Second spring

No matter how she didn't care, the old lady walked away after making it clear that she didn't cooperate, and even asked Mr. Lin to go away. She didn't let him back for a long time, and the atmosphere of the family banquet was a little bit uncomfortable.

So, not long after the dishes were served, the elders offered a few toasts to each other. After the juniors stood up and made a round of toasts, the main table dispersed——Uncle Lin and Second Master Lin went to the study together. Madam and Mrs. Li also walked out of the flower hall together.

In this way, the two aunts were too embarrassed to continue, so they left.

For the rest of the juniors, after Aunt Xin took the youngest Lin Jiaxiang away, Lin Jiakang invited people to come up and reorganize the table for men and women, and added some new dishes, and it became lively again.

There are a lot of new things in the capital. Even Lin Shijia and other women who rarely go out will never lack topics in front of Lin Huijia, a few "bumps" who have just returned to Beijing.And Guangzhou is an even more magical place. In addition, Lin Huijia and the others still have what they have seen and heard along the way. If they say anything casually, they will be amazed by Lin Shijia and his daughters.

Girls get acquainted quickly.

It didn't take long before the strange and polite feeling between them disappeared, and they were able to let go soon.

Lin Changjia wrapped her arms around Lin Shijia: "Second sister, why are you still reluctant to take out your plum wine? Today is the big sister and the others coming home, it is a big day! Second sister..."

Lin Changjia's acting skills are not inferior to Lin Yijia's at all. She rubbed and shook Lin Shijia's arm, and soon made Lin Shijia feel helpless.Just...drink?Lin Shijia still hesitated.

Lin Minjia became interested when he heard it.

She looked at Lin Shijia curiously, lowered her voice, and asked nervously, "Is it really plum blossom wine?"

Lin Shijia nodded, a little puzzled.

Lin Minjia realized that she was making a fuss, and she was a little embarrassed at once, and explained: "We have always grown up in the local area... I met a noble girl from the official family who was transferred from the capital to the local area before, and I heard her show off about the capital city. Many of the ladies here like to make wine by themselves, such as peach blossom wine, lotus wine, chrysanthemum wine, plum blossom wine, I didn’t really believe it at that time. Few of our girls’ family like to drink.”

That's right, if it's okay to embroider, read, cook tea, practice calligraphy, make rouge, etc., she can understand.But girls' families rarely have the opportunity to drink, and even fewer like to drink. Why do they go to brew wine?Is it because I'm too busy?

Regarding this question, after living in the capital for only one month, she got the answer.

Having said that, Lin Shijia heard Lin Minjia's explanation, and said: "That's not the case. The plum blossom wine we make has a very light taste and a floral fragrance, and the taste is still very good."

Lin Changjia also nodded and said: "It's really delicious. However, mother and auntie don't allow us to drink it easily, and only let us taste a little on the big day. Second sister, today is a big day, look at three My sister has never tasted our own brewed wine..."

"Yeah, I want to try it." Lin Minjia became more interested.

Lin Shijia glanced at Lin Huijia, saw that she was just smiling and had no intention of objecting, so she beckoned and asked Siyue to pick it up: "Be careful, don't let Mama Li know."

Si Yue was a very calm maidservant, she nodded and left lightly without saying a word.

Here, Lin Huijia's eldest maid, Mo Mei, got what she wanted, and she also took action. She called the other maids, and first found eight landscape screens to separate them from the young masters, and then separated them from the young masters. They whispered a few words and parted ways—

Mo Mei and Lin Yinjia's eldest maid, Qingtao, stood guard at the entrance of the flower hall.Lan Ling and Caiyun beside Lin Changjia stood on the edge of the screen without a trace, leaving Honglu waiting on the edge of the table.

After a while, April walked in with a fruit basket.

The fruit basket is covered with square green silk cloth.Pulling off the silk cloth, there are dozens of bright red plump pomegranates in neat yards underneath.After the pomegranates were taken out one by one and put into the fruit plate, the layer of blue cotton cloth underneath was lifted off, and finally looked at several small urns.

