green bamboo dream

Because Mrs. Yang wanted to have some private conversations with her daughter, she asked a few juniors to go out first. Mrs. Du still had some housework to do, so after saluting, she asked her servants to take care of her and hurried back to her yard. 【26nbsp;】Cui Anhong, Yuzhu, and Yulan were left to walk and talk, because they were relatives and they were all underage, so they didn't worry about breaking the rules.

"Is cousin very hot? His face is so sunburned... Hey, you didn't ride a horse just now, how could the carriage you made be exposed to the sun?" Yu Zhu saw that Cui Anhongyu's delicate face was blushing , his eyes were evasive, and when he looked over by himself, he looked away like a little rabbit in shock, really unable to control the urge to flirt.

Cui Anhong looked at his cousin's pink and tender cheeks, and felt that there was nothing to hide under those clear and pure eyes. His mother had told him in private that maybe his aunt wanted Yuzhu to marry him, so that he could marry him. Seize the opportunity by yourself, after all, my aunt is the most beloved daughter-in-law of the old Hou Ye. If I become her son-in-law, then my house can completely overwhelm the other houses... However, this childish little cousin is really amazing. He deeply felt that it was bad for him to have such a thought.

"Nothing, just a little thirsty." Cui Anhong made up his mind and decided to ignore his mother's opinion. If a man wants to get ahead, he still has to rely on himself...

After he figured it out, he no longer struggled, Cui Anhong's fair and handsome face regained his peace, and his dew-like clear eyes fixedly looked at Yuzhu, until people felt embarrassed to bully him again.

"Tea, tea——Hua Ruo go and pour tea." Yu Zhu was embarrassed by those eyes, so she could only send her maid to pour tea to ease the embarrassment.

Yulan's aura was fully in full bloom, and the winged jade luan hairpin with rose crystals and lotus begonias on her head was shining brightly in the sun. She smiled softly at Cui Anhong and said, "Cousin, please come here to rest when you are tired." Let's wait a while, sister Zhu is young and ignorant, how can she let the guests stand under the sun."

Yuzhu has gained some skills, and she smiled more tenderly at Yulanyang, and said, "Sister Lan wants to talk about it separately, Brother Hong and Auntie Sun's nephew are not the same people." After all, don't go Seeing Yulan's instantly pale face, she stepped forward and walked quickly: "Here, I saw your garden last time, it was very beautiful, and mine is not inferior at all."

Cui Anhong didn't know how many times he had watched the dispute between the concubine and the concubine since he was a child, and he didn't care at all, so he followed up with a smile. After all, this sister Zhu is his own cousin, and he naturally favors her in his heart.

Yu Zhu snorted coldly in her heart, Aunt Sun's group of shabby relatives would be disgusting every time they came to fight the autumn wind. There was a time when he was dying at the gate of Deyuan, and he said that his uncle didn't help him pay off his gambling debts. He would have no way of life anyway, so he might as well be killed at the gate... In the end, he spent money to eliminate the disaster, Lin Yuan was so angry His face was blue, and he almost abused his power and threw that guy into the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice.

Yulan bit her lower lip, stomped her feet, and still chased after her. Although it was impossible for her to have a good relationship with the grandson of the Cui family, it was always good to have a good relationship—this was also taught by Sister Hongdou.

The main body of the garden is a large lake. In the lake is a large continent, formerly known as Baihuazhou. There are several poles of bamboo planted on it, horizontal houses built beside the bamboo, earthen houses with thatched roofs, and surrounded by beautiful bamboos. It is called Zhuzhai. It is separated from the Cuiyue Pavilion in the center of the lake Echoing the paired scene, the lotus is not all over the lake, but the southwestern half is full of graceful and graceful ones. There are dozens of willows on the lakeside without lotus, and the shadows of the trees are reflected in the water, like a beautiful brocade.In the northeast corner of the lake is a plum grove with lush leaves. Although it does not have all kinds of fragrance in winter, it is quite interesting. The tops are curved and overlapped like an arched veranda and covered with vines and peonies. It is very comfortable to walk under in summer, especially good at flowers; there are some fences on the south side, planted with peonies, peonies and various four-season flowers and plants, and Osmanthus, Tang, apricot, pomegranate and other flowering trees to ensure that there are flowers to enjoy in the yard all year round.

Yu Zhu was very confident about the yard she had rested and reorganized. She smiled and led Cui Anhong forward. Trees are planted staggered, stones are piled up to form mountains, and a small pond was chiseled by skillful craftsmen between the stones. The pavilion, a subterranean current runs through it, and the delicate and small stone bridge is full of charm; passing through the small stone bridge, you can see several pear blossoms on the other side, and through the leaky window with the ring pattern, you can see that two hibiscus trees have grown pink and tender flower buds. Next to the exquisite and translucent rocks, green and delicate plantains grow in clusters, with a kind of watery cuteness.

Cui Anhong exhaled deeply, his handsome face was extremely relaxed, and he followed Yuzhu through the cobblestone path until he came to a small pavilion with stone tables and benches in the pavilion, and Qingzhao Pavilion behind the pavilion, "Hong Brother, how is it, this yard is not bad." Yu Zhu knew the answer without asking, but she asked casually, to be honest, this was the first time she had talked to a boy other than her brother in such a long time, and she always felt a little Strange, can't find a topic.

