Nongmen Rice Flower Fragrance

Chapter 163 The Lantern Festival

Early the next morning, Second Madam Ling came to the mansion again to say hello to Old Madam Ling. Although the second master of the Ling family has another house now, the two families still have to spend the New Year together.

So, early in the morning, Mrs. Ling came over with a pair of children, and also discussed with the old lady and Mrs. Wang about the New Year.

When the end of the year came, the school would not go to school anymore, and the Ling family's sisters and Li Xin would also be free.These days, Li Xin and Ling Feifei are always by Songhetang's side.

"Cousin, Sister Feifei is here too!" Ling Wanyu smiled and sat down beside Li Xin.

"Okay, you kids go out and play! It's boring to be here all the time." Mrs. Ling waved her hand and asked Li Xin to take Ling Wanyu and Ling Feifei outside to play.Young girls always sit like this, and they really can't sit still.

Li Xin also stood up and took Ling Wanyu and Ling Feifei out.Ling Zijia also went out to look for Ling Ziye in the study in the front yard.In the few days until the end of the year, everyone will celebrate the new year, even the Ling's shop is temporarily closed, Ling Ziye is also temporarily free, and these days are almost at home.

"Cousin, can I go to your place to play!" Ling Wanyu asked with a smile after leaving the Songhe Hall.

"Okay!" Li Xin took the two of them to Caixia Pavilion.The scenery of Caixia Pavilion is still very good, and the layout is very exquisite.A row of green calyx plums are planted on the edge of the courtyard, with pure white petals and green calyxes. The green calyx sets off the pure white petals, which has a very special beauty.Although they are such obviously different colors, they are so harmonious when put together, it is as natural as it is, and it is amazingly beautiful.

The plum tree has been planted for many years, and it is very tall. Several plum branches protrude from the wall. The green buds and snow-white petals are really beautiful.

Not all green calyx plums have such green flower buds, which is considered a very good variety.

From a distance, you can smell a unique plum fragrance mixed with a touch of cold air, very fresh.

"My cousin's plum blossoms are really blooming here." Ling Wanyu said with a smile.In fact, she is not very familiar with the house here, after all, when she was born, she was in the office of her father, and she didn't go back to the capital very much when she was young.She had to grow up a little before her mother would bring her back to the capital.

When she was able to come back, the Ling family separated, and their second room left the old house and lived in the house on the east side.Even if he came back to the capital, he would still live in his own house. He would come over to say hello to his grandmother, but he didn't live here.I haven't visited this house, so I'm not familiar with it.

"That's right! There are a lot of plum blossoms in the mansion, but if you want to talk about the green calyx plum blossoms, the ones from my cousin's place are the best and the purest in color." Ling Feifei also said with a smile.

After entering the courtyard, Li Xin took Ling Wanyu to look around.The area of ​​this yard is still very large, with many houses and a large courtyard.Flowers and trees are planted all over the courtyard, and there are still some trees with green leaves in this season, which is very gratifying to look at.It's just that many flowers and plants are not blooming in this season, and only plum blossoms are the best.

There are also two late-blooming wintersweet plants. At this time, the flowers have not withered, and there are still some scattered golden wintersweets hanging on the branches. Although they are about to bloom, the fragrance is still there, and the fragrance is overwhelming. , is also a very good scenery.

The weather was still cold, so the three of them didn't stay in the yard. Li Xin quickly brought them into the house.There is a charcoal stove in the house, which is very warm.

After entering the door, Li Xin made Caiyun serve fragrant tea and various refreshments.

"Sister Wanyu, can you stay longer this time?" Ling Feifei asked after sitting down.This cousin, in fact, generally speaking, she has not met a few times.After all, the second uncle's family rarely returned to the capital, so it was naturally not easy to see them.The second aunt would occasionally come back with her cousins, but they always came and went in a hurry, and would leave within a few days.

"I don't know! What my mother means is that my brother is not young anymore, and I want my brother to stay in the capital to go to school. After two years, it's time to look at some marriage affairs, so I want my grandmother and aunt to help me pay attention." I may stay for a few more days, but after the Lantern Festival at most, I will definitely have to leave. There is no one to take care of my father, and my mother is very worried." Ling Wanyu smiled.

It's rare to come back to the capital once, but she wants to stay longer.After all, the capital is so lively!No matter how good his father's tenure was, there was no such lively atmosphere.However, these still depend on how the mother decides. If the mother says she wants to leave, she will naturally not be able to insist on staying.

