Chapter 23: The Legend of the Plum Blossom

After about a cup of tea, Yi Hongyue walked out, so everyone gathered around, shouting to take a look, Dugu Lantai was not included, he took an arrow step, rushed to Yi Hongyue and said, "Sister Hongyue, hurry up and let you take a look." ”

Yi Hongyue smiled, and pulled up the sleeves until the snow-like fragrant shoulders were revealed.

Dugu Lantai looked at Yi Hongyue's skin like snow, and was constantly stunned, only to see Yi Hongyue's face red, and his right hand shook in front of Dugu Lantai's eyes, Lantai reacted, hehe, smiled, and saw Yi Hongyue glaring at himself, so he touched his nose with his hand a little embarrassed.

Only to hear the exclamations of the girls next to him, Dugu Lantai turned his head to look at Yi Hongyue's left arm.

Dugu Lantai's eyes also lit up, and he couldn't help but let out a sigh of admiration: "It's so beautiful!"

I saw a pink six-petal plum blossom blooming delicately on Yi Hongyue's left arm, with six petals and dazzling brilliance!

Xiao Qingfang next to him also said: "Yes, it's so beautiful! I didn't expect our big pavilion leader to have such a tattoo unique song, it's really incredible!" The tone was full of strong admiration for the phoenix.

At this time, Dugu Lantai said: "This should be the six-petal palace pink plum, right?"

Yi Hongyue said: "Yes, it is Gong Fanmei." ”

Plum blossom is the flower of the plum tree, the leaves open in winter, and the petals are generally five, with pink, white, red and other colors. Most of them grow in the south, there are many varieties and varieties of plum blossoms, there are more than 30 large varieties at present, and there are more than 300 subordinate small varieties, and the general flowering period is about two to three months.

According to the type of plum, it is divided into three germlines, namely Zhimei germline, Xingmei germline, and plum plum germline. Below, it is mainly divided into five categories according to the posture of branches.

The first category is called straight-branched plums. Branches straight up or obliquely. This is the oldest in the plum family, the most luxuriant member of the category, under the product word plum, palace powder and other nine kinds.

The second group is called weeping plums. The branches are naturally drooping or obliquely drooping, and there are five types such as pink flower weeping branches.

The third category is called Longyou plum. The branches are naturally twisted like dragons, only one type is the dragon and plum class, and the first type is the jade butterfly dragon type and the first type is the jade butterfly dragon tour type.

The fourth category is called apricot plum. It is a hybridization between the seeds of plum and apricot, flowers, leaves, and branches live between plum and apricot, and the apricot and plum are not fragrant or slightly fragrant, and the receptacle is swollen. There are single-petaled apricot and plum type and post-spring type.

The fifth category is the cherry plum plum class, which is a hybrid of the purple-leaved plum and the palace pink plum, with purple leaves and red flowers, double petals and large flowers, and is cold-resistant.

The growth attitude of its varieties can be divided into leaf plum, right-angled plum, and water plum. According to the flower color and flower type, it can be divided into palace pink plum, red plum, water plum, green calyx plum, big red plum, jade butterfly plum, sprinkled golden plum and other types.

The plum blossom has five petals, which is a symbol of five blessings. One is happiness, the second is happiness, the third is longevity, the fourth is smoothness, and the fifth is the peace we hope for the most. The five petals of the plum blossom symbolize auspiciousness. Plum blossoms bloom in early spring and are the representative of January flowers!

The most important thing is to introduce these dozen varieties first, they are the most common varieties in the world, of course, there must be more than these nineteen species, but it is impossible to escape the previous mentioned series, it is nothing more than this and that hybridization, and then produce a new variety, I will not introduce much here.

At this time, Dugu Lantai asked: "It is said that there are two legends of plum blossoms. ”

Yi Hongyue gently put down the sleeves that she had pulled up, and then said with a faint expression: "Yes, there are two widely spread legends of plum blossoms, they are 'Plum Blossom Princess' and 'Plum Blossom Kingfisher'. ”

Dugu Lantai's eyes lit up, and he suddenly became interested, and said: "Oh? I don't know about this, I only know that there are two legends of plum blossoms, but I don't know what they are, can Sister Hongyue explain it in detail?"

The other sisters who had not yet been named also looked at Yi Hongyue, hoping that she could solve everyone's doubts.

Yi Hongyue complained: "I'm suddenly a little tired, and my back hurts when I stand there." ”

Dugu Lantai grinned and said, "I'll bring a chair for my sister." With that, a chair was brought over from the side as if the wind were blowing.

Yi Hongyue sat on the chair and said, "Hey, I suddenly felt dry again. ”

Dugu Lantai was stunned for a moment, and soon the corners of his mouth raised slightly, and said with a smile: "I'll pour my sister a cup of tea." ”

There was a ready-made set of exquisite tea sets next to him, he walked over, poured a cup of fragrant tea quickly, and then respectfully brought it to Yi Hongyue's side and said, "Sister, please use tea." ”

Yi Hongyue picked up the cup and took a sip lightly, and said, "Well, good, not bad, our Lantai has made great progress." After speaking, he couldn't hold it anymore, so he held his little belly and laughed.

She smiled, and the sisters of the whole hall laughed together, for a while, like a hundred flowers blooming, the flowers and branches trembled, and the fragrance hit people.

At this time, Xiao Qingfang glared at Yi Hongyue and said, "Okay, okay, stop teasing our Lantai, just say it quickly." ”

Teasing Lantai has always been their happiest thing, but Lantai is also their dearest brother, and before they know it, this boy has become a backlash in each of their hearts, and no one can bully outsiders!

Yi Hongyue cleared her throat and said: "'Princess Plum Blossom' is Princess Shouyang, the daughter of Emperor Wu of the Southern Dynasty of the Song Dynasty. It is believed that Princess Shouyang is the fairy and spirit transformed by plum blossoms, so coexisting is called the plum blossom flower god. ”

Dugu Lantai said: "What about the 'plum blossom kingfisher'?"

Yi Hongyue said: "Legend has it that when Zhao Shixiong of the former Sui Dynasty was resting in Luofu Mountain, he saw a woman with a fragrant fragrance and a child in green clothes laughing and playing in a dream. When he woke up and found himself sleeping under the plum tree, with a kingfisher crying next to him, he knew that the woman he saw in his dream was a plum blossom. This is where the 'Plum Kingfisher' comes from. Also, don't forget, it is said that this Zhao Shixiong is still in the world, and he is also one of the 'Nine Legends of Martial Arts' today, a powerhouse in the realm of a great grandmaster!"

At this time, I saw Fu Xueying come over and say, "Maybe that kingfisher is a fairy." ”

Yi Hongyue looked at Dugu Lantai and said: "Literati and scholars love plum blossoms, and now, every time a friend composes a poem, who doesn't chant a sentence or two."

Feng Yuanyuan didn't know when he came to Dugu Lantai's side, and said faintly: "I didn't expect the legends of plum blossoms to be so beautiful." ”

......

It is said that with the help of Caidie, the tattoo speed of the phoenix is quite fast, and the tattoo of twenty people has been completed in just one stick of incense.

Sure enough, as Dugu Lantai guessed, each of them carved a bright and dazzling plum blossom on their left arm, and the six sisters of Yi Hongyue had a higher status, so they were tattooed with six-petal plum blossoms on their shoulders, each with its own characteristics, vivid, and good-looking, and the color of each person's plum blossom was different, and it was set according to the color of their clothes.
