Although the Great Witch was busy with the sacrifices of the country, the King of Wu gave the Great Witch a monthly example, and the Great Witch did not need to engage in chores to obtain a small amount of money, so the Great Witch had more leisure than when she was in the village, and had more time to study her own work.

On the third day of March, the princes who were in charge of various important matters such as defense and agriculture outside the capital returned to the capital to pay respects. The major witches were invited by the major ladies to the mansion to teach personal rituals of sacrifice, but they were too busy to meet.

Gongzi Yin went to Qingfenyuan to invite Lin Yu. Gongzi Huo's mother, Concubine Jiang, invited the cuckoo to the harem.

Concubine Gui asked for advice on how to place sacrifices, etc., and the cuckoo explained them one by one. Concubine Gui left the cuckoo to eat, and the cuckoo was inconvenient to refuse. After the meal, when rinsing and eating tea, Prince Qia came to visit his mother. The cuckoo resigned, and the prince sent the cuckoo out of the palace, and the harem was still some way away from the carriage stop.

Childe thanked him and apologized for adding to the already busy Great Witch.

The cuckoo only said lightly: "No need. This is a matter for the shrine maiden. ”

Childe said: "I especially remember the tune that the girl played during the competition, which was very good. I wanted to give the girl a full score, but because the other judges rated it too low, if I gave the highest score, it would be removed, and I couldn't help the girl. I think the girl should be at the top of the list, or tied with Miss Lam. ”

Du Juan glanced at Gongzi Hui and said, "Yu'er deserves it." ”

Childe replied, "That's nature." ”

As he spoke, he went to the carriage, and Gongzi helped the cuckoo into the carriage and drove himself. The cuckoo looked at the son's dress, but he was more plain than the other sons.

The cuckoo returned to Qingfenyuan, and Lin Yu had just returned.

Lin Yu asked Du Juan: "Juan Er went to Gongzi Hui's mansion?"

Du Juan replied: "I went to the Zigong Palace where Concubine Gui lived to meet Gongzi Hui, and he sent me back to Qingfen Garden." He asked Lin Yu again: "Are you busy?"

Lin Yu said: "It's okay, Gongzi Yin asked about some matters to pay tribute to his mother. Childe Yin asked me to say hello on his behalf. ”

Cuckoo smiled and asked, "It's funny." Why did Childe Yin ask me how I am?"

Lin Yu replied: "Gongzi Yin asked me if I was used to living in Qingfenyuan, and if I needed anything, just tell him." I tell you that I am close to you, as long as I live with you, it will be fine anywhere. Gongzi Yin then knew that you and I had a very close relationship. ”

Du Juan said: "Since Gongzi Yin asks me hello, you will thank him for his concern on my behalf." Du Juan remembered something again, and said, "Gongzi Hui told me that the judges of the piano test had a low opinion of me, and he thought I deserved a full score." ”

Lin Yu smiled: "Of course, Gongzi Hui is a bosom friend. ”

Du Juan looked at Lin Yu's smile and said, "It's just that Gongzi Huo said that what does this past mean? I play mine, and what the listener thinks is beyond my reach." ”

Lin Yu said: "Gongzi Hui should appreciate the music you played." ”

The cuckoo only shook his head slightly.

On March 3, the ritual of sacrificing the dead is over. When the great witch had a little free time, she went to the hill to pick fresh vetch. Picking roses has become the joy of the people of Duyi.

Gongzifang didn't know why so many people went out of the city with their children and daughters, but at this time, he saw Du Juan and Lin Yu walking in front of them with bamboo baskets on their backs. Gongzi Fang rushed up and asked, "What are the girls doing here?"

The cuckoo squinted and said, "Picking roses." ”

Gongzi Fang said, "Why?"

Lin Yu replied: "Wei Cai is delicious, and the young leaves are the best, and the elders will not taste good after that." ”

Gongzifang wanted to go along, carrying the bamboo baskets of the cuckoo and Lin Yu on his shoulders. Gongzi Fang asked questions indiscriminately, and returned at dusk. Gongzi Fang said that he didn't know how to cook Wei Cai, so he decided to go to Qingfenyuan to taste this delicacy another day, so he said goodbye.

Lin Yu and the cuckoo washed the vetch, put it in boiling water, picked it up after a while, and dried it in cold water.

Lin Yu smiled and said to Du Juan: "Juan'er." ”

Du Juan noticed that Lin Yu's tone was different, and asked, "Hey, what's wrong?"

Lin Yu was even happier and said, "Gongzi Fang called you like this?"

The cuckoo ignored her, and hurriedly took care of Wei Cai in his hand, and said, "He called my name like this when he picked me up in Yiyi Village last time. ”

Lin Yu's face leaned closer and said, "Gongzi Fang has a cheerful temperament. ”

The cuckoo turned his face away and said, "Yu'er can say what she wants to say, it's so awkward." ”

Lin Yu only smiled: "Juan Er doesn't seem to take it to heart. ”

The cuckoo was puzzled: "What do you put in your heart?"

Lin Yu smiled but did not answer.