Although I really want to play in the capital, but ah!She also didn't want to be separated from her father forever.If she never sees her father, she will miss her too.

The best thing is that the couple can be transferred back to the capital, so that their family can move back to the capital.I heard from my mother that next year is the time for my father to return to Beijing to report on his work, and I don't know if my father can be transferred back!I still need the help of my uncle's family to make connections. After all, my father has been outside for many years, and he doesn't know many people in the official circles of the capital.

"It would be nice to spend the Lantern Festival in the capital! The annual lantern festival in the capital is very interesting."

"I also heard that the lantern festival in Beijing is very interesting, but I haven't seen it once! In previous years! After the new year, my mother will be busy going back. Sister Feifei, can you go out to see it every year?"

"Actually, I only watched it once. When I was young, my father and mother wouldn't let me go out with me. I only went to see it once at the beginning of this year. It was very lively. I don't know if it will be possible this year." Going out." Ling Feifei looked forward to it.In this family, it is not easy to go out, that is, only occasionally.

Even if you go out, you must have something to do, so you can't just run around.Sometimes, when my mother went to the temple to offer incense, she would take her sisters with her, but it was very boring to go.There are always many servants following up, but it is not convenient to go anywhere.

The same goes for going to the Lantern Festival. My father and mother are afraid that they will get lost, so they are always watched by people to prevent them from running around, that is, to go out to play, but they don't have much freedom.However, the Lantern Festival is really lively and interesting.Even without freedom, it's still fun.I just don’t know if I can watch it again!
"If we really live until after the Lantern Festival, I will ask my mother to allow me to hang out with you. If my mother disagrees, my cousin and sister Feifei will help me to talk!" Ling Wanyu pulled Li Xin and Ling Feifei.

"Okay, if Second Aunt doesn't agree, I'll help persuade her. But, cousin, don't expect too much, Second Aunt may not listen to me!" Li Xin said with a smile.It seems that children like to have fun!The Lantern Festival is so lively, but it is hard for children to refuse.The Lantern Festival in Beijing is really lively, but I didn't take a good look at it last time.

She suddenly remembered the last Lantern Festival, and wondered if she had misread that sudden glance?
If it is wrong, but it is so true.If it was true, how could it be that in the blink of an eye, when she looked for it again, she couldn't find it anymore?

Is that person really still alive in this world?However, whether he was still alive seemed to have nothing to do with her.

Back then, she really wanted an answer, but now, with the passage of time, many years have passed, and many things seem to be gradually becoming unimportant.If she saw him again, she might still be excited, but that was all.

If possible, no matter whether he is still alive in this world or not, I hope I will never meet him again.The things of the previous life are over like this!After all, when you think about it, it was too long ago.

Many things in the previous life seem to have gradually become blurred.

"What is cousin thinking?" Seeing Li Xin in a daze, Ling Wanyu asked.

Li Xin came back to his senses suddenly, and said with a smile: "It's nothing, I just thought about the last lantern festival. If you go to the lantern festival, you'd better be careful. Last year, a lighthouse suddenly fell down! If it happened to fall on It’s dangerous on a human body.”

"I didn't see it, but I heard people said that a lighthouse really fell down. Fortunately, a big brother appeared, and I'm not afraid that people will be burned." Ling Feifei said.

"Is it true that someone came out to save someone?" Li Xin asked.Is there really such a person?Was what she saw really not her own hallucination?Did that person really show up? ,

"Yes! I heard people say that he is a big brother like a fairy! However, I didn't see it, I just heard people say it."

"Last year, my cousin was also watching the lanterns in the capital? That's really a coincidence. If my cousin had met us at that time, maybe we would have known each other a long time ago!" It turns out that my cousin has been to the capital before?However, no one in the family met, otherwise, maybe my cousin would have found her long ago.

"That's right! I spent the New Year in the capital last year, and my younger siblings were with me too." Li Xin smiled.Unexpectedly, it has been two years since I came to this world, but I have not been able to celebrate the New Year at home every time!Last year, I spent the New Year at Sun's family, but this year I'm still in the capital.

In the blink of an eye, I have lived in the capital for several months.

"Then where did my cousin spend the year last year?"
"It's at the Sun's house! It's the Sun's house that opened the Pinxiang Pavilion. I have something to go to the Sun's house. I came to the capital a few years ago, so I spent the New Year at the Sun's house by the way."
