Chapter 83: The Feast

The February day is like a child's face, and it changes when it is said. The day was still sunny, but it started to rain in the evening.

The next morning, when Jiang Shu went out, the rain stopped for a while, and it started to fall again near noon.

The spring rain lasted for three days before the sun returned to the earth.

All things are moistened by the spring rains, and in a few days they are full of vitality and rush to grow.

On February 25, Yu Lan held an apricot blossom banquet and sent a post to Jiang Shu.

This apricot blossom banquet only invited the female dependents, it was to take care of nothing, enjoy the flowers, boil tea, talk about the garden, and all the ladies and ladies had a good time.

Tired of shopping, Sun Yijun folded the apricot blossom and played with it in his hand, and asked Yu Lan when he sat down to rest: "Why did you suddenly remember to hold an apricot blossom banquet?"

Yu Lan looked at the ladies and ladies in the garden, curled her lips and smiled: "It's so lonely, it's lively to hold a banquet." ”

She is lively and lively by nature, but she is detained in the Pingxi General's Mansion, and she is accompanied by cold and loneliness every day, and she is about to lose her nature.

Jiang Shu looked at Yu Lan when he heard this, and saw that there was a lingering loneliness and gloom between her eyebrows, as if she was sad and resentful.

She couldn't help but think of the six years she had been in the Jing'an Hou Mansion, and she had also come over like this.

Thankfully, she was out of it. And Yu Lan is still trapped.

Sadly, they couldn't help her, so they could only spend as much time with her as possible.

"Also, these long-tongued women with flamboyant branches are the most suitable for relieving boredom and being funny." Sun Yijun grabbed a handful of melon seeds and gossiped while snorting.

The three of them talked about the anecdotes in Beijing and talked about Shen Changze being scolded by the cane.

"The! I don't cherish the will given to him, and I dare to blatantly resist the will, and the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China is less. Sun Yijun took a sip of tea and grabbed another handful of melon seeds.

Yu Lan snorted lightly: "I am sure I should teach some lessons." ”

"Lord Zhou did this thing really beautifully, but it was also because it was related to you, otherwise he wouldn't be able to bear to take care of this idle matter." Sun Yijun squeezed his eyebrows at Yu Lan.

Jiang Shu, who was peeling oranges, raised his eyes in surprise: "The princess and Lord Zhou are friends?"

She also thought that Zhou Boxu participated in Shen Changze because of Yu Zheng.

"They weren't ordinary friends, they almost ...... back then"

Sun Yijun was quick for a while, and when he reacted, he hurriedly stopped his mouth and looked at Yu Lan with an apologetic face.

Jiang Shu looked at them inexplicably.

Yu Lan's long eyelashes flickered, and he smiled gently: "Lord Zhou used to study with him in the palace, and we grew up together since childhood, so we can be regarded as best friends. ”

Just friends?

So what is the regret and sadness that flashed in her eyes?

Although Jiang Shu was curious, he also knew that there were some things that he couldn't ask. Especially Yu Lan is from the royal family, and many secrets will kill people.

The more you know, the faster you die.

Jiang Shu lowered his eyes and peeled the orange seriously, and didn't ask any more.

The atmosphere was a little delicate for a while, and Sun Yijun suddenly dropped the melon seeds in his hand and said, "Ashu, are you going to the toilet?" We're all in this together. ”

"Huh?" Jiang Shu glanced at the orange in his hand that had just been peeled and had not yet eaten, and wanted to say that she would not go.

But seeing Sun Yijun's expectant eyes, she silently put down the orange and got up.

Yu Lan took it from the plate: "Thank you Ah Shu for peeling the oranges for me." ”

She broke one of them and put it in her mouth, frowning impatiently.

It's so sour, it's sour, and she's in tears.

Jiang Shu looked back and saw that Yu Lan smiled with tears in his eyes: "This orange is sour." ”

The oranges that were paid tribute in the palace, how could it be sour.

"Let her be alone for a while." Sun Yijun pulled Jiang Shu and walked quickly.

