Second spring

March [-]rd, Peach Blossom Festival.

On both sides of the Spring River, there are ten miles of peach blossoms, which is the most popular place for outings.And on the third day of March, almost all the ladies in Shengjing City dressed up and went out, strolling in the peach blossom forest, or swimming on the rippling spring river.The peach blossoms on the human face complement each other so beautifully that even the wind is going to be drunk.

It was the third day of March when Lin Yuaner, the eldest aunt of the Lin family, entered the Shengjing city gate in a carriage.

Time seems to have treated her particularly favorably, as if she was unwilling to leave traces on her delicate face. Her beautiful face is smooth and delicate. But in his twenties, he is unparalleled in style.

Shengjing, Shengjing.

After an absence of 18 years, she finally returned to this place.

Lin Yuan'er, the current Mrs. Chen, gently lowered the curtain of the car to block out the spring scenery, leaned in the car, and slowly closed her beautiful eyes.

"Mother, is this Shengjing?" Chen Wanzhi, the eldest daughter of the Chen family, stared outside, a pair of watery eyes revealed a beautiful light.

"Shhh." Chen Zhenyi said softly, "Wanzhi, keep your voice down and let your mother rest for a while."

Chen Wanzhi moved the corner of her mouth indiscernibly.

After the family received the letter from Shengjing, Mrs. Chen couldn't wait to pack it up. Almost all the small items that could be moved were packed into boxes.At the beginning, Chen Zhenyi just said that she would come to Beijing as a guest and would return to Fuzhou soon; gradually, Chen Zhenyi announced that they would buy a house in the capital and live there for a year or so... Finally, this short stay.It has been at least three to five years, and the return date is uncertain.

"Brother Qing and Brother Ping want to go to school, this is negotiable. But what about Miss Wan? Yes, there are many great families in Fuzhou, but which one can compare with Shengjing City? Look at our daughter. Her qualifications, what kind of people can't get in, how can she be buried in a small rural place like Fuzhou!"

Chen Zhenyi really wanted to say that Fuzhou is not a small place in the countryside...but she frowned when she saw Lin Yuan'er.As ever, it is no longer possible to insist on your own opinion.Besides, there are handsome sons and sons in Fuzhou, whoever Lin Yuaner has never seen before, but there is no one who can fall in her eyes...

Come on, she came from the prosperous place of Shengjing.Marrying to Fuzhou, marrying yourself, is wronged.Since she wanted to bring her children back to Shengjing, and the Chen family couldn't afford the expenses in Shengjing, why did they have to make her unhappy?

After Chen Zhenyi sold her difficult-to-manage property, she worshiped her ancestors on the night of the Lantern Festival.Early the next morning, the whole family set off.

It is not easy to go out.The dry road is rough and difficult.

Lin Yuan'er married far away, and after coming all the way to Fuzhou, her whole body was tossed out of shape, like a withered dried flower, and Chen Zhenyi deeply remembered it in her mind. It's not easy to feel sorry for her.Just cherish her more.

Today, how could he be willing to let her suffer like that again?

Fortunately.In the past ten years, shipping has developed greatly, and even the grain transport ships from Fuzhou have gone to sea... So, Chen Zhenyi was packed in a large ship, and the journey went smoothly to Tianjin Port.In Tianjin Port, he stayed for several days according to Lin Yuan'er's will, and then slowly entered Shengjing City all the way.

After more than two months of journey, Lin Yuan'er's beauty has barely been damaged.This made Chen Zhenyi very satisfied, and felt that this trip was worth it no matter how much time it took and how much it cost.

In Shengjing City on March [-]rd, even the air is sweet and warm.

Those noble girls all wore different styles of clothes from Fuzhou, even if the clothes were not as good as hers, they naturally had a kind of wealth and dignity.It was a kind of reservedness that belonged to this Shengjing City, with an aloof and careless air, making Chen Wanzhi squint her eyes involuntarily, and leaned back gently.

Born and raised in Fuzhou.Even with her mother's precepts and deeds, compared with the aristocratic daughter of Shengjing who naturally showed her young and beautiful face outside and talked and laughed lightly, Chen Wanzhi still keenly smelled a kind of earthy smell emanating from herself... This smell made her feel faintly embarrassed.

This embarrassment quickly turned into her pride, so Chen Wanzhi raised her chin slightly, raising her beautiful face without a single flaw.

With this raised face, she saw a person.

That man, standing on top of a tall city tower, possesses an aura that is beyond compare to the sky, making people forget his age and appearance, but they remember him all at once.

He glanced at Chen Wan.

With just one look, Chen Wanzhi was so shocked that she almost screamed!She clenched her fists and shouted in her heart: Who is that?Why is he looking at himself!

The carriage moved forward slowly.

Chen Wanzhi settled down, and when she looked out again, the figure was no longer on the tower, as if she just had an illusion.

"Wanzhi." Lin Yuan'er opened her eyes, and said softly: "Just take a look. After staying here, there are many opportunities to come out and play. Shengjing is no better than Fuzhou. The girls are locked in the backyard and cannot see outside. God."

Chen Wanzhi nodded and said softly, "I see."

After a pause, she asked again: "Mother, have you visited the Peach Blossom Festival many times?"

