Chapter 418: From the time he started to take her to heart, it became different
Xie Yixiao, Rong Ci and the others didn't stay in the courtyard for long, packed up their things, and set off to see the peach blossoms in the back mountain.
On the way, the two walked in front, and the rest were ten paces behind.
Rong Ci saw that Xie Yixiao's face was no different from usual, and he was a little relieved, when he came out of the Changning Marquis Mansion last time, he was about to cry, and he was a little worried that she had wronged the old lady Shanglu.
"Things are going well?"
"Smooth." Passing by a bamboo bush at this time, Xie Yixiao reached out and picked two bamboo leaves, twisted them on his fingers and turned them around, "That old lady Lu has a weakness, she can hold it, she doesn't dare to rob it, and now she doesn't even dare to see Mingjing." ”
Speaking of which, she has lived to the age of Mrs. Lu, and she is not a brainless person, if she doesn't have a ghost in her heart, and she feels that she really can't stand the mirror, and she is pinched by the handle, it is really difficult to deal with.
Rong Ci nodded: "It's good to be able to handle it." ”
Ming Spiegel is not suitable to go back to the Lu Guo Mansion again, although it is said that being the noble daughter of the Lu Guo Mansion is indeed a high status, but she has such a father and stepmother, and there will be no good end when she goes back.
No matter how good the wealth and glory are, it needs to be enjoyed by life.
Xie Yixiao sighed, then shook her head, deciding not to think about these things anymore, she pulled the sleeves of the people around her, and urged him to go faster, "Let's go quickly, I don't know if there is anyone there in the peach forest." ”
"Okay."
The group walked through the path, and when they finally walked through a moon gate, the sight in front of them suddenly opened up, and they looked up at the peach blossoms of the trees.
At this time, it is the season when the peach blossoms are blooming just right, and the first batch of blooms is about to fall flowers, and when the wind blows, there are petals that fall one after another, as if a layer of brocade is spread on the ground.
And these days bloom the most, peach blossoms bloom, dotted with branches, and those that have not yet bloomed are waiting to be released on the branches, like shy little girls.
Raise your eyes to see, the near is the peach forest, the distance is the green mountain, the nearby mountain forest has trees and flowers grow out, the mountain flowers are splendid, the distant mountains are still a lot of hidden in the clouds and smoke, ethereal, as if the fairy mountain is continuous.
Xie Yixiao liked this place very much, feeling that the mountains were green and the water was green, the sky was bright, and he took a breath and felt that the turbidity in his body was exhaled.
The group climbed the hillside, and when Xie Yixiao came, he also asked Lu Chai to take a small bamboo mat, and then spread the bamboo mat on the platform outside the pavilion, and you can sit on the ground.
Xie Yixiao took the suitcase in Mingxin's hand and waved them down: "You guys go play by yourself, don't worry about us." ”
When they drove them away, they sat down on bamboo mats.
Rong Ci raised his eyes to look at the green mountains in the distance and the peach forest in the distance, and closed his eyes, the scenes of the past year here seemed to be in front of him.
At the beginning, he only hoped that she could live a better life, and hoped that she would be safe and sound, but in just one year, they had already decided to be married, and maybe it would not be long before they would get married.
It seems that fate is really fickle, maybe since he began to take her to heart, with expectations, it has become different.
At the beginning, he only hoped that she would be safe and healthy, and later hoped that she could get a good match, marry a good husband, and have no worries for a lifetime, and finally felt that it was not safe to marry her to anyone, and wanted to keep her by his side, marry her, and stay with her for a lifetime.
But he didn't regret it in his heart, and he didn't have any reluctance.
He turned his head to see her open the suitcase.
The box is divided into two layers, the upper layer is placed a compartment wooden box, on which are placed some food, there are melon seeds, preserved fruits, dried fruits, cakes, cakes, and the lower layer is placed a teapot and a few teacups, and a few fruits are also put in.
There are even freshly picked wild fruits from the mountains.
Xie Yixiao put things out, then took out two cups and poured tea, and divided a cup among him, he reached out to take it, but heard her say: "When you were in the temple before, did you ever come here to drink tea?" ”
Rong Ci shook his head: "No." ”
He has been to this place, and he has sat here to see the scenery, but he did not bring tea and food to enjoy the flowers and scenery of Yaxing, perhaps for him, drinking tea at home and drinking tea here is no different.
Xie Yixiao sat side by side with him, eating tea in the middle, looking at the green mountains in the distance and the peach blossoms in the near distance with him, and then she slowly took a sip of tea.
This tea was just brewed when I went out, and it was still hot right now, and it tasted a little hot, so I had to taste it slowly.
Xie Yi smiled: "That's a pity, the first time I came last time, I think it's really good here, if it's not for poor health, you need to dance a song and drink a few glasses of peach blossom wine, so you can take advantage of the scene." ”
"It's a pity that it's a quiet place for Buddhism, it's good for us to come here to enjoy the scenery, and it's naturally not okay to drink."
Rong Ci turned his head to look at her: "Miss Xie can dance?" ”
"No, it won't." Xie Yi shook his head with a smile, "It may be possible to move around while the scene is around, but it won't be the case." ”
The girls in the imperial city rarely learn to dance, even if the girls compete on weekdays, they are all compared to what piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, flower arrangement, pitching pot, juju and pounding pills, will not be compared to what dance.
Nowadays, the daughters are raised elegantly, and they know that they are well-mannered, gentle and virtuous, and generous, and they feel that the girls are twisting around on the stage to show others, which is really indecent, and it is not yet decent, so the girls do not learn to dance.
Xie Yixiao has learned some things, and it is still classical dance, but he is not very good at the stage, so he simply said that he would not be able to.
As she spoke, she reached out and took a piece of peach blossom cake and broke it, half of it was handed to him: "Do you want to eat it?" ”
This peach blossom cake was made by Spiegel this morning, and as soon as it was dawn, she went to pick some peach blossoms and came back, and made peach blossom cakes and peach blossom cakes.
Peach Blossom Cake is a rice cake made by mashing peach blossoms and twisting out peach blossom juice, mixing and dyeing with rice flour, and then putting some sugar on it and steaming it.
This peach blossom cake is different on both sides, one side is a pink rice cake dyed with peach blossom juice, and the other side is a snow-white rice cake, like a white snow, and then cut it into a diamond shape, and when the mirror is packed into a box, two peach blossoms and a few petals are put down, which looks very good.
The peach blossom cake is a bit like the practice of rose flower cake, pickled with sugar, mashed into filling, and finally baked, the appearance is crisp yellow, and when it is pinched open, the petals and sugar water aroma inside are paved up, fragrant and sweet.
Xie Yixiao ate two peach blossom cakes and two peach blossom cakes in the morning, and thought they were delicious, so she couldn't help but want to share them with him.
"Eat." Rong Ci stretched out his hand to take it, and then took a bite, he had long been accustomed to her feeding, and he would eat anything.
But after a long time, she probably saw that he didn't like to eat too sweet, this pastry was slightly sweet and not greasy, and it was just right with tea.
