114 Mid-Autumn Festival
I don't want things to go surprisingly well, I think it's because Mrs. has been soft in receiving gifts these days...... The farewell of the original girls and the meeting ceremony of the new girls are all valuable, but the key is the girl's words.
The girl said that she was just accepting the girl into the Guanju Hall, but unlike other girls, she was generally pampered, and she was only allowed to sit in on the lectures on weekdays, and she was not allowed to enter the main room. As for the tuition fees...... It is hard to do miscellaneous work with only a few people in the Guan Ju Pavilion, and in the early summer, they have to take on the position of miscellaneous labor during non-teaching hours, but there is no monthly rule, and the right is used as tuition. So Akari is just a handyman in the Guan Ju Pavilion, and it will not affect the reputation of the Guan Ju Pavilion. As a person in the Guanju Pavilion, the food and accommodation are in the Guanju Pavilion.
This arrangement is very reasonable, and Madame cannot say anything. So when she rushed to the Guan Ju Pavilion to announce the decision on the girl's orders, the grandmothers were shocked but all convinced. In early summer, his eyes lit up, and then he bowed deeply to the ground......
Guan Ju Pavilion accepted civilian women for the first time, which is also a big deal, and the other is related to Pujia Garden, which can be described as a major event in a big event, and now the emperor is well known.
The matter of Pujiayuan coming to dig the corner of the wall was somehow known by Du Mizhen, and first led people to Yanran Pavilion to ask for the guilt, and it was the first time in Cheng Mansion to make such a big move, which made the whole house both gloating and trembling, because Du Mizhen quickly checked all the gentlemen in Guan Ju Pavilion, and Li Yan was particularly careful, but found nothing. After learning that Mr. Zhong was indeed united to defend the dignity of Guan Ju Pavilion and resolutely resist the coercion and inducement of external forces, Du Mizhen sent Du Yingzi to take people to Pu Jia Yuan to reason and bring evidence...... A letter attempting to corrupt Mr. Geyi's conscience with a hundred taels of silver.
Du Yingzi's temperament, voice, and momentum won't make this matter jump? As a result, the reputation of Pujiayuan was discredited, and the reputation of Guan Ju Pavilion rose to become a leader again.
The only thing Cheng Xueyan feels inappropriate is that this matter puts her on the cusp, although it seems to be righteous and loyal, but it is obviously a character who is not pleasing to both sides, especially such a betrayal of Pujiayuan, who hired her sincerely, it is inevitable that she will be suspected of being a villain. But outsiders didn't know that as soon as Du Mizhen entered the door that day, he let Youcui smoothly take out the letter from the drawer of the relief ivory mirror frame...... This made her suspect for a long time that Bi Tong was secretly informing, and later Bi Tong sobbed and explained that she was just telling Miao Tong about it......
Pushing away from Miaotong's clue, she would naturally tell Cheng Xueman to know, and then Tang Fanrou...... Tang Fanrou and Du Mizhen have always been at odds with each other, could it be her? Of course, when mentioning this matter, it is difficult to guarantee that no one else will be present, such as Pan'er, Pan'er will talk about it as a new thing......
She thought that her head was too big, but she was never sure who was the one with ulterior motives, but she took this opportunity to teach Bitong a truth by the way...... To make something truly a secret, never mention it to a second person.
One thing after another, making people too busy to take care of themselves. After being woken up by the continuous sound of firecrackers in the morning, Fang learned that the Mid-Autumn Festival had arrived at Bitong's prompt.
Mid-Autumn Festival, the day of family reunion, I used to only know that I ate moon cakes and admired the moon on this day, but I didn't want to have the custom of setting off firecrackers.
At the mention of firecrackers, Bi Tong's eyes flickered, her face was indistinguishable, and she only spoke: "Madam said that according to the custom, I will go to Xihu Lake tonight to enjoy the moon, so that the girl can prepare in advance." ”
Cheng Xueyan didn't care about her sleepy eyes, she just closed her eyes again with a "hmm".
She's going back to the dream she just had.
She had a dream, a dream of Ling Su. It seemed to be in Ganlu Temple, and it seemed to be in the market, and she didn't know how the two scenes were converted, anyway, he was holding her hand and walking slowly all the way. The scenery is beautiful, there are a lot of people, but they are all vague. Somehow it was squeezed out. She anxiously searched for him everywhere, but saw him stretching out his hand to her among thousands of people. She smiled and hurried over to him. But someone always rushed to her and bumped into her, and she staggered, but she saw that the hand was always stretched out to her. So she continued to stagger over...... Closer, closer, she also stretched out her hand, and the moment her fingertips were about to touch her fingertips, there was a sudden explosion in her ears......
It's the sound of firecrackers.
Firecrackers are still being fired sporadically, interspersed with drumming.
Isn't it just a Mid-Autumn Festival, like an opening celebration?
She covered her head, desperate to relive the dream, just a little, just a little bit closer to being together...... Although it is a dream, although I know that it is pure naivety to deceive myself with a dream, I still can't help but reminisce about the warmth in it.
Unconsciously, the bustle seemed to be much farther away.
She poked her head out, only to find that it was Bi Tong who had pulled the hollow sliding door of the terrace shut.
"What are you doing?"
This sudden question made Bi Tong shudder, and she hurriedly turned around: "Oh, I'm afraid that the girl won't be able to sleep well......"
"Forget it," she sat up from the bed in frustration, and surrounded herself with the cloud quilt, "open the sliding door, and suffocate ......"
Bitong hesitated.
"What's wrong with you?"
