Chapter 108: Grass and Trees Deep (2)
Several people slowly moved forward with the crowd, and Liu's mother and others went to the front early to buy incense candles, and when they caught them, they handed them over.
Shu Yao looked at the position of the so-called god of flowers, it turned out to be a bottle of blooming peony flowers, and there were several vegetarian dishes of dried and fresh fruits in front of it, and an incense burner was placed in the middle for them to insert incense.
After worshipping the god of flowers, Yu Yao pulled her to enjoy the red again. Several people talked and laughed together, took small silver scissors and cut all kinds of flowers, hung them on the branches, and tied colorful silk to the branches. The tree had long been surrounded by people, and the low branches were hung with paper-cuts and colored silk, which did not look very beautiful from a distance, but it was very funny.
In addition to selling flowers, there are also flower cakes by the river. Shu Yao followed Yu Yao and a few people along the river, admiring the flowers while also watching what the mothers-in-law were selling. The flower cake sold here is made of rice, the petals are picked, added to the rice and mashed, and then steamed on the pot, and the color is far less bright than just picked after steaming.
The servants bought a few pieces and distributed them among the young ladies, but they didn't dare to eat more, but they just tasted a little new. Walking forward again, someone tied a colorful windmill, and as soon as the wind blew, the whole windmill turned away, which was very beautiful. There are also people who take a large string of bamboo baskets out to sell, and the bamboo baskets are delicately woven and are not big or small in their hands. Shu Yao asked Liu's mother to buy a few and come back, and each person had a basket, one for picking wild vegetables for a while, and the other for Shu Ya to bring back some flowers.
The grass had grown quite tall, and it was soft under her feet, and Shu Yao didn't want to step on the grass, for fear that the grass juice would dye her embroidered shoes decorated with fine pearls, so she jumped and walked. I suddenly heard the sound of people in the distance, and when I looked up, it turned out to be a tall flower boat on the river, and there was faint drum music on the flower boat, and there were dancing girls dancing on it.
The flower boat is a veritable flower boat, and the boats are lined with flowers all around, which is very suitable for the scene. Shu Jiao was looking over there, and vaguely felt that there was a sight falling on him, and when he looked over, he saw a person sitting on a high platform on the opposite bank, it was Shen Junzhuo.
My heart, which was still depressed, suddenly became happy, and I saw that the trees were greener and the flowers were more colorful. It's just that his eyes didn't stay on him for long, and he was pulled up by the people around him and went inside. Before leaving, he looked back at her again.
She thought about it, who was so bold as to pull the person with the four big words "death to the close" clearly written on his face, and always felt that the figure seemed to have seen it. After thinking about it again, it suddenly dawned on me that it was today's national uncle!
I think it's very interesting in my heart, obviously they are-for-tat rivals in the court, but when they get to the court, are they so close?
She was still looking at the high platform over there, and Mother Liu, who was standing behind her, suddenly pulled her sleeve twice, and when she looked over, she saw Mother Liu's brows furrowed and her face was resentful. knew that she had also seen Shen Junzhuo, which meant that she was dissatisfied with them like this. Anyway, the person was no longer visible, so Shu Miao retracted his gaze stupidly, and obediently took a few steps back to look at the flowers around him.
The voice passed with the flower boat, Yu Yao probed her neck and looked at it for a while, there were too many onlookers, and she could only see the stern of the flower boat, so she felt that it was not interesting, and when she turned her head and saw that Shu Yao was not interested in the flower boat, she pulled her and said:
"Let's go pick wild vegetables! So I don't expect to eat, but I want to pick it. ”
Shu Yao nodded, and while following Yu Yao to the riverbank, he frequently looked back at the high platform.
After picking wild vegetables, the tender artemisia flowed juice and colored the hands of several people, and several people laughed and went to the river to wash their hands. For a while, Yu Yao forgot to bring a handkerchief, so Shu Yao handed over her handkerchief.
Yu Yao wiped her hands, shook the already wet handkerchief, saw a red plum embroidered on the corner of the handkerchief, and said with a smile:
"I'll give it back to you when I go back and wash it!"
Shu Yao hurriedly waved his hand and said no, and said:
"What is a handkerchief worth, if you don't dislike it, just give it to you."
Yu Yao smiled:
"It's okay, I'll ask Hongxing to send you a few new handkerchiefs when I go back, and you can also look at my female red."
A few people still talked and laughed, and sent people to buy many flowers that were not at home, and most of the day passed.
After walking for a day, they were very tired, and the Yuyao sisters got into the carriage and began to beat their legs and arms, but they were very happy in their hearts, after all, the older they are, the less time they can go out. In addition, several of them are concubines, and Mrs. Jiang doesn't even bother to take her eldest daughter out of the house, let alone them. I don't know where I will marry in the future, and there are only a few days left in such a relaxed life.
