On the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival in the first year of Chengde, there is a day when the public is beautiful, the wind is clear and the clouds are light and the galaxy is splendid, a round of mirrors hangs high in the sky, the toad light is overflowing, and the cold shadow of the court is illuminated, and the golden chrysanthemum is graceful. At this time, the custom has not yet given the Mid-Autumn Festival the content of family reunion, but the allusion of Chang'e running to the moon is associated with this festival, and many literati and writers borrow the canon of Chang'e to express the sadness of lovers being separated by fate, which is to gradually have the connotation of Valentine's Day in later generations on this day.

If it has been knotted, the husband and wife will often worship the moon and admire the moon on this day, and those who have the conditions rent the downstream garden early, hold the lamp and snuggle under the moon, and talk to each other about their affection with their ears and temples, or play the piano and make seers, or give each other poems, after all, it is the affection of the mountains and the sea, and there is even no lack of outstanding literary talents, who do not care about the love poems they make are copied and circulated, openly show their love and beauty, and envy the single dogs of those who have not been loved.

It is the common people, there is no such elegance, and because of the curfew restrictions, it is impossible to go out to play like the Lantern Festival, and will also enjoy the moon in the courtyard of their own eaves, and sing the love poems composed by the talents in previous years, regardless of the trivialities of oil, salt, firewood and rice, and regardless of the difficulty of food, clothing, and clothing, singing and dancing under the moon, is to make the fairy in the moon red-abandoned the husband and son in order to seek eternal life, and now the figure is only a shadow to repent, although we are mortals, we do not enjoy wealth, but happy and happy, even the gods will envy.

There are many men and women who have made a marriage but have not yet made a big gift, although it is inconvenient to have a private meeting on this day, they may as well give each other tokens to express their affection, parents do not care about private teaching and receiving at all, but if they know that the other party has no expression, they will feel guilty: are you dissatisfied with this marriage? !

He Zhan is about to welcome Yuan's door in person three days later, the bridegroom needs to prepare a lot of trivialities, this Mid-Autumn Festival is naturally inconvenient to stay in Shangqingguan, Shao Guang is still living here, is to prepare a token early, he is a poor sour, no ability to collect rare treasures, pondered for a long time, in the end or a jade wall worn close to the body for many years with a poem as a trustee sent to Wei Xiangfu, get a return gift is also a small poem, plus an embroidered handkerchief, happy to treasure it, not because he fell in love with Wei Yan at first sight, At this time, he didn't even see his fiancée's eyebrows clearly, but because he thought that the marriage was decided, of course he had to love his future wife.

Eleven Niang learned about this from the maid who was temporarily assigned to serve in the guest house, and expressed her sorrow, in her eyes, Shao Guang was such a talented and beautiful jade, but he was deceived and used by the big-hearted Wei Yan, which is really a pity.

Although she returned to Shangqingguan, she still hasn't had a chance to meet with He Zhan, who is so busy, of course it is impossible to wake up Shao Guang alone, if she is replaced by Yin Shen, you don't have to pay attention to the form, only Shao Guang is simple and straightforward, not a cardamom girl can be persuaded by Eleven Niang.

And what bothered Eleven Niang even more was that she actually got a Mid-Autumn Festival gift.

Because of the special connotation of this festival, ordinary relationships can not be presumptuous gifts, but all gifts have the meaning of showing love, and what Eleven Niang received was of course a gift from Xiao Xiaojiu who mustered up enough courage.

Eleven Niang and Xiao Xiaojiu do not have a marriage contract, such a public show of love will not be severely reprimanded, in the end there is a violation of etiquette and the existence of the law will attract criticism, so Xiao Xiaojiu has also gone through a cover-up, it is transferred to Liu Jiu Niang's hand, the gift is not as direct as a personal device or a love letter, it is a famous painting, Eleven Niang heard that Xiao Xiaojiu entrusted Liu Xiaojiu to hand it over, and immediately refused to accept it solemnly, but Liu Xiaojiu did not want to be this person again: "If the eleventh sister does not accept it, it is good to tell Xiao Jiu in person, if I return it, Xiao Jiu thought I was getting in the way! ”

Eleven Niang went home that day just to go through the motions, met Mrs. Tai and Xiao's family, and went to Shangqingguan the next day, and had no chance to meet Xiao Xiaojiu, so she planned to directly let Mrs. Tai or Xiao return it, by the way, she made it clear that she had no "intentions" for Xiao Xiaojiu, and thought that Mrs. Tai was not Xiao Xiaojiu's direct parent, and it would be more or less embarrassing for Xiao Xiaojiu's child to come forward with a layer of separation, and it would be more secure for Xiao Xiaojiu to come forward.