The small urn is very small, with a capacity of no more than half a catty.

Si Yue carefully opened one, put it on the tip of her nose and sniffed it lightly, then picked it up and poured it for the ladies.

The small urn accompanied the small cup.

The white jade wine cup was just big enough for a sip.

The plum blossom wine is clear and translucent, with plum blossoms floating on it, and the subtle fragrance hits gently in the rippling... Even before it touches the lips, it feels extremely elegant.

Lin Yijia took a sip lightly.The taste is very good, so I drank it all in one gulp.

Although the taste of wine is light, it is not without it.Soon a red cloud appeared on her face.On the cheek, there seemed to be a flame burning.Eager, true and beautiful.

Asking Siyue for another cup, Lin Yijia lowered her head this time and ate very slowly.

Huh.Why are your eyes blurry?

Oh, I must be drunk... so bad... Lin Yijia's consciousness quickly became dull.When she raised her eyes and saw Lin Huijia who was close at hand, she said naively: "Eldest sister, eldest sister, am I a little six...I'm twelve this year..."

"Look at this girl who is so drunk that she doesn't even know who she is?" Lin Minjia said with disgust, "It's useless. It's really embarrassing to Lin Minjia." There was a smile on her face.

Lin Shijia blamed herself a little: "Sixth sister, is everything okay? It's all my fault..."

"It's just two sips of wine, how can you get drunk. It's the first time she can't avoid it, and it has nothing to do with you." Someone lifted the soft couch over, and Lin Huijia helped her to lie on it halfway. After feeding a little warm water, she covered her A thin quilt was worn.

The weather was not cold.Moreover, several pots of charcoal were produced in the flower hall, so she was not afraid of freezing her.

The main reason is——Xiao Liu is drunk, they will definitely be scolded a few times, but they haven't had a round of wine yet, isn't it worthwhile to be scolded like this?Since it is destined to be scolded, it must be worth it...

This is Lin Minjia's point of view.

And her point of view has been enthusiastically pursued by Lin Changjia.Of course, what played the decisive role was the elder sister Lin Huijia's non-objection.She remembered that when her mother just left, she said to them: "Today is a rare opportunity, so have fun..."

She is smart enough to know what mother means.And she also knows that the lives of noble girls in the capital are by no means similar to Guangzhou Mansion - in Guangzhou Mansion, they can go out and play at will, ride horses on the vast sandy beach, and watch the buildings full of various goods coming and going. Boats, you can talk to scary-looking Westerners... Well, they all can speak some simple Western dialects...

And the ladies in the capital... as the name suggests, under normal circumstances, they can only stay in the back house.Even if they can occasionally go out to burn incense or go shopping, most of them are sitting in the carriage, and they have to wear a veiled hat after getting off the carriage, as if they are too long to see people...Besides, no matter whether they are sitting, standing or walking, Be strict and orderly...

Like drinking with the sisters today, it is not easy to do it again in the future.

"Hey, Big Sister, will Auntie take us out in the future?" Lin Changjia's face was also slightly red, but her eyes were brighter.She said longingly, "I've grown up so much, I haven't attended a banquet yet."

"Why, didn't Second Aunt take you out? Probably not?" Lin Minjia relaxed, and she had something to say, so Lin Huijia gave Lin Huijia a gloomy look.

Lin Shijia didn't care, shook her head and said: "Uncle and uncle are not in Beijing, it is difficult for our family to receive posts from decent people. Other relatives' families also rarely invite dinner. Not to mention the two younger sisters, it is me , it is rare to go out for a trip... Mother, she is not in good health; grandmother is more quiet..."

As Lin Minjia mentioned before, when Lin Shiqing and his wife are not at home, it seems that there is only an empty shell left in the Lin family, which will be ignored and excluded.So, how can Lin Shijia and the others have any chance to go out?

Lin Yijia thought in a daze: It seems that the second sister is also 16 years old, and the marriage has not yet happened... Then she thought about her previous life in a daze. My sister married into the family of the second aunt of the Li family...