Bi Tong was another agitator, as if she had just heard it, and hurriedly pushed the sliding door open, so the firecracker drum music rushed into her ears again.
"I'd like to see which one doesn't stop this morning!"
She strode towards the terrace with the quilt on, Bitong couldn't stop it, and it was not easy to stop it, so she just stood aside and watched in fear.
In the first glow, it seemed that a red cloud had fallen on the street not far away, still moving slowly.
She stared at it for a while: "It turns out that someone is getting married, August 15, it is indeed a good day......"
Then I couldn't help but look at the willow tree with a little yellow leaves...... The moon is on the willow tops, and people are about after dusk......
When he turned around, he saw a fleeting worry in Bitong's eyes, and immediately smiled with a strong spirit: "What's the matter, silly girl, it's weird today?" ”
This girl must have thought that she would be waiting for news from Ling Su on such a festival, but Ling Su ...... It's been a long time since I heard from you.
Bi Tong stared at her for a while, and suddenly retracted her gaze uncomfortably: "The girl doesn't sleep anymore?" ”
"What are you sleeping on when it's so noisy?" She pretended to be relaxed: "Didn't you go to the lake at night?" Help me see, what is the right thing to wear? ”
Bi Tong stood on the terrace and stared at the moving red cloud.
Cheng Xueyan only thought that she was stupid again. When this girl is older, she can't hold her heart, and it seems that she really has to pay attention to finding a suitable person for her.
Since the opening of the selection, Cheng Fu has been troubled, and Cheng Xueyan has no thoughts, so she didn't buy new clothes. There is a pale ink epiphany blooming at the hem of the snow-white dress, which is in line with the meaning of the beauty under the moon.
The day didn't seem to be interesting, the house was just busy decorating the decorations, and the moon cakes were escorted to each room. Cheng Xueyan has never liked to eat moon cakes, and when she broke it, she only saw meat, vegetarian, five kernels, fruits, pepper and salt and other colorful fillings, and she felt even more bored, and she couldn't bear Bitong's constant persuasion to "respond to the solar terms", so she barely took a bite, then frowned and put it on the table, so Bitong looked at her worriedly.
In order to stop her cranky thoughts, she had to swallow the mooncakes like chewing wax.
This day was very strange, she only felt that Bitong kept peeking at her, but when she looked over, she saw that people were either busy or in a daze.
This is how time slipped to unitary time.
Such a festive season is bound to share a reunion in Bicui Hall.
The two sides of the Zhu Door of the Bicui Hall are hung with strings of colorful lanterns, which are as many as several zhang, and from a distance they look like two jewelry necklaces are dazzling, and the breeze blows, gently fluttering, and it seems that the tassels are broken and flashing. Only when you look closely can you find that the shapes are different, there are fruits, birds and beasts, fish and insects, but they are all written with the words "celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival". The workmanship is simple, the bamboo strips are tied, the colored paper is pasted, the rope is tied to the bamboo pole, and the tall tree is on the eaves to "erect the Mid-Autumn Festival". And under the eaves, the small lamp with the size of the wine cup is built into the shape of a jade rabbit, the stars are shining, and it is gratifying.
Probably because of this festivity, or maybe the snail is particularly delicious, Ogura Peng shouted to be able to see things clearly at night like a cat, everyone only cared about teasing him, so today's reunion dinner went very smoothly, Cheng Zhunhuai and his son did not disagree with each other, Du Yingzi did not carry a gun and a stick to play right and wrong, if it weren't for Qin Gulan's eyes from time to time that seemed to be smiling and smiling, she really thought that she was dreaming at the moment.
It's not normal, it's definitely not normal! It's so happy that it always feels like something is missing, as if everyone has discussed putting on a good show for her, and then suddenly it is difficult to hit her off guard when she is defenseless. can turn to laugh at himself, such a full moon night to enjoy such a reunion family banquet, does it have to make chickens and dogs jump to make people feel at ease? So who is abnormal?
After the banquet, Cheng Xueyao immediately went to the lake, but Cheng Zhunhuai said that he was thirsty and sleepy after drinking, so he asked the ladies to go to the lake and enjoy the moon in Duxiu Mountain together when they came back. He said this every year, but once he fell asleep, he refused to get up, so the phrase "Duxiu Mountain and Admire the Moon" caused everyone to laugh as soon as he came out.
Cheng Cangyi felt that it was very inconvenient to travel with a group of women, so he stayed for the same reason.
So Cheng Fu and his daughters and Mr. Guan Juguan only took Cheng Cangpeng, a minor man, to Xihu.
On the shore of Xihu Lake, tourists are weaving, and on Xihu Lake, cruise ships are like shuttles.
In order to avoid ostentation, Cheng Fu chooses a cruise ship without official signs every year.
According to Du Mizhen's meaning, with the financial resources of the Cheng Mansion, it is completely possible to have a private painting boat, but Cheng Zhunhuai thinks that it is very unnecessary, because most of the lake tours are only once a year, and the female dependents in the mansion are not suitable for showing their heads on weekdays, and it is a waste to have a boat to be repaired and taken care of.
See, the richer you are, the more you will be budget-conscious.
So this year as usual rented a similar painting boat, a few days earlier to decorate the stop, now, the boat on the color silk whisking, yarn lanterns, with the slow movement of the boat, the yarn lantern swayed, the light and shadow hit the color on the colored silk, and pulled the color into all kinds of ethereal smoke with the ripples on the water surface layer by layer swing away. The sound of the water coming from time to time came from the stern of the boat, which infiltrated a bit of tranquility into this lively Mid-Autumn Festival night.
