Covered bridge wine shop, stone alleys, slightly drunk years, intoxicating breeze, here is born with a comfortable and ethereal rhyme.

The canopy boat was unhurriedly moving in the water, Shen Qingdai and Shen Xiuran were called by their parents to wait for the third uncle's family at the ferry early in the morning, there are many people like them, all standing at the ferry waiting for their relatives to go home, in a year, there are not many days to reunite as a family, Qingming is one of them.

Shen Qingdai kicked the stones on the side of the road boredly, and said to Shen Xiuran, who was always calm on the side: "Brother, why don't you say that the third uncle's family hasn't come yet!

Shen Xiuran was dressed in a azure robe, with a handsome appearance, a tall posture, and good manners, without the slightest impatience due to not being able to wait for someone for a long time, and smiled and said with relief: "It's coming soon, don't worry." ”

Shen Qingdai found a clean stone at random and sat down, after standing for so long, she felt a little tired, she looked into the distance with her cheeks, and it didn't take long for a canopy boat to appear in her sight, Shen Qingdai's eyes lit up, and she said in surprise: "Brother, brother, look, is that the third uncle's family!"

Shen Xiuran raised his eyes and looked into the distance, nodded with a smile.

"It's okay to make us wait, I see my little cousin, who has grown a little taller after a few months. As she spoke, the awning boat was near, and she waved her hand happily.

Shen Bujiao also saw them standing on the boat, and shouted excitedly: "Cousin, cousin!"

The canopy boat got closer and closer, until it reached the ferry, Shen Qingdai and Shen Xiuran called affectionately: "Third uncle, third aunt." ”

Then get on the boat to help move things, Li Xiyi They brought a lot of things, which they couldn't take, but Shen Zhixing was a formation mage and could depict the magic circle, so he engraved the storage magic circle on a piece of jade pendant, and many gifts were placed inside, but some were placed outside, for the simple reason that he couldn't put it down.

It is not a simple matter to depict the formation, the storage area in the storage array is closely related to the cultivation of the formation mage and the mastery of the formation, and the raw materials of the formation seal, and Shen Zhixing is not specialized in the knowledge of the storage formation, so he is not very proficient in it.

After Shen Zhixing swiped the star coins, the group of five people left the ferry, Shen Bujiao was young, and there were not many things outside, and with the help of Shen Qingdai and Shen Xiuran, she was naturally empty-handed.

She tilted her head to look at Shen Qingdai, Shen Qingdai smiled and asked her what she was looking at, she smiled sweetly: "Cousin, you look good again!"

Shen Qingdai's eyebrows and eyes curled: "Xiao Bu Jiao is really good at talking, and I haven't seen you grow taller in a few months." He looked at her carefully again, and laughed: "I've gained weight too!"

Everyone laughed, but Shen Bujiao didn't mind, and swore solemnly: "When I grow up, I will naturally lose weight." ”

Shen Xiuran took the two gifts that his sister was carrying, Shen Qingdai took out one hand to hold Shen Bujiao, Shen Bujie saw Shen Qingdai wearing a light blue Luo skirt, fifteen or sixteen years old, Liruo Spring Plum Blooming Snow, God Like Autumn Hui Frost, Cheeks Melting, Xia Yingchengtang, Eyes Crystalline, Moon Shooting Cold River, There is a cloud-like aura of Wushan on his body.

She couldn't help muttering: "And my cousin and cousin are so good-looking, I will definitely look good when I grow up." ”

Shen Qingdai laughed at her: "At a young age, you know whether you look good or not, don't worry, none of our Shen family is ugly, when you grow up, you must be better looking than me." ”

Shen Bujiao thought about it, nodded thoughtfully, and felt that what her cousin said was very reasonable.

Shen Zhixing asked Shen Xiuran: "You are almost twenty years old, has the academy arranged for you to go out to travel?"

The academy where Shen Xiuran and Shen Qingdai work is called Yingshan Academy, and all the academies in Futong will arrange a trip when students are successful in their studies, so as to increase their knowledge and flexibly use the knowledge they have learned in the academy, and also let this group of young people know that there are people outside the world and there is no end to learning.

Shen Xiuran's grades have always been very good, and he is also a leading outstanding talent among his peers, and they were about the same age as Shen Xiuran now when they went out to travel, so they asked this question.

"Yes, we will be twenty years old after the New Year, and the college has already informed us that we will travel for the next semester. Shen Xiuran's clear and sparse voice was not hurried or slow, with a gentle and elegant calmness.

"It's April now, and there is still half a year to go, so you can prepare well, and also go to appreciate the great rivers and mountains of Futong Country, and open your eyes. "The opening day of the college is usually February and September, with February being the first semester and September being the second semester.

Shen Xiuran nodded with a smile and asked, "Third Uncle, did you encounter interesting things when you traveled back then?"

When Shen Zhixing was asked like this, his mind came to mind when he was a high-spirited teenager, and he couldn't help but feel a little emotional, so he talked to him about the interesting things of his youth.

Several people's footsteps are not slow, soon arrived at the Shen Mansion, Shen Mansion Qionglou Yuyu, Danzhu Biwa, painting the eaves of the building, a long-legged glass lamp was erected in front of the door, and the word "Shen Mansion" was engraved on the bright and colorless lampshade.

When they came in, there were already a lot of people arriving, these were all members of the Shen clan, with yellow hair and drooping hair, sitting in front of the hall, gathering together to talk, gossip, and laugh.

Shen Bujiao's family said hello to them and returned to their courtyard, and after cleaning up, they went to the front hall to meet the elders.

The building in the front hall was solemn and neat, and when a few of them came in, the hall was already full of laughter, and Shen Wenshan and Xu Ruoshu were sitting on the main seat talking and laughing.

Shen Zhixing and Li Xiyi stepped forward and saluted: "Dad, mother." ”

Shen Bujiao behaved and called out obediently: "Grandpa, grandma." ”

The two in the hall smiled and motioned for them to get up, Xu Ruoshu beckoned to Shen Bujiao, Shen Bujiao ran forward and leaned on Xu Ruoshu's leg, Xu Ruoshu reached out and touched her head, and said with a smile: "I have grown a lot taller, can you study seriously in the academy?"

Xu Ruoshu is a gentle and dignified woman, with an elegant temperament, and the lines hidden in the corners of her eyes are the traces left by time, and her temperament has also precipitated over the years.

Shen Bujiao's chick nodded like pecking rice: "I can listen to Mr." ”

"That's good. Xu Ruoshu looked pleased, brought the pastry plate to Shen Bujiao, and said with a smile: "I'm hungry all the way, eat some pastries to cushion my stomach." ”

Shen Bujiao smiled and reached out to take it, it was a plate of lotus cake, similar to a lotus, the crisp layer was clear, the shape of the view was beautiful and moving, she took a bite, the crispy pine was sweet, and it had a unique flavor.

"Is it delicious?" Xu Ruoshu wiped the crumbs from the corners of her mouth with her hand.

Shen Bujiao nodded heavily, smiled and showed a row of millet teeth, very cute, and said vaguely: "It's delicious." ”

Shen Wenshan's deep and majestic voice sounded: "Zhixing, freehand, there are many things to worship ancestors during the Qingming Festival today, you go to your second brother's side to help." ”

Shen Zhixing and Li Xianyi nodded, glanced at Shen Bujiao, who was holding the lotus crisp and was eating sweetly, and left, and there was nothing to worry about in their old house.