"Yeah...it comes out almost every year..." Lin Yuan'er raised her head and looked at the car window, as if she could see the bright and infinite spring scenery outside the window through the car window, recalling with regret.

The daughters of Sheng Jing, the most conservative family passed down to the previous dynasty, couldn't help their daughters to go out on March [-]rd.And every girl in Shengjing City, no matter when and where she is, has the best memories of the Peach Blossom Festival in her heart.

That year, she met him in the peach blossom forest beside the Spring River.

That year, she and him looked at each other across the peach blossom forest, and their eyes intertwined into the sweetest softness in the bottom of my heart, which is worth savoring for a lifetime, so as to support her through the happy and unsatisfactory times in life...

Lin Yuaner also has a memory hidden in her heart.

"Excuse me, is it the Chen family's motorcade from Fuzhou?" A voice disturbed Lin Yuan'er, so she sat up straight.

"Yes." Someone in the Chen family motorcade replied.

"Dare to ask, but it's the Lin family's uncle's house?" The man asked very politely.

Chen Zhenyi nodded to Lin Yuaner, and carefully got out of the carriage.Soon, the sound of him talking with someone came from inside the carriage.It turned out that it was someone from Lin's residence who came to greet him.

Because of Lin Yuaner's insistence, the Chen family did not inform the Lin family of the specific return date of the itinerary in advance.And the Lin Mansion sent people here not long after they entered the city, obviously they had been paying attention to them all the time.

"Mother." Chen Wanzhi softly called Lin Yuan'er.

Lin Yuan'er didn't answer her.And Chen Wanzhi didn't pay attention - she didn't seem to know what she was going to say when calling her mother...

With people from the Lin Mansion leading the way, the speed of the Chen family motorcade was a little faster, as if they had arrived at the Lin Mansion not long after.At this time, the main door of the Lin Mansion was wide open, and Lin Shiqing and his wife led the Lin family's master and servants to welcome them at the door.

"Brother and sister-in-law, what is this?" Chen Zhenyi was a little surprised by this situation: "I can't deserve it, how can I deserve it?"

Lin Shiqing said: "You deserve it. Yuan'er married far away back then, so she didn't leave the door ceremony this time. Today, when your family returns to Shengjing, it should be regarded as a make-up ceremony."

Lin Yuan'er's tears turned red instantly.

Lin Shiqing glanced at her reassuringly, and said softly, "Yuan'er, hurry up, father and mother are waiting."

Lin Yuan'er nodded abruptly, and hurried inside.

She walked so fast and in such a hurry that she even lifted up her skirt in disregard of etiquette like when she was a girl.Chen Zhenyi didn't dare to delay, so she hurried after her.

Of course Lin Shiqing had to follow.

A few juniors were left behind, and Mrs. Lin led them inside.Chen Qingzhi and the others all knew Mrs. Lin, knowing that she was the most enlightened and reasonable elder, they felt a little relieved.

At this time, it is time to greet each other from time to time.

When Mrs. Lin led them to Rongxi Hall, she saw the eldest aunt of the Lin family kneeling in front of Mrs. Lin, crying in her arms.She cried so painfully that Chen Zhenyi knelt there the whole time, bowing her head in shame.

"Zhenyi, get up." Elder Lin sighed slightly, looked at the ordinary-looking middle-aged man, and said, "You took good care of Yuan'er. I didn't misjudge you."

"This is what my son-in-law should do, and it's not worthy of praise." Chen Zhenyi was a little annoyed.

Mr. Lin nodded, turned his gaze to Chen Qingzhi and the others, and said, "It looks like they are all good boys."

Aunt Lin was crying so much that she forgot her feelings, so Mrs. Lin had no choice but to introduce for Mr. Lin: "This is Brother Qing, who is fifteen this year; this is Sister Wan, who is just fourteen; Ieyasu is one year younger. As you said, they are all good boys. You have bright eyes."

"Haha."

Mrs. Lin's metaphor made Mr. Lin forget his sadness, and he started to laugh out loud.Then someone sent a meeting gift.

Mr. Lin was honest, all he gave was a set of pens and ink plus a thick red envelope.

Lin Erye, Xiao Li, Lin Shiqi, and Lin Shifei also gave greetings.Afterwards, the juniors saluted again, and it took a lot of effort.

"Auntie is so young." Lin Minjia couldn't help but praise again.Before that, when they passed by Fuzhou, she had already seen and praised them once, which was not enough.

"As expected of being the number one beauty in Shengjing back then." Li Yueying nodded and looked at Mrs. Chen's back with envy—even if she cried bitterly, she could still cry so beautifully.She is 34, right?I don't know how to maintain it...

The first beauty?

Why did neither father nor mother mention it?

Chen Wanzhi's heart moved slightly, and a more beautiful smile appeared on her face - everyone said that she was born exactly like her mother.Since Niangqin was the number one beauty in Shengjing back then, she would never be inferior, right?

It's a pity that my mother married to Fuzhou.

Well, I'm afraid there is a reason for this marriage... However, it doesn't matter whether she knows about this kind of thing... (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to recommend it Tickets, monthly tickets, your support is my biggest motivation.)