Pushing open a simple bamboo door on the short wall at the back of the pavilion, and entering a small room, Yu Zhu smiled and said, "It's been so long, let's take a rest." Cui Anhong heard the movement, turned around and saw Yu Lan following behind, Frowning, he said in a warm voice: "The guest is up to the owner." The maid in charge of this area quickly brought fragrant tea and warm summer heat soup, and then quietly retreated.

Cui Anhong picked up a cup of tea, took off the lower leaf of the mullion window with one hand, and smiled at a quiet brook covered by thick grass outside the window, saying: "It's really a clever idea, how can you be so beautiful? , it’s like a fairyland.”

"If Cousin Hong likes it, come and see it often. The scenery in this garden is sure to be different in four seasons." Yu Lan sat on the bamboo chair reservedly, and Yu Zhu was thinking about it, if she went to pick up that chair now , then Yulan will definitely fall into a shit-who let her only sit for a quarter of it.

"Thank you, I will come to visit my aunt when I have time." Cui Anhong gracefully put down the teacup with the pattern of bucket-colored grapes, and said in a gentle manner.

After that, Yu Zhu seized the opportunity to ask Cui Anhong to talk about the outside world. This is a rare opportunity to understand the outside world. Cui Anhong was not impatient, and kept talking slowly with a smile on his face. What activities, the old master who taught the Four Books and Five Classics couldn't see clearly, and he was shaking his head and reading all day long... Yu Zhu and Yu Lan listened with great interest, and they were very envious. This was much more exciting than the life in the boudoir.

The consequence of being fascinated by listening is that until the maid sent by the Cui family came in, no one noticed that the sky had changed. The dark clouds covered the sky, and the sky had become dark. I didn’t feel it when I was sitting indoors, but I felt a strong wind when I went out. Dazuo, Yuzhu was blinded by the dust, and walked forward with tears in her eyes.

……

Hurrying to see off Mrs. Yang and Cui Anhong before the rain fell, Mrs. Cui breathed a sigh of relief, and with the help of Xiuyue, she took off the hairpins and big clothes she had gone out to meet guests, and changed into homely clothes, which felt tight Her scalp relaxed, and Cui couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief. She didn't go out for a long time, and suddenly she was a little uncomfortable. Looking at the sky outside, Cui groaned for a moment, and said to Liu's mother: "There How are the arrangements?"

Mother Liu inserted her fingers into Cui's thick black hair and massaged gently, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, I did it a while ago, and it is estimated that it will happen in the next few days."

Cui narrowed her eyes slightly, and said in a low voice: "If it wasn't for the fact that she was sent by Zou Shangshu, I was afraid that what I did would affect my career, so I didn't need to spend so much effort."

"It's okay, what do you like to do as a gift so much? I have to find a way to give some to his son-in-law when his daughter gets married tomorrow." Cui Shi stood up, muttered and walked a few steps, suddenly his face changed, and he hurriedly ordered Mother Liu: "Quickly, hurry up and send a carriage to pick up the master back to the house. The rain is so heavy, how can you ride a horse in a sedan chair... Tell the coachman to hurry up, the rain is about to come down."

Mother Liu didn't say much, and hurried out to arrange a carriage.

……

After a while, it was raining cats and dogs, and the thunder was rumbling, which could not be heard.

When Lin Yuanzhi entered the room clean and dry, what was waiting for him was a steaming cup of ginger mother tea, which was boiled thoroughly with brown sugar and ginger added. Feeling shocked.

Being urged by Mrs. Cui to drink ginger mother tea, and then pulled him to change clothes, "It's okay, the car at home just arrived, and there was no rain on the way." Lin Yuanzhi put his hand on Cui's face helplessly. On Shi's shoulder, he stopped.

"It doesn't matter if it's not in the rain. If you walk around in such heavy rain, your clothes will be covered with moisture, and you're most likely to get sick. Master, let's change."

Lin Yuanzhi had no choice but to obey.

After everything was packed, the couple held hot tea and talked.

"...Fortunately, the family has been separated, otherwise this eldest lady would not know how much trouble she would cause the younger sisters below..." Cui narrated what happened during the day in detail, "I see what happened to sister-in-law His complexion is very bad, and he doesn't know what happened... Anyway, it won't be a good thing, and he hasn't revealed a word of it until now, so it's probably something serious if he covers it so tightly."

Lin Yuanzhi's face also gradually became serious, and he said angrily, "Lady Lan is not allowed to have anything to do with that red bean in the future, and she will push away any invitations to meet." He reached out and knocked on the table twice, and said: "She It's not too small, let's settle this marriage first, I see that there is a good person on the list you gave, you can inquire about it in detail when you have time, if you really have outstanding character and talent, then make a decision first , wait until she is old enough to get married." Lin Yuanzhi made a quick decision.

Cursing the corners of her lips, Cui Shi agreed softly: "I will definitely inquire carefully." It is more reassuring for this concubine to shut her up at home to embroider the dowry.
