Chapter 90: Evoking Memory
"Junlan Rue, Junlan Rue ······" Liu Juan silently recited the name, and a circle of ripples seemed to stir up in her vast mind, but it was too short to feel it in an instant.
Looking at Tan Jing's thoughtful expression in front of him, the father-in-law's heart thumped, could it be that the soul was scattered······ The next words made the father-in-law's heart hang again.
"Whose is such a beautiful and noble flower? I am a little reluctant to buy it. Tan Jing looked forward to looking at her father-in-law.
The father-in-law raised his eyebrows and smiled: "Yo! Look at the slave family, I really damn it, I forgot to tell you." This flower is originally yours, you are a fairy who raises flowers, what flowers are cultivated by you, they will be elegant and refined, not immortals are better than immortals. ”
After a slight pause, the father-in-law looked up at Tan Jing with a satisfied face and continued: "Speaking of this Jun Lan Ruxiang, your heart is really not a little expensive, and you personally protect it every day, and you have today's demeanor over time." In order to participate in today's bluestone villa's flower competition. ”
"Flower Competition?" Tan Jing asked puzzledly, "What Flower Competition?"
"Oh, Niangniang, you don't remember, this flower contest is not an ordinary lively, it is held once a year, and the time is set on the first three days of the fourth month of the solar calendar, that is, the three days of April 123. In these three days, the first two days were nothing, just sacrificing to the river and worshiping the gods or something. But this third day is lively. At that time, every household will carefully cultivate the wonderful beauty of the flower on the stage, select the prestige of the village and the high power of the village to appreciate together, and select the top ten for praise and encouragement. You have forgotten that the people of Bluestone Villa regard raising flowers, offering flowers, and actually treating flowers as their life. Therefore, it is of great significance to them to be rewarded or even just a few words of praise at the Jinghua Festival. In particular, those who won the top three were really courteous to the prince of Saibi! The first winner of the flower was named the flower fairy, the second place was honored as the god of flowers, and the third place was honored as the king of flowers. Moreover, it must be reported to the imperial court and given a golden seal, so that the ancestors will be honored and famous all over the world. ”
"Oh!" Tan Jing's eyes flashed, and she sighed softly.
When the father-in-law heard Tan Jing's sigh, he was overjoyed in his heart, and said: "On this whole day, Bluestone Villa is crowded with people, people from Bluestone Villa, people from Longyun Villa, people from Wolong Bay and Tianyan Gang. There are also people outside Longyun Villa, which is really more lively than the New Year's Festival. Today is the third day of this year's Flower Festival······"
Tan Jing's eyes flowed, a smile between his eyebrows, sending his eyes to the sky, thousands of rivers and mountains, peaks and mountains, white clouds tumbling and rolling, the eastern morning sun is rising, the breeze is refreshing, the birds are chirping, the body is thousands of miles away, the sky is blue, there are bees and butterflies dancing in the ears, and I sigh in my heart that I was born in Si It is really a supreme luck.
Looking back, Lisheng said: "You said, today is the third day of Jinghua, and I am also going to participate in Jinghua?"
"Exactly. ”
"But you said that I am from Longyun Villa, can people outside of Bluestone Villa participate?" Tan Jing said confusedly.
"This" the father-in-law hesitated slightly: "The slave family still has to say a few words, the owner of the village and a family surnamed Liu in Qingshi Villa have been friends for generations, because this Liu family only has male heirs, no daughters, so they recognized you as a righteous daughter, and your flower-raising skills are all taught by the family surnamed Liu." But unfortunately, because of the flower festival every year before last, why did the flowers that the people surnamed Liu participate in the flowers suddenly withered on the flower platform, naturally the person surnamed Liu was very depressed, and then he died. Its wife, too, was overly sad and soon disappeared. And his only son, your brother-in-law, heard rumors that his father's flowers had died because the children of the nobles in the village had made grass for their hands and feet. Late one night, the boy sneaked into the mansion of the nobles in order to take revenge, but was beaten to death with a stick. ”
Speaking of this, the father-in-law wiped a few handfuls of tears, and then choked: "You were only ten years old at that time, and it has been six years since you pinched your fingers." The owner of the village negotiated with the owner of the Qingshi Villa several times for this matter, and finally they finally compromised and agreed that in the future, you will participate in the annual flower competition as the heir of the Liu family, and you can live in the old mansion of the Liu family. I believe that you will understand. ”
Tan Jing's eyes were a little moist, and her jade teeth were clenched. A cloud of anger rose invisibly in my heart. I can't imagine that there is such a thing behind the beauty of Bluestone Villa. One day, he must have vented this evil breath for his righteous parents and righteous brother. At the same time, I admire my father's personality very much.
After calming down for a while, Tan Jing said calmly: "So, shouldn't we go to Jinghua'er, I believe that this pot of Junlan Rue will regain the dignity of my father-in-law's family!"
"Yes. The father-in-law nodded solemnly.
Tan Jing looked at her father-in-law and motioned for him to lead the way, and her father-in-law nodded slightly: "Wait a minute" At the same time, her right hand reached into her arms and took out a round box with a diameter of three inches, purple slightly, like rosewood. Then I pressed the side and opened it with a snap. Respectfully held it in front of Tan Jing and said, "The Venerable Lord has explained, Niangniang mistakenly smelled the Memory Grass, and her body must have been very weak when she first woke up, and she needs to take the Ten Thousand Year Ice Lotus Body Tonic Pill regularly to slowly recover as before." ”
As he spoke, the father-in-law had already bowed his head and raised his hands above his head. Tan Jing examined the box that shimmered purple in the sun, the box was lined with golden satin, and on top of the silk lay a snow-white bead, the size of an acorn. After looking at the person in front of him a few times, and reaching out to take it, Tan Jing hesitated a little, but still put it into his mouth, and suddenly his throat was refreshed, and his internal organs were also relieved.
Feeling that after Tan Jing took the Ten Thousand Year Ice Lotus Body Replenishment Pill, Gonggong Zhen straightened up slightly and said, "Niangniang, please." So he led the way on the side.
Under the sun, the two figures walked unhurriedly and slowly in the direction of Qingshi Shangzhuang, walking farther and farther, and finally condensed into a point in the line of sight, and then disappeared.
But under the sun, the golden brocade quilt and velvet quilt were still spread there, but the intoxicating fragrance of Junlan Rue flowers was missing. The snow-white velvet quilt is stirred by the morning breeze, rising and falling, just like a swan with wings ready to fly.
In the distance, a ragged teenager staggered over with a haggard face. As he was walking, he suddenly found a piece of Jinhua in front of him, and a white cloud was floating above Jinhua. Enduring hunger and exhaustion, the boy took a few steps.
In front of me was two layers of brocade velvet quilt, this quilt was so beautiful and luxurious, how could it be owned by ordinary people. The young man looked around vigilantly, and after a long time, he didn't find a single figure. Finally, he had the courage to stroke the brocade quilt goose down, what kind of comfort it was, the young man couldn't express it.
Suddenly, a trace of wind swept by, carrying a crisp birdsong, the young man suddenly flashed into a tree next to a farmland, and after realizing that it was just a false alarm, cautiously appeared next to the brocade quilt, and then hurriedly folded the brocade quilt, pressed it into the package next to it, hugged it in his arms, and got up and walked towards the depths of Zhuangnan. It's just that it's still so powerless, so staggering.
