CHAPTER XXII

As dusk approached, I went to Qingshan to ask for a bag of fried chrysanthemum melon seeds, and took them to the forest to the west of the dining hall, where there was a corridor of nine songs. When eating in the dining hall at noon, he said with Mo Yan and Cheng Ying that they would meet together in the evening. The sea of trees on both sides of the road swayed in the wind, and the sound was endless, and it was now June, and such a cool breeze really brought a lot of refreshment.

In the forest, it is a corridor of ancient wood agarwood built in a roundabout way according to the mountain, and Mo Yan has set up a small wooden table at the bend of the corridor to drink, seeing me coming, he asked me why it took so long, I replied vaguely, but there is some resentment in my heart, this green mountain is now getting more and more stingy, in the past, he had something to do there, there has always been no half a word, and now he has to listen to him for a long time, what 'I don't have many melon seeds, but also leave it for Xiao Yu to eat', and' This is Xiao Yute's favorite chrysanthemum melon seeds, don't take them all', and 'Do you know how hard it is to get these chrysanthemum melon seeds at this time? I fried them with the dried daisies left over from last year......

"What is this?" There was a low wooden bucket resting on the table, and there seemed to be a lot of ice cubes in it. On a hot night, the ice is steaming. Senior Brother Chengying, who was sitting crookedly on the side, took out an amber cup from the barrel and was sipping it carefully.

"Come and have a drink. Mo Yan poured a cup and handed it to me. "This wine was specially brought to us by Xingshui when he came back from the West Sea this time, the taste is fruity, very light, I think it is the most suitable for you to drink so little. Mo Yan took out the wine from the low wooden barrel and poured a glass for Ah Jin, "Have you ever drunk this cold wine before?"

I shook my head and said no, the life of these two senior brothers really makes me like it, I took the wine glass and took a sip, it was really cool!

Cheng Ying glanced at Mo Yan with disdain, and his clear face had a hint of banter, "I know that you have always been thick-skinned, but I didn't know that you could be so thick, this wine was obviously secretly brought by you from Xingshui." You can take one pot or two pots, and you will carry two jars with me. ”

Mo Yan leaned back, leaned back on the bamboo and rattan woven chair, and shook his fan lazily, "Isn't it not nice to say, besides, don't I also care about your reputation," his eyebrows raised slightly, and he smiled a few times after taking a sip of water wine on his thin lips, "Don't talk about the side, this wine is moved today." Today, the three of us drank both jars of wine, and then threw these two big jars back into the sea, and one destroyed the corpse, even if Xingshui suspected, there was no evidence. ”

I saw that the smile on the corner of his lips was dazzling, his posture was lazy and with a natural grace, and I admired Mo Yan's methods in my heart, so I threw a look of admiration at him. I took another sip of fruit wine, it was not spicy, it was mellow and sweet, and it was cold and refreshing, it was really delicious! "It's delicious. I licked my lips and complimented.

"I'm right, right? This wine is unique to Xihai, and every nine days of grand events, Xihai will always present this wine to show his heart. Mo Yan danced at me while drinking.

"Ah Jin, you rarely drink alcohol, so you should drink more slowly. Although this is fruit wine, the strength of the wine is not much different from those spirits. "I don't forget to remind Ah Jin, who is drinking well. "Also, this cold wine is really too cold, I'm afraid your stomach is a little unbearable. ”

"Ah Jin, don't listen to him, as a man, you should drink more heroically. Mo Yan pouted and looked at Chengying.

"She's a woman. ”

Mo Yan: "...... I forgot she was a woman. ”

Me: "......"

Promise: "......"

.

I peeled the melon seeds and asked Mo Yan, "Is Senior Brother Xingshui as stingy as you said, I think he is quite good, shouldn't you deliberately smear him in order to obey his wine?" ”

"Am I like that?" Mo Yan rolled his eyes at me while knocking on the melon seeds.

"I think you're alike. ”

“......”

Cheng Ying smiled, took over and said, "More than a hundred years ago, Senior Brother Xingshui was infatuated with a little clam essence, and when chasing her, he gave a very valuable chain with a lot of money, and the little clam essence also came from, and then somehow, the two of them talked about it, and the little clam spirit shouted to Senior Brother Xingshui, 'I'm just fed up with you stingy people, this is the chain you gave me before, take it!' Senior Brother Xingshui reached out and took the chain and said, "Where's the box?"

I shook my head, and then laughed with Mo Yan holding my stomach.

.

There are many wisteria hooks and coils, climbing railings and frames on the cloister of ancient wooden construction, and now it is in the middle of summer in June, and the purple spikes in early summer are no longer overhanging, but they are also full of thick leaves, and the pods are abundant, and the growth is excellent. I remember that in the early summer, when I was here with Qingshan to cool off, I also picked a lot of wisteria flowers together, and Qingshan was very virtuous and skillful to make some purple basket cakes and purple basket cakes, and Brother Xiao Yu was very surprised that I didn't go to get a plate. Aoyama knew that I never ate it, but for so many years, he never understood why I never ate purple rice cakes......