How do you know that Xiao Shi listened to Shi Niang's resignation, but his attitude was very complicated: "Xiao Jiu has been close to you since childhood, and there are many gifts and letters, Yi Yi doesn't have to care so much, this painting is made by a famous artist, Xiao Jiu also knows Yi Yi's preferences, so he collected it as a gift, just to catch up with the Moon Festival." ”

It turned out to be that he wanted to make Eleven Niang "laugh and accept", so that Eleven Niang would not be troubled.

She knew that Xiao Shi was out of good intentions, obviously optimistic that she and Xiao Jiu would be able to achieve marriage, and Shi Niang also knew that Xiao Jiu had both talent and virtue, according to her conditions at this time, she should be Gao Pan, if she was really Liu Shi Niang and had no memory of Wu Dan, of course she would be grateful to Xiao Jiu for her intention and Xiao Shi to fulfill her kindness, but this is not the case.

She can't just want to be a good woman of a big clan with peace of mind, and she has always treated Xiao Jiu as a "junior", and she can't imagine becoming a husband and wife with her "nephews" in the future, it's too funny.

Of course, this reason is also difficult to say in the face of the Xiao family, if it is too resolute, it will inevitably not make the Xiao family have the misunderstanding that the eyes are too high and do not know how to lift, and the matter has come to this point, it is even more impossible to alarm Mrs. Wei to come forward, because in this way, the embarrassed person is not only Xiao Xiaojiu.

I had to pretend to be confused first, whether it was Xiao Xiaojiu or the Xiao family, even Xiao Jiu's mother was wishful thinking, Xiao Jiu's father could not accept her as a daughter-in-law, and when Xiao Jiu reached the age to discuss marriage, the second elder of the Xiao family and Uncle Xiao would naturally object, and the matter could only be settled.

Don't look at Shi Niang's ability to strategize in many matters, except for the relationship between men and women, she does not have much experience, in fact, although she was married to a wife in her previous life, she is really still in love.

For Lu Li, it was more of a confidant, and at first she just thought that if she could tie the knot, she might be able to harmonize the piano, but later she didn't feel too much regret, and even thought that the love of a confidant was more precious than the love of husband and wife.

For He Yan, it is the responsibility and mission after the fait accompli, since He Yan gives love, then she will repay the peach, conscientiously do a good job as the princess and the queen, and become a husband and master, and later suffered betrayal, and ended up with the destruction of the family, resentment is really resentful, but as the truth gradually surfaces, this resentment also disappears, and for that person, only contempt is a stranger.

She has never been obsessed with the love between men and women, and she has never asked each other to be persistent, but she knows that there is a persistent Xiao Xiaojiu in this life, which makes her feel at a loss, and she doesn't know how to deal with it.

In her previous life, Pei Wudan deeply thought that obsessing with the word love was to ask for trouble, and in this life, Liu Yishui would not be distracted by the triviality of love, she could not give Xiao Xiaojiu any response, the only love between the two was to use the Xiao family as a link and could barely be called a "brother and sister" friendship, but of course she would not be disgusted with Xiao Xiaojiu, many troubles, just had to live up, and I didn't know how to minimize the damage to the child.

And on the day of the Mid-Autumn Festival, the most melancholy thing for Eleven Niang is Yingyang Zhenren.

Without He Zhan by his side, Shao Guang, a foreign man, of course, could not accompany the real person to drink and remove, although the real person has a lot of friends, but because of this special festival, of course, it is inconvenient to come to Shangqingguan to accompany him, even if he comes, the real person will not receive it, only Shi Niang knows how sad and sad this day is for the real person, but it is not related to being single for a long time, the real person has not done anything remorseful and guilty, she chose to be single not because of obsession, but ......

The only love of this life is the day he died, and since then heaven and man have been separated forever, and their own well-being has become despair.

When that person tied the knot with another woman, Yingyang was not grief-stricken, but the farewell on the Mid-Autumn Festival many years ago caused the real person to be lonely and lonely from now on.

It's because of the only heart-to-heart person in this world, who is forever separated, and even the sound of chatting with self-comfort has been completely cut off.

On this day, facing the sky and the full moon, the stars are bright, real people can only get drunk, those dusty past, but unforgettable beauty, grief and regret, and even confiding is in vain, silently drunk, unable to cry in their sleep, just because no matter how many tears, no one in the world can understand.

What's the use of weeping when the confidant is gone?

Everyone in the world is transparent and open-minded, how many people know the bitterness of real people?

It's not because of unwillingness, and she never asks for resentment, she loves that person, so she can't bear to let that person face a difficult choice, and she was tolerant and generous at the beginning, even if she never interacts again, even if she never marries for the rest of her life.

It's not because you want to redeem it, causing that person to feel guilty, but because you don't want to violate your sincerity, since you can't forget it, then you can't be perfunctory.

But he still died, and when he was in his prime, he died so early, and the only parting words were "ashamed".

After many years, I still can't release my grief.

So this drunkenness is inevitable, Eleven Niang saw the real person getting drunk in the sound of the piano, and there was no dissuasion, all she could do was to accompany her silently, just like Wu Dan back then.