Yu Lan looked at their departing backs, and the smile gradually rose, turning into bitterness and swallowing back into his throat.

Jiang Shu and Sun Yijun came back from going to the toilet, and when they passed by the garden rockery, they heard the conversation of several people on the other side.

"The daughter of a businessman dares to reconcile with Jing'anhou, and she really thinks she is a noble girl."

"The eldest princess lifted her up, and even asked her to come to the banquet, I didn't come if I knew she was coming, and the province lost her identity."

"That's not good, in case she gets married again."

A group of people covered their lips and laughed, as if they had heard some very funny joke.

After laughing, someone sneered disdainfully: "It's still a high marriage, I think no one in Shangjing will ask to marry her." ”

Sun Yijun couldn't listen to it anymore, and rushed over in a few steps and said angrily: "You are not afraid of rotten mouths when you chew the root of people's tongues behind your back." ”

The gossiping people were startled, and looked at Sun Yijun who suddenly appeared with a stunned expression.

Sun Yijun looked at their ugly faces and said, "You are beautiful yellow flowers, why haven't you seen the person who asks to marry step through the threshold of your family?" I'm embarrassed to laugh at others here, and worry about whether I can get married. ”

"You, you, you ......" Several people were stepped on by Sun Yijun and were speechless.

Sun Yijun rolled his eyes and snorted coldly: "You, you, you, what are you, no matter how thick a finger of powder is, you can't cover your ugly face, hurry up and find a place to brush two more layers." ”

"Let me hear you chew people's tongues and tell right and wrong, I will take a pen and paper and write down everything you say, find the most powerful storyteller in Shangjing, and keep it so that all of Shangjing will know about your group of long-tongued women, and I will see who would dare to marry."

"What's your business! We didn't talk about you. "Some people can't be angry.

Sun Yijun clasped his hands to his chest and raised his eyebrows slightly: "What's wrong with me being nosy?" Unconvinced. ”

"Forget it, let's go, don't be like her." Several people pushed and pulled each other away.

I can't provoke them to hide.

"You are really good at scolding a group of people by yourself." Jiang Shu walked over with a smile.

Sun Yijun turned his head and glared at her: "Can't you hear them say bad things about you?"

Jiang Shu sighed helplessly: "I heard it, but what they said is the truth, and I can't refute it." ”

"Aren't you rich? Stoned them to death with silver. Sun Yijun was furious.

Jiang Shu was amused by her: "Stoneing people to death is to pay for their lives, they don't deserve it." ”

"They really don't deserve it." Sun Yijun deeply agrees with this.

After the luncheon, Yu Lan ordered two long tables to be set up in the garden, the tables were full of flowers, and the ladies and ladies sat down to arrange flowers.

This is the last item of the apricot blossom feast, and the flowers can be taken home after they are arranged.

Flower arrangement may seem simple, but it is extremely difficult to do.

Jiang Shu and Sun Yijun fiddled for a long time, but they were always unsatisfactory.

And Yu Lan, who has been taught and nurtured by her grandmother in the palace since she was a child, is very handy to do.

Jiang Shu and Sun Yijun simply didn't fiddle around, and concentrated on watching Yu Lan.

Sensing their gaze, Yu Lan said softly: "Come, I'll teach you." ”

Jiang Shu and Sun Yijun stared at Yu Lan's actions, and followed her step by step with the same flowers, but in the end, the three of them inserted different ones.

"No wonder my mother said that flower arrangement is a profound science, and the exact same thing can make us make three appearances." Sun Yijun was a little deflated after the comparison, and threw the flowers in his hand back on the table.

Yu Lan took a closer look at her works and praised: "Flower arrangement can reflect people's character and mood, your flower looks casual and wanton, flamboyant and smart, which is very in line with your temperament." ”

"Really? How I can't see it. Sun Yijun looked left and right, and finally raised his eyes to ask Jiang Shu.

Jiang Shu opened his lips and was about to speak, when suddenly a maid came in a hurry, saying that someone from Jiang Mansion was looking for Jiang Shu in an emergency.
