
