When I was a child, I was in the palace, and the craftsmen in the palace also planted a lot of wisteria flowers on the pavilion in the back garden...... I was very young at that time, and I can't remember my mother's face anymore, but I have a good memory of my tongue, and I can still vaguely remember how sweet and soft the purple cake my mother made for me. So I don't want to eat the purple rice cake made by other people anymore, so that my tongue will always remember that taste, not to be masked, not to be forgotten.

Since I was sensible, I no longer talked about my mother, not because I didn't want to...... It's that I think too much, and because I think too much, I don't dare to let myself miss it.

"Ah Jin, why are you crying?" Mo Yan looked at me with a glass of wine, a little surprised. I was also surprised to see him ask me like this, and I raised my hand to touch my face, and sure enough, it was wet. I stared at the Mizusawa at my fingertips.

"Didn't you say that you should drink it slowly, this fruit wine tastes light and delicious, but you can't drink it left and right like you drink tea on weekdays, and you will feel uncomfortable when the stamina comes up. Cheng Ying looked at me and babbled.

Mo Yan looked at her slightly drunken face, and her eyes were full of sliding water, as if she had indeed drunk too much, and echoed, "Don't forget, even if this is fruit wine, it is also a treasure of the West Sea, and I am afraid that the stamina is not small." Seeing that she raised her sleeves and wiped the corners of her eyes casually, she smiled at him, "What's the matter if you're drunk, it's rare to encounter such a good wine, if you don't drink it, you won't be able to resist the hard work you brought from Senior Brother Xingshui." ”

Mo Yan: "......"

Cheng Ying couldn't help but smile and said, "It's okay, tomorrow morning's class is late, it's okay for you to sleep lazy." ”

So, the three of us ate all the wine in the cool evening breeze, and when we said goodbye, Mo Yan didn't forget to carry away the two empty wine jars, estimating that he was really going to throw the jars in the sea behind him, and asked me if I wanted to help me back, I lay on the table and waved my hand to Mo Yan, "The night breeze here is cool, and it is good to wake up the wine." ”

Cheng Ying saw her take out a duck egg-sized night pearl from her sleeve pocket for lighting, he was stunned, and recognized that this was the last time he played a few games with A Jin and lost to A Jin, he couldn't help but smile slightly bitterly, and knew that the obstacles in and out of the mountains were the safest, so he pulled Mo Yan back to rest with confidence.

When I said that, I was really dizzy, and I'm afraid I won't even be able to walk well like this. It doesn't matter if you are so drunk in front of you, and now you will ask someone to help me back, which is really a bit embarrassing, and I have always refused to admit defeat in my mouth, so I sent them to go first, and I lay down here first to slow down.

Originally, I was expecting to rest for a while to ease up, but when the strength of the wine came up, it was really uncomfortable, and now my heart burned uncomfortably, so I took the night pearl and prepared to go back to the bed and cover my head to sleep.

I walked for a long time with the night pearl and didn't walk back, and I saw a piece of grass in front of me, and I was really tired, so I thought about lying down for a while, but I didn't know when I fell asleep.

.

On the upper floor of the heavy eaves hall across the lake from this turf, Xiaolian leaned on the wooden fence and watched the girl in white holding a night pearl and walked around, and after a long time, she didn't know where she was going, and she was still confused, but she was lying on the turf and sleeping.

The white robe rolled out of the air with a bright moon breeze in the air, and gently fell beside her, and the smell of wine was very strong! Seeing her brows twisted, her face seemed to be a little uncomfortable. I'm afraid I've drunk a lot of wine. There was a little anger in his eyes, and he wrung his brows, put one hand on his knees, and the other passed through his ribs, and picked her up, and found an idle room in the upper part of the temple and threw her on the bed.

He stood beside the bed, and was about to turn away. Suddenly, he paused again, waved his hand and cast a spell to relieve her of alcohol.

.

When I first opened my eyes, I was still a little dazed, and after a while, I remembered that I had drunk too much yesterday, but I was not uncomfortable, but I was very refreshed, and I was very happy that I had such a good amount of alcohol.

.

When I sat at the head of the bed, I felt that something was not quite right, and when I bent down to put on my shoes, I felt that something was not quite right. The cupboard at the head of the bed was covered with a soft coral tablecloth, and there was a bottle of golden lotus flowers on it! I felt even more wrong! On the small wooden cabinet at the head of my bed, there was only a vase made of bamboo tubes, in which were inserted three or five hollyhocks that I had picked from near Erli Lake at the foot of the mountain.

I looked at this spacious room, and sighed in my heart, this is not my room! At that moment, my heart couldn't help but tremble a few times, and I hesitated to push open the door, and saw the narrow corridor in front of the door, and there was a row of white marble pillars standing at the twists and turns of the corridor, and the lower half of the pillar was wrapped in the radial section of the dragon wood, and the orchids carved on it bloomed charmingly among the white marble pillars, and at a glance, the entire corridor wall was flashing with the unique golden light points on the dragon wood, and the cyan gauze curtain at the entrance of the porch was swaying with the wind.

Stretched out his head to look at the half-moon lake under the house, turned around and looked at the heavy eaves hall, and his heart trembled a few times. How can I rest here?
